Express

Skirmish: The 32nd Page (@gruvmachine)

Liner Notes

#acousticonetake #funk The Light Seer’s Tarot Guidebook, page 32 is about the Chariot card. In reading the narrative, what jumped out at me was the way the Chariot card was equivalent to the word “express” in two different meanings. First, the universe was giving you a chance to be a better expression of your essential nature. Second, the forward movement of the express train can be seen as the industrial-age equivalent of the chariot. I set out to write a song based on these ideas. At skirmish time, this is one verse and chorus. +8 hours: Added verse 2 to the lyrics.

Lyrics

Express yourself To get it right Express your light Be yourself be you Keep it true To you know who

Get it You know what to say Say yes Get it Take it away On the express

Keep it steady now In the groove On the move You can bring it on The only one Take the money and run

Get it You know what to say Say yes Get it Take it away On the express

You recording gets stuck at 5sec, at least for me. Repost it? The printed lyrics express the card well, though
