Nahko And Medicine For The People - Manifesto II lyrics

What shall live? What shall die? What gave birth, What gave life? What is yours? What is mine? What is ours? Are these questions so senseless Well, who's gonna answer them At the time when I really need to know So let it carry you like the ocean When you first learned how to float So I went to papa's grave and I burned him some sage I said, "Thank you, but I ain't never gonna know ya" I said, "Thank you but I ain't never gonna know ya" No potential has limit With ultimate forgiveness You can try it on, try it out for size I lost touch with myself, with my woman, my health My god, and my perception too Well I will always be a part of that darkness Although I'd say it's pretty equal to my light I'm pretty far from knowing anything But I do know a couple things What I want and how I'm gonna get it What I want and how I'm gonna get it (that's f**in' right!) Destiny you can't control That's cool, I work better alone Give me space, give me some good air to breathe I suppose that's what we all want Our own slice to go off on And believe whatever the f** you wanna believe Well I will never know all of the answers Although I'd never wanna know anyway Cause I remember when grandma died She had no tears in her eyes She was laughing and raising hell Yeah she was laughing and raising hell (f** yeah she was!) There's a river in the wind I've floated it before There's a sliver in your grin I know who it is for And there is magic in the skin Of the woman I adore Know each other to the core So thankful And there are four tides in a sea There are carbon copies They are built like you and me So crazy Don't be afraid to make mistakes Being human can be great No matter what is on your plate Be grateful And I am ready for the war Maybe it's coming, it's not for sure But it has come before So maybe We can end all this pursuit Find contentment in the truth Find out what's gonna work for you And try it out out out Try it out out out
