about

You walk, you travel, you move, you desire less and become more about yourself rather than possessions and materialism. Walking is about many ideas and captures a small part of my stories of walking so lost, open and free in different parts of the world. This songs is also a dedication to the many acts of walking though out history; marching, protesting, migration, exile, travel, mediation and more. The more one walks, the more they are not just becoming themselves but also embracing a unique and truthful part of journey, both individually and collectively as history has shown us.

lyrics

Walking through this dusty desert
Far away from where we were
Passing through these desolate plains
Far beyond we'd ever thought was.

Walking over mountains when we're higher enough to see the sea
All i have is right now with me
Feelings now get closer to what's free

We're all searching for that something
High and low some far and wide
All we have is right inside
The vessel is not in your mind

The past is gone it's just a memory
There's nowhere i'd rather be
Down a road we've walked for hours
The more i walk the more i am me.
