about

This song was written during the most profound, adventurous journey I have ever been on in my life while in the jungles of Peru. Kim and I were with a group of 20 people, including some close friends, for the purpose of venturing deep into a meditative space seeking healing and insights. For almost 2 weeks, we were well taken care of by a local Peruvian staff who were some of the most caring and friendly people I have ever met. This trip was not about sight-seeing or activities, it was a time for us to simply be, meditate, rest and allow ourselves to unfold. Every other day our group would come together for sacred ceremonies filled with beautiful music and meditation. The days in between, we spent the majority of our time alone in silence.
What a gift it was to have all this time to read, reflect and write. The book I chose to read during this time was This Thing Called You by Ernest Holmes. It resonated with me deeply, giving me insights into the power we all have within us to create our own reality. It drove home the message of how empowering our choices are when we make them consciously and with intention. I connected deep within myself and realized the answers were there. The most powerful choices we can all make in our lives that will help create a better world are to choose love, peace and joy moment by moment. I was an open vessel, ready to let my creativity flow. Poetry began pouring out of my heart onto the pages of my journal.

lyrics

I wake up in the morning to sadness, Cause the world keeps on spinning in madness.
Greed and fear are very rampant, can’t stand it, It’s not working anymore.
Where’s the good, why is there so much confusion? What we need to do is drop the illusion.
Our planet can’t take much more pollution, Oh, what can one man do?

(pre-chorus)
So there’s a voice within, I know has always been, It tells me there’s a way
You gotta look inside, and let old thought-forms die, Let your goodness shine today!

(chorus)
CHOOSE LOVE, CHOOSE PEACE, CHOOSE JOY, LET GO RELEASE
ONE HEART, ONE VOICE, ONE LIGHT...............OUR SPIRIT’S FREE!

On the earth we are all part of a system, Plants and trees and all the species within them.
We are free if we can learn not to hurt them, Their home is our home too.
If we share what we have with each other, There’ll be lots of food for sisters and brothers.
Love yourself as well as one another, This world we can create!

(pre-chorus)
(chorus)
(solo)

Within our hearts we have creative expression, It comes from spirit and a little intention.
It’s the voice that feeds our deepest connection, These gifts are ours to share!
The Law of Faith is ours to use if we listen, What we do with it will be our decision.
Cultivate, create, there’s no limitation, It’s done as you believe!

(pre-chorus)
(chorus) x2

.......OUR SPIRIT’S FREE!.......OUR SPIRIT’S FREE!.......OUR SPIRIT’S FREE!
