Find It

about

Further exploration into the fusion of Indian slide guitar, beats and poetry. Following up on the success of 'Bhim' (feat. Spotify's Raga Lounge playlist), more works towards presenting Indian classical music to a younger audience. The lyrics come from my travels in India among the spiritual "seekers": those hopping from yoga class, to ashram, to nightclub always searching for their place and truth. Sometimes, the search becomes intoxicating in itself and stifles the voice within.

lyrics

Give thanks for life
The most previous gift

Stop your searching and find it
What makes you calm inside, the quiet
How to sing a song and stay silent
You want to do something, just try it

Stop searching and find it
What makes you calm inside, the quiet
How to sing a song and stay silent
You want to do something, just try it

Just try it
Try it
Try it
Try it
Try it
Just try it
Try it

Let me tell you a little story about success

Check

First time I failed
Second time I bailed
Third time I get rejection letter in the mail
Fourth time set sail
Fifth time in jail
Sixth time I just go home and grow kale

Seven a me lucky number
Baby you give me reason to turn over
Seven a me lucky number
Yeah baby a new leaf we turn over

Stop your searching and find it
What makes you calm inside, the quiet
How to sing a song and stay silent
You want to do something, just try it

Try it
Try it
Just try it
Try it
Try it
Try it

Everybody everybody everybody

Hold a medi

Everybody everybody everybody

Move your body
Everybody everybody everybody
Hold a medi

Everybody everybody everybody

Move your body
Everybody everybody everybody
Hold a medi

A prayer and a process, Joel’s music aims to heal, calm and strengthen.
