The path within is the path that I choose forward
The deepest workings of the mind will lift the body to new heights
The wrath within can be reimagined outwards
We take the dive and elevate - Our path to Rejuvenate

Locked In Motion

Into the void with heads held high
Locked in motion but paralyzed
We travel light with the past forsaken
Each step forward, ours for the taking
Through modern turbulence we navigate this newfound landscape
Animate the view that takes shape
With the colors of change
Regrowth and sustain
Discard absurdity to hold on
Hold all that carries weight
Into the void with heads held high
Locked in motion but paralyzed
We travel light with the past forsaken
Each step forward, ours for the taking
The folly of man is not the end
Nor are the structures on which we depend
I propose an end to our detriment
Even if that means the structures fall
I suppose if you don't get the sentiment
I propose an end to it all
Into the void with heads held high
Locked in motion but paralyzed
We travel light with the past forsaken
Each step forward, ours for the taking
Into the void with heads held high
Locked in motion but paralyzed
Even if that means the structures fall
I propose an end to it all

Within/Without
03:39

Only a heart wrenching cry catches the passerby
Not fact, figure, nor the finest phrase you can contrive
With silent passion grown against the grain
It seems the more I push, the more life pulls away
Within control, without connection
All that we grow to love, forms bonds that fade without discretion
Within, without
Uncertainty it grows
The less I doubt myself
Achieving peace, insurmountable
When mastery of mind
Means surrender of soul
And still the deeper we delve
The intricate layers we know as ourselves
Cannot define the outcome
A product of our choices,
And those of everyone else
Within control, without connection
All that we grow to love, forms bonds that fade without discretion
Within restraint, Without restriction
In all that we grow to love, our self control becomes affliction

Unconscious Unity
03:50
|

|
What you see is a morphogenetic field,
Invisible ties that think and feel
not of matter and not of light, but intentionality
Waves of the causal tide
We operate on a very narrow slice
our cultural conventions Our blinded guides
There is a spiritual obligation, a deeper quest for our salvation
The noetic enterprise, the obligation to realize
A primary function of the core of our being
The means of perceiving
It is not always scripture or passage
That defines the purpose we practice
The passage of time allows us to process the present at hand
We are all single cells of the incomplete
As we cannot glimpse the whole
As the cells of ourselves in unconscious unity, strive for something more
Simplicity applied to the ever-complex reality we're shown
As the cells of ourselves in unconscious unity, can't survive on their own
Our ability to destroy ourselves, the mirror image of the feelings we must compel
The perfect future is ours to become
As microcosms of the hope we all stem from
We are all single cells of the incomplete
As we cannot glimpse the whole
As the cells of ourselves in unconscious unity, strive for something more
Simplicity applied to the ever-complex reality we're shown
As the cells of ourselves in unconscious unity, can't survive on their own

Canvas Of Time
04:14
|

Time unfolds before us
Our paths diverge without a moment's notice
But the differences between you and I
That cannot be dissolved, can still be rectified
Pictures stretched across time
My mind's eye visualized
The canvas, ours
But the portrait is mine
For my perspective to be defined
Words just cannot describe
Despite our limits
I vow to try
Destined to live within restraint
Our deepest layers aren't conveyed through human expression
Destined to live the lives we shape
But I fear we've reached the limits of simple discussion
So show me first what it means to feel
What turns the gears, what you conceal
Show me first what it means to feel
For I'll climb mountains to perceive what's real
Pictures stretched across time
Your mind's eye visualized
The canvas, ours
But the perspective is mine
For your thoughts to be realized
Words just cannot describe
Despite our limits
I vow to try
Although we've arrived at the furthest that we can see
Don't let this be the furthest that we can reach
Pictures stretched across time
Our minds eye unified
The canvas, ours
And the portrait revised
For our thoughts to be realized
Words just cannot describe
With eyes locked on the future
I vow to try
let's show ourselves what it means to feel
With our deepest discrepancies revealed
Show me first what it means to feel
For I'll climb mountains to perceive what's real
The limits of language and human expression
Do not define the beauty of connection
Although we've arrived at the furthest that we can see
We're still so far from the furthest that we can reach

Seeds of Hope
03:32

Walk upon the common ground between ourselves and existence
To create a deep rooted foundation
Intrinsic resonance that frees us from isolation
For the first time in history
We're not bound by distance or born to disagree
Use the momentum of our connection
An outward action through introspection
Bring to life a common ground seeded with the hope We've found
Grow through the human norm
Break the laws of our resistance
Bring to life your inner sound
Without restriction, speak aloud
Grow through our dispositions
Bridge the gap between ourselves and existence
We bridge the gap between ourselves
Walk upon the common ground
Tread mindfully but don't look down
Bring to life your inner sound
Without restriction, speak aloud
The fear of change is a rush that we long for
Compassion means action and that's what we stand for
Bring to life a common ground seeded with the hope We've found
Grow through the human norm
Break the laws of our resistance
Bring to life your inner sound
Without restriction, speak aloud
Grow through our dispositions
Bridge the gap between ourselves and existence
For the first time in history
We're not bound by distance or born to disagree
Use the momentum of our connection
An outward action through introspection
Walk upon the common ground
Tread mindfully but don't look down
The fear of change is a rush that we long for
Compassion means action and that's what we stand for
Bring to life a common ground seeded with the hope We've found
Grow through the human norm
Break the laws of our resistance
Bring to life your inner sound
Without restriction, speak aloud
Grow through our dispositions
Bridge the gap between ourselves and existence

Chirality

Evolution idealized
We are the universe personified
Yet our potential has long outpaced our actions
We have to fill the void in our hearts
The gaps in our systems that tear us apart
Or nature will fill the cracks in the pavement
As all creation turns to dust
In pursuit of all we know we can be
Compassion combined with curiosity
We are creation, destruction, and apathy
Embodied in one
Evolution idealized
We are the universe personified
Yet nature still fills the cracks in the pavement
And ideas turn to rust

Visible Light
03:28
|
|||
|
Just take my hand, you say, it's real
As if skin on skin could help me heal
I've fought past the front, where love can be expressed through touch
Just as we only feel the heart and lungs
When the inner ache becomes too much
So does the mind
I know my depths where pain resides
Visible light won't guide me home
Through detachment beyond reaction
But a fraction of all I've come to be
Remains perceivable
With senses set for survival
I've grown deaf to instinct's call
And with thoughts alone built my resolve
Visible light seldom guides the way back home
Nor does it paint the spectrum I've become
Self redefined
In darkness my wavelengths align
Just as we only use the throat and tongue, far past the point of suffering too much
So does the mind
In silence depth is amplified
My sight refracted beyond repair
Within is my home
So take the dive and meet me there
Visible Light seldom guides the way back home
Nor does it reach the places I've needed to express the most
Visible light seldom guides the way back home
Nor does it carry the breadth of the spectrum I have become
The path within is the path that I walk forward
The deepest workings of the mind, have shown their beauty in disguise
The wrath within has been reimagined outwards
We took the dive, now here we shape, our path to Rejuvenate
