ghosts embodied - nahko and medicine for the people lyrics

[verse 1]
well i’d like to be enjoying the height of a giant
or the will of a great chief’s son
but i’m somewhere in the middle, with my feet slippin’ off the pedals
i’m a two-legged, bent at wounded knee
and my silence turned to thoughts, am i in constant disbelief
i exist personified as the truth
do i live life like a thief, or am i just reading energy
that which i teach, through my teeth becomes what i preach
oh i sure would like to live without the burden of commitment
not attached to any person, place or thing
but it’s such a heavy load to carry nowhere alone
i am hopeful but tiring

[chorus]
because some of us are ghost embodied
like a face or a figure in the flesh
what you saw was a reflection of a moment
it was never really ever there
it was never really ever there

[verse 2]
well i sure would like to thrust all my shadows to the dust
or purify and may justice be served
such an old man for a young man, understanding what he can
of a blessing and of a curse
i’m a ghost taking a form, a very temporary form
may it be uncommonly found in a grove
i choose a community of trees over a community of buildings
and i know i don’t seek this alone
yes, i know i don’t seek this alone

[chorus]
because some of us are ghost embodied
like a face or a figure in the flesh
what you saw was a reflection of a moment
it was never really ever there
it was never really ever there

[breakdown]

[verse 3]
well i’d like to set afoot, and have myself a look
round the bend of the great red road
i would offer up a pipe, for the chorus for my life
with the guidance and wisdom to know

[chorus a capella]
that
some of us are ghost embodied
like a face or a figure in the flesh
what you saw was a reflection of a moment
it was never really ever there
it was never really ever there

[outro]
i choose a community of trees over a community of buildings
and i know i don’t seek this alone
i choose a community of trees over a community of buildings
and i know i don’t seek this alone
