about

Track 4 of a 21 song album written and recorded in 21 days during lockdown in South Africa because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

lyrics

All I know is things will be ok at the end of the day
Things will change but everything will turn out ok either way

Paranoid and fearful just throw it all away
Hope to catch the breeze and just watch as it floats into space
On the wind

Take some time to focus on the good in your life if you can
Breathe in deep and hold it for as long as you like when you can

Terrified and anxious just throw it all away
Wish it to the wind and just watch it get carried to space
On the wind

Try your best to practice just as hard as you preach
And the rest will fall in place with relative ease as they say

Tired, drained and angry just throw it all away
Trust the wind to catch it and carry it deep into space
On the wind
