The Corpus Christi Carol

Lully, lullay, lully, lullay,
The faucon hath borne my make away.

He bare him up, he bare him down,
He bare him into an orchard brown.

In that orchard ther was an hall
That was hanged with purple and pall.

And in that hall ther was a bed:
It was hanged with gold so red.

And in that bed ther lith a knight,
His woundes bleeding by day and night.

By that beddes side ther kneeleth a may,
And she weepeth both night and day.

And by that beddes side ther standeth a stoon:
Corpus Christi writen thereon.

'The Seconds'

Written, performed and produced by Richard Brown

Thank you Kym for the amazing artwork<3

Lyrics:

That is how the seconds pass no more
That is what I'm thinking
When you take a second glance too long
At what you have been missing
and how we've become
to know what we want

That is how the mountains come to bring
the weight of our admission
when you see the birds come down to sing
you think of what your missing
and they sing as one
cause I saw them come

We don't need to brave the cold no more
We got everything we need and more
we'll wait for tomorrow to find out what will be so 
we don't need to worry anymore

That is how the worried people save 
for something that is coming
with a candle kept inside a place 
to reach for in a hurry
with a single flame
they will light the way

That is how the colors can collide
in your imagination
like drowning as the tall ships passing by
get lost in their reflection

and they sing as one
cause I saw them come

We don't need to brave the cold no more
We got everything we need and more
we'll wait for tomorrow to find out what will be so 
we don't need to worry anymore

It's running in the circle so fast never had a doubt it could last
everything that comes through is the very thing that comes to pass...

We don't need to brave the cold no more
We got everything we need and more
we'll wait for tomorrow to find out what will be so 
we don't need to worry anymore
we don't need to worry anymore
we don't need to worry anymore
we don't need to worry anymore...

*************************
I believe in Rock and Roll  Thrown away that living doll  Gonna sail across the ocean with my motor bike

Sticking around with ‘Kiss and Tell’  Are you trying to go to hell?  Even if you hide behind your mom, it’s killing you

Sail above the sky  Fly along the sea  Sail above the sky  Fly along the sea

Let me bring you fantasy of the wonderland  Let me take you to the dream of forever young  We can be free around the seven seas  We can be free around the seven seas

I believe in treasure land  Gonna search for it with my band  Everyday is something more than restlessness
Say good-bye you chicken head  Fear and anger is what you are led  Even if you try to stop me I’m on my way

Sail above the sky  Fly along the sea  Sail above the sky  Fly along the sea

Let me bring you fantasy of the wonderland  Let me take you to the dream of forever young  We can be free around the seven seas  We can be free around the seven seas

Many thanks to Chuck for his work on this track. The lyrics that inspired him are listed below.
Lyrics by Tony Harris
Vocals, Music and Mix by Chuck Aaron

HE GREW UP ON A SMALL RANCH
WHERE THE WINTERS WERE HARD
THE SNOW WAS ALWAYS FALLIN'
WITH MOUNTAINS IN HIS BACKYARD

HIS DADDY LEFT HIM THAT RANCH
AND A BIG HEARD OF CATTLE
WHEN HE LEFT THIS OLD WORLD
EVERYDAY IS A NEW BATTLE

DRIVING TO TOWN ONE MORNIN' 
WAY BEFORE DAYLIGHT
HE HELPED A GIRL CHANGE A TIRE
IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT

(CHORUS)
HE LOVES THAT COWGIRL
HIS REASON FOR GETTIN' UP
IN THE COLD MORNINGS
SHE FILLS HIS HEART WITH JOY
YEA...SHE FILLS HIS HEART WITH JOY

THEY WORK LONG HOURS
ON THAT OLD RANCH
DURING THE LONG WINTERS
AND LOVE EVERY MINUTE

LOVE KEEPS THE COWBOY
AND COWGIRL TOGETHER
WORKIN' THE RANCH BRINGS THEM JOY
NO MATTER HOW BAD THE WEATHER

WELL, THE COWBOY LOVES HER
THE COWGIRL LOVES HIM
THEY BOTH LOVE COWBOYIN'
AND GOD LOVES THEM

(REPEAT CHORUS 2 times)

He Loves That Cowgirl - Collab with Chuck Aaron - Original

At the edge of all he knows, the demigod stands before the shrouded gate of the Underworld. He carries no weapon, only a question: what lies beneath the stories Olympus told him? With reverence, he crosses the threshold.

ショルダーバッグの底から　いつかの走り書き 
美しかった日々を　決して忘れるなという

名もなき川に架けられた　名もなき橋の欄干より 
流れゆくだけの紙屑は今宵　見送られることで　意味を持った

ショルダーバッグの底から　だれかの走り書き 
美しかった日々が　そこに在ったという

名もなき日々に架けられた　名もなき夜の欄干より 
流れゆくだけの時間は今宵　狼狽えていれば　そこに在った

闇を砕け　それをどかせ 
罪を逃がせ　いったいどうなってんだ

ショルダーバッグの底から　だれかの走り書き 
美しかった日々が　そこに在ったという 

名もなき宙に架けられた　儚き夢の欄干より 
遠ざかるだけの現象は今宵　想われることで　意味を持った

闇を砕け　それをどかせ 
罪を逃がせ　いったいどうなってんだ

RANKAN(2023 Remaster)

Unfinished lost project from right before I lost Logic Pro X...
It was done with a midi keyboard in logic and I used their drummer feature for the drums. 

Lyrics:
When modern prophets of metropolis flow through the stream of consciousness
They're skipping like stones across the water
How many times can we bounce this fire
From the stream into the open air
Before it sinks back into the water
To reunite with the all aware

Set the stream aflame
Let spirit illuminate the current
Ignite the living fire within
So we can dance through life and meet its rhythm

Every step we skip across the 
Water leaves a 
Dilating stretch of 
Waves that transfer
Energy from the 
Portals that have opened up in the
Steps that we have taken to
Connect with the worlds of the profane and sacred
In a dance that eternally unravels the soul

Set the stream aflame
Let spirit illuminate the current
Ignite the living fire within
So we can dance through life and meet its rhythm

(Tibetanized Amitabha Mantra for Rebirth in Pureland)

https://namo84000en.wordpress.com/2011/03/31/amitabha-mantra-for-rebirth-in-pureland-2/ 

I like to write music that I might remember one day when I'm dying and transitioning to the bardo - this mantra is one of the things I would like to remember - not because I'm superstitious, but because I would like to be thinking about the “eternal, pure light, which is the source and primordial ground of our being” as I die:

Lyrics before the mantra were inspired by the book: 365 Tao: Daily Meditations by Ming-Dao Deng: http://dengmingdao.com/books/365tao.php

Written By Johnny Taylor one of my rare cover songs;) I have never experienced the scenario described in the lyrics therefore I can only imagine ..  I do like  the melody and story ..   The original was a slow blues version introduced to  me by a friend ages ago  .. ,  this i did for posting  on SC a few years ago maybe (2016)..Credits / production  /instruments / vocal arrangement/performance was  done  by me  (like  most of my other  tracks )lots of fun  😉 …Thanks!!

Here are the lyrics  below I  rarely read lyrics but some folk do ,I had the time to type em atm , I abide by "lock down " I am not a mask-less roaming outdoor hero ,I got extra time  ;)...


 Lyrics : Everything’s is out in the open there is nothing left to hide. 
I thought we had a garden of Eden and we did before he became along.
Until  the fruits in the midst of his garden became the fruits that turned you on..  Before God we were joined together before a judge we were taken apart.. 
Before he delivered the papers you and him had made  a brand new start .
Chorus :Everything is out in the open there is nothing left to hide all our vows has been broken and I feel the same way inside were ……..
Just like Adam you were my Eve the only girl in the world for me 
And just like that old story once again I was  deceived …
  Chorus :Everything is out in the open there is nothing left to hide all our vows has been broken and I feel the same way inside were ……..

Memorias de mi Costa Rica

FYI  amigos this is a  20I8 update !! ..Many  of my past missing SC hits were moved  to  other streaming sites since Jan 2016 , honestly idk if they are still on those sites  which was handled by my manger/exbff,
however I leaved some  of my colabs and a few solo songs here  on the cloud )... I am always making new music so stayed tuned  for such 😊  .......  I belong to no particular genre..... .. ,creative  FREEDOM is  a MUST for me ,,,

 I see myself as an Artist / musician/producer/ a formally trained pro audio engineer  who plays many  "live " instruments  doing original composition  "outside of a SPECIFIC genre,"   I  once worked with numerous major label  ...  ..  ......95 % of the songs I post on SC... "Are all originals” played “live" mostly by myself and a few session musicians ..... ..Peace  ,one love !!!!
