LYRICS:

Hear this mighty wind as it blows,
Like the storm in the sea
No one knows when it comes, where it goes,
Like the child of the Spirit

I’ve seen everything
that’s done under the sun
They all seem in vain

I’m given my liberation,
new life begun
But it’s only the truth that will
set you free
=====
【John 8:31-32】

【CHUNITHM】《種子》 ～ Set You Free

Cover: Karen Mok - 如果没有你

Lyric Video: https://youtu.be/dxAk6Yzow8g

With its release in the exciting update for RAVON v2.0, “Karashidane” explores the fusion of ethnic instruments and melodic psytrance elements. The energetic drop sets a strong contrast to the vocal line and intense layering of melodic percussions. The song lyrics encourage one to be strong in the face of any adversity especially if one is beyond reproach.

LYRICS:
Weapons of words forged against you,
Are they worth all your fight?
The enemy lies in the darkest of night
But here’s the truth

Why should you dread?
You’re a fearless man
Untouched in the burning fire
 Whom shall you fear?
You’re a blameless man
Unharmed in a lion’s den

Arise, be strong and courageous
Tremble not, you’re not forsaken
Even lions, mighty among the beasts,
are silenced by faith of a mustard seed
=====
【Psalm 23:4】

Memories ~Orchestra Version~
Featuring Stacey Park on Piano.

Originally, this is a song that I wrote for a girl who I met in high school when I was 15. 

But I would like to dedicate this song to our beloved friend, Stacey Park who played the piano in this song and she left us 3 months after.

#18: Just Blaze and Phil Chang

今夜失眠又再次偷襲
翻閱手機所有我們的簡訊
你的言語 你的心意
一字一句 
在回憶裡 依舊清晰

以為忙碌能覆蓋過你
你的生日卻不知為何牢記
你的輪廓 你的氣息
如此熟悉 
無法適應 無法抽離
我們擁有過的曾經

思念依然累積 腦海裡不斷惦記
何時起 讓愛產生了距離
我用盡了勇氣 面對一切流言蜚語
不再聽也不去在意
只想回 那過去

現在的你是否更開心
身邊是否有人比我更愛你
為你而忘了我自己
不論距離
你看不見也沒關係
只希望再次靠近你 
思念依然累積 腦海裡不斷惦記
何時起 讓愛產生了距離
我心碎的聲音 你漸漸離去的背影
當初的我 沒說的話 遺留在過去

好想回到起點 重新與你相遇
這次一定 要好好地說愛你 也不會再放開你
不再 哭泣 

(今夜失眠又再次偷襲)
(你以為忙碌能覆蓋過你)
(何時起 產生距離)
(沒人能把你代替)

(今夜失眠又再次偷襲)
(你以為忙碌能覆蓋過你)

思念依然累積 腦海裡不斷惦記
何時起 讓愛產生了距離
我用盡了勇氣 面對一切流言蜚語
不再聽也不去在意
我依然 愛著你

LYRICS:
君の声(白く胸に)
吹き抜ける
青い空へ
風が吹く(そっと強く)
もう前を 見ろってさ

どこに向かうのも自由
痛みを抱えたままだって
飛んで⾏ける、きっと

揺れて消える
時間の中
何度でも
君が救うから

今動き始める
世界は誰にも⽌められない
さぁ飛び込んで⾏こう
僕らは 何度でも飛べるよ

飛んで行ける
きっと
消えない⾵の通り道
何度だぁて
翼広げて

Lyrics:
又隔了多久再見面
如今一切時過變遷
從前的我們已經破繭蛻變
持續著勇往向前
 
來就在今天來團圓
熟悉畫面一一浮現
心懷愛與恩我們向妳奉獻
弘揚華教全世界

我的中華
妳就是我第二個家
一路上見證我獨當一面 
能夠自己展翅高飛
然后哪天我將歸巢
我親愛的母校啊換我挽著你向前 
感謝妳

念恩師慈祥那容顏
眼角尾紋嘆息水月
我不再懵懂有更高的視野
那叮嚀我卻懷念

我的中華
妳就是我第二個家
一路上見證我獨當一面 
能夠自己展翅高飛
然后哪天我將歸巢
我親愛的母校啊換我挽著你向前 
感謝妳

世界文明正待我們
師生校友其心之所系
感謝中華
歷史使命正待我們
把我們團聚在一起
中華兒女吐萬丈光芒

妳就是我第二個家
一路上見證我獨當一面 
能夠自己展翅高飛
然后哪天我將歸巢
我親愛的母校啊換我挽著你向前 
感謝妳

LYRICS: 
My grief and sorrow may last through the night,
But I know, my peace and joy comes with the morning.
This emptiness in me, that I have to fight,
Fear and depression, these will not define me.

Oh heavens,
Let me believe that all of my life’s not a lie,
Let me seek the path to freedom from my mind.

Just let me dance, oh let me play,
Oh let me cry out all this pain,
Just let me sing till I find who am I inside.

Who am I?

My hurts and wounds may shackle my path,
But these heaven’s wing will lift me from the grounds.
The memories in me, the lies in the past,
Doubts, hesitations, these won’t hold me down.

LYRICS:
They say don't build a house out of sand,
'cause pride of men won't stand a chance 
Don't cut corners, work 'em hands, 
Cultivate these cursed lands. 
If it's tougher years to come, 
What's time passed by worth to some? 
Your life's a race, endurance run, 
Be unafraid, let work be done. 

Hey, everyone's a work in progress 
Every single being worth nothing less 
So stop comparin', why so stressed? 
Let heavens do the rest, you do your best
Through, blood, sweat and tears.
Blood, sweat and tears.
=====
【Matthew 7:24-27】

Hagiasmos (ἁγιασμός)
The Greek word for holiness and sanctification. 

It is a general term used to indicate sanctity or separation from all that is sinful, impure or morally imperfect; i.e. it is moral wholeness. The term is used with reference to persons, places, and things. Holiness is one of the essential attributes of the divine nature. It is, on the one hand, entire freedom from moral evil and, on the other, absolute moral perfection.

LYRICS:
I lift up my eyes, and my hands to the heavens,
Release all my cries in this land of aggression,
But comfort does not come to souls in oppression,
So, I offer my heart in Your presence. 

I believe not the might, not the power nor splendor,
But faith, hope, and love,
will withstand time and pressure.
So whomsoever sacrifice life for the better,
His name will be cherished forever.

Where there's pain and suffering, 
these too shall pass.
Even good things don't last forever.

But take heart, be still,
Hear my words before I leave,
Faith, hope and love will remain,

But the greatest of all, is love.

Recently, our piano rearrangement of "Anchor" is also featured in DEEMO II as part of Song Pack "Album 14 - The Return of Summer Winds"!

"Anchor" was written to consolidate Aroma’s & Kaori’s memories along with their joint experience. We also wanted to express PAFF’s ability to turn negativity and trauma to become their source of strength, along with her determination to push through grief and suffering, using their experience as a foundation to save others. The bridge section also uniquely captures and echoes various key moments of PAFF’s life and journey up till now.

LYRICS:
Time is fading away, 
So much has been lost to date
All of our sacrifices, our love should suffice
In this tribulation, Oh.

Gravity is pulling me,
but I learned how to anchor myself to my feet
With this new-found strength,
I will carry your burdens together with you

Yes, our love will come through

There’s many reasons to grieve the past
but I chose to rise above it all
Forgiveness is power, the healing that lasts
So let this beat in your heart,
Forever more

Gravity is pulling me,
but I learned how to anchor myself to my feet
With this new-found strength,
I will carry your burdens together with you

Oh, there’s many reasons to grieve the past
you must choose to rise above it all
Can you hear me?
Have I finally reached you?

Won’t you believe,
Forgiveness is power, the healing that lasts
So let this beat in our hearts,
Forever more
