Returning From The Haze

(Awuah-Mainoo Gabriel)

Have you ever been away from home, feeling you left the worse situation for the best? This piece is centered around a black brother who leaves the shores of Africa to go till snow. At the melting of snow he’s drowned and finally brought back to start from the scratch elsewhere. This composition is the hope for those who do not believe in the possibility of making it in their homeland and as well a remedy for the repatriated.

I You going too fast to nowhere a destination our land has not yet turned ashes halt boy, stamp your dusty feet & trace the very footprints I await at the strand of the Nile come, let’s go plough our marshy terrain. home, our own home, our pride home, our sanctuary our night & light II Oh here! the prodigal voyagers recessing from the mist & sweet joy in my heart for them my pride lightens fury flames the sojourners have known is time to build up oh yeah, these heads have known home. home, our own home, our pride home, our sanctuary our night & light III I’ve known you brother long before you made footprints we used to sing reggae and jazz talk about rainbow and stars & everything beautiful for the motherland progress is, but a profound and consistent cataract & will have no boundary if these hands knows when and how to withstand adversities. home, our own home, our pride home, our sanctuary our night & light IV Come you let’s embrace allotted dominions laboring to the extreme our might allows as though we’re slaves for the land None knows when and how the moon shall sink into the sea but can tell the fate of my people if these hands will forever hold.

Art of love

By Awuah-Mainoo Gabriel


This composition is to establish the fact that there’s nothing like a perfect being. Love is based on complete acceptance and contentment. Two perfect (same likes) things repel, even if there is perfection it is somewhat to an extent. After all it is two different things that always attract.

To nature

By Awuah-Mainoo Gabriel


There's no perfect remedy than the one nature gives. I've been broken and betrayed countless times, aftermath this very song which came out spontaneously amidst a flowery ambiance where i use to sit turns out to be my deliverance and comforter. My thanks to nature.

This earth is far too beautiful

By Kate Bennett


Revering earth and mother nature. A mystical beautiful female figure. A love letter to nature and to a romantic partner. How two people see the beauty in the earth through each other's eyes and how love helps us see the magic in the world.

Ghost

By Eoghan Cleary


We are all defined by our past but sometimes we become what we hate. We have all done and said things we regret and it’s really important to resolve these things or there is a danger we might become what we are avoiding. It’s important to talk to friends or write down these thoughts just to let them go.

Diss-traction|Self-doubt

By Pushkala Yadadu


A state of mind, a verbal play and a self-talk of persuasion. Often, when we brood is when we get distracted. We lose the track of time, the purpose of life and get on a mode of self-criticism. As much as self-contemplation is necessary to keep a track of your game, it often becomes a bone of contention for an anxious running mind. So you become what you think and its overridden by self-doubt. This lyrics is about asking your mind to stay in track.
