These pillars that we call skyscrapers Stretch to the skies looking for the gods that rest upon these clouds Yet all I see are these prisons bars hiding the mountains. This concrete jungle is trying to persuade me that Only my dreams could touch the sky Not my oily fingers that paint the pollution in the skies.
I need to escape, LA lied to me They told me that beauty is within the actors and artist They are the stereotypes that run this city
I need to move east Move to the Rockies The mountains that cut deep within these clouds. There will be the place that I flirt with immortality
Airline ticket in hand, I knew I was not going to come back I knew when I smelt the Colorado air. This air that is so new Untouched by man And unseen by the models from LA
I tracked towards the mountains on a trail This trail is the golden compass that many men traveled on As old ruins of ghost towns sit intertwined with mother nature Teaching us that man will die and mother nature will go on.
I reached a lake 12,000 Feet above the city slickers and the cameras Painted with the strokes that no artist can brush I can't brush off the unexplainable feeling Of not hearing a single person. Although this wooden sign says that that I am at Nolan Lake I still believe that I am in heaven. Clouds roll over the Mountains to greet me. Tears roll off of my cheeks And create this waterfall That crashes onto the base of the valley Surrounded by the Titans called Mountains
My heart is clean My mind is calm My hands are moist by gods tears of joy. I am happy
