[Intro] Em D C Em C D [Verse 1]
Em
Blessed by momma’s fruits

D                 C
They be keepin me well

Em
Well the well runs dry

C                      D
No time to quench your thirst
[Verse 2]
Em
Go feed your presence

D                      C
Your own message I can seek

Em
Can you feel that rhythm

C                     D
Sung by the birds and trees
[Chorus]
Em                 G       D
So go now for I am here to stay

Em                          C            D
Your path diverges from the forest’s old ways

Em                            G         D
Time to fly my friend seeking truth and wisdom

Em                            C    D
The elders call but you don’t ever listen

Em                       G             D
Where are we now for our heads’ in the clouds

Em                            C           D
Go plant your feet no need to reap unholy grounds

Em           G D
Don’t follow me

Em                         C       D
Put your trust in them ol' ancient deeds
[Break] Em D C Em C D Em D C Em C D [Verse 3]
Em
Do you know your home

D                        C
The roots from which you started

Em
From broken hearts to taken land

C                     D
Let’s re-sow them old seeds

Em
Blood still stains this earth

D                   C
From the fathers of greed

Em
Oh these broken promises

C                   D
Another covenant of lies
[Chorus]
Em                 G       D
So go now for I am here to stay

Em                          C            D
