Inspiration

I'm going way down
Down south
Where I feel a little better about myself
Gonna find some inspiration real soon
Mother earth and I'm gonna find a way
Cos I'm riding through this valley all the way, yeah, on my own
Gonna learn to, say, live by myself, I'm gonna learn to be alone
Cos I've chained myself to someone's hip, so long, now, I can't see
And I've forgotten who I really was, I forgot about me
Gonna find some inspiration
Gonna take it real slow
No pressure on myself
I'm gonna go with the flow
Cos it seems like the only person I can't escape from is me
So I'm gonna open these old eyes, I'm gonna open them up and see
Cos I'm riding through this valley all the way, yeah, on my own
Gonna learn to, say, live by myself, I'm gonna learn to be alone
Cos it seems like the only person I can't escape from is me
So I'm gonna open these old eyes, I'm gonna open them up and see
Hey, I'm commin' home
Hey, I'm commin' home
