We Got Problems (But We're Doing OK)

Story Behind The Song

This is the introduction song to the album, explaining why in the world anyone would ever sit down and write an album full of "gay" songs. Why would someone want to draw that line? Because people need music that is for and of "their people." We all need some way to relate to our lives in a positive way and music can do that!!

Lyrics

Life goes on living with the ghosts of enormous wrongs
Trying just to cope in a messed up world
Where everything is laced with pain

Almost seems unbearable
Overwhelming and leaden with shame
Well it?s not impossible and it?s not so bad

Often times, it?s easy to get buried
Under the oppressions of the world
Homing in on all the little things that feed on negativity

And we need some unity
Yes, we need to express our thoughts
And we need to get together and agree to disagree
Equally

Seems like life gets a bit lackluster
In between the two extremities
But that?s why Man inherited the music

So join me in this exploration
Cause We Got Problems (But We?re Doing OK)
Even when the clouds darken the sky
The power of music is willing to give it a try

Life goes on living with the ghosts of enormous wrongs
Trying just to cope in a messed up world
Where everything is laced with pain

Almost seems unbearable
Overwhelming and leaden with shame
Well it?s not impossible and it?s not so bad
