This is one of those songs, you just had to get off your chest! All of you creatives will understand that. Its not the hippest or the coolest song , even the music  is understated and the production is lacking, but the words are where the heart is .

Thank you for all of your wonderful plays playlists and shares, very much appreciated!

Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)-- @josh-clary-1 – lead guitar, organ, and synth
 
This song started when Xian and Holger came up with the rhythm section. Xian reached out to me about adding some guitar and keys. I happily accepted and added some electric guitar, organ, and synth. Once I was done, I sent it back to Xian, who added his excellent vocals. Tez also added some subtle, yet thrilling psychedelic guitar to it, too, before producing and mixing it for us. 
  During a little odyssey Xian recently undertook, he came across this snippet of text, from which the lyrics were drawn, in the Museum of Literature in Dublin. It's from "Ulysses" (1923) by James Joyce (1882-1941) and he liked it immediately. The passage can be found in the episode "Cyclops", in which the novel's hero, Bloom, opposes division and prejudice.
  This is the first time Xian has collaborated with Tez and me, but we hope it won't be the last. Xian is everything we could ask for in a collaborator. He presented me with a really solid, but very open song, let me do my thing, and added more greatness to finish it off. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed making it.
Lyrics to Alf And Bloom:

(But it’s no use) …

(- What? says Alf) …     

But it’s no use says he
Force, hatred, history
All that
That’s not life 
For men and women,

(- What? says Alf) …

Insult and hatred
And everybody knows that
It’s the very opposite of that
That is really life.

- What? says Alf
- Love, says Bloom

(- What? says Alf)
(- Love, says Bloom)

(- Love)

I met Dave Bayes on soundcloud, with his beautiful compositions and excellent guitarplay. We had already worked together. I needed a beautiful instrumental and he needed a voice,...look what happened. Hope you like it!

Zen warrior lyrics

I’m not the kind of girl
That you see in me
I not even come close to who you want me to be
You see in me some kind of fighter in your fantasy
You call me zen warrior
Well it isn’t me, it isn’t me it isn’ t me , no  no

I’m mostly calm and at ease, my breath is deep as a soft slow breeze
Live and let live, avoid the negative
I am I am I am totally zen
(4x)

You never see me start a fight
but don’t attack me
Don’t touch my basic right 
Wanna stay out of trouble
Don’t wanne make it double
Zen warrior zen warrior

What humans of our century are sorely lacking is the mental capacity for reflection, which has become very rare!
Think before you act, because afterwards, it will be too late once the dice are thrown... victory as well as defeat, with tears and gnashing of teeth...
“It is better to think before acting than to regret after having acted” Democritus

Ce qui manque cruellement aux humains de notre siècle, c'est la capacité mentale de la réflexion qui est devenue très rare !
Réfléchir avant d'agir, car après, il sera trop tard une fois les dès lancés... la victoire comme la défaite, avec des pleurs et des grincements de dents...
"Mieux vaut réfléchir avant d'agir que regretter après avoir agi" Démocrite

Reflection

Well, let’s see…. Glad you dropped by because you get to listen to some electric slide with some vocal harmonies. The lyrics come from a first draft of another song I recently wrote. They were ideas I had about war and peace, and the beliefs behind them. So now there are two different songs each unique in their own way. I remember way back when, going to a cemetery with my grandma and our family, to visit my grandfather’s grave. I was 10 and had my younger brother on my shoulders as him and I walked around reading the names on the gravestones out loud, and laughing, while making up our own funnier names using theirs… We were having a grand old time… My dad walked across the cemetery to get us. He was angry. He marched us over to this dank stone church, and told us to sit in there and not make a peep. When my grandma died, my parents planted a memorial dogwood tree in our yard. My other grandmother whispered to me, when I was still a kid… please don’t let them plant a tree for me when I die. I liked her. She told it as it is. No bullshit. Oh, that dogwood died shortly after it was planted. Well I got side-tracked from what I really wanted to say. Such is life. Hope you like the song, Mark

The nicest words someone said to me:

"Do you know what you are? You are a manuscript oƒ a divine letter. You are a mirror reflecting a noble face. This universe is not outside of you. Look inside yourself; everything that you want, you are already that.”

I also got hate over me. So I need some time to reflect.
Singing and making music brought me in a flow... My lyrics revealing what i've found or lost on my way, what i was thinking.

The past months i moved on high speed, while the soul travels on foot.
I hold still now on my way, to look in myself, see if the soul catches up with me.
