Lyrics

This is your life to live, you got nothin’ to prove
Yeah, when you’re one with the Tao, you’ll fall in the groove
When you’re one with the Tao
You’ll fall in the groove

Unleash your shadows as you walk through the valley
No need for followers—you can start your own rally
We’re in the lion’s den, but we’re built to roar
Already burned the boat, I’m postin’ up on this shore
Yeah, already burned the boat, I’m postin’ up on this shore 

See, we’re walkin’ a tightrope between collapse and the stars
Though the odds are against us, we gotta drop our bars
Yeah, when you’re one with the Tao, you’ll fall in the groove
Fall in the groove
Fall in the groove
Fall in the groove

Discouraged at times, but always writing from the heart
It only takes one song to break through, one lucky piece of art
Cause it’s all luck
Or maybe it’s not
Either way
I’ll give it a shot

The greatest stories are facing the wind
And turning the sail so you’re no longer pinned
Leverage the force with an effortless move
When you’re one with the Tao, you’ll fall in the groove
Yeah, when you’re one with the Tao
You’ll fall in the groove

This is your life to live, you got nothin’ to prove
You got nothin’ to prove
Yeah, when you’re one with the Tao, you’ll fall in the groove
Fall in the groove
Fall in the groove
Fall in the groove

We’re coming to strike you, to shock your perceptions
We’re here on a mission—ain’t scared of rejection
The eye of the storm is the perfect spot to be
Exposed, but still
Let the chaos set you free
Let the chaos set you free
Free… free

Psychedelic Artist | Music as Medicine

This is my dream space and creative laboratory, my testing ground for resonance. 

I attempt to create songs that transcend genres, bridge worlds, empower individuals, illuminate systems of oppression, and advocate for the disenfranchised.

If you want to dive deeper into my work, you can find stories behind the songs through my Substack:

And my comprehensive life philosophy (to date) in the book, "Seeking Shangri-La: Awakening to the Metacrisis":
