This is his mission, this is his music, and this is the man, Buddhuza.
Born and raised in the musical-nest of Zugdidi, Georgia; Buddhuza, with only two broken guitars, a tape recorder, and a single bedroom, formed his very first band with his brother at the age of 13. The songs were merely written and performed as entertainment for neighbors and friends; however, these experiences would serve a more important unseen purpose for him - these moments provided him with hands on experience in song-writing, arranging, and performing. Previously, at the age of 6, he and his brother attended Georgian-folk choir classes which allowed him to witness, first hand, the importance of spontaneity in music. To him, music has been a soundtrack through every phase of his existence; however, once he searched in his father's vinyl collection and heard the progressive-rock of the late '60s, it gave him shivers and sent blood to veins that he didn't even know that he had! It was then, at that moment, that he realized what he was going to write and play music for life.
His forthcoming album, Zer0, is an elaborate meeting point of end and start, as reincarnate as a musician, offering fresh looks at our uncanny environment in coming releases. A collection of 14 songs recorded by Buddhuza himself through 2008-2010, these tracks, previously, were scattered among his projects, New Demos and NowHere. The title, spelled with the number '0' instead of the letter 'o', reflects the idea of "point zero" - how every moment is an ultimate here and now, and a fresh start to our present. He states himself, "this is a project with many doors." The songs vary in sound but are all attached with a single thread that connects them like a bead; he calls this an "incurable joy," as he enjoys the process one hundred percent.
His music is a result of positive emotion-filled charges released to his listeners. This particular attribute, or niche, is reserved for those seeking melodious alternative-music with an emphasis on lyrics. And after receiving an honorable mention in the prestigious International Songwriting Competition, he has his eyes set on a much greater prize - your ears. Simply put, Buddhuza is the real deal.
Would You Cry?
Buddhuza Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And if it didn't work although you tried and tried and tried,
What would you cry?
Would you cry?
Would you cry 'agh'?
What would you cry?
Would you cry?
Would you cry 'agh'?
I know it's a scheme and there's a reason to all I see,
But I need to know just cos it's happening to me,
Won't you let me see?
Let me see,
Let me see, please!
Won't you let me see?
Let me see,
Let me see, please!
If it didn't work when you were weighed down by your head,
If all you had to do is get down on your knees and play,
What would you say?
Would you say?
Would you say 'hey'?
What would you say?
Would you say?
Would you say 'hey'?
If you didn't care it didn't work the way you tried,
But if it didn't matter it's not just what you had in mind,
What would you cry?
Would you cry?
Would you cry 'aah'?
What, what would you cry?
Would you cry?
Would you cry 'aah'?
The lyrics to Buddhuza's song "Would You Cry?" explore the idea of failure and one's reaction to it. The song asks the listener to consider what they would do if something they had worked towards didn't come to fruition. It questions whether they would cry or if they would simply move on. The repetition of the line "What would you cry?" emphasizes the importance of this question and forces the listener to really consider what their reaction would be.
The second verse delves deeper into this concept, asking if the failure occurred when the individual was already weighed down by their problems. It suggests that sometimes all you need to do is admit defeat and move on, but the question still remains - would you cry? The final verse highlights the idea that sometimes things just don't work out, but it's important to consider whether it really mattered in the first place.

If it didn't get you where you thought you would arrive,
If your efforts didn't take you to the destination you had in mind,
And if it didn't work although you tried and tried and tried,
And despite your repeated attempts it still didn't succeed,
What would you cry?
What would be your emotional reaction?
Would you cry?
Would tears be shed?
Would you cry 'agh'?
Would it be a cry of frustration?
I know it's a scheme and there's a reason to all I see,
I understand that there is a plan and purpose behind everything that happens,
But I need to know just cos it's happening to me,
But I still crave understanding when it happens to me personally,
Won't you let me see?
Please grant me insight.
Let me see,
Allow me to understand.
Let me see, please!
Please show me the way.
If it didn't work when you were weighed down by your head,
If you were mentally overwhelmed and unable to succeed,
If all you had to do is get down on your knees and play,
And the solution was as simple as humbling yourself and submitting to a higher power,
What would you say?
What would your response be?
Would you say?
Would you speak out loud?
Would you say 'hey'?
Would it be an exclamation of surprise or confusion?
If you didn't care it didn't work the way you tried,
If you were indifferent to it not working out as planned,
But if it didn't matter it's not just what you had in mind,
But if the outcome was not significant to your original intentions,
What would you cry?
What would be your emotional response?
Would you cry?
Would tears still be shed?
Would you cry 'aah'?
Would it be a cry of resignation or acceptance?
What, what would you cry?
What would be your honest reaction?
Would you cry?
Would you weep?
Would you cry 'aah'?
Would it be a cry of surrender or contentment?
