DEZ ROCKET

Q Can you tell me what inspired you to write “Akashic Walker”?

A I realized I had a deep energetic connection with someone the first moment I saw them. Like we had spent lifetimes together. How I knew puzzled me, I just knew that I knew.

Q How does the story ‘Senya and Diama: A Cosmic Love Story’ influence the lyrics of this song?

A It’s an expression of the cosmic love between two people without any tangible 3D evidence. A deep soul connection that goes beyond human understanding or knowledge of just how deep a connection can be. Senya and Diama were soulmates that spent multiple lives together over the course of tens of thousands of years but had yet to connect in this current life, and a mystery to whether they ever would. This was the emotion and feeling I wanted to convey in Akashic Walker.

Q What does the idea of a “cosmic bond” mean to you personally?

A It means an energetic multi-dimensional bond between two beings (or more) that transcends time and space. Energy bodies that resemble each others archetypal blueprint; identical or nearly identical energetic geometric structures. Some refer to a connection like this as twin flame soulmates or an undying, never-ending love.

Q How important was it for you to express longing and distance in this song?

A I wanted to express a deep yearning that felt like it could have been for millennia. A level of desire and wanting that is so powerful it’s almost unexplainable. A deep longing has a way of strengthening a bond that’s created only by being in separation, making the reunion ever more powerful and meaningful.

Q How do you translate your personal emotions into lyrics that feel universal?

A We are all fractals of the Universe. Which means we are all individual Universes. Our feelings and emotions are a fraction of the quantum field, or Universal landscape. Our localized human expression is part of a much larger expression. So, we are part of the Universe, and we are the Universe simultaneously, meaning our emotions are also the Universes emotions to some degree, micro and macro, and vice versa. I believe that everything is connected, especially our emotions, which is like our vehicle that transports us through the astral realm, usually associated with our thoughts, feelings and consciousness as a whole. Even though our emotions are ours, they also belong to the Universe.

Q Infinity is a recurring theme in the song, why did you choose to connect love with this concept?

A The love I speak of in Akashic Walker, in a cosmic bond sense, is an infinite love because energy can never be destroyed. This infinite love is an energetic bond of pure essence created by light, which is also love, at the moment of conception or dawn of their existence. Infinity, though not everlasting, is forever. And I believe, for example, that after two lovers parish in this realm, their love continues throughout other realms in their energy bodies, forever, wrapped in infinity.

Q What part of the song’s lyrics was the most challenging to write?

A The chorus. I didn’t want to sound negative, but wanted to express that sometimes life can be very hard and it’s up to each individual to do with it what they will. Like for example, feeling like quitting or giving up, but continuing and persevering regardless of how you feel. And not wanting to change in order to receive a certain outcome, but knowing that being rewarded for personal growth is also a possibility.

Q How does the hope for future closeness influence the way you write about the present distance?

A It’s the hope that creates a strengthening desire and yearning, even though sometimes it can create anxiety. The not knowing, or seeing, or touching, and wondering; closing the distance gap energetically before any tangible 3D connection is established with say, creative visualization. And because being separated from someone you love oftentimes feels draining, like an emptiness, or even debilitating, visualizing being together in the Now is comforting and enriching to the potential of a harmonious reunion or blissful return into each others arms.

Q In what ways do your lyrics reflect your own personal experiences with love?

A Basically, I was someone carrying around a lot of unresolved issues that negatively affected my relationships. It wasn’t until I took personal inventory and did some deep introspective work and soul cleansing did I feel like I could be an asset to a partnership or union. I had to go ‘in repair’ because my problems were cyclical and festering into increased negative experiences. Life forced me to look at myself because of these harsh or even crushing circumstances, which I eventually saw as the catalyst for growth and healing. A new light that shines on an old life creates a new life.

Q How do you want listeners to feel when they connect with the themes of this song?

A However they want to feel I guess. Loving, missing, overcoming, losing, winning, yearning, receiving, connecting, crying, wanting and desiring, hoping… or just hope. Maybe the calm.. after the storm. Personally, it makes me feel a lot of love and hope for what I truly desire.

Q The lyrics mention not caring if life isn’t fair, how does that sentiment reflect your personal philosophy?

A At some points I felt singled out to suffer tremendously, and preferred that no one knew. At certain points I would get down and feel very sorry for myself. I eventually had to realize that the “why, or why me” part didn’t matter. I had to learn to ‘not care’ why some people have to go through so much pain and trauma. I care deeply, I just no longer care why. This created more hope and a deeper sense and understanding of knowing, growing, evolving and becoming.

Q How did you approach blending everyday moments of love with the larger cosmic imagery?

A I tend to reside in the clouds. I love to love, and the grand imagery is nothing new. Like, when I feel love I also have a symphonic sound track playing in my head. To me every moment in life is a scene in a movie, therefore life is just a movie to me. We are all the main characters of our own movies that we also produce and direct. Even though it always seems like I’m trying to make a cinematic blockbuster.

Q When you wrote the lyrics, did you imagine a specific listener or a general audience?

A Maybe the specific person that inspired me to write it.

Q How do you think your lyrics stand out from other love songs?

A It’s hard to say because love songs up till now hasn’t exactly been my forté, whether as a listener or a writer. The only thing that stands out to me is the cosmic bond aspect, or knowing that the person you’re in love with is someone you’ve spent multiple lives with.

Q Are there any hidden meanings in the lyrics that fans might not immediately notice?

A Not exactly, but I would like to think that the lyric “I went in repair” subconsciously inspires people to take a look within to see if there may be something they could improve on as individual souls having a human experience.

Q How do you hope your lyrics inspire or impact listeners in their own experiences with love?

A I hope they never give up on love.
