Everything feels right
Took a chance
Didn’t let it fly by
Sky dilating
Confidence missing
Keep counting all the time
Ka puritia ngā tikanga kia mau
Ka titia rā ki te ngākau kia tina
Ko ngā akoranga
tuku iho
Cloud 9
For a moment
Then I fall behind
Kinda poetic
sky separating
Pride deflating
Keep counting all the time
When I walk
When I sleep
And when I wake!
Ka tāheia hei whakakai marihi
Kia āwhina
Kia tiaki
Kia ārahi
Mokomoko - a translation
Chorus: We do our best to hold onto the right ways
We hold it in our heart until it is fixed
The teachings
handed down
Bridge: Wear it around your neck as a beautiful ornament
To help you
To watch you
To guide you
