Inspired by travel, this song, and the cover art that represents it, is about determination, transformation, growth, and doing what it takes to follow our dreams.

lyrics
I am low to the water, right at the surface of the bay
And I am a mountain’s daughter, but I am not afraid
I have begged for these moments, sacrificed many things for my time
I am just more whole now, for what I’ve held in my sight
And I’ve been frozen in this hunk of blue, like a dancer waiting to make her move
And today I flow, thanks to the sun’s glow, down to the ocean where all the good water goes
And the sun dictates my fate, I sneak out of town like a high noon thief
to be surrounded by water, waist deep in the cool relief
Valley walls fill my horizon, red stone hewn from history
the greatest art of all time, it’s future none can foresee
