This is a video of me performing one of my songs, ‘Break the Elitist Chains’, which I’ve shared a different version of in the past. As usual, I wrote the guitar, bass and lyrics for this song, and the drums are pre-recorded into my guitar amp.
I don’t claim to be a professional musician – I’m more of a beginner. You don’t have to like the song, but please be respectful.
Lyrics:
When the lies aren’t enough, the stakes are heightened
Try to frighten
The children of the sun who come to greet the change on the horizon
Consciousness is rising and they see that they can’t be on the top
Enlightenment they can’t stop
Though they try they don’t know why the world is leaving them behind
And they blame the madness on the poor
Keep the people distracted and train us to fight their wars
The lower class is sacrificed, the blood and the gore
How much more will we take before we break the elitist chains
Right away
Open up your mind and you will find Jah universe
Surrender to the rhymes and to the flow of spirit’s every verse
Internal magic, held inside, ready and willing to burst
Can you meet it on its level first
Discover that you’re much more than they’d have you believe
Uncover your true nature, plant that holy seed
Of awareness and carry Jah light through the dark
Through the pain and through the fear and through the hatred
And through your perceptions of all the greed
Now they blame the madness on the poor
Keep the people distracted and train us to fight their wars
The lower class is sacrificed, the blood and the gore
How much more will we take before we break the elitist chains
And see that Jah light shines
When the lies aren’t enough, the liars crave a new challenge
Imagine all the people we could save if we just stopped these games
In this day and age
The misdirection of the youth is purposeful and we are all being played
Embracing inner liberation will help you escape the constructed self
Utilization of meditation breaks perceptual barriers
And helps the illusion to melt right away now
Helps the illusion to melt right away now
Now we can remember everything that’s been lost to time
Eternal living and memory we can find
All the essential components come together to build our new society
We’ll see that it was always meant to be
The senses open up we’re introduced to the love of the most high
Awareness and understanding bloom as we all rise when we see that it’s time
When the starlight comes down, hangs around with the uninformed humanity
Innocence is introduced in every way to lower-dimensionality
Lower-dimensionality
But I can see fields of green
All of their worries don’t matter to me
And you’re invited to rediscover yourself
It’s so exciting to learn and grow away from hell
And we can make it
All of us will remember what it’s like
To enter heaven
To get there, no blood, no death, no loss of life
When the lies aren’t enough, the stakes are heightened
Try to frighten
The children of the sun who come to greet the change on the horizon
Consciousness is rising and they see that they can’t be on the top
Enlightenment they won’t stop

You have talent with a capital T, my man. :)
I'd love to see your work published on a wide array of channels. You definitely deserve a wide-spread fan-base.
I'll defnitely put some energy into making That a reality. :)
In the meantime, I'd like to ask you if you have any recordings of your GREAT work in form of higher quality and higher bit-rate than the vids that you publish now?
If you do, it'd be great becuase if you don't, I shall have to search for someone in your area with a studio good enough to record your awesome music, and that would cost money, which to me, is unpreferrable. :)
You definitely belong on Soundcloud, Itunes, Spotify and all the other popular channels that are available out there. That's for sure. :)
Once again. Thank you for posting this. It's GREAT work, and I don't use that term lightly. :)
A buddy of mine will open up an online music-store in a while. I'm quite sure he'd like to carry your stuff in that store.

You don't ha fi dread to be Rasta
(Don't ha fi dread)
This is not a dreadlocks thing
Divine Conception of the Heart, well
You don't ha fi dread to be Rasta
(Don't ha fi dread)
This is not a dreadlocks thing
Divine Conception of the Heart, well
Oh, it's a life of a levity
Lived by the fathers of our history
Uphold the anciency and prophecy
Trust in the power of the Trinity, yeah...
