Vocals: Natural Fact



Got my bags packed, and I'm on the train
In pursuit of my dreams, leavin' behind the inhumane
At a place where I'm no longer scared of change
And a whole hearted effort I intend to bring

And I can't peer back through the rear view
Although I know I'll be missing my peer group
‘Cause where you go stays with you forever
And I wish 'em all success in all their endeavors

And though miles separate us, the connection’s un-severed
And I'll make it up to y’all for now I'm tryin' to do better
Those who say I turned my back, I'm-a say whatever
Unpopular to pursue your heart over chedda'

But I've never been a follower, empty rhetoric swallower
Pointer of revolvers or progress staller
I'm a yes, yes yalla'; tryin' to stand taller
As the world gets colder and life gets harder

When I touch down
Gotta have my feet movin' when I hit the ground
Let the past be the past find a new crowd
Try a new path it's a new sound
When I touch down

When I touch down
Gotta let myself shine no matter who’s around
I'm-a get straight to work can't fool around
And only then will I know who's down
When I touch down

Sometimes the hardest thing is sayin' bye
Or fightin' that impulse to return when the pressure gets high
Needin' that glimmer of hope during cloudy skies
Or questioning my impulse when the account is dry

I'd lie if I said I don't second guess
But they say to spread your wing you've got to leave the nest
Needless to say, I left the bay to be the best
And if I remain unnoticed there'll still be no regrets

Steer clear of the pessimist,
I'm-a bust my ass off to make it look effortless
And when it gets to much I make a call for two bucks,
I'm in town lets do lunch, catch me up on the "who, what"

Critique my new stuff, pure heat or poot butt
Never lost the love but now that I'm gone there's renewed lust
And no matter what our history will always be a part of us
When I touch down

When I touch down
Gotta have my feet movin' when I hit the ground
Let the past be the past find a new crowd
Try a new path it's a new sound
When I touch down

When I touch down
Gotta let myself shine no matter who’s around
I'm-a get straight to work can't fool around
And only then will I know who's down
When I touch down
