As with the rest of The Lost Mystique Of Being In The Know, the band’s ninth studio album, “Silver” was recorded during an intense period. It was the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as serious civil unrest that swept over the country over issues of police brutality and political division.
My Silver Lining Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don’t want to wait anymore
I’m tired of looking for answers
Take me some place where there’s music and there’s laughter
I don’t know if I’m scared of dying
But I’m scared of living too fast, too slow
Regret, remorse, hold on, oh no I’ve got to go
There’s no starting over
No new beginnings time races on
And you’ve just gotta keep on keeping on
Gotta keep on going
Looking straight out on the road
Can’t worry ’bout what’s behind you
Or what’s coming for you further up the road
I try not to hold on to what is gone
I try to do right what is wrong
I try to keep on keeping on
Yeah, I just keep on keeping on
[Chorus]
I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I’ve made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won’t take the easy road
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo
Oh-oh
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo
Oh-oh
[Verse 2]
I’ve woken up in a hotel room
My worries as big as the moon
Having no idea who or what or where I am
Something good comes with the bad
A song’s never just sad
There’s hope, there’s a silver lining
Show me my silver lining
Show me my silver lining
[Chorus]
I hear a voice calling
Calling out for me
These shackles I’ve made in an attempt to be free
Be it for reason, be it for love
I won’t take the easy road
I won’t take the easy road
The easy road, the easy road, oh-oh!
I won’t take the easy road
The easy road, the easy road, oh-oh!
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo
Oh-oh
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo
Oh-oh
“Medicine” is a song-anthem honoring the traditions of folk medicine; plant-based medicine as a tool for empowerment and healing. It is a call to action to support the voices of the herbalists, healers, and teachers… the roots, plants, trees, and stones… the arts, the spirits, and the wild ones. It is an honoring of all the many ways that we can be well, and the radical and traditional ways in which we can steward health within ourselves.
This song is a direct tribute to the people around the world who are holding and teaching these ways of herbal plant-based medicine, educating us all to know our gardens, our forests, our plants and our own bodies… to bring wellness back into our own hands and communities. It is not a dismissal of modern medicine, but a gratitude and honoring of its ancestry and foundations within folkloric traditions.
As we are moving into a new season, a new time, and a new chapter, we offer this song as a ritual anthem for this transition and time of great change. ” ~ Rising Appalachia

Cannabis & CBD is GOD’s Healing Plant — also proving to kill CONvid! With ZERO HUMAN DEATHS since mankind, IT IS STILL NOT FDA APPROVED. 💥👀💥
Cannabidiol (CBD) from the cannabis plant has potential to prevent and inhibit SARS-CoV-2 infection — direct from the US National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health website! https://t.me/drue86/11718
Cannabis was suppressed by the medical industrial complex — because it WORKS https://t.me/drue86/12051
N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) is an incredible antioxidant with numerous health benefits. It may help with mood disorders, sleep, infections, and inflammation. NAC protects the brain, gut, kidneys, liver, and lungs. It helps with most states of increased oxidative stress, which underlie chronic health problems. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

The more we are well, the more we have capacity and are resilient in the face of change. As someone who believes deep change is at play on our planet right now, being well and knowing how to navigate ourselves has become more important than ever. Perhaps this piece can provide one small way of feeding our wellness.
Music can have a power that almost seems magical. It can lift moods, tell a story, bring tears, or spread a message. It’s a medium that has an ability to touch us on powerful levels.
Music has been a part of cultures all over the world since some of the earliest times in human history. Historically, it is believed that music may have been around even before humans could speak. Animal bones, wood, and rocks may have been used as early instruments according to some historians. Of course, the human voice was used as well, but it may not have been based around words at first.
Native Africans and Native Americans both used music in the form of chanting for their rituals and healing ceremonies. In Ancient Greece, music was used to ease stress, soothe pain, and help with sleeping patterns. Many have said music heals the soul, and today science helps us understand how these early intuitions were indeed correct.
When I think to my education and training in nervous system health and trauma, the research I will present below paints a picture of how listening to music, learning it, and ‘tuning’ into something we love helps to regulate our nervous system. A regulated nervous system is often a big part of what brings about health benefits, including what we’ll discuss below.
The vagus nerve is part of the parasympathetic portion of our nervous system. It is a crucial biological part to how we find safety, joy, connection, and well-being as humans.
As the most evolved portion of our nervous system, the vagus nerve connects to many of our crucial organs, gut, eyes, heart, face, vocal cords, ears and more. Thus, singing can activate our vagus nerve, ‘tickling’ the part of our nervous system that triggers our bodies to acknowledge safety and connection – which of course feels good.
There’s also no doubt that frequencies coming from music can also activate the vagus nerve, this may be one of the primary ways in which sound healing functions.
In speaking to others and in my own experience, I feel like those of us that started the journey a while back, are now being held in a holding pattern. There is a sense of lack of movement, a feeling of being kept waiting, perhaps for others to catch up?
We seem to have reached a point where we are no longer unwilling participants but rather spectators of the chaotic show.
We have reached a certain perspective, a deeper understanding and an inner knowing, that is allowing us to watch it all unfold without getting sucked into it.
After the anger, the frustration, the rage, the exasperation, the fear, the distress, the heartache, the indignation, and the horror that we have felt in the last four years, we are now strangely overcome by a sense of calmness that we had never felt before.
Individually we’ve done what we had to do, the choices were made, the steps were taken, the transformation is well underway and we will continue to evolve spiritually, but now from a different place, with a greater level of awareness and a clearer sense of what is to come.
The end game is near, this distortion of God’s creation is crumbling down as we speak, we are watching it unfold and it’s forcing humanity to wake up.
Those of us that have been shining our light for some time, are now on a holding pattern waiting for more to join, so that together we can become the light that finally chases the darkness away.
It’s now just a matter of time. How long it will be, is anyone’s guess, but they say patience is a virtue. The important thing to keep in mind, is that however it may look, we’ve already won.
We’ve suffered enough, so let’s try to enjoy the calmness of the holding pattern until everyone that signed up for this ride, is ready to land in the new reality.
🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
You know that feeling when stress creeps up, and suddenly you feel a bit anxious, fidgety, on alert, your heart rate speeding up, and your breath shallow?
Our world and lives can feel overwhelming… but it doesn’t have to…
In this episode, I explore how we can stay grounded, generally happy, and embodied during our chaotic times. I do so by exploring our autonomic nervous system and its role in how we feel and see the world.
I go over some techniques you can use right now for building capacity and resilience in life while still engaging with the world and society.
