We Keep Marching

Still marching, I still feel often
I still feel closed in like coffin
Yet I’m living to the fullest canvas painted with a passion
I turn away from bullets blasted off into the distance
By the haters and resisters to the change that I sing of
The rocket ship awaits, so they say
I wait to board and anxiously depart
To the skyline beyond the day
I play the same game since I was a kid in this
It’s not the same now, not the same instruments
It’s vital that the level changes
I wanna move up to those black diamond stages
Under the view of many more generational ages
Old and the young, want to appeal to everyone under the sun
Spending right now I’m ready for the ride, ready for the pride
That I feel inside when I read the final pages
My vinyl weighs a ton
I spend it 'til the song is done, my mind is on the run
Running off the lip to share the stories under gun
I hold it to my own dome, the pressure comes from me alone
I want to change the world man, in a whirlwind of lyrics and experiments
And romance and fear alone used to be enough to keep my home
But nothing keeps me strapped in
On this journey I’m the captain with no map, no strap
No navigational skill besides belief, fate
And adapt to the landscape below, now you know
We keep marching, we keep marching through
We keep marching, one by one by two
We keep marching, we keep marching through
We keep marching, one by one by two (go)
One by one by two (yeah)
One by one by two (go)
One by one by two (yeah)
One by one by two
Not a toy soldier, hold this composure
Far from the closure, harrow to grow you
To grow me, I must be lonely
This land is desolate, let’s make the best of it
I lost the rest of the recipe, yes I did
She fought aggressively against all there is
All there was, was a spring, summer, fall
Winter brought ice that one couldn’t thaw
Um, one by one by two
I couldn’t buy shit, I had to march through
April, May, June, soon
Maybe they’ll swoon, pay me for the tunes
When the bud blooms and blossoms, it’s awesome
If the head room is lost, then it’ll cost them
His costume was nothing
His offspring brings offerings and honestly keeps him chugging
Beats keep bumping, these feet stomping
Each speech reach peaks beyond is wanting
At times, the challenge is daunting
Like trying to find a balance with no allowance for wrong things
It’s impossible, ain’t it?
The perfect picture, I’m done trying to paint it
Sun turn to rain and pleasure to pain
But I get up again, we get up and get up again
We keep marching, we keep marching through
We keep marching, one by one by two
We keep marching, we keep marching through
We keep marching, one by one by two (go)
One by one by two (yeah)
One by one by two (go)
One by one by two (yeah)
One by one by two
That’s right… I teach you how to walk
