"I was gifted new eyes to see..."

I first saw Nahko at a NYC Summerstage event in Central Park. I like his energy and the creative ways he describes the awakening...coming more online...processes...


"Budding Trees"


In the moon of the budding trees I was gifted new eyes to see All of the shifting shape and ways you can be Wake the dreams into realities Wake the dreams into realities Sunset diamonds trickle down our cheeks The language of no words is how we speak Pacha Mama spinning firelight And a Little Bear singing by the fireside Out of this city with the wind on our neck That's us whistling upon your neck Moonlit diamonds sparkle into my mouth Feels like hunger and it tastes like salt Feels like hunger and it tastes like salt So, tap me out and tap me into you Heal my brain and my body too Balance my chemistry hydrate these cells Cuz the body talks and the meditation helps The body talks and meditation helps The body talks and meditation helps A little bit of cinnamon pours as we snoot All up on my shit in the morning commute Coastal quiver on a quest through the dunes Sandy toes and bottomless curves of the moon Heavy lifting for Pele's children Hand of the goddess soaking cliffs keep building Plate is full but appetite has dwindled I feel a little sick so I keep the fire kindled You the pillar steadfast light of bravery And I the dimly burning candle still shaking Riddled fear quiver my bones so easy! Well, you're the guru now so visualize healing Yeah, you're the guru now so visualize leaving Let her go for she can no longer feed you [1] And many children need that mana creature Just barely missed you I was finally ready! But you are a long gone too much heavy history Yeah you are a long gone too much heavy history Let go of blame that shit will never serve me! Bless other men investigate your mystery So, tap me out and tap me into you Heal my brain and my body too Balance my chemistry hydrate these cells Cuz the body talks and the meditation helps The body talks and meditation helps The body talks and meditation helps Little spider weaves a wispy web And stumbling through the woods it catches to my head She crawls behind my ear and whispers secrets Dragonfly wiz by and sings now teach it Yeah, dragonfly wiz by and sings now teach it Form on the trail I watch you head up mauka I turn makai and whisper, "thank you sister" Edge of the west where water touches land You are the east with folded maps in hand Time to increase my frequency! Hands of light and bodies talking Gimme some of that wild fox medicine! But, keep me here in this wild present tense Fully supported on new lovers chest Dawning adventures sparkle get some rest! Dawning adventures sparkle get some rest! So, tap me out and tap me into you Heal my brain and my body too Balance my chemistry hydrate these cells Cuz the body talks and the meditation helps The body talks and meditation helps The body talks and meditation helps


[1] - these lyrics present a reason for my wandering out from my original Christian tribe...


I like the inclusion of lots of little ones in this video tale...



...and the energy flows over land and sea...
