Calling Your Name
An Original Song by Jacques Kuno
2023
I’m sorry but it looks to be that you’re carefree without the worry
That’s been dragging me down
How do you go ahead with storm clouds still rumbling
Why don’t the winds beat you down?
So I come calling your name but it’s not from the shame of falling down
Just look around and then you’ll see
I’m speaking for the people who are tethered to the ground
How long’s it been since you lost a race
Be ahead or face the kind of wrath that pulls you down
Deeper than you’ve ever been
I know it’s hard to find a face in the mirror staring back unclear
Your face is clear and welcoming
So I come calling your name but it’s not from the shame of falling down
Just look around and then you’ll see
I’m speaking for the people who are tethered to the ground
And they’ve all just been waiting for a moment to cash in
On a dream that’s been waiting for them
Give ‘em a chance and watch them dance
I’ve been hearing all the stories of every single karma
But to believe it all can knock you down before you stand
And where’d you learn to turn something into nothing?
What does it cost to find that peaceful remedy to all this
Chaos flying free, deep within my inner being
I lost my way I’m told to find the cold okay but I’m not ready for
The fear to be stopping me
So I come calling your name but it’s not from the shame of falling down
Just look around and then you’ll see
I’m speaking for the people who are tethered to the ground
And they’ve all just been waiting for a moment to cash in on a dream that’s been waiting for them
give ‘em a chance and watch them dance
I’ve been hearing all the stories of every single karma
But to believe it all can knock you down before you stand
Where’d you learn to turn something into nothing?
Where’d you learn to turn something into nothing?
Oh oh oh….oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ohhh
And with all this bad karma all the people just wanna believe in something
And yet I see the mountain leaning and you’re not screaming at all
until you are until you are
I stand back and see you keeling over, I’m shocked to find the mountain in my way
and I hear you saying
It’s the fear that gives the reason to get up on your feet and lead you on the way
So if I feel afraid again I’ll shout out for the people tethered to the ground
they’re around me now
You see the enemy is fear but we can survive it here
If we take a stand and face it down
Now that you’ve told us how
Something can weigh nothing at all
That fear will weigh nothing at all.
