Get my hands in the dirt
Do what it takes
Jump right in the make
And rip my shirt
Trying to live off the land
Without ever an empty hand
Then scrub the dirt from my nails
Jump in wild waters
While tides getting higher
If all else fails
Oh feet in the sand
Imbued senses first hand
Walking home with shovels
On broken shoulders
The road of million rocks
In the remedial moonlight
Reflecting on miles of water
Astral light
So much taller
Kept in sight
The dark followed our steps
We stopped at the resting place
The sun sank in the depths
Felt a soul without a face
A mystical statue, in place of departed
Looking to sea we've only just started
Gave me a sense of what it meant to be free
How will you know to live
Who you want to be
I'm learning to give
In the land
Of the free
Oh not the one you think
The one where I am me
These are the days of unending knowledge
Get out of your cage
Get straight and honest
Oh feel like a bird
When it's set free
Fly over the herd
From mountain to sea
Nothing and everything ahead of me
Only colors how life can be
Now rest your head get some sleep
Don't dream it up just let it all be
How will you know to live
Who you want to be
I'm learning to give
In the land
Of the free
Oh not the one you think
The one where I am me
