Ben Apps - Off the Grid

We're vulnerable now as never before
To identity theft and cyber war
I'm never gonna be exposed to those risks no more
I'm going off the grid
I'm gonna smash my mobile
I'm covering my mobile home
In solo panels all on my own
I'm going off the grid
I'm going off the grid
My existence will be hid
From all authorities
I'm at one with the trees
I'm gonna raise my kid
On nuts and berries
You saw me on your walk in the woods
My hair was long I was covered in mud
I stunk to high heaven but my skin looked so good
It was the detox I needed
We got to my place I invited you in
To sample my nettle and dandelion gin
And turn you away from your life of sin
And join me off the grid
We're going off the grid
Our existence will be hid
From all authorities
We're at one with the trees
We're gonna raise our kids
On nuts and berries
You left at three and never returned
My offer of an eco life you spurned
For candy crush you pined and yearned
And I was all alone
And though my life was just and right
I dreamed about you every night
Wondering what you would do with your life
And if you would condone
Me going off the grid
My existence will be hid
From all authorities
I'm at one with the trees
I'm gonna raise my kid
On nuts and berries
I came back after seventeen years
And hugged you in a flood of tears
Please help me get over my fears
Of being hooked up to the grid
The world won't end and if it does
At least we had the two of us
The sun will envelope our planet and thus
We'll all be off the grid
We'll all be off the grid
Our existence will be rid
Of all societies
We're on the solar breeze
We'll never more raise kids
On nuts and berries
