Life Windows Lyrics & Music by Navasha Daya for Daya World Publishing (ASCAP) & Daya World, LLC Verse 1: Sitting out in nature and enjoying what I’m facing seeing God everywhere Enjoying what I’m feeling, feeling grounded in my being No worries or cares (no cares) Fingers on my Japa and I’m chanting Hare Rama The sound is so sweet (la, la,la,la) Sitting in this place of joy and grace is where I wanna be Chorus: Life Windows See the life I’m living Life Windows All the joy I’m feeling Verse 2: Sistah... Looking in your eyes I see your mask is a disguise so you can hide your pain You say that you’re happy, but I noticed that it flipped when the doorbell rang Your boyfriend at the door say he don’t want you no more cause he feels confused The pain in your heart is always there and it starts to feel like abuse Chorus: Life Windows See the life you’re living Life Windows All the pain you’re feeling Bridge: When you see your reflection in the window And you’ll see that It’s me I’ll see my reflection in the window And I’ll see that’s it’s you We are all reflections of each other By being gentle with each other We are being gentle with ourselves (yeah) (Guitar Solo) Chorus: Life Windows See the life you’re living Life Windows All the joy you’re feeling Life Windows See the life I’m living Life Windows All the joy I’m feeling (Hey ya, hey ya, hey ya, ho) repeat (Hey ee yey, hey ee yey ee yey) repeat

about

This Galactic songstress has done it again, but on her own creative terms! Debuting her solo EP "Rebirthed Above Ground", Navasha Daya is further establishing herself as a classic songwriter, producer and vocalist.

This EP offers soulful songs with a touch of jazz and world influences and is a natural transition from her compositions as front woman and co-founder of the band Fertile Ground. Absolutely stunning solo debut EP from world-renowned soul jazz vocalist Navasha Daya!

Recorded with total live instrumentation (with the exception of synth strings) by a host of remarkable musicians, Navasha Daya’s EP, “Rebirthed Above Ground” was written, composed, arranged, and produced by Navasha Daya herself.

From Indie Spirit by Stevie Robinson
Her first solo project starts with “Iwapele” meaning gentle character taken from the Holy African scripture of the Yoruba. A smooth groove that will have you swaying and rocking your neck (that’s right I said your neck) to the music. At first listen to “Prelude to a Kiss” I was filled with the joy, hearing this song. And it will surely be known as a classic. It’s that beautiful. It flows right into jazzy smooth flowing “Sweet Kiss. “Galactic Soul” tells Daya’s story it’s her anthem song. The EP ends with a heavy guitar rock number called “Life Windows” which has you rocking your head and singing out loud or at least that’s what it has me doing. This debut EP will leave you wanting more.
