Song Review: “Sky Full of Rockets” by Otis Kerp | A Rock Discovery

Lyrics of Otis Kerp – Sky Full of Rockets

Im a runaway shadow
hiding in the fields
running from the bullies
that made me wanna leave
My preset was a common man
Maybe a job in a store
but I kept running from the story
A story written in stone

I left town this morning
and tried to look away
The factories and the markets
are begging me to stay
But the wheels keep turning
gently down the drain
I got no plan of learning
more about this place

I just got of the phone with Jesus
He said, child, you are on your own
I know I´ll never be a writer
Like Edgar Allan Poe
I might not be Davy Crocket
or even see the Alamo
We got a sky full of rockets
they say kid, you gotta long way to go

Everybody told me
Life is a winding road
I was a born on the border
between dust and gold
I am not getting any younger
but I not scared of getting old
I can be who I wanna be
go where I wanna go

I been running for a lifetime
always heading for the door
The higher you climb
the mightier the fall
but the road behind is burning
the one ahead goes on
I have tried to play smarter
gotta reap what I have sown
