Manifesto II

(アルバム： Dark As Night - 2013)

What shall live? What shall die?
What gave birth, What gave life?
What is yours? What is mine? What is ours?
Are these questions so senseless
Well, who's gonna answer them
At the time when I really need to know

So let it carry you like the ocean
When you first learned how to float
So I went to papa's grave and I burned him some sage
I said, "Thank you, but I ain't never gonna know ya"
I said, "Thank you but I ain't never gonna know ya"

No potential has limit
With ultimate forgiveness
You can try it on, try it out for size
I lost touch with myself, with my woman, my health
My god, and my perception too

Well I will always be a part of that darkness
Although I'd say it's pretty equal to my light
I'm pretty far from knowing anything
But I do know a couple things
What I want and how I'm gonna get it
What I want and how I'm gonna get it (that's fucking right!)

Destiny you can't control
That's cool, I work better alone
Give me space, give me some good air to breathe
I suppose that's what we all want
Our own slice to go off on
And believe whatever the fuck you wanna believe

Well I will never know all of the answers
Although I'd never wanna know anyway
Cause I remember when grandma died
She had no tears in her eyes
She was laughing and raising hell

Yeah she was laughing and raising hell
(fuck yeah she was!)

There's a river in the wind
I've floated it before
There's a sliver in your grin
I know who it is for
And there is magic in the skin
Of the woman I adore
Know each other to the core
So thankful

And there are four tides in a sea
There are carbon copies
They are built like you and me
So crazy
Don't be afraid to make mistakes
Being human can be great
No matter what is on your plate
Be grateful

And I am ready for the war
Maybe it's coming, it's not for sure
But it has come before
So maybe
We can end all this pursuit
Find contentment in the truth
Find out what's gonna work for you
And try it out out out
Try it out out out
