YESTERDAY WAS FOREVER,
COUNT THE WAVES IN THE LONELY SUN,
I GUESS THE RIDE, IT'S BEEN THERE FOR ME,
AND NOW, THE TIDE, SWIMS AWAY,

THE CHILL OF NIGHT HAS SHADED ME,
ONE MILLION STARS IN A HEATWAVE NIGHT,
THE FADE OF DAY, IT;S A PEACEFUL SCIENE
YOU TELL YOUR THOUGHTS TO YOUR NEXT BEST FRIEND,

I'M NOT ABOUT TO SIT TO LONG,
IT'S LOOKING LIKE A BORING VIEW,
WE DANCED TO THE STARS, 
IN THE SUMMERTIME,

I THINK OF LIFE AND I THINK OF THE WORLD,
COUNT THE WEEKS, BUT ONLY DAYS HAVE JUST BEGUN,
THE TEST OF TIME, SOMEDAY, I'LL CALL ON YOU,
JUST TO FIND , MY WAY HOME, MY WAY HOME,

I'M NOT ABOUT TO STEAR TO LONG,
IT'S LOOKING LIKE A BORING VIEW,
WE DANCED TO THE STARS, 
IN THE SUMMERTIME,
(break)
I'M NOT ABOUT TO SIT TO LONG,

YESTERDAY WAS FOREVER,
COUNT THE WAVES IN THE LONELY SUN,
THE TEST OF TIME, SOMEDAY, I'LL CALL ON YOU,
JUST TO FIND , 
MY WAY HOME, 
MY WAY HOME,
MY WAY HOME

Thank you so much Kevin (Mr. Cagey), Fady (Mr. The sporz), Tim (Three Photons) and JJ (Subject To Revision) for giving feedback to the song when the work was in progress!  

lyrics:

strolling down the street i knew so well
when i was a boy and made my way to
school

and the school was closed long time ago
because bleeding us dry nowadays seems to be
cool

we create new dead end towns

goodbye hawk hill lane
i don't miss you
goodbye hawk hill lane
don't let it get you

young people turned their backs on that one way street
and all the factories are rotten but you built a new town
hall

and the color of the town slowly turned into a grey
like the face of a forgotten but the cemetry is pretty
green

a field of broken dreams

goodbye hawk hill lane
i don't miss you
goodbye hawk hill lane
don't let it get you

goodbye hawk hill lane
i don't miss you
goodbye hawk hill lane
you know i still love you
don't let it get you

DOWN BY THE SEA - Re-Mastered Aug 2020

Mastered by Soundcloud Aug 2020

IF I WAS A BIRD
I COULD FLY THE WORLD
OR LIVE DOWN BY THE SEA
WHERE THE WIND IS FREE

I'LL TAKE YOU THERE
I'LL MESS YOUR HAIR
WE'LL FIND A TREE
LIVE UP THERE AND SEE
THE WORLD BELOW

IF I WAS A FISH
I COULD SWIM THE SEA
I WOULD DIVE SO DEEP
SO NO ONE CATCH'S ME

I'LL TAKE YOU THERE
I'LL MESS YOUR HAIR
WE'LL FIND A PLACE
AND LIVE OUR LIVE'S AWAY
FROM WHAT'S UP THERE
(break)
IF I WAS A CAT
I WOULD CLIMB THE TREE
OR CATCH YOU BY THE SEA
IT'S JUST A PART OF ME

I'LL TAKE YOU THERE
I'LL MESS YOUR HAIR
DOWN BY THE SEA
A PLACE FOR YOU AND ME
WE LIVE BETWEEN,
I'LL TAKE YOU THERE
I'LL MESS YOUR HAIR
DOWN BY THE SEA
A PLACE FOR YOU AND ME
WE LIVE BETWEEN

Texte Français et Google traduction

QUELLE VIE JE VIS

J’ai bien souffert, je peux le dire
Une misère, voire même pire.
De la méfiance en l’être humain
Ce manque de chance quand çà vous tient.

Les tromperies, fruits du hasard,
Ont faient ma vie rester en noir.
Des coups bien durs, d’autres assez bas,
Font les blessures qui n’guérissent pas,

J’dis plus mon âge, il est certain,
Nombreuses pages, un long chemin.
Il reste encore pour qui le veux
D’ici ma mort, des jours heureux.

Je ligne mes yeux au crayon noir,
Je fais d’mon mieux pour me faire voir
Si j’en ajoute, trop quelquefois
C’est que mes doutes sont toujours


Quelle vie je vis

Je vais m’écrire dans cette histoire,
Et même vous dire que quelque part,
Ce monde malsain où vivent les grands
Refuse ma main quand je leur tends,

Cherche couleurs, plutôt pastels,
Du chaud au cœur, y’a rien de tel,
Sur une palette à mélanger,
Je voudrais être du verbe « aimer ».

Quelle vie je vis

Toutes ces traces qui m’ont marquées,
Ont prises trop d’place dans mes pensées
Quand je regarde autour de moi,
Je sèche mes larmes pour pas qu’çà s’voit.

Tous mes espoirs sont restés vains
Rien que d’y croire me fait du bien.
Je cherche encore, je cherche toujours
Rien n’est plus fort que de l’amour.
Qu’ai-je bien pu faire pour être ainsi,
Sinon me taire et puis tant pis,

WHAT LIFE I LIVE

I have suffered well, I can say
A misery, even worse.
Mistrust in the human being
This lack of luck when it holds you.

Deception, the fruits of chance,
Have my life stay in black.
Very hard shots, others quite low,
Do wounds that do not weal,

I'm older, I'm sure,
Many pages, a long way.
It remains for who wants it
By my death, happy days.

I line my eyes in black pencil,
I do my best to make myself see
If I add, too much sometimes
That's because my doubts are always


What life I live

I will write myself in this story,
And even tell you that somewhere,
This unhealthy world where big people live
Refuse my hand when I give them,

Seeking colors, rather pastels,
From warm to heart, there's nothing like it,
On a palette to mix,
I would like to be of the verb "to love".

What life I live

All these traces that marked me,
Have taken up too much space in my thoughts
When I look around,
I dry my tears for not seeing it.

All my hopes were in vain
Just to believe it makes me feel good.
I'm still looking, I'm still looking
Nothing is stronger than love.
What could I have done to be so,
Otherwise shut up and then too bad,

QUELLE VIE, JE VIS (Vivre seul)

I feel blessed to be able to keep Alpha Roots’ vibe shining bright for the SoundCloud community to continue to enjoy. 

Alpha Roots sent me these reggae bass and rhythm guitar stem a long time ago, maybe even three years ago in 2016 (bad couch, bad couch)! I originally planned on having Evelyn (of the Reiki Run Rampant tracks on my page) sing over the rhythm but then I moved from Santa Cruz to Portland and she moved from the Pacific Northwest to Santa Cruz, bummer! So the stems sat in my hard drive until new inspiration arrived in the form of Johnny Minstrel, one of favorite song writers on SoundCloud, agreeing to write lyrics and sing over the track. Once Johnny added his deep felt lyrics and magical vocal chords to the mix, the rest of the song came together pretty quickly for me, lol! I often try to put together virtual bands for my tracks and I knew I had to have Jamie Rhind on the track since he worked with Alphio on multiple songs and a reunion was due. I always wanted to work with Jonathan Beckenstein, whose sensitive and thoughtful guitar work is always sublime. Darren and Russ came naturally.  My original drum production work was based on an old Sly Dunbar sample (I like to include the essence of some of my favorite artists in the tracks I work on) but the quality of the drums just wasn’t up to Russ’ standards, hahaha, so we brought Bitzone on board to lay down some drums and voila, roots reggae magic!

Big thanks to the band for coming together on this in fine fashion! Big ups to the SoundCloud community and the spirit of collaboration. Keep on digging! 

And massive thanks to Wou-Wou to bringing his visual arts talent to the project! My goal is to eventually put together a reggae album (possibly a double album which will also include some reggae collaborations between Alpha Roots and friends including Jamie Rhind and Russ Sinfield) with all profits going to the Cancer Research Institute. Be on the look out for a possible dub version of Red Earth Clay as well!!!

Lyrics: 
Hold you tongue don’t wag that finger
Just shine a light on me my friend
Too much fuss will only hinder
All the good things the spirit sends
We were made of dust and fire
Born beneath a brooding sky
On the stairs of Babel we climb higher 
To sights not seen by human eye

And now I dig, dig deep into the 
Red Earth Clay
Dig, dig deep
And I toil for no pay
I dig, dig deep into the
Red Earth Clay
Down to the root I’ll find my way

Some have called democracy into question
Saying we like sheep have gone astray
That it’s been the rich man’s intention
To steel by night and rule by day
I washed your feet with my tears
I wiped them dry with my hair
Can a hungry mouth still offer prayers
Or are they whispers of despair 

And now I dig, dig deep into the 
Red Earth Clay
Dig, dig deep
And I toil for no pay
I dig, dig deep into the
Red Earth Clay
Down to the root I’ll find my way
I dig, dig deep into the
Red Earth Clay
Dig, dig deep
And I toil for no pay
I dig, dig deep into the
Red Earth Clay
Down to the root I’ll find my way

blessings...

——

each moment given is a gift
a miracle
opened to experience 
whats spiritual
so I’m living life like this
here we go

——

awakening taken away 
by the grace of an unshaken faith
for goodness sake 
facing my fate shoot straight 
through all of the pain and the anguish
that couldn’t break me
blessings were placed that have saved me
so many thanks to be made
that shouldn’t wait 
no way to repay all the favor
except to pay forward the love and support
wouldn’t you say?

- so
turn to your neighbors and tell them
blessings upon you
again and again then
blessings upon you
so that they get the message
blessings upon you

and that’s not all I just can’t help it y’all
gonna pass that positive energy along
in fact it’s as if negativity is gone
yeah that’s not the case but see there ain’t nothing wrong
with imagining a perfect world that’s beyond
understanding but I’ll get it before long
so what’s happening? I’ve put it all into song
to capture this blessing my people c’mon

——

blessings upon you

Lyrics
Here comes the noise again
it's creeping in my head
reminding me
of all the things you said


In the brightest light
you see all your life
it's a picture of 
me and you

Stood on the great wall again
chasing dreams in my  head
spell bound
by the girl in red

In the brightest light
you see all your life
it's a picture of 
me and you

In the reflected light
when the time is right
it's a chance for
you and me

reached out my hand again
feel the steel in your veins
driven on 
by a burning flame

In the brightest light
you see all your life
it's a picture of 
me and you

In the reflected light
you can see
right through everything
through you 
and me
you and me

In the brightest light
you see all your life
it's a picture of 
me and you

In the reflected light
when the time is right
it's a chance for
me and you

The reflected light
