“Nothing Missing” closes the album where all true journeys end: at home. Unlike the earlier tracks that celebrate community, loving-kindness, and devotion, this final song turns to the deepest realization of all—that there was never anything lacking to begin with. The lyrics trace a path from chasing and broken echoes to the quiet discovery that “all I ever chased was fading back into me.” The word “Buddhata” refers to Buddhahood itself—our innermost nature of awakening. To chant “Buddhata, here and now” is to recognize that peace, wholeness, and freedom are not destinations to reach, but the ground we’ve always stood on. Nothing missing. Nothing to add. Just waking up to what has always been here.

Lyrics

I built a world of broken echoes

Tried to be what I’m not

Every mirror showed a stranger

Every dream left me lost

Till the silence pulled me under

And I finally could see

All I ever chased was fading

Back into me

Still dreaming, now I know

Nothing left to reach for

No more running, no more fear 

I am already here

Through the shadows, through it all

I can hear the call

Still waking, hear me now

I am breaking out

Buddhata, wake me now

Buddhata, here and now

Still waking, I am free

Nothing missing in me

No more searching in the dark

I was home from the start

Through the silence, through the pain

I return again

Still waking, hear me now

I am here right now

Buddhata, here and now
