Beginning To See was released as track #5 on Carl Barat & The Jackals' debut album, Let It Reign, released on Cooking Vinyl in the UK/Europe and Grand Jury in the U.S. The track is mentioned in The Guardian's review; Barât sounds motivated throughout, pausing for breath halfway through on the nostalgic swoon of Beginning to See.

I don't believe in people walking on water,
I don't believe in heaven, I don't agree with hell
Why would someone threaten their sons and daughters with damnation and torture
when they mean well?
With dirty hands but our hearts are clean
and all our best laid plans lay scuppered out at sea
You and me, I'm beginning to see
I don't mind people changing water to wine,
I do that all the time, seems fine to me
It seems I do alright when left to my own way
I'm much more likely to give praise
I'm beginning to see
With dirty hands but our hearts are clean
and all our best laid plans scuppered out at sea
You and me, I'm beginning to see
You and me, I'm beginning to see
Since I was born in to a world full of borders
To follow doctrines and orders with no way to breath
I don't know I guess I'm bridled and blinkered
Just not one of the thinkers
I'm beginning to see
With dirty hands but still our hearts are clean
and all our best laid plans scuppered out at sea
You and me, I'm beginning to see
You and me, I'm beginning to see
