Time To Understand (Díaz)
You have been building an empire of gold,
Humiliating the earth, killing so much,
Now you feel secure in the darkness
With your face against the wallEvery day of your life
You buy the priest but sell your soul
If you move into the grief direction,
Sinking your self in the kingdom of dustSometimes you think that you’ve become
In a successful being, being far from love
Sometimes you feel that the deepest winter
Took your soul forever moreI know the winter has been long
But now it’s time to understand and to fly
Your empire of gold is just the kingdom of dust
Money can’t get the tickets not to dieNow, every day of your life
You are closer to your real home
If you ascend into the Sun Mansion
Raising your self from the kingdom of dust
From this kingdom of DustI know the winter has been long
But now it’s time to understand and to fly
Your empire of gold is just the kingdom of dust
Money can’t get the tickets not to dieYou must strike down the wall and to fly
Through the wonder skies and forever say goodbye
It’s time to understand and to fly
together into the light -
Spring Knocks On The Door Of Men (Díaz – Peraza)
The Tale
A long time ago, the manuscripts of an unknown book were found. Even though some people thought that they referred to a fiction story, others yet defended the idea that they were parts of a volume coming from ancient clairvoyants that narrated the mysteries of human existence and an unbreakable bond with the powers of the universe.
The legend goes like this…Act I – Spring Arrives From Her Celestial Dwelling – The Ordinance (Instrumental)
It is told that the Mother of the world who the Ancient called Spring would descend each day on Earth from spheres beyond all imagination since the start of ages. Spring was her name because she had the single power of transforming all beings and substances of creation so as the spring awakes life and change at its pace. In her immense love, She came to the dusty dwelling of men and knocked on some of their invisible doors. Not every door was selected in every journey; although, all of them would be granted this privilege at the right moment. These visits that the Mother made were called “The Ordinance”.
Act II – Revelation – Apotheoses At Infinitum
Spring awoke the sleepers from their dreams with a magical touch. Other realms and dimensions would appear for them. Past shadows would not obscure their days anymore. They would behold the beautifulness beyond eyes. The awake were called Children. They wrote a book: “The Way – Apotheoses at Infinitum” in which the secrets of Spring were described as well as the path of men. Still today, Revelation is sung but just a few have ears to listen to it:
A simple door in my skyline, now I can see
Behind it, thousands of roads crossing by me
Butterfly men are flying over millions light years
Suns of the future, now battleships in the Star fieldsAncient creatures are whispering secrets into my neon spine
As Eternal caravan they come again and say: hi!
Into the ring of fire a flower bed to my soul,
And the gambling time as a child hidden into a musical boxNow I can feel, now I can touch,
Over this ocean of light,
Through this wall of skies,
So Spring knocks on the door of menRainy Clouds shaped yesterday mornings of life
Spring now brings me the peace of the saints
Invisible void attracts whole world into its web
Evolution’s Schedule wrote a plan for my selfBig Picture looks for shelter into my eyes
Just He expects that I carry his glory inside my heart
A home beyond Earth calls me at last
Now I’m a sailor sailing out of the future pastNow I can see, now I can fly
Over this ocean of light,
Through this wall of the skies
So Spring knocks on the door of menAct III – Heading For Eternity – The Last Journey (Instrumental)
It is said that the Ancient, who were the Children that had reached spiritual profoundness, came to a moment in which they had to depart due to the call of Mother Spring. It was a travel to eternity beatitudes with no return. It is told that there was a place hidden to everyone’s eyes called “The Doorway”. The Ancient would leave from that site while their soul mates would say farewell for they must fulfill their work on Earth. In that last pilgrimage they would be taken by Mother Spring beyond all known horizons to the Cosmic Home. Chronicles state that the last image was a brilliant sparkle and later a soundless disappearance.
Act IV – Seasons For An Alchemist – A Game Beyond Nature (Instrumental)
Before becoming an Ancient, the Children were granted a last period on Earth. During this time they learned the art of alchemy. Their years passed by among invocations, magic and experiments, among unwanted results instantly vanished and deserts bent to gardens; in hundreds of dark thoughts mutated into torrents of light… and lost souls who found the way. So did fade the seasons of the alchemists, quickly, briefly, hazily, almost like a game; nonetheless they, with their labor, helped Mother Spring change the dense dreams of men and in this way these men earned the title of Children.
Act V – Mother Spring – The Way
After the times of alchemy had ended, a huge caravan of souls rose to the highest tops of a perception without explanation, and was taken to the secret sanctuary: “The Doorway”. Mother Spring showed up out of nowhere among the presence of a constellation of new Ancients, put her hand on the human heart flower and took her Children for the final journey over the promised way, beyond all limits to the Cosmic Home.
Here are the final remaining verses, the universal music printed in light on “The Way – Apotheoses at Infinitum”, through them the Ancient offered their last singing to Mother Spring.
She came dressed in rainbow
Great Swan of dreams, Nebula of love
She talked about secrets untold; Universe in her throat,
Beyond the mist of upcoming ages,
She sails on
She saw the mysteries of Life
Goddess of Dawn, Queen of Twilight
She wove the future butterfly body of men
In her heavenly eyes the Master Plan of Earth
She calls; she’s the magic
I’m her server, her ring, her pathPlenty of time has passed since the “The Way – Apotheoses at Infinitum” was written and its stories orally told. The world has changed and many human beings do not honor Mother Spring and their dreams may be quite dark. However, right now that ignorance makes everything seem so confused and that one’s soul wanders with no direction… sit alone for an instant, close your eyes and listen carefully to the silence. Then let it enter smoothly, in a soft whisper Mother Spring is just there knocking on your door.

Flying To The Sun (Díaz – Peraza)
Time has come calling us
to take our mind for everlasting glow
New perception gate we’re going through,
Let behind a dark dreams cocoonIf you’ve waiting for the omen,
Your ride is comingNow, flying to the Sun, singing as one
All who like the light of love
Flying away like butterflies
Over the spring looking for a new state of mindA Journey through our mother soul
Into the garden where all beings are born
We will take a ride across
the universe going for the OneThe age has turned
Spread your wings, it’s the moment -
Cosmic Man (Díaz)
I am a psyche mirror
I’ve been looking into the stars
I am the perpetual change
I’ve been flowing like rivers areI’ve been flying through wonder skies
and walking a mystery path
I’ve been spelling my secret name
just to find me in the ecstasy laughCause´ I am the Cosmic Man
I never sleep looking into everything
I’m breathed on everywhere
I am out of nowhere
I am the nowhere it selfI am the king of time
I’ve been sailing the illusion sea
I am the light inside
I’ve been searching all I could beI was dreamt all from above
looking straight into the Mind Eye
I got the endless love
where all the creatures are aliveCause´ I am the Cosmic Man
I never sleep looking into everything
I’m breathed on everywhere
I am out of nowhere
I am the nowhere it self
