The Call 07:17
A faceless apathy passed down through the ages, Instruction to consume and desecrate without hesitation, Prolonged exposure to the ruthless knife of our great nation, You’ve lost your heart of truth to the void, Deep Inside, a world alive... Rivers flow with a love untainted It can be reclaimed again, To eradicate this disconnected indulgence This clarity has been accepted, But it was present in me all along, And I am not afraid to fall, beauty free from imbecilic judgement. I absorb my intention I explore my dimensions From south to north, I will venture To the call, I surrender You must clear your mind Set aside all the false pretences Unearth what was left behind Feel the weight of the wheels in motion The realities that are neglected, can never be undone But you have more power than you know Oh just let it go This is your call... I absorb my intention (I allow myself to follow your voice) I explore my dimensions (this is not what you think it is) From south to north, I will venture (you are not who you think you are) To the call, we must surrender I retreat inside my temple, to clear clutter of the mind The toxic over population clouds my sight I can now be free to see with eyes unveiled and untied I embrace the truth slowly extracted from inside Lost inside your self projection, A servant to these lies, How far down will you bury your head? Aren’t you a part of this world? I embrace the pain and sorrow By denial I am unbound I answer your call and let it show the way.

I Rise 06:40
And as the old decays... The new has come to light This seed growing deep inside Now... this force will set the stage I open up in flight It cannot be denied glide... allow this over me I now take to the skies These weights lifted from my mind Dive, (I dive) I wash away the rage (wash away the rage) I’ve open up my eyes, Through death is the chance to embody a new life Caught inside this cycle Self induced sickness and disease I see now the process which caused me such torment The path down this dark road was started with a single step Deep inside my awareness expanded now to recognise that every affliction, a symptom of the mind The webs we weave have been formed with lies Have been formed with lies Every affliction, a symptom of the mind No, I come alive I leave the womb Enter the courage to transform Let me ride with you I feel the change of a brand new coming I will see this through I'll take the chance to feel this moment I feel the change, inside I feel the change, I Rise x3 Let me ride with you I Feel the change of a brand new coming I will see this through I'll take the chance to feel this moment Let me rise with you I grasp this light that grows inside me Ready now to grow I rise, a flame that forever burns

Come to me, i see you’re weary with sorrow, Close your eyes, forget the days of tomorrow, There is no pain beyond the light that you follow, Shed this weight and fall into a sleep, So deep, So deep, Release the pain, Endured for far too long. I leave this lie, as i stray out of thought and time, Wide opened, dismantled, i join the river of life, And i embraced it, carried away by the tide, back to origin, a distant yet familiar sight, No longer do i have the abilty to walk with eyes closed, This love is killing me, This love is killing me. I faced it, embraced it, the source has now come to take me under the wing of light, And through it i emerged, out from the ashes regenerated, Bearing the pain of this world, un filtered recognition unbiased clear perception carried me through this black fog, Consumed in such a rage, this is the canvas of the wicked, Fashioning realities that we must not come to terms with.

The Void 12:17
Proving your hunger to give it your all, while only providing destruction Self indulgent, indifferent and blissful.  Constructed a hell we have built on our own, you don’t recognise the importance,  Only misery to be found.  All of this evil infecting the heart. Swallow your misguided remedy for the cause.  Hollow is the world you’re creating when you shut the door,  Feed your hungry heart... and forever dwell in the void. Carry your reasons with you till you fall, all justified with a purpose Tell me how great is your lust for success? (The franchise of pain until thy kingdom come)  We are the stain that discolours your gold, no room inside of your fortress? (Unbound by compassion) All are divided but all die as one. Sorrow seeping from every pore in the void,  Burrow, deep in the pain of those that you ignore,  Free your lonely heart, The journey inside. Run... Take all your possessions and linger on. Search... Down every apathetic avenue with extortion and greed. Feast... On the flesh of the innocent with the power to speak  Growth... (The only objective) So callously build upon this bountiful dream... How many tears will it take to quench your insatiable lust? The power of apathy has brought you to gold... but from there, where will you go? (The soul is dead)  The soul inside is dead, you’re walking a path that I cannot prevent  (Tears are shed)  While all these tears are shed, the hope that remained is utterly spent  (Filled with dread)  My mind is filled with dread, succumb to the pain of what lies ahead  (Dark corruption spreads) This dark corruption spreads, can’t we be mindful of where we tread  (All misled) Deprived, all are misled, look deep inside, you cannot pretend (you are dying all alone) (Reinvent) Your heart can reinvent, open your eyes, it’s time to repent  Repent... Journey deep inside your heart...

Fiction 07:33
When in the dark, remember... that you will come to the light again, you will not find a saviour, look to none, salvation only lies in you. You cannot run, these fabricated fantasies will burn everymore, so stand up and see... (wake from this dream) open your eyes, It comes. Only fiction Falling forever Carry this burden with you. A truth so profound, so simple, yet so incomprehensible, So simple x 4 we must now dance in tune with the raging winds, However, they may blow, whatever, you think you know, Race far ahead, or dwell far behind, You're blind to what lies infront of you, It's time to recognise the reality, loosen your hold on the fictional, release your control. Only fiction, Falling forever, Carry this burden with you. No love... For yourself there is no love. I embrace this transformation... I submit to be reborn.

A weakness seeps to the surface, Collapse once more beneath my stones forsaking all I strive to retain In bitterness and in fear, i dissolve, from the light...i stumble. I want to swim in higher places... Looking down from above... And in an act of desperation... I am forced into confronting myself... All of this pain for examination. Hidden in the shadow... This darkness I must follow... (Every touch) (Has left behind) Its mark. Detached and starved of light, my soul has become untouchable Inside a cage of my own making, and one that i cannot resist The child inside that was ostracized is now a slave to this cold will To the blood we crave, we will become the prey To become the beast that we fear the most seems to be the only way of self defence The trauma that moves unseen A victim to this fear The wounds inside the soul have taken a hold The poison hidden in the shadow... Has stripped away all the love... How long am I to bleed and suffer before my wounds are to heal? The duality of the heart, come forth, The acceptance of a cold, dark nature. In moments of fear and confusion that this world brings upon me, Do I allow the hate that’s unfolding to dictate my direction? Is all the dark at my disposal a necessary evil? Must I embrace the pollution inside me in order to survive? I can’t believe what I am becoming, caught inside this vortex These Empty hearts are all that surround me, cannot resist your dark penetration. The pain inside, this rage overflowing, is beyond my control now Becoming one with the shadow

Sheltered under clouded skies, Empty mind and satisfied, Lost without a care, Open your eyes and see the sky tonight, see the world that we’ve destroyed, Set aside the parasite, This blood that we consume... Servant to your own demise, Expending what we do not own, Precious life enslaved to die (a product to be sold?) Lead by, desire, production and power, Oppression, pretention, in evasion you cower To find the truth, you must let your power go. It is the time to grow... engulfed inside archaic misdirection A servant to a paradigm so black so cold Can’t extend beyond your own reflection So Tell me for what price will your heart be sold? Be sold.... For far too long we’ve worn this mask of self deception You have surrendered love for blood and gold? Cant you see beyond your own reflection? now let the truth inside your heart unfold for blood and gold...

about

This album was written over the course of 3 years during a very turbulent, but transformation period in my life. It reflects the exploration of myself as a spiritual being and how that transformation affected by perception on the world, and on myself.
