Don't keep me poor but keep me free
Help me know who I am supposed to be
Show me which flowers to plant in my garden
Tell me the truth and skip the lie
Either way I can tell by the look in your eyes
Help me remember the dearly departed
Can we build a mansion
Can we build a mansion
And open every window every door
If we're all out of beds you can sleep on the floor
Just a place to stay if you washed up on these shores
Can we build a mansion
Don't let me lose what makes me strong
Help me remember to come back home
When the weight of the world can't be carried
And in the moments when you need a breath
Help me to give til I got nothing left
May I be a voice for everyone who's come before me
Can we build a mansion
Can we build a mansion
And open every window every door
If we're all out of beds you can sleep on the floor
Just a place to stay if you washed up on these shores
Can we build a mansion
