HERE’S ANOTHER DEMO-TRACK from the proposed new music album. The album is entitled “The Battle for Everyone’s Hearts”. This demo track is entitled “The Writing on the Wall”. It needs some fiddle, light percussion, nice harmonies, and other tasteful contemporary folk orchestration. But this unplugged demo with me and my guitar is all you get for now. It is a kind of manifesto about the state of the world. I hope you saints find it inspiring. The video is below the lyrics. Here are the lyrics:

So here we are again
on the threshold of ‘once more’;
another year lies loomly through the door.
Turn the handle if you dare —
if you can handle what I’ll share.
Not for the fainterhearted is this war.

It’s not a war with guns,
or bombs, or uniforms.
In fact, this war defies all previous norms.
It’s centred on your mind —
to make you stupid, blind.
I hear it now in nearing thunderstorms.

You may not want to hear this:
but you’ll have to take a stand,
to challenge those who think they run this earth.
For they’ve wholly sold their souls;
world dominion is their goal,
To resist you’ll need no less than a rebirth.

[Refrain]
Wake up and see the writing on the wall;
the climax of the dark is drawing near.
But that very culmination spells its fall;
soon after, herald angels will appear!

When I say, “take a stand”,
I don’t mean take up arms
or anything which injures, hurts, or harms.
Such a stand comes from within,
and from wisdom, discipline;
plus we must not partake in false alarms.

The war of which I speak
is one which can’t be seen
on battlefields or ‘theatres’ (words obscene).
Through psyops, they enroll
many forms of mind-control —
Divine and natural law they contravene.

Now, you may reject, through fear,
what I’m propounding here:
That governments wage war on those they rule.
If you don’t research first-hand
and your head’s stuck in the sand,
through propaganda you’ll become a tool.

[Refrain]
Wake up and see the writing on the wall;
the climax of the dark is drawing near.
But that very culmination spells its fall;
soon after, herald angels will appear!

If you think your duty’s done
by living for the vote
(believing all you read, you live by rote),
then scoffing at those minds
who have not pulled down their blinds,
to darkness you won’t be the antidote.

Our foremost calling is
to see why we’ve been put here,
and not to be a programmed sloganeer.
We’re here to think and grow,
to learn who really runs the show,
then to be His faithful soldier-mutineer.

This life is all a test —
a school wherein we ride,
if we can for discernment now decide.
Then we must carefully choose
upon which hills our lives to lose,
not squander them in ignorance or pride.

[Refrain]
Wake up and see the writing on the wall;
the climax of the dark is drawing near.
But that very culmination spells its fall;
soon after, herald angels will appear!

So wake up to these truths
and regain what in one’s youth
is passion for all justice to prevail.
Don’t be a heartless clone
whose mind has never grown.
It’s time to sabotage hate’s paper trail.

When one seeks what’s only real,
then scales fall from their eyes.
It’s like a law, & soon they’ll find they’re wise.
A free soul then you’ll be —
devout with gallantry.
Expose the war-stuffed shirts & suits and ties.

But now the battle seethes
around us like a dream;
distorting and deceiving with its schemes.
Though archons have their way
And only seem to lead the fray,
one day the faithful ones will be redeemed.

[Refrain]
Wake up and see the writing on the wall;
the climax of the dark is drawing near.
But that very culmination spells its fall;
soon after, herald angels will appear!
