50 times around the sun
This life I’ve lived
These things I’ve done
Some days lost
And some days won
These 50 times around the sun

Gonna read it and run
Just read it and run
Keep being kind
Praise the earth
Raise my son
You see
I got plenty to do
Before I’m done

There’s still music inside
That hasn’t been sung
Love and forgiveness
That’s still on my tongue

No time to keep haulin’
The same **** around
And I don’t say that
To sound all deep and profound
It’s just the clock keeps ticking
I gotta cover more ground

I’m still evolving
On this world revolving
Old hates absolving
Old myths dissolving

Enough time gathering
What I think what I know
Now is the time
To start lettin it go
Just keep my truth
And loose all the show
Cause I’m 50 now
Ya know

One step ahead
Or one step behind
Chase all you want
But there’s nothing you’ll find

Cause the place where I am
Is where I’m supposed to be
I’m 50 now
Time to set it all free
And just be just be just be
In this fathom long body
Called me called me
