Xavier Rudd

School has been keeping me busier than I would prefer. One good thing about keeping busy though, time flies. I'm already a month into the semester. Its a pretty reasonable excuse as to why I haven't written anything in a while. But this post will be short because I have to wake up early tomorrow.

Xavier Rudd. A musician I'm not too familiar with, but who's musical talent and songwriting makes me smile. I thought it would be appropriate to write about a particular song of his on this sort-of-travel-blog since it has a lot to do with the planet. I'm very fond of this planet, and I'm in love with this song. Its called "Messages" and I'm copy/pasting the lyrics :) I've been wanting to share this song for a while.

So now come sit down will you talk with me now?

 Let me see through your eyes where there is so much life 

We are biding our time for these myths to unwind 

These changes we will confront

So please beware with every place that you head

 And look to your soul for these things that you know 

For the trees that we see cannot forever breathe 

With the changes they will confront

You know some people they just wont understand 

They just wont understand these things 

Thank you for your message but I don't understand

 No, I just wont understand these things

And this sacred land it has seen many hands, it has 

Wealth and gold yet it is fragile and old

And all the greedy souls just don't care to know 

Of the changes it will confront

So speak out loud of the things you are proud 

And if you love this coast then keep it clean as it evolves 

Cause the way that it shines may just dwindle with time 

With the changes it will confront

You know some people they just wont understand 

They just wont understand these things 

Thank you for your message but I don't understand 

No, I just wont understand these things 

You know some people they just wont understand 

They just wont understand these things 

Thank you for your message but I don't understand 

No, I just wont understand these things

So hold nice and close the ones that get to your soul 

So that when it is cold you wont feel so alone 

Cause the roads that you take may just crack and break 

With the changes you will confront

With each gift that you share you may heal and repair 

With each choice you make you may help someone's day 

Well I know you are strong may your journey be long 

And now I wish you the best of luck 

Well I know you are strong may your journey be long 

And now I wish you the best of luck

You know some people they just wont understand 

They just wont understand these things 

Thank you for your message but I don't understand 

No, I just wont understand these things
