LYRICS
As a matter of fact
The front and back
In relativity
Are exactly
The same
Your reference frame

The start or stop
Bottom or top
In relativity
Are exactly
The same
Your reference frame

Why have a fight
Over left or right
In relativity
Are exactly
The same
Your reference frame

The distance
In frame of reference
The individuality
In you to me

LYRICS
As they pick up the fear
Kict-it into gear
Overdrive
Plunge and dive
With hands as fast as lightning
World’s a little less frightening
With wit to cut to the quick
Sense of humor’s sick

As they pick up the fear
Better seer clear
On the verge
Adrenaline surge

As they pick up the fear
Virtue hold dear
Overdrive
Staying alive

LYRICS
Do you hear war drums
Cat n’ dog at it again?
Flash of firing guns
Let the war games begin!
Once cannonballs are flying
Youth rising are dying
Time we end the debate
Over hate
(No debate. End the hate.)
The left and the right
In the middle between their fight
Brings out the fright
They may never see the light
Dropping like flies
Got our rights in their sights
Everyone dies
They say,
“Live to fight another day”

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Cut to the quick
Which weighs more
A pound of feather or a pound of brick
Think quick
Which ways more
A pound of flesh or hung neck crick
Cut to the quick
Think quick
Weighs on the mind
Ways on the mine
Untangle the tango fiasco
Dance to the beat of a different drum
’til I shake the feeling of being:numb
With the next grasp, clasp
Freedom

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
We breath in
We breath out
There’s no doubt
In and out
Answer a question,
If you would please
Is being human
A fatal disease?

A heartbeat
Carries blood
From our head
To our feet
Answer a question,
If you would please
Is being human
A fatal disease?

And we learn
We are born
Then we die…
It’s no lie
Answer a question,
If you would please
Is being human
A fatal disease?

LYRICS
Over land and over sea
Understand and see
Over sand, through tree
Understand and see
Freedom is free
It’s bred in you
It’s bred in me
Forget about destiny
An unalienable right
Through the darkest night
Insight hold tight
Gnarl teeth and bit
Haste the taste
No time to waste
We’re free to be free

LYRICS
What do you do when you’re overdue?
Run as fast as you can
What do you do when you’ve got to get through?
Run as fast as you can

We run and we run
With all our might
We run and we run
’til we see the light

What do we do when they #uck-up the view?
Run as fast as you can
What do we do if their aim is true
Run as fast as you can
(chorus)

What do we do to lead the way?
Run as fast as we can
What do we do all night and day?
Run as fast as we can
(chorus)

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
This is it, believe it or not
They say, “you get what you pay…
For.”
though sometimes it’s more —
How much you can endure
This is it. Quit if a bore
Transit to alure
And ensure
“What’s in store”?
Then the admission:
“Well worth the price of admission!”
In excess of a 3-ring-circus
The fairway’s way
Get to know the sideshow
Going down slow….

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
IF you’re eating free samples
Taking more than ample
Now, the after taste
Results in such a waste
Move on. Move along.

When you’re at a buffet
“Are your eyes bigger”
Do they say?
Now, the after taste
Results in such a waste
Move on. Move along.

Should they say “glutton for punishment”
Do you know what is meant
Represent?
Does the after taste
Result in such a waste
Didn’t… take the hint

LYRICS
O.K. I get it
If I let it
It will end up
Growing on me
We’ll be
And, it comes at the cost of free
Freedom
We’ll all be free
Free them!

O.K. I get it
If I let it
It will end up
Growing on me
We’ll be
What’s the cost to be free?

Thus, it’s us
Will we?
Free them
Freedom
Thus, it’s us

LYRICS
Walled-off in his “emperor’s clothes”
His heart is empty
His mind is closed
He doesn’t seem to know
His seams don’t show
Bare-assed and dangerous
The wolf in wolf’s clothing
… clinging…
To the darkness
They say he has no vertebrae
Yet, he thinks he rules the day
The king of the worms squirms
Drained his swamp
Mad, he stomps
Coldblooded crawl
Cold hearted claw
Ate procrastinate to stall
But, after all…
We all heed the call

Will you find the answer
What are you looking for?
No, mam. Yes, sir.
Dig deeper for more
Submerge in the solution

In your time
The riddle… the rhyme
On the verge
Submerge
Into the solution solution
Pre or post hallucination
Into a success vortex
Whirling solution solution

LYRICS
… the long and short of it:
We did what we did
That’s it
The long and short of it
Period

Now what will we do
To come to the rescue
Rescue you
Rescue me
To save us from our collective “we”
That’s the long and short of it
That’s it
The long and short of it
Period

Let us — soup to nuts
The whole ball of wax
As just the basic facts
That’s the long and short of it
That’s it
The long and short of it
Period

LYRICS
Must get through
Right here! Right Now!
Somehow
It’s what we have to do
… get through
’cause it’s what we have to do
Me, you… we
HAVE TO!
And for the next while
Somehow
Have to get the message through
WE DO! (It’s overdue)
We’ll try to keep it simple
Won’t deviate from the principle
Right here, right now!
“AWAKE!
… our future’s at stake”

LYRICS
Is anyone listing
Any *one* anywhere
Over here
Over there
… in the wind… whistling
Is anyone listing?

Wouldn’t it be a travesty
If you dumped your tragedy
On me

Searching for a strategy
To save us from your tragedy
On we

Bridge the gap to reality
To serve from your destiny
Agony

Is anyone listing?
Is anyone?
Listening!
