Well I've been
Running round this globe for a coupla spins now
Grown from school days, the outcast from the in crowd
I keep my chin down, as time flies and seasons vanish
Hold the self belief to manage grip and seize my canvas
Paint the colour that connects with me and speaks my language
Try to release my baggage, be free to relieve the anguish
When it's freezing cold, feel the warmth between my toes
Of this earth I walk, creation is what feeds my soul
It can ease the load, climbing on the steepest road
So I preach this ode,
to remind myself to keep control
When it's all too much and I dive to free fall
I try to centre myself at the centre of life's see-saw
I crave the fun times, the sunshine entices
Of wandering temptation, and unwind my vices
From the drugs to the girls and the beers I'm drinking
And remember what's at stake, staring in the mirror thinking
Well I've been down this road before
It's been one hell of a ride
The challenge is to balance on that fine line
Between the earth and sky
And I will wait for the morning sun
Till the way is clear as day
Well ok, hallelujah
Now watch me take the stage
Oh a oh
Oh a oh
Oh a oh, yeah
Oh a oh
It's the hunt for the high, the people I've met, the places I've seen (ohh)
The stories I've told, the forks in the road, chasing my dream (woahh)
On the brink, stop and think, I'm telling you dreams don't cost a thing
I know we all die alone, but I feel faith within that cosmic link
I surf the starlight where every wish is worthy
Only happy when you've got it often makes you miss the journey
Coincide with chemistry, flow and ride my energy
We'll grow our grass greener than that other side will ever be
The man on the mic, the rose on my drum kit
Happy with my reflection even though I've done dumb shit
And sometimes I think of stuff, keen to get that instant rush
Feigning for that pick me up, that's probably why I drink too much
It's not the feeling of the high when you're running round
It's the friends that you find when you're coming down
From smooth sailing, to foggy rocky roads
I won't be faked by my reflection like that dog that dropped his bone
Well I've been down this road before
It's been one hell of a ride
The challenge is to balance on that fine line
Between the earth and sky
And I will wait for the morning sun
Till the way is clear as day
Well ok, hallelujah
Now watch me take the stage
Oh a oh
Oh a oh
Oh a oh
Oh a oh
Oh a oh
Oh a oh
Oh a oh
