Your Own Ride - David Crosby, Michelle Willis, Becca Stevens

Love is wings

Keeps us in the air

Truth can be hard

But at least it’s really there

Not just an image

But the substance deep inside

Truth, I give you, my child

To take with you on

Your own ride

You will ride with the owls at night

Your own ride

Sometimes you’ll flee

Sometimes you’ll fight

Fear is the mind killer

The creator of rage

A consul is wisdom

When it comes with age

They watch it step the passage

Each path that you take

Each thing you do

And all the choices you make

To face up to evil

And to see it through

Truth, I give you, my child

To take with you on

Your own ride

You will ride with the owls at night

Your own ride

Let your good heart guide you

Your own ride

Sometimes you’ll flee

Sometimes you’ll fight

'Cause I been thinking about dying

And how to do it well

How to stand up and face it

Or just lie where I fell

It’s a matter of honor

Having stood up to might

To spend my last hour

Clearing a path

For your own ride

You will ride with the owls at night

Your own ride

I will be there beside you, child

Your own ride

You will ride with the owls at night

Your own ride

Sometimes you’ll flee

Sometimes you’ll fight
