Dance 04:30
Lyrics by Mark Medley I don't fear Armageddon, cuz I know it happens each day The man that I am when I go to sleep, is not the same man who awakes And it happens on a cellular level, it's happening to me right now Parts of me die as new parts get born, look at how Shiva moves Each night I sleep is a tiny death And each breath I breathe could be my last breath But I need my rest to continue this quest Glad to find out that it's not a test.... Chorus: It's a dance Somebody built up a fire, somebody struck up a drum And God couldn't help but start dancing, And that is where we all come from I didn't understand it, until I overstood The God that you get is the God you deserve And you deserve to be happy, you deserve the best You keep on running, but you need some rest You keep competing, but it's not a test..... Chorus

Approach 03:02
I was floatin' in a tiny boat, all alone in the middle of the sea Then I was blinded by a beautiful light and it was you and you were looking at me At first it escaped my detection, but that light was my reflection Upon further introspection the light came alive at our intersection I knew right there and then that I'd have to surrender Lyrics by Mark Medley To my highest consciousness and not to the pretender To approach the Goddess I must first clear a pathway To become the sun I need her power in my rays Chorus: You are the Goddess, the Goddess is in you A living temple that each day is made new My worship's simple and your blessings come through When every thought and everything that I do is a devotion to you I was swimming in an ocean of bliss and that ocean swam in me I was drinking from the fountain of youth in a cup of royalty She was the nectar to balance the bitter They brought her gifts, but their clothes never fit her So she returned them after transforming their make-up And then she whispered quietly for me to wake up And that was how I found my head bowed at her feet Before I rose to take my place next to her seat

Kinfolk 05:26
Lyrics by Mark Medley Walking through the forest to a chorus of the leaves Nothing impossible before us as far as any eye can see The dark horizon comes to life providing me some clarity If the direction of the wind is blown' in our favor let's get goin' Chorus: I'll come home to my kinfolk, I'll come home to mine I'll come home to my kinfolk, with a bottle of good communion wine I'll come home to my kinfolk, I'll come home to mine I'll come home to my kinfolk, hear me sending a message on down the line Walked through the door into a record store and fell in love And I been since then standing in it, it's been waking me up And I love every single person on this beautiful Earth, even if I've never seen your face And I've been waiting for a planet full of people like you and I'm ecstatically happy that the waiting is through Chorus: I'll come home to my kinfolk, I'll come home to mine I'll come home to my kinfolk, with a bottle of good communion wine I'll come home to my kinfolk, I'll come home to mine I'll come home to my kinfolk, hear me sending a message on down the line

The Knot 03:12

Lyrics by Mark and Vanice Medley After a few years hiding from our fears we embraced them all As we got to know them, they began to show us how to scale the wall Since it never existed, we don't have to climb it and there's no way to fall Puttin' one foot forward, feel the earth support it, why'd we ever stall Chorus: I'm puttin' everything I can be into our matrimony I'm devoting every single cell of me And I do it happily We looked at the darkness and saw that it was dancing with its love, the light They came together to hold each other, it never was a fight As we looked closer they became familiar, it was you and I And we kept dancing to the music's movement through each day and night Chorus: I'm puttin' everything I can be into our matrimony I'm devoting every single cell of me And I do it happily
