about

This song traveled in many spaces before it was "finished", from the road to their studio in Oakland, before their daughter arrived, to the Yuba river & finally in their home in the Sierra Foothills, quarantined from COVID. This song tells a story about questioning one's current path, being present with the truth of what is, self-acceptance & acknowledgment & casting our gaze further into the future than we thought we could, in order to gather perspective and plant a meaningful life ahead of us.

lyrics

From the ground up
We will build it
And let it bestow

You will hear me
Through the darkness
Where we’ve all gone before

In the blood moon
As it’s rising
A seed that we shall sow

From the ground up
We will build it
And let it bestow

And then you will see
It in your children's eyes
Pure and new as the sunrise

From the ground up
You wanna live your life
We will build it
You wanna live it strong
And let it bestow
No matter what comes

You will hear me
You wanna reach for it
Through the darkness
A tear in your eye
Where we’ve all gone before
Without an ounce of shame

And then you will see it
In your children's eyes
Pure and new, as the sunrise

You can’t deny what is true
A wound that is seen
Heals deep through

It’s the dream where
You want to love fully
You gaze to
With a birds eye view
Your future arriving
Know we’ve done all we can

It’s a feeling
You want to be held tight
That rises
Heart forward on
Beyond all space & time
Breathe deeply now

In a big way
The little things
Matter most of all

How is it
The world is
So vast & yet so small
