The goal, I think, with self-reflection is to reach the point where the critique and call-to-action required to satiate the critique become one. This was written when I didn’t know that.
lyrics
Do what you do but
don’t look and don’t think of me,
I want to be left alone ‘cause
I may say things that
Sound like a prophecy but I’m a
Sinner & A Liar like anyone.
I never listen to myself or my songs
But the words are sung to all those involved
So I’m entwined in their meanings
Because they’re mine –
These chords have judgmental eyes.
Now I’ma do what I’ma do but I won’t
Get attached again to this version of myself
‘cause once I think I know it all I collapse:
I’ma Sinner & A Liar like anyone.
And if you’re afraid of being alone
It’s because you’re not free –
Take a look at your life and
Find out what’s truly inside.
The Karma Exchange. These dudes are my friends and they know, honestly, how to pump love into and through their music. The sounds they make inspire me. Thomas John Cadrin
Good Old War. Never have I ever encountered souls so able and willingly after tones molded to bring about a smile. It's constant with these gents, and they bring it even harder live. Thomas John Cadrin
