Lyrics Hmm, you offer new certainty An intertwined fate laminated by will A little unfree to this physical fiend But I guess where there's silence.... It's soul rules for feed So, we all have a hammer, Just like Thor Where Will is that thunderous power Perpetual proof to all souls who then hear Not the blinkered approach... Not uncontrolled, Not thrown from universe to new 'verse in fear So what if this Will allows us to pick One universe from all & here our fate will stick In the macrocosm it all

This song is in demo mode and is dedicated to the people of Nepal and also artist BeSinger for unintentionally reminding me to get creative about them more I listened to this song by BeSinger ... https://soundcloud.com/andreas-besinger/sea_of_clouds_mer_de_glace_clouds_upon_the_hill ... and was sent off down memory lane with my own Sea of Clouds memories from my past.

For NB Nikita possible collab Idea is to alternate singing the lines referring to each of our artist names Note: Lyrics are built on our artist names written down the side. For that reason sense is found in each line but possibly not so much in the lyrics as a whole. I'm cool with that... The alternating vocals I think will work best in unison towards the end of phrases Tempo of 71 BPM tapped out from NB Nikita first upload

Below was yesterday.... I'd like to take this opportunity to leave those words exactly as they are until things and people start changing! FUCK all the liers including the ones lying to themselves, too ignorant and lazy to find out about the REAL WORLD! Confirmation bias is very real. It's a weakness in you if you fall for it. So go and make yourself stronger if you believe the bullshit getting shouted by the SITH at the moment... Well... Pretty angry today after that shit show we all watched in

File Updated: Two acoustic guitars added (feeler runs so there's mistakes🤸‍♀️Program that AI🖕).... One mostly single string lead and the other a picked rhythm. Extended the progression for a dancey end... Note-The idea of a 23 second phrase is born from my boss pedal maxing out at 22990ms... so that was the longest possible loop I could do with it. To do that essily I needed to work out the bpm to fill that 23 seconds. This was the original 23
