Mausoleum

(Jonathan Berry)

We know our losses before they hold us back
Surrendering now we embrace these things we knew as defeat
So many of the words are vacant as the fields we dreamt of
And we can't drink of the nectar as it is disruptive of the choices

Join the bodies in the pit
Forever chained to the destiny
It's already written for us it seems
But I'll walk these walls with you

I worry that I'm here lost in the day and am just ordinary
I wonder if I'm even meant for this world 
Somewhere there's a place for me 
But could a taste of water be so wrong?

"I know the burden of your heart
I know the shackles around your feet
I know the deafness in your mind
I know the callous of your life"

But down here in the grave we don't see the sun
But sometimes I can hear you singing
That song that's been carried along the breeze 
Or maybe that's just the sound of the angels 
Maybe this time they'll take me home
In my mind I am everything and I'm all of you
But it appears i am ordinary
And I'll still climb these walls with you for a while longer

Just a taste though and I'll believe you

Move Your Heart

By Darius Winfrey

This song is what I call, the heart's cry to reach God. I wrote this song, being mindful of the position of our hearts, to move his heart. Like, the way he feels, just simply knowing, I can make him happy, by giving him pure worship. Firstly, recognizing my state of being, and the need for him from his heart to bless me in a way, that makes our relationship even more real. That at every moment, I get, I want too commune with him, I know my desire is to move his heart, that allows me to give to him, what I know he would enjoy. it's simply a heart to heart connection, my humanity reaching to his divinity.
