Shades of White - Minimal Effort Lyrics

Finding yourself, creating the challenge
Immersing within, no sense of balance
Inventing the scene where all can see
That you're the one who can run things single handedly

Take the credit, It's what you deserve
Enjoy the plaudits
It's what you have strived for

Hey, I need some control
I don't want this role
It's not something I'd aspired to
No, I this is not my cause
I seek no reward
Just wanna keep my head down

My choice was made long ago
When my head became so vacant
I lost my sense of self
So I've made my peace
Minimal Effort required

Flying high, seizing the moment
Making waves writing protocols
Running on empty, it's what you do
First in, last out, it's what's become expected of you

Take the credit, only while you can
Enjoy the plaudits, 'cause they ain't going to last

Hey, I need some control
I don't want this role
It's not something I'd aspired to
No, I this is not my cause
I seek no reward
Just wanna keep my head down

My choice was made long ago
When my head became so vacant
I lost my sense of self
So I've made my peace
Minimal Effort required
My choice was made oh so long ago
I've made my peace
Minimal effort required

You've made your bed, go lie in it
Whose to blame?
Were you so blind could you not see
You took your chance, you did advance
Did you not?
Thought it was the answer to break free

I lost my way
Whose there to help me through
Help me please
Anyone please

My choice was made long ago
When my head became so vacant
I lost my sense of self
So I've made my peace
Minimal Effort required
My choice was made oh so long ago
I've made my peace
Minimal effort required

Minimise the sacrifice
Least required will be suffice
Don't be duped into working hard
Less is more, don't raise the card
My time, your time
Work time, home time
My space, your space
No space free space
Fine line, time line
No line, dead line
Minimal effort required
