Seize The Time - Elaine Brown
Tell me that the sun belongs
To you and should surround you
But when I turn to look
I see they've snatched
The sun from all around you
Why you hardly seem
To want what's yours
You hardly seem to care
If you love the sun
It's where you've come from
Then you had better dare
To seize the time
The time is now
Oh seize the time
And you know how
You tell me that the soul is real
And your soul must survive
Yet I see they've taken liberties
With your souls and your lives
Don't tell me that you lack concern
For all that you must be
'Cause I know you know
You must not be turned
And I know that you can see
To seize the time
The time is now
Oh seize the time
And you know how
You worry about liberty
Because you've been denied
Well I think that you're mistaken
Or then you must have lied
'Cause you do not act
Like those who care
You've never even fought
For the liberty you claim to lack
Or have you never thought
To seize the time
The time is now
Oh seize the time
And you know how
