Lyrics:
Tell me something that I don't know
Give me nothing but love and hope
I hope I can find my paradise
 
And deep down under, and all I've seen
Beyond the wonders, and still I dream
I know I can make that sacrifice
And what is hopeless and what is real?
I wish I knew how I feel
I hope I can find that love inside
Give me shelter, bring me along
There's a place where we all belong
Still I wonder, where's my paradise?
 
And I hope I find my paradise
And I hope I find my paradise
 
Out of the darkness, show me the way
We all get lost, we've all been astray
Hold me close and tell me everything's alright
The world keeps turning, the sun goes down
A moment of silence, the greatest sound
Still I wonder, where's my paradise?
 
And I hope I find my paradise
And I hope I find my paradise
 
And the road it goes
And your soul it knows
Takes me back to where we started
When you're all alone, follow your heart of gold
They say that home is where the heart is
 
I wonder where the wind it blows
The reason why it blows so cold
Spent half a lifetime slowing down
But growing up is getting old
I'd rather feel at home than be alone tonight
 
When all the rain keep falling down
The world don't stop from spinning round
What's in your heart, it's hard to find
But getting lost is being found
I hope I can find my paradise
 
And I hope I find my paradise
And I hope I find my paradise
And I hope I find my paradise
And I hope I find my paradise

Fortunate Youth ~ Till The End

Cookie Jar

Inspired by the movie "The Mauritanian" about (surprise, surprise) American military and governmental injustice at Guantánamo Bay. 

"Some say it’s just the cost of war…
But we’re here to tell the story,
From the islands to the mainland,
From the cell to the open sky…
Truth will rise up.”

Down in the bay they call Guantánamo,
Sun beat down where no free wind blow,
Brother Qahtani, forty-eight nights no sleep,
Chained to the floor, pain cut deep.
Rumsfeld sign with a smile and a pen,
Said “make them break,” again and again,
But a broken soul don’t bring no peace,
Only a mind and body where the hate increase.

Truth rise up, like the morning sun,
No more chains, the healing’s begun,
Even if you fear, even if you fight,
Mercy shine stronger than the darkest night.
Truth rise up, you can feel it sway,
Every man’s pain will return someday,
What we sow in the heart, that’s what we reap,
And the world can’t rest while the past still weeps.

Cheney talk about “do it again,”
Bybee and Yoo twist the law for them,
Dogs in the room, cold wind blow,
Strip you bare so the shame pit grow.
But a man in the ground will rise with a song,
You can’t kill the truth, it lives too long,
Every beating hand leaves a mark on the giver,
Every poisoned well taints the taker’s river.

Truth rise up, like the morning sun,
No more chains, the healing’s begun,
Even if you fear, even if you fight,
Mercy shine stronger than the darkest night.
Truth rise up, you can feel it sway,
Every man’s pain will return someday,
What we sow in the heart, that’s what we reap,
And the world can’t rest while the past still weeps.

What if it was your son in the cell?
(Would you pray for the guard to treat him well?)
Can you win a war by killing the seed?
(Or do you grow more sorrow, more need?)
Justice ain’t revenge, it’s the mending hand,
(Lift the fallen man so he can stand.)

From Baghdad streets to Cuban shore,
Violence only opens the door
For another round, another fight,
Another mother crying in the night.
Let’s turn the wheel, make a higher choice,
Give the tortured back their stolen voice,
For the soul of a nation is on display
In how we treat the ones we take away.

Truth come down, like the setting sun,
No more chains, the healing’s begun,
Even if you fear, even if you fight,
Mercy shine stronger than the darkest night.
Truth flow through, you can feel it sway,
Every man’s pain will return someday,
Plant seeds of peace, let the roots grow deep,
So the world can rest and the people sleep.

"No nation stands taller by holding a man down.
Each human united—we’re forging new ground."

Guantánamo

I close my eyes and I'm there, on tour with one of the bands that helped start this whole thing. Three guys pumping power and life into thousands of moving bodies. Swarms of beautiful girls swaying. I always dreamed of life on the road. Sweat. Summer. Sex.

My mind flashes. The Green takes the stage. These harmonies are mind-bending. The beat- hypnotic, pulsing. I'm so lucky to be part of this magic.

I open my eyes and head tilted back, I soak up Pepper's new single, "Start You Up" (The Green Version). I finally get my fix. Their 2013 self-titled album kept me pushing forward and since then I've been waiting for someone to take me back. I had been out of the game for two years when I was reintroduced to the scene by two of Hawaii's biggest powerhouses.

Pepper and The Green made me remember why I do what I do. I had forgotten the sound of laughter in a green room- what it's like to travel the country with close friends. They taught me how to tour again.

My gratitude is palpable as I groove to this track. Pepper has teamed up with The Green's Brad Watanabe to create something crisp and fresh, new yet familiar. Something indescribably and uniquely Pepper, with a twist of Green. It gets dirty, flowing through ambiance and dub, before being wiped clean and polished with a shine. Perhaps that's just what comes from putting these two together. IMG_6293

Brad welcomed the collab: "It was awesome to do this remix, I grew up listening to and jamming songs off Kona Town and always looked up to these guys."

As did I, as did all of my friends. Thanks for taking me back. Thanks for the memories of a time when I only dreamed of this life, and of a time when I was brought back to life through this music. Thanks for giving me something to dance to till next tour. I'll meet you at the next party. Catch ya on the road.

Hirie--the frontwoman of the exhilarating pop/reggae band HIRIE--grew up a global citizen. Her father worked for the United Nations and she was born in the Philippines, spent years in Italy, before her family settled in Hawaii, which became her spiritual home. 

San Diego’s seven-piece band HIRIE is ready to offer a global spiritual uplift. Melding the balmy island touches of its singer’s beloved home—as symbolized by its moniker’s first letter, a “H” for  “Hawaii,” with that feeling of irie, the award-winning group offers a soundtrack of hope.  Now, with its masterful most recent album, Wandering Soul, brimming with invigorating female-fronted shamanistic reggae an oasis of positivity is just an album away. 

Wandering Soul’s lush construct reflects this depth. The songs feature chord sequences that have a sophisticated, tension and release accessibility. The musicianship is high-level restraint, showcasing that point of mature virtuosity where laying back implies instrumental prowess. The album’s trippy production—the bulk of it courtesy of Danny Kalb (Beck, Ben Harper, Sia)—replete with adventurous textured passages, heady dub segues, and subtle psychedelic flourishes, make it a rare headphone experience for a pop oriented record. 

Reflecting on the power of HIRIE, Hirie shares this story: “I met a fan who was suffering from of six tumors. He shared with me ‘Your music is the reason I get out of bed, you’re my medicine.’ That drives me to push this movement forward to share conscious music. I feel a responsibility and a duty to share a positive message.”
