Just off a plane I already feel the strain It's not too funny in this heat Smells like off colour meat We're moving again Down in the depths You should have seen where I slept But if you knew me before I wasn't so hardcore You should have seen how I was kept
Chorus Now I'm stepping out into the light No time to wonder if it's wrong or it's right I've been hurting Hurting tonight Now I'm stepping out into the light
Up on the stage I just can't engage I feel slightly sick I ask myself, "What's wrong with me?" Life's what you make It's not just yours to take And with all of that sleaze You can take what you please But it gives you a heartache
Chorus Now I'm stepping out into the light No time to wonder if it's wrong or it's right I've been kicked down Kicked in the teeth Now I'm stepping out into the light
Go out on a limb Out where the lighting's dim Out where it hurts Out in the dirt Out where your wallet's thin Reach for the stars But, baby don't fall too far Dreams are to make Before you awake Where ever you are
Into the light 5X) Now I'm stepping out into the light 2x
Young girls get practice Under the blackness Outside the axis Of Christian praxis
The sermon's malice The silver chalice Are not so sacred As what is naked
You can't control it, no Don't want to save my soul Well come on Let's rock and roll
It's my nature to take of what I see Every creature knows the longing to be free
Deep in the city my father named me With words so pretty my mother shamed me Without much pity the teachers blamed me But could not tame me
Above the steeple the owl looks down At the holy people in their flowing gowns As the censer waves the frankincense north and south As the priest puts the bread in the people's mouths
Mother Nature must have made a man like me Every creature knows to take of what it sees Some want the preacher to show them what to be But I look to nature and I'm longing to be free
Mother Nature is beautiful to me Every creature knows to take of what it sees Some want the preacher to show them what to be But I'm made by nature and I'm longing to be free
Cause it's in my nature It's my nature Mother Nature Mother Nature Mother Nature
