"Tus Pies (Your Feet)" lyrics

"Tus Pies (Your Feet)"

I'll be the Earth to ground you
From the chaos all around
I'll be the home you return to
I can be your middle ground
And I will serve as a reminder
If you jump you will not fall
Go on and spread those wings of reason
We are water after all

And if you call on me
I'll come running like a coyote
Cause we're pillars indeed
A lighthouse when you're out to sea
A beacon when direction's all I need
A compass if you know what I mean
Drunk on that nectar of all that you are to me

You can trust me in my instincts
'Cause they are like that of a bird
I am loyal, I will feed you
And sing you songs you never heard
Who wants to wear the hat this morning
I reckon neither of us cares
Cause there is more to life than leading
And I would follow you I swear

And if you call on me
I'll come running like a coyote
Cause we're pillars indeed
A lighthouse when you're out to sea
A beacon when direction's all I need
A compass if you know what I mean
Drunk on that nectar of all that you are to me

I will always share my fire
Proper way to pay respects
Lay tobacco down in gratitude
One thing I cannot neglect
And there are eyes that watch us closely
And there's a story they will tell
There's a war 'tween fact and fiction
We have no time to dispel
So familiar yet so foreign
Polaroids say so much
Bring me ceremony parallels
I'll bring vetiver and sage brush

And if you call on me
I'll come running like a coyote
'Cause we're pillars indeed
A lighthouse when you're out to sea
A beacon when direction's all I need
A compass if you know what I mean
Drunk on that nectar of all that you are to me

And I love your feet for how they found me
And how they walked upon four winds
Be my deer, I'll be your meadow
Come graze upon Bear skin
