you’re free to fly away to where you wanna be you’re free to fly away there is so much to see but never lose sight of the things that lift you never lose sight of the ground beneath you never lose sight of the place you came from and never never lose sight of me you’re free to grow up strong and live so proud and free you're free to grow up loud and be what you will be but never lose sight of the things that lift you never lose sight of the ground beneath you never lose sight of the place you came from and never never lose sight of me this is your chance to fly away but another will come if you fall you have a life to make your place known but remember the words and the things you saw but never lose sight of the things that lift you never lose sight of the ground beneath you never lose sight of the place you came from and never never lose sight of me

v1: Do I have to be the one you go to for advice? I'm aware of all my failures, you don't have to tell me twice So I shared a few things about kindness & respect About generosity, I don't think there's too much left But there's one more thing I know to be true ch: Do what you love and maybe it will be enough to carry you through your darkest days Do what you love and maybe it will be enough to help you find your way v2: Do you remember when I told you about Jesus? I don't think we see ourselves the same way he sees us You've got a heart, a mind, and a soul You've got a spirit no one can control But there's one more thing I know to be true ch: Do what you love and maybe it will be enough to carry you through your darkest days Do what you love and maybe it will be enough to help you find your way -- lame guitar solo -- ch: Do what you love and maybe it will be enough to carry you through your darkest days Do what you love and maybe it will be enough --- Do what you love and maybe it will be enough to carry you through your darkest days Do what you love and maybe it will be enough to help you find your way to help you find your way to help you find your way

At first I couldn’t figure out the cry But knew it right away you were my guy Apple sauce and Blue train lessons My admission I love you so You’ll never know How much your life’s a blessing And watching H EE grow I love you so I love you so One was nice let’s think about a friend Surprise and two are coming home instead Now we’re five and not sure how This fairytale will end I love you so You’ll never know How much your life’s a blessing And watching H EE grow I love you so I love you so

For the future generations... The World Will Be Alright by Shu Nakamura 2020 (V1) Hard rain and strong wind Lost in the forest and you feel so blind I wish you all the best when I’m gone Because sometimes you have to figure it out all alone (V2) Calamity and Catastrophe Misfortune drama and such tragedy Then you remember what I’ve told you before We all will be alright somehow after all (Bridge) I know that you don’t want to give up all your rights I know that you don’t want to lose any of those fights But maybe there is something much bigger than your special gem And if you ever lose, then go back to your stem Take a deep breath, and you can start it all over again (V3) Climate and the great nature The universe keeps giving us the lecture Then you remember what I’ve told you before The world will be alright, the world will be alright The world will be alright somehow after all La-la, la-la-la….

Ever since you were a little bitty babe I have fixed you with my eagle eye Should you ramble to the left Should you stray to the right Should you wander under starry sky I will build you up a tower ten feet tall I will fence you in as safe as sound Should the crows swoop down Should the night fall black I will hide you in the underground But you’re gonna have to Wade in the water In the river gonna dive Gotta swim if you don’t wanna drown Gonna have to Wade in the water In the river gonna dive You gotta learn how to swim in the sound I’ve seen you buried in the bosom of the hearth fire I’ll see you carried in your lover’s arms I’ve seen you rocked in the cradle Let you win all the wagers I have raised no false alarms I can shout it from the barricades above Spell it in the pebbles on the shore But when the fog lights fade When the roof gonna cave I can’t show you what the big night’s for ‘cause you’re gonna have to Wade in the water In the river gonna dive Gotta swim if you don’t wanna drown Gonna have to Wade in the water In the river gonna dive You gotta learn how to bathe in the sound Comes a day and I shall not pass easy In the shadows I will go And you will step up to the river’s edge And dive into the waters below ‘cause you’re gonna have to Wade in the water In the river gonna dive Gotta swim if you don’t wanna drown Gonna have to Wade in the water In the river gonna dive You gotta learn how to bathe in the sound

Kicked around a million ways I could’ve wrote this song Should write a warning Or a happy singalong A message for my daughters But not just for their ears Ain’t none of your concern what I’d send across the years Here I am still talking And I guess you’re listening in Though you hear these words This song is just for them Don’t forget where you come from And don’t forget where you are Don’t forget that we love you You’re both our shining stars After mom and I are gone There’s lots you’ll need to know Be skeptical of strangers And don’t eat the yellow snow Though I should be serious But couldn’t help myself Even I have limits on These cautionary tales Lend an ear to politics wretched though it is If you find religion well It ain’t no one’s business If you’re living in the states I hope they’ve found their shit Last I was looking It seemed that they’d lost it Don’t let no one tell you Your beliefs are on the skids Grown ups with the answers Are a myth they tell the kids Don’t forget where you come from And don’t forget where you are Don’t forget that we love you You’re both our shining stars After mom and I are gone There’s lots you’ll need to know Be skeptical of strangers And don’t eat the yellow snow Though I should be serious But couldn’t help myself Even I have limits on These cautionary tales Houses aren’t haunted But their people often are Everyone’s got damage The healing’s in the scars

LITTLE hey little one do you think that the future looks bright lollypop moons and candy cane trees up so high mermaids and dragons and nursery rhymes heavenly angels whispering sweet lullaby’s hey little one can you run can you jump can you hide is something amiss i can see that your hurting inside lightning and rainstorms scare you with fright ghosts in the shadows follow you into the night hey little one your awaiting the train to arrive Rush hour faces looking so weary and tired Facts and figures records and files data transmitted into barren night hey little one do you think that the future looks bright

Little one Soon you will be old enough to think all on your own You will see this life and become who you are I count the days Still I can’t take away the fact that one day you’ll grow up To become the man we taught you to be I believe you will be a good one I believe you’ll be one of the good ones BE LOVE As you grow Remember to stand out on your own Don’t be afraid to be yourself these days As you crave Please take what you need, but don’t let it go to waste I know you’ll be smart about the path your take I believe you’ll be a good one I believe you’ll be one of the good ones BE LOVE

Oh I’ve noticed That you’re an artist Lord help you child This ride’s gon’ be wild You better hang hang hang on tight Even in low gear Your mind is sharp dear It may seem uncouth To be wielding the truth But you must tell it like it is Your heart is growing When tears start flowing No need to drown Just write it all down Remember ugly is profound Oh I’ve noticed That you’re an artist Lord help you child This ride’s gon’ be wild You better hang hang hang on tight Your mind will wander Both here and yonder Try to focus your will Let passion be your pill Just do the work that gives you chills Oh one more thing dear Ain’t nothin’ free here You can hope for the best But you must manifest Just don’t confuse money with success Oh I’ve noticed That you’re an artist Lord help you child This ride’s gon’ be wild You better hang hang hang on tight

Every day you wake up Be the very best that you can Be nice, be kind, always meet the eyes With a firm shake of your hand Before you go off judging Try to put yourself into their shoes Lead by example Even when it’s hard to do Be anything that you want to be But remember you’re going to fall Over and over and over and over again It’s ok to dream and it’s ok to wish Keep your line in the water If you’re ever gonna catch a fish Money won’t buy you happiness Set straight your priorities Every thing will cost you time But the best things in life are free Patience is a virtue Idle hands can have a busy mind So wait your turn get what you earn Even if you’re at the back of the line Admit when you don’t know ‘Cause otherwise you never will Make peace with your past and always learn from your mistakes It’s ok to dream and it’s ok to wish Keep your line in the water If you’re ever gonna catch a fish Don’t let yourself get in your way The sky’s the limit if you can maintain Follow your heart but use your mind So the former won’t keep you in a bind Over and over and over and over again It’s ok to dream and it’s ok to wish Keep your line in the water If you’re ever gonna catch a fish
