Sconcigli

Suffocated by my dreams terrorized by my life. Conversations in my mind creep through secret tunnels, stepping out into the light of open spaces. I feel the blood draining from my face, as I hear whispers of denial from pristine cages mingling with homeless mothers. Who loved the day and pray for another. The dying embers of freedom colors are fading into the blackest of nights. Walking through shadows that leave the mist of time, my fingers are holding fragment of what’s left of my life

🖤
There's only me
No society
I am free
No apologies

There's only me
What I wanna be
Get on your knees
My enemies

There's only me
In my entirety
And I can see
My divinity

There's only me
Only me
No enemy
For my sanity

This song began when Jonathan wrote it on his acoustic guitar several months ago with the intention of developing it into a larger song. When Josh approached him about doing a collaboration, Jonathan thought this one would fit the bill. I should say at this point how much we all admire Jonathan and enjoy his music. On the unlikely chance you aren't already familiar with his music, I suggest you go hop on his page and check it out. 

  All that to explain the level of excitement that ran through Eclectic Collective when Josh shared the project with the group. Chris was first to jump on it, coming up with his intricate bass line even before Ken added his moving drums, although they went back and forth a couple of times to create the rhythm section. Josh jumped on right after that part was complete, adding his mandolin and piano to the mix. Steven was next up, adding his howling slide throughout. Last, but certainly not least, Mark came up with the driving harmonica and twangy jaw harp, and the raspy fiddle, adding them all to complete the instruments. 

  At this point, we had a pretty good instrumental song on our hands. However, Chris decided to give it the extra kick by adding the vocals, the lyrics for which he wrote himself. Our multitalented drummer, Ken, added the vocal harmonies shortly after, too.

  Now that it was in the bag, we needed some production for it. So, we turned to Stephen, who mixed and mastered it in his always expert fashion. 

  This song is a real treat for everyone in the band, as I mentioned earlie. We are all very grateful to Jonathan for sharing this song with us, and had a wonderful time helping bring it to life. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by cgmaness:
 Come on now let's break a leg,
We've got it made in the shade.
One more day, go out and play.
I guarantee we've got it made.
Oh, we've got it made.
Happy to be with my friends today.
Fill up your drink whatever it may take.
I guarantee we've got it made.
~Gibberish~
Don't need a reason,
Or wait for the seasons to change.
That's what I claim.
Go out on this limb with me,
And realize, we've got it made.
We got it made in the shade.
Can't you see we got it made?
Oh, we've got it made.
Happy to be with my friends today.
Fill up your drink whatever it may take.
Can you believe that we've got it made?
Come on now let's shake a leg.
We've got it made in the shade.
Don't need a reason,
Or wait for the seasons to change.
That's what I claim.
Go out on this limb with me,
And realize, we've got it made.


We've Got it Made - (Eclectic Collective w/ Jonathan Beckenstein)

In Greek myth, Pyrrha is the daughter of Epimetheus and Pandora. She marries Deukalion and, as a couple, they repopulate the earth after a mankind-eradicating, devastating flood brought about by moody, irritated deities. Rampant symbolism is the trademark of her story, setting free new hope after the tragedy and being protected and being held by a natriarchal vessel. There is no round-character-equivalent to Pyrrha in the more patriarchal myths of Utnapishtli or Noah. Deukalion (son of Prometheus) being her first cousin, a strong whiff of ancient incest (as institutionalized in Egyptian culture) cannot be denied. 
method: actually, there is not a single loop involved and most of the "instruments" are played with drumsticks ;-)

Pyrrha / copyright jo richter:

wer kann von sich behaupten
wenn geschichte landunter
nicht gilt, was wir gestern noch glaubten
und hofften mitunter

vom roten lodern
bleib ich als glut
womit menschen hadern
glimmt weiter als mut

die knochen der mutter
des vaters blick
steinwurf am gatter
der alte trick
mein herz atmet bang
der tag riecht nach anfang

interlinear translation: pyrrha // who can proclaim / with history drowned /  invalid what yesterday held up /  what we used to hope for // red flaming leaves me / behind, smoldering / what people do not agree with / will light anew as courage // mother's bones /  father's watchful gaze / throwing stones at the gateway / the usual way / my heart breathes faintly / for the day smells of beginning
