LYRICS
Love that’s made from first aid
Live your life like you wouldn’t trade
Put yourself out… don’t be afraid
Step it up… raise your grade
Guaranteed you’ll be repaid
You weren’t meant to wade
Dive in before you fade

There was a little engine
That thought he could
He could use a little push
If you would

There was a little imagine
A thought that would
2 in the hand
Verses 1 in the bush

Understand
Imagine

Please do not resist the assist
A request for aid
Has been made

Offering heart felt help

LYRICS
If you’re feeling blue
There’s something you can do
Just turn the corner
(remember turn the corner)
Up, up, up, up, up
And, smile a while

Splash on some happiness
Let it wash over you
Overcome. Be overlord
Of the darkness

Awash in the happiness
Part of the song and dance crew
Overcome. Never board.
Smack on the lips with a happiness kiss

At the end of your lips
The corner of your lips
Do away with the dips
Turn it up a bit

In both ears
And, out another
Without a doubt
Below the snout
Open the orifice
On your face
And, shout

An angelic thing where ya hear the air sing

LYRICS
I was…
Naked. Tied-up.
Bound and gagged
In the back of your mother’s station wagon
Hang-on
Lights are flashing
The spot light is on
Officer says, “What’s going on?”

Now, you’ve changed
How you’ve changed
Your mind rearranged
(You’re) estranged

Oh, no
She went psycho
Joined the Puritan Police
Now, I need a release

Oh, let my daughter go
’cause you know
You went psycho

You use to be some fun
But, now
People run!

You ain’t no superhero
With that super, super ego
No. No. No.

Janet, try your switch
’cause less is on

LYRICS
If you have a care for me
I will have a care for you
Together we can see it through
Weather it through any sea

I must have a care for you
It’s the very least to do
Thank you for helping me to see

Ate compassionate for breakfast
Gotta hunch I’ll have it for lunch
Can you stop by before the supper that’s last?

Feel deep before we’re past

Dive deep into your heart
And, part the see

If You Give A Care.mp3

ABOUT THE SONG
C / F / E

Written and recorded August 25, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

It’s about love reciprocity. The album name “Natural Producer” has to do with the engineering and production of the music. Since the music is hoped to be *God Inspired*, names like deity, spirit, divinity, supernatural being and idol producer came to mind; however, that sounded too vain. So, what am I compared to the Supernatural Being Producer?

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.

LYRICS
When needed
The Good come together
Combined
Faith in humanity

Then, greeted
By God. All together. Aligned.
Clarity transparency

Spirits drifting together
Arise the tide
Faith from the inside
Washing cruelty out
The angels shout
The stars shine brighter
Then ever before
A the love comes together
Forever more

Making love to love to love to love to love….

Written and recorded August 22, 2012 in West Chester, Pennsylvania. It is based on a quote from the Book Of Daniel:

Daniel 12

New International Version (NIV)
The End Times

12 “At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book —will be delivered. 2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt. 3 Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever. 4 But you, Daniel, roll up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge.”

LYRICS
Though optimum would be ideal
That “I am” has enough appeal
Since for the wicked there is no rest
Pray, say and sway toward the best

Optimism — me
You
Look through the clouds
And, the sky is blue

And, the sky above is blue
Let the light shine through
Past the silver lining
It’s all in the timing

Optimismme
See the light shine though
Beautiful view

’cause there is something about you

’cause there is something about you
that makes me want to dance

The sparkle. The Twinkle. The glimmer in your eye
The uplift of your riff. The glimmer of your I.

’cause there is something about you
that makes me everything
’cause there is something about you
that makes me risk a chance

The sparkle. The Twinkle. The glimmer in your eye
The gift of your lift. The answer to my why.

Try n’ listen to what She’ll say
Man-you-factor of love
Great work. Great pay.

There’s no need for gloves

Turning love into reality

You’re way to wacky
Not to survive
You’re the one always trying…
You always strive to survive
Stay alive
Way outside the norm
You’ll weather their storm

Let them say what they want to say about you
You’re the one whose heart is true
You have equal rights
Not to be equal
Equality doesn’t mean neutral
