Pursuit of Happiness

Surrender to your senses
Indulge in your desires
The need to have it all is the flame that feeds your fire
Determined to obtain
Programmed to receive
Your heart has hardened
Your soul has been deceived
Searching for the things that will make your life complete
You never learned from the past
It is you they will defeat
For this pursuit you will suffer the cost
Suffer the loss
Is the victory worth the loss?
Or will you let yourself destroy you for the chance to have it all?
Or will you firmly stand and from yourself demand the joy that comes from within?
I know you're scared
I know the pain inside
I know you're lonely
I know the tears you've cried
Determined to obtain
Programmed to receive
Your heart has become hardened
Your soul has become deceived
Searching for the things that will make your life complete
