"Relative" lyrics
A flashlight
Isn't quite sunlight
But any light at all seems bright
When you're looking in the dark
A wet dream
Isn't the real thing
It isn't really anything
But at least it makes a spark (Yes it dos)
And all is relative, relative
Everything is relative, yes it is
It's all about the way we receive it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood, and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
Pre-made isn't quite home made
But pre-made with a home name
Is almost just the same
Your girlfriend
Isn't your best friend
But any friend is best when
You're freezing in the rain
And all is relative, relative
Everything is relative, yes it is
It's all about the way we receive it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood, and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
You're either underweight or you're unfit
Overdressed or under-zipped
Too social or you're just too shy
Too depressed or you're too high
Night to day, and day to night
Rich to poor to black or white
All is relative
Everything is relative
All is relative
It's all about the way we receive it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood, and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
It's all about the way we receive it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood, and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
All is relative
Everything is relative
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Everything is relative
All is relative
You care
Isn't quite sunlight
But any light at all seems bright
When you're looking in the dark
A wet dream
Isn't the real thing
It isn't really anything
But at least it makes a spark (Yes it dos)
And all is relative, relative
Everything is relative, yes it is
It's all about the way we receive it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood, and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
Pre-made isn't quite home made
But pre-made with a home name
Is almost just the same
Your girlfriend
Isn't your best friend
But any friend is best when
You're freezing in the rain
And all is relative, relative
Everything is relative, yes it is
It's all about the way we receive it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood, and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
You're either underweight or you're unfit
Overdressed or under-zipped
Too social or you're just too shy
Too depressed or you're too high
Night to day, and day to night
Rich to poor to black or white
All is relative
Everything is relative
All is relative
It's all about the way we receive it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood, and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
It's all about the way we receive it
How much we believe it
Depending on the life you lead, if you lead it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
And if you pick the threads in your closet, the cash in your wallet
The color of the skin in your blood, and how you got it
Compare it to yourself
Compared to someone else, you care
All is relative
Everything is relative
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Everything is relative
All is relative
You care
