War Song
Lately feels like we’re moving backwards
Why not invent more things to destroy the earth
Lets send our kids to war maybe there’s more out there
to conquer as our own build some new homes.
And if there’s culture out there,
or something with character
Well diversity -- may be ----to strange ----- for me….
We’ll take over assimilate. Our ancestors will hate us.
Establish democracy, this hypocrisy?
Beef up the military, market the armory.
Be big players on the world stage
It’s nations with weapons in rage
there’s no curiosity of all this animosity
and no matter how hard we try
it’s going to take all of us to have peace on our side.
And everytime they drop a bomb
killing children and innocents
till it’s gone
And there’s no end in sight
because of pre-emptive strike.
So way to go look what you’ve done.
It’s us against them
and nobodies won
and no one can hide
all this genocide.
Beef up the security,
Send in the military
be big players on the world stage
it’s nations with weapons in rage
And no matter how hard we try.
It’ll take all of us to have peace on our side.

Cosmic Dust
ignition everywhere. I’ve been hearin bleeding eardrums. compound
everybody talking bout the same things,
everybody knows just what the new day brings.
better smarten up right now my friend better know what your leaving behind.
better smartin up my friend. Better realize that in the end it’s you.
take a look around. at what we’ve found and what we’ve made of ourselves
and think where’s your place in this do you know where you’ll go
will you take the risk and go where your heart knows who knows but you
will find out and you’ll realize
if you’ve gone astray or fakin all this time so
realize your dreams. You cheesy bastard you, you know it ain’t what it seems.
we’ll find ourselves ome way.
Hopefully the easy way and not the too complicated way.
I’ll take the risk my dear. I”ll take it without fear or any tears
and I got the time for you. All the things that you do.
The things I plan on going through and I realize my friend
I see it’s just you and me and all these little tradgedies
so lets be strong at everything you do
know that it’s all everbodies everything and everyone is ever going through
It relation; understanding all the nations.
get our minds together
all kinds of weather we aint suffering any other kind of universal separation
so collaborate yourselves and realize the change and rearrange
you know the actions must be done
we are the lazy ones and you know when we realize the change
it’ll inevitably come to us for all to share
and survival of the fittest is still there
it’s just you and me and all of us this universe and cosmic dust.

Ain't Got No Money

Ain’t got no money
Ain’t got no money to follow you
Honey that’s all
And I can’t decide if it’s real
It ain’t funny at all
You better believe it I can conceive it
Realize you I can despise you
After so many wasted days of mine
And so many wasted paces of mine
I can’t see too many feelings this time
I should have know you were empty inside your mind
So honey I’m through with you
I guess I kind of regret meeting you
But I won’t waste anymore time
Thinking of you
You better believe it I can conceive it
Realize you I can despise you
After so many wasted days of mine
And so many wasted paces of mine
Ain’t got no money to follow you
Honey that’s all
And I can’t decide if it’s real
It ain’t funny at all

Lupa Song
Listen darling I’ve got something to say to you,
All the good things and bad things you do,
Amount to something. The building blocks of you.
And all the good things, I see it in your smile.
And all the bad things you’ll forget after a while.
Amount to something the building blocks of you.
You’re the sweetest girl that I have ever known.
Your surprise, a creation of your own.
Tell me darling all these things you know.
The sweetest things in life fall from your hands.
It all depends on the position that you stand.
I know one thing all these things you do, I contribute to,
And all the good things you’ll see it in my smile.
All the bad things I’ll forget after a while
Tell me darling what is it in your smile?
You’re the sweetest girl that I have ever known.
Your surprise, a creation of your own.
Tell me darling all these things you know as you grow.
You’re my darling no one can take that away you’re the best thing
It’s easy just to say you’re my darling will you stay this way?

Country Song
I’ve been sitting on the country side
Contemplating my life
Thinking about the sun outside
watching things just pass me by
Oh I love my country side
there I can take the time
Think about things that I’ve done
Where I think I belong
Future gone and futures passed
happy memories last
time to think about
all the things I could do without
I don’t know where days have gone
living in the city where things are wrong
how I love the country side
where it feels I like my life
things of past and things to come
givin and the getting some
I can see so far and there’s no one near
It’s amazing there’s not much to hear
here’s a place where you feel no fear
Cept inner demons in your tears

Groovey
I’ve been waiting for this thing a long time.
Knew I could play music and I rhyme.
People talking what I’m about.
Well these illusions, I’ll do with-out.
Nothing else gives me this satisfaction.
Writing music’s just cause and reaction.
I’ll just continue creating sounds.
Until I reach a higher ground.
So I thought I might have people hear it.
And perhaps they would like to get near to it.
Even better if they could agree with it, oh shit.
So all the things I say better adhere to it

Manifest Destiny

Turn off your cell phones please
turn off your laptops in the trees
Just wanna hear the breeze
Birds singing, buzzing bees
But everywhere I go, radio.
And everything I see tonight
Is disappointing me because I
I just came to the woods to be
Because I want to live naturally.
I think the weather is the only truth
Unless it’s coming from one of you
Only believe what is
What's passed what there ever is
Wherever I may go
Who knows
And everything I see tonight
Is fascinating me because I found
Endless opportunity
When I
Manifest destiny.

Now & Then
03:18

Now & Then
I’ve been searching
looking, trying to find
something in this cityline
that does something positive
to my mind
Instead of dwelling in the negative
of humankind.
Now and then
which is practically always
I think about
the good ol days,
and wonder where they went.
And sometimes
I’ll find myself reeling
trying to recreate the feeling
only to find myself spent.
Its days like these, I’ll go out to the trees.
Recharge my batteries and alter the way I see.
It’s good to be grateful, harmful to be hateful
and the key to my freedom belongs to me.
Gonna follow my road, pass the crossroads
I’m not gonna falter I’m gonna be bold
And if the path leads to no where
well at least I’ll get there
Gonna shape my reality until I impload.
There’s gonna be shit that’ll drag me down,
confuse me dilute me or make me unsound.
And if I can I’ll try to deny it, or maybe I’ll hide it somewhere in the ground.

Please Me

Please me
Can I ask you a favor
Can you think about me love?
When I see your behavior
Well it confuses me a lot.
Don’t you know there’s others out there
Don’t you know that we’ve been waiting love.
Get your head on love.
If there’s something there your not quite sure of
Please me or leave.
Tell me does it occur,
There may be someone else out for you love.
Maybe it happens I’m not sure
Maybe your out there looking do you love?
I’m having trouble just believing
That you, your not leaving love.
Get your head on love.
If there’s something there your not quite sure of
Please me or leave.
Oh have mercy love
You know it hurts me a lot
Please me or leave
It’s been like this for quite a while
And this is nothing new to me love.
Don’t you notice I don’t smile,
Quite as much
As I used to love
I don’t know how much longer
I can wait for you to come around

Take this opportunity
Its not going to come along everyday.
Its only one possibility
So grab it when it comes your way.
There’s hope for us somewhere,
And time will tell us when to go
Listen to your intuition darlin
And you can be sure when you leave I will follow
Because in due time
Our struggles will end
There’s riche somewhere just
Awaiting us friend
I’ve got no doubt about what
The future will hold
So lets just sit back
And watch it unfold
There’s hope for us somewhere,
And time will tell us when to go
Listen to your intuition darlin
And you can be sure when you leave I will follow

I Doubt It
03:23

Met a lot of faces. People I don’t know.
Been a lot of places. I probably shouldn’t go.
And I realize we’re all slightly traumatized
But that doesn’t mean I should know
You might question what I’m doing with my life, well I don’t doubt it.
Well I don’t need to focus on all of that strife, I’ll do without it.
I’ve seen a lot of races
Cultures I don’t know.
In vast and crowded places,
Where boundaries don’t grow.
And I realize it’s all slightly problematic
But that doesn’t mean we should go.
You might question what I’m doing with my life, but I doubt it.
You don’t need to focus on all of that strife, you’ll do without it.
I’ve seen many good things come to those who wait.
Those kind of life changing things that transform our fate.
And I realize we’re all slightly micro-sized,
But that doesn’t mean we should grow.
You might question what I’m doing with my life, but I doubt it.
I don’t need to focus on all of that strife, I’ll do without it.

I love you
I don’t know
Just who you are
So I thought I’d ask you, ask you
because I love you, love you
SO what am I to do
I’ve laid it all out for you
After time love
We got along
Yah half the time we got along
Yeas after time half the time
we got along love
after time we got along
So here’s to love here’s to all that will follow
when the tables have turned
and I hear you call out
I love you, love you
But you don’t know who I am, I am
so what are you to do?

Your heads a turning,

Your perception, pure sensation.

Sketchy PCP (2x)
Wind me up untie me,
don’t try to confine me.
Circlin yellin, screamin and smellin.
Sketchy PCP, sketchy PCP
Sicko crystal meth
Puss is drainin scabs are bleedin,
you seem tired yet still your so wired
Sicko crystal meth.
You’re an ill one crystal meth.
Crook crack
Another rock to burn another dime less earned.
Stuck in the doorway I guess that’s just your way of proven what you’ve learned. Crook crack
Mellow THC
Kind of makes me hungry.
Eternally giggly.
Contemplative, also in a state of mellow. THC.
