Someday

Story Behind The Song

I wrote this during a very difficult time in my life when I didn't trust myself to keep a promise I made to myself. Thus, I would have to make the pledge to my mother, or someone I cared enough about to honor such a commitment.

Song Description

Slow, almost dirge like song pledging to break the bonds of captivity - perhaps addiction. Perhaps a toxic association. very dark while at the same time alluding to the optimistic promise of a new day, and a brighter future.

Lyrics

Oh, momma, momma,
gonna be a free young man someday.
Oh, momma, momma,
Gonna be a free young man someday,
Gonna take these chains,
And throw them all away.

Hey, little brother,
Don't you throw your life away.
Talking to you - hey, little brother,
Don't you throw your life away.
Spread your wings,
And fly yourself away.

Hey, little sister,
Don't believe in what they say,
You throw it away.
Talking to you - hey, little sister,
Don't believe a word they say,
Because they'll lie to you,
Until your dying day -

Come to me in the middle of the night
with your hair pulled back - your dress is tight, you say you love me,
ah you say you love me,

Talking 'bout the things you want to do - things I never knew that you knew
and you love me,
ah, you love me.

I never knew that a girl like you could ever make me feel the way you do,
ahh, hah, you love me.

Oh, momma, momma, momma, momma, gonna be a free young man some day,
Oh, momma, momma,
Gonna be a free you man some day,
Gonna spread these wings,
and fly my self away.

Oh, momma, momma, momma, momma, gonna be a free young man someday,
Someday, oh someday, I'm gonna be a free young man,
Oh, momma , momma,
gonna be a free young man some day,
gonna spread my wings,
and fly my soul away.
