Yeah, so we've received different levels of sunlight. It's just a bunch of human beings getting different levels of sunlight. Though we are all human x2
Song. 11. Knowledge = Freedom - Bonus Track
You cannot learn without making a failure first, continue on,
All gains come from trial and error.
Don’t give up when times are rough and you feel down.
keep your head up and your nose to the ground.
Intention, determination,
‘Cause my passion for knowledge gives my soul satisfaction,
When I complete all my observations, place the data the table.
I know what I know now, a hypothesis becomes a theory.
Knowledge is freedom you see?
Chorus:
It’s about freedom, freedom.
Knowledge = Freedom.
Freedom, freedom.
& Knowledge = Freedom.
Freedom, freedom.
Knowledge = freedom
Knowledge = freedom
Knowledge = freedom
Knowledge = freedom
Knowledge = freedom
Knowledge = freedom
Knowledge = freedom
What do you know about it? oh oh
What do you know about it? oh oh
What do you know about it? oh oh
What do you know about it? oh oh
What do you know about it? oh oh

Lyrics from The Space Pixie "Womankind" (released November 24th, 2020) - by Rica Tro (aka The Space Pixie):
You make up half of the world, though you’re always the target of mistreatment and harm.
Take care of yourself, and always protect your mind, your heart too —in the absence of trust in those around you.
Rise for yourself, though rise higher for the womankind,
for each movement we make changes the destiny of womankind.
You can spread great change wherever you go.
Never stop working to liberate yourself and lift up your sisters, you’re
a woman and you know what is all of your rights. You know what is all
of your rights. Your human rights, your human rights.

Lyrics from the album titled 12" by Squish Squish (comprised of Rica Tro and Aden Fallows) (Released October 16th, 2023):
Song 1. Consciousness Rising
Wise one don’t be down.
Kind one don’t wear a frown.
While the world still has a lot of levels to complete.
And your awareness leaves you,
far beyond mundane monotony.
You have to look inside to find any peace.
You are the consciousness rising, rising, rising. You are the
consciousness rising, rising, rising. You are the consciousness rising,
rising, rising. You are the consciousness rising, rising, rising.
Song 2. Failures of Humanity
Some years in a time from now, humanity will have to look back on all it chose. It’s the earth we’ve made and chosen, the precious things we’ve distorted, distorted and then carried around as tokens. Pieces of a fractured planet. Pieces of a fractured planet. So paradoxical is the sight of the tears that roll down the face of all humanity. So paradoxical is the sight of the tears that roll down the face of all humanity, humanity, humanity.
Song 3. Free Minded State
Life can’t be this way. x6
Look around you, what can you see? Nothing is fair, so many greedy.
Life can’t be this way. Life can’t be this way. Look around you, so many angry.
Don’t you feel blue? Don’t be naive!
Life can’t be this way. Life can’t be this way.
Recalibrate, recalibrate. Restore a state, restore a fate.
Don’t hesitate, don’t hesitate, an honest way, an honest way. Recalibrate, recalibrate.
Restore a state, restore a fate.
Don’t hesitate, don’t hesitate, a free minded state, a free minded state.
Look around you, what can you see? Nothing is fair, so many greedy.
Life can’t be this way. Life can’t be this way. Look around you, so many angry.
Don’t you feel blue? Don’t be naive!
Life can’t be this way. Life can’t be this way.
Life can’t be this way. x16
Song 4. Lose Our Inhibition
Today we live our dream, Sounds pass through all obstacles. The core of our being, heading to release. We lose our inhibition. x2 Creating our ambition. x2 These souls intertwined in a story so pure. There is little need to say more. We lose our inhibition. x2 Creating our ambition. x2 Today we live our dream, Sounds pass through all obstacles. The core of our being, heading to release. We lose our inhibition. We lose our inhibition x2
Song 5. Destiny
Somewhere in this reality, maybe, there could be, serene love energy, watching and waiting for us to move our hearts to a better place. Watching and waiting for our minds to gain a certain grace. When I look up at the sky, I think of all we could be, if we invoked our kindest destiny. We can be that dream, that dream. x4
Song 6. Wish For Peace
We’re wishing for a day when all people are treated with fairness and
kindness. When there is understanding, and all are equally shown
respect.
When people work together emotionally,
and spiritually grow with their fellow peoples of the earth. When people
love unconditionally,
without selfishness and without greed.
When there is no more violence, no more greed. When there is only
happiness and peace. x2
When there is no more violence, no more greed. When there is only
happiness and peace.
Song 8. Mindfulness
We are not what the leaders of the world are. We are our own individuals. We have our own thoughts; we have our own minds. We have our own voices, and we won’t be denied our right, to speak, to be heard, to take a stand, to say what we believe, what we believe. To speak, to be heard, to take a stand, to say what we believe, what we believe. To speak, to be heard, to take a stand, to say what we believe, what we believe. We say no to all war. We say no to all nuclear powers. We say no to all hatred. We say no to all greed. We want a healthy kind future for all of humanity, humanity. We want a healthy kind future for all of humanity, humanity. We want a healthy kind future for all of humanity, humanity.
Song 9. Till Next Time
Remember there is another wave, after the first one, that will splash over you and give you a renewal of life. The seagulls will make their morning call. The sun may bask you in its golden light. So, till next time, till ‘morrow. No worries, no sorrows, alright? So, till next time, till ‘morrow. No worries, no sorrows, alright? Don’t forget the stars will shine tonight. x11

You said, hey, hey, hey,.. So later I thought… maybe we should hang. Then later I said okay we should play.. maybe we should play. You’d bring your guitar, and I’d bring my ideas. Yeah, yeah.
Then, suddenly it was the day, day. And you first played in your jangling shoes. Then I asked you to lend me your guitar, lend me your guitar, lend me your guitar. And we finished a song, though that was only the start. Oh it was only the start, yes it was.
So then it was hard to go. After days of singing, talking, and laughing so much. I didn’t ever want to let you go from my arms.
Hey, hey, hey, you said. Now I like hanging out with you. Especially during the sunset blues. Find you keeping the lights on in my world. (x2)
So we made a plan, we were gonna have to stay together always, together always. I love you so, I love you so, so much.

Song 10. Music Plays In My Heart
Seeking that energy. Looking for serenity. Want to be where the night sets me free,.. on my own odyssey.
Oh I’ve wanted this for so long. Music plays in my heart - your call. Oh I needed someone here. You’re the only thing that is clear.
Driving past the city’s bright lights. Going out into the night,.. where I’ll find the starlight. In open fields I feel alive.
Oh I’ve wanted this for so long. Music plays in my heart - your call. Oh I needed someone here. You’re the only thing that is clear.
(Guitar Solo)
Oh I’ve wanted this for so long. Music plays in my heart - your call. Oh I needed someone here. And you’re the only thing that is clear.
You’re the only thing that is clear. You’re the only thing that is clear.
