The 1st single off the album is a rocker with an uplifting message for these turbulent times. It's a call for people to leave behind the things which hold us back in favour of the things, and the people, who help us grow and make us truly - come alive.
lyrics
Why can’t you wake up? Wake up my friends!
We’re swelling the tide, instead of sifting the sands
Digging in dirt, we should be panning for gold
Trying to recapture the dreams of old
Don’t look away, don’t avert your eyes
When you see through it you will come alive
So grit your teeth, face it down
Take only what’s yours, be it hammer or crown
But time is short so don’t be late
Dig in your heels, this storm will not abate
You have to earn it, you could never win such a prize
When you get to hold it you will come alive
We beg for the truth, but do we really seek it?
Wrapped up with a bow, would we recognise it?
So few are truly given a choice
Even less know their own true voice
So, seek out that which liberates you
Reject that which runs you through
Choose carefully that for which you strive
Whatever it is, it should make you come alive!
When you see through it, you will come alive
When you get to hold it, you will come alive
When you hear it, you will come alive
When your heart finds it, recognize it.
And come alive
