Looker (Ode To Richard Dawkins)

Posted on August 1, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
I look to the sky to see what’s ahead
Nothing but blue skies in bed
Look at the bright side… you could wake up dead

Chorus
I look to the ground and see where’s my head
So glad we have evolved… no need to dread
More apt to adapt if you strive to stay alive
More likely to survive if we strive to thrive

I look out of me to see if I can see
I look inside of me to see what I’ll be
Look at the bright side… I got to be me
And, you? You, too!

Chorus

Believe

Posted on March 31, 2013November 15, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
You can believe in what you want to believe in
As long as your believe
Or else you’ll be *it*
A hypocrite

Do you have faith in what you believe
Then you’d better believe
You better believe in what you believe
Or that’s it
You’re the hypocrite

Do you want to believe in yourself
Then, go right ahead
As long as you believe in what you believe
Do you want to believe in God Almighty above
Then, go ahead
As long as you believe in what you believe
’cause there is this universal love
As long as you believe

Whether you want to believe it’s God above
Or, you believe it’s in your heart
As long as you start
Believe in what you believe

Let’s believe
We can relieve
The pain and suffering
Letting the love in
If you believe

You can believe in what you want to believe in
As long as your believe
We can believe if you believe
In the power of love

Close

Posted on February 19, 2013February 19, 2013 by admin

LYRICS
How close are you?

It feels as though you’re in my skin
Washing away every sin
How close are you?

How close
How close
How close are you?

It feels as though you’re with me in everything I do
I really want to know, “How close are you?”

How close are you?

Is there anything you can do?

When I am alive
I think we jive
Our flesh is mesh
As we mesh flesh

Faith In Hope

Posted on November 7, 2012November 7, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
Faith in hope
Hope in faith
I have hope in hope
Faith that hope holds true

Within you skin’s underneath
Bare the soul that’s within you
Release the love from within the bloke
Faith that life’s not a joke
Hope that mankind learns to cope

Hoping Faithfully

Shy of pride
Fashion of compassion
String as an oak
Weaving threads into rope
Bringing peace to Earth
Faith in hope
Hope in faith

Spreading smiles and mirth
Hoping to spread the faith

Hoping Faithfully

What Do I Believe In?

Posted on September 27, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
What do I believe in?
I believe in the freedom of speech
That let’s me speak my mind
My right to point out someone viscous, savage… or kind
I believe in the freedom to believe in religion
Or the those that choose no diving discipline
My God!
Believin’ in believing in believing

I believe I can walk the walk
Given the freedom to talk, talk, talk
I don’t believe a bit in being a hypocrite
I do believe we should teach the children this bit

Glowing In The Heart

LYRICS
You can part
You can part
When you’re glowing in the heart

You can part any sea
Turn water to wine
Create a feast for the hungry to dine

The miracles you’ll spark
When you’re glowing in the heart
The hearts you’ll start
When you’re glowing in the dark

Emotional smarts
Spiritual larks
Take flight
Light the night

When you’ve got to pray
What do you sayhttp://idea.membrane.com/songwriter/wp-admin/post.php?post=2068&action=edit
Ask for assistance?
An ass that’s insistent?

I understand you’re short on hands
So, before I pass away
What can I do for you today?

Don’t Give Up

Posted on August 25, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
Transposing letters to numbers
Transposing the numbers into my name
While intelligence slumbers
It’s turned into a mental game

Don’t give up
Half empty or half full is your cup?
Don’t give up

When they try to give you the run-around
You know the answer can be found
No matter the resistance
Win them over with persistence
Don’t give up

Put you on hold ’till you grow mold
Ask you to please, please, please wait
Nooooo… don’t drop the line yet another time
We shall overcome without hate

Don’t give up
Half empty or half full is your cup?
Don’t give up

Don’t Give-up.mp3

ABOUT THIS SONG
Em / E sus 2
B A G F# Em
Em / Dm

Written and recorded on August 22, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania. It is based on studies that show positive thinking leads to a positive outcome:

Positive thinking: Reduce stress by eliminating negative self-talk
Positive thinking helps with stress management and can even improve your health.
By Mayo Clinic staff

Is your glass half-empty or half-full? How you answer this age-old question about positive thinking may reflect your outlook on life, your attitude toward yourself, and whether you’re optimistic or pessimistic — and it may even affect your health.

Indeed, some studies show that personality traits like optimism and pessimism can affect many areas of your health and well-being. The positive thinking that typically comes with optimism is a key part of effective stress management. And effective stress management is associated with many health benefits. If you tend to be pessimistic, don’t despair — you can learn positive thinking skills.

Fear Not

Posted on July 22, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
Are you afraid to open your door
See people hurting like never before
Are you afraid to answer the phone
Hear the moan become a constant drone

Are you afraid to show your face
Tired of being made a public disgrace
Are you afraid to communicate
The wrong way on a one-way
Bombarded with hate, hate, thate

Then, please don’t hesitate
To call on God. Let Her mediate.

The place is here. The time is now.
Believe She’ll hear… She does somehow

God’s good grace. The mercy upon you.
Redeem your scene to heavenly… see!

Why not fear not?

Peace

Posted on July 17, 2012July 17, 2012 by admin

LYRICS
Have you heard what they did?
Marched her up a pyramid
’till they screamed for more
Split her skin wide open
Exposing blood and gore

Have you heard what they’ve done?
Locked her in a dungeon
Brought the dragon in
Disgracing the glen
With disdain and sin

Have you heard what they do?
Please take upon my peace pipe
Lit with magic stick
and, offer it, offer it, offer it up a bit

Sacrament
Sacrifice
You decide which is right
Sacrament
Will suffice
In shedding the light

Peace .mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 2
E / B
E / B / G / A / E
E / G / A / E

Written and recorded on July 16, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

“Human sacrifice was a religious practice characteristic of pre-Columbian Aztec civilization, as well as of other mesoamerican civilizations such as the Maya and the Zapotec.” “Heart-extraction was viewed as a means of liberating the istli and reuniting it with the Sun, as depicted in Codex Magliabechiano, Folio 70 (illustrated in this section), wherein a victim’s transformed heart flies Sunward on a trail of blood.” “The Aztecs would give a series of rituals to unlucky nearby tribesman to be sacrificed with an obsidian knife, and donate their blood to Acolnahuacatl, an Aztec god. When they had known he had finished his drink and he was no longer thirsty, they would end the sacrificing. This ritual would go on for a whole weekend, so as to please the gods.”

A sacrament is “a Rite in which God is uniquely active”

“A calumet is a ceremonial smoking pipe used by some Native American nations. Traditionally it has been smoked to seal a covenant or treaty, or to offer prayers in a religious ceremony.”
