ABOUT THIS SONG How long has it been? How long have you kept turning away from the magnificent one calling you? How long have you played like you you were asleep? When I was a boy, I used to play a game with my parents. When they came home and I was supposed to be in bed, I usually was not...cats away, mice will play kind of thing...I would hear them coming in and rush to my bed and act like I was asleep. My step father would stand over me and listen to my breathing...then we would say to my Mother, "he's awake"...dang! busted! Innocent, yes...but I was faking it. It is really hard to fake the Cosmos. Our elaborate schemes only truly serve to fool ourselves. Over and over. And, honestly, there is nothing wrong with that. For lifetime after lifetime, we have danced between waking up and fooling ourselves. Little by little we have spiraled towards this pivotal lifetime when, in a Celestial decree of tough love, the whole of humanity had the light turned on. Everybody out of bed...Now! This song in G has an ancient melody motif in it, the invasive minor pentatonic scale that just invades the heart area and forces one to remember...something. And, often that is enough to stir the pot and move the precious one towards that waking up moment. For so long we have faked it, dancing around the powerful and truthful expression of us...waiting to be rescued, waiting to be seen. The paradox was, that until we took that step to be seen, we would not be seen....no matter how much we wanted it to be otherwise. This Universe is not a hand out. It has invited the best of the Cosmos, you and me, to show up here and forget everything about who you are. Then the real games begin. You, oh mighty one, have to remember who you are, remember what you have forgotten by virtue of your choice to enter. Talk about Celestial entertainment...and yes, you have done it so many times...just like all of us. So, wake up...and let's finally experience and enjoy this wonderland consciously, all of us at the same time...imagine that as you listen to this eight minute song over and over. Each listen triggers a deeper awakening. Remember...wake up little one...remember...wake up, master...wake up. |

SONG LYRICS: WAKE UP (previously released on the cd, Wake Up) Wake up You have been sleeping Waiting For Light to fall Longing For something better Slaving To have it all Did you listen to your heart? It beckoned time and time again And did you hear Your Essence call? As you stand out in the field Arms reaching for the sun In an endless moment Surrender And have it all Wake up You have been sleeping Dreaming Your time away Fearful Of the movement Clinging To yesterday Have you listened to your heart? It beckons time and time again Did you hear your Essence call? As you stand out in the field Arms are reaching for the sun In an endless moment Surrender And have it all Ahh…. Wake up You have been sleeping Open Those willing eyes Heaven Lies within you No more Compromise Won’t you listen to your heart It beckons time and time again Won’t you hear Your Essence call? Go and stand out in the field Reach up toward the sun In an endless moment Surrender And have it all Wake up, wake up…. © 1995. Music for Every Soul. All Rights Reserved. |
