I was sinking in the water, I saw death there
I gave in, took a breath, it was fresh air
Woke up by the sycamore in a deck chair
With my girl's head gently resting on my chest hair
Saw my family walking while the sun is rising
Parents looking proud cus they see that their son is smiling
I seen violence, I seen fighting, I seen giants
Trees rising, seen seas shining, I... F*ck
If I slip then I keep trying
I keep climbing I'm defiant, I dream vibrant
From the ashes of a wicker man, I rise then I breathe fire
I beat tyrants, use these beats to defeat sirens
As the fires swell
And the ceiling fell
I say farewell
To the man I was
The waves crash inside
Water starts to rise
So I say goodbye
To the man I was
From a man to a gladiator
Life might stab you in the back, incapacitate ya
But you stand tall, bleeding in this grand hall
Embrace the weight of the water when the dam falls
We're just shadows on a sundial
In the shade of the trees we can run wild
Life rushing fast, someone let this man breathe
Love is found in the gaps of the stampede
If this the last song I ever wrote
Let the message help replenish hope
The best fruit has the shadow of decay
The ripeness a reminder, all we ever have's today
From a dying emperor slowly rising to his throne
To a child taking early, cancer eating at their bones
We exist for a moment then we melt into the snow
Know our last ever thoughts will always be of home
As the fires swell
And the ceiling fell
I say farewell
To the man I was
The waves crash inside
Water starts to rise
So I say goodbye
To the man I was
