Shadow in the Light Lyrics by Dialectrix

The Cold Light of Day

2013

[Verse 1]
Yeah, yeah, uh, uh
Wear the shadow [?] like me so you can see my vision
Outline a source of portrait definition
I'm put on this planet to paint you my personal picture
Intertwined with rhythm till it's hasta la vista
I'll break it down just like a scene from CSI
Cause I think truth and have a need to speak my mind
I hold a wish that more people realised
And saw through ugliness like Steve Buscemi's Eyes
We get demon eyes and come to jealousy
Political wars, crimes, drugs, felonies
I gain chills but skin bumps to melodies
While the window winds was sweeter than the soft smell of spring

[Hook]
Not all good, not all bad
Yo I see through the vision of man
(It's the yin and the yang)
Not all good, not all bad
Yo I'm thankful for freedom I have
(Yes the freedom I have)
Yeah, nah, it's not all good and then
Yeah, nah, it's not all bad, ok?
The shadow and light, the shadow in the light now
The shadow and light, the shadow in the light now

[Bridge]
Sun shine the light that I see
Bright in the dark like night and lightning
Come from vision my eyes providing
But man can't see when he blinded by greed

[Bridge]
Our sun shine the light that I see
Bright in the dark like night and lightning
Come from vision my eyes providing
But man can't see when he blinded by greed

[Verse 2]
Yeah, yo, yo, yo, yo
A dystopia woke from exposure
Camera mind document it when focused
This corrosive human implosion
Building [past ?] sever is still growing
Big numbers climb like cliff jumpers
It's hard to ignore control and injustice
Simplistic pleasures hide a swift judgement
Spliff, Dr. Pepper, sushi or Mythbusters
From our day to day life decisions
Religious indifference, conflict of the spirit
Colourful souls kaleidoscopic world visions
We still can't deny the beauty living within a jar

[Hook]
Not all good, not all bad
Yo I see through the vision of man
(It's the yin and the yang)
Not all good, not all bad
Yo I'm thankful for freedom I have
(Yes the freedom I have)
Yeah, nah, it's not all good and then
Yeah, nah, it's not all bad, ok?
The shadow and light, the shadow in the light now
The shadow and light, the shadow in the light now

[Hook]
Not all good, not all bad
Yo I see through the vision of man
(It's the yin and the yang)
Not all good, not all bad
Yo I'm thankful for freedom I have
(Yes the freedom I have)
Yeah, nah, it's not all good and then
Yeah, nah, it's not all bad, ok?
The shadow and light, the shadow in the light now
The shadow and light, the shadow in the light now
