There's a world I must see
Horizon's that I have not explored
The kings are not all they seem and courage
It's no reward where a man can foresee
A time when he can finally say
I'm more than my father can be
The master of all I survive
To be truly alive
I need to sell where the strongest survive
And find my way through the wind and the spray
To a life that I never known
A destiny that I can call my own
Master John, Thomas you are here
Yes and I will be up again soon
Not soon enough your father knows you are back and
He is a mad as a hornet I don't give a damn what
The old man thinks I will not be forced into a life
My father had mapped out for me
And i don't need anyone to tell me what they think
I should be I like to be truly alive
I need to sell where the strongest survive
And find my way through the wind and the spray
To a life that I never known
A destiny that I can call my own
And I will find what it is that I need to be truly
Well well what brings the great adventurer back to
Lonely Chattel I supposed it would have inconvenienced
you to send word of your arrival
We barely communicated when I lived here
I figured why break with tradition
Dammit John do you think that I built all this
Just to see my son all ropes for a living
I think you built it so you would not have to see me at all
The foolish son believed go again go again
He can find a better way
Always the same old story
Where I can proceed
When will you decide
You don't know what I need to be truly alive
You don't know what you are saying
I need to sell where the strongest survive
And find my way
It's not enough to dream about my life
The way you wish it could be
So let me prove I am
A man who can stand against sea
You will see to be truly alive
I need to sell where the strongest survive
And find my way through the wind and the spray
To a life that I never known
A destiny that I can call my own
Why can't you see that
It's up to me I know
What you mean to me to be truly alive
