Name: Fly Away

Description: I originally recorded this as a "joke" song. I was toying with the idea of including it as a joke on this album as well, but my friend Gary from Jagged Doctrine said we should really do this right. We added two additional verses and had Gary rap on the 3rd one. I really love how this turned out. It also has a major gospel feel to it without sounding out of place on the album.

lyrics

Fly Away

Oh yeah!
Since the beginning of time, man has wanted to fly
And soar with the wind like a birdie in the sky
Then one day in the twinkling of an eye
Gonna leave this world, see ya later, buh bye!

CHORUS 1
I’ll Fly Away, oh Glory!,
I’ll Fly Away

Are ya with me?
I ain’t got no wings, I don’t got a jet
But when Jesus comes back you can certainly bet
I could be walkin’ on the street, or sittin’ in my chair
No matter where I am, I’m gunna meet ‘im in the air.
If He doesn’t come back before my final day
It doesn’t really matter what anybody say
I’m gonna fly on up to that Heavenly place
And see my Lord, face to face.

REPEAT CHORUS 1

CHORUS 2
I’ll Fly Away, oh Glory!
I’ll Fly Away
When I die Hallelujah by and by
I’ll Fly Away

Some bright morning when this life is o’er yeah
I’ll fly away
To that home on God’s celestial shore, yeah
I’ll fly away

CHORUS 1

I’ll Drop the beat, and rise from my seat
I’m both escaping and bringing the heat
Just like a phoenix rising from the flames
My soul is proving its losing it’s chains
It may be the end, but I’m really just startin
I’m a death row inmate with a last minute pardon
I’m not sweating or fretting this earthly grave
When I’m finished dying, you know I’ll fly away

Monochrome
by Scandroid

This album has some serious 80's love going on and is a side project of Klayton, the genius behind Celldweller and Circle Of Dust. Midiboy

This is one of the first synthpop bands I ever got into, and this album is by far their best album and among my favorite synthpop albums of all time. Highly recommend this one! Midiboy

Alpha and Omega (1999)
by Azimuth A.D.

This album right here....so good. It has a 70s vibe to it and yet has a slight electronic folk sound as well, but yet also modern. I love the singer's voice. She's so easy to listen to! Midiboy

Fans of hard rock I think will really appreciate this album. It has a familiar sound that one would swore they've heard while listening to the radio. But yet the message and the presentation I would argue are unique. I also love the renditions of "Agnus Dei" and "Turn your eyes." The arrangements are beautiful. Some parts of this album even gave me some "Phil Collins" vibes. This album does not shy away from its Gospel message which I do respect. I highly recommend giving it a listen! josiah05
