way down in my bones
way down, somewhere deep
theres an ember of my father
like a blacksmith that I keep
whos words are like a steady rhythm
a hammer, beat, beat, beating, a big drum
a wild spark, that comforts in every kind of dark
that beckons me out of my soul slumber,
'Become'
No stone but this guides me, no millstone holds me back,
these words a foundation, like a mountain against the thunders crack
the woods of life I've been lost in
the unmarked trails I roved
where grass and flowers grew against all lost hopes
and/among the clear unknown rivers that I dove.
way down in my bones
whos words are like a steady drum
no stone but this guides me
I will not be ruled by someones thumb
a whisper in my memory
overcome
overcome
overcome.
Wherever I go, you are there
The man you are, I will
Become.
