The Fountain by Dextro Lyrics
[Chorus:]
1.I drink from the fountain it keeps me from breaking down
2.We all got our own shit plus we all got our crown
3.Peace surronds unbound its for the love of this music
4.However you wanna use it abuse it don't confuse it
5.Man I lose it when the instrumental plays
6.Steady improvement kind of miss that mental daze
7.Its much easier but now my life has got a purpose
8.Its never perfect
[Verse 1:]
1.Trying to remain on the level I'm doing battle with my devils
2.Mind is racing kinda quick I gotta find a way to settle
3.And mellow out the thoughts watch as reality bends
4.So now I'm walking in the rain the strain it never ends
5.And the pain I can't pretend it doesn't exist resist that lie
6.Found a new path too my goal now I dwell up in the sky
7.Yes I may get high may just sip a couple beers
8.Moving through the years but now I hear this shit calling
9.Addiction takes its place now I can feel it all falling
10.Down I keep sinking thinking theres gotta be more
11.So I explore many avenues to open up that door
12.To reveal the sort of force that allows me to shift
13.Back to a time when I could appreciate this real gift
14.That I was given at my birth another chance on earth
15.So now I keep advancing until I'm riding in that hearse
16.On my way to return back to whats first
[Chorus:]
1.I drink from the fountain it keeps me from breaking down
2.We all got our own shit plus we all got our crown
3.Peace surronds unbound its for the love of this music
4.However you wanna use it abuse it don't confuse it
5.Man I lose it when the instrumental plays
6.Steady improvement kind of miss that mental daze
7.Its much easier but now my life has got a purpose
8.Its never perfect
Verse 2:
1.This time is ours you a real king or queen
2.Whether you 35 or 50 or a youth or teen
3.Lifes sort of like a balance beam so many gonna fall off
4.A loss a lost life thats worth living
5.Must be taking not giving some call it sinning or greed
6.More love is what we need but too many can't see
7.That anger is a cage and peace the key to be free
8.Gotta believe in more than one going for self just ain't right
9.Dawn break the cold night few may never see the light
10.But one mind at a time is the way too end the plight
11.So what we write might lift spirits and to me thats goal
12.Let loose what binds my soul complete control is whats needed
13.Believe it may just find me heavily weeded
14.Nah I never stay heated no need for a weapon
15.Realize life is a blessing so I'll never take anothers
16.Would rather see you as a brother
[Chorus: X2]
1.I drink from the fountain it keeps me from breaking down
