OUR SONG: CALLING ALL MONARCHS
What happens when a man who refuses to be seen decides to be fully heard—while pointing listeners away from himself and toward God? That tension sits at the heart of Calling All Monarchs, the defining song from Mind Elevation, an up-and-coming songwriter whose work feels less like performance and more like testimony. The song was written in the quiet hours, where anxiety grows louder, grief feels heavier, and the mirror reflects both who Adrian is and who Mind Elevation is becoming. Yet the breakthrough moment in the writing wasn’t self-confidence—it was surrender. The lyrics carry the weight of someone realizing he cannot guide himself out of the darkness, and more importantly, that he was never meant to.
At the core of the song is the Monarch metaphor that anchors both MED Count and Mind Elevation’s identity: transformation through pressure, guided by divine timing. The cocoon phase isn’t romanticized or rushed; it’s endured with faith. Mental health is treated as the battleground, not the verdict, and Jehovah God is presented as the true guide through it. Mind Elevation’s role is intentionally secondary—he walks beside the listener, not ahead of them. His words don’t command; they encourage. They don’t replace faith; they reinforce it. The song reads like a journal entry written with the understanding that if surrender was necessary for him, it may be necessary for others too.
So what was really going through Mind Elevation’s mind when he wrote Calling All Monarchs? The answer arrives in the song’s quiet climax: this wasn’t a cry for help, nor a call to follow a man—it was a summons to trust God. A reminder that Monarchs aren’t born flying; they emerge when the process is complete. Mind Elevation isn’t offering the light—he’s pointing to it, staying in motion, encouraging others not to stop mid-journey. Because the path out of the darkness was never illuminated by him; it has always been guided by Jehovah God.
