Believer

(album: Over The Horizon Radar - 2022)

It's on my mind, don't wanna be a loser
In my thoughts I'm on a ship of fools
Gonna jump the rails and head for different waters
Find me an island, make my own rules
I'm nobody's fool

On my way to a safer haven
At least that's what I believe it to be
Accelerating away from coldness
Getting closer to remedy

I grew up in a narrow deep valley
Majestic mountains everywhere you look
A perfect setting to be growing dreamers
But life can turn when you think it's good
This is a message from a man in the middle
Just a song to tell you it's all right
Did they box you in and categorize you?
Face your demons and put up a fight

I'm a believer
I'm a roller
I'm a retriever
A soul controller
I'm a rocker

I've crawled ashore on the beaches of deserts
I took the burning of a killing sun
Walked for miles and the mirage was blinding
My sanctuary an illusion spun
Hard to breathe on love without money
So we play the game to overcome
Vultures and dragons, they hover like shadows
Raptorial eyes that keep you on the run
Cuts and bruises in the heart of a warrior
Another story of destiny
Still see my life in a new situation
Opening shut doors miraculously

I'm a believer
I'm a roller
I'm a retriever
A soul controller
I'm a rocker

I'm a believer
I'm a roller
I'm a retriever
A soul controller, yeah

I'm a believer
I'm a driver
I'm a retriever
A soul survivor, oh yeah
