Healing the wounded soul. Breaking the chain of generational trauma. Staying grounded and focused on the beauty that lies ahead.
lyrics
They passed it on, don’t want to pass it on to you.
All my life
I wonder why the pain controls my stride
Then you ask, “Why can’t you be true?”
We walked along the desert road
The Sun behind going toward the goal.
Our bodies ache, more than ever before
I grip your hand, you kicked the sand
And said, "Goddamn you drain my soul.”
We wake up in the morning
With our lips so chapped and dry
Your tears are the only source of water
So I try to catch the cries.
We put them in a spoon and fly
Off into the desert moon…..
We benefit from the rain above
Dedicate unconditional love
Toward our seed and the growing trees
We wish the water would let them breathe.
We hold our breath and relieve the stress
You softly whisper and ask, "Don't you feel blessed?
We’re staring at the beaming sun
The wind is blowing all the dust off all of us
Finally feeling clean
All the scars can now be seen.
We wake up in the morning
With our lips so chapped and dry
Your tears are the only source of water
So I try to catch the cries.
We put them in a spoon and light the fire until we fly
Off into the desert moon…..
