Ravensong is my solo project. You can find my last single here www.ravensongofficial.com . I am releasing 'Ups and Downs' in September/October. It is a small concept e.p that relates to the truth of people in growth, using the ups and downs of a couple in and out of love as the vehicle- They meet, they fall in love, there is expectation and ownership, they break up and life moves on, their union disolved due to their beliefs and inability to care for one and other without holding each other to ransom, as it were.
That may seem rather negative, however at certain stages in life I feel we are all of us both of the characters and perhaps, though they are 'imperfect/ child like', they are also human and on their life journey- Learning as they go. It is the hope of all writers/musicians to touch the heart of a reader/listener. To that end, life experience is the great ally of any artist, without judgement but recognition.
The first song is called 'Systems Govern Rational' and speaks of the first love. The pining love. The I could, would and will never live without you love. Here is the poetry
SYSTEMS GOVERN RATIONAL-PART 1
(There’s only you)
If falling is only the half way,
I don’t know what I’ll do
Devotion is so critical
It brings us ever closer in view
But if I don’t, if I don’t, have you….
Steps forward become minimal
As systems govern our rational
Oooohhh there’s only you
There’s only you
The motion of falling is appalling
And the mind betrays the heart in his way
(But) follow your life with all yearning
And your world will fall into place
'Cos if I don’t, if don’t have you…..
We might as well all be sentinels
As systems govern your rational
There’s only you
There’s only you…………!
As you can tell this is a song :) So for fun, I think I will do a version of it tomorrow and upload it to steamit before the official releases. Be well and stay fabulous.
