Open Your Mind
Slums Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How can you be so lost
You're still regretting the love you left, left behind
Oh darling, I've seen you go through a change
Sitting alone each night
Are you expecting to find a love, love that's right
Darling open your eyes
Girl you'll never find a love that's right
Darling open your eyes
Let me show you the light
Girl you think you're so wise
There are times, when you'll need someone
I will be by your side
I'll take my chances before they pass, pass me by
Oh darlin', there is a light that shines, special for you and me
You need to look at the other side
You'll agree
Darling open your eyes
Let me show you the light
You may never find a love that's right
Darling open your eyes
Let me show you the light
You may never find a love that's right
Darling open your eyes
Let me show you the light
You may never find a love that's right
Darling open your eyes
Let me show you the light
Girl you think you're so wise
You may never find a love that's right
My sisters and mothers
Keep your eyes up to the sky
Higher, higher, higher

I lost my brother to a heroin addiction, I spent nine years in collins bay pen , couple years in the bucket , but we beefed in the pods cause he was doing drug , I called him a junky , man I love Jordan because I used to go in shopping malls fill up carts with food run out and run home to feed my brothers , I love my older bro too , I had no problem taking a Finn for him and my dad , I’m already going for so many years that I made a deal to plea a conspiracy charge , witch is the only charge they wanted on me , once I did that they dropped all charges against them . The guys talking about being in the bin . Real life man . This guy is an artist.
