Lyrics
0:08L'eau
0:14Terre
0:19Feu
0:24Air
0:27Cœur de l'eau
0:28Cœur de terre
0:31Il se tait dans notre papier cadeau
0:37I crack the ball and remember
0:40Vous n'avez jamais eu la liberté de tourner
0:45C'est dans l'esprit de la Terre
0:48Ce qui n'a pas de prix
0:50N'a pas de prix
0:53Tout à coup c'est maintenant
0:55Qu'il faut même encore pleurer
0:57We got a long while left to burn
0:59But it's easier when you know whatever's alive in you
1:03Nous sommes réveillés
1:05It's love alive maintenant et puis en avant
1:08Et l'arbre de vie et l'œuf cosmique
1:11Et le sang de la Terre
1:18Se souvenir
1:20Se souvenir while we speak the English
1:23Se souvenir while we speak the French
1:26Se souvenir while we speak the Spanish
1:28Se souvenir and bargain with the vendors
1:31Se souvenir not to sell our souls
1:33Se souvenir in between remember how to speak
1:38Out of my mouth before I had to say
1:41Nobody ever wants to sit there one day
1:45Je me suis souvenu
1:49Toutes les couleurs du ciel
1:53Et c'est dans le cœur de mon ventre
1:55Tout à coup c'est maintenant
1:58Qu'il peut même encore pleurer
2:00We got a long way left to go
2:02But it's easier when you know whatever's alive in you
2:06Nous sommes réveillés
2:07Oh love alive maintenant et puis en avant
2:10Et l'arbre de vie et l'œuf cosmique
2:14Et le sang de la Terre
2:16Sometimes in life when you go too far
2:18The truth will bring you to who you are
2:21Sometimes in life when you go too far
2:23The truth will bring you to who you are
2:26Sometimes in life when you go too far
2:28The truth will bring you to who you are
2:31Sometimes in life when you go too far
2:34The truth will bring you to who you are
2:36Life can bring you down when you're living in it
2:38These circles and cycles go round though you even spin it
2:40But you stoppin it when your shoulder is a reminder
2:43To not run yourself in the ground to yourself be kinder
2:45Sometimes I got real cast by truth even in the rear view
2:48Driving aimlessly around with nowhere to stay to
2:51She ain't the should be them the vibes like an abstract poet
2:54If somebody ask who you are well
2:56You better know it better know it better know it
2:58Better know it better know it better know it
3:05Se souvenir
3:07Se souvenir while we speak the English
3:10Se souvenir while we speak the French
3:12Se souvenir while we speak the Spanish
3:15Se souvenir while we ah
3:18Se souvenir and bargain with the vendors
3:21Not to sell our souls
3:24In between remember how to speak
3:28How we speak
3:33How she speaks
3:34Out of my mouth before I had to say
3:36Nobody ever wants to sit there one day
3:38Feu
3:42Air
3:44To remember often all the sage disasters are done
3:57Se souvenir
4:02Se souvenir
4:05How to cry how to ground how to burn how to breathe
4:15Se souvenir
4:16To remember often all the sage disasters are done
4:26How to ground how to burn how to breathe
4:40Se souvenir
4:42L'arbre de vie
4:45L'œuf cosmique
4:47Et le sang de la Terre
4:52Se souvenir
4:53L'arbre de vie
4:55L'œuf cosmique
4:57Et le sang de la Terre
5:08We've got a lot left to unlearn
5:10But it's easier when you know
5:12How to use the light in you
5:17It's a love alive
5:25L'arbre de vie
5:29L'œuf cosmique
5:34Et le sang
5:45Cœur de l'eau cœur de terre
5:54Se souvenir
