TAKE MY HAND
Take my hand
I'll take you to a place
where there are no walls no problems to face
Take my hand
Take you on a trip that won't cost us a dime
Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand don't ever land
Take my hand
Take my hand
It's the only way to understand
Take my hand
I wanna show you whats really going on inside my head
Take my hand
Lead you to my dreams as I sleep on this bed
Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand don't ever land
Take my hand
Take my hand
It's the only way to understand me

MONDAY MORNING
Good morning Monday morning
Your light is shining on me
Leaving shadows everywhere
I'm out the door without a care
Good morning Monday morning
Your light is shining on me
Good morning Monday morning
Leaving shadows everywhere
I'm out the door without a care
And everyone outside the door
Will live their lives
And everyone inside the store
Will sharpen knives
But you won't find me doing that
Living easy where I’m at
Good morning Monday morning
Your light is shining on me
Good morning Monday morning
Leaving shadows everywhere
I'm out the door without a care

MILES UNDER WATER
If I had a guitar I’d get farther
No better place under the sun
Now that I’m here I won't bother you at all
I'll just run
I'll find a place
right by the mountainside
I'll follow the trace
Of lovely moments far gone
When the sun shines on your face
It illuminates a goddess to me
I'm in the darkness I’m in the shade
I'm just a shadow that nobody sees
Lover won't you please set me free?
If I had a guitar I’d get farther
No better place under the sun
Now that iIm here I won't bother you at all
I'll just run
I'll find a place
right by the mountainside
Where the palm trees surround me
And the desert heat grounds me now
And my mind sinks beneath me
Miles under water

THE SUN WOMAN

THE SUN WOMAN
I was born from the core of the universe
In the realm of pure fire
Where heat melts, explodes, and gives life
Where stars fuse to form andromeda
Where atoms cycle furiously to form celestial bodies
I am the light that commences the day
That provides sustenance to all creatures everywhere on Earth
I am the source of all energy
I am the mother of all men
I am the Sun Woman
And your arrogance enrages me
You think you are gods?
You think you have eaten from the tree of eternal knowledge?
You are no different than the birds or the bees
you have broken my laws by claiming my throne
and destroying the cycle of life on this planet
that I have worked so hard to maintain
I am the Sun Woman
You haven't felt my wrath
And you have not yet felt my hottest flame
I am the Sun Woman
You have forgotten my name
I am the Sun Woman
Bow to your maker as your ancestors once did
Or perish within the purgatory of your own making
I am the Sun Woman
I am the Sun Woman

PATTERNS OF BEING
Everybody is everything
And everything is everybody
Everybody is everything and more
Anything just comes down to its core
And every time you lost your mind
You've always managed to remember those
Patterns of being that make you you
And every time you lost your mind
You've always managed to remember that
Everybody is everything
And everything is everybody
Everybody is everything and more
Anything just comes down to its core
We're like lava pouring on the floor
Anything just comes down to its core
And every time you lost your mind
You've always managed to remember those
Patterns of being that make you you
And every time you lost your mind
You've always managed to remember those
Patterns of being that make you you

NEON LIGHT
I walk the Earth in search of a place
Everywhere reminds me of space
I look up to see what’s floating
In the air it's quickly going
By the Earth it's always turning
Like the steaming pot I'm churning
Everything in me
Everything I see
Now I feel the ether moving all around
Magic is in the air it's floating from the ground
Like bioluminescent dots of neon light
Emanating from the sand at night
Water is ever moving
Constantly pulled by the tide
I'm chasing you forever
You are the star that I ride
Darling dear don't be afraid
We'll carve our space on earth
All I want to do
Is feel alive like you

HOW THE RHYTHM CAME TO BE
One bright fine morning my child, being the inquisitive ray of sunshine that she is, asked me this question:
How did the rhythm come to be?
And I said to her I told her this:
One day the gods gathered in a tree and they spent 1000 years trying to figure out how to set themselves free.
Life had become all too dreary for the gods. Eons of time made them sick and tired of their immortal all knowingness, sick and tired of the perpetual and instant information that rendered their senses useless
They were bored and saddened at the mundane staleness of their infinite wisdom. It made the universe itself an inescapable purgatory trapped inside their heads.
So the gods made a pact. And with a special drink made from the core of the Earth they toasted to the complete erasure of every bit of knowledge of every single thought they had ever had.
With a drink they would die and be reborn. They would no longer be gods. No longer possess the qualities of godliness: immortality and total control.
So they drank and after a slumber of a 1000 years they awoke
They had no idea what was going on around them.
The cry of the macaw, the roar of the jaguar, the sweat pouring down their faces.
They quickly climbed down the tree, found refuge in a nearby cave, and wept.
Before: as all knowing gods they could not see, they could not hear, they could not feel because the eons of eternal godliness had numbed their senses to a mushy monotonous drone.
But now their new born selves could feel everything. All was a vivid mystery and the sounds were so intense that they danced uncontrollably for what seemed an eternity. The rhythm of the chirping crickets, the rhythm of the howling monkeys, the rhythm of the undulating fire and the rhythm of the flickering stars poured loads of passion into their reawakened hearts.
The rhythm had always been there, but the gods had to rid themselves of their godliness to feel it.
And thats how the rhythm came to be my inquisitive ray of sunshine. That’s how the rhythm came to be.

SATURN
I see the morning light
It makes me feel so bright
I love you cuz i'm lazy
I love you for all time
I've awoken from this dream
But I am not so sure
I love you cuz i'm crazy
I love you for all time
I love you for all time
I hear you call my name
It echoes from the past
Feel you in my heart now
The soul will always last
The soul will always last
The light it lingers on
As we travel through space
Saturn is falling quickly
Soon its gonna blast
I love you for all time

NEW DAY
The new day begins
What will be all depends on you and me
How do you synthesize the sunrise?
I let the sun rays move me where they may
Now I'm everywhere at once
Because I feel the sky
When I swim in the sea
And I hear my own sound
When I move with the wave
Everything is lovely as I'm feeling all the world
I've always known the beauty of today
Cuz now is always here
So what is there to fear?
In the absence of light
In the darkness of night
My lovers body feels so right
Life is beautiful and goes on
Infinitely
