Drop anchor;

Lower the sails

We are here

Now I am standing here where it all began

A place once so close to me now a foreign land

I look up at the sky

I call, and I cry

I'm home

Bones buried beneath

The earth at my feet

Remains of a people I gravely seek

Now I've returned

Answered the call

The anthem of a people I no longer know

As many moons past

Their faces grew strange

Afraid of forgetting

I cling to my name

On ventures I swore I'd once return home

Not realizing that home is where I roam

Under the sky I was birthed

I walk as a stranger

My mind's eye imagined

I'd find my rest in this place

But my mind could only see

And never know how I feel now I'm in this place

(Spoken)

Many of us find ourselves forever far away

Torn from a home where we never drank from the breast

Never tasted life's milk

Surrounded by foreign tongues [to]? adapt and understand in many far off lands

If however you find in the dark a [starkness]? steals your heart

Cherish that bright light

And [be it]? hope whenever it is in sight?

A face and voice I remember

Not one resembles her

Blank stares and empty and empty souls will ne'er fill this hole

Set course for the open sea

Far away from this land

The only place I can call my home

Is where my two feet stand

Now

I want nothing more

Than to flee these shores

And leave behind all this

Return to the ship

Destined for the open sea

Let go my past family

Follow the winds of time

Create what's truly mine

Hear this tale of caution

From a soul destined to roam

Cling to your closest ones and cherish your home

Sailing the open sea

Waves crash

Lightning flash

Alone in memory
