I like to walk with Poppop
He always takes his time
He never makes me hurry up
(His steps are slow like mine)

I like to walk with Poppop
He is unrushed like me
He breaks me of Time's rusted chains
Like eagles, we fly free

I like to walk with Poppop
His soul is young like mine
Time grasps no significance
Carefree is so purely defined
