Brother Baker feat. Father - The Sloth

from SpinTunes 20 Round 1 by Spintunes

/

about

Is it a song about a person grasping the opportunity to overcome sloth, one of the deadly sins, or is it a song about a sloth finding a mate? Both?

lyrics

I'm taking each week day by day
What they're sayin doesn't matter anyway
I carry a world upon my back
Each step a struggle, every breath a gasp
One day while asleep, I hear a shriek
The tree of possibility quickly grows from a seed
Is it worth the energy?

The sun sets low, the moon rises high
In the darkness, I'll climb and I'll glide
Through the leaves, I'll search and I'll find
The missing piece to my state of mind
I move to go achieve my dreams
A raging river right in front of me
The river is wide, and oh so deep
I'm not discouraged, with this urge inside of me
The water start pourin over my head

Is it worth the energy?
The sun sets low, the moon rises high
I won't let the devil get in my way
It may be slow but I'll make it there someday,

Climbing, Clinging, tooth and nail
I'll give my last breath before I fail
The sun sets low, the moon rises high
In the darkness, I'll climb and I'll glide
Through the leaves, I'll search and I'll find
The missing piece to my state of mind

The sun sets low, the moon rises high
In the darkness, I'll climb and I'll glide
Through the leaves, I'll search and I'll find
The missing piece to my state of mind
