SUMMERTIME

Its summer time
walk down the street with the sun in your eyes,
each person you meet is a pleasant surprise
as your under the sky
oooh summertime,
hot off the street in the shade cool your feet,
the smell it's so sweet as you walk any
and my senses arise.
the days are so long, but they're gone in a minute
and i don't care either way,
as long as theres one more day
and i get to be in it
oooh summertime
where have you been
I thought you were my friend,
I thought winter would never end
and I'd do it again
it's summertime
day turns to dusk in the warm evening hush
pink candy sky, twilight is nigh
and it's just you and I

Poison

Poison
All the poison in the skies
manifests by dread and lies
As our leaders compromise
Every thing that matters
There are times it really feels
That there's nothing more than deals
And no one wants to say the real
Unless, the mask, it flatters.
If you haven't had enough
I guess your heart has grown too tough
your mind preoccupied with STUFF
And how to climb
the ladders.
If we, those "leaders" criticize,
They dodge and dance and proselytize
Until you can't tell truth from lies...
Well? Can you see a pattern?
The ladders that they make us climb
Were built to waste away our time
Distractions, lies no reason or rhyme
They're leaving truth in tatters.
Children, in the future cry,
"why'd we let our planet die?"
We made a bed of greed and lies
..And left your future shattered

Mother

Mother I know I was made from your love
I know I came from your hopes and your dreams
I wanted to see you the voice that I heard
Deep in your womb
In my short time on earth.
Oh mother, I'm sorry
Oh mother, I'm so sorry.
Mother it's true that you suffered and cried.
Theres no way that you could have known
that I was not destined to go for this ride
but I didn't mean
to leave you all alone.
Oh Mother,
Keep on smiling.
Don't you know? I had a higher calling.
I was born to be an angel, can't you see?
I was born to watch over you...
Even in tears.
Once you believed in me one you could see.
All of the things that you knew i could be,
But what we accomplished in Love while we could
was more than enough
for forever for me.
Chorus.
Repeat first verse,.

Whiskey

Dont bring the whiskey to the table
Its a better judgment call
and it shows that you are strong and able
So stop right there
and show you care
Be the hero of this fable and
dont bring the whiskey to the table.

With my heart and soul I wish you
Love to make you strong
to help in darkness see the sunshine
give your heart a song
I want to fill your heart with love
and open up your eyes
give you tools to heal yourself
and help you to be wise
cause what you are to me,
I wish you could see,
you're perfect and complete.
When you're caught in peals of laughter,
sunshine in your face
How I love that we're together,
In this human race.
But when the tears come streaming down,
and the skies turn cold,
just remember, right behind's
the rainbow and the gold.
Chorus
Perfect and complete.

Rape Me
04:33

Hes born of the mother, drinks of the water, lives in the city
Dreams of vacations, works in the government, doesn’t know his family.
Distilled in the sadness, he drowns in the liquor, breathes in the brown air
Lives in detachment, dogs in the basement makes all those laws somewhere
But he’s a good servant and hes a good Christian
and he works so hard to make everything fine.
He’s lost his heart light feels no inspiration,
he doesn’t notice life’s left him behind-
Working ideas that no longer serve lost the integrity none in reserve
Where is the spirit and where is the nerve?
Rape me Rape me Rape me with society’s laws
Take from me take from me, Liberties and call them flaws
Rape me Rape me Take away the power from me
If you don’t trust me, how do you expect me to be.
Why is it written in all of his pages that I am not able to think for myself
Try to protect me from all of the dangers,
those good intentions are books on a shelf.
Mislead and frighten these are the powers that be
Born of the ideas of what they thought we should be
Trust me trust me maybe life knows better than you
I am a citizen but I am a person too.
I try to listen to all life around me, Try to decipher the real from the rule
But I can hear nothing in all of the clamour Perhaps like the sad man I too am a tool?
I dont wanna be like the policy maker, can’t see beyond the nose on his face
Don’t wanna be like the girl in the cell block- chose to try living and now is disgraced
Rape me rape Rape me with Society’s laws
Take from me, take from me liberties and call them flaws
Free me free me you’d be surprised what I can do
If you free me, maybe I could help free you,
Why is it written in all of your pages, that I am not able to care for myself
Want me to slide through all of your stages Try to arrange me like books on a shelf.
You have a document and you have a gun And there is a passion and I have a voice
It is my body and it is my intellect And one of those papers says I have a choice
Rape me Rape me Take away the power from me
If you don’t trust me how do you expect me to be
Trust me trust me maybe life knows better than you
I am a citizen, but I am a person too.
