Malama Ka 'Aina
06:25
|
|||
City lights missing from the Island life,
My mind's still a thousand miles away
Catching up with every wave
Moonlight shines off the shore break
Seabreeze, lifts off my heartache
Reminds me that my soul is free
Moku ola e Ho’i Mai
Malama ka ’aina
Malama ka ohana
To grow sometimes you must go away,
But come back, back to your family
With gifts for society
Our roots grow deeper than you may know,
In hard times, inspiration will show
Show you the way
Moku ola e Ho’i Mai
Malama ka ’aina
Malama ka ohana
West coast always in the sunshine,
East coast where all the food grows
This is a paradise
Moku ola e Ho’i Mai
Malama ka ’aina
Malama ka ohana
translation:
Come back to the healing Island
Respect the land
Respect the community

Courage
04:44
|

Your love is an early spring
Though we’re living through uncertain times
All I know is the peace that you bring
When you’re near I forget
That the world’s full of suffering and pain, oh my..
Because your smile that you give
Is sunshine through rain
Oh, my lovely lady
You bring a brighter day
Ooh, I want a world for you and I
Oh woh, my love
Where we are kings and queens of our lives
Will time await for us
Through the glacier melts
And the rising of the tides
But we can outweigh our troubles
When we stand together
My darling I need you to keep..
Keep your spirits high
Oh my lovely lady
You bring a brighter day
Ooh, I want a world for you and I
Oh woh, my love
Where we are kings and queens of our lives
(It can be) Have courage!
(If we can see it) Have courage my love!

Red Moon
04:48
|

Life and Death
Engaged in a game that we can watch
And the learn the steps
With each in and out breath
The pattern repeats upon itself
A circle without end
Red Moon, in the tarnished skies
Red Moon, you turned to me and sighed
We may be gone too soon
But life finds a way to make it round again
Long, long ways
To come around
To come around to find out...
Make no mistake my love
We were meant to collide and create
Rare beauty in our wake
To bring forth a supernova
Like springtime blossoming into space
From our love's embrace
Red Moon, in the tarnished skies
Red moon, you turned to me and sighed
Red Moon, my love
Though we have gone astray, it's what we're here for
And I know that life will find a way
To make it 'round again
Long ways to come around
To come around, to find out
Love is what you make, what you make it
No need to wrestle with your heart
All that I have, when I'm need
Is my mind to be free, to trust and believe
That the stars will lead, me back to the start
Where love came from on high
Made one you and I
From us two filled the rest of the skies
Red Moon, in the tarnished skies
Red moon, you turned to me and sighed
Red Moon, my love
Though we’ve gone astray, it’s what we’re here for
I have memories of light before dawn
And I know that life will find a way
I know that life will find a way
I know that life will find a way
To make it ‘round again

False Flags
04:15
|
|||
You mention war they see the profit signs
When you mention war, we’re all asking what for
It’s not for freedom and it’s not for peace
It’s for global domination of corporate greed
One day all false flags will fall
Releasing all souls captured
There’s always been a battle
For our hearts and for our minds
I believe in human kindness
They say it’s for our security
Bit by bit take away our liberties
Turn their guns on their own populous
This is betrayal of the People’s trust
Alarm bells ring when you read the history books
Because terror is a tool of them godforsaken crooks
Masquerading as the leaders of the world
And they fill their pockets while they rape the Earth
Yes, they fill their pockets while they rape the Earth
One day all false flags will fall
Releasing all souls captured
There’s always been a battle
For our hearts and for our minds
I believe in human kindness
In the time that life evolved upon the earth
How far have we travelled since the moment of our birth?
Our capacity for joy is matched by the grief
The leaders seem to change and yet the history repeats
Things will not change until we break the chains
Pick up the pieces of what remains of the day
The veneer is thin, you know, the stories that they spin
But a breaking point is always reached in the end
One day all false flags will fall
Releasing all souls captured
There’s always been a battle
For our hearts and for our minds
I believe in human kindness

Missing You
05:19
|
|||
Knowing you woman is like deciphering
Morse code from outer space
And as soon as I get a grip
I lose my orbit and I take a trip
You’re spinning around like a comet on fire
When you’re coming around
And I feel like a creature outta time
when you burn it all down
Fearsome lady!
I’m facing a galactic mess that is you
And I got no choice woman
Not to follow through
What else to do?
‘Cause you’ve been begging and pleading
And bargaining and bleeding for true
And I’ve missing you like my heart misses blood
I’ve been missing you and know why God sent the flood
I’ve been missing you like the birds miss the breeze
I’ve been missing you and I’m down on my knees
Begging and pleading for peace
I was lamenting you to a friend
Pointing out your constellation
She said, “You need professional help,
Who better than a woman is a queer to tell?”
So I wrote in to Dan Savage
Just to get that brother’s low-down
He wrote, “Mr. Libido it’s too late
To turn that spaceship around”
“Your sweet lady,
is just the kind of super freak suited to you
And you’ve got no choice man
Not to follow through, what else to do?
‘Cause, I’ve been begging and pleading
And bargaining and bleeding for true”
And I’ve missing you like my heart misses blood
I’ve been missing you and know why God sent the flood
I’ve been missing you like the birds miss the breeze
I’ve been missing you and I’m down on my knees
Begging and pleading for peace

A thousand miles of madness
across these lakes and streams
Following the greed of the Ringmaster’s dream
There’s a constant ache, persistent pain
We long for our homes
And the Garden green
It’s a Carnival Ride
Spinning us round and round
Spinning us round and round
Until the world’s burning down
It’s spinning us round and round
Spinning us round and round
Spin doctors be telling lies
polluting skies until black tides
And suicides will ruin lives
We’re calling all the tribes
We’re standing side-by-side
Not for our pride
We’re getting off of this crazy ride
A billion dollars spent
On the greenwash machine
And you can bet your life
The beach won’t wind up so clean
Stay vigilant, brothers
Sisters, keep an eye
They may be blinding us with promises
We won’t stand for these lies
It’s a Carnival Ride
Spinning us round and round
Spinning us round and round
Until the world’s burning down
It’s spinning us round and round
Spinning us round and round
We be sinning and spinning
And keep them demons grinning
This carnival that we've been in
Pollutes the rivers we swim in
It's time to see it's a prison
And let the light through the prism
It's time to share a new vision
We do it for the children
We do it for the earth
We finally giving birth to new and true ways
With fists raised, we give thanks and praise
So follow this parade to the dawn of better days!
The opposition grows
…while the time’s running out
The silent cries
…will rise up to a shout
The man will be defeated
…of this I have no doubt
The mission of the righteous
…carries throughout
Love is the way
…to end their evil from our lives
Our strength will be revealed
…like the parting of the skies
We are all in this together
…you and I and I
People of the world
…stand up unite!

Que Nos Espera
04:05
|
|||
Neutron star, the target
Your fortress heart
No chance for survival
It will blow us apart
Our bodies are a loan from the stars
And we were there from the start
When time dissolves into space
Will we remember our faces, all places
Oh mi amor
¿Qué hay más allá?
Que nos espera?
Cuando el jardín se rompe
Se rompera nuestro amor en pedazos?
The well of my heart goes much deeper
Than our perception of time
Still I wish for more than just one life
To call you mine
When Saturn’s rings are pulled into the star
We will know that we are next after Mars
A nebulous light in the sky
Let’s hold hands while we die
Oh mi amor
¿Qué hay más allá?
Que nos espera?
Cuando el jardín se rompe
Se rompera nuestro amor en pedazos?
translation:
Oh my love
What's beyond?
What awaits us?
When the garden breaks
Will our love be torn asunder?

Love is Eternal
04:24
|
|||
I put my love inside a locket
To lay against your skin,
For to tell you how I feel
I’d not know where to begin
In a moment like this
just give me one kiss
Before I have to go
I’ll be weeks on the road,
you know I’ll come home
Don’t worry darling,
As you said we’ll be just fine
I respond to the sadness
That you’ve been wearing all this time
Love is Eternal, but there’s a black hole in our minds
‘Cause nobody knows how this story will go
How life will unfold
Everything we have shared
You know I take it with me everywhere
And I’ve learned love is no conquest
It’s to surrender if you dare
There are worlds to explore
I don’t want to close any doors
To places you may go
For we learn who we are
When we are so far from home
Don’t worry darling
As you said we’ll be just fine
I respond to the sadness
That you’ve been wearing all this time
Love is Eternal, but there’s a black hole in our minds
‘Cause nobody knows how this story will go
How life will unfold
Love is Eternal!
Nobody knows how this story will go
All this time apart
I hope it strengthens the valves of our hearts
For the future is uncertain
And there are many ways to read the stars

Rubber Bands
02:58
|
|||
Held together with rubber bands
Bones stacked like empty cans
Marrow’s not flowing beyond the dam
Docs don’t know why but you know ma’am
You know who I am
Hands tied with other hands
Mind stalled with too many plans
Disaster loves a stubborn man
To fall down the staircase bam bam
You know who I am
Oh oh, oh oh, ooh ooh…
Lady instead I’ll let you do what you please
Cellophane tongue wrapped around my knees
A horde of critics lined up out the door
I don’t know why you asked them round here for
Only you know who I am
Oh oh, oh oh, ooh ooh…
Held together with rubber bands
Bones stacked like empty cans
You know who I am

World Waking Up
04:59
|
|||
How long have I been asleep
I feel you watching as I blink back to reality
So give me some love,
I know of the ways that I’ve gone astray
Oh, I’ve been living as it comes
Come what may
If the world could wake up
The world will wake up
The world’s waking up from it’s collective dream
Love is the simplest thing!
Love is the simplest thing!
Oh my eyesight hard when it’s breaking up for me
To watch as the world runs straight towards emergency
Love, come summon up our courage please
Or we won’t be living in a fertile Eden’s ease
Tell me how to work for the peace we need
I put my heart on the line, strive for the light
To see you as me
If the world could wake up
The world will wake up
The world’s waking up from it’s collective dream
Love is the simplest thing!
Love is the simplest thing!
I won’t ever say that rage is not a state of mine
For there’s a war of attrition, and enslavement of our minds
Oh, when the love comes in, it’s still hard enough for me
Oh, to live for life for a world of peace
But life will return with the rising of the sun
If the world could wake up
The world will wake up
The world’s waking up from it’s collective dream
Love is the simplest thing!
Love is the simplest thing!

Every minute ticking of the clocks
Closer to the judgement day
The guns will melt in the rising of the sun
You can hear the women pray
All divisions must cease with the dawning
Of this brand new age
Our gods, ancestors, no longer separate us
Because we are one and the same
If the warring is ever going to stop
It’ll come from us leading the way
From the elders, earth education
Rise Up Jah People today!
Back in touch with the lands that sustain us
Dispense of technologies that will maim
All answers exist within and between us
Live with love and praise
Back to our roots no more GMO crops
The industrial military complex must stop
Slow down your mind and let the wisdom drop
No more boundaries, One Love under Jah
If the warring is ever going to stop
It’ll come from us leading the way
From the elders, earth education
Rise Up Jah People today!
I think about it, I spit and shout it, I kick it loud
I do my best to not have my head up inside the clouds
I bring it back to earth and try to think of what its worth
Connected to this land ‘cause everytime that i kick
And i really wanna be the one to bring forth the change
Open up ourselves to the rain
Let the water heal our bodies from pollution's pain
So let me see you tap into that warrior within
Feel the fire burning in your chest as we start to begin
To rise up, the Jah People we’re all equal
Let's end this war on earth and bring it back to being peaceful
Let's not forget regrets, we fret
Let's kick back, reflect and get more respect
Its not like we’re set to stay in this debt
We still can protect of all what is left, so
There's no really way we can track the worth
If every single person started giving back to earth
Will the current generation finally be the first
To lift our mother back to our hearts
I n-n-know the way you
F-f-f-feel inside your
S-s-s-soul ‘cause I can
See it in your eyes
So let me see your hands up to the sky
And realize that the truth is always inside
Hold on children, hold on
Hold on children, hold on
Hold on children to the One Love Song
If the warring is ever going to stop
It’ll come from us leading the way
From the elders, earth education
Rise Up Jah People today!

Trails of Light
05:04
|
|||
Oh brother, you passed by the warning signs
That were covered with moss and concealed by time
Always driven by joy to kiss the sky
And the river rejoiced like all who shared your life
Slipped away from me
Carried to the deep
You left a Trail of Light
For all to see
To live a life without regret
I only wish that I had more time left
To learn from you in flesh and blood
But I’ll do my best to carry on your good
And your beautiful mind
For those left behind
You left a Trail of light
My brother kind
To live a life without regret
Still I wish that I had more time left
To learn from you in flesh and blood
And I’ll do my best to carry on your good
And your beautiful mind
For those left behind
You left a Trail of Light
My brother kind
Slipped away from me
Carried to the deep
You left a trail of light
For all to see
In Loving Memory of Daniel Rezmer

After All
04:56
|

I only have time for one cup of coffee
no time for eggs or toast my dear
You know I’m fond of sleeping in ’til midday
but I feel a change in the air
A change in the air
I’m on my way
Got one speed
Born to bleed
And it’s the first day after all
It’s the first day after all
I better set my own alarm
That way I have no one else to blame
Today I feel I’m gonna do just what I say
I’m gonna get the news the old-fashioned way
The old-fashioned way
I’m on my way
Got one speed
Born to bleed
And it’s the first day after all
It’s the first day after all
