Hidden Messages in Lyrics...

Lately, I find solace in lyrics and been having those Oprah “ah moments” when I have been listing to music during the course of my day. There are so many lyrics out there that are speaking to me. As an “earthbound child” who wished that she grew up during the era of “peace & love”, but didn’t, instead I grew up with a pretty regular 80’s childhood. I took those ideas from that generation and began to look at them in a new light. As I grow on this path, the guiding principles are universal, but they tend to be told in many different contexts. I tend to find my own path on this kundalini awakening process in my own unique way, kind of like a climber up a mountain, but doing it sideways. I’m on craic, This is going to be one far out tangent that I’m on right now with the lyrics, oh well, here’s my list, there’s no rhyme nor reason to this & I can’t say that it will ever be complete cos the moment is always changing….

Don't let it get the better of you
What could be better than now
Life's not about what's better than”

“You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want

“You say you want a revolution
Well, you know We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well, you know We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be all right?
All right, all right”

~The Beatles

Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be”

'Cause none of them can stop the time.”

Gotta keep those lovin' good vibrations a-happenin' with her

Switch on your electric light”

And may your song always be sung”

“Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.”

Why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die”

“Give me love
Give me love
Give me peace on earth
Give me light
Give me life
Keep me free from birth
Give me hope
Help me cope, with this heavy load
Trying to, touch and reach you with,
Heart and soul”

~George Harrison

“Well I'm on my way
I don't know where I'm going
I'm on my way I'm taking my time”
