One Mind,
One Life at a time
One Consciousness


We are of one mind,
yes,
so just strive for the enlightened mind
Your consciousness is a stream that's flowing out of you,
dreaming senses to interpret and experience our manifesting of an outside reality


We are of mind
and our flesh
and our core
is of the same kind,
so strive
your consciousness is a river flowing out of you
Control and harness into a stream
to recreate activity, motion, vibration, and sound


Revealed to me:
Manifesting Our Outside Reality

fortunate!

Be aware of the Mind
in It's Pure Form



One Mind, so just strive for the enlightened mind
if you don't try, what else would you do with your life
in our life, in this Life

One Mind
strive for the enlightened mind
Your consciousness is a river flowing out of you


And it was revealed to me;
Balance is the fabric of existence

Jah Love, children, yeah!

Don't forget
that We Are truly of the same kind
The same One Mind
Universal Cosmic Being
How have we all forgotten through these times?

-------
Track Name: Unable To Move Backwards In Time (Stuck In A Black Hole)
Falling inwards, falling backwards

this is not how I thought it would be

This is not how I pictured it to be



Falling inwards, falling backwards

I was never promised a rose garden

This is not how I pictured it to be


I just can't sleep at night

I've got the blues so bad, oh, I just can't sleep at night!
I just can't sleep a wink at night, not one
not one wink at night

What am I supposed to do now?

Rest my Mind's Eye....
Track Name: Loss (Reflection)
One day
I will leave
this human world

One word
and I'll be
by your side
as a friend in need

Another year has come and gone


One day I will leave this human world


I still can't believe what a year this has been,
So I retreat to a place deep within
and I realize,
that

I can't express
all the regret
I've had this year
my time wasted

Year twenty of
my existence
as a human
spent alone in my head

I feel this way
I feel so bad,
I can't express
as good as dead

This past year
such a waste of my life
a waste of my time
I will take control again

I feel so bad
I can't express
I don't expect
you to understand

I feel so bad...


But I know that Life is so beautiful
deep inside and all around

I know I just got to feel this way
so lonely sometime

I don't want to have to say good-bye
but in time, yes, I will

All things change and decay;
such is Life

Such a brilliantly bittersweet masterpiece is Death;

Death;
The End;
Transcendence

Because one day we will leave this human world
Track Name: Salt For Comfort (When I Miss The Ocean)
-------

Ah, in these moments
I can taste
the salt on my face,

and now in this moment,
right here,
right now,
I can hear water
pushing from my fingertips

Sounds like the ocean
sounds like the sea
Ocean, yeah
Swimming in the sea

by the sea...


Waiting for waves,
Waiting for waves,
Pining for waves,
Waiting for waves

Pining for joy
that once filled my heart,
my heart longs for saltwater in my veins

How I pine for the ocean...!
For the sea..
I long for the ocean, yeah
between these city streets
oh, how I love our ocean! oh, caressing me!
ocean, oh
wide open scene ..!

By the Sea

Waiting for waves, pining for waves,
All this Life came from under the waves
Waves..

.....Eu sinto saudade do oceano....

-------
Track Name: Transcendence Jam (For Last January)
Let me tell you a thing or two

Suddenly,
you've got open arms
after four years

I'm a different man now,
we are both different people,
so it seems


Openly to you, babe,
Blessed all the things my fortunate eyes have seen:
Balance and perfect Harmony
Harmony

I can see Jah Ocean in your Eye


Transcendence will be great,
infinitely amazing
Transcendence will be amazing

Yes, it's true
Did you hear the news?

All these years ago...

Can't you see?
Don't you agree?
We are perfect as individuals,
but together we can be complete
Track Name: Poolwater Blues
-------


That's just too bad........such a drag.....

My Mind wanders......away.....



I really don't expect you to understand

I never thought that I could be so in denial of everything and Who I Am, in my life
in my life,
I just let it go


Love, Death, Time, Space pass

Love, Death, Time, Space expand


-------
Track Name: Smells Like Chlorine
-------

Do you ever wonder
why we spent so much time apart
out of sight from each other
oh,
I've got to let this go
before my time

Do you ever wonder?
Do you ever wonder?
Why we spent so much time apart?

I'll move on like that
Forgive me for not coming back

I'll be good on my way
Just tell them all I'm fine

-------
Track Name: Biters (Shark Attack!!)
-------

Well, would you take a look at that..

I swear I've heard those chords before......
......maybe next to the knives in my back

Defend yourself,
protect yourslelf,
hide behind corners of truth
while blood still drips from your fingers
Malice intention behind your mind, still lingers

But you revel in your cowardice,
and steal my identity
to comfort yourself like a blanket,
and leave yourself blind to it with pride


I'm so sick of breathing the same air that you breathe,
soaking up all of your negativity

Discrepancies from the person that you claim to be
while my jaw drops from this utter disbelief

Thinking you are clever justifying fooling me
with the person you pretend yourself to be

Bitterness accumulated from all your insecurities
while I shake my head in utter disbelief

to come find
that you're just a coward

You're just a coward, yes, you are
All when you don't have to be

So sick of hearing who you pretend yourself to be,
when all I want is for you to be yourself and not me

not me....
You are perfectly beautiful on your own

Oh, so life goes


Falling into myself again.....


Man, I know you need love,
I mean, we all do,
but you just can't keep taking without giving

How do you sleep like a baby at night?
No shame
No shame
No shame...

-------
Track Name: Pale Blue (Take Flight)
Across the vast and open sky
Expanding through to the vastness of the Universe
Spiraling out, into birth; weaving Creation
And out into a Love that wil come to bloom

Born of good intention, Love will take new form
Finding ways to celebrate this Creation, and the roots of where we're from
A mixture of blue and white, with your colors and a hint of green,
is an image that's so nice to keep me in my company

..Watching the birds above flap their wings against this blend of sky...


Oh, my love, don't feel lonely
You should never in your life feel that lonely
Don't feel terribly lonely
oh, it's such a pity in your life to feel lonely
So terribly lonely
like that

It's so inconvenient to be alone
So difficult to be alone
and I should know
because I go through this without you
Track Name: Unable To Move Faster Than The Speed Of Light (Still Stuck In The Black Hole)
Falling inwards
Falling backwards
Falling outward
Falling forward
All at the same time

Years have gone by
Years gone by
waiting for my time
Waiting for y time
to stay

Oh, I swear,
it's so different
here than there
and I miss my Life
and I miss my Light

and I know
One day I will leave this place
One day I will leave this state
and be by the waves
of Energy

One day I will leave this human world

One day we will leave this human world


And I belong at sea

I belong at sea

Out on the waves

Wind in my face

Singing songs of isolation for a Light to shine the way

Singing songs of desperation for a Light to show the way
