    Buying the album digitally but don't want to miss out on the epic 12-page 12" booklet that comes with the vinyl? Well, you're in luck!

    With Si Mitchell's beautiful album art front and back, the booklet contains literally hundreds and hundreds of photos from the 4 years it took to make this album, handwritten credits for every musician for every song, original lyric sheets and really tells the story of the project - including some awesome art from Emma Smith, Emma Young & Caylynn Adams too.

    Please note:
    1. Whilst these are the same booklet that comes in the Vinyl release, the Vinyl gatefold case has additional photos and writing in as well - if you'd like the full package, the Vinyl is the way to go (and the vinyl comes with a digital release too) :)
    2. Due to their size, the booklets have to be posted in the same packaging that the vinyl come in, so postage costs reflect this.
    3. We hope these booklets to be shipping out around early February, all going well!

lyrics

We been blinded
false information that's been recycled
on so-called news and social sites and
feeling mistreated
we're black and blue yea
we're bruised and beaten
but we the people
won't be defeated
still trying
(for the rights that they will not permit)
fighting
(for the truth that they will not admit)
we'll scream until our lungs are sore

We are enlightened there is something in the air
forgot our differences found common ground we share
we are enlightened eyes are wider we're aware
and now you can't ignore the many represented by the few
when they're standing right in front of you
you've got a lot to answer to!

So much for trying
the faults run deeper
cracks underlying
as walls go up the death tools rise and
hardly surprising
that fear has won out
the joke's turned sour
best friends turned around
right on each other
still trying
(for the rights that they will not permit)
fighting
(for the truth that they will not admit)
we'll scream until our lungs are sore
