So you say
By PhiloSophia 7/31/21

So, so you say, 
If I were to follow you today
So, so this is love
If I were to see from up above
So, so you say,
If I were to fall I must obey
So, so this is now, 
this is all we have and all we’re about.

So, so this is sound, 
if I knew the words I’d sing it loud. 
So, we ache for the ground, 
if they light a match then we’ll come down. 

<Repeat as a round>

So, so you say, 
If I were to follow you today
So, so this is love
If I were to see from up above
So, so you say,
If I were to fall I must obey
So, so this is now, 
this is all we have and all we’re about.

So, so this is sound, 
if I knew the words I’d sing it loud. 
So, we ache for the ground, 
If we weren’t the birds then we’d come down

So, so this is sound, 
if I knew the words I’d sing it loud. 
So, we ache for the ground, 
if they light a match then we’ll come down.

So, so you say,
If I were an ant I’d find a way.
So, so you say,
If they lost their minds, we’d die in vain. 

So, so this is sound, 
if I knew the words I’d sing it loud. 
So, we ache for the ground, 
if we weren’t the birds then we’d come down.

So, so this is sound, 
if I knew the words I’d sing it loud. 
So, we ache for the ground, 
if we weren’t concerned then we’d come down.

So You Say

Smarter (Simple Man adaptation - Cover)

Adapted from Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Simple Man”
Updated lyrics by PhiloSophia 2022

My mama told me- when I was younger 
“Come sit beside me, my only daughter.
And listen closely to what I say
And if you do this it'll help you one of these days”

"Oh, take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You'll find meaning- yes you'll find love
But don't forget, girl- there is someone up above"

"And be the smartest kind of woman
Become something other than good lookin’
Baby, be the smartest kind of woman
Don’t you rely on someone else, if you can.”

"No, do not lust- for the rich man's gold
All you need is your heart- your soul,
You should work hard, apply yourself,
All that I want for you my love, is to find your own way out!”

"And be the smartest kind of woman
Become something other than good lookin’
Baby, be the smartest kind of woman
Don’t you rely on someone else, if you can.”

If you can 8 x

“Daughter don't worry, you won’t need much help,
Follow your purpose, chase nothing else
Don’t let your heart, lead you astray
All that I want for you, my dear, is to make your own way!”

"Baby be the smartest kind of woman
Become something other than good lookin’
Baby, be the smartest kind of woman
Don’t you rely on someone else, if you can.”

Song for Lahaina | By Philosophia (Ohana) 

Oh, the way you had to go…
Healing is a ways—down the road,
And it’s not fair, you face the rain.
What we wouldn’t give to ease your pain…

We hear your cries years- down the line,
Found your hearts buried in your sand.
It’s not easy to see, to understand.
But we’ll lend a serving hand.

This is a song for Lahaina, 
We heard your prayers,
This is a song for Lahaina,
Your cross is ours to bear.
Your love - we share (2x)

Fire burns what it wants to,
We don’t have — a choice.
And as we put out these embers,
Lets us hear — your voice.

Raise it high, raise it louder
You are the spirit of Aloha,
We don’t say bye, nothing final. 
We say “A Hui Ho!!!”

This is a song for Lahaina, 
We hear your prayers,
This is a song for Lahaina,
Your cross is ours to bear.
Your love - we share

We share - this cross with you
We’re all sorry for 
Everything you’re going through
We share - this cross with you
We are sorry for 
All you’re going through

This is a song for Lahaina, 
We heard your prayers,
This is a song for Lahaina,
Your cross is ours to share.

Aloha ‘Oe, Aloha ‘Oe
Until we meet - again…

Hey everyone! 

So, this is my recording of my piano version of Sleep Token’s “Take Me Back To Eden” which I revised into a tribute/candlelight version. It has some twists midway through, and some harmony fun. I listened to this song on repeat for about a month and I can’t get it out of my brain. Love this Band, their music and lyrical genius. I hope you all enjoy my rendition of TMBTE. 

Tech notes: sounds best through headphones, recorded on my iPhone in GarageBand with a plug-in stock iPhone earphones/mic. It’s a dirty mix but as always I love to get my rough versions out there for fun. 

Love you all,

♾️Philosophia♾️

Take Me Back To Eden - Candlelight (Sleep Token Tribute)

My candlelight piano cover of Sleep Token’s emotional ballad, “Are you really okay?”

My tribute to a beautiful song, a powerful message and outreach to anyone who has ever been in a deep, dark place. You aren’t alone, you are loved and your life has a meaning, a priceless purpose. 

Love you,

Are you really okay - Sleep Token 
Lyrics by Vessel

I raised you in the dark
Caught you reading by the sunrise
You wandered from the path
Through the silence of the hillside
And don't you know
I could see it in you even then
And don't you know
I was trying to hold back the darkness
And are you really okay?
Are you really okay?
You woke me up one night
Dripping crimson on the carpet
I saw it in your eyes
Cutting deeper than the scars could run
And don't you know
I can see it in you even now
And don't you know
I want to help you but I don't know how
And are you really okay? Yeah, yeah
Are you really okay?
And I, I cannot fix your wounds this time
But I, I don't believe you when you tell me you are fine
Please don't hurt yourself again
Just please don't hurt yourself again, oh
Please don't hurt yourself again
Please don't hurt yourself again

Are you really okay - Candlelight version (Sleep Token)

Some things I hold onto- Like a wave on the sand
Hold my hand in the air, signal that I am there.
Memories keep me down while I’m floating,
Still be still, what I say to myself while I’m drowning.
Move the water. Move the days. Move this feeling. Move the way I live. The way I live.
Some things I cling to- like the wind to the rain
Keep my hat on my head, and my feet on the ground.
Standing tall, never fall, Impenetrable,
Still be still, what I say to myself while I’m reaching.
Move the water. Move the days. Move this feeling. Move the way I live. The way I live. 
The way I live (3x)
Move the water. Move the nights. Move this feeling. Move the way I lie. The way I lie.

Baby Mine
Cover of Allison Krauss's version of the Disney movie hit song in "Dumbo"

Baby mine, don't you cry. 
Baby mine, dry your eyes. 
Rest your head close to my heart, 
Never to part, 
Baby of mine. 

Little one when you play, 
Don't you mind what they say. 
Let those eyes sparkle and shine, 
Never a tear, 
Baby of mine. 
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/a/alison+krauss/baby+mine_20521769.html ] 
If they knew sweet little you, 
They'd end up loving you too. 
All those same people who scold you 
What they'd give just for the right to hold you. 

From your head down to your toes, 
You're not much, goodness knows. 
But you're so precious to me, 
Sweet as can be, 
Baby of mine. 

All those same people who scold you, 
What they'd give just for the right to hold you. 

From your head down to your toes 
You're not much, goodness knows. 
But you're so precious to me, 
Sweet as can be, 
Baby of mine. 
Baby of mine


Baby Mine

My interpretation and cover of the brand new song "Gone" by Ioanna Gika from IO Echo
for the new box office hit "Snow White and the Huntsman" 
Check them out here
http://ioechomusic.com/

 Dark the stars and dark the moon.
 Hush the night and the morning loon.
 Tell the horses and beat on your drum:
 Gone their master, gone their sun.

 Dark the oceans, dark the sky.
 Hush the whales and the ocean tide.
 Tell the salt marsh and beat on your drum:
 Gone their master, gone their sun.

 Dark to light and light to dark
 Three black carriages three white carts
 What brings us together is what pulls us apart
 Gone our brother, gone our heart.


I added the extra verse in the end, mainly because I didn't want to stop singing it :D

Thank you Ioanna, you have the voice of an angel. I will be singing this song forever... just beautiful <3

The Process of Song
©PhiloSophia 2020

Will you remember me, if I remember you? 
Will you write a song for me if I give it a note or two?
Over and over I try again to make a small reprieve…
I will remember you, if you remember me.

How many years will you go back, to tell this story again?
Can you distinguish now, between my folly or friend?
Over and over I try again to make a lot of sense…
I will remember you, even at my expense.

When the rain is tumbling in, will you be my guiding light?
Though I’m not afraid of the dark, will you be the end of my night?
Over and over I try again to lift the cloudy skies.
I will remember you, while seeing through my own eyes.

Over and over I try again to get the words to heal.
I will remember you are the memories that I steal.

Will you remember me, if I remember you? 
Will you write a song for me if I give it a note or two?
Over and over I try again to make a small reprieve…
I will remember you, if you remember me.
