Levitate 03:42
Thoughts alone. Overflowed Resting still. Ever higher Meditate. Levitate. Thoughts alone. Someone’s up and gone away Carved in stone. Vision road. Mesa ascends. Towering over. Escalate. Concentrate Meditate Levitate Elevate Replicate Carve your own Manifesto Culminate Meditate Drift away Levitate

You’re the one You’re the one that speaks to me, dear Speaks to me, dear In the light desert sand And we dance With our hearts aligned in the dunes

I’m not so sure These pearls of wisdom Are they to draw me in, And push me down? And push me down A thousand years In my amulet The hope is real But will it heal, Or push me down? A-B-R-A They see mirage I see me They see mirage I see me I see mirage They see me I see mirage They see me They see me They see me They see me They see me

Champagne Dizza I’ll tell you why I’m not sure anymore A compromise Has been set in stone I wonder why From the heart and the bone Could we still work? It pains me stay Home again Got to be dizzy to stay I’ll tell you why I’m not sure anymore I’m criticized But I just know I quality -then it slips my mind Could we still work? It aches me to stay Home again Got to be dizzy I wonder why I’m not sure anymore A compromise Has been set in stone I’m mystified To heart and the bone …it won’t work Could we still work? We still work…

Down 03:48
Out of sight It’s gone Down The trails of tomorrow Never to be seen An illusion it’s all been to me This time around it feels more real There’s more on the line I’m older And it matters more People depend on me My actions It’s not worth the fight
7.
You can run I will seek you out In the maze I know The old familiar ways I, the lurker show When you crawled away Something slowly crept In the black I dwell Burrowed down the hole Where I, the lurker… Underground With wide eyes Void of light And cancerized Underground My eyes find Lumens crying A suicide

Wavelength 04:24
And so we yield to enmity Opposing waves of energy Crashing ever rapidly We see this happen all the time And then I’ll see them move my way As I fear they’ll roll away What can I learn from this constant swaying? It takes a death to look all around… You won’t see You won’t see Until we’re swimming You won’t see You won’t see Try moving still Through me Then you’ll see Through the same breath As the sea As the sea’s Spectrum of wavelengths I no longer am afraid It takes death to look all around…

It’s sound to think you’re now bound It’s sound to think you’re now bound It’s out, spread out for you to know It’s love, true love on a mental plane We found a way to perceive the mirage Parked right upon it We found a way to see this through you It’s sound to think you’re now bound It’s sound to think you’re now bound It’s out, spread out for you to know It’s love, true love on a mental plane It’s love, true love It’s out, spread out It’s bound in sounds It’s love, true love on a mental plane

It’s unknown what’s been shown through the summer Bluebirds to mark my youth Now I feel what is real from beginnings And told by Time it’s true There are signs all around that you ponder Do you think they tell the truth? You and I baptized in the Isle Valhalla makes what you think Coming up ahead now With all the phases here behind me Gently swaying, motionless To the gates (To’ve made it this far You’d have sacrificed your life So wander through) It’s unknown what’s been shown through the summer Bluebirds to mark my youth Now I feel what is real from beginnings And told by Time it’s true And told by Time it’s true You and I baptized in the Isle As one, to wander through

about

The emotional process of our creative ambitions. Onset - Infatuation & Excitement - Confusion - Doubt - Depression - Chaos - Restoration - Understanding - Acceptance. It's a ride of feelings! Musical elements include Acoustic, Rock, Progressive, World, & Psychedelic.

Taken from my stream of consciousness notes while creating the album:

It's about the emotional process of an ambitious undertaking. The high of the creative onset, the love/honeymoon/infatuation period, the panic of realizing it's not all fantastical, the confusion of realizing this, reality setting in, losing patience and feeling like the walls are closing in and people are laughing at you, feeling lost and depressed, fiending for a way out and ravenously seeking yourself, your truth, overthinking who you really are. At the peak of losing your mind in this frenzy, you crash and you find yourself on the calm shore, thoughts pass by as your soul, body, and mind meditate with the ocean breeze. You eventually realize that you must embrace every part of the journey, even the downs. Don't create friction within yourself. The highs and lows are a constant. Know this, and be wherever the journey takes you totally. Upon your realization, you develop the emotional intelligence to continue. True love on a mental plane. You have found a way to perceive this "mirage" of pursuing your dreams. With newfound strength and enlightened spirit, you float on the balanced waves through the rest of your journey, embracing every which way. Onwards
