Dig Deep
Dig deep,
Now is not the time
To act like sheep.
Yes it’s not easy to find
Some sense and connect
To our feet.
Dig deep
Maybe now it’s good to go down to our cellar
And take a peek
Dig deep, digging in the dirt
Will expose our fears
And a heart that hurts
Maybe we even think that death is here,
But just behind her, is always a second birth,
And under the layers, we’ll uncover
A hidden treasure, just waiting for us
Waiting to be discovered.
Dig deep,
The Moon she knows
And when we slow down or stop,
Whispers to our Souls
And reminds us
That we don’t belong in boxes and holes.
Dig deep
We all need to find our way back home
We were simply asleep and felt lost,
Separate and alone.
Dig deep,
Even when at first glance,
The wells seem empty and dry,
The road feels steep and it’s hard to advance
And the clouds, thick and cover the sky.
Dig deep,
Ignore your head
And take baby steps,
Like: cleaning the kitchen
And making your bed.
