NOW YOU KNOW BETTER (MGOB RMSTRD)(nauyunoubeta) MONDO GROSSO

Can you remember when you were just
6 years old
with a trusting heart accepting
everything youre told
anyone bigger must have been right
even if they were wrong
youd take what was given
you didnt know better
all your little mind could comprehend
was goodness and truth
even when the baddest things were
being done to you
aint it a shame how you pay
for your innocence
when you take what was given
you didnt know any betterbout

loving , cheating , people leaving
dying , and and living , losing and forgiving
growing , sayin no and , being who you are

What about the time when you became
16 years old
with an unsure heart believing
some of what youre told
wanting to be someone different ,
but theres pressure to be the same
so youd take what was given
you didnt know better
all that you could think about was
what you should or should not do
every single insecurity was magnified for you
and suddenly you began to feel all the contradictions
but youd take what was given
you didnt know betterbout

loving , cheating , people leaving
dying , living , losing and forgiving
growing , sayin no and , being who you are

Now here you are a little older than before
you really been through it and
you might go through some more
but if theres one precious thing youve learned ,
its that you cant just take what is given ,
cuz now you know betterbout

loving , cheating , people leaving
dying , and living , losing and forgiving
growing , sayin no and , being who you are

Now you , now you , now you know better
