For all the Soul Shakers



The late great baseball manager Yogi Bera was a true wordsmith. He once said  "90% of baseball is mental the other half is physical." The same could be said for music. Here are the lyrics to one of our songs written by Mikey McCrory. This song is an ode to the single life and the discovery that there is so much more to life than the thought of pursuit. We spend much of our lives pursuing. goals, desires, possessions, or a companion. Its easy to overlook the wealth of gifts we already posses. 

This is...

FOR ALL THE SOUL SHAKERS    


This is for all the soul achin', love taken heart breakers, 
bouncing in and out relations in a million situations, 
those lost broken pieces, from all of your teasin, 
your just losing your meaning time to do some heart retreving

Asking who are you

The grass is always greener on the other side, 
I dont mean to sound demeaning but that aint no place to hide, 
so I’ll be taken what I’m givin and I’m grateful for what I got, 
focused for al its worth on this one and only shot

To discover, just who you are, as you uncover your truth

delve down in yourself, deep breaths for your wealth, 
give thanks for your health, find a story to tell,  
find the light in those eyes where you've got light to give, 
don’t be standing in darkness nor trapped from within, 
confused 
learn how to use 
pereception detecting the inner-reflection 
come on and spark the fuse

Askin who are You

But whoa little darlin, there is so much to explore, 
i can hear you knocking, adventure right at your door, 

cuz we aint done, no we just begun, 
to grasp the true meaningful sum 
of it all 

You’re the grass you’re the green 
you’re the vision the scene, 
the future past present in everything! 
You’re illuminating power, spiraling dark energy, 
your laughter causes rushes of  theses endorphins, 
you’re the river you’re the ocean you’re the plunge in lake, 
you’re all that’s at stake, you’re the prison break, 
you’re the shudder, you’re the shiver that my heart makes, 
you’re the rumble you’re the tumble of the earth as it shakes

You are … a beautiful you.
