Absolute Reality Lyrics by The Alarm

Strength

[Intro]
One, two
Hey, now, now
Hey, hey, hey
[Verse 1]
You may be rich, you may be poor
You may have nothing in this world at all
You may be Black, you may be White
You may be a prisoner in your own times
You may have love, you may have hate
You may be the president of the United States
But even you, you can't sit and hide
While the world's resources die
[Chorus]
This is absolute reality, reality, reality
We are all the cause, the solution to reality
Oh
[Post-Chorus]
Hey, now, now
Hey, hey, hey
[Verse 2]
You may be in control, you may be controlled
You may stay down to do as you're told
You may work hard, you may never work at all
You may be accused but you don't know what for
You may be innocent or partly to blame
You may just be afraid in this power-mad age
But there's one thing we all must find
Some peace in our time
[Chorus]
This is absolute reality, reality, reality
If I may speak of truth, this is absolute reality
The absolute time, the absolute place
The absolute now for the absolute solution
It's absolute reality now
Now, now, now
This is absolute reality, reality, reality
This is absolute reality, reality, reality
This is absolute, oh, reality
Oh
[Outro]
Oh
La-la-la-la-la
This is absolute
La-la-la-la-la
Reality
La-la-la-la-la
This is absolute
Reality
