The Big Bang Beat
03:57
|
|||
|
rock to the beat
this universe is music, its music
i didnt make this up or choose it, i didnt choose it
but its a series of varying vibrations
and when you rock to the beat its a heck of a sensation
theres an epic chorus, and some major verses
so rock to the rhythm and become the moment, like the universe is
the universe is music whoa
and i couldnt be more enthusiastic, oh no
this moment oh, its the beat of the song
and the thing is it cant be measured so it isnt short or long
but the other thing is theres no where else that you belong
so rock to the rhythm of the beat and keep on going strong
oh, celebrate the big bang beat in the street
rock to the beat

keep it on the upbeat yeah, keep that hi hat going strong
keep on keeping on and rock to the rhythm of this song
oh we're going up. yeah we're going up,
we're on the upbeat like a hi hat
oh we're going up, yeah we're going up
and theres no turning back oh we're on the attack
we're on the up and up
a special thanks to natalie, for being on her journey
and sharing that she loves the upbeat
and sharing her mythologies with me
but thats a whole different story
will you join us, will you join us on the upbeat
we've got the potential for an army
an army of light, all on the up and up
put that hat on the upbeat every day and we just can't get enough
as of now, we number only few
but join us on the upbeat and well be stronger with you
as of now, we number only two
but join us on the up and up if you want to!

i dont know whether anyone hears these words you know
but i like to express myself, and i enjoy being thorough, whoa
i like to be able to put these words to song
and i LOVE the idea of bringing you along, bringing you along
oh you know i love sharing my thoughts
and it used to be harder, but today its not
and even though i dont know who's out there listening
ill just keep singing right along, and ill keep on writing songs
its double time, its double time
and fade

Found it In the Weeds
04:04
|
|||
|
its beyond me
its not that big a deal but many years ago i found a higher power
the feelings i got from this were amazing and lasted under an hour
the sentiments and the philosophies, they lasted much longer
and once i integrated what i learned my spirit became stronger
a spirits not that big a deal either
you might see it like ghosts or aliens but its neither
its a tick mark is all, the knowledge somethings here
it exists and has experiences, am i clear?
oh yes, i found god in the weeds that day
even though some dont understand the word ill use it anyway
just to indicate that theres a higher game at play
its beyond, its beyond me
the thing about my higher power
is that its everything that isnt me
once i came to understand all i control is me
i was suddenly more free
its beyond me
its funny how things work out

It's Beyond Words
03:54
|
|||
|
its hypnotic, the truth
some things are beyond words, its true
we can still communicate ideas, me and you
but theres a limit to how much we can process
its about peak intellect and i swear that this isnt nonsense
its pretty simple, and its not bizarre
there are truths bigger than we are
powers greater, beyond imagination
epic realities beyond any indication
everywhere, oh they're everywhere you see
things bigger than we are, you and me
before you imply these words are idiotic
spend a moment pondering the big bang beat, its hypnotic
its hypnotic, the truth

hook it cut it catch it hold it release
hook it cut it catch it hold it repeat
oh anything outside of this moment is imagination
i was standing in my kitchen
i was pondering this
and i thought to myself
lets try mindfulness
it began with being mindful that moment in the kitchen
and it continued with my first attempt at meditation
i saw a spark and heard a voice, no fabrication
anything outside this moment is imagination
because thats what came next, the mantra in my mind
and i suddenly became less twisted up inside
it helped me understand the moment i was in
give it away, give the moment away
hook it cut it catch it hold it release
hook it cut it catch it hold it repeat
give the moment away if you want to keep it
hook it cut it catch it hold it then release it
and you'll always have space for the next one
and they're all so perfect its like each one is the best one
hook it cut it catch it hold it release
hook it cut it catch it hold it repeat

Big Dumb Fun
03:57
|
|||
|
oh its heartfelt, it holds meaning and is occasionally profound
wrapped all up in electronic industrial rock sounds
but listen up, because i dont want you to lose the thread, the thread
its just outrageous fun i have inside my head
oh its big dumb fun
at the end of the day
its big dumb fun
and i wouldnt have it any other way
i couldnt tell you how much i laugh, putting these tracks together
and the more fun i have, i do it better and better and better
and i add the heys and whoas and it gives me a massive smile
i wouldnt trade it out with you, missed that transition by a mile
oh its big dumb fun
at the end of the day
its big dumb fun
and i wouldnt have it any other way
its a vehicle for self expression, but its also big dumb fun
its a spiritual mission, and its also big dumb fun

God vs. Schism
04:19
|
|||
|
the sigil, the plus and zero
oh, its god vs schism and its not even real
but it helped me rock to the rhythm, so break out those sigils
are you ready for the final battle between schism and god
are you ready to transition to the universe beyond
oh, its god vs schism
the ultimate matchup
and when the two come to meet at the end of time
you had better back it up
its the ultimate juxtaposition
and its since become my mission
to understand just what it means
and if the concept is more than it seems
but i think its unity and separation
the idea that we're just one big amalgamation
and theres a space where spirit needs to be
we can fill those spaces whoa, with unity
oh, its god vs schism and its not even real
but it helps me rock to the rhythm, so break out those sigils

Bridges Between

we're all bridges between, can you hear now what i mean?
this project hasnt changed since its inception
it hasnt even changed since its conception
its bridges between all the way through and through
and its all because i want to share these thoughts with you
bridges between is old enough to drink but doesnt
i should have expressed myself like this in my teens and 20s
i was too afraid of failure and people finding out the things i thought of
but today i swear that singing out my feelings is something that i love
this project hasnt changed since its inception
it hasnt even changed since its conception
its bridges between all the way through and through
and its all because i want to share these thoughts with you
i want to share my thoughts and feelings
i want to share ideas and meanings
i want to express my experiences
i want someone to understand these theories, and what they mean to me
