Spaceman
By Douglas DoNascimento
This song explores themes of existential discovery, the search for meaning, and the pursuit of higher wisdom. It portrays a “spaceman” navigating the vastness of space, symbolizing a journey of personal growth and self-reflection. While exploring the cosmos, the spaceman faces mistakes, uncertainty, and false promises but is urged to seek a deeper truth beyond the surface. The song invites the spaceman (and the reader) to embrace the wisdom of God, whose presence is felt even in the vast unknown. Ultimately, it encourages understanding one’s true value, seeking divine wisdom, and finding purpose through faith, leading to a greater unity and understanding of the universe.
The Lyrics
In a higher place, among the stars, we roam,
Crown to the King, in the void we call home.
Spaceman, you know nothing of what’s yet to come,
What you see is not what you get, this is not yet home.
Feel HIS presence, HIS essence so keen,
Read HIS journey, from HIS trials glean.
HIS masterclass, the beacon for life,
Guiding through darkness, HIS wisdom’s Light.
Flying to the moon, full outfits of mistakes,
Wrapped in aluminum foil, a broken heart, and a headache.
What would you do, if you could do anything?
What advice would you give yourself?
In the silence of space, a whisper so bold,
False promises glitter like gold.
Spaceman, you’re searching for something more,
A cosmic secret, behind the wrong door.
Feel HIS presence, HIS Spirit so free,
From your journey’s story, inspiration I see.
HIS masterclass, the beacon for life,
Proclaiming through the cosmos, HIS endless Might.
Flying to the moon, full outfits of mistakes,
Wrapped in aluminum foil, a broken heart, and a headache.
What would you do, if you could do anything?
What advice would you give yourself?
In the vast unknown, YOU are the treasure untold,
A mystery, a wonder, more precious than gold.
Spaceman, your journey, a lesson profound,
In the echoes of space, a new hope can be found.
Flying to the moon, full outfits of mistakes,
Wrapped in aluminum foil, a broken heart, and a headache.
What would you do, if you could do anything?
What advice would you give yourself?
Spaceman, in your discovery, accept The Way,
A higher Truth, where dreams sway.
Crown to the King, the universe unfolds,
In the unity of beings, a story told.
