If I lose myself again I will not break I will not bend Or act like it's a tragedy because we're all lost and we all need Strength to guide us to the light Love to heal the dark inside Hearts to show us we all bleed Hands to feel the energy We're awakening We're awakening When I find myself again free of pain and free of sin Fully aware, at peace, complete One with God eternally If I die before I wake I pray the lord my soul to take But I will not sleep forever until I reach the light The light, the light The source of all creation The light, the light, the light The source of all creation

You've been stuck in your head You've been looking for a way out You say your crazy but you don't know how you got to be And you remember how you used to be so inspired Now it's been so hard to wake up You say you wanna give up You say you're tired Stop right now, stop right now Turn on your indigo You've been feeling restless Been keeping up your defenses You say you're scared that you've become your own worst enemy And you think back to how you used to be so fearless But now you feel your fear is endless You say you just don't understand this You say you're done Stop right now, stop right now Turn on your indigo Stop right now, stop right now Turn on your indigo You've been hangin' onto somethin' If you wanna set it free Sometimes you gotta close your eyes to see Stop right now, stop right now Turn on your indigo Stop right now, stop right now Turn on your indigo Stop right now you don't know what you're sayin' Look around, clear your head and forget what you think you know Turn on your indigo You don't know how you got here but you gotta work it out Take a breath and forget what you think you know Turn on your indigo Stop right now, stop right now

The energy bring relief Yeah the energy's what's keepin' me awake at night The energy created life We come from the stars that light up the sky All across the universe is space not time So what came first? If the sun is a star It's gonna burn out some day Just like we all will burn out But if we know who we are We're not gonna fade away Put your hands together and rise above Let's take a stand for love We are slaves unto our minds Let's trust our hearts and leave our fears behind Life is nothing but a dream You control your destiny If the sun is a star It's gonna burn out some day Just like we all will burn out But if we know who we are We're not gonna fade away My sun the star (x4) If the sun is a star It's gonna burn out some day Just like we all will burn out But if we know who we are We're not gonna fade away My sun the star (x4)

This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine It starts today The time is now Be yourself Don't follow Guide Right now Not tomorrow 'Cause anything is possible today Open your heart Free your mind One day you'll realize you're out of time So start today Don't be afraid To find your way before it's too late Mother Mary came to me in my sleep She said do not be afraid to love Mother Mary came to me in a dream She said a light is shining down from above Mother Mary Find the light Let it shine Your only enemy is inside So love yourself and everyone else Let go of your ego and reach your higher self Mother Mary came to me in my sleep She said do not be afraid to love Mother Mary came to me in a dream She said a light is shining down from above Mother Mary We must give We must give to receive We must give We must give to receive We must give We must give to receive

Outside I hear the sound of an airplane High above the ground Somehow it sounds the same As my thoughts racing I can't stop chasing you Inside this empty house I hear the silence I stare at the clock and wonder where the time went Now I'm thirty two and I'm still chasing you The sweet kiss of happiness Of peace within my heart The eternal bliss of happiness Of peace within my heart Outside the sun peaks out over the horizon Inside I'm breaking down Inside I'm slowly dying I can't hide the truth I can't find you The sunrise brings the dawn of a new day Maybe you're in my mind and I just like the chase I've searched far and wide I still can't find you The sweet kiss of happiness Of peace within my heart The eternal bliss of happiness Of peace within my heart Maybe we need less attitude More gratitude Maybe a little less hatefulness More gratefulness Less closed minds And more sunshine To feel the sweet kiss of happiness Of peace within my heart The eternal bliss of happiness Of peace within my heart The sacred gift of happiness Of peace within my heart

Thirty three years have passed this week Just like the thirty three tries it took for me to get it right Thirty three months ago I wasn't me Just like the thirty three girls I thought were all I needed Thirty three come guide me Take me to where I need to be Thirty three years ago this week I was born into the light to get it right Thirty three always finds me when I'm weak And it took thirty three lives to discover that all I need was Thirty three to guide me To take me to where I need to be Thirty three now I see You take me to where I need to be You found me Now I see we're all looking for something we can never find 'Cause you found me Now I see we're all born from the same source into the light Into the light Thirty three used to be just a number to me But now I'm awake and completely aware of the meaning No matter what path you take You learn from every mistake you make And now that I'm thirty three I know I'm exactly where I need to be Thirty three come guide me Take me to where I need to be Thirty three now I see You take me to where I need to be

about

Michael Chorvat Santa Cruz, California

I am but a muse of the music. My voice sings from my heart. My hands play guitar from my soul. My songs find their way from the divine into my mind. A miracle in every word. Poetry in every part. I am light in the dark.
