"Recorded this the morning of election day 2020, not knowing the results, needing to find and share some peace. Take some deep breaths out there everybody ~"

lyrics

You are welcome in this world, no matter your points in the game. The flowers are wilted, the basket is tilted, by kings who don't even play. // You know all those greedy hands will empty and fold in the grave. Ashes to ashes so follow the flashes of lighting bugs calling for rain. // There's a fire in this world. A coal barge burnin' up stream. There's justice denied, too much fear, suicide, people sayin' there's no time for dreams. // You are welcome in this world, no matter your points in the game. You are welcome in this world ~

Honest & uninhibited, Ben's guitar and voice move effortlessly and unreservedly from sweet to insistent to ecstatic. No posturing, no pretense. His heart is wide-open here -- as in youth. jobo3208
