Cloudy Skies - A Far-Off Journey Lyrics

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
(Jukebox Juice)
And Cloudy Skies
I wanted to live
I wanted to be
I wanted to dream
I wanted to breathe
I wanted to feel
I wanted to see
I wanted to heal
I want to believe
I wanted to pack up and go
Get the hell on the road, got a world to explore
And I won't stop till I'm sure that I seen all the shores
And there ain't no more detours
I've waited my whole life, been patient, compliant
I've given this life my everything that I could and I'm striving
But don't think for a minute that I ain't gonna wait any longer
I'm giving ya one last chance to come along
And know that I've held on strong
But this is it
I won't quit
This world is mine and I'm taking it all by storm
I'ma reach every corner
Then moving upward with my spirit right
I'm swaying and gliding; I'm flipping and striding
And I'm riding on this radiant light
I'm packing it up and I'm going
I'm tired of all of this fighting and crying and defying and lying
I feel like I'm dying inside and
I'm biting my lip cuz of this pain that I'm hiding
I'm trying, I'm trying,I'm trying to tell you my goodbye and
You can't hear me cuz you's denying
All of those times you've been reminded
Of all our mistakes and all of our crimes and
All the times that we be hating
Breaking, faking, acting vacant
But I can tell by your eyes
That you know exactly what it is that I'm saying
So let's act all kind and cordial
No time for court or war
Please don't get violent
I'll use my indoor voice
We can't even handle this course
And I'm, gonna be ready to move on when you're done
Having the final, the final last word
And I'm cool and collected all along
Don't think I'ma move on or anything quick
But you gotta know, before I'm gone
It wasn't you, it was me
That done quit
I'm a hit the road
You be strong
I need to change everything that's wrong
With where I am, I don't belong
And I'm
Looking for a purpose, so I'm gonna get going
And I'm gone
I've got a world to explore
And I'm going at it all alone
I'm a hit the road
You be strong
I need to change everything that's wrong
With where I am, I don't belong
And I'm
Looking for a purpose, so I'm gonna get going
And I'm gone
I've got a world to explore
And I'm going at it all alone
I wanted to live
I wanted to be
I wanted to dream
I wanted to breathe
I wanted to feel
I wanted to see
I wanted to heal
I want to believe
Up, up, and away
And yeah, I'm leaving soon
Flying up through the clouds in deliverance
Seeing this world from a new visual
Who am I to go against the wind
Breathing in freedom
I'm seeing your presence
My memories slip in
I heave a heavy sigh
And suppress it, let it fly
Tranquility resides
Giving this my everything
It means letting go of my whole being
Then lifting and floating
Everything joining; uniting
Give me a chance, and I need to escape
And I don't want to do it in the weakest of ways
Im hearing these voices, all of my different choices
No escape
Everything that I'm regretting
The weight, it's suppressing
I'll do what it takes to transcend
To escape and dilate it
And to then dissipate it
Into vastness, and now I'm leaving
I'm letting go of this nominal life
And yeah this choice a bit drastic
And I'm ascending day and night
All this chaos was a catalyst
And now there's a certain stillness in my madness
I'm leaving the city, I'm leaving the planet
I'm leaving addiction, and yeah
I'm even giving all that I have and
And I'm living outside what society demanded
And yeah, I'm forging my own path
I'm seeing it's all orchestrated
A formalized tactic that I command
Gods only know
For what I'll unfold
From all that I know
Destiny will control
And fate is told
Only after completing
Knowing all that you can know
Then you go cold
But I'm up here floating all alone
In stillness and clarity
Carefree wanderings as I roam
The earth is my foundation
The elements make up
All the human spaces
My spirit is that of a vagrant
And I'll live it too the fullest
Every opportunity, I'll take it
To enter The Gate of the Awakened
I'm a hit the road
You be strong
I need to change everything that's wrong
With where I am, I don't belong
And I'm
Looking for a purpose, so I'm gonna get going
And I'm gone
I've got a world to explore
And I'm going at it all alone
I'm a hit the road
You be strong
I need to change everything that's wrong
With where I am, I don't belong
And I'm
Looking for a purpose, so I'm gonna get going
And I'm gone
I've got a world to explore
And I'm going at it all alone
And maybe some day you can forgive me
For leaving you there and treating you wrong
I'm on a journey so long
And I'm sorry I left you all alone
I can't promise that I'll ever come home
I can only promise that I won't

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
