[hummed intro melody] 



[Chorus x2] 

Findin' out my way somehow 

Heard those sounds up in the sky 

Tryin' to find a way up out/about 

Darkness will not be my guide 



[Gift of Gab] 

It's been a long time comin' as well 

Lots of rises, lots of falls, lots of stories to tell 

Lots of 40 ounce session couch surfin', hotel 

Residency, got to pay the rent, fuck it, oh well 

Came to a point where a drink meant death 

Cold turkey, nerves shook, all the stress repressed 

Bubbled up to the surface, now I'm lookin' at me 

Face to face with myself, simply tryin' to be 

Sometimes it's hard to just be, when you're blinded in mist 

I wonder if other people go through shit like this 

Was about to call it quits, then the moonlight spoke 

I was sleepin' on life, suddenly I awoke 

and now I'm.. 



[Chorus x2] 



[Gift of Gab] 

Did some wrongs, paid some costs 

Skipped out on some roommates, cussed out a few bosses 

Explosion of the ego, the power of the sauce/source 

I guess that I was lookin' for a confidence loss 

Somewhere along the road I must have made a wrong turn 

But I've come to realize that it's just a long journey 

Used to search for the meaning 'till one dark summernight 

A cat told me that my words had inspired his life 

and now I'm.. 



[Chorus x2: including occasional "somehow" in the background] 



[Gift of Gab] 

Now it's all about purpose, progress, not perfection 

Seeing beneath the surface, faith followed by action 

I live it all now, with a hunger and a passion 

And when I get stuck I let go and keep mashin' 

And when I get stuck, I get still and just ask Him 

For knowledge of His will, then my third eye transcends 

Thought and everything now's exactly like it's supposed to be 

Channel when I'm givin' and give it back out, over beats 

Every now and then I think of how things work 

All that's fuel for fire now, it's funny how things work 

And when I'm flustered and I find I'm slipping back in that space 

I see that planet, now it's perfect in the middle of space 

and I know that I'm..
