lyrics

I was on my own
Falling through the sky
Down into the ocean
I try , I lie

No more swimming motions.
No more survival.
Time has come to end it.
Let me be with You.

I can croon too
Bubbles out my mouth
I’m a piscean fish with a
Star in my south
Sacral chamber
I live with the danger,
Life on a knife edge
I nudge my fader
Phase in
A body built with sin
And nobody acknowledging
That sin is still a thing
It’s all cool,
Drinking soda by the pool
Sugar candy in their stool
Faces like a multi-tool
I evolved
I didn’t wanna stay
I looked in the mirror saying
Gotta be a higher way
I let go, like my dependence on eyesight
Let go, like my dad teaching me how to ride a bike
My human form
Bubbles out me at dawn
I speak the wordless language of the blue ones, unborn
In the Spirit world
And I take it with me
You see me in the gym but yeah,
Do you really?
My body is a veil,
The soul ship has a sail
Liquid lifeforms have shells
We emerge out our cells
Splutter into existence
On a painted highway
Splashes everywhere,
With no care
(My way)
Lean in to the motion
You call it chaos
Lifeforms around me
Chaos is way off
Infinity of order
Divine delightful
Meant to be here
Third-eye insightful
Life time, just a flash in the sky
I don’t hold on and I don’t ask why
Life time, just a flash in the sky
I won’t hold on and I won’t ask why

PRAYER (WHALE)
PRAYER (AFGHANISTAN)

O Merciful God,
Shower us with Your Mercy
Unite us, so that under the celestial sky of your generosity and gentle grace
We are united, in solidarity, and in sincere faith harmoniously living with one another.
 
O Merciful God,
Grant comfort and peace to the people of Afghanistan –
They desire unity, love, equality, and solidarity.
They detest war and its destruction.
 
O most Merciful God
Aid our nation in this battle,
This battle of light against ignorance and darkness.
 
O generously Merciful God
Provide us succor
So that in the embrace of your mercy
We can reach our dreams
 
That we may aid our people and nation
That we may be united and prevent those wishing to preclude
Harmony, peace, and progress among us.
 
O merciful Lord
Prevent the schemes of the oppressors and defeat them.
 
O merciful God
Cast out from among us the oppressors!
Grant us your generous aid
So that with a united front – as sisters and brothers –
We stand against the unjust oppressor and save our country.
 
O God of the heavens and earth!
Whatsoever we ask and desire we request from your limitless mercy and blessings.
 
Help us and protect us
 
Amen, O Lord of the worlds.
