[crowd bleed] Ok were gonna need everybody on their feet for this 1 [crowd cheers] [Chorus] If my wandering feet never bring me home, and fate lays me low ’mid the gold I own, set me down where the lost winds moan, on a nameless road where wild seeds’re sown. No chiseled mark, no tears to shed I’d spare my kin that storm of dread. Just lay me deep where the tall grass grown, unclaimed, untold, alone. [crowd cheers] [Rap Verse 1] bury me far on a dusty lane, for I chase the wind like a ship insane. No promise stands I’ll return again, as I sail on dreams through the sun and rain. Crawled from the muck like a creature small fought tooth and nail to rise at all. My homegirl by my side, my 1st mate so true, though some back home pray my shit come unglued. Let ’em take their shots, I’ll smash the glass, hit the board so hard then kick some ass Coin in the pouch, bud in the bowl, and lessons I learned keep my spirit whole. Raise a cup to the nights death brushed my cheek thinkin’ on it still leaves my voice a squeak. If the stars dont shine, I’ll spark my own flame from bridges burned in my younger game. Just put me in the ground where ever i fall, and when the bells toll, pour a drink for all let the earth take what’s left of me, as the tide rolls on eternally. [crowd cheers] Woooooot!!! [Chorus] If never again I reach my gate, and I fall still cloaked in the weight of fate, lay me low in a quiet state where forgotten roads slip past like slate. No tears need fall, no grief to share just sky above and the whispering air. A nameless mound where the wild winds skate I’ll sleep just fine in that place so great. [Bridge] [drum solo hand clapping and whistling] [Rap Verse 2] I’ve been cut, crossed, cast out, tossed but never have I worn the mask of false. Seen loved ones stare with eyes so straight, then twist their tongues with a liar’s gait. A truth that stings but a sailor learns not every heart gives what it yearns. Fortune spins quick and the Reaper’s sly I’ll grin wide when he draws nigh. Tell my young ones my love held fast, and every mistake from my troubled past was a plank laid down so their steps would last. Let ’em take what they need, no questions asked. Hope I wasn’t late when it mattered most for time sails swift like a fleeing ghost. Let the world squawk loud like gulls at sea folks’ opinions never captained me. When I’m gone, plant me in that far away land but hold my name in your memory’s hand. Even if the stone lies silent and bare, you’ll know my bones still linger there. [Chorus] If my boots don’t tread my porch once more, and I fall dressed rich as a king of lore, send me down some forgotten shore where the winds hum low and the wildflowers roar. No crowds to cry, no heavy load just peace that drifts where the soft winds blowed. A nameless bed on a quiet road, That’s enough for my final abode. [Outro] [drum solo hand clapping foot stomping whistling, and harmonica only] Woooooooooooooooottttt!!! [crowd cheers] Thank You!!!
