The Nomad by Kasland Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He rides the open roads, there’s not a care in his head
Not the type to let his Harley be an expensive chair in a shed
No wife, no kids, no friends or family
And both his parents are dead
So he’s always on the move, not to somewhere, but instead
To something that brings him peace, not one for sharing his bread
He was once asked what’s his story and he just stared and he said
His name, where he’s from
Not where he’s been, but where he’s come
Not what he’s seen, nor what he’s done
Doesn’t want to seem to be as numb
As he’s become, and life out on the road
Can be a journey sometimes
So he’s always out there burning some tires
’Til he gets where he’s going
As he gets to know no one
[Verse 2]
He calls his Harley Bonnie, so he gave her the same name as
His favorite singer cause she sings
Through the very pipes that became famous
For saving lives on the road, got the saddlebags and ape hangers
With a .45 in his cut in case he faces grave dangers
Cause Lord only knows what could happen
Lord only knows what he may face as
He lives the life of a rider, see, most are seen as gang bangers
And it’s a shame, it really is, that these tats and these patches
And the simple fact that it all matches
Gets people acting out, madness
Runs through the veins of the hateful
And it’s so painful, it’s sad, this
Must be the world that he lives in as he just tries to be driven
To keep his righteousness in him and all despite the opinion
Of the general population in this judgmental nation, forgive him
[Verse 3]
He stays out of business that isn’t his, wants no drama
What’s not his problem’s not his problem
That’s the way he was brought up
Though trouble finds its way to him
It’s something he wants no part of
Unless a helpless victim’s spotted, then best believe he’s the karma
He’s but a chivalrous gentleman, though he’s civil, a lot of
Folks fear him cause his appearance
Reflects the scum at the bottom
He has no tolerance for politics or all of this nonsense
And just the thought of it’s just nonexistent
His thoughts have been gone since
He hit rock bottom, hits the bottle
’Til it’s just God and his conscience
Yet full of confidence, heart’s soft as it gets and it probably causes
Him to show weakness at times
Though he shows his strength in his eyes
He’s just angel in disguise who finds his peace when he rides
He rides the open roads, there’s not a care in his head
Not the type to let his Harley be an expensive chair in a shed
No wife, no kids, no friends or family
And both his parents are dead
So he’s always on the move, not to somewhere, but instead
To something that brings him peace, not one for sharing his bread
He was once asked what’s his story and he just stared and he said
His name, where he’s from
Not where he’s been, but where he’s come
Not what he’s seen, nor what he’s done
Doesn’t want to seem to be as numb
As he’s become, and life out on the road
Can be a journey sometimes
So he’s always out there burning some tires
’Til he gets where he’s going
As he gets to know no one
