Self Lyrics

Self, I said to me, you can't live your life, if you're not free

Go find a tree that's tall tall tall

Sit on top everything below seems so small small small, you got to sing

I want something more from life, so I'll be, I'll be singing

I want something more from life, so I'll be, I'll be singing

Yeah yeah yeah

Self, I said to me, you got to look inside, where the people can't see

Go find a tree that's long long long

Think of what went right, what went wrong wrong wrong

you got to sing

I want something more from life, so I'll be, I'll be singing

I want something more from life, so I'll be, I'll be singing

Yeah yeah yeah, oh oh oh, yeah yeah yeah

Woke up this morning with a dream inside

I said to myself stay in your bed and hide

Ain't no way you need to go out in the world today

When it's full of evil, hatred and pain

I woke up this morning with a woman next to me

She was the same old woman that was in my dream

She said son you'd better step up to the plate and try

Because before you think twice, it's the end of your life

Suddenly it was then when I realized that the world's not against me

But was on my side, so I packed up my bags

Said goodbye to the farm, moved into the city

And it worked like a charm I said

I want something more from life, so I'll be, I'll be singing

I want something more from life, so I'll be, I'll be singing

Yeah yeah yeah, oh-oh oh, yeah yeah yeah

Self, I said to me, you can't live your life, in that there tree

You got to come down, face the world,

Every woman, man, child, every boy and girl

You can't find the answers in that tree tree tree

Come down, hold my hand, walk with me me me

You got to sing, we'll be singing yeah yeah yeah yeah!

I want something more from life, so I'll be, I'll be singing

I want something more from life, so I'll be, I'll be singing

Yeah yeah yeah, oh-oh oh, yeah yeah yeah

Woke up this morning with a dream inside

I said to myself stay in your bed and hide

Ain't no way you need to go out in the world today

When it's full of evil, hatred and pain

I woke up this morning with a woman next to me

She was the same old woman that was in my dream

She said son you'd better step up to the plate and try

Because before you think twice, it's the end of your life

Suddenly it was then when I realized that the world's not against me

But was on my side, so I packed up my bags

Said goodbye to the farm, moved into the city

And it worked like a charm I said

Woke up this morning with a dream inside

I said to myself stay in your bed and hide

Ain't no way you need to go out in the world today

When it's full of evil, hatred and pain

I woke up this morning with a woman next to me

She was the same old woman that was in my dream

She said son you'd better step up to the plate and try

Because before you think twice, it's the end of your life
