Got away from it all, living on the island Vagrants raft away from me No technology, I may be a savage but this be my land society of one, me and endless sea your petty worries are just grains in the sand There's no time of day, living on the island Only day and night, when there's a will there's a way No cruelty, no tickets, no beatings, no contraband Living on the island, you're alone, not lonely, you're only a stray Here my starvation isn't at the hands of others the beasts still exists, but they're my friends my Walden Lake, no kin, no brothers but I was alone in the beginning, I'll be alone in the end I can build what I need, do whatever what I want I'll smell, but you can't spit on me, I'm the king of myself

The Island
Got away from it all, living on the island Vagrants raft away from me No technology, I may be a savage but this be my land society of one, me and endless sea your petty worries are just grains in the sand There's no time of day, living on the island Only day and night, when there's a will there's a way No cruelty, no tickets, no beatings, no contraband Living on the island, you're alone, not lonely, you're only a stray Here my starvation isn't at the hands of others the beasts still exists, but they're my friends my Walden Lake, no kin, no brothers but I was alone in the beginning, I'll be alone in the end I can build what I need, do whatever what I want I'll smell, but you can't spit on me, I'm the king of myself
