We don't have to wonder why we are & we don't have to worry anymore So never-mind these stories, let's listen to what's here & let go of the hurry, breathing mindfully Why this is so familiar, like a rediscovery Though having so much fun in our confusion Dream in the living death But why not wake to this illusion, and untie your knot Hallelujah I am here, singing to the day & I am here, dancing among the dead Waiting to awaken from the daze of life's illusion We don't have to believe in these thoughts & we can choose to relieve the tensions For why not re-cognize the essential self & reconcile to forgive the mental hell Seeking for some kind of meaning While I cannot speak without losing What I wish to communicate So I let it be as it will be & I free this life of the confines of my mind Good morning – what are you creating today? Something as simple as a smile? Or convoluted as denial, of the truth inside of you Good mourning is when I wake anew & leave yesterday beneath my feet

I choose to forgive the past that has passed and the future is free to be & I have been discovering The present moment is you & me The only thing here to be - right here May all sentient beings Walk their own path in security May all sentient beings feel The love of this moment, limitlessly May all sentient beings know the peace within the hearts is the only Truth worth focusing on Wherever you go Wherever you roam Wherever you wander Wonder in flow Wherever you Be Be Home

Ore Am I 03:17
I am the Earth The ground beneath your feet The soil & the seed Herb & fruit of influence Ore, Am I The stones of archetype The chrysalis of Knowledge Of the growing impermanence Granite; the hold of ancient mystery & Identity that we cling firmly to Am I the molten flame Fueling the core of this grand engine Eyes of stars; ears of now Listening deeply to the bleeding heart All around I am here on your side Dive into your center Purify the mind; open your heart I am the storm Our fury of desiccation Necessary cleansing of our own creation What have I done? I will forgive After all the past has passed And the future is free I am the calm When all is said and done & Pleasure Island has Sunken once again I am the Ocean still Rising thoughts of waving egos Dreaming of the eternal crest Only to crash Ride back into the essence Of the unknowable given I am the Witness The nest of all that is The Becoming of the Being The power of this peace Breathe into it Exhale the dreams Ground into the infinite surrendering Om Shakti Om Illuminating sat nam Om Shanti Om Take me home To Be the Peace Unveiling the will Allowing it to unfold As I AUM

When the words cease to entertain the mind's thinking What then will we do, or anchor our attention to? What's inside these eyes? Dancing inner chi masquerading as outer dreams Still in the depths of the “I” of now No thing to see Know “I” in me Still to breathe & be Wu wei – all ways What is will be I don't need to say anything I just like to sing La Ti Da - Wu Wei Nothing to convey today No thing to Be Just “me” Being

Sol.Re 02:44
I am all I am & I feel all that is here I will pave the road back home Where I am Love I sing in humble, holy surrendering I see witnessing Of All I Am All I am is all I know In this flow I am Home

Start Again 04:29
I don't wanna wish I had started long ago I'm not going to wish I hadn't wasted so much time As I attempt to keep my desires Held in this momentary pleasure forever I know that cannot Be But I thought I knew better As I smile at myself from thousands of years ago I smile at the One blinded from above I laugh when I remember of the Dreamer & I cry when I realize that's me

You know that you are here to shine in your Truth So how long will you refuse to face it? It's a matter of your choosing to devote every step In reverence of the purpose of your own creation You've always known that you'd accept the calling & now's the time for you to embrace it Don't worry about the timing, soon enough we'll believe In the puzzle unfolding flawlessly as “you & me” I can Be – the one to – Remind Myself That I know I am you in a different space suit Still I see holy lines, and I can't seem to Transcend the game of time – not while fearing The shadows of my life – disappear when I face them Or are you awaiting breakdown – as your motive To focus on your own care and healing Prepare to face your limits - and choose to breakthrough 'Cause Now is the only time we have to be “me / you” I can Be – the one to – Remind Myself I Am One – including you Of Thy Divine – alluding me We are one kind of One Mind In One Heart I am the Dreams of Ego Mind Here dreaming of bodies - dividing wrong from right & I will awaken the mind to the Self I'm here to save No One but accept myself Who's to say we're not … of one mind in different times … an island of awareness … the empty ocean of an Atom ..aren't just dreaming of bodies [pCH] Living – Feeling – Fearing – Loving [xCH] & When the moment comes will we echo the call? We awaken to the Self Of Nothing or stay asleep to everything Feeling – Fear and – Love and – Breaking Through Be Always Present Don't look back Know now Witnessing peacefully As our Dreams Embody Who's to say we're not … … the sun embodied … microscopic thought forms … the engine of an alien ..that the mind isn't but a mirror Of the One Truth beyond our matters … we aren't dreaming of something from – no - thing

I just want to Be The peace I know & I know I must let go of the fear I hold 'cause it's getting old I believe I can be All I dream for it seems I already Am we already are When we choose to Focus on the inner chi of what we hear & what we seek We will be intimately within the hearing now to be still somehow At the edge of our comfort zone we free the Flow to be In The Zone & We can Choose to breakthrough ^again & again again & again I just want to let go & Be Home Yet I still want to hold The Peace I've known The breathing OM again & again on and on on & OM

about

An ode to the Sun ~ SoLaTi is a conceptual album loosely depicting the daily trajectory of Sunrise to Sunset (insert any existential metaphors you see fit :P)
A bright and uplifting addition to your Summer Soundtrack!

This album has been many years in the making, as the writing process started when I was playing my ukulele at Brighton Center's mobile Farm Market that I was managing back in 2017.
The first single "Sol.Re" released in October 2019, followed by the album being broken up into 3 preliminary EP releases ~ the more extroverted, heavier hitting songs ("SoLa" - Summer 2020) and the more meditative introverted pieces ("LaTi" - Spring '21), plus the 3-part suite that concludes the album ("Awake to Dream" - Summer '22), which also included the final song of the collection to be publicly released: "Awake to Dream Part One: Dreams Embody."


"SoLaTi" isn't just a compilation of the previously released, remastered songs - almost every track contains additional elements, not the least of which include the presence of the Live Rhythm Section (ie the guys I perform with: Ryan Wells and Kurtis Unthank), giving a few tunes more of a full-band arrangement.

~~~

A huge thanks to all of the talented musicians who added their unique voice to the arrangement of this album!! & to those who have been such a big support to the seanti-aeris project; you know who you are ;) !!
