Path of Hope

Yeah…
Listen close.
’Cause what I’m about to say might shake everything you think you know—
about pain, failure, and your own mind.
[Verse 1]
There’s two kinds of people in this world, I’ve seen it,
Those who break down, tired, barely breathing,
And those who rise up when the weight gets heavy,
When the storm comes down, they stay steady.
It ain’t luck, it ain’t schooling, it ain’t IQ,
It’s a mindset—what’s inside you.
Ain’t about pretending when your soul’s in pieces,
It’s power, it’s faith, it’s your will through the seasons.
[Hook]
I keep my head high when the sky falls down,
Light in my chest when the dark comes around,
Ain’t no fear in my veins, I just breathe, I believe—
Positive mental attitude, that’s me.
Yeah, I rise when they quit, I smile through the pain,
Every loss that I take just fuels my flame,
They don’t see what I see, but I know what’s true—
I can’t lose with this mindset, I can’t lose.
[Verse 2]
Met the ghosts of giants, legends in their time,
Carnegie, Ford, Edison on the grind,
They built empires out of pressure and dirt,
They took every failure, turned it into work.
Didn’t run from the pain, they embraced it,
Didn’t cry when the game rearranged it.
They studied defeat, transmuted the pain,
Turned every setback into gain.
[Hook]
I keep my head high when the sky falls down,
Light in my chest when the dark comes around,
Ain’t no fear in my veins, I just breathe, I believe—
Positive mental attitude, that’s me.
Yeah, I rise when they quit, I smile through the pain,
Every loss that I take just fuels my flame,
They don’t see what I see, but I know what’s true—
I can’t lose with this mindset, I can’t lose.
[Bridge / Spoken Breakdown]
What’s controlling your mind today?
Fear? Doubt? Resentment? Self-pity?
Or faith… purpose… gratitude… desire?
Your mind ain’t neutral—it’s always under the influence of something.
If you don’t control it, the world will.
If you don’t master it, the devil will.
And when I faced my greatest enemy… it was me.
[Final Hook]
I keep my head high when the sky falls down,
Light in my chest when the dark comes around,
No chains on my soul, just the truth that I choose—
My attitude decides if I win or lose.
Yeah, I rise when they quit, I smile through the pain,
Every scar on my heart just calls my name,
They don’t see what I see, but I know what’s true—
Positive mental attitude…
That’s you.

Night Flash

Il a croisé son regard perdu
Un feu naissant dans l'inconnu
Elle dansait comme une illusion
Un mirage doux dans cette chanson
[Chorus] 
Sous les lumières du disco
Tout s'efface dans le tempo
Oh
Les cœurs battent à l'unisson
Sous les lumières
Sous les néons

Rencontre au disco

Heavy Touch

[Verse 1]
You pull me in like fog
slow and unforgiving—
every kiss a confession
every touch a sin I’m still living

I gave you my silence
you turned it into a cage—
love drips like honey
but burns with a bitter rage

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t want an ordinary night
I don’t want a love that fades in the morning light

[Chorus]
Heavy touch on my skin
wrap me tight don’t let me go—
this is no ordinary ache
it’s the fire I can’t escape
heavy touch dark and true
I drown but I still want you

[Verse 2]
Promises taste of iron
sweet lies laid bare—
you break me soft
and I still find comfort there

I beg for more than fragments
but your shadow is what I hold
your love is the wound
and the cure I can’t let go

[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t want to beg but I still remain
dressed in your sorrow bound to my faith

[Chorus]
Heavy touch on my skin
wrap me tight don’t let me go—
this is no ordinary ache
it’s the fire I can’t escape—
heavy touch dark and true
I drown but I still want you

[Bridge]
Give me something real
not just your disguise
I’ve carried your hunger
I’ve carried your lies
still — I stay
still — I crave
still — I fall where shadows play

[Final Chorus]
Heavy touch on my skin
wrap me tight don’t let me in
This is no ordinary ache
it’s the fire I can’t escape
heavy touch torn in two
I drown but I still want you

Heavy Touch

Thank you for listening.
Soft synths and lingering echoes reflect both solitude and tenderness,

Ice Lament

Is this the way the stars collide 
Or just a trick of the midnight tide 
Fingers tracing maps on skin 
Where do I stop where do you begin 

Is this the way we fall or fly 
Is this the spark or just goodbye 
Tell me now don’t let it fade 
Is this the way is this the way

The neon blurs the edge of night 
We chase the glow we hold on tight 
Words unsaid between the beats 
A secret language on repeat 

Your eyes a storm your breath a flame 
I’m lost in the sound of your name 

Is this the way we fall or fly 
Is this the spark or just goodbye 
Tell me now don’t let it fade 
Is this the way is this the way 

A flash a crash a stolen kiss 
If this is wrong don’t make it miss 
Hearts unguarded walls erased 
A moment caught a world replaced

Is this the way .mp3

LYRICS: 
These thoughts go drifting by
And I watch them fade away
Where they come from I don’t know
Where they go, who can say
It seems that there is always
A lesson to be learned
Another twist in the story
As the pages get turned

So I put on my walking shoes
Take it steady, take it slow
Turn my collar to the rain
Breathe in deep and let it go 

What are the rules in this game
Are there any rules at all?
These thoughts go drifting by
And down the waterfall
It seems that there is always
A lesson to be learned
Another chapter in the story
As the pages get turned

So I put on my walking shoes
Take it steady, take it slow
Turn my collar to the rain
Breathe in deep and let it go

Now I’m standing by the river
At the foot of the mountainside
Will the grass be any greener
Over on the other side
It seems that there is always
A lesson to be learned
Another time, another story
As the pages get turned

So I put on my walking shoes
Take it steady, take it slow
Turn my collar to the rain
Breathe in deep and let it go

Vorrei tanto non avere un cuore
                  (Il giudice)

Volo silenzioso e invisibile sopra la gente  
E devi capire tante cose quando ti fanno importante  
Non ci sono sorrisi di circostanza non cè falsità  
Ma solo la pura e cruda sacrosanta verità  

Vivere sopra le parti senza partecipazione  
Diventa una prospettiva vera per giudicare un’azione  
La scelta della vita è un peso grande da portare  
E ti immergi nei codici per deliberare  

Vorrei tanto non avere un cuore  
Per potermi risparmiare il dolore  
Vorrei tanto si non avere un cuore  
Per non farmi influenzare dall’amore  
Ma la verità a volte mi sfugge di mano  
Come un’ombra che danza nel vento  

In ogni volto c’è la vita in ogni volto c’è una storia  
Ed ogni volta è una decisione maledettamente seria  
La bilancia oscilla tra la pietà e la ragione  
E il verdetto finale è un taglio nella carne e nell’anima  

Vorrei tanto non avere un cuore  
Per potermi risparmiare il dolore  
Vorrei tanto si non avere un cuore  
Per non farmi influenzare dall’amore  
Ma la verità a volte mi sfugge di mano  
Con conseguenze impregnate dal veleno  

Sotto la toga nascondo le mie ferite antiche  
Ogni sentenza è un eco di scelte mai finite  
Il distacco è un’armatura ma dentro brucia il fuoco  
Di chi sa che la giustizia è un eterno equivoco  

Il martelletto batte ma non spezza il silenzio dentro  
Ogni colpevole è un pezzo di me che non ho mai vinto  
Giudico dal trono ma il trono è fatto di schegge  
E il cuore che vorrei strappare è la mia unica confessione  

Vorrei tanto non avere un cuore  
Per potermi risparmiare il dolore  
Vorrei tanto si non avere un cuore  
Per non farmi influenzare dall’amore  
Anchio ho sbagliato ho inciampato nel buio  
E ora condanno gli errori che un tempo erano i miei  
Umano tra umani con le mani macchiate di fango  
Giudico gli altri ma il mio specchio mi grida il rimpianto

Vorrei tanto non avere un cuore (il giudice)

Cast of Characters:

J.J. Terrell– @j-j-terrell – organ, synth and composition
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)– @josh-clary-1 –Josh – custom five string fretless bass and PRS SE semi-hollowbody electric guitar
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara –Ken -- drums
Sunnybeck-- @sunnybeck — Beck — synth and MIDI composition
TexMex Shaman– @texmex-shaman –Stephen — Tom Anderson custom T model electric wah guitar
The Beautiful Dark -- @thebeautifuldark -- Carl — vocals and lyrics
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – production, mix, and mastering

This song began as a looper beat that Josh created in BandLab. He does that often to start an idea. However, this beat sat on the shelf for almost a year, until he shared it with JJ for one of his Saturday night music sessions. JJ put an arrangement on it with his organ and bass. Josh quickly replaced the bass idea with his own version of it, though.

Now it was Ken's turn to replace the dull looper beat with something alive and organic, which he did in the most creative and solid way possible. We had a skeleton now, and it was time to share it with Beck, with whom this is Eclectic Collective's first song. She added her magic via the synth you hear sprinkled throughout. Stephen weighed in next with his funky wah guitar. Josh then wrapped things up by adding the simple, melodic guitar lines your hear throughout.

It was almost done at this point, but of course, we wanted Carl to add his greatness to it, as well, which he did by writing and singing some compelling vocals. He took the working title, which Josh came up with having just read The Odyssey, and wrote a whole song about it! The Odyssey, of course, is the ancient Greek story of a warrior, sailor, and displaced king who survives many perils on his epic quest to regain his kingdom.

Once it was all laid down, we asked Tez to do his expert work with the mix and production, which he did perfectly, as always. We're very lucky to have two very talented producers in the group, and grateful to Tez for ironing this one out for us.

This is, as mentioned, the EC's first go round with Beck, and we couldn't be more thrilled to work with her. Not only is she a skilled, creative musician, but she is a delightful ray of sunlight to work with, too. We have another collab with her we plan to release in the coming weeks, as well. There will be more to follow. We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed creating it.

Original lyrics by The Beautiful Dark:

Hold on dear crew
Cruel winds fly north
Our tenth foul day
Land found fresh worth
Untameable sea
We survived people
Ashore
Fresh water
Food
Lessen our feeble

Three of company
Greet these inhabitants
Find what land lends their habitance
Trio arrive and find not hurt
Then found local food
Good offering flirty

Three watered mouths by nicest taste
Who needs home
We stay
No haste
Love lotus buds
Don’t mind the captain
Let’s stay and munch this tuck of trapping

Captain bemused All aboard!
No more shall eat this food mind sword
What of home!
What of love!
Weep not dear three
Cold turkey tough

Smite that sea
Hold tight your oars
Now heave to Ithaca
South-westwards
Bye Lotus eaters
Trip like land
Love lesson lives
Myth mystery scanned
