I got my things to do tomorrow
They're on the table
They're in my new future
Tomorrow is their purpose
Sticks in the marsh
As I wandered through that old abandoned house
I stayed in overnight, yeah I stayed there overnight, the old abandoned house
I didn't care about all the dreams that went before me in that house
The water in the streams, I put my feet in there
I traveled day and night
One change of clothing in my pack
And a blanket, too
I used the sun to find my way
I looked to the man sun God
My guidance on that earth
To get to the place I saw on the map
There is no God, God is everything
It's all a picture we're painting on the street
I got my walking shoes on
