Steven Paul "Steve" Jobs (/ˈdʒɒbz/; February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) was an American information technology entrepreneur and inventor. He was the co-founder, chairman, and chief executive officer (CEO) of Apple Inc.; CEO and largest shareholder of Pixar Animation Studios; a member of The Walt Disney Company's board of directors following its acquisition of Pixar; and founder, chairman, and CEO of NeXT Inc. Jobs is widely recognized as a pioneer of the microcomputer revolution of the 1970s, along with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. Shortly after his death, Jobs's official biographer, Walter Isaacson, described him as the "creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing."
Adopted at birth in San Francisco, and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area during the 1960s, Jobs's countercultural lifestyle was a product of his time. As a senior at Homestead High School in Cupertino, California, his two closest friends were the older engineering student (and Homestead High alumnus) Wozniak and his countercultural girlfriend, the artistically inclined Homestead High junior Chrisann Brennan. Jobs briefly attended Reed College in 1972 before dropping out, deciding to travel through India in 1974 and study Buddhism.
If what you want is out of sight, and all thats there is black and white,
Its easier to choose the wrong path.
But if you choose to believe, a painting your life can be,
With a light on youll see, color right on.
And with it, will be the life that we want,
Without it, we will throw away what we got,
So we will, so we will, not give in.
CHORUS
When we fall from our dreams its hard to pick ourselves up,
But its all in our heads; its all in our heads!
When we think theres nothing left, its hard to convince ourselves,
That its all in our heads, its all in our heads!
No when you fall in to this hell, theres others here, you just cant tell.
And like you, theyre all needing help.
But if theres still room to breath, then hope will show you the way,
To a new world where light, will surround you.
And with it, will be the life that we want,
Without it, we will throw away what we got,
So we will, so we will, not give in.
CHORUS
So, just believe, and we will feel, so alive,
And we will find the perfect way to survive.
Then we will be, so in love,
With the lives, that once has us, in denial.
CHORUS
If what you want is out of sight, and all thats there is black and white,
Its easier to choose the wrong path.
But if you choose to believe, a painting your life will be,
