THIS IS IT
Today is a good day
Cause I’m alive
And no matter what happens
I’ve got a reason to smile
Cause I can feel my heart beating
Heart beating
And that’s all I need…
This is it
Feel the moment
Come alive, come alive
This is it
Feel the moment
Come alive, come alive
Today is a good day
And I’m thanking God
For this breath that I’m breathing
For all I’ve got
Cause I can feel my heart beating
Heart beating
And that’s all I need…
This is it
Feel the moment
Come alive, come alive
This is it
Feel the moment
Come alive, come alive
This is it
Feel the moment
Come alive, come alive
This is it
Feel the moment
Feel the moment
Come alive
Cause I can feel my heart beating,
Heart beating
Oh I can feel my heart beating,
Heart beating
Yeah I can feel my heart beating
Heart beating
And that’s all I need…
This is it
Feel the moment
Come alive, come alive
This is it
Feel the moment
Come alive, come alive
This is it
Feel the moment
Come alive, come alive
This is it
Feel the moment
Feel the moment
Come alive

Pass It Around

PASS IT AROUND:
Born into this world of illusion separation
And then we’re taught to run the human race
Earn the freedom when we reach the destination
Lifetime prescription for living to the numb the pain
Pass it around Pass it around
Pass it around Pass it around
Pass it around Pass it around
Pass it around
Never coming down…
Woke up to the gift of the present meditation
And learned to be the witness be the space
Freedom found deep down in the Now elevation
Heal it by feeling it no need to escape
Heal it by feeling it no need to escape
Pass it around Pass it around
Pass it around Pass it around
Pass it around Pass it around
The time has come
We’re rising up
No coming down
I know, I know that I was born to be a rebel
Feeling alive this natural high’s lifting me up to another level
People we’re alive let this natural high lift us up to another level
Another level
Another level
Another level
Music’s my medicine
Answer to every question
Student of truth
Follow my heart every day
The more I let go of “I”
Higher my expression
Instrument of Love that’s the song I came to play
Instrument of Love that’s the song I came to play
Pass it around Pass it around
Pass it around Pass it around
Pass it around Pass it around
Pass it around
Never coming down
Pass it around Pass it around
Pass it around Pass it around
Pass it around Pass it around
The time has come
We’re rising up
No coming down

I Won't Die
04:26
|

I WON’T DIE
Six o’clock in the mornin’
And I can’t wait to get my day goin’
I’ve been sleepin’ and dreamin’
Now it’s time to get up with the sun
Rise, rise above the ashes of yesterday’s deeds undone
Every day’s a blessing and I must confess
That I’ve been wasting so many but now I’m ready to rest
My soul in peace knowing I’ve done what I came to do.
Oh dear God, please give me the strength to follow through.
My song has to be sung
From the heart and the lungs
Before I leave I’ve got to speak my truth
I won’t die, I won’t die
With my music inside me
I won’t die, I won’t die
With my music inside me
I blink it’s already sundown
And I’ve still got so much to do now.
This is the one and only moment
Where we get to keep the magic unfoldin’.
My mind’s been telling me what it’s been thinking about
Trying to figure out how but I don’t want that doubt
To creep in and ruin all the visions I’ve been havin’
So I imagine it already happened.
You can make a wish but if you don’t believe it won’t come true
Or you could have it all before you plant the seed you taste the fruit.
My song has to be sung
From the heart and the lungs
Before I leave you know I’m speakin’ my truth
I won’t die, I won’t die
With my music inside me
I won’t die, I won’t die
With my music inside me
I won’t die, I won’t die
With my music inside me
I won’t die, I won’t die
With my music inside me
I know what I’m supposed to do now
I’ve got this feelin’ and I’ve got to let it out.
Yeah, I know what I’m supposed to now
I’ve got this feelin’ and I’ve got to,
I’ve got let it out.
It’s almost midnight there’s a full moon
Outside my window this day’s gonna be over soon
I count my blessings and say thank you
For this life I know I can’t give too much gratitude.
Before I was born into this world I had no form
And then I came into the shape they gave
And the name they named me.
Like a lion in a cage, asleep with no escape
Livin’ like a slave but now I’m wide awake.
Now I’m free and howlin’ with my voice I choose to use it
And no one else can tell this story like I do, yes.
My song has to be sung
From the heart and the lungs
Before I leave you know I’m speakin’ my truth
I won’t die, I won’t die
With my music inside me
I won’t die, I won’t die
With my music inside me
I won’t die, I won’t die
With my music inside me
I won’t die, I won’t die
With my music inside me

All My Love
03:24
|

ALL MY LOVE
Darlin I've been holding back
Not giving you all I have
Cause I was afraid
To open up my heart all the way
Stop with all the games I play
Now what would you say
If I showed you all my colours
Every shade, even my deep and dark secrets?
What if everything we have to gain
Would be lost if I keep them?
I'll give all my love
You get all my love
I get all my love
That's all I really want
All I ever really needed is
All my love
You get all my love
I get all my love
That's all I really want
All I ever really needed is
All my love
I've been listening to the voice in my head
Believing all the lies that it says
About who I am
When I look into the mirror I see
A broken down shadow of me
Now what if I can't
Cover up my cracks every dirty flaw every last weakness?
What if everything I've tried to hide is what I've been seeking?
I'll give all my love
You get all my love
I get all my love
That's all I really want
All I ever really needed is
All my love
You get all my love
I get all my love
That's all I really want
All I ever really needed is
All my love
Darlin I was holdin back
Not giving you all I have
Cause I was afraid...

Let Me Pick You Up
03:56
|

LET ME PICK YOU UP
I don’t want to be famous
I don’t need to be rich
But if I had
Just one wish
I would ask for enough to love
To give and open up
So many hearts that we could take
All the pain we create
And turn it into gold
Before we lose another soul
If you’ve got no faith left
And you’re running low on luck
Let me pick you up
If you’re broken down
And you’re hurtin now, you’re stuck
Let me pick you up
Oh won’t you
Let me pick you up
I’m not tryin to be the best
And I don’t need a prize
But if I could be
Just one thing in your eyes
I would ask God to show me
How to be brave like only
God could Take away our fears
And wipe away our tears
Til nothing could keep us
From reaching Paradise
If you’ve got no faith left
And you’re running low on luck
Let me pick you up
If you’re broken down
And you’re hurtin now, you’re stuck
Let me pick you up
Oh won’t you
Let me pick you up
Oh another rainy day
The sky is gray
More of the same
Let it fall
And wash the tears away
And if it still hurts
Would it help to hear me say…
If you’ve got no faith left
And you’re running low on luck
Let me pick you up
If you’re broken down
And you’re hurtin now, you’re stuck
Let me pick you up
Just let me pick you up
I wanna pick you up
Cause I’ve got so much love
I wanna pick you up
Oh cause I’ve got so much love
So let me pick you up
Let me pick you up
Let me pick you up
Won’t you let me pick you up

The Promise Of Beauty

THE PROMISE OF BEAUTY
Do you really love me
Or is it just that you need
All I have to give you?
Did you really mean it
When you said that you wanted
To live for Truth and be my Queen?
But if those were just empty words
Then darlin’ I’d prefer
For you to set me free.
Set me free.
Cause I don’t need another broken heart
I’d rather know for sure
And let this go before it starts.
Why bleed from picking up a rose
When I can clearly see
The thorns hidden underneath?
The promise of beauty.
The promise of beauty.
The promise…
Can you really hold me
When I’m the one in pain
And I just need a place, a place to rest?
Do you have the space
For me to come undone and be a mess
Or is that too much to ask?
Cause If it feels like trying
Then if you wouldn’t mind
Please just let me be.
Oh just let me be.
I can’t take another broken word
I’d rather be alone
Better on my own before I heard
Vows made like falling drops of rain
Blue skies that turn to gray clouds
In puddles on the ground.
The promise of beauty.
The promise of beauty.
The promise…

Her

HER
I’ve seen the ocean in Her eyes
Deep mystery, clear, no disguise
I’ve heard Her whisper with the trees
Voice of an angel, pure and free.
I’ve watched walls crumble when she smiles
Under Her gaze, Her healing touch
Like a light shone on what darkness hides
In Her Presence, there’s only Love.
Once upon a Blue Moon
Way up in the summer sky
There we were, just Me and her
Reunited in perfect time
And now there’s nothing more
She needs to do
To keep me Loving Her
The whole way through
I’ve known her for a thousand lifetimes
No space between Her Heart and Mine.
And when she calls for me I’ve seen
How Mother Nature offers me Her streams.
Once upon a Blue Moon
With the tides rising high
There we were, just Me and Her
Reunited in perfect time.
And now there’s nothing more
She needs to do
To keep me Loving Her
The whole way through
Once upon a Blue Moon
Way up in the summer sky
There we were, just Me and her
Reunited in perfect time
And now there’s nothing more
She needs to do
To keep me Loving Her
The whole way through

DANCE ALL NIGHT
Move your body, shake it.
Shake it all around.
It’s time to get on up,
Yeah, it’s time to get on down.
Let yourself get lifted.
Let go of control.
Feel it in your heart.
You can feel it in your soul.
Come on, move yourself,
Dance all night.
All night.
Move yourself,
Dance all night.
All night.
Music is the secret.
The secret’s comin’ out.
When people get together
And start screaming it out loud.
Mountains will be shaken
Oceans overflow’n.
Walls will crumble down
As the Universe unfolds.
Move yourself
Dance all night
All night
Move yourself
Dance all night
All night
Let the sound flow through you
Like electricity
Get grounded in the groove now
And set your spirit free
Come on, move yourself
Dance all night
All night
Move yourself
Dance all night
All night
Come on dance…all night.
All night

Gone

GONE
I don’t know when i’ll get
The chance again
So i’ll live this moment
Like it could be my last
I know that it’s not always easy
To tell the Truth
But it’s easier than living a lie
I know that it’s not always fair
The way things work out
But you’ll never know if you don’t try
So…
I don’t wanna wait too long
Cause it’ll be too late when I’m gone
Come on, let’s not wait too long
Cause it’ll be too late when we’re gone
Gone...Gone
Gone...Gone
I know that it can be hard to find
The right moment
To speak your mind, your mind
But I can’t think of anything worse
Than running out of time, out of time
So…
I’m not gonna wait too long
Cause it’ll be too late when I’m gone
Come on, let’s not wait too long
Cause it’ll be too late when we’re gone
Gone...Gone
Gone...Gone

You Are
04:42
|

YOU ARE
I can tell by the look in your eyes
That you don't want to be here.
When I look deep into your heart
There's a sadness I can feel.
A pain that's made of memories
And stories you've been telling a long time.
I’m like an angel come to set you free,
If you can't see with your eyes,
Look with mine
And you'll find...
You are here for a reason.
You are one of a kind.
You are here for a reason
Like a snowflake, like a sunflower, like a season.
Beyond space...
Beyond time...
I can hear the words you’re speaking
Reminding me what’s real.
But all the voices in my head
Keep me numb so I won’t feel
This pain that’s made of memories
And stories I’ve believed in a long time
I wish I could see what others see
I wish the voice of reason was mine
And I’d find…
You are here for a reason.
You are one of a kind.
You are here for a reason.
You are the brightest light.
Full of colour, full of beauty, full of wonder.
Beyond space...
Beyond time...
I know the Truth of who You Are,
I've known it all along.
And even when you can't feel it
The knowing's never gone.
Through the pain and memories
There's a new story to write
About the You you've always been
And the Truth hidden deep inside.
You're Divine...
You are here for a reason.
You are one of a kind.
You are here for a reason.
You are the brightest light.
Full of colour, full of beauty, full of wonder.
Like a snowflake, like a sunflower, like a season.
Beyond space...
Beyond time...
Beyond space...
Beyond time...
