Lucky to Be Here - My Soundcloud Collaborations

I have found another asset from Special Cecilia which I found very inspiring and very beautiful. 
Cecilia´s original can be found here: 
https://soundcloud.com/specialvocals/aca-cecilia-destins-lies

I hope you will enjoy our collaborating again!

Below are Cecilia´s Lyrics:
Ici et là de par le monde il semble que l'on soient plusieurs
Appellés à répendre de la lumière, à l'encontre des ténèbres
Chacun à sa manière, chacun de son côté, mais nos destins sont comme liés

Beaucoup d'entre nous ont souffert et ont surmonté leurs peines,
beaucoup connaissent les galères et ont résolu leurs problèmes
beaucoup ont encore dur, mais on garde le coeur pur
les intentions honnêtes

Je suis le capItaine de mon propre navire,
je garde le contrôle, je veux pas qu'il chavire,
tant de monde à explorer, de choses à partager
surfant sur les vagues de la destinée

Calm is War

Music video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxGOsGtivJY
Humans seem to think they need to 'tame' nature, that it needs to be controlled,  and things like trees, insects, wildlife, animals are ranked on their 'usefulness' to humans, but they should not have to have a reason or purpose to exist- they should just live and be because why should their existence be measured to suit humans?
Be the person who sees all life as important, all the way from the grass you walk on, to the insects that we can't live without, to what you are eating, and the journey of how it got there.
Please think twice about what chemicals you put on your lawn just to rid so- called 'weeds', which happen to be so so beautiful if you can alter your way of thinking. My happeist times are sitting in my garden watching buzzing bees and insects flying round, I don't need to interfere in their homes, I want them to thrive. 
Most people continue doing what they do, because they've always done it. but it's a really good idea to educate yourself about the environment, its good to change your mind and see things differently, just because everyone is doing it, doesn't mean they are right.

Lyrics

Pretty and pretty wild
When you leave it alone
Yellow and lilac and absolute

Let the weeds grow
Let the flowers grow
Just leave it alone
Put the chemicals away
And watch it all grow
Let the weeds grow

Hello I am noticing you
Just being and being and being
Existence doens't need to be justified
A joy and a love not confound

Let the weeds grow
Let the flowers grow
Just leave it alone
Put the chemicals away
And watch it all grow
Let the weeds grow

Pretty is so pretty can be wise
Dancing in all kinds of lights
Intuitive this magic never ends
You don't need to control anything

Let the weeds grow
Let the flowers grow
Just leave it alone
Put the chemicals away
And watch it all grow
Let the weeds grow

Let The Weeds Grow | RosesAreBlue (Music video on youtube)

Here is an eco driven rock song i have written its about finding some 
spirituality and clean air in this crazy world .
We can all help do our little bit for the planet and help prevent further climate disasters and cut down on carbon emissions i hope you enjoy

the lyrics
Hear the sirens and street life hanging by the edge of your seat
Moloko plus and velveteen think i lived a different dream
yin yang days lost in the haze we gotta find the day
should of seen the warning signs
hope you find a way
ever-changing ever moving
tiny drops of rain
re-arrangements making those down payments
see those planes have flown again

give me sun and give me life so i can live again
let me breathe and receive the wisdom from the atmosphere
nothing last forever and theres nothing left to fear
now we are here
living in a moment of lost minutes and postponements
everything is clear

theres to much traffic everytime i cross the streets
holding on for some green air to keep me on my feet
could be you or it could be me messing with my head
dont want to breath them carbon fuels and poison filled with lead
everflowing always knowing
chances in a state of bliss
always feelings higher beings
erodes into my consciousness

Like the short lyrics' meaning "love has no hurry", music makes contrasts on rhythms and textures even inside each part: Main theme starts with fast drums on slow melodies & has a DANCEABLE? 2nd part with lead bass guitar; Central theme makes fast tracks become slow to the left channel and vice-versa, progressing to a POST-ROCK? atmosphere. Meanwhile, two lead guitars and echoing voices complete the contrasting piece. I hope to get your feedback !!!

Upon This Sea 
Janine Levinson 2023
Guitar and Mix: Jonathan Beckenstein

I don’t get tired, but I get weary   
Feels like my faith abandons me
And from the storm I have no shelter    
I have no boat upon this sea

I don’t feel bad, but I can feel hopeless      
And I can walk, but I lose my feet
I am strong, but I cannot carry    
I have no boat upon this sea
 
Upon this sea   
Upon this sea   
I tread a lifetime 

I am the spring that you will drink from
I give you life and cool your brow
You will not drown, but you will perish
And next to me you will lie down 

Upon this sea  
Upon this sea 
I tread a lifetime

I don’t get tired, but I sure get weary
Feels like my faith abandons me
And from the storm I have no shelter
I have no boat upon this sea

Upon This Sea - with Jonathan Beckenstein

RENT A ROOM

I don’t want to rent a room
In this place
Encounter a neural sonic boom
Inside this space
Let’s go ride our metal horse
Get away from the city
Wander through the desert night
Beat the Vigilance Committee
They’re coming to make us
Turn ourselves off...
Now... 
Well that could lead to a dance
A cyber-laser dance

Well we don’t want to feel your cold
We want a steel womb with a view
So we can catch you and your crew
With your shiny shoe and your clean shirt
Looking around through all the dirt
You check the chandelier
But I can see straight through you here
You've got a sweat on from the beer
And we can smell your fear
You're coming to make us
Turn ourselves off...
Now... 
Well that could lead to a dance
A cyber-laser dance
(Maybe even a cyber-sabre dance!)

The priest and the nun
Are pouring sand into
The joints of my exoskeleton
Whilst a dog with a bone
Is running into trouble
With a clone of mine’s explosive rubber drone

I don’t want to rent a room
In this place
Encounter a neural sonic boom
Inside this space
Let’s go ride our metal horse
Get away from the city
Wander through the desert night
Beat the Vigilance Committee
They’re coming to make us
Turn ourselves off...
Now... 
Well that could lead to a dance
A cyber-laser dance
A cyber-laser dance
A cyber-laser dance
Boop boop boop...

The Universal Dance

In the heart of the world, a circle spins
A dance of light where goodness begins
Each act of kindness, a seed that’s sown
In fertile hearts, its roots are grown

A smile begets a hand to lend,
A spark of hope, a wound to mend
From giver to receiver, the circle twirls
A gentle force that heals and unfurls

In the weave of time, a thread so bright
Virtue's path is drawn in light
One deed of love, its echo clear
Returns to you, sincere and near

* In every touch, in every glance
* We join the universal dance
* In this endless loop, we find our place
* A testament to human grace

The smallest gesture, a whispered word
A ripple in the soul, deeply stirred
From heart to heart, the message flies
A promise held in countless eyes

And as the circle, widens, grows
Its power felt in all it knows
A chain of good, unbroken, strong
A virtuous path where we all belong

* In every touch, in every glance
* We join the universal dance
* In this endless loop, we find our place
* A testament to human grace
* In every breath, hear your last chance
* And join the universal dance
* In this endless loop, you can take your place
* A testament to human grace

FUGITIVE DUB

I've been a longtime admirer of Janine Levinson's work on Soundcloud https://soundcloud.com/janinelevinson. I thought immediately thought that this song would be a fine fit for us to do together. I had only heard it randomly played on Spotify about three weeks ago, but really dug the bittersweet cynicism of the lyrics and the fine melody to boot. Janine's vocal work on this is incredible. She was such an awesome person to work with and get to know.

Lyrics:
you think I'll run not walk to you
why would I want to talk to you?
I want you crawling back to me, 
down on your knees yeah
like an appendectomy
sans anesthesia 

you think you can leave the past behind
you must be out of your mind
you think you can simply press rewind
you must be out of your mind, son
you must be out of your mind. 

you want what you turned off, turned on
you called it sunset, now it's dawn
you can't go 'round just saying stuff
because it's pretty
and I no longer drink enough
to think you're witty

you think you can leave the past behind
you must be out of your mind
you think you can simply press rewind
you must be out of your mind, son
you must be out of your mind. 

you want to kindle that old flame
I don't remember your real name
it must be something scandalous, 
lurks in your shallows
if you needed santa claus 
to buy your gallows 

you think you can leave the past behind
you must be out of your mind
you think you can simply press rewind
you must be out of your mind, son
you must be out of your mind. 

you must be out of your mind, son
you must be out of your mind.

Salt River Town        (c)Chris Okunbor, October 2020

Springing rains are here again, ground is soaking down.
Rolling clouds come darkening, chasing folks from town.

Front porch singing, banjo ringing.
Front porch ringing, banjo singing.

Gonna get me a line, get me a pole, go fishing in a crayfish hole.

Rollin rains are here again.
Springing clouds come a-darkening,
Around, Salt River Town.

Rollin rains are here again,
springing clouds come a-sparkling,
the waters round Salt River Town.

Sister's Creek's got a crayfish creep, but they're running like the devil from me.
Flathead hiding at the Bend in the River, now its hurry on home for tea.

Front porch ringing, banjo singing.
The front porch ringing, banjo singing,
wise-up, about what’s enough.

Darkening clouds are here again.
And the rolling rain comes a-blowing in,
Whoa, Salt River Town.

Hear the ringing, hear the singing.
Front porch ringing, banjo singing,
learning, the meaning of enough.

Oh you know we love, 
the waters around Salt River Town.

Lyrics

Baby you’re lame
Maybe insane
How can you say
That without shame
Look at your hair
I just can’t square
How you might think that
We will forbear
Your obnoxious view of the world at your feet
That the obvious will remain unseen

Please shut your mouth
The stuff that comes out
Erases all doubt
Of what you’re about
So full of conceit
Tossing red meat
To the pools of fools
That form the effete
Tools of oppression 
You don’t know how to use
If you weren’t so incompetent
You’d be the new Il Duce 

Loose some weight
Can’t you see the light through the grate
Of the sewer where hold your fête 
Now gather your crap and go

Oh maybe someday
You’ll get back in my bed
Though I’d rather put a loaded gun to my head

I keep on swimming
In this ocean of dumb
It’s filled to the brim
This sure ain’t no fun
Is there no stopper?
I thought it was pulled?
You’ve turned on the spigot
And out poured a flood
Of the stupidest things
That I’ve ever seen
So blatantly dumb ass
It’s flat out obscene 

Oh baby
Loose some weight
Can’t you see the light through the grate
Of the sewer where hold your fête 
Now gather your crap and go

Dance in the street
Shout out in joy
Give you the finger
Come up with ploys
To stay direction
A hand in the wind
You can’t stop the future
There’s no chance to rescind
What’s happened baby
Been clearly defined 
By stomping your feet
As you wail and wine

Baby you’re lame
Maybe insane
How can you say
That without shame
Look at your hair
I just can’t square
How you might think that
We will forbear
Your obnoxious view of the world at your feet
That the obvious will remain unseen

Oh baby
Loose some weight
Can’t you see the light through the grate
Of the sewer where hold your fête 
Now gather your crap and go

Baby You're Lame

Dark Winter

VI. Viruses and antidotes

Beaten down by the coffin in the way
Butterfly drifting through the day
Never know how ever long its been
Colored in the lines and then begin
A tour that’s been called off for a while
Measuring the curtains without style
The forest leads you on and then turns grey
Better light the fire if you stay
And hours start to slip into the days
And you grew callous in your own malaise
Like no else mattered  so  depraved
Suck it up until you go away

So, you had to call it off
So, you had to call it off

Unrequited Love

I have a lot of faith that people can be strong enough to recognize where they have done (or are doing) harm and make sincere amends. I also believe that people have the power to heal and forgive wrong doings. It takes great strength to walk together through the fire of our pains and come out the other end holding hands, recognizing and honoring our differences while acknowledging and celebrating our similarities.  

May everyone get a chance to break bread together, enjoy some wine, and share some laughs. 

Thanks again to Calebass, Jon, and Janine for joining me together on a 3rd track. We make a great team! It was really fantastic to have Chris O and Belial Pelegrim finally join a track on my page. Chris O and Belial are two SoundCloud legends in my opinion. I am so grateful to be making music with all my favorite people. If only I had more time to make music with all of my favorites on the cloud. Who knows, maybe I do!

And massive thanks to Russ and the Chaos Cookhouse for baking my bread in their oven once again. If it wasn’t for them, I would only be serving balls of dough.

Lyrics:

A rising hurricane blowing out the old
I feel it’s heading my way
Yes, a rising hurricane, heading my way
A rising hurricane blowing out the old
I just feel it’s blowing this way

The wind blows wicked by my side of the street

It’s heading my way

You better blow that away

We hunkered down for the storm breaks 
Sat by the heath till our bones ached
Kept those embers burning for what’s at stake 
Canned those apples for a future bake 
When we can walk across the street 
And give a hand shake 
To our neighbors where the wind don’t take 
A life’s time just to make up for
Past time’s big mistakes  

Well rise-up hurricane and blow out the old
Trade them for a mighty dawn

The wind blows wicked by my side of the street

Push aside the night shades to break a deal
Trade them for a mighty dawn

Even though things still ain’t right
We got deep history still within sight
And at times things can be downright 
Enough to incite our outright 
Deepest ugliest version of contrite 
I still cling tight 
To that hope for that bright light 
That one day things will be made right 
But it ain’t gonna be if we just hang tight 
Word 

The wind blows wicked by my side of the street

A rising hurricane blowing out the old
I just feel, it’s a-heading our way
Push aside the night shades
Break another deal
Trade them for a mighty dawn

I sent a very rough recording of this tune to Darren and asked him to make an instrumental for me to sing to. He produced two lovely tracks for me to choose from, and I liked them so much I sang to both. Here's the first one, the dreamy version. Thank you as always for listening and thank you, Darren.

No One Understands You Like I Do          

Song, vocals: Janine Levinson 2020
Instruments, mix:  Darren Sullivan @darren-sullivan

Sometimes it’s hard to tell the useless from the good
Sometimes it’s only possible to be misunderstood
There always will be trouble, and we’ll always be confused
Sometimes it will be ‘cause of me and sometimes ‘cause of you

But don’t you worry, although I am not perfect
No one understands you like I do

Sometimes you need a lover and sometimes you need a friend
I’m one or I’m the other, and today I’m both of them
But sometimes I am neither  -- and for that I am ashamed

But don’t you worry, although I am not perfect
no one understands you like I do

Foggy, floating in a compromise
Coalesce and then diffuse
My purple prose just leaves you mystified
And radar pierces through the gloom

Sometimes it’s hard to tell the useless from the good
Sometimes it’s only possible to be misunderstood
There always will be trouble and we’ll always be confused

But don’t you worry, although I am not perfect, lover
no one understands you like I do

No One Understands You Like I do  -  With Darren Sullivan

Still Dropping Heat

Planned and release ——but honestly 
My anthem——independent artistry 
stand back——- while I spit this
stay calm—— and bare witness 
amazed—-as I blaze this 
slay haters ——pure business 
that’s right —-I’m your Deathwish
I’m viscous—- your breathless 
for the Fam I’mer —-bless this 
discussions ——just wisdom 
Not asking—-permission 
the focus ——-the vision 
continue ——the mission 
The beat—-the transmission 
and thanks ———for the listen

Chorus
If there isn’t any justice blood spills—blood spills
no money but bills ——no jobs——- no skills
just sickness and pills —-neglected rights ———and unnecessary kills 
if there isn’t any justice blood spills—blood spills

The loss was solid as concrete 
acknowledge the defeat 
watch the nation stand together—— turning wolves into sheep
homeless people in the streets 
without a dime to make ends meet 
a new leader in the seat —-don’t mean sound retreat retreat
The beat will make you sweat 
muscles begin to flex 
been known to drop a line or two of stone cold context 
I always come correct 
respect it and except 
each rhymes on time and I’m inclined to perform as you expect
Now let me be direct 
to serve and protect 
must not go unchecked —so better results are guaranteed in retrospect 
that’s why we protest 
we won’t settle for this mess 
it’s all violence and injustice and we will not be suppressed (X2)
the whole world in distress 

Chorus
If there isn’t any justice blood spills—blood spills
no money but bills ——no jobs——- no skills
just sickness and pills —-neglected rights ———and unnecessary kills 
if there isn’t any justice blood spills—blood spills

traveling through time ---------could be a blast from the past
present or future-------but built to last
now as the beat hits ----------it knock you out your daze
remember the beat------------- was just first phase 
Riding The beats ---------with a hip-hop groove 
now I'm rocking normal -------------I just can't lose
taking it back...
I Stay alert --------and always at the ready----
don't mean I'm dangerous -----just means I'm deadly------
There'll be casualties---as a matter of fact
Person---ally ----------I can guarantee that
Cause I rock reality---------- phonies-----------defeated
Total calamity---------------------My patience depleted
Empowered by the beat -----------raining down defeat 
so cry me a River ---------------cause I'm here to deliver 
another verse -----------------to make you shiver
Taking it back...
Verse
Ain't no sense------- in being ----------so damn formal 
I'm incognito--------- so --------------let's rock normal 
this is IPG1------on the inside track
traveling through time ------------taking --hip-hop back
thought it was over ------------hell----no ------------------I'm back
Run it through your headphones ----------and add it to that stack
of tracks --------you have --------that hit like crack
then eliminate ---------------------------------all that other crap ------
they had the nerves------------ to calling rap
replay it again -------------Because this jam----- is packed
