lyrics

(0:09)
I’ve been chasin’ that feelin’,
like I’m racin’ ‘til I’ve faced what it’s revealin’.
Just a taste of this is healin’,
so with haste I rhyme until I find a diamond in the waste.
I’m tryin’ to honor what it takes
to make these words resonate
until they ripple with the tides
inside your mental state.
Let these lines quake,
shake your mind ‘til ya waken to the time.
Yeah, the stakes are high.
So let’s face the fire
‘til we find our faith revived…
We’re seekin’ for the Placeless,
embracin’ somethin’ Sacred,
emblazonin’ the Name of Glory ‘til ya seein’ all the signs…
We need to redefine why we bleedin’, why we strive,
cuz the time is nigh,
the Gate is open and we’re breathin’ in the rhythm of a New Rise.
There’s a vision beyond the blues skies.
Ain’t an ‘ism’, it’s a New Gift we’ve been given to renew how we livin’ life.
It’s a beautiful time to be alive.
Don’t askew what you haven’t ever even mused on
or rebuke what you haven’t yet explored true. It’s a New Dawn.
(1:11)
We’ve been chasin’ that feelin’,
and embraced what we’ve found.
We’ve been diggin’ in the crates for a taste of this sound.
But there’s much more to face than just treble and bass,
so we lacin’ these tracks ‘til we elevate the crowd.
Let us celebrate our better selves.
Tell it straight, and tell it loud,
Heaven’s Gate ain’t in the clouds,
Hell ain’t underground.
It’s way more profound, so don’t dumb it down.
The sun has come again, and it astounds.
I don’t utter this for any other reason than to speak it out.
Let the truth breath and it sets ya free, like right now.
This mic style might help you see the season,
cuz the Spring has come, the seeds are comin’ back to life.
Can you feel the breezes breathin’ like a thief in the night?
Givin’ you a reason to awaken, uncover what blankets your mind, ‘til it shines and ignites.
It’s time to unblind your eyes and come to the light.
(2:13)
You’ve been chasin’ this feelin’,
but no matter where your heads lays,
you’ve been missin’ this unless you seekin’ somethin’ deeper than you crave.
So step into your chrysalis and let your past detach until your ready for this new stage.
Keep yourself steady, cuz it’s more than but a temporary state.
Everything in life might change, but the dawn is on us, so it’s to time to honor why we pray.
Actions lead the way, cuz the fact is, that the task is more than but a passive wait.
When ya look back after ya pass away, what will you say?
I’m not askin’ you to pass on you blame,
but I’m askin’ myself and maybe you might be askin’ the same.
I’m not dwellin’ on the past, but I’m aimin’ to change.
And that’s this feelin’ that I’m chasin’, I’m just facin’ the pain,
and tryin’ to understand how to be the person I’m searchin’ to raise.
