Name: Raven
Duration: P00H03M21S
Description: Inspired by watching a Raven circling a purple sky before a storm. Seeing parallels between our culture and how we are out of balance, and knowing Raven is the messenger, telling us to slow down, listen to the water, listen to the signals we are getting to tune into our authentic selves and be more gentle.

lyrics

Raven by Kristin Lindell

Yearnin’ inside of my soul
Stronger than ever before
Waitin for lightning to come
Prayin’ to break with a storm

Thunder rolls over my head
Sky is darkest of dread
Waitin’ for heaven to pour
Rain down on my soul

Silver water through the darkness shimmerin’
Know the truth, the songs I must sing

Lightnin’ flashes white fire
I’m open, purified
Beatin’ inside of my bones
Callin’ me callin’ me home

Silver water through the darkness shimmerin’
Know the truth, songs I must sing

A Instrumental 8 bars

Callin’ a river deep inside you
Follow the shadows that wind into the darkest blue

Raven you’re callin me now
Your laughter is echoing down
I follow you fast through the trees
Heavy the smell of the sea

Silver water through the darkness shimmerin’
Know the truth, songs I must sing
X2
I know I know I know I know, I know who I am
