Waskaganish Community - Small House Lyrics

I'm afraid of change, afraid of growing up
But it's all the same, my home has showed me love
Though I gotta leave, I have these dreams to fulfill
Before my world is done and gone

Even though I'm scared, nothing is holding me back
I know where I'm from, my elders been on the path
They've been through the storm, fighting for my future
Now I'm here, showing what we have

When the road gets rough
These eyes get low
My soul needs love
So I will show

I'm a small house
Ready to open the door now
Finding my way out

The river pulls me back
Underneath the waves
I'll keep swimming on
Hoping I get saved

Do you hear me now?
I feel so afraid
I am screaming loud
Do you know my name?

'Cause I'm a light if I just let my colors show
I look up to the sky and I just want to go
I feel like flying when the Heavens touch my soul, my soul

'Cause I've been given life, and it won't go to waste
Built up on a rock, and that's how my home is made
And when I'm falling that is when I'll hold my faith, my faith

When the road gets rough
These eyes get low
My soul needs love
So I will show

I'm a small house
Ready to open the door now
Finding my way out

I'm a young girl, with big dreams
Wanna go far, wanna see things
The world is big, gotta live free
Wanna share my heart, do you get me?
Blue skies, gotta go with it
Dark times, so I put a little hope in it
My soul singin', wanna open the door
I know we've been chosen for more

I'm a young guy here, with a big heart
But sometimes I fear, I don't think smart
Wanna light up the dark world and give sparks
But when I lose my drive, gotta switch cars
Live hard, never give up, reach high
Paint pictures that's how I see life
Climb mountains taking a steep stride
I'm awake, let me show what I dream like

When the road gets rough
These eyes get low
My soul needs love
So I will show

I'm a small house
Ready to open the door now
Finding my way out

Finding my way out
Finding my way out
Finding my way out
Finding my way out

When the road gets rough
These eyes get low
My soul needs love
So I will show

I'm a small house
Ready to open the door now
Finding my way out
