All That You Can't Leave Behind
Something is about to give
I can feel it coming
I think I know what it is


I'm not afraid to die
I'm not afraid to live
And when I'm flat on my back
I hope to feel like I did


'Cause hardness, it sets in
You need some protection
The thinner the skin
I want you to know
That you don't need me anymore
I want you to know
You don't need anyone, anything at all


Who's to say where the wind will take you
Who's to say what it is will break you
I don't know which way the wind will blow
Who's to know when the time has come around
Don't wanna see you cry
I know this is not goodbye


In summer I can taste the salt in the sea
There's a kite blowing out of control on a breeze
I wonder what's gonna happen to you
You wonder what has happened to me


I'm a man, I'm not a child
A man who sees the shadow behind your eyes


Who's to say where the wind will take you
Who's to say what it is will break you
I don't know where the wind will blow
Who's to know when the time has come around
I don't wanna see you cry
I know that this is not goodbye


Did I waste it
Not so much I couldn't taste it
Life should be fragrant
Rooftop to the basement


The last of the rockstars
When hip-hop drove the big cars
In the time when new media
Was the big idea
That was the big idea
