From the recordings The Edge You Frayed and Best Of Tim Erickson (For EPK)
This one is about how ego will mess things up, but how you can be connected to others & part of something bigger instead!
Lyrics
“No Egos On
This Trip”
(Verse 1)
It ain’t how fast you go, deep groove and take it slow
Just try to understand, that it’s all about the music that’s in your hands
Felling heals my soul, it chased away my ghosts
I know and understand, that the way that I’ve been feeling is where I stand
(Pre chorus)
Tell me how you’re feeling now my friend?
Feeling loud with all the life you give
Give what sets you free
(Chorus 1)
Too dark to see the light, flying like a plane on a dead end flight
Where’d you go?
Living out your life with a heart of stone
Million dollar bragging is all you know
I’ll never understand
(Post Chorus)
Hey, it’s a problem, that won’t let you feel again
All you need to understand, to feel connected, the objective that’s at hand
That thing will sink your ship, no egos on this trip
(Verse 2)
It ain’t how fast you go, deep groove and take it slow
No egos in this show, it spoils the trip, you know
Got cherry tangerine, if’s all I’ll ever need
Just try to understand that it’s all about the music in your hands
(Pre chorus)
Tell me how you’re feeling now my friend?
Feeling loud with all the life you give
Give what sets you free
(Chorus 1)
Too dark to see the light, flying like a plane on a dead end flight
Where’d you go?
Living out your life with a heart of stone
Million dollar bragging is all you know
I’ll never understand
(Post Chorus)
Hey, it’s a problem, that won’t let you feel again
All you need to understand, to feel connected, the objective that’s at hand
That thing will sink your ship, no egos on this trip
