Captain of the Cosmic Tide lyrics
Long before the first sunrise
Before kingdoms, before borders
There sailed a lone captain
Across the cosmic sea
Born beneath a crimson moon
Learned the stars would sing their tune
Dreadlocks dancing in the light
Guided by the satellites
Compass made of ancient suns
Never feared the smoking guns
Only carried truth and bass
Echoing through endless space
Raise the sails
Catch the solar wind
The voyage never ends
Captain of the cosmic tide
Sailing where the planets glide
Rasta soul and pirate pride
Keeping hope and love alive
Stars above become my crew
Every sunrise brings a view
No chains can hold this heart of mine
Captain of the cosmic tide
Nebula smoke across the sky
Comets blaze as we drift by
Every port another star
Home is never very far
Trading stories, trading songs
Teaching where we all belong
Every beat another key
Unlocking every galaxy
Solar winds
Guide I
Stars
Guide I
Ride
The tide
Captain
Forever
No king
No throne
The universe
Is home
No riches
No gold
Only stories
Yet untold
Captain of the cosmic tide
Feel the bass become your guide
Raise your heart and lift your eyes
Sail beneath eternal skies
Every soul can find the way
If you let the music play
Freedom rides the sound tonight
Captain of the cosmic tide
Set your sails
Catch the light
We'll meet again
Beyond the stars
