From the recording Divine Inspiration
Sometimes when I sit down to write and the time is right, I get lost in my thoughts and feel like the lyric is writing itself. To achieve the state of mind necessary to write what I really want, requires me to separate from any attachment I may have to worldly things. When I say in this song "You have to be brave to create" I'm referring to this detachment and any fear or concern that while I'm creating the world might pass me by.
Lyrics
Divine Inspiration
What about the here and now the days and nights passing
Like the sunset on an ocean sky when the colors mesmerize
My eyes they want to see the sight again because it takes me
To the place I want to be so magical and moving
Divine inspiration it doesn’t take hold if a man isn’t bold
Divine inspiration you have to be brave to create
In our day and age we’re so far away from purity
And good ignoring what we should and only wanting more of what we
Had before and everything we have are all the things we’ve had to justify
With lies we tell ourselves our kids and wives
Divine inspiration it doesn’t take hold if a man isn’t bold
Divine inspiration you have to be brave to create
It’s a gift from above to be free like a dove
When you give up control to be led by your soul
When confusion is gone one can move on
But you have to let go to connect to the flow
Divine inspiration it doesn’t take hold if a man isn’t bold
Divine inspiration you have to be brave to create
The words out there are so obscene don’t say a thing they only scream
About a trend that in the end takes me far from who I am without a choice
A racy voice steals my heart and removes my eyes from Heaven
And enrolls me as a soldier of sprite
Divine inspiration it doesn’t take hold if a man isn’t bold
Divine inspiration you have to be brave, you have to be brave
You have to be brave to create
