Where Attention Goes

Once in June Dan explained to me a rhyme that i could use
To reinforce the undivided love I promise on to you and it was simply

Where attention goes, neural firing flows and neural connection grows

So to you I dedicate my attention
In the hope that it fills you with the energy to take on this world

Where attention goes, neural firing flows and neural connection grows

There will be no energy wasted on shame
The only exchange is the fruit of integration
So we avoid rigid or chaotic frustration

Where attention goes, neural firing flows and neural connection grows

Masterpiece

Everyday’s an opportunity to create a living masterpiece
The biggest thing that hold us back is the fear of what other people think
Your most authentic self’s available to you every day and everywhere that you meet your feet
Cuz when we’re present and we’re grounded and we’re mindful
That’s when life gets really sweet

Because we’ve all got the chance to be the best versions of ourselves
And we can learn to harness all the gifts we’ve each got to express
You’re enough just because you are
And everything you need is inside of you
Your inner capabilities are absolutely extraordinary

Baby you’re a work of art
The artist is inside your heart
Your body is the canvas
And you’re mind is the paint
Once you can see the picture you can paint it for the world to see

Because we’ve all got the chance to be the best versions of ourselves
And we can learn to harness all the gifts we’ve each got to express
You’re enough just because you are
And everything you need is inside of you
Your inner capabilities are absolutely extraordinary

Baby you’re a work of art
The artist is inside your heart
Your body is the canvas
And you’re mind is the paint
So paint the picture that you want the world to see

No Guarantee

VERSE

C                                           F                   C

You can do all the drugs on God's Green Earth

C                                           F              C

Meet a purple lady, see the Multiverse

Am                                           F                 C

Travel to the darkest parts of your own mind

                       F                          G               C

But there's no guarantee you'll get back to God

VERSE

You can experience the world as a carnival

Take delight in nature and the animals

Wonder in awe at the power of it all

But it might not take you closer to God

What kind of world are we living in?

The fractured land society

The prophets failed it's plain to see

Where's the broad prosperity

Promised by their reign

And can we change without pain?

Do you ever feel these changes?

All together, going through changes

VERSE

See what freedom has given us

The market is, as stupid does

In the Economists Hour

Hard to explain

How we change without pain

Economists now, have all control

Companies bought, our very souls

In a world in a madness

Strange to be sane

Can we change without pain?

CHORUS

(Original is Capo 7th)

LYRICS:

To Make You Smile

VERSE

G                   Em

I worked for years

C               G

Trying to be

Em                     C

The woman that I know you

F#/D               G

Wanted me to be

VERSE

We were so different

You and I

We didn't always see

Eye to eye

CHORUS

C                       Em            G       F#/D                  Em 

I spent my whole life trying to get the world to laugh

 C                  Em               F#/D                     G 

I'd have given it all up, just to make you smile

I owe you much

Never forget

I'll be forever

In your debt

I prayed perhaps

That you were proud

Even though you never

Said it out loud

CHORUS

I spent my whole life trying to get the world to laugh

I'd have given it all up, just to make you smile

MIDDLE

Am                                Em             F               C

There must have been lessons that we had to learn

But whatever they were I'm not sure yet

Time and perspective will answer them all

But wish I'd known at the outset

VERSE

Wherever you are

I wish you well

  

CHORUS

I spent my whole life trying to get the world to laugh

I'd have given it all up, just to make you smile

A Hose Through Which Love Flows

INTRO

Am

Am I validated feelings

Dm

Am I compassion incarnate

E

Or the darkest of the answers

Am

Resigned to his fate

Yes am I doomed to live forever

With the free will that I chose

Or am I a hose

Through which love flows

VERSE

Am

I'm an accumulation of consciousness

Dm

A wave before the sand

Em

An amalgamation of aspects

Am

At the limit of the land 

Am

I'm growing and collecting

Dm

Where attention goes

Em

And I'm a hose

Am

Through which love flows

VERSE

I'm chaos in the making

And robust rigidity

Desperately adding layers

Trying to fashion identity

I'm refractions of the light   

An animal that knows

And I'm a hose

Through which love flows

VERSE

I'm a bundle of emotions

Each with their own name

Pretending individualism

All desperate for a frame

I'm the wheel of awareness

A whisper dressed in clothes

And I'm a hose

Through which love flows

INSTRUMENT

VERSE

I'm a preacher proud to stand up

A prosecutor who'll fall

A politician in the alley

Answering mother nature's call

I'm integrating hemispheres

The poetry and the prose

And I'm a hose

Through which love flows

VERSE

I'm the left side giving narration

And the right side reaching out

A problem-solving algorithm

Wants to know what it's about

I'm the observer and the object

The audience and the show

And I'm a hose

Through which love flows

I'm a hose through which love flows

EXTRA:

I'm a complex cacophony 

And a very simple chord

An unrepentant sinner

And a spark of the mighty Lord

I'm a part of everyone

Ready to propose

And I'm a hose

Through which love flows

LYRICS to A Hose Through Which Love Flows:

Am I validated feelings

Am I compassion incarnate?

Or the darkest of the answers

Resigned to his fate?

Yes am I doomed to live forever

With the free will that I chose?

Or am I a hose

Through which love flows?

I'm an accumulation of consciousness

A wave before the sand

An amalgamation of aspects

At the limit of the land 

I'm growing and collecting

Where attention goes

And I'm a hose

Through which love flows

I'm chaos in the making

And robust rigidity

Desperately adding layers

Trying to fashion identity

I'm refractions of the light   

An animal that knows

I'm a hose through which love flows

Capital creation you know

D#m

Until there's nothing left 

Wake up people come on now

Don't get mesmerised

By these digital barons

And their hypnotic lies

PR pollution 

Money is their goal

But you know it's nature's execution
