All I Want, All I Need

written by Clifton J. Williams

All that I want and all that I need
All that I want, and all that I need

Well the time it takes for one life to get up out and on it’s way
Do the things it wants, feel the things it needs and all else it dreams
It will never compare down to the other side
Where the needs and the wants are only to survive

All that I want and all that I need
All that I want, and all that I need

Even the mold it gets old underneath the hands as they turn
The grays come to tear us down, and like a tree we’ll burn
A smile some people chase, for others it’s the best car
Some seek true love and some will hide from who they are
But not me, not me today
No, not me today

Breathe in this breath that’s given
Forget these things and give in
To the one that breaks you because all you need
Come here up on the bright side
Look down and you’ll see your insides
We’ll burn it all because all you need
Is love

At 59% of the time everybody knows evil
Don’t tell me you can see the places but you can’t see those people
Cause I can see you there
Pretending to be the one who cares

All that I want is nothing that I really need
But the devil deep inside, he seems to disagree he says
“Go get the ones, go save the funds, forget everyone who’s in your way.
Guard it all and save it for yourself and take it to your grave.”
But not me, not me today
No not me today

Breathe in this breath that’s given
Forget these things and give in
To the one that breaks you because all you need
Come here up on the bright side
Look down and you’ll see your insides
We’ll burn it all cause all you need is love
All you need is love
