REWARD
Oh did the sea burst in a mighty swell
So did our captain come to in spite of himself
Half of our forty were at odds with him still
Half were for lovely virgin gold, Reward
Fast though our course began wonder soon waned
Passions performed so too did soon turn plain
Slow by our count to possess or prove to compare
Slow were the fountains to bestow Reward
I fought a fever fought to keep what I captured
Struggle I believed promised feast to me fastest
Long lived the resistance our labor alone
Long was our bliss when we let go, Reward
Out of the fire and into the firelight we rise
Out of the fire grows a rose
Inseparable fear and hope
It’s for patience I fought

Everytime I hear this album I groove like a tiny dancing Pomeranian getting a haircut. Anyone that hears this will definitely get blessed and funkified from the great Vulf. musicandmyth
