about

My sombre reflections on the state of the world...backed my sombre beats...with a hope for peace in the future...

lyrics

I wanna show you something...
Deep in my mind there is only one thing!
Cos of the sunshine you bring...
I can cast out my fears and focus on living
Not now but far from here...
In a time where people aren't controlled by fear
Where the future's bright and we all can hear!
The force from a mountaintop...floating clear...

Teaching us...how to live in peace
To understand one another, not evil deeds
To pick out the good once we sort through the weeds
And cut out the bad roots from the fallen trees
So they never, ever, rise again
And we can call all the people of the world our friend
No-one blinded by hatred, money or greed
And we supplant the self with the greater need

So can you feel it too or is it only me
Don't close your eyes but open them to believe
This paradigm shift is starting pretty soon
So just board the ship until there is no room
That is...not room for blinding hate
Destroying us so that we can't relate
Because we are all one...we share the same fate
Just board it now before it is too late!

And then I'll take you - to a different place
Where there's no hidden feelings on a truthful face
With an openness not seen since the change of pace
When our lives were manipulated by the rat-race
But - that's - all- forgotten - now
Inertia-filled days, emotions crushed, with money-ploughs
No hidden agenda, not void of heart
Where the hidden hand drowned in the seas that part

And we were no longer doomed to fail from the start
With a fresh beginning we rediscovered the art
Of looking out for one another, not a corporate machine
In the old days they waved it off as a dream
When we ripped the fabric we destroyed the seems
And removed the one causing tortured screams
That particular one, full of empty false promise
And it only worked when we took advantage of solace

So can you feel it too or is it only me?
Don't close your eyes but open them to believe
This paradigm shift is starting pretty soon
So just board the ship until there is no room
That is...not room for blinding hate
Destroying us so that we can't relate
Because we are all one...we share the same fate
Just board it now before it is too late!

So I'll unveil the ending...
Mixed ideals in a rich soup blending
Tolerance, compassion growing seeds...
...Of love in one another, helping those in need
Bolstering opinions warning those who heed...
We'll never pull through if we leave mouths to feed
To the human race, I've gotta give you more faith
Don't let it waiver now...when I have to wait

For a change to come...from fuck knows where?
Ascending from the wreckage and depths of despair
Once the machine breaks down...the systems gone!
We'll respect all on this planet we're on
But what does it take? What does it take?
To undo all of these mistakes we make?
I'll tell you what - we realise we're all one
And only then can we live in peace under the sun!

So can you feel it too or is it only me?
Don't close your eyes but open them to believe
This paradigm shift is starting pretty soon
So just board the ship until there is no room
That is...not room for blinding hate
Destroying us so that we can't relate
Because we are all one...we share the same fate
Just board it now before it is too late!
