Visions

I got a vision of another life

I walked the trails up two mental flights

And could feel what freedom feels like

I listen closely where the shadow lies

So I don't fall for it

I got a vision of another life

One where the mornings never seem to bite

And overthinking never sees the light

And all my troubles turn to butterflies

'Cause I don't fall for it

Daddy was no preacher

He sung in a choir

Dreamin' up a different life

Oh my father told me

Livin' for the money

Ain't the way to lead your life

And be free

Sink into the melody

Give into the mystery

Take a minute and the stars do align

And be free

No one's gonna free your mind

Never been a better time

To take the bad and kiss it goodbye

I took the J up to the city lights

Looked out the window at the passers by

And I wonder what their life is like

Do all my worries ever cross their minds

Or is it just me?

Can we even call it livin' life

When we zig and zag from left to right

And the weekend comes we feel all right

And all the things I gotta do I fight

Because it's all on me

Mama always told me

Love don't feed the hungry

Life's a field of flowers and thorns

Work hard for the honey

And hang on tight to somethin'

Rainbows always follow storms

And be free

Sink into the melody

Give into the mystery

Take a minute and the stars do align

And be free

No one's gonna free your mind

Never been a better time

To take the bad and kiss it goodbye

Mama always told me (hmm...)

Mama always told me (hmm...)

Mama always told me (gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get)

Mama always told me

Gotta get out, gotta get out, gotta get

Free

Sink into the melody

Give into the mystery

Take a minute and the stars do align

And be free

No one's gonna free your mind

Never been a better time

To take the bad and kiss it goodbye

Daddy always told me

There's never been a better time

To kiss it goodbye
