The Return 05:10
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace Where there is hatred let me sow love Where there is injury, pardon Where there is doubt, faith Where there is despair, hope Where there is darkness, light Where there is sadness, joy Oh Divine Master Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console To be understood as to understand To be loved as to love It is in giving that we receive It is in pardoning that we are pardoned It is in dying that we are born Into Eternal Life Om Gum Ganapataye Namaha (Mantra meaning: salutations to the remover of obstacles)

Forever Free 03:53
You are forever pure You are forever true And the dream of this world can never touch you So give up your attachments Give up your confusion And fly to that space that's beyond all illusion Om Tare Tuttare Ture Soham (3x) Om Ture Soham (2x) You are a little star So dear to me you are I'll never give up hope I'll never let you go You're the pupil in my eye You're my flesh and you’re my blood We will never be apart You're forever in my heart In my heart my flesh and blood In my heart never apart You are a little star Twinkle little star When I sing this lullaby I can feel you closer by For the very first time in my life I can be free It feels so real to be free from this dream This dream this dream forever free This dream this dream nothing's real Om Tare Tuttare Ture Soham (3x) Om Tare Ture Soham (2x) (Mantra meaning: I prostrate to the Liberator, Mother of all the Victorious Ones)

Spend my days with a woman unkind Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine Made up my mind, make a new start Goin' to California with an achin' in my heart Someone told me there's a girl out there With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair Took my chances on a big jet-plane Never let 'em tell ya that they're aw-ooh-all the same Hoh, the sea was red and the sky was grey I wonder how tomorrow could ever follow today-hee Mountains and the canyons start to tremble and shake The children of the sun begin to awake It seems that the wrath of the gods got a punch on the nose And it's startin' to flow, I think I might be sinkin' Throw me a line, if I reach it in time Meet you up there where the path runs straight and high Find a queen without a king They say she plays guitar and cries and sings, la-la-la-la Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn Tryin' to find a woman who's never, never, never been born Standin' on a hill in the mountain of dreams Tellin' myself it's not as hard, hard, hard as it seems

Climbing up on Solsbury Hill I could see the city light Wind was blowing, time stood still Eagle flew out of the night He was something to observe Came in close, I heard a voice Standing stretching every nerve Had to listen had no choice I did not believe the information (I) just had to trust imagination My heart going boom boom boom "Son, " he said "Grab your things, I've come to take you home" To keep in silence I resigned My friends would think I was a nut Turning water into wine Open doors would soon be shut So I went from day to day Though my life was in a rut 'Til I thought of what I'd say Which connection I should cut I was feeling part of the scenery I walked right out of the machinery My heart going boom boom boom "Hey" he said "Grab your things, I've come to take you home" When illusion spin her net I'm never where I want to be And liberty she pirouette When I think that I am free Watched by empty silhouettes Who close their eyes but still can see No one taught them etiquette I will show another me Today I don't need a replacement I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant My heart going boom boom boom "Hey" I said "You can keep my things, they've come to take me home" ---------------------------------------------------- I'm Coming Home Asatoma Sad-Gamaya Tamaso Maa Jyotir-Gamaya Mrytyor-Maa Amritam Gamaya (Mantra meaning: From ignorance lead me to truth; From darkness, lead me to light; From death, lead me to immortality) Om Shanti (meaning: peace)

Biko 03:57
September '77 Port Elizabeth weather fine It was business as usual In police room 619 Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko When I try to sleep at night I can only dream in red The outside world is black and white With only one color dead Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja The man is dead You can blow out a candle But you can't blow out a fire Once the flames begin to catch The wind will blow it higher Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja The man is dead And the eyes of the world are Watching now Watching now

I Am 08:50
I am just a little bee Yet I am the hive I am just a light of a candle Yet I am the blaze I am just a leaf of a tree Yet I am the forest I am just a drop of water Yet I am the sea I see you in the bee and in the fire I see you in the tree and in the water You are my guide, my light, my path, my destiny I am a snowflake Yet I am a glacier I am a grain of sand Yet I am the desert I am just a little stone Yet I am a mountain, a mighty mountain I see you in the ice and in the sand I see you in the sky and in the land You are my guide, my light, my path, my destiny I'm always there by your side I'm everywhere at your side I'm always there in your I I I am there I am I am a blood cell Yet I am the flow I am a color, any color Yet I am a rainbow, a rainbow I am a particle, invisible Yet I am the stars, all the stars I see here and there and all around me I feel you everywhere you are within me You are my guide, my light, my path, my destiny I'm always there by your side I'm everywhere at your side I'm always there in your I I I am there by your side always with you I am I am here and there and everywhere you are I am, I am, I am, I am I am here and everywhere you are

about

After 2 years of turmoil both inner and outer, I offer this album as a return to some sort of "normalcy". These songs inspired me to keep the faith in what is good and just. The Return is a journey back to myself wiser, stronger, and happier. It is an invitation to enjoy what is rightfully ours, and return to our essential nature as human, sovereign beings.
