about

Originally written by Carole in 2004 on a soundtracker, this song is finally seeing the light of day. It's heavy, progressive metal that takes quite a few twists and turns until the very end. This song features vocals and a guitar solo by musician John Boyd, as well as background vocals by Carole.

This was a salvage operation. We lost the 24-track master and this temporary stereo mixdown was all we had left to work with. We fixed it up as best we could, but hope to someday record the whole thing again from scratch to get that perfect mix.

lyrics

Lyrics:

EVOLUTION FOR A RESOLUTION

Now can we get to the heart of the matter
You can expand your mind
Then we see if we can work together
We can redeem mankind
Mankind!
Try any maker
Find a reason to be
Signs
Follow one or the other, or choose to stay behind

Race of rats. Right the wrongs of preying cats
Stand. Defend. Look within, you will begin

Can you free your mind, can you see your mind, brother?
Can you see your mind, can you free your mind, sister?
Take a piece of mine and I think you'll find we will be just fine
Give the greed a rest, put it to the test, people
Take a look around at the world we live in
This is all we have, nurture what you're given
