I am not much of a social acolyteI’m not a follower, no clout parasiteNo member of the cult of personalityLife on my own terms, no strings holding me Seeing perspectives, more than just my ownBrings benefits through which I have grownTaught lessons and skillful means were honedRescue and saved me as time has shown They often say too open a mind makes the brain fall outBut I say seeing more than self better the systems flout Because you cannot trick a mind equipped with a wide viewBecause you cannot leave behind who runs ahead the queueBecause you cannot circumvent critical […]
Track title: Granny
Granny, why do you live so far away?I never really know just what to sayI never really wanted it to be this way“These are the only cards I have to play” A false conversation that plays in my mindOf a family that isn’t, history ain’t kind Granny, why can’t I just talk to you?It’s not my decision; I’d never do that, booThere is a middleman who I cannot get throughWith terms and conditions for me to imbue Though touting a battle cry of unconditional loveStill keeping me away, steel hand in velvet glove Granny, why won’t you live with us?Sweetie, […]
Track title: Sublime
It’s just life, it’s gonna be okayStill got tomorrow in just a dayLooking forward holds shadows at bayReminds it won’t always be this way Life is a process moving forwardTo let it digress loses rewardThen the quiesce all energy storedDeath comes when you’re no longer toward Our stubborn persistence gives us a chanceOur struggle, resistance, remember to dance This magical blink that we call lifeIn which we’re all linked, in which we striveNeed us to forethink, so we shall thriveTogether uplink, refactor the drive And this is the way, for me and youDiscover ballet, dance our way throughDiscover broadway, the […]
Track title: Rearview
Of hearts in life there were never manyThey came then went much like bad penniesI gave up the effort around age twentyWell I say it, then in three years… progeny His names would change, he acted so strangeHe’d often derange, claiming the world to arrangeAs for me, there was never any rest in sightRaise my child while trying to keep him upright Of course it fell apart, as usually it does doOn my own again, but not quite cause now there’s two So many years gone from me, just blurs of time remainDisassociated identities running rife in my brainLittle Star […]

Track title: Isegoria
To be ostracized was supposed to be a ten year sentenceRaise hands to sky, I’m closing sixty, and still doing penanceWe should remind ourselves that isonomia is not isegoriaDon’t sleep on this just because the new words may bore ya When Solon lived corrupted courts went against the poor every timeGovernment and military abusing, not once would they catch a fineSolon cleared all debt but he also the crafted rule of lawDistinctions soon breed new dissent as those pillars begin to fall Cleisthenes then arrived to better set his suitA people’s revolution by greed eventually was mootAs long before and […]

Track title: >Fleet Rendition
Tale old as time, looking for affectionProblem making humanity connectionCulture and society say I’m an infraction Connection always mattered to meWithout it life is a subtraction All walk this odd multiverse abstractionAll call from within their own afflictionAll seek to be more than fleet renditionStrive to connect and find out our life mission Simple witness, so let us speak with simplicityFind your inner truth or seek in others endlessly Circles within circles, cycle, and kalpas, tooEffects of all the causes, they come, return home to rueThere still is a path through all of this, for me and youMeet me in […]
