Beneath your feet, underground (in sun and rain(
Moving in the darkness, in the dirt
We're coming up, we're coming out
Say your peace now
Get it out
Then step aside 'cuz it's our time
We give and take, the stuff of life
Don't know where we end and we begin
We call out your name if you can hear
First you'll see it
Then you'll know
Reach out your hand, it's time to go
Pull us out and we grow back again

The current's warmer now
There's sun inside the water
We make our way down
Holding hands with our daughters
And we slip
Into the stream
Turn our faces to the clouds
We spread our arms
And float away
Just like our children taught us
The river's clearer now
We remember it was poison
But to our kids it's just the world
With summers that need cooling
So we slip
Into the stream
Turn our faces to the clouds
We spread our arms
And float away
Just like our children taught us
