I wrote thing song at a time where I felt a mixture of hope and desperation. This song is not only a call to those that are proud to be deep, intellectual individuals but it's also a call to those that have yet to awaken the deeper, darker, more intense parts of themselves. The parts of themselves that are very important if they are ever to become whole. Before writing these lyrics, I had gotten inspired by a close friend of mine who I could always see really deep into. Although they have made it a part of their life path to show others the way to awakening, I can see within them that they themselves have not fully awakened and have yet to see the full picture, what's truly in front of them. They focus so hard on helping others, which I have always found incredible but they forget about themselves. The question really is, how much longer can you help others when you haven't even finished helping yourself? These particular feelings I have about this person come and go, they aren't consistent. However, I can tell that fully awakening is a struggle for this person and writing these lyrics was a way for me to reach out to them and not just tell them, but show them that I am here and will help them move along their path and the process towards awakening.
