If man remembered all he'd forgotten, this world would be a lot different.

Heal
Words and music by Tim Bravo
It's about live and let live.
It's about bringing out your dead inside.
About try to find another way
Cause this one is tired
And we're not just fine.
You're bleeding out
And I'm sore.
(I need you to see)
We can't do this anymore.
Don't you think it's about time
To find some place to heal?
Make some space and just breathe a while
And try to decide where we go from here.
It's about finding some grace.
It's about learning how to forgive ourselves.
About being our own second coming
And putting an end to this hell.
We've all got our scars
From fighting their wars
(I need you to see)
I won't fight you anymore.
Don't you think it's about time
To find some place to heal?
Make some space and just breathe a while
And try to decide where we go from here.

I Am
Words and music by Tim Bravo
Allow me to introduce myself:
My name is Bravo. I'll lead, if you follow.
Won't make you read between the lines too many times.
I'll give it to you straight.
(My truth. No lies. No fear. No hate)
So I'll say what I feel today.
Might make you uneasy, put you in a rage.
It's only when we're uncomfortable
That the world ever seems to change.
I am here to speak my mind.
I'll only speak the truth I find.
I am a living story, riding on the edge of time.
I Am That I Am,
And I know I am not alone.
If I could have a moment of your time...
Where are you, sisters? Speak to me, brothers.
I am a part of us all, never apart from it All.
I see the lie (And you can't kill what never dies)
I stand beside you for a brand new day.
We're sick of waiting. Let's get to creating.
We think and choose as we see it,
And we all came here to be it,
And put the lie away.
I am here to speak my mind.
I'll only speak the truth I find.
I am the tip of the iceberg
Pushing through the other side.
I Am That I Am
And I know I am not alone.
I am alot like you, even if I don't want to see it.
You are alot like me, even if you don't want to be it.
I am here to speak my mind.
I'll only speak the truth I find.
I am a living story, riding on the edge of time.
I Am That I Am,
And I know I am not alone.
I am not alone.

New phone with Blogger app
So my Blackberry died last Friday night during our set at the Lizard Lounge. Seriously, it worked when I put it on the amp. After the set, not so much.
Since a replacement Blackberry cost the same as a brand new Android...You can guess which way I went! Now I have an app for posting to Blogger and can shoot 720p video and upload it directly to YouTube. Oh and did i mention it has speak to text?
All i have to do is hit a little microphone icon and i can just say my blog no typing! And that's exactly how i input this section of this blog post. too coo!
I think Timmay might just be blogging (and vlogging) more often.
Incidentally, the reason I posted this blog was only 50% to brag about the new phone. The other 50% was to test out the app!

A sneak peek at "I Am"
Here's a sneak peek at my debut track "I Am". I've spliced together the first 15 seconds, another section from the middle of the song, and another 15 seconds from the end.
Bear in mind the single guitar is a scratch track and the drums are barely edited - not mixed! This is rough as rough gets, kids - but I thought I'd post it for those of you who keep asking me where "I Am" on this project.
Click the link at the top of this post...and enjoy!

I Am...A Drummer?
Tuesday night I did something I've never done. I recorded drums for a rock song. All sorts of euphemisms come to mind here: uncharted territory, unfamiliar waters, marching to the beat of...wait, not that one.
It was definitely a novel experience in the true meaning of the phrase. I've played drums, sure - but I've never played an entire song through. I've never played drums knowing I was being recorded; a whole different kind of pressure. And I've certainly never played drums to a click track before! Ask any drummer who's done it (any drummer who's recorded, pretty much), it ain't easy. Sort of distracting, actually.
The name of the song is "I Am", and it will be my debut release as an independent solo artist. Because of that - and because the song is about introducing the new me to the world - I decided all the writing, all the arranging, and all the musical performance should be done by me. I'll edit, mix, and master the track myself, too.
Because who "I Am" is constantly changing. Look at me now. "I Am" a drummer!
