Light from Light (2019) by James Dean Cotton
Once our basic needs are met, all that's left is the quest for knowledge. Of course, meeting our basic needs isn't all that simple either.

Lyrics
From the day that I crawled out of the sea
I was only looking for the light
I let the waves have their gentle way with me
Covered up in water, green and white
Came the day that I finally took a breath
Cold air salt upon my tongue
Turned my back upon the fading water’s edge
Set a course for the rising sun
Nothing’s changed in a billion years
I still hold this holy instrument between my ears
Till there’s nothing but the call and the echo to hear
Listen for cannons and the fight
Nothing left but looking for the light
On the day I fell out of control
And into the arms of those I loved
Swimming under water, all the breath that I could hold was
Finally released to everyone
Nothing’s changed in a billion years
I still hold this holy instrument between my ears
Till there’s nothing but the call and the echo to hear
Listen for cannons and the fight
Nothing left but looking for the light
Nothing but the call and the echo to hear
Listen for cannons and the fight
Nothing left but looking for the light
