about

This song was part of a 48 hour challenge sponsored by www.MVI48.com as well as the Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville, the Spark Grant, and Florida Blue. Four Jacksonville based artists were selected to participate in this challenge. Each were given one word, a theme, two notes and 48 hours to write, record, and produce a song. Then each artist was paired with a local film maker who was then given 48 hours to write, direct, film and edit a music video for the song.

Special thanks to Maxwell Lee, James Siler, and Jonathan Taveras

lyrics

your words are flooding
the trenches I've dug
with self deprecating lies
that I've used as a drug
I wouldn't have told you
if you wouldn't have wondered
but the burden of solitude
is pulling me under
oh-oh-oh

I won't stay hidden anymore
beneath the ashes of incinerated fears
the weight of all that I've endured
won't keep me hidden anymore

despondency is flammable
when you've lost control
and the embers of your fire
have taken their toll
there's a devil breaking out of me
can't keep him contained
the erosion from his pleading
has driven me insane
oh-oh-oh

rise above the grounding of your dread
let your demons lay themselves to rest

Young and Courageous
by Tides Of Man

Instrumental Progressive rock. If I were to describe the record in one word, I'd say it was "Intentional". Intentional in the realm of each track being carefully and lovingly composed. Love it. Chasing Jonah

Old Tree
by Goodnight Neverland

The lyrical vulnerability and melodic conviction hits home for a songwriter such as myself. Lead singer, Kerry Courtney delivers his soul with one of the most brilliant voices I've ever heard. Chasing Jonah
