lyrics

You've got to live
Like Death is standing over your left shoulder
You've got to give
Like you know you'll never get a day older
Every second but the present one
Is just a figment of your imagination
Count the ones that you'll forget
Weighed against the ones that haven't happened yet
In the balance there you may find
The motivation to stop wasting your time
When you realize
One Life is all that you get

You've got to dance
Somebody said dance like no one's looking
Better take your chance
You never know what the world is cooking
But remember as you make your way
You must leave this world as surely as you came
So take good care of it and pass it on
To the countless children who are waiting in the dawn
But don't forget that you are one of a kind
And may the seventh generation never be far from your mind
When you realize
One World is all that we get

You've got a seed
You've got a seed that you gotta sew
Don't you see?
It’s a secret that’s written down at the bottom of your Soul
It's a gift that only you can give
The very purpose and the reason that you live
If you deny it then we all lose out
We'll never know what we've gone without
But let me tell you what the world needs now
Is for every one alive to realize
One Soul one World one Life that's all that you get

It's all that you get (One Life one Soul one Planet)
It's all that you get (Whatever you do don't you take it for granted)
It's all that you get (So don't spend too long looking back)
It's all that you get (Don't dwell on the little things that you lack)

His new album "Dark Matter" is a collection of songs about the underworld journey of the soul, human interconnectedness, and the search for love and meaning in one's life. ... more
