    A beautiful combination between brilliant songwriting and Bach counterpoint/classical guitar. This track boasts acoustic guitars, African handdrums, keyboards, voice, and flute to give a fresh and unique sound unheard of before. Concept 6 combines a deeper spiritual/conceptual statement from the lyrics with advanced theory to present a clear and honest picture of Concept 6 is all about.

    Story Behind the Song
    Just where is the line between helping others for our own gain and helping others
    for Love? In the biblical story, Jesus heals a friend named Lazarus who had suffered from an
    extreme case of death, 4 days running. He knew he had the power to do this, but the point that
    struck me is that he cried with the Lazarus’ family first. Whether you believe the story was
    metaphorical or not is not the point. The act of hurting with someone and restoring someone in the
    proximity of pain and sorrow is my definition of true healing. The first step I have taken towards
    non-visual living is to get out of my bubble and get into the lives of people who need people.

    Lyrics
    Just a cardboard sign and rags, was all that she had
    All she saw was the back of it
    Like no one who met her eyes could understand
    When I saw her standing there with tears in her eyes
    She looked straight into mine
    Like someone ripped out my heart with a knife

    I drop some change and walk away with tears in my eyes
    How I helped was just skin deep
    What she needed was blocked by selfish pride
    Just a dose of sympathy and a little empathy,
    Gives us the ability
    To truly touch a heart and set it free.

    When Tears collide, that's when healing arrives
    Lazarus walked from his grave
    When tears collide, that's when power comes alive
    The spirits of people get saved
