Try not to screw up - Will & Nikerty

A dystopian scenario! There has been drought for many decades. A generation or more has only experienced rain in old movies on the TV. Enter the Rain Dreamers, mystics with the power to induce mass hallucinations of heavy life-giving rain. Do they bring hope, or is it just a dream? One way, perhaps rather fancifully, I've imagined climate change may play out.

The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up.
― Paul Valery (French poet and essayist)

Climate change is the greatest threat to humanity, perhaps ever. Global temperatures are rising at an unprecedented rate, causing drought and forest fires and impacting human health.
― Cary Kennedy (Democratic politician)

Rain down, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness.
― Isaiah 45:8 New King James Version

Rain is grace; rain is the sky descending to the earth; without rain, there would be no life.
― John Updike (Author)

Lyrics
The blinds are closed, the A/C’s on
It’s burning up outside
The streets are empty, no one’s there
We’ve all been told to hide
It hasn’t rained in many years, the land’s a dusty haze
Nothing there to tell you it’s
Where cattle used to graze

You love the sound of heavy rain
Pouring down to flood the street
But you’ve only seen it on TV
When divided lovers finally get to meet … Love, sweet love!

But I can help you … cos I’m a rain dreamer
Yes, I can help you … cos I’m a rain dreamer
I’ll dream up some rain for you
Out of a sky of cloudless blue (sky of cloudless blue)

I’m going north, they'd like some rain
They want me there they say
They wanna feel it trickle down their backs
Like a streamlet on its way
To feed a river heading down
To join a sea they’ve never seen
And they’ll pay me well for my mystic spell
Even if it’s just a dream!

They love … They love the sound of heavy rain
Tipping down to flood the ground
But they’ve only seen it on TV
When the hero saves his girl from being drowned … Go, man, go!

But I can help you … cos I’m a rain dreamer
Yes, I can help you … cos I’m a rain dreamer
I’ll dream up some rain for you
Out of a sky of cloudless blue (sky of cloudless blue)
I’m a rain dreamer, I’m a rain dreamer, I’m a rain dreamer
I’m a rain dreamer, I’m a rain dreamer, dream, dream, dream . . .
. . . Rain! Rain! Rain!

Rain Dreamers ft Chris Curtis

Lyrics
They Want to know the real reason—why I don’t care
He’s freaking out ——she’s freaking out 
everybody’s ————-just freaking out
What’s the deal? 
Let me know ———why the hell———- you're——all——freaking out

It’s no dream, no pattern, 
more questions 
when it’s all said and done, 
did I do, what i did, 
really do it the right way, 
Each and every path taken, 
did they lead me the right way, 
okay ———-rebel or obey 
what’s right or wrong——Who’s to say

Why —————————-couldn’t I see————-Why couldn’t I see 
what was always inside me
Hey—-Hey—-Hey

Standing at the crossroads, which path to take?
Left or right, it's all at stake
Decisions heavy, on my mind they weigh
But I stand tall, ———-in the -light of day
Ambitions strong, with dreams to chase
No regrets, no time to waste
Climbing mountains, reaching high
Sky’s the limit, I’ll touch the sky

[Chorus]
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 
Why couldn’t I see——Why couldn’t I see 

[Verse]
Why couldn’t I see——-That power within me
From the shadows to the light, I'm finally breaking free 
With every step I take, I conquer doubt
Putting in the work, while the haters shout
No more holding back, it's my time to shine
Illuminate the path, can't nobody block my grind
Verse after verse, I'm writing my own story
With every line I drop, I'm chasing glory
Dreams —just ain't dreams, they become the vision
Manifesting greatness, I'm redefining fate
Turning obstacles, to stepping stones that I create

From the ashes of defeat, I rise again
In this life of battles, I’ll never be a friend
To complacency————to chains that bind
In this hustle——————-I'm one of a kind
Fueling the fire, with every stride
No more shadows, from the light I won't hide

Vision

I had a vision (x4)

I had a vision, when I was a boy
This was my kingdom… I drew it like a child…
But never stuck to my aim… and so I missed it by half a mile…
There’s a wide-winged bird, a circling…or could it be two or three
I could save it all the bother…and then it wouldn’t bother me, see
This is my vision…This is my vision
I had a vision (to find that common ground)
I had a vision (with friends that are benign)
I had a vision (to find that common ground)
I had a vision (with friends that are benign…)
I entrust this mystery to you
For my fate is in your hands
So let’s push on…so let’s push on…
I had a vision…

(INST)

I had a vision…
I had a vision (to find that common ground)
I had a vision (with friends that are benign)
I had a vision (to find that common ground)
I had a vision (with friends that are benign)
I had a vision (it was a real beauty)
I had a vision (all laid out for me)
I had a vision…I had a vision…a mystery!

Secret Music Room - Young Frank Tribute

This one was a pleasant surprise.  Ken came at me last week with this track written, performed, arranged and sung by Joseph Shenton, who I didn't know at the time.  I heard it and definitely wanted to be involved, so they were cool on me adding a little rhythm guitar and then doing the mix and production for it.  Ken added the drums and bass. If you don't know Joseph yet, he's got some killer tunes and worth following to check em out! 

Cast of characters:

Joseph Shenton: composition, lyrics, vocals, acoustic guitar, lead guitar, harmonica, piano

Tex Mex Shaman( Stephen Watkins): Rhythm and texture guitars, production mix and master

K2 and the Three( Kenneth Karasek): Drums, bass guitar,  and shakers 

This song began with Ken and Joseph liking each other’s music. Ken invited Joseph to collaborate. He provided such a wonderful song, that maybe sounds better without drums, but we totally dig this version, as well! Ken asked Stephen to add something special, and for a fantastic third party mix down and master! This is the first collaboration with a couple of the Eclectic Collective collaborators.. we hope you all enjoy it!!

One Twist a’Whisper
Lyrics by Joseph Shenton
Music by Joseph Shenton

Bang the drum
Call the ghosts out
It’s ten to one
N’ we’re under looming doubt 

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight

The cradle is tilted
Fires breath is getting hot 
Pine needles are falling
Your poised to spill all you got

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight

Skin on skin
Check to cheek
You pull apart quiet
To become the object seekers seek

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight

Jump the line
Cheat the deck
The 'bound to be foolish' 
Won’t hesitate for even a sec

Pull down the shade
Cut the light
We’re one twist a’whisper tonight
