Come Here 03:25
Custom Song for Cor Stahl Have you seen me? I’ve gone missing Shame has entered the room Lookin for love to show me the answer When I don’t seem to have a clue It was never about putting fires out all around me The magic didn’t work with just my silhouette I can feel it now, I don’t need the how to choose to value myself I know this, but sometimes I forget So I say Come here, come here, come here Back to what I know Basking in my glow Come here, come here, come here Now I’m laughing at my own jokes When I submit to the Truth it’s so clear When I step into myself, I appear So come here, come here, come here Come here Let myself cry, it’s okay I’m the one that wears my crown The Truth is I don’t need to be saved My bravery is here for me now No more ache, I’m wide awake, I choose differently I’m a giant deciding to fill my life with wealth So I take a breath, and then I take a step, I’m moving mountains I’m too legit to quit on myself So I say Come here, come here, come here Back to what I know Basking in my glow Come here, come here, come here Now I’m laughing at my own jokes When I submit to the Truth it’s so clear When I step into myself, I appear So come here, come here, come here Come here I make my own rules and I follow them Those hard to swallow pills, I can swallow them I believe the thing before I see it & I blow my own mind all the time I’m savouring this moment Move from the pond, I claim the ocean I’m stepping into my magician In submission, no fear to look the fool So I say Come here, come here, come here Back to what I know Basking in my glow Come here, come here, come here Now I’m laughing at my own jokes When I submit to the Truth it’s so clear When I step into myself, I appear So come here, come here, come here Come here The love for myself Is stronger than my shadows

Custom song for Sarah Alexander Gotta get my nose out of old photographs And my attachment to the past Frustration is my mating call for shadows to fill me For someone else to wipe my ass Who will I reject to protect my heart? How can I maintain the upper hand? I’ve created this laziness in my field Cause I don’t care for myself the way I can But I do love to fly No stakes, no brakes, just delight in my desires tonight Delight in my desires tonight Gotta be on top or I’m not my best Also got a taste for human flesh Got a button in me set to destroy Yes, I will burn it all down and make a mess Have you seen this genius, my other part? My vulnerable, soft, open heart Powerful beyond belief, believing what I don’t yet see Nothing to prove, no one to be Cause I do love to fly No stakes, no brakes, just delight in my desires tonight Delight in my desires tonight I do not care if the future is loomin’ Ima get off on killin the human The part of me that needs to be better I’m gonna get her I will not stop I will not break a sweat Cause anything I want, yeah I know I will get I will fly like a bullet train into the fire And you can love me, but it’s not required Cause I do love to fly No stakes, no brakes, just delight in my desires tonight Delight in my desires tonight Cause I get what I want What I want isn’t always clear But I know and I go Towards the power and never towards the fear

When I open my eyes in the morning Already know I’m behind I feel my body is breaking down Sometimes I wanna die If you see a sweet wallflower That’s just who I’ve been But watch me lead and scream and be wild Cause I’m not here to fit in Oh I’m limitless I know I’m limitless I’m the king, it’s my kingdom I can have and be anything Nothing’s too big or too much for me Create my power and love for me I’m the king, it’s my kingdom Do what I want, I get everything Nothing’s too big or too much for me I own my power and set me free I am dancing and I’m in my power Right now, and anytime I choose I love my body, I hold myself I know I never lose Next step is for me alone That’s the only true way home So I’m gonna be with myself and love on me I’m the king, it’s my kingdom I can have and be anything Nothing’s too big or too much for me Create my power and love for me I’m the king, it’s my kingdom Do what I want, I get everything Nothing’s too big or too much for me I own my power and set me free I’m on my throne, I’m givin’ myself all the credit This is my tone, the truth is unapologetic I let myself be bold, I’m built from solid gold. (Ooh yeah, oh yeah!) I was wrong, to think I’d be happy staying small I come on strong, now you see me I’m a wrecking ball I love to blow my mind, I’ve got nothing to hide I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive! I’m the king, it’s my kingdom I am GOD, I am everything Nothing’s too big or too much for me I love myself now and now I’m free I’m the king, it’s my kingdom I am GOD, I am everything Nothing’s too big or too much for me Create my power and love for me Nothing’s too big or too much for me I love myself now and now I’m free!

You are not your mind You are not your mind It's time to let it go For good I wait for nothing So I receive it all Filling my world with the magic of me The genius of this Creation of bliss KALA You can always do the thing You never thought you could do You can have everything, it all comes from you You can even choose your stage You can always choose your part You are, after all, both the artist and the art Destiny, darkness, and death Universes created in a breath I wait for nothing So I receive it all filling my world with the magic of me The genius of this Creation of bliss KALA Strip down Release Who you think you need to be So you can become what you’re meant for It’s an empty cavern A heartless cadaver A gorgeous Massacre A Bloodbath for your shadows The Birth of your Godhead Genius-Borne KALA Find me if you dare
