Solid Ground (OurVinyl Sessions) - Marcus Foster, OurVinyl

Even though people follow gold

Doesn’t mean it shines in the dark

If we all do just what we’re told

It doesn’t mean you’ll find the spark

Friends can turn when things go wrong

It doesn’t mean that it’s their fault

We’ve all come here to help ourselves

All the goods laid in the vault

Some people open doors

Others tear their houses down

Some kids are prepared for wars

Others frightened of the crowd

Some streets come to an end

Others wind and know no bounds

And I’m just tryin' to pretend

I know how to tread on solid ground

Solid ground, solid ground

Solid ground, solid ground

Solid ground, solid ground

Even though people follow orders

Doesn’t mean it comes from the heart

Surrounded by a million borders

Till it’s time for us to part

Moon can make the coming seas

Threaten every man on board

We find ourselves upon our knees

We have nothing but a shield and a sword

Some people break their bones

Others break their self esteem

Some dogs stray from their homes

Some people never wake from their dreams

Some streets come to an end

Others wind and know no bounds

And I’m just tryin to pretend

I know how to tread on solid ground

Solid ground, solid ground

Solid ground, solid ground

Solid ground, solid ground

Solid ground, solid ground

Solid ground, solid ground

Solid ground, solid ground

Solid
