Wind, Sand And Stars

Wind, Sand And Stars

Verse 1

Travelling down this ragged a-s-s road

Hoping to transform from ashes to diamonds

Perhaps it's just a fool's party

But if there's a ghost of a chance

Then I'll prevail

I'm pouring my heart into it

I've got nothing left to lose

Turning fantasies into realities

Is usually more difficult than it seems

Verse 2

Something new doesn't occur every day

The past has a tendency to repeat itself

If I hate my life, I'll hate myself

So I must work harder at combating negativity

I may be on the verge of a breakthrough

But I don't know if I'm dreaming or being a fool

Fact or fiction - opposite ends of a spectrum

Somewhere in the middle is where I am

Verse 3

I search for meaning, I search for purpose

As a free agent, I'm afforded this much

Identity parades are on display

I'm still figuring out the complexities of me

Washing my brain on a regular basis

Is conducive for mental clarity

Although I've been down for so long

I believe that I'll rise, I'll rise

Chorus 

The wind at my back to push me forward

The sand on my feet to guide me along

The stars in my eyes to inspire me and instill confidence

That's all I need

What determination
