I’ve always been somewhat of a determined dreamer …Naively positive, an idealistic leaner I see a way that things could be; a different schema I lay it all out on the line, a future, cleaner With greater awareness, where people care less About material gain…they’d rather fairness Amongst all beings under this sky so blue We co-create a new world, this time we follow through To make a lasting change, cos more & more awake Yes day by day awareness grows in seeing whats at stake Identifying imbalances, causing all the problems Correcting and challenging the status quo’s wrongness See once many years ago I felt all alone But now see tipping points galore that threaten the throne Because there’s only so much crap that people swallow Before they see the promises as lies that ring hollow Determined dreamer, determined dreamer I know you’ve got it in your head the grass is greener Determined dreamer, determined dreamer You live in all of us and in your heart you’re eager So where to from here now that a spade’s a spade And we all see there’s important choices to be made Consult a moral compass and accept no less Than freedom for all and redefining of progress Cos one human being doesn’t have the answers That blind following has rendered us as cancers Malleable, deprived and with lowered standards It’s crazy when existence aint the way we planned it So what we do now is of great importance… The path is long and there's no hope for shortness… The answers are here, but old ways hold them back But I’m quite aware that we can right the wrong track What do we want…no more bullshit confusing me! What do we need…no criminal acts with impunity! What do we want…bodies boosted with immunity! What do we need…a local living community! Determined dreamer, determined dreamer I know you’ve got it in your head the grass is greener Determined dreamer, determined dreamer You live inside us all and in your heart you’re eager So let’s imagine a place where we’re all connected No locks on doors, no need to feel protected A place where we share with each and all Where, yes, you may stumble…but never fall! No place for competition with another But of co-operation with each other Where Community's a spirit, not an empty word And your outcome is mirrored with the rest of the herd We’re pieces to a puzzle of immeasurable worth As puzzle pieces we're connected to the earth And there's no place for irresponsible power And we’re no longer enslaved to the final hour We understand our place in this great cosmos Consciousness feeds spirit instead of what was No more faith in blind dogmas and such And no hidden hand to ensure us in its clutch Determined dreamer, determined dreamer I know you’ve got it in your head the grass is greener Determined dreamer, determined dreamer You live inside us all and in your heart you’re eager

So I shine my light on this dim-lit path Back and forth emotion…do I cry or laugh Are there others out there or am I alone? Gotta forge a way without being shown Uncover hidden depths within Dwell in the moment…push through the din Of this swirling vortex of my mind Cut twirling thoughts that try to bind And It’s slow going, but we’re sewing The seeds for the crops of a future glowing …And now I see more with me And that’s a damn good thing cos the slopes are slippery Gotta network quickly Overcome barriers, get rid of the sickly Remnants, from an old age past To an equal standing on stage at last These floating lights These other souls Crystalline structure Give birth…unfold I don’t care who you are, where you came from All have gifts, but some have the game wrong Using skills for the wrong side But this will change, like the moving tide Cos self preservation is a noble aim But not if actions exploit or maim Encouraging a healthy questioning Is the only type of quest I bring Instead of rewards for cash made fast Ever widening divides of class Short-cuts & quick surprises A baron future for a hoard of misers Challenging times we face indeed But soon there’ll be no space for greed Let’s pull together and find the key! Turn on these lights so we all can see! These floating lights These other souls Crystalline structure Give birth…unfold We navigate, gravitate to knowing Counterpoint to where force is flowing Light a spark in a patch of dark Float up high like a pulsing quark With courage to stand in spite of evil Strength to lead without being feeble Many solutions wait to be cast We all have knowledge to form a vast Matrix of self determined people In harmony…creating equal Chances to effect some change Support each other in this new age To work with nature…not against it Engage our problems…not fence sit If we need to we’ll work outside the system And create success…so they’ll have to listen These floating lights These other souls Crystalline structure Give birth…unfold

Welcome to my life or should I say…my curse It’s not that bad, but my mind makes it worse I feel alone & lost in my creative purpose Like a touch of frost in a boiling furnace A solo force…driven by my soul Looking for applause to validate my role As a tortured artist, I make…but flounder It’s hard enough…being plagued by doubters I need to seek balance on every dimension I need to speak and challenge with intention Cos I can’t sit back, think - “that’s that” Gotta rise, spit fire; on a phat track This confused being living in this physical Needs to find a way to remain spiritual Used to think I could do it by myself But now realise…I must seek some help Am I the only one who feels it? Never mind the doubters gotta just forgive em…yeah, yeah They just put me on my mission Never mind the doubters because I’m soul driven…yeah, yeah I think about the doubter lodged in my head I wanna rip it out wish it were dead Cos past-life crap bubbles to the surface Creates conflict, tells me I’m worthless I try to shut it out…but I can’t As much I want to forget…I shan’t Cos, in truth…I gotta heal the internal Create a clear channel to the force eternal And there are those who made me feel abandoned Who weren’t there to support, but left me stranded Some left the musical path, unsure I understand, but can’t shut that door Sometimes I wanna quit it hurts too much Am I going nowhere? Am I losing touch? Though I feel kindred spirits come soon I gotta march on and erase the gloom Am I the only one who feels it? Never mind the doubters gotta just forgive em…yeah, yeah They just put me on my mission Never mind the doubters because I’m soul driven…yeah, yeah There’s no rest for the weary eyed soldier Though it’s a long and lonely road we’ve travelled miles and miles upon You possess much more than they got on ya And if you fall then dust yourself off keep on driving on that soul I’ve tried to fill my life with another path But when I walk away I wind up at the start Something compels me, tells me “STAY” It’s bigger than me, it won’t go away I can’t stop even if I wanted to My mission needs me to follow through Not about end goals, but the process To make spirit whole, it accepts no less So battle weary, I walk lockstep Eyes fixed and alert, seeking what’s next To climb this mountain to higher self Activate through music…cos it helps Bridge gaps between the divine and I To stay positive in my mind’s eye I know i’m not alone in the way I feel And it’s this sole fact that helps me deal Am I the only one who feels it? Never mind the doubters gotta just forgive em…yeah, yeah They just put me on my mission Never mind the doubters because I’m soul driven…yeah, yeah Am I the only one who feels it? Never mind the doubters gotta just forgive em…yeah, yeah They just put me on my mission Never mind the doubters because I’m soul driven…yeah, yeah

Acid Tears 03:13
I shed a tear for humans on a mountain range Yet ponder plans for positive change Valleys unfold - before my eyes Natural beauty no civilised disguise The purity moves me - my mind flies Receiving knowledge that I find wise Above the snow line…peace & silence Away from life with a vile edge I drink from the purest mountain streams Energise with power beyond my dreams No worries - or pressures here As I gaze into waters crystal clear Negative influence dissolves Time stands still yet Earth revolves The force of nature, free and strong Insisting its here I belong These acid tears, they’ve flowed for years Corrode my soul, expose my fears Reconnect on Gaia’s sphere Accelerate what we hold dear But I turn the corner, see a sickly river Impacts of humanity make me shiver No flow hydroelectric projects Distortion - perverted concepts Trucks spray dust obscuring views Like tell-lie-vision’s mainstream news Fake pictures painted, get acquainted With dominant culture’s progress unabated It rape’s - subjugates the feminine Dominant males don’t remember when Balance existed, before it shifted Will it be restricted…with chaos lifted? When soon the natural order is clear We find peace - reducing fear Experienced daily, in the way we Treat one another in a system failing These acid tears, they’ve flowed for years Corrode my soul, expose my fears Reconnect on Gaia’s sphere Accelerate what we hold dear When we live in harmony with the land And don’t just take…but lend our hand Start to conserve and not to pillage Our environment becomes a connected village Not hopeless fiends, we’ve got the means Co-dependence, flowing streams Of pooled resources, joining forces Resilient, protected we form an orbit A natural system - closed loop With positive feedback we recoup From old ways of hopeless strife Become one with all, one with life A place where trees blanket the slopes Remind us of our lives of hopes To flourish…from wherever planted To nourish Earth not take it for granted These acid tears, they’ve flowed for years Corrode my soul, expose my fears Reconnect on Gaia’s sphere Accelerate what we hold dear

Cerebration 02:56
I fall out of love with life sometimes And that’s when I seek but do not find Wading deep in the recess of my mind Penetrating the steepest of inclines But substances let me access more When they knock on the old perceptive door I get a fleeting peek, but not for long The door slams shut…I’m forced to move on Find another way, with a calm approach To sit in silence with a divine coach Present in the now there’s no reproach A pleasant moment to reach out and float Suspending time untangling binds Forging neural pathways, DNA unwinds These new potentials…it’s consequential Cos it’s cerebration, like this instrumental I know you You know I do You can do Just what you want to To balance and heal is my main cause Close wounds that separate me from source Not ready to stop chemical assistance But in time it can happen with persistence Right now, it’s a welcome addition To aid in my own spiritual attrition And I know it’s not the best way But when I press play, I lose stress hey I wish this heightened state could stay Break thought loops, no more groundhog day No permanent answers to be found here But a glimpse of a way out is made clear So I take it for the gift that it is Branch out implement, make sure I don’t miss This opportunity for a shot at purity To Internalise the lesson so fluidly I know you You know I do You can do Just what you want to Cos I know that I can do it Connect to my higher self and get to it Anyone can expand their thought Better to be free, than to stay caught Cos I know drugs are the last resort But that battles fought, so I change port Reconnect to the omniscient force Instead of pressing play…I should press pause Look within, find answers there Stop plumbing those old wells of despair Mental stimulation, spiritual vibration Higher planes of being pivotal realisation Ooohhh…I may be onto something The source of all, the only one thing This Oneness, more complex than Shallow chemical realms made by man I know you You know I do You can do Just what you want to

So here I am again drawn to the flux Up, down, in, out…too much Hard to stay equanimous When life always kicks up dust Yet I see that, try to be that Change in awareness…for me thats Hard…led by blind reaction Can’t give my mind satisfaction I won’t lay down for this friend of mine Ego attachment in my mind Perception - it’s a trap Like an endless loop in fact …When it dictates how I act This conditionings like a pact Made without my own cognition It won’t let me stop and listen I won’t lay down down down oh no I won’t I won’t lay down down down again I won’t lay down for you oh friend of mine I won’t lay down for you and that’s the end We’re dealing with that little tug at your sleeves from the ego Some of us feel it more than others…I know I do It can be the cause of great suffering This is my healing release of that energy I’m in control, I’m no longer your captive Yet there’s more work to be done, just listen. Depression is a deep prison A place I often visit Consciousness…i’m often with it But perception gets me twisted The sensation draws me down My reaction keeps me bound I should observe with detachment Not pile it up like a catchment Oh well guess I gotta learn the hard way Keep repeating til I can’t play This frustrating game no more Take away my bat and ball Change imposed, refrain from those Actions that take a strained approach When dealing with external sources I remember these internal forces I won’t lay down down down oh no I won’t I won’t lay down down down again I won’t lay down for you oh friend of mine I won’t lay down for you and that’s the end The end is near, never fear The light at the end of the tunnels clear I look inside, find peace of mind Work out kinks that try to hide I bring them - to the surface See them as they are…so nervous Accept the past aversions With the future cravings worthless Being rooted in the present Is the best lifetime investment So i’m mindful of sensation Along with my respiration These are clues to my salvation And they help my elevation Aware and balanced is the goal Only this makes me whole I won’t lay down down down oh no I won’t I won’t lay down down down again I won’t lay down for you oh friend of mine I won’t lay down for you and that’s the end

This is a venting of a voice dissenting Some say nothing’s wrong, well shit I say there’s plenty For one…concept of ownerships a twisted joke It’s used to control…such a screen of smoke Cos we’ve never ever had true democracy When centralised bureaucrats dictate poverty Saying “Stay off of that land, it’s not your property! “You gotta pay to exist cos life’s not for free” But fuck that…it’s slavery, taxes too! Got no control over what they’re directed to Information asymmetry makes facts hidden see Leading us astray to react differently Cos when we know the full story, assert our rights There’s no way we’ll be in our current plight Been this way for ages, now it’s getting flagrant Non compliance & subversion, let’s make it blatant So start the commotion I’m sick of coasting Waiting for these padlocked doors to open It’s a - take back - from the apex Exposing these hacks and the way they flex So start the commotion We’re sick of coasting Waiting for these padlocked doors to open It’s an all out take back from the apex Exposing these hacks and the way that they flex Lets draw attention to this insurrection Lots of false starts, shut down in detention I take my hat off to those who’ve paved the way The struggle hasn’t stopped and so we slave away  Making connections, activists god bless them Taking stands for injustice, no concessions… Cosmic shifts, energies undone Tell me when is the time for us to overcome And be one… Ok it’s happening, at the fringes of the system Outside, it’s alright, a new ways with them Living through the heart, some say it’s a given But from where I see it we’re still enmeshed Manipulated & controlled till out of breath So I write my words hoping my voice is heard And when I find my tribe i’ll be as free as a bird So start the commotion We’re sick of coasting Waiting for these padlocked doors to open It’s a - take back - from the apex Exposing these hacks and the way they flex So start the commotion I’m sick of coasting Waiting for these padlocked doors to open It’s a…take back… It’s the last time I make a song like this…because that which I resist persists… Now that I’ve therapeutically released, I put my energy into the new story of peace So many barriers to freedom, yo it’s hard to see them Disinsentivized, but in the end we’ll beat them Cos it’s all in the mind…and we’re no longer blind Critical mass aint yet reached…but there’s still time Cos love is universal…the one true thing With love at our dispersal its what we bring When we’re positive, that’s a gift Essential ingredient of the paradigm shift Our hearts beat deep, we’ll fix this rift As long as we keep doing right we’ll uplift Agorism…natural authority We’re all sovereign people with autonomy Self directed, self determined, we’re worth it Breaking free from parasites and filthy vermin I’m tired of preaching like a priest at a sermon Just invoking change so god damn let’s birth it! So start the commotion We’re sick of coasting Waiting for these padlocked doors to open It’s an all out take back from the apex Exposing these hacks and the way that they flex So start the commotion We’re sick of coasting Waiting for these padlocked doors to open It’s a…take back from the apex Exposing these hacks and the way that they flex

I know you see Just what it is that you do to me Put me through hell, but I bounce right back I know you’re free To give me just what you think I need But you will see that i’ll stay on track As I wake up…with the morning haze I realign my mind to shake off the daze Don’t wanna think about the bad shit, cos it plays On emotions crazy, for days and days …I’d rather float high and drift away To survey my life and skip through the fray Cos right now…I wanna celebrate life Postpone my thoughts on the world’s strife It’s crucial to take time out to breathe Or else a buildup can make us seethe …A shift in thought is just whats needed Look into my eyes, you can see that I meant it I’m unencumbered, I feel a hundred Percent cos my bad thoughts days are numbered And yes I know…they’ll be here again But that’s cool…because I’ve made amends I know you see Just what it is that you do to me Put me through hell, but I bounce right back I know you’re free To give me just what you think I need But you will see that i’ll stay on track The meaning of life is experience All paths lead there…but there’s interference We’re knocked off track but we bounce right back With wisdom; we learn how best to act We’re a multi-dimensional being Having a human experience it seems But if we break it down…spin it round and round We can achieve all of our dreams Life’s there to master…but to ascend faster We gotta learn lessons to avoid disaster Or else we’re served what we deserve Over and over…til we have learned Where this journey takes us is up to us How strong it makes us, we can only trust That the path laid out will serve us best With what we need so we can pass the test I know you see Just what it is that you do to me Put me through hell, but I bounce right back I know you’re free To give me just what you think I need But you will see that i’ll stay on track

So here we are gather round Cos spells abound within this sound With open channels, peace is found No hidden meanings…are you down? Time has come for revelation Therapeutic celebration Give homage to this new vibration Lets tune to this station Transmitted from the source of all The healing force has made it’s call We’re conduits to heal and love So manifest the purest stuff Let’s pull it out from the ether Then push it out through a speaker Don’t tell me we can’t do neither Cos I’ll make you a believer So tired of false deceivers Just hired to bolster the fever Lets cut out the root so it won’t bare fruit Cause the system to reboot We’ve got the power to draw upon Upload good vibes, log on Easier said than done…I know I’ve still gotta work on things to grow Yet, hypocrites say “told you so” Yet, deep within - these feelings flow Upwelling surge to purge the scourge A call to urge we’re on the verge To break through…emerge As forces swirl and converge Holding ground we won’t back down The time has come so pass it round! Peace, Love, Light, Magic Peace, Love, Light, Magic Peace, Love, Light, Magic Peace, Love, Light, Magic So tell me, do you believe in magic? A force beyond fantastic? The earth, sun, moon, stars A pulsing force like quasars Your energy, your power Negativity devourer It’s from within this strength we’ve got Drawn from this cosmic melting pot Flowing vibes for all to catch Chances for new plans to hatch Looking forwards, never back Onwards, upwards, changing tack Joining all with hearts so warm Switching from this current norm Our mind, body, heart and soul Uniting all, becoming whole Peace, Love, Light, Magic Peace, Love, Light, Magic Peace, Love, Light, Magic Peace, Love, Light, Magic With a foundation cultivated Along wavelengths pulsated Through ley lines it propagates We raise up love instead of hate With Frequencies of peace and light Incantations feeling right Intuitive trust that resonates Into it we thrust and elevate The whole is greater than the parts Come so far in fits and starts Each day new to fix the past Forge onwards, make it last Laying dormant for so long Earth wants us to join her song To see as one we all belong Fractured pieces form a bond Discover different ways of being Consider different ways of seeing Contribute our many gifts Thrust down roots to uplift Breaking walls, divisions fall We’re open now to one and all Divide and conquer’s the old way Vested interests hold less sway We see everything’s connected Golden rule becomes projected In ways never seen before Abundance thrives to the fore Comprehension, overstanding Compassion & equal standing As citizens of the world we see Theres unity in diversity!
