[Intro]
                 Em7
...and start up again

      Dsus2                                    Cadd9
Um, I think it'll be an experience for you that you'll never forget

D
 Probably will be life-changing

                             Em7
I think it's going to be very hard on your body

                        Dsus2                            Cadd9
I think you're gonna be, um, shocked at how difficult it is

                      D
But I applaud you for trying it, I'm really excited for yo

Em7                  Dsus2
 And like Aunt Becky says, "Nobody gets hurt"

  Cadd9                        D
So just be safe, and I love you
[Verse 1]
Em7
 It's hard to explain what I got the vision for

Dsus2
 It's almost like I'm tryna sing a hidden note

Cadd9
 And I can't even get it out, though it's it my throat

D
I get so frustrated, I feel like a misanthrope

Em7
 I start feeling like my whole life isn't dope

Dsus2
 And I've ruined everything with what I didn't know

Cadd9
 Then some shit my father told me starts hitting home

D
 What the fuck am I even here livin' for?

Em7                                            Dsus2
I miss my friends, we don't talk as much as we used to

                                     Cadd9
I'm too busy checking on YouTube and scrolling on IG

                       D
I tend to get glued to various distractions as my life floats by

Em7
 Have I just been checked out the whole time?

Dsus2
 I spend 85% of it online

Cadd9                                           D
 And for the things that really matter I got no time (No time)

         Em7
But wait, if I can get myself out of this broke mood

Dsus2
 Then maybe all my listeners could have hope too

Cadd9
Yeah, that's what I'm gon' do

D
I become who I am from all the shit I go through
[Chorus]
Em7  Dsus2            Cadd9  D
          Keep walkin'

                    Em7              Dsus2         Cadd9       D
If I could write my name across the sky for all to see, then I would

                   Em7           Dsus2         Cadd9       D
If I could bring myself to understand what you are, then I would

      Em7                    Dsus2
And I would if I could, if I could, then I would

      Cadd9                  D
And I would if I could, if I could, then I would

      Em7                    Dsus2
And I would if I could, if I could, then I would

      Cadd9                  D
And I would if I could, if I could, then I would, and I would
[Verse 2]
      Em7
I'm a butterfly flyin' through a broken sky

    Dsus2
God servin' me truth, and I'm open wide

         Cadd9
It takes courage to be still and go inside

         D
I'm on a tip of liberation, watch me toe the line

    Em7
When yoga pose hits a yoga pose

  Dsus2
A part of me that I really hate showin' shows

Cadd9
 You get a taste from my post of quotes

       D
But my inner growth is something no one knows

      Em7
And I hope it shows

      Dsus2                    Cadd9
In my eyes, in my music, in my vibe, in my kindness

           D
And in my stride, in the grand art piece that is my life

Em7
 And again, this is just a brush stroke

Dsus2
 You've been running long enough, child, come home

Cadd9
 Break it down, universe means one song

D
 You wanna taste life, swim into the unknown

Em7
 I know that I did my best

D
 I'm not designed to eat, sleep, sit, and text

Cadd9
 My thirty-first year is a vision quest

D
 I know the answer that I'm lookin' for isn't sex

Em7
 And it isn't money, isn't fame

D
 It's something much deeper than I can explain

Cadd9
 And this verse is just a finger pointin' toward the trail

D
 Soon you gonna have to walk it for yourself
[Chorus]
Em7  Dsus2            Cadd9  D
          Keep walkin'

                    Em7              Dsus2         Cadd9       D
If I could write my name across the sky for all to see, then I would

                   Em7           Dsus2         Cadd9       D
If I could bring myself to understand what you are, then I would

      Em7                    Dsus2
And I would if I could, if I could, then I would

      Cadd9                  D
And I would if I could, if I could, then I would

      Em7                    Dsus2
And I would if I could, if I could, then I would

      Cadd9                  D
And I would if I could, if I could, then I would, and I would
[Outro]
Em7                  Dsus2                                       Cadd9
 If you could give a wish to future Mike when he sets off on his walk in a few months, what would that be?

D
 I wish you remember this is what you wanted

Em7                        Dsus2
 This is, this is what you wanted

                                            Cadd9                       D
I understand intellectually there are gonna be terrible moments on this journey

                      Em7                  Dsus2
Where I wanna give up, where my body hurts, where I'm thinking

 Cadd9              D
"Why the heck did I choose to do this? This was so stupid"

Em7                          Dsus2
 And the reason you chose to do it

       Cadd9
Was to feel what you're feeling right now

      D            Em7  Dsus2  Cadd9  Dsus2  Em7
And decide to keep going
