soul food: john forté's 'drift on'

music to breathe to. 

i hope you can see the shore from where you are/you may be miles away, but close at heart

i hope you can see the dawn from where you stand/it might be dark...but you will land.

drift on...you will land.

i learned so much working on this. and i'm so excited to be working with by brilliant partners in crime. and also: shad is awesome.
