Nahko Bear - 7 Feathers lyrics

I know a carpenter I know a laborer He is my teacher He is my brother I have a neighbor He is my savior He doesn't waver He's a strong believer I know a business man He scrapped his business plan While screaming, "f** the man!" He gave into the land You're all archetypes People that I might like to be just like In a completely different way And we all We're coming out of our caves Coming out of our caves Yes we all We're coming out of our caves Coming out of our caves I know a farmer I know his vision I know his struggle I know his hope I know a futurist He is an optimist And he knows a young waitress And he's trying to coax her Out of her cave By smiling, by winking By saying you know it's good For us to talk Ya know, it's good to talk! I know a father I loved his daughter I told him never would I forsake her But, I got home too late From one of my escapades No woman to face, just a note That said, "Baby, I've sailed away." Right out of my cave Caught a swell Caught a wave To another inspiring place And we all We're coming out of our caves Coming out of our caves Yes we all We're coming out of our caves Coming out of our caves My friend the bureaucrat He just accepts all that Which I cannot accept Such frustration that I wept For my friend the taxman He is my father and He tallies numbers all day Yes, he knows his numbers you could say He taxes income, I asked him How come? You know I work hard for every penny... Don't you think I deserve it all? Oh the law, the law, the law son... There are flaws in the law But, in the end I just answer to God Boy, I'm just doing my job! My friend the astronomer She is a stargazer I swear they talk to her Boy, I wish I knew What they were saying While I was layin' in her bed With her chest to my head... Were our intentions misread? So I just said it I said, Baby, I'm a nobody I ain't got no money! Just this ambition to tell the people We are equal, so c'mon, baby Come out of your cave! Catch a swell Catch a wave To another inspiring place And we all We're coming out of our caves Coming out of our caves Yes we all We're coming out of our caves Coming out of our caves
