about

I wrote this downstairs in an old church in Nashville, TN in 2015. It was recorded and produced by me between October 2014 and May 2016 in Nashville, TN

lyrics

ANTHROPOPATHIA

Greek ἄνθρωπος anthropos, "human" and πάθος pathos, "suffering") is the attribution of human emotions, or the ascription of human feelings, more vastly any number of characteristics to God.

Your still small voice is a comforting sound to receive. When all "I" wanna do is play the fool for YOU and speak your legal ease. Howbeit in the Spirit we speak mysteries, come whisper in my ear. It's clear that any day or year you’re my belated dream. “All you wanna do is run, be careful what you ask for my son. ‘Cause I won't play the fool, no I won't play the fool, no I won't play the fool. Like father, like son, like him, like her, like you” Does the moon solely exist (I wish), to reflect the sunlight? Or did I become a mirror, for a different Son's shine. When I'm splitting at the seams in the colorful leaves, they say: "don't believe,” but I need you here close to me. Come build me up, or break me down Come (Build me up / Change my clothes) ‘Till I don't recognize my “self" anymore. “John, all you want to do is run. Be careful what you ask for my son. ‘Cause I won't let you down. No! I won't let you down. No! I won't let you down. That’s why I'm still hanging around.” Family if you don’t, if you don't want to make a change. Friends if you don’t, if you don't want to make a change. Lovers if you don’t, if you don't want to make a change. Others if you don’t, if you don't want to make a change. We're through! You know what you do. We’re through! I’m nobody's fool but my own. I’m a son of God! I'm all on my own no more I'm a son of God bless me.
