Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
And to my loved ones
Who navigate the currents of life and who, occasionally or regularly
Feel rudderless in the river
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Life is but an eddy
So be a leaf in a stream
Eternally, we return to cycle through the song we learnt
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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?
[Verse 5]
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
[Chorus]
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
