about

My personal adventure, meeting many wonderful people, travelling through South East Asia

"Everything in the story happened!"

lyrics

Verse 1:
So I set out on a quest to find myself, open my mind, Improve my health and so my journey went something like this....

I've seen Thai temples, tuk tuk rides for rental ladyboy shows which 
Were hashtag f#ckin mental and yeah I was caught grinding with one
I travelled 2 days down the Mekong river, seen waterfalls so stunning they make your bottom lip quiver, the sun shines every day in Laos

I've been quad trekking around the rice fields of Cambodia, stood on an ant’s nest
Got me feet got bit all over, but the local kids smile’s made the pain worthwhile! 
And so I arrived in Vietnam... an the first day... ah come down with the FLU! my nose was all runny and my snot was like glue

I missed out the trip to the Mekong Delta, spent two days in bed in a shivery hot swelter and so I face-timed me Mum
She said what all good Mum's say when your ill wrap up warm to keep out the chill and ended the call with “I love you my son!”
So I crawled out of bed and went down to the chemist I bought enough antibiotics to cure a flu epidemic and prayed this man flu would just do one!!

Pre-Chorus
So Travel Light, Travel Hard, Full-fill your inspirations and you’ll go far
So Travel light go yo! and Travel Hard
So Travel Light, Travel Hard, create ya motivations and you’ll go far
So Travel light go yo! and Travel Hard

Chorus
Moving on, on, I just keep moving on
Moving on, on and on
Moving on, on, I just keep moving on
Moving on, on and on

Verse 2:
Now feeling brand new un fully recovered from the FLU I thought I'd make light of our situation, airport delays and #Asia-time
So I whacked out the Ukulele handed out the percussion un began playing abit of Bob Marley un managed to kill us a few hours of time
Now our Vietnam trip was coming to an end so I said a teary goodbye to my new life-long friends un Jetted off for Myanmar
Now they call this the land of 2000 temples, renowned for its precious stones and metals un Let me to ya it’s an absolute Jem!!

I still had many more countries to visit, Harley ride, Scuba dive raise the bar I take it to the limit you know you gotta get wit it!!
An after over 25 flights travelling day and night and having seen so many beautiful sights, I think I'm ready... ready for home

So two days ago I finally arrived home feeling like I've exponentially grown an now I'm just chillin...sitting on my throne
I'm feeling liberated, invigorated but I'm dam cold like England's refrigerated
So it’s all engines go... I'm packing my bags for Mexico!!

Pre-Chorus:
So Travel Light, Travel Hard, have it large, get fucked up in bars!
So Travel light go yo! and Travel Hard
So Travel Light, Travel Hard, live your dreams and you’ll go far
So Travel light go yo! and Travel Hard

Chorus:
Moving on, on, I just keep moving on
Moving on, on and on
Moving on, on, I just keep moving on
Moving on, on and on

Middle 8:

As hard as I try… now my tears ah dried, I feel compelled to write this for the middle 8 
before I loose my vibe record the song and its just to late
 so here goes...Phnom Penh in Cambodia, the killing fields, the Khmer Rouge their mass slaughter, a repeat Nazi holocaust, millions of innocent lives lost



As time stood still Looking up at that huge Stupa 8000skulls ah lost souls to the gate keeper 
I felt my heart bleedin!! An the Blood stains spread on my vest 
An I'm draining till not a single drop left 
and It took all my strength not to sink depressed
, but I walk away knowing there’s to much good in this world! LIKE A RIVER FLOWING NEVER TO BE HELD!!

Pre-Chorus:
So Travel Light, Travel Hard, full-fill your inspirations and you’ll go far
So Travel light go yo! and Travel Hard
So Travel Light, Travel Hard, create your motivations and you’ll go far
So Travel light go yo! and Travel Hard

Final Chorus:
Moving on, on, I just keep moving on
Moving on, on and on
Moving on, on, I just keep moving on
Moving on, on and on

#Epic

THE END!!
