Lyrics:

I'm staring, My eyes tearing through the night as I rest my head
Trying to forget what reveals itself in the light above my bed

Face the spider parallel on the ceiling
To maybe change my perception of feeling
Maybe if i stare so long
it'll become so numb
just trying to overcome
Might not need a chase of rum
Or even a hit to make me dumb

The dreaded fear that's above my head
Like the cover of a book that is barely read
Every eye, every leg, It's own demon
Should I flush it all away with the spray of my semen?

Just close your eyes
Move on closer
Open wide
Take a bite
Accept the sin
swallow it down
Take the monsters in
And turn them around

Facing Fears

Quiet secret kiten's garden

Agua Fresca

El otro día pensando en cambiar
esta rutina de tanto esperar
tomé la ruta y me fui a manejar
lejos de esta gran ciudad

llegué a un pueblito y me puse a mirar
un cartel dice aquí no hay un hospital
pregunto como no hay enfermedad
Es el agua del lugar, y me das.

Agua fresca de un canal,
que viene de un manantial,
quien la toma no se enferma,
no se muere, no se va.

Los de este pueblo no tienen maldad
no hay campo santo, si hay vitalidad
vivir mil años es lo más normal
es al agua del lugar,
y me das.

Agua fresca de un canal
que viene de un manantial
quien la toma no se enferma,
no se muere, no se va.

No hay policías, no hay autoridad
no hay papeleos, si no hay tribunal.
y si hay conflictos se van a brindar
con agua del manantial.
Y me das.

Agua fresca de un canal
que viene de un manantial
quien la toma no se enferma,
no se muere, no se va.

I feel so lucky that Dave Orestes 1 allowed me to record a rendition of his wonderful song " What Is Rich" !

Lyrics (Dave Orestes):

What is rich? You're asking me
Rich is so simple, don't you see
It's not what you own but what you do and say
.
What is rich? You're asking me
It's not hard to explain
It's all about what you feel
And not what you touch
Every day
.
Rich is how well you sleep at night and
your thoughts on your own death bed
when you have few regrets
few regrets
.
Rich is passing on
the prospect of hope
so that all have a chance
to prosper and grow
Rich is not how tall 
Your sky scrapers grow
no no no no
.
Or the number of seats
in your stadium row 
It's not how many toys
in the attic you've stowed 
oh no no
that's not it
.
What is rich? You're asking me
Oh it's not hard to explain
It's all about what you feel
Not what you touch every day 
.
Rich is when
All the children are fed
And each of them has 
A warm safe bed
Rich is how 
You care for people 
That, you've never met
.
It's not hard to explain 
It's all about what you feel 
And not what you touch
Every day
.
Doo da doo da doo
Laa la laa la laa
Laa la laa la laa
Laa la laa
La laa la la
.

Happy Friday to my SC friends. Today’s musical offering is very special to me because it signifies a breaking away from my old patterns. Long story short… old Justin was pretty set in his music making/production routines (solo work belongs on solo albums. Collab work belongs on collab albums. And never the two shall meet). 

But new Justin is proving to be surprisingly more flexible in his thinking; an interesting (I might even go as far as to say… shocking) result of my new paradigm. And while it might seem like a ‘nothing burger’ to most people… the way my brain is wired, this is a huge change… and one I am grateful for.

So today I happily offer my first collab song, also intended for my first hybrid album. The song is called ‘Life In Twilight’… and my guest artist is our dear friend, Carlos Vivanco (https://soundcloud.com/carlosvivanco-1, https://carlosvivanco1.bandcamp.com), offering up the lovely Alto Sax and Guitar you hear in this piece

If you haven’t already crossed paths with Carlos, you are missing out. He is one of the most prolific people I have encountered in my travels. He plays about 30+ instruments, each with impressive skill. And if the instrument doesn’t exist... he creates it himself. And 'musician' is just one aspect of his inspiring and adventurous life. He is a great example of a person who discovered his passions early, and is now living a beautiful life pursuing those passions. We need more people like him in this world, reminding us of what is truly important.

On a personal level, the stuff Carlos has taught me over the years has helped me ease into this new sober life with tremendous grace. The music theory and instrumental lessons have helped make my sonic worlds more sophisticated (and therefore more rewarding to craft). And the moving and breathing meditations (Chi energy exercises) have proven fundamental to my mental/spiritual well being too. Needless to say, he has been a major influence in my evolving life; and I will be forever grateful. 

Carlos, I am honored beyond words that you are the guest artist on my first hybrid album. It signifies a great new direction for me. I’m excited to be on this path, and I’m glad you agreed to join me. 

To everyone else, we hope you enjoy “Life In Twilight”, the first of two new songs with Carlos that will ultimately wrap up my upcoming album “What Color Is Your Paradox?” 

(And yes... this is the last song I still had in the archives from my little break; originally finished on 1/20/2024. It's all going to be new content from here on out). :)

Lyrics:
Desert death
No glass no mirror
Reflect the heat, but not the Sun
Barely alive and barely breathing
What was the prize when the West was won?

Think you're happy
and I think you're great
No trees no shade
but I can wait
Cause love's a shadow 
and I know
what it is I need to create

No place to hide 
but underneath the water
I must be tired but
I still want her

He doesn't dress like other men
Not even a little
So I wonder, then
What's in the middle?

I guess you're happy 
and I think that's great
No answers yet but
I can wait
Cause love's a shadow
and I know
what it is I need to create

Great people
and great advice
But my mind
is a sieve not a vice
And my neck
is ready to split and choke
Avec all the meanings I evoke
(all the dreams and thoughts)

That makes you happy 
I think that's great
Pure, innocence
I cannot wait
Cause love's a shadow 
and a color
I know
A shade
That I need to create

A cover of the band Los Bravo's 60's Classic "Black is Black" with a bit of a different take. I hope you enjoy it!

Black Is Black

This is about the life of the artist, Eduardo Paolozzi, and about using experiences to inform the creation of art.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Such a lot to think about 
When your family is
Pulled down under the waves
That crash
Around the sunken ship
That was trying to take you back home

The sea we used to gaze upon
From the family shop that sold ice cream
To kids, they were on their holidays
Before they went back home

Close your eyes
And you can go right back there

What do you see?
Eduardo draws it carefully
The fisherman and his wife
Are calling
They want to help you get back home
Before it’s too late

Melt down those memories
Make something new
For a station
By a building

It’s 100 ft tall
It towers above

Melt down those memories
A ritual forgot
Sculpted anew
Just like the wave
That swept your family away
