Rock and Roll music that bridges the gap between old and new in a way that is true to form, but breaks boundaries.

I have been described as a mix between Prince, The Beatles, and Lenny Kravits. But if you ask me, I'm not really like anything, sometimes I'm silly, sometimes I rock hard, sometimes I write love songs. I used to think I had it all figured out, I know now I was wrong. But I will say that my music excites me more than anything else in my life, so just maybe it will excite you as well.

Story behind the song

This is sort of the theme song for the Great Awakening.  To me, everyone is sleeping right now, this life isn't full of the richness and color is should be, people's eyes are so much on themselves they don't see the big picture.  I am included in all of this, and I want nothing more, awakening.

Lyrics

I've been outta my head for so long I don't know what's up or down,
Things keep on distorting, I see nothing before me, just hear sounds,
Of all I could have noticed, if I would keep these two feet on the ground,
But my world stays in motion, with nothing moving forward, just around,

Something stirs in me, buried all too deep,
I see the solution slip through my fingers,
Spill out my mind, and I want nothing more,
Awakening

Seems like everyone's sleeping, or listening to a one note melody,
Sure, sure I could blend in, but what would spark that deeper part of me?
Why do they gaze at the naval, and just believe in everything they see?
When will they discover that people are the door and love's the key?

And in the meantime I'm so so bored,
Other people love that same old tune, I need something new,

Hey, with your permission, I think I'll start the revolution now,
And with an army of no fear, I'm gonna burn the old way to the ground
