Concept

Karma reloaded is about the boundaries that the cosmic order imposes to our willpower and ability to manifest. Its all about those love energies that have been lost and the struggle to understand the ‘’why’’ behind a painful separation or an unrequited love. Is the flame bound to extinguish when the Karma is reloaded?

PRAYING IN GENEVA

In the endless sea of souls, I was born
In the rhythmic dance of existence
Unaware of what I used to be
Beware of what I should become
As I tried like the Fool to navigate through the storms,
No one has been on my side,
No one will receive the hero’s welcome
And I was praying in Geneva
For sins that I committed in other times…
****
And I will go round and round in this infinite circle
Of pain and despair,
Of lessons learnt in darkness,
Of beauty that fades with the memories,
Of dreams that cherish my soul.
****
In this circle of life and death..
Of death and life….

THE KNIGHTS DREAM

The Knight has fallen in the battle of thoughts
Another day of silent mourn
Who prays for our souls?
The clock is ticking more rapidly now
no one could see that he is on his own
wounded by ten swords

****

And I was coming to rescue the truth
Those dreams that made the purpose of youth
I have not understood
And I was coming to rescue myself
The abyss staring at me to the end
No more walls to defend

****

The sky has opened now for me
Deceptions rise and fall from within
My mortal disease
The Knight has fallen in the battle of thoughts
Another day of silent mourn
Who prays for our souls?

****

And I was coming to rescue the truth
Those dreams that made the purpose of youth
I have not understood
And I was coming to rescue myself
The abyss staring at me to the end
No more walls to defend

****

And when there was some time of relief
He ended asking himself what’s the need
of this chivalry
And when there was some time of despair
He ended asking himself what’s the seed
of his misery

****

The Knight has taken the pathway to dark
and I remember the glory of youth
I was living in a dream
And I confronted the demons of soul
in a relentless fight for love
I was living a dream
I just believed in a dream
A false dream

FALSE SPRING

Spirit and soul, I stand my defeat
Time now to retreat
I was alone carrying the flame
What I loved was in vain
And I realized when sunset has come
All my efforts have gone

****

And there is always a way to go on
Standing before those dreams that have been untold
Where to devote those tears of our own?
A brand new day is downing or truth is dethroned

****

I learned the game, this false interplay
Of fake pleasures and pain
I was alone, carrying the flame
What I loved was in vain
And I realized when sunset has come
All my efforts have gone

****

And there is always a way to go on
Standing before those dreams that have been untold
Where to devote those tears of our own?
A brand new day is downing or truth is dethroned?

 

FUNFAIR OF SOULS

What is true what is worth,

Is the question I ask in this state of this internal war,
As irrational fear is coming and tortures my mind

Is this place I belong? Or I just found a shelter to rest my hard-burdened soul,

And your eyes signify the truth of a final goodbye…

What I did that was wrong and the dream that I was living have just disappeared at once

As you turned against me like the worst
Of the nightmares that waited to come…

****

What is true what is worth

Is the question I ask in this state of this internal war
As irrational fear is coming and tortures my mind…

What I did that was wrong and the dream that I was living have just disappeared at once

As you turned against me like the worst
Of the nightmares that waited to come…

****

I failed in my mind, I found my demise,
As I thought that you could have been mine,
I asked for forgiveness but everything kept us apart

My spirit was drowned, my soul has been sunk
As the universe played its part

In a desperate attempt of reaching your soul and finding the warmth of your Sun…

of reaching your soul and finding the warmth of your Sun…

HUMAN STATE

Get a pause from the fight
And redeem what is left from inside
Take a breath from the race
The horizon is turning to vividly red
Take a seat in the Feast
no exceptions are made let’s get fight the Beast
Take the flags in the air
maybe They do not know that the suffering ends..

****

Let’ drink for the feelings of grace
Let’s drink for the failures we had
Let’s sing for the moments of glory
Let’s sing for the springs that will come

****

Looking back at the times
The lost meaning of ruins that are battered there
There is cause to believe
There is beauty that no one has dared to conceive..
Take a seat in the Feast
No exceptions are made, let’s get fight the Beast
Take the flags in the air
maybe They do not know we will rise again..

****

Let’ drink for the feelings of grace
Let’s drink for the failures we had
Let’s sing for the moments of glory
Let’s sing for the springs that will come

****
Let’ sing for the feelings of grace
Let’s sing for the failures we had
Let’s sing for the love that is waiting
Let’s sing for the springs that will come….

****

Let’ sing for the feelings of grace
Let’s sing for the failures we had
Let’s sing for the love that is waiting
Let’s sing for the springs that will come…

Let’ dance for the feelings of grace
Let’s dance for the failures we had
Let’s dance for the love that is waiting
Let’s dance for the springs that will come….

 

MAGIC SPELL

Embrace the dark
Living with tears
To a powerless state
Revive all the fears,
I close my eyes
To feel the silence
Of a mystery beyond belief
I fantasize
A love without limits
And depression that drives me within

****

Is there a light
To deliver the hope
That was promised to end all this grief?

****

Humans of Fall
Artists unknown
To the circle of life
That goes on and on…
Where can we find
the fountains of youth
And a reason to fight, to fight for the truth!
I close my eyes
To feel the silence
Of a mystery beyond belief
I fantasize
A love without limits
And depression that drives me within

****

Is there a light
To deliver the hope
That was promised to end all this grief
Is there a dream
To connect to ourselves
And the power that lies within?

****

I close my eyes
To hear the silence
Of a mystery beyond belief
Is there a light
To deliver the hope
That was promised to end all this grief?
Who is going to save
The poets of shame
And their muddled perception of things?
And this is me..

 

THE PRICE

In the rhythm of life
My emotions have stalled
That’s the way to the fall
Set the stage for a fight
For a meaningless cause
No delight in that war

****

I looked up to the stars to find out what is wrong
Is this true what I live?
And the dust start to settle from the ruins of Rome
My soul listen to this:
‘’I end in defeat’’
And I ask myself who is taking the lead
I manage to safeguard the flames within
What a price to pay
To hold your beliefs

****

In the rhythm of life
Can we save the last dance?
Let love glances to come…
Set the stage for a fight
For a meaningless cause
No delight in that war

I was painting a dream from the stories of love
Is this true what I see?
And Atlantis is calling the poets from above
My soul listen to this:
‘’And let’s start the beat’’
And I ask myself who is taking the lead
I manage to safeguard the flames within
What a price to pay
To hold your beliefs

****

I fainted in silence I fainted with grief
And I ask myself who is taking the lead
I manage to safeguard the flames within
What a price to pay
To hold your beliefs!
I fainted in silence I fainted with grief
And I ask myself is this the defeat?
I manage to safeguard the flames within
What a price to pay to live in your skin!

 

EIGHT OF CUPS

In the silence
Only memories left to admire
And the sorrow
Takes the place of the deepest and vivid desires…
I was searching for the love that would fulfill my soul
And I ended
In the pain that requires the most ultimate toll

****

I walk on my own
No glimmer of hope

****

What is left now,
Is a glance of the shadows of past
In the distance
A false picture of a dreamy and lost promised land
I was searching for the love that would fulfill my soul
And I ended
In the pain that requires the most ultimate toll

****

I walk on my own
No glimmer of hope

****

And the Sun will rise and force its true rays down on me…
The most valuable things to admit
And the picture of love will fade as a candle in the wind
All the mysteries will be revealed…

****

I walk on my own
No glimmer of hope
Those feelings of loss
No help from Above
I walk on my own
In this Appian Road
Those feelings of loss
No glimmer of hope
And I am on my own
In this Appian road..

KARMIC REMEMBERANCE

Voices and rumors surround me
I have kept my thoughts and my instincts awake
The glimmering shadows are coming
Nothing at all, but the darkness prevails
I made all the prayers to the Divine
No answer and still agonizing thoughts,
I tried to reach you in whole different lives
And still always pain and still no remorse

****

And I will hold till the end
In this pitiful state
And I will hold till the end
Flowers are fading away
This wheel ever turns?
To raise the dead?

****

What I feel now is so useless
Thoughts of despair mixed with numerous hopes
Could I find some moment of relief
what I ‘ve done still haunts me the days to come
I made all the prayers to the Divine
No answer and still agonizing thoughts,
I tried to reach you in whole different lives
And still always pain and still no remorse

****

And I will hold till the end
In this pitiful state
And I will hold till the end
Flowers are fading away
This wheel ever turns?
To raise the dead?

****

Voices and rumors surround me
I have kept my thoughts and my instincts awake…

****

And I will hold till the end
In this pitiful state
and I will hold till the end
Flowers are fading away
This wheel ever turns?
To raise the dead?

 

DANCE IN THE LIGHT

Nothing seems alright
Too much confusion clouding my mind
Never-ending fight
I painted all the dreams
The colors of Spirit that lies within
Bad council to a King!

****

We dance in the light
We fight all our demons, still live in the night
Will this ever end?
Another dimension for the living dead

****

Oh, we dance in the light
Fight the demons inside…

 

JUDGEMENT

Over the hills,
The souls floating all over the tops of the mystical seas
In the rivers of life and beyond
Oceans of light,
Angels coming to show us the way to the eternal Self
And there is no time left to regret

****

Open the gates,
Open the doors to the Higher State, away from this hell
These are the words to be said…

****

Lost in ourselves,
Lost in the darkness we hated but ended to be our best friend,
All the karmic connections are there?
What takes to pray?
To petition some light to warm us as the sun fades away,
Where is nothing left to betray

****

Open the gates,
Open the doors to the higher state, away from this hell
These are the words to be said
Open the doors to the boundless love we have meant to be made,
This is the Judgment we crave…
