She is twenty-five, spent over half of her life   So afraid to speak her mind, it's such a shame   'Cause oh what a brilliant mind she has      And now that she's been introduced to confidence   She doesn't see that she is bordering on arrogance   When will she learn to come back to the middle?      He is a young black man, grew up without his father   And now it falls into his hands, to protect his mother   'Cause if he doesn't, well then who will?   His older brother, he lives in fear   Of everything, especially, tryin' to fill his father's shoes      Respectively they go to extremes of masculine and feminine   Chasing dreams but they keep on falling   'Cause they don't know no balance   When will they learn to come back to the middle?      You gotta take the good with the bad and you might hit the wall   Sometimes you'll fly and sometimes you will fall   There ain't no way to avoid the pain   But it's getting burned that's how you will learn   To come back to the middle   Come back to the middle      Needing to protect your self now that is just a part of life   If you let your fears keep you from flying   You will never reach your height   To get to the top you must come back to the middle   When will we learn to come back to the middle?   When will we learn?      Come back to the middle   Come back to the middle   Come back to the middle, yeah   Don't make no mind about fallin' down   'Cause it's when you're in that valley   You can see both sides more clearly      Come back to the middle   Come back to the middle   Come back to the middle   ...
