Today I screwed up

While doing what I love

And all that I thought was

‘I’m not cut out for this’

Today I suppressed

The fears that I had

I wanted to fight

But I don’t have the strength for it

I chose the easy way

Over the good one, today

And it took me away

I lost the feeling that I belonged there

I wanna go, I’m gonna go

Barefoot through the mud

Learn to love the dirt

I wanna feel, I wanna feel

My soul, unclothed

Out of control, upon the earth

Barefoot

Was angry and sad

With myself all the time

I didn’t want to see

Until you told me to cry it out

Just one little step

I thought I’d only be a burden

But we both felt blessed

I love the rawness and realness we found there

I’m gonna go, I’m gonna go

Barefoot through the mud

Learn to love the dirt

I wanna feel, I wanna feel

My soul, unclothed

Out of control, upon the earth

Barefoot

One day I’ll wake up and find these bumps in the road

Won’t be able to keep me off balance

They’ll just be part of my daily adventures

And I won’t feel the need to control them

I’m gonna go, I’m gonna go

Barefoot through the mud

Learn to love the dirt

I wanna feel, I wanna feel

My soul, unclothed

Out of control, upon the earth

Barefoot
