lyrics

Come up to the mountain, you'll see all its fun. Find a fall by the hillside where the water used to run. The sun in your eyes makes you smile at the sky. Climb up to the top, see Capilla at the top. See the blue turn to darkness, see the water as it drops.
It came from the ceiling, we know not the meaning. Our hearts took to fleeting, our legs were a-wheeling. I'll pray to God, hope my body doesn't make a lightning rod.
The path at our feet was swallowed by a stream. Balancing was a need, finding falling easily. Saw a crowd at a river, found our fate was delivered. Traversed arm to arm, crossed that body without harm. Knowing not our bold future was to cross another river.
And as the sun slowly rises, karma comes in all different sizes. Pacha Mama don't bring me down. Finding lessons all over her land.
