Turn It Off

Turn it off and put it away
Turn it off and put it away
You're addicted to your phone and it's just not okay
Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off
Turn it off and put it away
Turn it off and put it away
You're addicted to your phone and it's just not okay
Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off
Have you ever noticed when you're out without your phone
That your mind's a little clearer, you're a little more alone?
And solitude is so important, and your phone it robs you of it
'Cause you're never really alone, cause you're always with your phone
And even when you're not staring at a screen,
it's always there behind the scenes preparing messages and memes
To keep you chasing empty dreams, to keep you setting empty scenes
To keep you trapped inside your mind
It's making you shallower all the time
It's keeping you trapped inside your mind
It's making you shallower all the time
Turn it off and put it away
Turn it off and put it away
You're addicted to your phone and it's just not okay
Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off
First thing in the morning and last thing before you sleep
Every time you feel a vibration, every time you hear a bleep
Your brain is building itself around the tracks your phone is laying down
And every pointless minute scrolling is offensive to your soul
So you splutter out excuses about convenience and uses
But in your heart you really know you're addicted to your phone
In your heart you really know you're addicted to your phone
Turn it off and put it away
Turn it off and put it away
You're addicted to your phone and it's just not okay
Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off
Everything you see has to be photographed or filmed
Mustn't miss a single moment, got to get your phone involved
And join the hoards of gormless zombies viewing the world through glaring screens
Just so you can show your friends every blooming thing you see
One day you're going to die and on your deathbed be it known
That you wasted half your precious life just staring at your phone
On your deathbed be it known
That you wasted half your precious life just staring at your phone
Turn it off and put it away
Turn it off and put it away
You're addicted to your phone and it's just not okay
Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off

Practise

You gotta practise
Practise every day
You gotta practise
Practise is the only way
All your realisations and all the thoughts you think are lame
If you don't practise you're just going to stay the same
Everybody knows the answers to the problems that they face
You say 'em out loud and you write 'em all down
Then you make the same mistakes
Knowing it isn't doing it, they're a world apart and so
You gotta take time to master the mind, stay in the heart and be in the flow.
You gotta practise
Practise every day
You gotta practise
Practise is the only way
All your realisations and all the thoughts you think are lame
If you don't practise you're just going to stay the same
Everybody feels lazy sometimes, everybody feels weak
But you keep you head up and you keep your will stong
And you keep your breath deep
'Cause every hour is magic if you use it to its full
Channeling light into your life into your work and into your soul.
You gotta practise
Practise every day
You gotta practise
Practise is the only way
All your realisations and all the thoughts you think are lame
If you don't practise you're just going to stay the same

Drop into your heart and carry on

Drop into your heart and feel yourself connected
Oh the answer is simple but effective
Drop into your heart and feel yourself protected
When you've made a big mistake, drop into your heart
Drop into your heart and carry on
When you've made a big mistake, drop into your heart
Drop into your heart and carry on
'Cause the answer is simple but effective,
Drop into your heart and feel yourself connected
Oh the answer is simple but effective
Drop into your heart and feel yourself protected

Release

Release the face
Effortless space
Unwinding flesh
Oceanic breath
Release the heart
Be what you are
Observe what is here
Ungrip ascend ascend ascend
Release the past
Ashes to ash
Return to now
Dissolve allow

You Are Free
02:41
|

|
Free from the story, free from the role
No need to carry all the past in your soul
Free from the shadow, free from the lie
Nothing to fear if there is nothing to hide
You are free
You are free
You are free
You are free
Free from the loathing, free from the shame
No one to quarrel with and no one to blame
Free from the anger, it comes and it goes
Not holding on anymore
You are free
You are free
You are free
You are free
Free from a reason, you do what you do
Nothing to answer for and nothing to prove
Free from the image, free from the game
Don't have to play anymore
You are free
You are free
You are free
You are free
Free from the burden, you've carried so long
You're not alone and you don't have to hold on
Free from believing, free from the known
Free to ask questions and free to be wrong
You are free
You are free
You are free
You are free

The Only Way Is Through
03:28
|

The only way is through
The only way is through
Stand up and meet yourself
Don't be afraid of what's true
Trying to escape what your feel
Trying to resist what is real
Trying to distract from the pain
But it comes back again what to do?
The only way is through
The only way is through
Stand up and meet yourself
Don't be afraid of what's true
Trying to deny what your fear
Trying to block out what you hear
Trying to distract from the pain
But it comes back again what to do?
The only way is through
The only way is through
Stand up and meet yourself
Don't be afraid of what's true
Back to the heart, come back to the heart
The only way is through
The only way is through
Stand up and meet yourself
Don't be afraid of what's true
Trying to escape what your feel
Trying to resist what is real
Trying to distract from the pain
But it comes back again what to do?
Going round in circles again
Waiting for the story to end
Trying to distract from the pain
But it comes back again what to do?
The only way is through
The only way is through
Stand up and meet yourself
Don't be afraid of what's true
