[Verse 1] I don't want to have feet of stone I don't want to have feet of stone I want to follow this river of life where It will have me go I don't want to have feet of stone [Verse 2] I don't want to have a dagger tongue I don't want to have a dagger tongue I don't want my words to be a weapon But a healing bond I don't want to have a dagger tongue [Verse 3] I don't want to have a heavy mind I don't want to have a heavy mind I don't want to hold these thoughts That are chains of iron I don't want to have a heavy mind [Verse 4] I want to have eyes of love I want to have eyes of love Count the beggar mans life precious as my own Offer my back for my brothers load I want to have eyes of love I want to have eyes of love
So this was on my "Discover Weekly" playlist on Spotify, and I felt like my soul immediately connected to the song. I listened to it 3 more times, then looked up the lyrics, listened to it again, found it on RUclips, watched it 2 more times. My soul is satisfied, and my heart is full.
I absolutely love this.... Birdtalker this is the first song I ever heard from you years ago. I will always be a fan of your sheer talent, music, and of this message. Beautifully done from start to finish. *Confession Time* I can't sing for the life of me but I do, cheesily enough when I'm alone, in the shower but most of the time while I am driving home at night after work. This is one song, I can honestly say that I listen to this song almost every single day or night. It helps me a little bit to just breathe throughout all lifes perpetual bullshit and reminds me who I am. Also, I'd love to hear a metal version of this but that just might be my weird ass. 😊 I hope you have a lovely night/day Birdtalker and all!
I just saw this on Facebook and had to come to RUclips to make sure I could subscribe and play this on repeat forever. These are some of the most raw, and real lyrics I have heard in years. This expresses such a deep message in the most simple, beautiful way. These types of songs change lives; your music will save people. You all should be very proud. New fan for life right here
I've probably listened to this 50+ times at this point ... and I just noticed the stereo separation on the recording. Great production work. Thank you to everyone involved. This is outrageously beautiful.
Thank you guys. I grew up christian and I was used to worshipping and I loved it. When I left Christianity that was one of the hardest parts for me, not having worship to connect with the energy out there and your music is what I needed to connect again. Thank you so much again.
I've known about these guys for about a year, and I've never looked at their subscribers or view counts. How does this channel have so few of each? They're so good! Side note: anyone else wonder about Zack's crazy, mind-of-its-own hand while he's singing?
haha yep I noticed it too, it's one of those gesticulations that artists do when they are intensely focused on their music...but it does come across a bit...peculiar

I use this as a prayer many times each day. It gets me through times I might not see through eyes love toward myself or others THANK YOU🙏♥️🙏😍🙏♥️
[Verse 1]
I don't want to have feet of stone
I don't want to have feet of stone
I want to follow this river of life where
It will have me go
I don't want to have feet of stone
[Verse 2]
I don't want to have a dagger tongue
I don't want to have a dagger tongue
I don't want my words to be a weapon
But a healing bond
I don't want to have a dagger tongue
[Verse 3]
I don't want to have a heavy mind
I don't want to have a heavy mind
I don't want to hold these thoughts
That are chains of iron
I don't want to have a heavy mind
[Verse 4]
I want to have eyes of love
I want to have eyes of love
Count the beggar mans life precious as my own
Offer my back for my brothers load
I want to have eyes of love
I want to have eyes of love
Wow. Ears are stunned. Magic made right there guys...PURE D MAGIC.
