Lyrics for Silent Spirit
Woo Yeah, yeah, yeah And to my loved ones Who navigate the current of life Who occasionally, or regularly, feel rudderless in the river In this long night, there is no end Deep dominion, father be my friend I stand on the shoulders of mothers long dead, singing their stories Life is but a melody So be a leaf in a stream Eternally we return to cycle through the song we learn I would say don't be a musician, my son Be a doctor, lawyer, or a stand up citizen People on the street would stop and ask me if I'm proud But I'm not proud, you did it yourself, I wasn't around But time is pregnant with the past With the knowledge that they lost Time is eating its last meal If they listened, could they heal? ♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah And though I cannot hold you You will know my presence by virtue of the wind You know your daddy never knew what he was doing It's all love I love you I am wind, I am rain, I am photon, I am wave I am wind, I am rain, I am photon, I am wave I am love, trauma, pain reincarnate hurricane I have sinned, fanned the flames Knocking on the pearly gates ♪
