Listen to the words of your hearts desire

Listen to the words of your hearts desire
Heed to the voice and open up your mind
Flow to the movement dance and realign
Listen to the words

Weaving Flows

Go to the River
Falling from the sky as many
All apart but soon we’ll be back again
Individually combining into all
Now with our collective goal
Our purpose found journeys unfold
Flowing sounds out in a call
Go to the River
Anywhere you wanna go even if there’s no road
Flowing with the tides we’re many minds
Alike reflective butterflies
Moon and gravity guiding us all
Now with our collective goal
Our purpose found journeys unfold
Flowing sounds out in a call
Go to the River
Weaving round it flows
Anywhere you wanna go even if there’s no road
Go to the River

Let’s take a chance
Let’s realise
I wanna see something open up my eyes
Drop everything now
I wanna go on an adventure
Shimmering light
Of the ocean guides
The open fires and the music finds
Dive right in now
Gimme something to remember
Intuition will guide my mission
Anywhere I here a call or sign
I will listen
Momentum built on spontinuity
Like the universe rewarding me
Changing location
It’s the good vibes I’m chasing
With an aimless wandering
Move about now
Unguided random direction
Thoughtless choices
At the intersection
Realise all those chance encounters
Flow in a way like nothing matters
Pointless to apprehend the consequence
If your hearts saying yes
Then it must make sense
Spreading the seeds of joy
And they will scatter
Put a don’t do on-a my to do list
All the problems of my world
I’m gonna relinquish
Back burner they will stay
All freed up now I’m on my way
Changing location
It’s the good vibes I’m chasing
With an aimless wandering
Move about now
There’s no motion
When you’re not approaching
The situation of plans un-a-folding
Shift your surroundings
Expands your mind
Seek ideas
Movement inspires
Changing location
It’s the good vibes I’m chasing
With an aimless wandering
Move about now

They say the trees are always listening
Taken by those open feelings
Shaped and made by musics beating
We joined and danced and what an end
Back to the roots
of the song that starts with you
of the song that you choose
and now I can sing
Lost in a hundred spires
too late to realise
My skins dry my mind lies
time has got to change
When you find your place in song
You can just sing along
And everywhere you play
Will excite and vibrate
Feelings that are coming through me
May always they remain
Waiting for the moment
That I hear you again
I’ll beat my drum for you
I sing my song for you
I clap my hands to the beat
That transforms into
Believe in the new
All my friends who helped me through
All my love and gratitude I will
Always give
Wood and bone is what they stole
Taken from what once was whole
Nights sky window side
A part of you will stay
When you find your place in song
You can just sing along
And everywhere you play
Will excite and vibrate
Feelings that are coming through me
May always they remain
Waiting for the moment
That I hear you again
I’ll beat my drum for you
I sing my song for you
I clap my hands to the beat
That transforms into
Music that we made
Memories to celebrate
All of it is realised
And all will be remembered
Nova sparks and breathes new life
With all of her creations

These feet they carry me
I know not for how long
But I know just how far
These eyes they can not see
No just not currently
But my mind my memories
They’ll show me
I can hear my home
These feet they carry me
I know not for how long
But I know just how far
These eyes they can not see
No just not currently
But my mind my memories
They’ll show me
I can hear my home
In the land of my spirit
In the land of my blood
I can hear it now
I can hear my home

As they walk beside my side
Nod ma head and say

A smile will go from ear to ear
As I greet you with full cheer
My heart is always saying

Just to take a little look
Bringing a little joy from a hey now hey now

Smile at the people and say
Smile at the people and say

As it Should Be

Be not afraid
To make a mistake
In that journey
The magic is
And all will lead you
As it’s meant to
And all is with you
As it should be
Now I can see the way
When I feel I’m lost
Patience breathe and wait
To open up and reach my goals
I will sit up straight and stand up tall
Now I can see the way
To open up and reach my goals
I will sit up straight and stand up tall
Now I can see the way
You are safe where you are
You are a safe in these arms
And all will lead you
As it’s meant to
And all is with you
As it should be

Thousand Faces
03:29

Treat it right and keep it strong
I’m a transistor of love
Someone’s got to break the chain of hate and forgive
Gotta shift your brain away from insane
Ignorance is bliss against a face of distress
I’m not gunna let this whole ship burn to the ground
It can change all ways every day
With emotional feelings on parade
Keep it in my mind so strong
That not each day will be as easy as the last one
I’ll keep doing what I’m doing
Coz I love to feel this way
When I keep myself in this state
I open up a million opportunities
I got a thousand faces I keep each one especially for you
But when the weather hits me I sometimes can’t pull through
And then a fool came along
Try to make it all go wrong
I will not change my faces
For you
You can’t stop what I create
I’ll never give my focus to hate
All of this of which I cannot see will only just empower me
Don’t naysay what you do not know
There’s countless reasons not to do anything
None of them by my side
Is gunna bring the positive side to life
I got a thousand faces I keep each one especially for you
But when the weather hits me I sometimes can’t pull through
And then a fool came along and try to make it all go wrong
But I will not change my faces
For you
All of our biggest problems, are all made in our heads
Keep it out keep on concentrating, it doesn’t really exist
Ignore all the things that make you sad
Ignore all the things that you can’t have
Just keep one thought in your head
Any amount of light can brighten up darkness
I got a thousand faces I keep each one especially for you
But when the weather hits me I sometimes can’t pull through
And then a fool came along and try to make it all go wrong
But I will not change my faces
For you

Gentle Elemental

Warmth of fire
Grounded earth
Pure water
The air that I breathe
The love to feel in harmony
For the land mother and father sky
For the land mother and father sky
The elemental in its presence
Brings us gently back to balance
Embers dancing wisdom as they glow
Seeds are fruiting knowledge as they grow
Oceans shelters life of the unknown
Spirits whisper magic to behold
For the land mother and father sky
For the land mother and father sky
The elemental in its presence
Brings us gently back to balance
And as they all join as one
The perfect equilibrium
The spirit spreads across the earth
A new time has been given birth
The elemental in its presence
Brings us gently back to balance
