I met Naji for the first time at a bar last year in April and we left to record at his studio for a few hours and this little ditty appeared. 

It's about searching for the childlike wonder inside all of us, pursuing your own dreams and passions, not someone else's vision of you. Choose your own vision.

Bless
enjooyyy!!!

Lyrics:
Say what you wanna say,
and play, your crude little games,
The way you do it,
Put me right under your spell,
You put me through it,
Took me right out of my shell,

I’ve run out of things to say
That could make you stay
Every single day,
That I lose my way,
And with all I do,
To be one with you,
Growing farther from view

Tell me why, oh, why are we afraid?
Why, oh, why are you afraid?

I’ve run out of things to say
That could make you stay
Every single day,
That I lose my way,
And with all I do,
To be one with you,
Growing farther from view

Tell my why, oh, why are we afraid?
Why, oh why, am I afraid?

Why are we afraid?

itssss out noowww!!


Fleeting little moments, and then they’re gone, oh?
Taking half the right steps all along
Is the answer in your mind, within your head?
Have you ever searched inside, within yourself?

Try to chase the future, but where to go?
The feeling’s hardly mutual, and you don’t know,
All the dreams you left behind, you never stayed,
Have you ever searched inside, for no one else, but you?
