Serpent King 07:16
Come into this world empty Depart from this world empty You are all drunk Yet none is thirsty Serpent King The power of life Give me your heart I’ll give you the world Shedding skin Throw off the past Damn the soul That depends on the flesh He who drinks from my mouth will become as I am and I shall be he Give the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor Give God what belongs to God And give me what is mine What goes into your mouth won't defile you What comes out of your mouth will destroy you I am the Serpent King The power of life Give me your heart I’ll give you the world Shedding skin Throw off the past Damn the soul That depends on the flesh He who drinks from my mouth will become as I am and I shall be he I will give you what no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, what no hand can touch A Slave with two masters will honor one, offend the other Give the Emperor what belongs to the Emperor Give God what belongs to God Give me what is mine We are the consciousness of the Earth All is one and know one’s worth If flesh came into being because of spirit Or the other way around It is all a marvel Yet I marvel at how this great wealth Has come to dwell in such poverty We are the consciousness of the Earth Since Mother Gaia gave us birth Guarding gold he can not use Lonely virgins he can’t abuse Your Dragon is huge indeed He is your greed, your lust, your need Slay the Dragon He’s holding you down And your Serpent Will make a sound Exit Dragon Enter Snake In this game of life You better stay awake You taught me so many lessons but you have forgotten them all Forgotten therefore- the Fall Forgotten your call Forgotten that to you I’m in thrall You taught me so many lessons that you have forgotten We come into this world empty Depart from this world empty We are all drunk Yet none is thirsty Forgotten us all Forgotten therefore we fall What goes into your mouth won't defile you What comes out of your mouth will destroy you Forgotten us all Forgotten therefore I crawl Forgotten the fall Forgotten your all You taught me so many lessons that you have forgotten Forgotten Forgive, not forget You don’t give, you don’t get Once two mountains have met Your story was set You better play dead To yourself in the head At night in our bed Endless tears will be shed You taught me so many lessons that you have forgotten

This is your invitation To become my Queen I will protect you I will embrace you Looking up I shall provide your needs This is your invitation Accepting offerings On your ruling Earthly throne You shall revere me as your jealous God If you can do with me and you can do without me I want no part of this This burns me, consumes me, destroys me Once upon a Love Turned concentration camp When push comes to shove I take the blame, my Love For this Fall from Grace For this bloody mess I Know This is all for saying yes To the Serpent To the Serpent The Serpent The Serpent Be careful lest in casting out your demon You exorcise the best thing in you The Serpent The Serpent Say yes to the serpent Say yes to life השם נתן השם לקח השם שכח השם ישלח The Serpent The Serpent Say yes to the serpent And come to life God’s nonexistent when you’re not around Bind both your sons to the altar Of your false divine Your Golden Calf Will blind your sight Cloud your mind Mock your sanity Ignore your petty little sacrifice If you can do with me and you can do without me I want no part of this This burns me, consumes me, destroys me Once upon a Love Turned concentration camp When push comes to shove I take the blame, my Love For this Fall from Grace This Kingdom Come I know The Serpent This Life Is This life is my sacrifice Carry on Godless

Heartbeat 10:08
Whenever you need me I’m one heartbeat away I’ll set the world on fire To let you have it your way Have it your way Have it your way I’ll lie for you, I’ii steal for you If ever you’d need me to Kill for you, die for you Go to hell to pull you through In the presence of God I make this vow To love and to cherish For better, for worse For richer, for poorer In sickness, in health Till Death do us part No force in the world Can rip you away Out of my arms I’ll keep them at bay I wish my life could happen Happen my way I wish my life would allow me Allow me to stay I want to stay I want to stay I want to stay I want to stay Beat I’ll smile for you, I’ll cry for you I’ll be your eyes when you can’t see through Read for you, write for you Tell one truth when you hear two In the presence of God I make this vow To love and to cherish Till Death do us part No force in the world Can rip you away Out of my arms As long as you want me to stay I wish my life could happen Happen my way I wish my life would allow me To have a say I want to stay No force in the world Can rip you away Out of my arms As long as you want me to stay I wish my life could happen Happen my way I wish my life would allow me To have a say I want to stay Whenever you need me I’m one heartbeat away I’ll set the world on fire To let you have it your way Have it your way I hear your heartbeat I need your heartbeat I have no heartbeat How can my broken heart beat You are my heartbeat

Known to the mind Not to the senses Her circumference is nowhere Her center is here No tongue has soiled her No word has reached her Breathe her in Axis Mundi She is the center Of an Intelligible Sphere In the center Coming together Eternity and movement Stillness and time יִמְלֹךְ ה' לְעוֹלָם, אֱלֹהַיִךְ צִיּוֹן לְדֹר וָדֹר, הַלְלויָהּ He who thinks he knows, doesn’t know He who knows that he doesn’t know, knows Transcending all thinking Beyond categories of being or non being There is no truth She is a thought She is an idea Take her in Axis Mundi You are in the center Of an Intelligible Sphere In the center Coming together The Buddha and the Serpent No Alpha No Omega He who thinks he knows, doesn’t know He who knows that he doesn’t know, knows He who thinks he knows, doesn’t know He who knows that he doesn’t know, knows Fake image of a false God generated by a culture where Science determines your perceptions of reality None can enter This world of polarity If not by the way Of a woman יְבָרֶכְךָ ה' וְיִשְׁמְרֶךָ יָאֵר ה' פָּנָיו אֵלֶיךָ וִיחֻנֶּךָּ יִשָּׂא ה' פָּנָיו אֵלֶיךָ וְיָשֵׂם לְךָ שָׁלוֹם וְשָׂמוּ אֶת שְׁמִי עַל בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַאֲנִי אֲבָרֲכֵם

I am the enemy I preach there is no freedom It is fiction An addiction Absolute dereliction We are not related I am the enemy I say that love Is chemical And electrical In the least dependable Your dedicated hatred is sacred Not faded, outdated Because you are intoxicated Enemy Of all mankind Enemy Of the blind I believe that it’s right Right to eat it But so wrong It is wrong Wrong to mistreat it I am underestimated I should be admitted Be committed, be submitted Bearing children should be permitted Only to those who prove fitted I’ve been manipulated Not appreciated Future pre-dictated Contract terminated Hostis Humani Generis Enemy Of all mankind Enemy Of the blind, the confined, Narrow mind, left behind, Unrefined

Transformations of consciousness Taking place through trials and revelations Divine Follow your sign We are all manifestations Of Divine consciousness Heaven and Hell Are within us All the Gods as well Magnified dreams Divine Standing in line Never trust a God of anger To Lead you to the Promised Land אל אחד Be the one who woke up Never follow a merciful God Who might condemn you to everlasting fire אל אחד Be the one to wake up Wake up Get up Stand up Make up Live up Give up Ate up Fed up I have no faith in an Almighty Who depends on me to feel content אל אחד Be the one to stand up We are all creation Striving for separation Heaven and Hell Are within us All the Gods as well Magnified dreams Divine Must re-align

Is this a private fight or can anybody join in? This is unsustainable Some Forms are unattainable Actions unexplainable Make me feel so terrible So terrible I am not an animal This is unbearable To make me feel so terrible This has no meaning No matter to which side you’re leaning If it’s not the center You’re just a pretender So be careful who you pretend to be Pretend to be Let me be If you found The fountain of youth Would it cause you pain Or would it soothe If you knew the secret To eternal life Would you go for pleasure Would you go for the knife Go for pleasure Go for the Knife Go for pleasure Go for the knife Go, Go, Go ,Go Just Go

פעם ממלכה קסומה, מקלט של עם נבחר היום בית מטבחיים קר, נסחר בכסף זר אם אין אני לי מי לי, ניל״י נפטרה אם אין מלאכה גם אין תורה, טבעית היא הברירה פעם אנשים טובים רוקדים ברחובות היום אריסטוקרטים וסתם גובי חובות סחר עבדים חוקי, גזל לאור יום אין כלכלה ואין חינוך- גם לא יהיה שלום אין חזון- יש מדינה אין חזון ?האם יהיה לנו מחר פעם אנשים טובים פלסו לנו את הדרך אמצע, שמאל, ימין- לכולם כבר אין ערך עושקים מורשים מצד, מנגד לובשי סחבות אם היה- יהיה לך עוד, אם לא, אז אין טובות פעם אני לדודי ודודי גם כן לי היום אם אין אני לי, נלמד לחיות גם בלי פעם בת חוה רכה השפילה מבטה היום אישה זועמת מתעוררת משנתה אין חזון- יש מדינה אין חזון האם יהיה לנו מחר? אין חזון- יש מדינה  אין חזון ?האם יהיה לנו מחר תם המנדט, מת החזון חוסלה גם הדת עבור שררה ושלטון אין כבר עיניין של עדות וצבעים כי כלום לא חשוב כשאין אלוהים הפך בה והפך בה, אין לה מה לתת היום היא רק לוקחת, שואבת עד שאתה מת סוף דבר הכל נשמע ולאף אחד לא אכפת ארץ זבת חלב ודבש הלכה קיבינימט אין חזון- יש מדינה אין חזון ?האם יהיה לנו מחר אין חזון- יש מדינה  אין חזון ?האם יהיה לנו מחר

about

You are listening to an album I never intended to make.
Life was good and I lived in the present, savoring every bit of it.
Then she abandoned me. I did not see it coming and I did not take it well. It is said that King David wrote Psalms when he left the throne and went to live in the desert, hiding from his murderous son.
I can relate.
You are listening to the soundtrack of the worse time of my life.
This album came into existence because I was broken hearted, suicidal, completely lost. It became an obsession. No one could keep up with me so between December 2019 and April 2020 over twenty-one individuals were working on this along with me; Gustaf was recording bass in Sweden, Steve Di Giorgio in the USA and Yossi Fine in Israel. Six guitar players (Alon, Tomy, Andy, Haim, James and Nir), three keyboard players (Shiraz, Derek and Tom), three vocalists (Yotam, Noa and Alona), four graphic designers, two percussionists (Ben and Itamar) and one Kossov guy was piecing together my ever evolving puzzle.
Orchestrating this Overture has kept me busy and served as a beam of guiding light at the end of a very dark tunnel.
