Motives - Makeshift Homes lyrics

Though we are not bound by blood You will remain a part of me And though our time together may be short I will remember you and everything you've done And I promise I am here for you Because you were there for me When it's time to leave this place Will your bones be next to mine? A welcoming presence brings a clarity that I have come to know as my saving grace I want to go through life and see this world with eyes unclouded by hate Day by day we feel the push and the pull See the sparrows with the vulture hearts Up above they survey the ground for those who have lost their way But we are eagles and I implore you to ask not the sparrow how an eagle soars I don't care about your history It doesn't matter anymore In this life Nothing promised, nothing owed Stop changing who you are for acceptance Everyone makes mistakes so just let them be Mistakes-That's all they'll ever be Every one a stone in a landslide Piling up at the bottom Be that as it may, we have the strength One by one we'll clear the debris The weight of my thoughts lies heavy on my mind And I know that you're the same way Our hands in the dirt We'll build makeshift homes Wherever we go We'll be together Though we are not bound by blood You will remain a part of me I will remember you
