Hard Times

A song written in two evenings by My friend Simon and I. Well written but poorly mixed but here it is! 

I Got Love

I wrote this song leading up to Friends General Conference Gathering 2017. It is inspired by the work of Pamela Boyce Simms, Rumi's poem The Whaterwheel, and Joni Mitchel's song Woodstock.

Recorded on an Iphone. 1 take. No editing. It is what it is. Enjoy!

LYRICS:

Awake my soul and clear the smog
Moving inward and outward as children of god
Celebrate each other as the great transition moves
Come back to the garden as carbon and changing yet you!

Chorus:
Be here now
Where light moves 
Be here now (2x)

Be here now
Where Ripples form 
Be here now (2x)

Together Friends! Don't scatter and sleep
Emerging now with a powerful voice we speak!
It's time to heal, to fear is to feel
Nothing less and we are blessed

Chorus

We are learning what it is we've always known
We are Golden, billions of years old
We are Old, older than our years
We are stardust mixed with our grandmother's tears

Chorus:
We are here now!
Where the light moves
We are here now (2x)

Be here now
Where Ripples form 
Be here now (2x)

-------------------------------------------
I started writing songs using the guitar as accompaniment at the end of 2012 while I was living in the cloud forests of Costa Rica and volunteering at a bi-lingual Quaker school. I play an Ariana classical guitar; a gift from my eldest sibling. I draw inspiration from a background of intercultural and interfaith multi-media art and performance.
