Fortunate enough to know that I'm fortunate
Got shoulder support when my emotions are porcelain
Handful of homies I consider my brothers
And when I'm absolutely clueless I hit up my mother
I'm a never get tired of getting lost in the big sky
Them clouds and colors all help me to get by
I miss my ignorance but I cherish all the time that I spend
Don't waste it by chasing the other side of the fence
Yeah, barbwire and old signs
It's easy to think I'll go find me a gold mind
But over yonder's full of the same stuff
And I end up longing for the acres I came from
One man, slowing the fast forward
Uncovering the secrets like past explorers
See, I've moseyed beyond past the borders
While turning my land into an apple orchard
Good evening cute face
I'll be there for you with the troubles that you face
We'll get high then we'll bask in the moon waves
Casting fishing line to the depths of the blue lake
Well, I've learned not to care bout a doomsday
And that another's shine ain't a sip from my koolaid
Try to tell my peoples I love ‘em before it's too late
And they journey to the light or pack up their suitcases
Is this just a hummingbird hovering
Or a reminder that we shouldn't sweat the other things
I take solace in the heavy moss surroundings
And the city lights, I think that says a lot about me
Linus blanket and a spot in the green grass
A bottle of white simply minding my beeswax
I need that breather to reflect on the time that I've spent
Don't waste it by chasing the other side of the fence
Watch a new disaster bloom
Late into the afternoon
Oh don't panic, I'll be out standing
In the green grass with you
Stop and just relax a few
There's nothing that we have to do
It goes without saying, I'll be out laying
In the Green Grass With You
The train's leaving, I understand if you gotta go
Sorry that you're choosing to bounce but I am not alone
When by the river, I feel like I'm in your graces
Cause you taught me how to see it and how to appreciate it
Ain't it funny my love, I've been living in the puddles and floods
But I'm a better man when the sun is bumping above
I'm a proponent of accepting the way it be
And embracing all the subtle changes that are changing me
Can't tell if I've grown up, or if I've lost my edge
Maybe I'm finally acting on what I've always pledged
Shit I said it, might as well try to get it, okay?
Scrapped the meaning and focused on the aesthetics hey hey
That's why I'm easy, lying in the blue
Lamping in the green, mindless of the rules
Try to do it every second of the time that I spend
Can't waste it by chasing the other side of the fence
Watch a new disaster bloom
Late into the afternoon
Oh don't panic, I'll be out standing
In the green grass with you
Stop and just relax a few
There's nothing that we have to do
It goes without saying, I'll be out laying
In the Green Grass With You
Fortunate enough to know that I'm fortunate
From the heartland home to rose city coordinates
Took a chance 4 years ago with my man Theory
Here I am, but my dude no longer stands near me
Damn, clearly I dance wearily now and then
Like anything different is an improvement to how its been
Sometimes the flower beds morph into the rugged terrain
No struggle and pain, nothing to gain
That's who I be, high rises and dip dives
Turn the mundane to magic if that's what it takes to get by
I miss my brother, but I cherish all the time that I spend
Don't waste it by chasing the other side of the fence
Watch a new disaster bloom
Late into the afternoon
Oh don't panic, I'll be out standing
In the green grass with you
Stop and just relax a few
There's nothing that we have to do
It goes without saying, I'll be out laying
In the Green Grass With You
