acoustic driven Poetry to music. about the ups and downs of life and love
I was born Aaron Lee Lewis in Gallipolis, Ohio, New Years Eve. When adopted by my stepfather that changed my last name to Morris. However on the web I go by Aarion Lee. All through-out my school career I was involved in vocal music, and was even in a few different musical play productions for my first stage experience in high school. After joining the United States Army in 1980. I picked up my first guitar in 1981 but didn't start playing seriously until 1984 after one of my friends showed me a scale and couple of power chords. I was pretty much self taught from then on out. I was learning to play to bands like Jimi Hendrix, Saxon, Iron Maiden, Boston, Deep Purple, Scorpions, Black Sabbath, & Ozzy just to name a few. my guitar skills were tested everyday and I practiced anywhere from 6 to 10 hours a day. I started writing poetry and started my first band in 1983 playing cover songs, and have been in numerous cover bands throughout the years. Jamming on stage with ex-members of Columbus based rock band The Godz, and Money in my first original/cover band Araknid. Opening up for touring club band Warcylde on numerous occasions in my second cover/original band Blacke Thorne. Then in the third and final cover/original band Murder One, the bass player Mike Davis was killed in a car crash one week before our first gig. This devastated me, since Mike was a close friend, he had been in a few bands with me through-out the years. So I continued to write my own material, lyrics as well as music, vowing never to play cover songs again. due to a pact that Mike and I had made before he died. with well over 200 poems and lyrics, in 1997 I submitted some of my lyric works to the International Poets Society. I was nominated for Poet Of The Year that same year and have been nominated for the same honor every year since to this date. As well as receiving numerous editors choice awards, and being inducted into the International Poets Hall Of Fame, I have been published in various anthologies by the International Poets Society as well as a few of the Best Poets And Poems Of The Year Anthologies, Who's Who In Poetry Anthology. I have also been published by Famous Poets and Noble House Publishing in the U.K. In the year 2001 due to a change in careers, I decided it was time to get back into the music scene even though I had been writing and recording material on my own, it was time to start another band, my vision, all originals no cover songs, so was born. even though we recorded a complete album and was getting world-wide reckognition on Mp3.com, I couldn't seem to keep the other members focused on my vision. So after 3 line-ups I decided to promote the music myself. . I also started a new project Koalition page and will be remixed and mastered and released through

based on the classic American Indian folklore of the story of Icarus
Lyrics
The Journey of Icarus The flight of Icarus Soaring through the sky Reaching for the heavens I never want to die To fly the skies forever To the mountains and to the sea My soul shall spread its wings As I fly for eternity Gliding high with wings spread wide I never want to land Soaring through he heavens Headed straight to the Promised Land With the wind blowing gently Across my tears stricken face This earth I’m gonna leave To search for a better place I want to fly with the eagles Into the clear blue sky Please come with me my angel I never want our love to die Gliding ever so gently Carried by the east wind Towards the stars we’ll climb Never to descend Out into space we’ll go Past the Milky Way Together forever you and I Our love never to stray Forever and ever for infinity Our souls shall fly side by side Our love for each other is strong And shall never ever die Please come with me my love On my never ending journey I’m destined never to return Be with me for eternity The journey of Icarus On the never ending plight Soaring all through the day And all through he night Day after day week after week Month after month and year after year We shall be together in the heavens Never to shed a tear I’ve found you my love My soul now is complete For now we both are one Our hearts beat as one beat Years and years of heartache Has all come to an end Towards the heavens we’ll fly Never again to descend I love you with all my heart I love you with all my soul Take hold of my hand my love Fly with me and never let go My love for you will last forever My love shall never die Please say you’ll come with me For to the stars we both shall fly
