Lyrics

AkAMAWA's first song ever...

I'm climbin'up

a familiar hillside

try not to look

down upon you

The road is steep

it's broad but it narrows

I'm gettin' higher

on earth below

Oh is the road that carries me

just the passion of bein' aliiiii/iiiive

Try not to feel

oww I do feel it

Try not to look

at damages done

If I forget

and if I start runnin'

like in a dream

I'll be slowin'down

Is the past that carries me

a wicked passion of bein' aliiiii/iiiive

It's gettin'dark

my heartbeat changes

there's confidence

in my stride

bend after bend

what will I find

The road is rocky

but it is kind

Is the future carrying me

maybe the passion of bein' aliiii/iiiive

I know I never

will reach the top

and I'll roll backwards

if I would stop

So I close my eyes

and see her comin'

that lifetime friend

and lover too

Oh yeah the moon that shines on me

is the passion of bein' aliiiii/iiiive

Yes the moon that shines on me

shines on everything I see

I've fallen in love I'm finally free

yet she shows me how to be

simply aliiiii/iiiiive
