In This Life

If we can know the places that we've been
Then we can hold the future times within
All we need is faith and seeds and mama's world, she spins

Everything to its own little place
We're all allowed to take a bit of space
And I am proud but I am grounded let's make this home safe

How about we try to take it slow?
You ever tried to watch an oak tree grow?
Those ancient kings of crowns and rings that keep Time as he goes

In this life
We can't stand by
Mama cries
Mama cries
And no one else but you can heed the call
So write that down and put it on your wall

This modern world is all made out of sand
Crumbles in a stiff wind, barely stands
They expect us to respect the law, but not the land...?

We've all got dreams of lives that never were
We're all obliged to honor our own hurt
We can heal the busted wheel that turns this whole damn Earth

Gratitude's like rain on thirsty hills
I'm thankful for the sweetness and the thrills
Who'da guessed we'd be so blessed but come what may, what will

In this life
We can't stand by
Mama cries
Mama cries
And no one else but you can heed the call
So write that down and put it on your wall

In this life
We can't stand by
Mama cries
Mama cries
And no one else but you can heed the call
So write that down and put it on your wall
