[Verse 1]
Listen to the stillness and remember, hold your temper
Your laying down the groundwork underneath
Those who came before you, never faltered yet you ponder
'Bout futures you could never oversee
[Pre-Chorus]
They're calling, sounding the alarms (Ah)
Your mind is stuck in the clouds (Ooh-ooh)
[Chorus]
Open endless skies of cotton
Melting slowly into sea (Ooh-ooh)
Gently sparkling underwater
Floating downward endlessly
[Verse 2]
You're trudging through the thick of your dеsires, under fire
But freedom can't bе held by bars of steel
Plant your feet in the ground my brother, take apart all that makes you suffer
When you hold your tongue, your wounds can never heal
[Chorus]
Open endless skies of cotton (Run it, we run it, we run it)
Melting slowly into sea (Ooh-ooh)
Gently sparkling underwater
Floating downward endlessly
[Outro]
They're sounding the alarms
Your feet pounding the ground
Be careful what you pray for
Your victory resounds
No need to keep it humble, humble
You glory never dies
Your memory eternal, eternal
You lived a worthy life
They're sounding the alarms
Be careful what you pray for
