Kak'yo - the Eternal Breath of Light  [Masquerada Soundtrack]

Here's a remix of "FRAGMENTS OF MEMORIES" from Final Fantasy 8 by Nobuo Uematsu.

This particular version is SPECIAL because it features less of Josh's dumb voice and way more of Melinda's magical voice!!

The unfortunate consequence is that this version never got properly mixed or mastered. OH WELL. It's still better!

Enjoy!

SING ALONG OR SOMETHING

you know what i need,
some time away to get some air
i just can't stay

you know what i think,
i oughta be chasing my dreams and you're bringin' me down
i've lost my way

she's like the stars above
you know she'll burn in your heart forever
she sings her song and she will

shine tonight
she'll light up the whole sky like fire
when her heart sings out she'll know

you know what i miss
those days they were just you and me
they've got me holdin' on to those fragments of my memory

and girl, you know what i wish
that you were missin' me and longin' for my kiss

and then she'll see, she's never been so sure
she wipes away the tears that set her free
and i can see, you'll never be that sure of me
so wipe away your tears and we can be

like the stars above,
you know you'll burn in my heart forever
so hear my song and we will

shine tonight,
we'll light up the whole sky just like fire you and me
so sing your heart baby please

(you say you lost your way but i'll never leave your side
you got me tangled and i know i want you mine
you say you lost your way girl, you say you lost way
just look to the sky and you'll see me shine

we'll light the sky ablaze and sing our song they'll hear
our voices carry on our passion it knows no fear
and when you say you just don't know
you'll look and you'll see me)

Wheels of time; e're they mourn, 
cries; (of) shadows o' sorrows.
Sing beyond fragments bound, 
bring forth thy cadence o' morrow.
----
Darkness ebbs, flows entwined 
of jasmine air , and viscous pine.
Lightness flows; ebbs, unwinds 
since timeless pursuit , o'er stem and vine.
----
Dream not of songs unsung; 
Fear not of the bells unrung;
What is there, what is not; 
both are here and of both are one.

For me - this track is about the dual nature of our consciousness, and how our perception creates the world in which we, the immediate, dwell.
We can choose to feed those energies which perpetuate the "wheel", or we can choose to look beyond those things which drive our ires and impatience, and break out of the emotions which bind us.

Regarding the lore of Masquerada, this literature is hand and hand with the idea of a new age of consciousness, wherein we are no longer tied to illusions of savior entities or victimization. Remember - if we rely on someone else, or some mystical entity, to guide us, we are abandoning our free will and ability to create our own future.

Instead, let us be co-creators of a reality WE choose - a reality where the DREAMS we spend our ENERGY on will dictate how the lightness flows.
Our attention on LOVE, COMPASSION, and FORGIVENESS have the ability to shift our very way of life. As the nature of reality is truly determined by what we observe [read: quantum physics], and our consciousness has the choice of WHAT is observed and HOW it is PERCEIVED, we certainly now have the choice to break free from VIOLENCE, HATE, etc.

Listen to these words, and stop feeding the media machine which is constantly trolling us and feeding our own inner demons.
