Tus Pies (Your Feet)
I'll be the Earth that grounds you from the chaos all around
I'll be the home you return to
I can be your middle ground
I can serve as a reminder
If you jump you will not fall
Go on and spread those words of reason
We are water after all
And if you call on me
I'll come running like a coyote
'Cause we're pillars indeed
A lighthouse when you're out to sea
A beacon when direction's all I need
A compass if you know what I mean
Drunk on that nectar of all that you are to me
You can trust me in my instincts
'Cause they are like that of a bird
I am loyal, I will feed you
Sing you songs you've never heard
Who wants to wear the hat this morning
I reckon neither of us cares
'Cause there is more to life than leading
I would follow you, I swear
And if you call on me
I'll come runnin' like a coyote
'Cause we're pillars indeed
A lighthouse when you're out to sea
A beacon when direction's all I need
A compass if you know what I mean
Drunk on that nectar of all that you are to me
And I will always share my fire
Proper way to pay respects
Lay tobacco down and gratitude
Yeah, one thing I cannot neglect
And there are eyes that watch us closely
Ans there's a story they will tell
There's a war 'tween fact and fiction
And, we have no time to dispel
So familiar, yet so foreign
Polaroids say so much
Bring me ceremony parallels
I'll bring palaver and sage brush
And if you call on me
I'll come runnin' like a coyote
'Cause we're pillars indeed
A lighthouse when you're out to sea
A beacon when direction's all I need
A compass if you know what I mean
Drunk on that nectar of all that you are to me
And I love your feet for how they found me
And how they walked upon four winds
Be my deer, I'll be your meadow
Come graze upon Bear skin
