1.	Reason 03:48	lyrics	buy track
“Reason” Music & Lyrics by Hannah Baiardi The struggle is real We feel it every day Weighing us down Gotta really pull our weight To find the light To stay and fight somehow I’ve always known I had to stay true We’re walking alone Though I see myself in you Through different eyes, despite disguise The same There’s a reason that we came here There’s a reason that we stayed There’s a reason that is love There’s a knowing that we share There’s a purpose we’re all here Can't you see? Why can’t you see? You never fit in Stood out from the crowd You waited your turn Took courage to speak out loud But now’s your time You have to see Your worth Holding back until we’re ready Flooding light into this world Time to step into the darkness The darkest corners of this world There’s a reason that we came here There’s a reason that we stayed There’s a knowing that we share There’s a purpose we’re all here Can’t you see? Why can’t you see? So follow me into the future And I’ll do my best to follow you We can only do this all together Despite the things that we’re going through Just follow me when you fall, break down and cry Just follow me when you feel you can’t survive Just follow me Just follow Just follow Just follow me There’s a reason There’s a reason (I know what you think) There’s a reason There’s a reason (we feel things so deep) There’s a reason Let’s start believin’

How Do You Want Your Love Music & Lyrics by Hannah Baiardi ©Hannah Baiardi Music 2022 Hannah Louise Baiardi LLC How do you want your love Straight up undone, undying Slow and hot Linger in Underneath Breathless – How do you want your love Give it to me straight up (no thank you) (this time) slower, deeper, warmer, nearer, undone and unwound How do you want your love served, baby? We think there’s one way to show our love But my love goes beyond touch, words, feels There’s many places to activate it Only these words can fail us But you know what can’t The charged spaces in between our hands And the air that stands still when we make it so Heart racing, suddenly you know How do you want your love How do you want it served baby How do you want your love With the tinglings and the burns baby How do you want your love How do you want it it to burn I can move you with my heart Or just my eyes alone With the space between Or the lack thereof You call it, I roam How do you want your love, how do you want it served baby How do you want your love with the tinglings and the burns baby How do you want it Right back into it I was miles in front and I’m miles behind But you're bringing me back to the moment divine (it's so divine) Right now I feel The energies of right now, surreal In / out / in / out Up / down / all round Circling what can this be? I feel this heaven so blissfully How do you want your love How do you want it served Up / neat/ on the rox / under the sheets Down low / nice and dirty / seeping all out How do you want your love, baby tell me what you’re feeling – No don’t tell me, let me sense it, let me energetically feel it Sensual surprise I can read it with your eyes No need to touch, no need to taste, I can feel it baby, when your pain’s erased It’s burning so bright Burning so bright Burning so bright How do you want How do you want (uh) How do you want How do you want How do you want How do you want...your love How do you want How do you want How do you want How do you want…your love How do you want How do you want How do you. How do you want your — I’m done You breathe I taste You need Something bout - I go too slow You go too fast Just breathe – I take what you don’t need Bring back to the beat (uh) to the beat (uh) to the beat (uh) to the beat - We go too far every time to the stars Every every time to the stars (gotta switchback, just so dreamy) Every time to the stars Halfway to Mars The heat, the pace just — How do you want your love How do you want your love served Tell me the truth cuz I can either… blow you through the roof or take you down Way low, way low Underground, underground, underground, underground, underground, underground - coming up through the roots I can take you up through the clouds, then let you fall down low. How do you want your love How do you want it to go baby Just tell me, just tell me and we’ll make this magical So magical Like fla la la la la… Like fla la la la la….. Like fla la la la la…..

Stuck on My Mind Music & Lyrics by Hannah Baiardi ©Hannah Baiardi Music 2022 Hannah Louise Baiardi LLC There’s something going on I’ve known it all along When my world Came crumbling down It took me for a ride Challenged all my pride My fears that I’d carried for years We have it in spades Why would we throw this away A waste of time Cuz you’re stuck on my mind Cuz there’s no moving on There’s just move me along, yeah I’ll ride your waves Could drink you for days I’m in this too deep Felt the pain the heat When you lose ‘Bout all of your mind You’d risk it all, you’d die You’re floating miles high In the clouds Where the sunshine abounds We have it in spades Why would we throw this away A waste of time Cuz you’re stuck on my mind Cuz there’s no moving on There’s just move me along I’ll ride your waves Could drink you for days The times we had The laughs we shared It’s gold Like a balm to my soul The memories we made Are forever engraved in my heart There are a thousand ways I could forget you today But I ain’t gonna try Cuz you’re stuck on my mind You’re stuck on my mind Don’t fool yourself When you’re dealing with love It’s never the same It always remains

Magic Key Music & Lyrics by Hannah Baiardi ©Hannah Baiardi Music 2022 Hannah Louise Baiardi LLC Show me what I’ve been afraid to see The spaces in between, the higher frequencies I’m ready now I’ve kept my heart on lockdown But I’m scared cuz you hold the key It’s gonna be a victory, a perfect fit I’m freaking out My walls and guards, my walls and guards, up against my walls and guards They’re crashing down, they’re burnin’ down Don’t you see where this leaves me now? Wide open Raw Doors open It's cold and I’m lonely now You’re standing too far from me, where’s that body heat, where’s that chemistry, there’s too much to breathe, where’s that love I need, where's that passion I seek, you know me— or don’t ya? Too much, too much, too much, too much, too much I’m starved from your touch, I’m starved for your touch, I’m starvin’ for ya, I’m starving for your touch I’ve kept my heart on wraps But now I’m over that Bust it wide open Put that damn key in the lock My body craves a shock It’s wrong they say I wouldn’t have it, any, damn, other way Waited 27 years How many frogs, how many frogs You know when you feel it This time I mean it But it’s radio silence — say something to me My heart that’s wide open It’s bare where it was frozen Someone had the key You’ve reached victory Someone had the key You’ve reached victory It’s wide open Don’t hurt me It's coming back, coming back, don’t desert me I’ve been there before, I thought I closed that door behind me Now you have the magic key – Sweet victory I think I’m ready for the truth They say it hurts Somehow I think I’m ready to hear it —either way Lay it on me.

Seduction Music & Lyrics by Hannah Baiardi ©Hannah Baiardi Music 2022 Hannah Louise Baiardi LLC I have always wondered What they feel inside What of your seduction That keeps them hypnotized What of your mystique A method to your madness Makes them go weak Like a tonic to their sadness A streak of Cassanova Lingers in your eyes A look of innocence Poses as disguise One too many pleasures Have you lost track of time A blurry satisfaction Lost in the sublime I won’t fall into your web I won’t jump into your bed I won’t fall into your eyes I will not stay mesmerized I will promise you a fight I won’t cave into tonight I will build up these walls I won’t take another fall What of your mystique Seductive physique That keeps them coming back For a satisfying snack A streak of Cassanova Lingers in your eyes A look of innocence Poses as disguise Sweet seduction pour through me Cure me of this vacancy Renew me with a vibrancy Through touch Sweet seduction come to me Wrap me up in fantasy Sweet seducer, can you feel This alchemy What of your powers What of your mystique You hide it so damn well But tear apart the sheets What of your seduction The power of suggestion When two becomes four You can’t say no to more I won’t fall into your web I won’t jump into your bed I won’t fall into your eyes I will not stay mesmerized I will promise you a fight I won’t cave into tonight I will build upon these walls I won’t take another fall What of your seduction What of your charm A gentle interruption A touch upon my arm What of my resistance Cave to your persistence The warmth in your voice Now I understand.

Heavy Music & Lyrics by Hannah Baiardi ©Hannah Baiardi Music 2022 Hannah Louise Baiardi LLC I’m so heavy Got the weight of the world I’m so ready To feel light in these bones All this heavy Alone Can I take it All this weight on my own Will it break me I’m so heavy Got my feet on the ground I’m so ready, let these changes abound I’ve been seeing the signs, that I’m ready Time to retune my vibe and hold it steady Can you feel it Cuz it’s your your time too Break these shackles Time to get in tune I can feel your vibe - your aura’s spinning Time to get in a groove, this veil’s a thinnin’ I can feel our hearts mellowing I can feel miles and miles I can feel a thousand miles deep I can hear roars and roars and roars I can feel so many things in me Can I hold it? Like I hold this heaviness Can you share it with me? We feel it so deep We feel our hearts leap We have the midas touch But can’t get enough of it A lot of pain going around in the world A lot us feeling a whirlwind but something in common We got an ax to grind, a reason why we’re here, a reason we’re alive, but still you can’t perceive us for something’s that’s getting in your way You can see who we are We've been here before We’ve battled our scars till we come back in droves We’re the same as before But stronger in number This is not home This is not over This is a fight that we’ll do together But take a load, take a load off of me Just take a load, make it one pound lighter baby So much heavy… So much heavy… So much heavy… So much heavy, just take it, take it from me. Heavy So much weighing us down So much wrong Spin this around So much pain that we feel, in this lifetime, a lifetime’s worth In one generation We’ve found each other through our pain We’ve got a common suffering We want to break through the spell together baby, baby, baby, baby Do you feel the end of the line Step into the light The time is here baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby The time is here baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby The time is here baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby The time is here baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby C’mon and take off a load.

Shaman Music & Lyrics by Hannah Baiardi ©Hannah Baiardi Music 2022 Hannah Louise Baiardi LLC The shaman wakes up, half past six, taste the morning bliss Others shy up to him, but he’s still in the stillness of the morning dew Others drift from mountains high Thirsting for wisdom and guidance He says why are you here, when you have all the answers you need within Miles and miles and miles they travel, to drink his voice To bask in wisdom, this is what he says They’ll be changes, that will shake you to your core Be ready, for this old world is no more He goes out for his morning, tea on the summer dew He awakens again, he’s feeling something new He feels a world’s pain A thousand miles they toil, just to swim in his voice Why are you here when you have the answers within You pine for the knowledge that’s inside of you Longing for you to discover You yearn for the answers inside of you Fog rolls in thick here Billowing robes appear Whirling out of the mist What flavor is this? All he says with a flicker in his eye And a half-tempted smile Just look within (but, what if) Just look within (well, how will i know) Just look within Over the mountaintops He flees into the mist Running, a-running, a-running around Never to be found.

Magical Creature Music & Lyrics by Hannah Baiardi ©Hannah Baiardi Music 2022 Hannah Louise Baiardi LLC What magical, mystical, dreamer are you? Mysterious, beautiful, dreamer are you? I have seen shadows, foreign meadows and memories that flood back Sketches in my mind, waiting to be validated Can this be or is it a dream? What is this bliss? What kind of magical creature are you? My soul knows it, but my eyes can read it too One memory of long ago Or tomorrow It’s magic at work Mystical creatures move through time and space They don’t stay in one place They move through cultures, mountains, rivers, Cut through the divide, they break down walls They move in, flow in, shapeshift, Move and you will feel them inside What creature are you? What magician moves you like this? Do you recognize this bliss? Distant visions, grasping at the cobwebs of my dimmest memories Flooding in and then pulling back, never in my reach or grasp What creature are you? What magician, what prophet too? To recognize, to light up something deep inside Can you feel it too? Like a whisper of truth? What magic is this, what magic is this, What magic is this, what magic is this?

about

Welcome to Magic. It all started with Tara Brach’s book, Radical Acceptance, that set a journey into motion. Through extensive reading and self-practice, I started to soften my heart space to radical surrender, love and acceptance in all areas of my life. Magic would be ‘The World’ card in Tarot: coming full circle. From learning life lessons and being brave to shifting perspectives and taking chances, Magic stirred something deep within me. Laden with esoteric and mystical themes, Magic chronicles a journey of self-discovery, rooted in compassion, gratitude and exploration. The experience of writing the music for Magic was mystical, enchanting and other-worldly. It grabbed a hold of me, wrote me and in doing so, released me.
