I heard the call and made the choice to answer it To serve the all through conscious words of empowerment In return was a life worth living for I know I came here to make a change The prophets told us we'd rise to make a difference A new paradigm where truth replaces ignorance They also shared a simple and effective way To ensure we all make it there We need to ride ride ride the wings of Love The world is changing, I see it although slowly There's no use waiting for something else more holy The world we want requires active hands And more importantly open hearts And so together let's rewrite the collective agreements With truth and love as the two essential ingredients Let's do it for the children and seven generations beyond We're the ones we've been waiting for As we ride ride ride the wings of love

Stay home in the heart It's what we do now when we're all apart So stay home (stay home) in the heart Let's keep it together as this world restarts Open your heart and follow your joy What a wonderful world, it's a time to rejoice A gift that this is to have so much time Redefining ourselves for this new paradigm The change is unclear but it's definitely here If we stay in our hearts then there's nothing to fear It's testing our trust and it's testing our faith To know we're okay and we're in the right place Stay home in the heart... Everyday we had places to be Things to do and people to see But the times they have changed And we've all gone inside To be by ourselves with nowhere to hide A quarantine state is a gifted retreat Time to nurture ourselves with good food to eat, To finish a book or learn a new song Imagine a world where we all sang along So stay home in the heart...

How many tears must I cry To fill the oceans after they die The whales and the reefs sing a sad song How could we ever tell them we were wrong Mother I'm sorry your call wasn't heard This is an anthem for the Earth How many times must I get angry There's fires already raging out of control The answers have been shared very clearly Let the people of their lands play their role Mother I'm sorry your call wasn't heard The people just weren't ready From the pain that they've endured Now the children of this era Can be trusted rest assured This is an anthem for the Earth How many years must I stay grieving It's hard for me to simply take a breath When the lungs of the earth are still cut clearly Surely they know this will lead us to our death Mother I'm sorry Your call wasn't heard The people just weren't ready From the pain that they've endured Now the children of this era Can be trusted rest assured This is an anthem for the Earth

I am floating in an ocean of gratitude I'm attracting opportunities and material prosperity I am manifesting my dreams I'm creating the world I want I'm in love with life I'm in love with life I live without regret I go with the flow of this Ocean of Abundance I'm an artist bringing to life the world that lives in my heart that sings in my mind that vibrates my soul it makes me want to cry and shout with joy I'm in love with life I'm in love with life
5.
Everyday is changing, For the better No need to get anxious about bad weather Feel inside your heart now and let your truth come out Shine forth your full expression without fear nor doubt Let us be the love Let us be the love To love the world more fully it has to start within Good thing we're not destined to be who we've always been We can open up more fully, more fully than yesterday Let us become our full potential, let us open on this day Chorus Shine your heart more fully, shine it to be free Shine it like a summer day, like the open sea Shine it for the children, and a world that's pure and clean Shine it for a new day, shine it for you and me

May we see We are one family Sharing this home One world, one soul May it be We come to find peace Lay down our differences And find equality We are one, we are one Sharing the sun We are one, we are one May it come To know where we are from That we are one Sharing the sun One world, one soul One family, one home

about

We were invited to perform at Come To Life's 3rd annual "Out of a Jam", a small, intimate (and covid safe) gathering offering local artists, activists and wisdom keepers the time and space to weave meaningful dialogue with musical performances.

It was a magical evening and felt like an incredible homecoming after returning from our journey to Mexico. To perform on the beloved Mateada stage in front of our community was truly a dream, and a gift with just how rare these moments are nowadays!! Thank you to David, Adam, Syd, and Harley for being integral to making these beautiful recordings 'Come to Life'!

And if you enjoyed the recordings, you'll probably love the LIVE music videos over on our youtube page: www.youtube.com/elisaandblair
