He was the King of Diamonds And there it was a scene He'd groove his way around Cause deep down he was free He lit up all the people's hearts And everyone released Everybody relax and dance cause deep down you are free Everybody just relax and dance because you're free God king savior of the dance floor When will he ever return The silky smoothness of his moves was woven from heaven and earth He lit up all the people's hearts And everyone released Everybody relax and dance cause deep down you are free Everybody just relax and dance because you're free

Monk in the woods How good it is to simply be Silence in the woods Emptiness is clarity Monk in the woods How good it is to simply breathe Open your mind You'll find you don't need anything Listen to the trees Listen to the birds that sing Listen to the breeze Listening to everything Monk in the woods How good it is to simply be Silence in the woods Emptiness is clarity

Beginning inspirations Another point of view Cave in to aspirations So say me to you I have an admiration For many those of you Who had an inclination And watered it and grew My source of inspiration Like thunder from the sky Broke down my reservations And opened me up wide My source of inspiration Like thunder from the sky Broke down my reservations And opened up my eyes This is my salutation To all of those of you Who choose to hear my masterpiece And may you have yours too

Childhood 03:08
A child is born without disease A child is born without decay Father time did plant the seed And mother earth did cultivate There is wisdom in the way He doesn't know the words you say He doesn't even know his name He never even played the game A child is born Without a care He doesn't know Whats out there A child is born Without a say He doesn't even Know the way A child is born without the greed A child is born without the hate Father sky did plant the seed And mother earth did cultivate He doesn't even know his name He doesn't even know his name He never even played the game He doesn't even know the way A child is born Without a care He doesn't know What's out there A child is born Without a say He doesn't even Know the way

I am made of flesh But I came from the light Now I need to drink from the rivers And breathe that I may be I came from the light But now I am of flesh Now I need to feed from the land so I can walk and talk and see I am made of clay And so are all of you Now we need to drink from the waters And feed upon the Earth I came from the sky Now I'm on the earth Now I need to drink from the waters And feed upon the Earth

Just a little love and harmony Is what we need We can find a way To find peace Good company Is what we keep If we work together we can find peace We can find peace We can find peace If we all work together we can find peace If you're Muslim or Jew If you're Christian or Buddhist I don't care what you think We can all make it thru this I don't care if you're gay Just leave behind all the hate If we work together we can find a way We can find a way We can find a way If we all work together we can find a way Just a little love and harmony Is what we need We can find a way To find peace Good company Is what we keep If we work together we can find peace If you're in a monkey suit Hey I'm no better than you But just keep in mind That is true for you too We could make amends We could all be friends Black, white, yellow, red and green men So all you old hippie dudes And the jugallos too And the dubstep kids And the hip hop crew I don't listen to country but it's cool if you do I wan't you to know that I love all of you Even if you're stuck on the dope Even if you're running out of hope Even if you cheated on me Even though that hurts my soul So all you metal heads And you reggae dudes I want you to know that I love all of you I love all of you, I love all of you I want you to know that I love all of you

about

This is the first part of a quintuple album called The LP Ching. The LP Ching is a representation of an ancient Chinese book called The I Ching. The I Ching is called the Book of Changes, it is the study of change and also the study of yin and yang. It illustrates 64 dynamic circumstances that can exist between people, between groups of people, or for an individual, by examining the nature of yin and yang. It is an ancient mathematical approach to sociology. The original text is written to be understood by Chinese culture thousands of years ago, and a lot of the metaphors don't make sense to most people these days.

The LP Ching illustrates all of the hexagrams of the I Ching in a way that is more easily understood by our modern American culture of sex, drugs and Rock and Roll. Each song represents a feeling, thus all of the songs are different and there is a song for every feeling.

The LP Ching part 1 is the first 13 tracks of this great project.
