lyrics

VERSE
What you said to me/ Really hurt me heart
Cause I thought we were better
You know jealousy/ Filled with speculation
Will only leave you bitter
But your actions only leave me this question

CHORUS
Are you my friend fa sho?
Can you feel my soul/ Are you trying?
Or are you my friend fa show
Hang 'round cause you know I'm rising? (repeat)

VERSE
I don't have the time/ To make you understand
We have nothing without trust/ Nobody does
It's not just what we say/ But everything we do
That truly speaks about us
Your actions only leave me one question

CHORUS
Are you my friend fa sho?
Can you feel my soul/ Are you trying?
Or are you my friend fa show
Hang 'round cause you know I'm rising (repeat)

VAMP
I'm rising up

ASCENDANT has been rising above their fears, their obstacles & creating meaningful, soul-filled music in an era when such artistic statements just aren't made but desperately needed. ASCENDANT rises... and asks us all to join them in flight ... more

A Group Effort
by Chris Greene Quartet

Like the liner notes say, Chris and crew are onto something. Rooted in improvisation and traditional "jazz" stylings but declaring a hip affection, CGQ are making waves & you should ride it ASCENDANT
