He woke up next to a tiny deer
With sparklin’ eyes & pointy ears
She didn’t know what she wanted
Or how to get it
He knew if he kissed her
He’d probably regret it
But we’re all like children
We’re alll like warriors
We’re all beginners
And we’re all pioneers
We can take what we want
But we’ll get what we need
We ask for a garden
We’re given the seeds
She took what she wanted
It was more than she needed
She bid farewell
Before there was bleedin’
There will always be another bird
Of the same feather
One foot will move in front of the other
Happy is the way we plan our ever after
Straight lines can’t get any flatter
Some glad morning when this life is o’er,
I’ll fly away;
To a home on God’s celestial shore,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away).
I’ll fly away, Oh Glory
I’ll fly away; (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away).
When the shadows of this life have gone,
I’ll fly away;
Like a bird from prison bars has flown,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away)
I’ll fly away, Oh Glory
I’ll fly away; (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away).
Just a few more weary days and then,
I’ll fly away;
To a land where joy shall never end,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away)
I’ll fly away, Oh Glory
I’ll fly away; (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away
Subjected to a culture
Where accepted common fact
That a previous wrong doing
Can then justify an act
Of charged retaliation
Do you really think youre helping
This culture of apathy is a shame
So hit someone in the face,
Yeah that means that you are even
Kick their ass!
Make ém pay!
Yeah that means that youre on top
What’s the logic in this culture
Whats it mean when you are even
Apathy is the poison
Now that you’re on top
Do you really think you’re equal
When you retaliate
Do you think that they’ll accept your view
When you perpetuate
An everlasting viscious cycle
Look what you’ve created
An imbalance in the energy
A demon that is HATE
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Feel the beat & find your feet
Upon the Earth, stong, connected
Drawing strength from the dirt below
Drawing wisdom from the Eagle
Wisdom from the Crow
We ask for the answers we already know
We are open, we are closed
We are the garden
We are the hose
We stand alone, we are supported
There is abundance, we are resourceful
We take the time, we move quickly
We are active, we are still
We love the calm
We live for the thrill
We give all we have, we take what we can
We are the Force, we cannot be broken
Seeds are planted
With each word spoken
We are our Truths, we hold them dear
We are given courage & hands to steer
When we learn to listen, our spirits glisten
We find restoration, we seek preservation
We are our own God, we are nothing at all
We are humble, we are small
We are noble, we are tall
There is only one, the Sacred Whole
We are here to untangle, here to unfold
Every moment there is a choice
We dance to rhythm of our own voice
Find your rest in knowing
Your spirit is growing
Into the bird or the tree you were meant to be
Hold your ground, surrender
You trancend skin, you trancend gender
You’ve reached so hard just to find
You know nothing, you are blind
With this knowledge, you’re given a key
To the doors of perception, to the space between
This concept is simple if you let it be
The power in numbers begins with ONE, TWO & THREE
If you still hold confusion, fear or doubt
Just remember to listen
When you want to shout
A Mermaid Morning with Daniel Wandering Tree!
And now we’re off to the studio to lay some tracks down for my upcoming E.P.!
LOVE!
There once was a fairy
Who lived in a box
She boarded up her box
With imaginary locks
She has the wings of a Phoenix
And the tail of a fox
She makes her music on her pans and her pots
She goes dancin’ in the rain
Without her shoes
She swims in a puddle
of nothin’ to lose
She doesn’t grow up
She only grows down
She’ll take your pieces out
And she’ll mix ém all around
At night she whispers her wishes
Into her pillow
And in the winter
The snowflakes all compete to be her blanket
And now she’s met a big amazon
Who plays his brass baritone
He lives in a tree
Bigger than you and me
He feeds her peas and carrots
çause they help her see
You can take by force
The map and the coarse
But you must let the arrows
Point you to shore
Am I a flower or a seed?
Sometimes it’s just so confusing
Either way I need some Love
Maybe some water & some sun
The light of the sun
Shines so bright on everyone
Tries so hard to get to us
Thru the pollution & the dust
If you love to see the sparrow
Up in the sky
Cherish the wind
That sets it to flight
Am I a flower or a seed?
Sometimes it’s just so confusing
Either way I need some Love
Maybe some water & some sun
Point me to shore
‘çause I’m not quite sure
