lyrics

The past may creep up on you
But don't lose track
Fix your eyes on your dreams ahead
Sometimes the present slaps you
But don't turn back
Let the wind guide your every step

The future makes us all anxious
But don't lose track
Journey on and find your peace
Go ahead and create your own heaven
And don't turn back
Toward the hell inside your mind

Take your time
You will age like wine
You are gold refined
It's all evolution, child

You are stronger than any mountain
Go ahead and look around
You'll see,
Your eyes meet the sky
Just like a giant

Things will come to distract you
But don't lose track
Think of the joy that waits ahead
Strings of light to attract you
But don't look back
To avoid fear and darkness

Folks mature in stages
So don't turn back
We're all like sand in the hourglass
Go ahead and get drunk with purpose
And don't look back
Toward the doubt inside your mind

Take your time
You will age like wine
You are gold refined
It's all evolution, child

You are stronger than any mountain
Go ahead and look around
You'll see,
Your eyes meet the sky
Just like a giant

You're a part of the bigger picture
Giant, Giant
You're a part of the grand design
Giant, Giant
You're a part of the bigger picture
Giant, Giant
You defy space and time
