Worship Song 05:12
Lift your hands Lift your heart Lift your eyes Lift your self ` Worship your friends Worship your foes Worship your dog Worship your toes Worship your cat Worship your home Worship your boss Worship Jerome Bless on your blessings Praise on your praise Pray for your pleasure And glory always Bless on your blessings Praise on your praise Pray for your pleasure All of your days Worship your mom Worship your dad Worship my dad Worship your love Worship yourself Worship the sky Worship your gods And worship our lives Turn to your friend and look them in the eyes but not for too long because we’re not trying to make anyone feel uncomfortable but at the same time imagine that they're Buddha, Allah, Jesus Christo, Joseph Smith, Marshall Applewhite or whoever. Exalt them - whoa, that’s pretty intense - you probably don’t like that. I’m not worthy of your praise. Because we’ve been told to make ourselves small. Lessen ourselves before something greater. So be a little sacreligious, a little pagan, a little secular tonight. Hopefully, we don’t cause too many friend rifts over this intense level of emotional vulnerability. And maybe take out your phone and turn on that selfie mode and push that little boomerang button. Say hello to that broadcasted reflection in the mirror. Because that’s what it is ya know, a modern version of an age-old inanimate object that allows us to stare deep inside of ourselves. Selfies have been around for a long time, they’ve just never been so permanent. Now gaze lustfully into your own eyes - fall in love with yourself - or, it doesn’t have to be romantic, maybe it's more like that Greek Phileo, sisterly, brotherly sort of thing. Philadelphia. That’s what you are - an individuated city, a complex world of emotional highways crisscrossing neighborhoods of chaos - sometimes you’re speeding fast down the road (but hopefully not texting) and sometimes you have to make a u-turn where it’s illegal. Sometimes you hit traffic, you get in accidents, and sometimes you’re singing at the top of your lungs. And you don’t care who’s watching. Throughout history people have been doing this - Creating beliefs. Things that keep them going. So create a new belief, a religion of one. Cult is all around us anyways. And you don’t care who’s watching. And you don’t care who’s watching. And you don’t care who’s watching. Bless on your blessings Praise on your praise Pray for your pleasure And glory always ….All of your days. Worship your worship your worship your worship

This song was originally written whilst Ryan O'Keefe and I were slain in the spirit. Later it was added to and adapted for a full band setting with my friends Swan Real and Cheryl Siecker.
