Are You Aware

Are You Aware (Psych Folk RUaWear)

Rejyna performs Are You Aware (RUaWear) from her live solo CD "Solo Sojourn" [www.cdbaby.com/cd/rejyna] at Espresso Yourself Music Café, a song she also contributed to the Citadel CD's ~ but here Rejyna is putting a solo spin on the piece using a DigiTech Vocalist Live 3 for harmonies triggered from her Ovation and ATM73a headset mike. As her lyrics below show, this song is about reaching out to others, caring about yourself and the world around you. Spelling out the word 'Aware' and encouraging the listener to "stand strong on your ground", Rejyna uses the mellow whisper-like bridge to expand upon her message of edification.

Rejyna comments, "I cram practically my whole life mantra into the bridge of this song because I want others to be encouraged by the unique contribution they can make to themselves and those around them simply by becoming more aware, and choosing to see life through with as much fortitude and honor as possible. Sappy and mushy? Sure, you could call it that. But I call it a gentle nudge to believe in sharing in the path of humanity"

The video quality is as good as could be obtained in the low light with two different types of cameras but at least the board mix from EMYC's MixMaster Ben Ahlteen is good!

LYRICS to Psych Folk RUAWEAR:

Seems as though there's moments
when there's no one there to share
Life is only open to the ones who are aware
To the ones who are aware
Are you aware?

Some find situations
when there's no one there to know
Open up your heart and let your feel for friendship show
Find someone to know, find someone to know

When You Seek What You're Sending
You Know You'll Have What You Need

A - Is for the Action that we need to change the scene
W - For Wanting Words Which Work With What We mean
A - Again allows us to Accentuate our style
R - Is for our Reason Reaching out to share a smile
E - Is for Emotion

When You Know What You're Here For
Extending An Open Hand
When You Feel What You Go For
How Can You Help But Make A Stand?

Inside of your mind
Fear not what you may find
Raise your confidence
Gain experience
Seek the positive
Share the awareness
Avoid the careless
Strengthen your faith
Gather fresh breath
And when you awake
Stand strong on your ground
Fix what you break
Share what you've found

Seems as though there's moments
ticking out of our control
Paradise awaits those who take heart in helping souls
Show you care by growing old
Life is only ours to hold
