I remember like yesterday,

Waking up before the birds

4 am and were out

I was very nervous

Planes over an ocean gave me the chills

But i was leaving the country

Why not be excited

We arrive waiting for the plan before the sun even is out

Walking on the plane that early

Falling asleep the second i got on it

Finally landed at our layover

Here goes nothing i tought

As i look over the planes wing i see nothing but

Death 

Water for ages 

No land near

The land i'm looking for popes up 

And we smack the ground landing across that ocean.

I walk off half asleep

Not knowing what i'm doing

Walking to that bus i seen stuff i'd never see here

A family of lizards roaming the streets like cats back home

A different style of life is here

More nature more open i love it

Walking up to lizards is dope

Biting my dad till it hangs off

Gripping like a pipe fit onto my dad's hand.

Ill never forgot that land of nature
