Outside is Cold (view and read)


JANSET - OUTSIDE IS COLD

Lyrics:

Now the summers gone
The outside is cold
On the inside I’m warm, 
I’m strong
I’m not worrying as much
I still break down and cry when I hear certain songs
I’m the one who puts them on 
I guess I know what I’m doing
I just wanna feel wrong
I just wanna feel something
that’ll make me feel something..
Its all connected, eyes closed.. I listen to the song
And it’s been so long, since I let myself go 
since I let myself know..
they must all be naturals
I can never tell when they’re putting on a show 
I guess I question my mind
‘cus we all know so much but what is it we really know?
and the stars aligned..and we’re aimlessly blinded
looking for a goal..

We’re all looking for a home
looking for a safe place, looking for a zone..
I know I’ll make it on my own 
I know I have to its written in my soul
And I see it in the eyes of others when I’m walking down the road
miracles manifesting everywhere I go..
I don’t mind sharing insight even if you won’t
I see love everywhere I look even if you don’t. 

Life’s a vacuum with a hole
a fountain which turns into a stream of hope
Most humans are selfish by default
its sad but true… and that’s just the way it goes
Show me something that’ll give me a result
Endless possibilities invisible ropes
tying me to my destiny, guiding me.. 
point me.. to the place that I need to go..
I’m a fire sign, ‘course we bring the heat thats how we roll
Let me sail off in my boat with my unstable dreams
Always looking for that missing piece..
always wanna know with all these problems, its not how it seems
why don’t they see?
why don’t I see.. whats in front of me? 
I’ll sustain myself, please let me be
Please let me be please let me be 
Don’t be afraid of being the person you were meant to be..

We’re all looking for a home
looking for a safe place, looking for a zone..
I know I’ll make it on my own 
I know I have to its written in my soul
And I see it in the eyes of others when I’m walking down the road
miracles manifesting everywhere I go..
I don’t mind sharing insight even if you won’t
I see love everywhere I look even if you don’t. 

One day none of it will matter..
you won’t remember it 
it’ll be in the background
other things will rise up like ‘yeah boom I’m back now!’
a little reminder lurking in the background
I take it back and look through the facts
Everything happens for a reason ‘cause I’m happs’.. 
I love life to the max. 
I don’t f**k around.. 
I dont spend no time looking back now…. *sniffle*




OBLONG (Production Collabs)

This is a song that one of my close friends David Horler (Horson as I like to call him) and I started ages ago... I've really took alot of time out in these last 2 years to really work on my craft in terms of production and rapping.. its the best thing I've done in terms of really focusing my attention on the things that needed it..

Re-adjusting preferences and ways of working. Humbling experience.

Life will always find a way of showing us what needs to be done.. its just whether we want to see it or not.

Here it is..

Janset & David Horler - Oblong:



Enjoy!

SO much love. x

Alan Watts -- The Book on Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are‏

Something I wanted to share..
what an amazing book..

p111:

‘It seems almost as if to be is to quarrel, or at least to differ, to be in contrast with something else. If so, whoever does not put up a fight has no identity; whoever is not self-ish has no self. Nothing unites a community so much as common cause against an external enemy, yet, in the same moment, that enemy becomes the essential support of social unity. Therefore larger societies require larger enemies, bringing us in due course to the perilous point of our present situation, where the world is virtually divided into two huge camps. But if high officers on both sides have any intelligence at all, they make a secret agreement to contain the conflict: to call each other the worse names, but to refrain from dropping bombs. Or, if they insist that there must be some fighting to keep armies in trim, they restrict it to local conflicts in “unimportant” countries. Voltaire should have said that if the Devil did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him.’

Severe Truths


Yuan Feng said, "Don't you care about what happens to ordinary men? Please, won't you tell me about the government of the sage?"

"The government of the sage?" said Chun Mang. "Assign offices so that no abilities are overlooked, promote men so that no talents are neglected. Always know the true facts and let men do what they are best at.. When actions and words proceed properly and the world is transformed, then at a wave of the hand or a tilt of the chin all the people of the four directions will come flocking to you. This is called the government of the sage."

"May I ask about the man of spirit?"

"He lets his spirit ascend and mount upon the light; with his bodily form he dissolves and is gone. This is called the Illumination of Vastness. He lives out his fate, follows to the end his true form, and rests in the joy of Heaven and earth, while the ten thousand cares melt away. So all things return to their true form. This is called Muddled Darkness."

Yes. Chuang Tzu.

THE NEW EP


'THIS IS IT' EP 
IS COMING OUT SOON ON FATBACK RECORDS. 


Soooo excited to share this with the world. I can only express the package as ...Me.. in musical form. Happy energy with engraved darkness and movement. 15min of a real journey.

JANSET - POWER OF THE MIND (2015)





Janset - Power of the Mind (Loop from Bonobo - Hatoa) 
#UnlockingSeason 2015

I use the power of my mind 
I see love in everybody's eyes
I see it all the time 
I know every things alright
Cus' i'm guided by the signs 
and they dont tend to lie 
Even tho I feel surprised 
Each and every single time
That i'm taken for a ride 
Come ride in this fairground of life 
Let them take you for a fool once - never twice,
Thats when u see where the truth resides
That little sparkle in somebody's eyes 
I watch the sunset, then I watch it rise
I'm here to level up, I'm already in heaven feels so nice 
I think about the days spent worrying about the nights
Tell me what you see to be wrong or right
It can't be coincidence its far too precise.. this life
Highlight the truth as I filter out the lies.. 
I’m living so I have to make it nice.. Won’t I?
I’m breathing so I have to keep pushing.. Don’t I..
Tryna make the wrongs right 
Long nights lurking with the wrong types
I find it hard to explain but I just might..
Another habit in my brain, I’m a creature of the night
I’m a savage.. I’m insane
Pass me a mic let me vent out this pain..
Secret of life is hidden in the wave.. 
and you can’t even see em 
But the stars guide you on your way 
and Close your eyes and realise there not far away 
I go to space every fuc%ing day
I close my eyes and I fly away.
I can hear what they’re saying but I’m miles away.. 


Inside my soul I see brighter daa-aaa-aaaaays.

Sprouting from the Earth

Happy new year world. Its your achievement ultimately more than ours. Like trees that grow from the earth we sprout from there too. Complete cycle. Lets get this EP finished and this material out. Slowly but surely its happening. I will unlock the creativity thats embedded in me. 2015 here I come. 
I want to share another beautiful piece from one of my hero's:

In this mob of I’s inside, which one is me? Hear me out. I know I’m wandering, but don’t start putting a lid on this racket. No telling what I’ll do then. Every moment I’m thrown by your story. One moment it’s happy, and I’m singing. One moment it’s sad, and I’m weeping. It turns bitter, and I pull away. But then you spill a little grace, and just like that, I’m all light. It’s not so bad, this arrangement, actually. ~Rumi

Yes.
