Limitless
[Intro: Charlie Chaplin The Great Dictator Speech]
Greed has poisoned men's souls
Has barricaded the world with hate
Has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed
We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in
Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want
Our knowledge has made us cynical
Our cleverness hard and unkind
We think too much, and feel too little
More than machinery, we need humanity
More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness
Without these qualities life will be violent
And all will be lost
Soldiers, don't give yourselves to brutes
Men who despise you, enslave you
Who regiment your lives
Tell you what to do, what to think, and what to feel
Who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder
[Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men
Machine men, with machine minds and machine hearts](10219087)
You are not machines
You are not cattle
You are men
In the seventeenth chapter of Saint Luke it is written
“The kingdom of God is within man”
Not one man, nor a group of men, but in all men
In you, you the people
You the people have the power
The power to create machines
The power to create happiness
You the people have the power

[Verse 1: Nick Vig]
They always tell me never, never, never let the sky limit you
Get what you deserve but don't let those highs finish you
Just a poet with a dream just so heroic though it seems
All those things that never matted always trying to come between
Oh but I'm past that, oh yeah yeah but I'm past that
Oh baby girl bring that ass back
We on that set thats the model
Recreate your own path watch the other people follow
I bit off more than I could swallow
Only because I'm hungry and my stomach hollow
Can you blame me?
I've been on my grind nine to nine am I crazy?
No, I just think this music shit could save me i'm gone boy

[Hook: Freshlyground]
Would you recognize it's a need I've been fighting for so long?
Would you recognize it's a hunger only you can fill?
What do I do with all these feelings warming me up inside?
What do I do with all these precious hours dreaming of you at night?
Would you recognize it's a need I've been fighting for so long?
Would you recognize it's a hunger only you can fill?
Ohhhh, ohh, ohh

[Verse 2: Nick Vig]
1999 was the year that I started
Started writed poems not knowing what to call it
Five years later went and got my first phone
A Blackberry filled up with hoes from my home
Feeling all alone so I wrote my first song
No one ever cared so I did it on my own
But now that I'm grown I've excelled I've prevailed
Now everyone bail cause I'm living it for real
I'm limitless I feel like a dog
I told my brother he could quit when I'm on
Word is gone
I'm a inspiration to many
My pen is never empty
I could never be selfish
The lord would never let me
(he would never let me, yeah)
(limitless)

[Outro: Freshlyground & Charlie Chaplin The Great Dictator Speech]
Cause I'd like to call you sometime
I'd like you to need me one time
Ohhhh, ohhh, ohhh

In the seventeenth chapter of Saint Luke it is written
“The kingdom of God is within man”
Not one man, nor a group of men, but in all men
In you, you the people
You the people have the power
The power to create machines
The power to create happiness
You the people have the power to make this life free and beautiful
To make this life a wonderful adventure
Then in the name of democracy
Let us use that power
