about

Awaken is about waking up from the chaotic dream you find yourself living in. This EP is different from my others because it aims to focus on either the listener, or my connection to them. Realize that your ability to live an extraordinary life is as limitless as the spending of money/time, the exploitation of systemized public education, the evolution of technology, and the insanity of the unbeatable stock market. You either make ceilings or break them. But whatever you do, they will do the opposite in return.

There is a video of me sitting down at sunrise going in-depth about every every song on this EP. Here is a link to the video for this one!

lyrics

[INTRO]
Till the end, and start soon
(Maya, maya, maya)
The giant within,
till the end, and start soon.
Oo-ooh, start-sa-nay.

[CHORUS]
I am beyond trapped. Beyond there.
Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here.
Ain’t nobody telling me otherwise,
telling me cause I don’t care.
And when I’m beyond trapped.
Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here.
Some day I’m gonna break away,
awaken then I’ll really share.
Awaken. Awaken, awaken, awaken.
Take a look inside and show me you ain’t mistaken.
Take a look around and tell me you ain’t amazing.
Take a step back the whole is profound
now embrace it. Embrace it, embrace it, embrace it.
Cause you ain’t got a choice but showing people the unique.
you ain’t got a voice until you decide to use it.
Take a step back and then you’ll really share. Awaken.

[VERSE 1]
There is a time and a place for everything.
There is a commonplace for every
experiential basis on every trip.
There ain’t no metric for no emotion.
There is impermanence in occurrence
cause we all depend on the external and certainty.
Why not just find it within
by starting with how you think?
why not just stop watching news
and turn off the notifs?
(Dana Loesch: “Many in legacy media love mass shootings.”)
Ain’t that why you can’t focus?
Ain’t that why you don’t trust people,
or why you’re so quick
(Dana Loesch: “Crying white mothers?”)
to feel you’re always being tricked?
You give and get taken advantage of,
why not just give like giving is the only thing?
Because we just feel like our feelings are
all that will win until we can learn to re-think.

[CHORUS]
I am beyond trapped. Beyond there.
Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here.
Ain’t nobody telling me otherwise,
telling me cause I don’t care.
And when I’m beyond trapped.
Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here.
Some day I’m gonna break away,
awaken then I’ll really share.
Awaken. Awaken, awaken, awaken.
Take a look inside and show me you ain’t mistaken.
Take a look around and tell me you ain’t amazing.
Take a step back the whole is profound
now embrace it. Embrace it, embrace it, embrace it.
Cause you ain’t got a choice but showing people the unique.
you ain’t got a voice until you decide to use it.
Take a step back and then you’ll really share. Awaken.

[VERSE 2]
The giant within been in slumber,
he been sleeping on you.
You ain’t finding him under
places he hit the snooze.
When the weight is too much
and don’t wanna continue,
that is where you look up and
grab the lowest hung fruit.
Laugh and love cause it’s true
that nothing can own you.
Only you and it’s
matter of what the music
inside will outboom.
Every night the full moon,
every flower - full bloom,
every tide is so blue,
every cloud will still move.
Like the crowds I go to.
With my sound I fine tune.
Till the end and start soon.

Think for a second the people
you left on your journey
into the unknown to seal the letters
of the undiscovered journal,
burning every page yearning for more.
Learning forever earning a certainty
with the pulling back
and eventually pushing forward.
Think for a second the people
you left on your journey -
yeah, you did make the right choice.

[CHORUS]
I am beyond trapped. Beyond there.
Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here.
Ain’t nobody telling me otherwise,
telling me cause I don’t care.
And when I’m beyond trapped.
Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here.
Some day I’m gonna break away,
awaken then I’ll really share.
Awaken. Awaken, awaken, awaken.
Take a look inside and show me you ain’t mistaken.
Take a look around and tell me you ain’t amazing.
Take a step back the whole is profound
now embrace it. Embrace it, embrace it, embrace it.
Cause you ain’t got a choice but showing people the unique.
you ain’t got a voice until you decide to use it.
Take a step back and then you’ll really share. Awaken.
