Lyrics Xavier Rudd

Xavier Rudd

Set Me Free

This place called reno, things unforseen

Built on hopeless foundations of lies and deceit

We stand in this river completely unknown

The sacred Lake Tahoe has truth in it's flow

Ancestors work slowly with things we must see

And I feel it has come, my time for release

Will you set me free

I feel it has come, my time for release

Will you set me free

I know what I know, and I see what I see

Will you set me free

I feel it has come, my time for release

Will you set me free

Let me fly

And I sink down below, the surface is rage

Holding on to a boulder, surrender with grace

And I think of my first-born, these times and his place

And his beauty and wisdom and all gentle ways

Watches over his brother, like the lion he is

And he knows what he knows, and he sees what he sees

Would you set me free

The feel it has come, my time for release

Will you set me free

And I know what I know, and I see what I see

Would you set me free

And I feel it has come, my time for release

Will you set me free

Let me fly

Young lazy French kid who ruined our world

With the ways of his father passed through his bones

Was it once was it twice was it nothing at all

It was inside my temple it was inside my home

And I look in this mirror with patience and grief

And I know what I know, and I see what I see

Would you set me free

And I feel it has come, my time for release

Will you set me free

And I know what I know, and I see what I see

Would you set me free

Let me fly

My feel it has come, my time for release

Will you set me free

Let me fly

Gave my heart to you

Gave me soul to you

Gave it all to you

On my knees

Gave my heart to you

Gave me soul to you

Gave it all to you

On my knees

Rising up (set me free), falling down

Rising up, falling down

Rising up (set me free), falling down (let me fly)

I feel it has come, my time for release

Will you set me free
