Rise or Fall 03:47
lyrics
buy track
Will we rise or will we fall? can we see above it all? Who knows? I don't. But I feel something in the breeze, it's gaining pace under our feet. So fast, it won't slow. We're cutting a fine line, but I think we can climb high yeah, higher than they can. Things will be better. 'Cause they're at us from both sides, so leap forward & take flight yeah. higher than they can. Just keep it together. We can't just talk of being free, gotta bring real change for you & me. We're one, so be strong & switch off the news, open your eyes, to a deeper love, re-energize. Unlearn, to know. Chorus Rise Chorus Will we rise?

Stay 03:18
lyrics
buy track
Can we glide into this new age with a clean slate? Can this tide alter it's pattern forever? If we'd let go, of what we know, maybe 'cause Hey, if we're true to what's right, nothing will go wrong 'cause where ever there's light, it'll put us on our way, on our way back, together as one. & there we'll stay, yeah we'll stay for good. Can our hearts, fill with love we were given, to begin with? Is it too much to ask, with our minds so imprisoned? no We are gold, so let it show, & remember that ... Chorus Stopping the flow, of gradually being pulled under, is possible if, a higher goal, is something that we're in search of. Chorus (x2)

Fully Woken Up 03:08
lyrics
buy track
I'm gonna pull your stage down, then I'll dissolve without a trace. I'm gonna tear your mask now, so the whole world will see the face behind it. & I know you won't like, I know you won't like it. & I won't be giving up, Yeah I know you won't like, I know you won't like it, when I've fully woken up. You'll never get to chip me, you'll have no way to track me down. If you try to trip me, all your plans will hit the ground in pieces. Chorus Oh if only you'd see, all the good things. Oh if only you'd see, the wonder that I can. They'd be no way you'd track me down Chorus

A Million Miles 03:38
lyrics

Something got me thinking yeah yeah. It feels so good & it came out of no where. Now I often seem to find, I'm in two places at one time Since something got me thinking yeah. I'm closing my eyes now, my hands are out in front of me. I'm asking myself how, I can change this energy. With a little love & a bit of heart, I just may. I feel this vibration, I know that I'm part of it. Can I shift this sensation, a million miles away from fear. Well with a little love & a bit of heart, I just may. 'Cause something got me thinking yeah yeah. It feels so good & it came out of no where. Now I often seem to find, I'm in two places at one time. Since something got me thinking yeah. I'm closing my eyes now, my hands are out in front of me. Asking myself how, I can, really change. With a little love & a bit of heart, I just may. With a little love & a bit more heart.

High On This Moment 03:01
lyrics
buy track
I'm running fast, but walking slow, I'm back at places from before. No track of time, is this a dream, 'cause so much is connecting. I can see, what is in front of me. I can read every sign. I'm high on this moment, digging in deep. Taking my chances, oh yeah, moving out of this body, Into a new one & it feels so complete. Singing & dancing, oh yeah, now I'm really living, High on this moment. I'm everywhere & nowhere too, I'm standing, sleeping, crawling through. This ray of light, it's ever clear, please no one get me out here. I can't speak, when I try, words fail me. When I think, it's from my right. Chorus I'm no longer in a corner, since I've crossed over this border. Yeah Yeah forever.... High on this moment, digging deep. Chorus

Breathe 03:01
lyrics

I'm buzzing off, buzzing off the pages, It can't be overstated. I'm diving in, diving into presence, aware of all my senses. Oh, here I go and ...... All I do is breathe air. I let it in, let it out, let it in. Everything is right here. in the now, let it out, let it in. I'm surfing on, surfing on the stillness. It comes in waves of greatness. Yeah what I've found, what I've found is nameless. It's so alive & ageless. Oh, here I go and ....... Chorus Oh just breathe in, just breathe in. Oh just breathe in, just breathe in. All I do is breathe air. I let it in, let it out, let it in. Everything is right here. in the now, let it out.

Cry Like A Baby 03:33
lyrics
buy track
We’re at the precipice, can we rise to it. Lift our consciousness, or feed on ignorance? Oh, this circle's bigger than, it was when we began, There's no doubting it. So isn't it crazy, we're strange, to the idea we're all the same? Oh How will it end if this goes on & on & on? It makes me cry like a baby. Why identify, with the them & us? It's an alibi, I just cannot trust. 'cause, this circle's bigger than, it was when we began, There's no doubting it. Chorus When everything's so out of line, We need to move things forward & make right. 'Cause, this circle's bigger than, it was when we began, There's no doubting it. Chorus (x2)

The Worm Has Turned 03:01
lyrics
buy track
Opening up this can, worms spill out of it. Sliding off through the dirt, knowing who'll get hurt. They break apart this game. It won't be played again. Making the shit go down, turning the world round, Yeah, oh the good times are here yeah. 'cause 6 billion odd, have nothing to be scared of. So as things progress, the garden seems so fresh. Eden departs its hell, ripping up ash-felt. Everyone gets fed, it's back to nature here. The worms go about their work, turning this great Earth. Chorus Solo Chorus
