One Soul 04:37
Do you feel like you're running? Gotta stop, let the feelings flood in Space to breathe. Space to move. At your pace find your groove. Cuz there are people out there Who don't- they don't care! And there are people in your life Bound to cause you strife. But don't worry about that Because I got your back. I got your back. There is ONE SOUL to feel. What do you want it to be? There is ONE SOUL to feed. What do you want it to be? Exodus, Modern Day Exodus. And we will walk on the shore, Into the sun going down And the sky is orange. Exodus, Modern Day Exodus. Today is the day to make change. Make Change. Be Change. Love Change. One Soul. One Soul.

Peel Away 03:38
Can I deliver this river Of blood through my veins To eliminate the sediments Of old weathered pains I got to peel away the unnecessary I got to peel away the unnecessary The power and the current state of my mind Will determine the duration of the rest of my life It's that serious- I know you're curious and if you ask The answer's no With my conviction is this restriction To conceive, receive the ebb and flow I got to peel away the unnecessary I got to peel away the unnecessary And it's going to save me! It's got to save me! Cuz I've got too much to lose And I've got too much to do I've got to save myself from you And it all depends on what I choose Revelation to revolution Til it stares me in the face To assimilate and facilitate Me a saving grace I got to peel away the unnecessary I got to peel away the unnecessary And it's going to save me! It's got to save me! Cuz I've got too much to lose And I've got too much to do I've got to save myself from you And it all depends on what I choose It all depends on what I choose

In my dreams I was alone and going against the grain In a world where a man could force ya to be his dame And there was no light and the winds were cold I was trapped up in a room- held back by fear Held back by my own hold Asleep for hours, wrapped more in snow And in a dress that was too long for me Draping on the floor Running for something, untying more and more Of what's sewn inside of me How can I make it out the door? It's time that I rise from these ashes Instead of stirring the coals It's time that I rise from these ashes Instead of stirring the coals Passengers riding along with me Hiding from something I seem to be Slowing myself with a stubbornness Of a pit bull's jaw And I trip up on the gown I was born in Would I be sinning if I ripped it off Stood there naked and raw Exposed in the cold with this fire Burning in me lord! I will stay warm as long as I leave The place where I was born! Exposed in the cold with this fire Burning in me lord! I will stay warm as long as I leave The place where I was born! It's time that I rise from these ashes Instead of stirring the coals It's time that I rise from these ashes Instead of stirring the coals

Same To You 05:19
Come in from the cold Wrap yourself up in light tonight And there's so much we don't need to know That's not what we're here for tonight Oh, we may let the scroll unroll Or wring out the towel Share a thought or two You owe me nothing And I owe the same to you Same to you There's a river between us We walk carefully not to slip in And there's something so familiar Yet something so distant Oh, we may let the scroll unroll Or ring out the towel Share a laugh or two You owe me nothing And I owe the same to you Same to you We let the sunrise in As I wake before I go to sleep And the water it tastes so sweet But I just can't get in that deep Oh, we may let the scroll unroll Or ring out the towel Share a fear or two You owe me nothing And I owe the same to you Same to you Go on, now go. Go- we know nothing. Now I said go! Go! Go! We know nothing! Go! Go! Go! And take your mystery with you

Tilt 04:48
Spider webs sinking in In your head you been livin' Sweep it on out- sweep it from within All you're projectin' It's the feelings that arise When I enter in your eyes Bringing up old disdain But you pinned it on the wrong name Ain't my name Now that you hear my voice on the radio play Curse me the cause of your unhappiness Never mention my name again And like me- your problems will go away It's the trust that's lackin' The passive aggression- the petty attackin' Don't you know we're always winning The games we are inventin', yea. It's the feelings that arise When I enter in your eyes Bringing up old disdain But you pinned it on the wrong name Ain't my name Now that you hear my voice on the radio play Shadow the shame of your own pettiness Never mention my name again And like me- your problems will go away Now that you hear my voice on the radio play Curse me the cause of your unhappiness Never mention my name again And like me- your problems will go away Watch what you say now!

Saliva caught in the back of my throat Only if I could choke down what you said to me today I ain't got no season to reinforce your reason On why you think my love would just waste you away My life right now is like smoking an empty pipe Let your the light burn your lips as you inhale What don't exist- can my life get much more Hopeless than this- I don't know Maybe I should wait til tomorrow So now whatchyou gonna do When she don't come for you Lord knows no kinda love Is going to save you I just wish that I had something Better to do than to sit around thinking Bout where I went wrong with you Oh what a scene when life can be so clean It brings you to the right spot at the right time But only when you're not searching for it I threw out my rope It produced no hope You just choked my hope And when I pulled back You let go of the grip you didn't have from the Get Go I'm so glad I let go So now whatchyou gonna do When she don't come for you Lord knows no kinda love Is going to save you I just wish that I had something Better to do than to sit around thinking Bout where I went wrong with you So now whatchyou gonna do When she don't come for you Lord knows no kinda love Is going to save you I'm glad that I had nothing better to do Than to sit around writing this little Old song for you Round in circles. You had me round in circles.

here it goes again i set myself a trap i was bound to get caught in i see clearly now guilt tied to my wrists tight and its a weight that just don't feel right what can i say? is it a shame or just a game that we are playing this way? well, we're too close. it's too close to tell. Oh, I'm running on empty and I know I've got to keep on pushing, pushing til I get there The race has started- the rivers parted They say the end is always near And its amaizng what you can manifest When you got yourself at best or when you really care When you enter in a circle That you draw for yourself You're gonna feel those vibes Like they're all in disguise They smile and wave As they pass messages Through their eyes But its too quick to catch You're intuitive to their toss And in the end well you know Or at least you hope that it Ain't no big loss Oh, I'm running on empty and I know I've got to keep on pushing, pushing til I get there The race has started- the rivers parted They say the end is always near And its amaizng what you can manifest When you got yourself at best or when you really care I was afraid to feel loved But i didn't want to lose ya I was ashamed to say that i was on my way love Cuz i didn't want to hurt ya And i know that wasn't fair love Wish i could change my choices back there There's a lesson in every corner, i swear I wanna hurry up an heal But it just don't happen that ay Time slows me down And i just don't know what to say (Look out!) So i look out the window What do i see? Is it you looking back at me Maybe its just the highway- it's hard to say Oh- it could be the ocean Oh I'm running on empty and I know I've got to keep on pushing, pushing til I get there The race has started- the rivers parted They say the end is always near And its amazing what you can manifest When you got yourself at best or when you really care When you really care When you really care When you really care (When you care!) When you really care

it's one thing to be clear and quite another to be headstrong. there's nothing you won't do to change direction when your path is wrong. well take hold harness. make the best, get the best with what your given. it wont make no sense now but soon it will. i have fallen then i just got up. i kept on walkin', couldn't see how i was still so caught up. i thought that i was fine. didn't wanna read between my lines. where black blurs with white and day makes love tonight. and this road it will be long if you are headstrong. what is it that you're afraid of? is it what you dot know about yourself or is it that you know all about it? too proud to put your pride back upon the shelf. it wont make no sense now but soon it will. i have fallen then i just got up. i kept on walkin', couldn't see how i was still so caught up. i thought that i was fine. didn't wanna read between my lines. where black blurs with white and day makes love tonight. and this road it will be long if you are headstrong. roll with what life gives you. there's no reason or realization when you try and fight it. go cuz you'll pull through. face your fears- face it all and move on despite it. it wont make no sense now but soon it will. it wont make no sense now but i'm hoping it will. and this road will be long if you are headstrong and this road it will be long if you choose to be headstrong through all of this. you're the only one that holds you back, you see. reverence- responsibility. can't be so headstrong if what you want is for your mind to breathe.

Great Spirit 04:15
Great Spirit drive me And I call in sight for those that don’t see Let go let go let go grip loosen loosen loosen release And I hear it Deep down inside of me And I call in healing in our emotional body And strip away stickiness expectations of happiness Let’s resonate like instruments If you can put it down be here with me How to stay open when you are cold How to stay warm when you feel closed Transform this beautiful pain Into compassion into compassion Cool me like rain Acceptance Guidance 2x I accept and I dance 2x I call in fire to burn limitations restrictions May they fall and crumble Turn to ashes to nourish our soul To nourish my soil To nourish our soil Uncoil Let go let go let go grip loosen loosen loosen release

To all the angels, alive and dead Thank you for saving my life And the lives of all of my friends Why haven’t I crossed over yet? I see that I still have so much to do On this planet With so many chances given I take not for granted Through each chance given I am closer yet I should have been gone A long time before But the angels would not Let me pass through the door I see now what they are fighting for The lovers and the dreamers Are needed here more I feel it on a cellular level I will not bury me with your shovel You can try, you can try But I will not hide All of my friends that crossed over They are my wings now I feel them all flying free now They are my teachers They are my teachers I will not cross over yet I live my life with no regret My medicine you will ne’er forget Because my love is worth more than death Oh I sing for my life! You can try, you can try But I will not hide I will not hide (c) written by Carmen Marie Gutierrez aka Mama Crow All rights reserved 2009

Chapter 2

Indigo .:. The Threshold and Initiation

Moving from New York to the Bay Area, CA, Carmen Gutierrez continued to share her songs on guitar. She connected with creativity communities and learned how to network and build herself as an independent artist. Going from the coffee shops to bigger stages with packed houses. She started from zero and had so much to learn, primarily being a solo artist and beginning to play with great musicians and starting her first bands. She absorbed as much information as she could and began going by the name MAMA CROW, simply because it was easier for people to remember. She began to expand herself as a songwriter, band leader and budding producer. After 6 short months, this album was birthed out of SERA PHI studios in San Francisco, CA, where she embarked on crossing the threshold in this creative initiation.
