written by my late brother, Daniel, who suffered from mental illness

Song Description

song about being confused in the world

Lyrics

one day I went learning with my mind on fire
a fire as angry as the sun
and as I went learning my mind kept on burning
it seemed I was always on the run

one day I stopped learning I just had to be free
from the schools the church and all for you see
not free from the teachers not free from the preachers
but free from all the hate inside of me

chorus: didn't know where I was going- didn't know if I was growing
but inside I knew that I was blowing up and still not knowing why
on the inside I was loaded on the outside I exploded
wish I knew just how it all begun

one day I went earning with my heart and soul on fire
didn't know where it was all to lead
but how could I play the game until I had an aim
and what aim could I have til I was free

chorus
