The instruments for these songs were recording back in 2019 when recording for 'The New Testament,' 3 Song EP took place. A few years later long time singer Ken Brown agreed to write and record the vocals and also do the art work. We are so glad these songs are seeing the light of day!
lyrics
Colors of the deep
Drifting across the fluid planes lost in the sea of tranquility
Arose twin serpents ensnaring my legs, climbing hungry and fast
Made of light they encircled my spine spiraling up from within
Astral lights of color emerged as through me they passed
From my head white light exploded in all directions,
As the serpents collided in my mind giving sight
The heat from the colors traveled throughout me
First elation and bliss, then the darkness of night
I want to feel, everything, I want to be, everywhere,
Welcome, Son of the Sun, I heard in my mind
Near is the shift, but your kind are still blind
With Roots of ascension, now disconnected you are
Awaken consciousness, or reset will be your mind
i awoke high above the world below,
i fell, plummeting fast and yet slow
it was an ancient world that resembled what i know,
from a time before the frozen ice and snow
In the center growing beneath me was an island full of energy
Circled by land rings and water, a city, so strange
Like a target it drew me as I prepared for the end of me
Chanting with hands raised a reverent people, await
I want to feel, everything, I want to be, everywhere,
Welcome, Son of the Sun, I heard in my mind
Near is the shift, but your kind are still blind
With roots of ascension, now disconnected you are
Awaken consciousness, or reset will be your mind
an astral field wrapped around me
geometric cube of red hue, seemingly heaven sent
delivered gently to the ground
Encircled by ancient awakened who looked on in lament
colors of the deep (x6)
Welcome, Son of the Sun, I heard in my mind
Near is the shift, but your kind are still blind
With Roots of ascension, now disconnected you are
Awaken consciousness, or reset will be your mind
colors of the deep
