Already Standing on the Ground


Cause I got a peaceful, easy feeling
And I know you won't let me down
Cause I'm already standing,
I'm already standing,
Yes, I'm already standing on the ground. ~ written by Jack Tempchin and recorded by the Eagles
Trying to rule the world,
to control those around us,
to please them so they love us,
to lie about them to belittle them,
to manipulate them,
to surpass them, to sway...
Such energy, such worry, such fear
wrapped up in the control.
To abandon dominance,
to leave each to their own,
cleaning only our street's side
is to reclaim the energy,
to replace worry with peace,
to calm the hurricane of fear...
is to find the easy feeling,
to stand firmly and gratefully
on serene and peaceful ground.
