about

From the upcoming album A Whole Regeneration, which is the second prelude to The Musical Ecology of Roots Grown Deep.

lyrics

You can't put a plaster on a disease / And think that it's gonna cure the cancer that lies deep beneath your skin / Gotta eat from the garden to be free / Purify your blood from all these lies and toxins that deceive / You can't put a plaster on a disease / And think that it's gonna cure the cancer that lies deep beneath your skin / Discern the Spirit reality / Know your purpose in the universe and walk eternally / You say it's so hard to change your life / Well we say look around, grow within, change is right / Take a deeper breath / Stretch your mind to the sun(Son) / Let the light illuminate the crystal of your cells / And be aware of the fear in your heart / For at these crossroads there's no turning back from the whole new start / You say it's so hard to change your life? / Well we say grow within, there's a new light !
