I Have Been to the Mountain - Kevin Morby

Calling out

Demanding answers

Pleading skies

Cry for hours

Dropping peace bombs

Collecting prayers

A sky that mirrors

A sky that stares as I sing

I have been to the mountain

And I have walked on his shore

I have seen but I can’t see him no more

Round 'em out, make an echo

Destroy the destroyer

And do it fast

That man lived in this town

Til that pig took him down

And have you heard the sound

Of a man stop breathing, pleading?

I have been to the valley

And I have sung all her songs

Watch me sing

Watch me sing along

And I say

I have been to the mountain

And I have walked on his shore

I have seen but I can’t see him no more
