State Of The World (Hay/Eru)

Each day we hear of war and poverty
Hurt and Pain on faces we see

Destruction highlights the shadowy path
That twists and turns into the dark

Man will take more than he can
His greed for wealth eases his lonely self

Mother earth shall stake her claim
No one listens to threats that she makes

Mother, don’t let the bastards get you down
We’ve all got a stake in this world
Mother, we’re in this together now

Politics is overcoming human touch
It is all too much

Just look into the mirror there
And ask yourself does wealth assist your health?

It seems the world is not the place it used to be
A sadder sight to see

Just stop and take a big deep breath
Look and smile and see how we’re blessed

Mother don’t let the bastards get you down
You’re children run all over town
Mother, we’re in this together now
Time to change the state of the world

You can leave your fear behind 
Free your mind
You can change your state of mind
Of all unkind
You can leave your feat behind
Free your mind 
You can change your state of mind
Of all unkind

In the land we call the free Aotearoa it will always be 
Let’s lead the world with our warm hearts
It’s where freedom starts

Looking For Trouble (isunray & cosmic address)

This track is inspired by Kraftwerk, possibly the mostly influential band since the Beatles.

The same way that rock guys went to the source to learn from Muddy Waters & Robert Johnson, for me, I went to Kraftwerk.  They have left an indelible mark on not just myself but the world. 

Without Kraftwerk we wouldn't have Orchestral Manouevres In The Dark, Depeche Mode, Erasure, The Human League or any other synth based band not to mention the total realm of EDM that wouldn't exist without their trailblazing albums from the 70's and 80's.

Composed, performed, produced, mixed and mastered by isunray

Come to me sleep my friend 
This day has come to an end
My head is reeling, my thoughts they hang heavy
The walls they keep closing in 
Come to me soft as rain again

Let me drink from your cup
Tell me stories where we never gave up
Dreams filled with triumph, conquest no reprisals
A hero for this day and age
Let me win, just for a moment again

Stay with me, stay with me, stay (dream on dreamer)
Stay
Stay with me, stay with, stay (dream on dreamer) 
Stay

You don’t think of me in the day 
Empty hours wasting way
Ideals without action, without concept or vision
Wake up before it’s too late
Don’t be a star waiting for night to come

Stay with me, stay with me, stay (dream on dreamer)
Stay
Stay with me, stay with, stay (dream on dreamer) 
Stay

You need me more than you love me 
You need me more than you love me

Stay with me, stay with me, stay (dream on dreamer)
Stay
Stay with me, stay with, stay (dream on dreamer) 
Stay

Stay with me, stay with me, stay (dream on dreamer)
Stay
Stay with me, stay with, stay (dream on dreamer) 
Stay

A thing of beauty is a joy forever
A thing of beauty is a joy forever
