Lyrics to Blue Jays by Dowil (aka Will Pacarro)

Every day’s a new day, that’s a true phrase/
Just listen for the sounds and the chirps of the Blue Jays/
There’s always two ways on a path to choose fate/
Just do what you want and not what the many few say/
And be proud of the life that which you made/
You did it with your own two hands, that’s your proof (aye)/
Just know there’s a due date/
On which your youth fades, so what if you lose face/
Trying to chase butterflies and blue jays/
With the heart of a child following where your mood sways/
Ain’t nothing wrong with chasing what you gotta see/
Love the life you live is my one philosophy/
The past is the past, you can’t change it/
It shows what made you, you, like a mirror you can only face it/
You can try to hide, what you don’t wanna see/
But it doesn’t heal the scars that are hidden beneath/
So every day, in every way, make it anything just not what never became/
Cuz its the moment of now, that’s to be seized/
I’m not saying be reckless, but live more purposefully/
You only live once, you can surely make it count/
It doesn’t mean to take your life and waste it down/
People may call you trash, tattered, or weathered/
But one man’s trash is another man’s treasure/
Only a fool’s goal, will earn him fools gold/
Yes, that’s a fool’s road where he’ll find a fool ‘lone/
And I’m that fool though, chasing a blue jay/
Into the night until the sun brings a new day/

And as awkward as that may actually be, this is happening to me/
So i keep it moving, stay true to roots/
Branch into the life who bears good fruit/

So every day, in every way, make it anything just not what never became/
Cuz it’s a new day, this is a true phrase, be proud of what you made and fly like that blue jay/ (x2)
