about

Let Us Begin The Future is now available! The album is meant to be listened to as one continuous piece, rather than the songs played individually.

Let Us Begin The Future is a journey album, that takes you through the current state of earth’s existence and touches on many themes both directly and indirectly;
It starts in a dream, a deep sleep across the universe, the chaos that ensues throughout it and within it. The effects of this chaos on humankind, loss of love, hatred, fear, anxiety… the machines that control us. A moment of realization about an oppressive state of being and how humankind has become the machine that eats itself, and how we must escape from it, find our destiny, and experience a future that encompasses a new state of being, one of hope and the antidote to chaos. We hope you enjoy the album we’ve worked so hard on for the last 5 years. We are thrilled to have it done and to move on to what comes next (the “future?!”).

Thank you to everyone who has supported us and continues to support us in this endeavor. Let Us Begin The Future.

lyrics

Verse:
Watch you move to the beat
But they're sober to it
And it’s a game of hearts
But they take you to the fence
And they beat you through it

Chorus:
Run and hide
Here come the night men
Dead inside
Sent from the government
They don't own you,
they don't own me,
we are the great unwashed you see

Watch you move 
To the street 
And they follow you through it
And it's a play on chance
When you line up your defenses
But they've beat you to it

Run and hide
Here come the night men
Dead inside
Sent from the government
They don't own you,
they don't own me,
we are the great unwashed you see
