EL PLAN

Some come, others go
There are few left now
Gotta earn a living
Fucking money, fucking coins
Many won’t return
They’re crossing the border
The plan? Find a plan
In freedom serving time

A love, parents in Norway
For the folks from the town who are out there
I wish life would smile at us
With green and purple in our pockets
The flag won’t feed you
It doesn’t pay the rent, nor support your dreams (oh, no)
Many had to learn
That the big fish eats the small
What twists life takes
Because, my brother, you can’t even imagine
How everything you knew changes
Even the air changes when you breathe
Hey, babe, if you call, you lift me up
I need to come back, recharge my batteries
Fall asleep knowing you’re keeping me warm
Hear your guitar when you tune it
Yeah, I’m up all night on the corners
Full of pride and vitamins
I’m on a journey that never ends
It takes me to the sky or to ruin
Years go by and they don’t forget you
Between two worlds, they cross the line
Loaded, but without family
Sending money back home
Dedicated to those who are far away
Dedicated to those who are far away
Dad is getting old and your kids are growing
No one gives back what you’re losing
Dedicated to those who are out there
Keeping a whole family together
In the sea where there’s no flag
So nothing’s missing in the fridge

Poverty isn’t a virtue, unless it favors your freedom
Thanks to that freedom, I walked the world and learned
That there’s only one religion, love
There’s only one language, the language of the heart
There’s only one race, humanity
There’s only one God, love, and it’s everywhere

Some come, others go
There are few left now
Gotta earn a living
Fucking money, fucking coins
Many won’t return
They’re crossing the border
The plan? Find a plan
In freedom serving time

Some come, others go

Many won’t return
