The place to be now you might second guess your 1st guess you might miss your intuition building complex after complex it just gets to hard to listen you might go into the ocean you might go into the woods you might seek to understand you might seek to be understood you might wish you had the answers you might think that there are none you might wish that you could take back all the things that have been done you might laugh, you might cry, you might learn not to feel you might learn to think your happiness couldn't be real and you might be blocking blocking blocking the medicine you are but no no matter where you're walking you are never too far and there's no might about it you are mighty soon we'll see cuz no matter where you are well, that's the place to be the place to be x2 cuz no matter where you are see you're the place to be come and fall up through the ceiling and then dive into the skies and reach for your farthest closeness ride the wind as it arrive spread your wings on top of healing let the feeling of alive come and fill your every moment and go as deep as you go high say i'm alive i can feel the life that's living me and don't need to try say i'm alive i am the life that's living me and i can't even die and there's no might about it i am mighty soon we'll see cuz no matter where i am well, that's the place to be the place to be x2 cuz no matter where you are see you're the place to be and you might be the perfect present for wherever you are now you might give them what they need even while you wonder how you might carry deep inside you all the love that's ever lived and you might give us you and you us and then you'd get all you can give and you might open up and see this world as magical again you might find love and then in love you might make yourself a friend and there's no might about it we are mighty soon we'll see cuz no matter where we are well, that's the place to be the place to be x2 cuz no matter where you are see you're the place to be :::iamani:::

I’m getting ready ready for you so that I’m ready when you’re ready too I spent most of my life to scared to really care (playing it cool) running from here on my way there (same ole fool) I spent most of my life missing you but now I see that what I’ve been praying for is always coming true I’m getting ready ready for you so that I’m ready when you’re ready too ever since the jump off the bang and the boom we’ve been on our way to me and you and now we’re here in the dark missing the moon the flame in your eyes dances to the tune I’m getting ready ready for you so that I’m ready when you’re ready too it took my father when I was too young to understand now when I close my eyes he holds my hand it’s coming back for me someday and when it comes I’ll wave and say I loved you hard I know you knew because we mostly kept it true we changed each other I’m a part of you I’ll catch you in a rhyme in another lifetime I’ll send you a sign I’m getting ready ready for you so that I’m ready when you’re ready too

Far and Wide 05:03
I just can’t rest or settle down settle for less or get around these walls that want my safety all these incases incase me I don’t want boxes anymore no more weight cause I’m ready to soar and I’m so sore and I’m so stretched just yearning to feel more of your blessings and I’ve been searching, searching, searching far and wide for something, something, something that’s already inside (x2) flail or sail win or fail I just can’t seem to keep out of this cell been locked in knots and long forgotten frozen parts of me from back when I felt rotten then I compost and throw in a seed and soon the flower’s blooming and your picking fruits with me pay the safe way or I garden for free became a gardener realized the garden was me and I’ve been searching, searching, searching far and wide for something, something, something that’s already inside (x2) I say I’m home sick and I’ve been discouraged been knocking at your door to hear a distant scurry we’ve got different maps but the same destination my destiny’s a sky dance in the elevation I’ve been a caged bird singing caged bird songs just to find out the door was open all along unclip my wings tag my stunted flight but I never left the sky and I don’t think I might cause I’ve been searching, searching, searching far and wide for something, something, something that’s already inside (x2)
