I've been wanting to do this for a while. I'm trying to write a song about my beliefs tied in to how it all relates to current trends and events (2012, shifting of the ages, the end of the mayan calendar, age of aquarius, 11:11, etc).
Quite the task, impossible to do in one song but at least shed some light?
... or maybe I should just stick to love songs . So anyways, hopefully I won't get slammed too badly here.
My beliefs consist on each of us having an inner knowing, an inner self that is our connection to All that is however you choose to call 'him'. It is our infinite self, our most true self, our small piece of the All, and it knows, what is best for us. It is also our bridge between us and him. This might be your inner knowing” or “your inner voice” perhaps a better description would be “our internal GPS”.
I also feel that we are increasingly moving into a more spiritual era rather than a religious one. The reasoning behind 'becoming one' (in the lyrics below) is that I "feel" in the future a majority of the people will seek answers within themselves rather than in what their families taught them to believe (Religion). And (fingers crossed) what we believe will have a major common ground.
So for example as I finished my first draft of this song, I came a cross a very interesting video that happened to share some of these exact same beliefs (only the first 10-20 minutes though): http://youtu.be/7JV86gpR-gQ
Here is the actual song with the melody and a bunch of babbling (Nothing done to it and raw mix so be sure to turn the volume up):

With that in mind, here is a draft of the lyrics I have so far for the song. You can follow along 'my babbling' to see how I'm trying to fit these words into the melody:
---------
"TITLE" (IDEAS: 6th Sense, Awakening as One, The Answer lies Within, 11:11, Inner Voice, any ideas?)
Watch the signs
and hear the rhythmic beat
of our hearts
we are awakening
In a world
with a new constellation
spiritual freedom
and no more religions
'Cause
We become the light
We always knew
There's only one way to feel his words
and we become One
Starts with you
Let's begin to rise
(CHORUS)
All the answers
Lie in a place deep inside (is that ok? or should I pick 'hide in a place deep inside')
The bridge between us and him
Search your feelings
You are the only one
I know you know the truth
So me
I am waiting, watching, searching for the truth
The truth
(Can I add an 'I' above and below here? Or should I stick and replace all ' I's ' for 'We'?)
Some people say
that the world will end
I tell them, no
It's a time of rebirth
Some people say
Planet 'X' will crash
What they don't know
is that he will arrive (not sure about this last sentence but can't think of anything else right now)
(Same pre-chorus, maybe I should try to change it a bit so is not repetitive?)
'Cause
We become the light
We always knew
There's only one way to feel his words
and we become One
Starts with you
Let's begin to rise
All the answers
Lie in a place deep inside
The bridge between us and him
Search your feelings
You are the only one
we know you know the truth
So we
We are waiting, watching, searching for Him
BRIDGE
We know that
You'll be alone
But nothing changes when you are strong
So Maybe
You'll be ok
But nothing will be the same
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
CHORUS-OUTRO
--------------------
[I don't like the "'cause" too much, but I can't think of a word to use in order to hit the note I need to hit and I don't want to say 'oh' and the 'and' is already taken (..and no more religion, and we become the light). Please let me know if the " 'Cause" does bother you or sounds out-of-place]
Please send me some guidance!! Fire away!!
