lyrics

dry your eyes now
take your time now
realize now
you are wise now

you can hear them
hear them calling
from the mountains
to the valleys

each piece inside another
are reflections of you and me
cardinal directions
steer my vessel
but darkness is a clever thief
i’ll ride the clouds
until the rain comes
and the thunder sweeps me
off my feet
meanwhile the medicine
wheel’s turnin
as pachamama sings in harmony

oohs x ?

age old wisdom
new traditions
constant patterns
changing visions

you can feel them
feel them rising
from the forests
to the cities

each piece inside another
is a reflection of you and me
cardinal directions
steer our vessels
but darkness is a clever thief
i’ll ride the clouds
until the rain comes
and the thunder sweeps me
off my feet
meanwhile the medicine
wheel’s turnin
as pachamama sings in harmony

we are on time
shifting third eyes
wrapped in silence
are our peace cries

you can see them
see them marching
from the sidewalks
to the white house

each piece inside another
is a reminder of you and me
while these directions
steer our vessels
the darkness is a clever thief
i’ll kiss the clouds
when the next rain comes
and the thunder sweeps me
off my feet
and that medicine
wheel’s turnin
as all the creatures sing in harmony
