Sitting on a keg of powder of my worries and beliefs
Under candlelight a vision of the path ahead of me
And I'll write a letter to myself from yesterday
Pushing on the same old string from which my world hangs
Surrender to a piece of mind, free from chains of starry eyes for
The self-determination
You'll never get word from above, blinded by the cloudy skies but
It's not that way forever
Self-endowed with eagle feathers from the distance I have come
Safely knowing that I found out, I found out who I was
No longer shouting in the darkness, I got something to say
It's ok to be another settler on the trail
Surrender to a piece of mind, free from chains of starry eyes for
The self-determination
You'll never get word from above, blinded by the cloudy skies but
It's not that way forever
Let the wisdom here guide me that I've written with this ink
Step back into all the confidence of who I'm meant to be
It's a feeling of belief, and I'll end this letter someday you will see
Surrender to a piece of mind, free from chains of starry eyes for
The self-determination
You'll never get word from above, blinded by the cloudy skies but
It's not that way forever
It's not that way forever
It's not that way forever
