Nu Merica enters the Matrix
Something so personal...my thoughts down on paper, then vocalized, and turned into song...then shared with the world. Something so freeing and expanding, that i hold sacred. I've had a crazy life, that has seen so much death...so much beauty... so much to be thankful for...so much to make me Believe in something more...so much to fight for with all my heart. Come with me on this journey, and I promise you will always receive truthful energy, and all that is here for you
