Mars © Here II Here (V1) Closer than you've ever been, I see red You could very well be the heart of our familiar skies They named you after war, but I feel peace At a certain point distance fades with your eyes (Pre Chorus) 687 Days in a year, gives us more time To be near And while everybody's trying to reach the stars I passionately reach for Mars (Chorus) I stare into the sky, I refuse to blink my eyes I don't want to wait another 60,000 trips around the sun I see you in my dreams, lover of extremes I don't want to wait another 60,000 trips cause you're the one (V2) T'was so hard to resist, but I've been pulled I've been pulled into your orbit a gravitational embrace They say you're not alive but I know best Life is ever present like the rust on your face (Pre Chorus) (Chorus) (Bridge) Your Martian skin, spins in the Great Heavens, forms in motion floating fourth planet from the sun, funny how me and you seem to be One, With you I'm bound, Mountain climbing on the Olympus Mound, I found inner calmness away from Human hysteria, colder than Antarctica, dryer than the Sahara The Era will come oxygen domes on your surface, eating organic space salads drinking geo thermal spring water No thought, No mind, MySelf makes you unwind, real or unreal, you feel or think you feel, Don't call me anything but yourself, Beyond the range of wordly discourse Thought you knew, thought you knew yourself, When the mirror has nothing to reflect, not a single object to neglect, and let's not dissect, but let it be Windex sprayed clear Let these vibrating auras bend, shape and mold your Atmosphere (Chorus X2)

Nobody is a Victim Here! ©2010, HERE II HERE Your peace isn't dependent on the rest of the world yet the peace of the world is solely up to you Your eyes have all the power to transform what they see, if they focus on the war Who the hell is gonna see the Peace So rise up people and see with the eyes of your soul Let's rewrite history, erase all the lies we have told cause Chorus No body is a victim here No body is a victim here No body is a victim Emancipate yourself from mental slavery like Bob Marley The mind is like a prisoner who won't use the key it would rather be enslaved than to set itself free It locks itself in memories and complaints about now always talking always screaming so it can't hear the sound So raise your voices and sing from the silence within There's nothing more powerful Than a people who knows who they is Ohhhhh Chorus Bridge You're not a victim of the Government A victim of the church You're not a victim to the beings that contributed to your birth You're not a victim of Society A victim of some race Not a victim not a victim There's no victim in this place You're not a victim of the rapist, or the murderer or thief You're not a victim to the fear that causes souls to lie and cheat You're not a victim of your body A victim of disease Not a victim not a victim Till you believe the thoughts you think! Chorus

Dance of Liberation I was never the one to twirl around and shake until I'd scream I was never the one who allowed these limbs to move in ecstasy I was never the one who'd enjoyed being possessed by life's heart beat I was too busy being afraid and clinging to my seat ohh But then someday I just got up and I'm not coming down Not coming down I'm not coming down Chorus And now I dance The dance we're all dancing Surrendered all control To what's breathing me And when I dance this dance The whole world dances with me This is the dance of liberation You're the only DJ that holds the key It's up to you to free this beat Gotta free this beat Gotta free this beat Gotta free this beat Gotta free this beat Verse 2- I was never the one to say hello and look love in the eye I was never the one to dance inside with joy until I cried I was never the one to shine my light brighter through the dark times I was too busy concerned with all the ways I'd try to hide But then one day my soul flew out and it's not coming down Not coming down No not coming down Chorus And now I dance The dance we're all dancing Surrendered all control To what's breathing me And when I dance this dance The whole world dances with me This is the dance of liberation You're the only DJ that holds the key It's up to you to free this beat Gotta free this beat Gotta free this beat Gotta free this beat Gotta free this beat Shamanic Bridge Chorus

Promising For All ©2010, HERE II HERE We do some unthinkable things To each other All because we think to much Enslave and kill our sisters and brothers In the name of heavens bluff Pre-Chorus Oh we lie to protect the lies of our fathers And we die to protect the fears of our mothers And we kill to ensure we don't ever face the unknown When that's the only face we've ever known Chorus Where is the space? Where is the freshness? For a new horizon to arise in the dream of our species Gotta trust the unknown before we can hold on to a tomorrow That is promising for all We think we can own the world when possessions Aren't even real So blind to the abundance of now Our own freedom Is all we ever could steal Pre Chorus Chorus Outro All means All There's no way to exclude, separate, All means All everyday, For the human race I pray.

That's All 04:07
THAT’S ALL ©2001 Here II Here (verse 1) I can see our paths are turning different ways Even though we’re headed for the same place Something in your kiss is missing don’t know why Well I don’t need to know I think this is goodbye I have to admit that I’m still holding on And my hands of flesh are also hands of light Your laugh will always be my favorite song I’ll hear it in the wind while making love tonight (chorus) No matter what you do You’re always gonna love me No matter what you say Your words are gonna help me No matter where you go We’ll always be together Separation does not exist All is One and that’s all there is (verse 2) There are no hard feelings I’m a little scared And on an open road that leads to nowhere This is all so silly yet so natural What we’re going thru will only help us grow I used to think that I would fall apart That without you here I’d be lost in the dark You were just reflecting that which shines in me I watched you drive away this is what’s meant to be (chorus repeat) (bridge) To some degree you I’ll miss The truth is I can’t seem to find an end to our first kiss

Who’s Got a Problem with the Ego? ©2009, Here II Here Who's got a problem with the ego? Who's got a problem with the mind? It's like saying infinity, gets its panties in a twist over time Who's got a problem with emotions Who's got a problem with feeling down It's like saying the endless sky has a problem with each cloud Chorus: Who's got a problem with the ego? Ohh ohhh ohh Who's got a problem with the mind? Eya Eya Eyahnd X 2 Who's got a problem with the mind? You look and no one you will find. Who's got a problem with the mind? Who's got a problem with the body? Who's got a problem with its name? It's like saying the ocean, has a problem with each wave Who's got a problem with the thoughts? Ohhh even if there's a million of them You can push and fight till you realize That the only thing that's got beef with the mind is the mind! Chorus: Who's got a problem with the ego? Ohh ohhh ohh Who's got a problem with the mind? Eya Eya Eyahnd X 2 Who's got a problem with the mind? You look and no one you will find. Who's got a problem with the mind? ** THE RAP Alexander (Alex Perez) Ego, me problem with the ego What happened to them happy days I'm so amazed where did we go We decided to grow Blossoming into this brain that's insane when it thinks it Knows all in absolute it's deranged You got a problem with yo ego You got a problem with yo mind You got a problem with a problem You wanna solve 'em all the time Time bro you see the time is now I said Love yo don't need to take a bow I've heard some stuff though but this is whack by far Said this is whack by far It's like my heart telling my blood You gotta stay in the veins Don't even think about an entrance This is not your domain Man that's the silliest shhhh I've ever heard it's a joke Spark up this ego story Watch it go up in smoke Bryancito (Bryan Reeves) It seems like forever I've been wrestling with ego FIGHT! FIGHT! That's the only mode I really know?!?! But when I stop, breathe .. take a look around Ain't nothing here but ever-present holy ground Now I'm back to the start seeing with new eyes living from the heart The birds the bees infinite galaxies Every single second exponential possibilities Jump jump throw your hands to the sky above SCREEEEAM ... Everything is already love!!! So when u think something's wrong check check check yourself and come back to this song Destined for nothing but self acceptance every war U fight is with yourself we all innocent Dive into reality life is so Rico   Give up the fight and make peace with the ego!!!

Wings 04:43
Wings ©1999, INNER VOICE / HERE II HERE I don't ever need to worry anymore I know that you're okay Like a child playing next to the seashore Running with the waves Enjoy yourself in Paradise Learn all you could learn Share the love that's in your eyes And know I'm not concerned Because ... CHORUS Every time you leave my arms You take my wings with you You could never be too far They'll always follow you You leave my arms and take my Wings with you Look up at the sun and there you'll see my face Shining down on you You can feel my kiss with every drop of rain My breath caresses you Clouds are bound to come your way The earth will sometimes SHAKE But your heart will stay the same And guide you on your way Because ... (CHORUS) BRIDGE Te llevas mis Alas con tigo cuando de mis manos .. te vaz (CHORUS)

LOVE APPROVES © HERE II HERE What can I say, I like strong arms around my waist and powerful hands that gently caress my face What could I do but choose to be true To this that I feel whenever I'm around you (Chorus) And I know, I know, I know That love approves Cause it's only love, only love That's shining through And I know, I know, I know That it's alright Cause it's only love it's only That's in my baby's eyes What would I give to taste the sweetness of your lips through the stubble on your face when you forget to shave What would life be without honoring what's always free this love is so real between another man and me (Chorus) I like to think about the strength there has to to just Hold each other's hand and walk on through society cause a Love's here on this earth and it's not afraid of getting burned cause we Know in our hearts we've always chosen love first X2 I know I know that God approves cause it's only God that's shining through.

Alas 04:42
Alas (the Spanish version of "WINGS") © Here II Here Ya no necesito preocuparme mas Yo se que estarás bien Como cuando un nino juega en el mar Las olas en sus pies Un paraíso te espera ay mucho que aprender Tu corazón te guiara yo se que estarás bien porque Coro Cada vez que tu te vas mis alas te llevas No importa donde tu estés, siempre te cubrira Mis alas siempre te acompanyaran Si me quieres ver solo mira el sol Brillando en tu ser Yo te besare con gotas de amor Rosando tu piel Hay montañas que cruzar, la tierra temblara Mas no tienes que pensar, ni debes dudar porque Coro Te llevas mis alas contigo cuando de mis manos te vas Te llevas mis alas contigo cuando de mis manos te vas Coro

I Don’t Know $#!T ©2005, Here II Here Everybody’s walking ‘round like they shh don’t stink Quietly wishing they’re better, smarter, richer, stronger, prettier than you Claiming life and land and all the thoughts they think Yes you’re the only one that’s right in a whole Universe of fools But I’m a tell the Truth… Ch. I don’t know shit, You don’t know shit, They don’t know shit We don’t know shit He don’t know shit She don’t know shit Now ain’t that some… Vs 2 I’m not talking ‘bout like knowing how to bake a cake Or how to drive or read or write or even brain surgery ooh wee But the simplest of questions humanity’s been asking like since Before, before, before, before we invented time Where did we come from? Why are we here? Who am I? Who am I? Ch. Bridge: taken from the HERE II HERE song "Plankton" off the Debut Album
