Slow walking,
This ghost, it sighs when I sleep.
**** not I, but you and they.
Lies and betrayal are all I know.
Tilt to the sky they say,
Hooks grapple me to the stone.
Breath, take this legs and walk.
Then swivel humble over your tongue.
Humility, a virtue not mine.
Better version of me,
Climb and sit, stars tell stories.
Choices, good day or a bad one.
Where did I learn?
On my own, without a face to say hello too.
Night walks when everyone is sleeping.
I can't live within my head
Pretending they're besides me.
Plains of desolation.
Close your eyes and let him find you
I'm lying to myself, still Austin.
Child stuck in a mans body.
Don't worry child,
Look into your fathers eyes.
Be your own king in a gold throne.
Be one with yourself.
Take these wings of the hawk,
My father said,
Heaven has a plan for you Casey.
Take a hold o Casey,
Say goodbye to Austin.

Child stuck in a mans body.
Don't worry child,

Be your own king in a gold throne.
Be one with yourself.
Take these wings of the hawk,

Heaven has a plan for you Casey.
Take a hold o Casey,
Say goodbye to Austin.
