      Part of me just knows this is silly and won’t work out

      I don’t care anymore though, it’s time to get up and shout

      The lyrics are a work in progress, as many things are

      Constant work can allow you to go far

      Don’t rely on talent too much, especially if you’re not wealthy

      With the money they can throw around they can make anyone’s sound healthy

      NEW PLACE

      Save me from this new place

      The one I didn’t ask to take

      Others will soon know

      What it means

      How long it will last

      The beginnings are starting to show

      This is a paradigm Indeed

      With a window to the unforeseen

      The Illusion is overwhelming

      But it is only for a temporary dwelling

      A bright habitat that evokes new life

      Amazing opportunity that shows its might

      Angels appear in many forms

      I knew one my whole life, the image no longer scorned

      Press on with faithful modesty

      Hopeful spring in the land of uncertainty

      Bring it to the table so we can dine together

      All of us, Sister and Brother

      Farther out still though with some time to spare

      Evil looks and stares descend upon the madness that begins to bear

      NEW POSE

      The Irish Unicorn struck a new pose

      While refusing to wear pantyhose

      This is a strange game you play with yourself while on the road

      Your intentions are good, not too frequently I’ve been told

      It’s endless though, the consummation of the deal

      The warrantless search by the joker, broke the mended heal

      It’s apparent to me young man you have no idea what you’re doing

      Your response is predictable as ever, even when I don’t know where you going

      Keep the flow going while trying to stay alive

      Even it if doesn’t work out, you have to strive

      For not just your fun, but others as well

      We’ll all be better off without worrying about something to sell

      That’s it stupid boy, you’re not taking this seriously

      I’m the Devil you know, let’s continue the deal seamlessly

      Now who is who in this crazy game?

      Neither one of the characters fits my name

      Related to both by nature of experience

      With belly full and future on the rise, we must make the leap this instant

      The pilgrimage half through

      To a show, thankfully much better than “the View”

      A fellow fun person who likes to get goofy and dance

      I am hoping she can give me my chance

      At a better life, whatever that means

      Or at least one where my art is not just in my dreams

      Is he Jesus? No he’s just a guy

      How do people even know which one to try?

      I’m just me and that’s all I know how to do

      Can’t always worry about what others’ choices are for you

      OPPORTUNITY

      Fairly cartoonish endeavor that has begun to hover

      Above the clouds, illuminating colors like butter

      Practical feistiness by the ones in charge, brings a sporadic crowd, that’s more than lack luster

      But soon the opportunity will present

      With all of us in on the payment

      The reward for finally achieving the true objective

      Bring him back soul and all, and you’ll be on the Heaven Selective

      Although the impatience can be demoralizing

      All this talk, too much analyzing

      Have to forget much of what we learned

      The reality that we likely to deny, it’s really about the money earned

      Feast on it Wolves, while you still can

      Those who are too greedy won’t be part of the next plan

      PARADE

      The late morning parade will be the talk of the day

      Even though it’s a charade celebrating this way

      What are they so proud of?

      Winning the war? Conquering new territory?

      Did the helping hand get extended?

      To the needy group whose life on this planet needed to be amended

      It’s hard to ask the proper question

      To engage in some sort of worthwhile mission

      No longer in love with this place

      Too many idiots running the chase

      But of course, I’m still a member of the American Race

      Forging a new beginning will be difficult

      The others look down coldly on those who leave this big fine cult

      Keep in align, if you disagree too much, then you can get out

      Following every order our leaders say is what we seem to be about

      But not me anymore,

      Exercising my right to preach my voice is my way to settle the score

      PATH

      In the end, can there be just one

      Wouldn’t be much fun

      We were meant to live together

      Although you wouldn’t know it by the way we treat our brother

      Why is staring at a screen the path to enlightenment

      Or is it not; we’re instead on the search for contentment

      Our goals no longer seem to have any purpose

      The only thing is more money, what crap your woman has in her purse

      There’s too much to do before being carried away in a Hurse

      Am I alone in this view?

      Don’t want to ruffle too many feathers or they might sue

      Except I don’t have any money to give you

      It’s not easy when you have to constantly work to survive

      People in power can hand the reigns to their kin, no matter their sin, and that simply doesn’t jive

      The elites think they had it tough

      Learning which private school to send your kids, must be rough

      But soon the imbalance will change

      Workers taking their rightful place upon the stage

      PLANET

      Hello far reaching planet of the current age

      It is time to build your stage

      The era is over for the wolves in power

      Do they ever take a shower?

      Feel the placement with certainty

      This is it! She yelled, listen to me

      You’ve made it to this place without interruption

      But now the toxic endeavors are striving for exploration

      WE HAVE TO MAKE IT NOW

      NO ONE IS GOING TO SHOW US HOW

      RISE UP AND TAKE A STAND

      EVEN IF NO ONE TAKES YOUR HAND

      We haven’t seen the enlightened one since before the first classical age

      But, now confusion sets in, who has the right, no one can say

      The mystical prince from the dying star of old

      Has seen too much, to do as told

      Proclaim it now before it’s too late

      Wolves never hesitate

      They’re eager to keep their place

      As the UNCHOSEN –Choice few

      Nobody else seems to really like their tune

      But as you know, it is not up to you

      WE HAVE TO MAKE IT NOW

      NOT ONE IS GOING TO SHOW US HOW

      RISE UP AND TAKE A STAND

      EVEN IF NO ONE TAKES YOUR HAND

      The Headless Horseman laughs with excitement

      As the machine operators hide their contempt

      The wolves’ followers are easily kept in line

      Just throw ‘em a bone once in a while,

      It will save some time

      But before the enlightened one can reappear

      The wolves go and put a new tax on beer

      WE HAVE TO MAKE IT NOW

      NOT ONE IS GOING TO SHOW US HOW

      RISE
    UP AND TAKE A STAND

      EVEN IF NO ONE TAKES YOUR HAND

      SHIT, SHOWER AND SHAVE

      Five days of fun building up strong

      But must have done somebody wrong

      It’s time to refocus, heading back to my cave

      Not ever ready for this kind of rave

      After that cheeseburger and beer

      And a little weed to cure the fear

      It will be time for a shit, shower and Shave

      Shit, shower and shave

      It’s the best way to pave

      A new fresh beginning and

      Forgetting the untold stories

      From across the maze

      It’s time for a shit, shower and shave

      Visit the city for just a few days, then got to get on out

      So many damn people running all over the place, makes me wanna shout

      I like more the slow pace of things, but rev it up once in a while

      It ain’t too bad us all getting together once in a while, we ain’t all that vile

      But the batteries need recharging,

      This is too much city, it seems to enslave

      It’s time to get on out

      Breathe some fresh air, and then home bound

      It’s time for a shit shower and shave

      Shit, shower and shave

      It’s the best way to pave

      A new fresh beginning and

      Forgetting the untold stories

      From across the maze

      It’s time for a shit, shower and shave

      QWEST

      The Qwest should have been spiritual all along

      Less worry about the money I’ll make with each song

      Human life means something

      Aged this many years as this person

      Others seem to hear my thoughts

      Even though I can’t see them, the mood seems distraught

      Where, whenever this place is, I have tried to live in harmony

      Don’t always do the right thing, but I know I don’t need a palace of ivory

      Put yourself in their shoes, was the expression I heard as a boy

      Now it seems to consume me as there are certain shoes I couldn’t begin to ploy

      Certain evil I feel, I stay out,

      But there are also others who do heroic work, day in day out

      I’m no saint, but no curse either

      This situation can produce The Fear

      My staying course is helping in some way, but the negative in the world,

      When in tune with it, makes me feel worse than just bored

      So I keep on trekking on

      Encouraging myself to write another song

      Maybe this will be the one that rights all the wrongs

      RAILWAY WALK

      Sitting on a rail in the middle of nowhere

      Wondering how my life got here

      She seemed good at first, but now I’m lost at best

      What comes next is anybody’s guess

      Clouds still gloom overhead,

      But, luckily with the serpent coiled around his neck the journey will take some out of him yet

      Now I’m sleeping under an overpass

      Watching as the cars drive past

      Contemplating these next few days ahead

      It seems to me that despite all that’s happened, there’s no need to dread

      It does look like the sun still will come up and life will go on another day

      It’s my fault this time, But with good fortune coming our way

      There’s no need to stop the play

      REFLECTIONS

      In accordance with those who used to know me

      I went in, so that I can now be free

      From the persecution I’ve felt most my life

      We all have our way of seeing the light

      The mightiest sword couldn’t strike those memories down

      Suffocating my thoughts; anyone would drown

      I choose not to bring others down with me

      But maybe I should, if those people continue to persecute me

      They know what they were like and how I was raised

      Forgiveness is something to be praised

      But continuing to try and make me feel bad, puts me in an awkward spot

      There are certain memories that shouldn’t be sought

      Just let it go, I know what I’m doing

      33 Years I’ve been growing

      RELIGION OF ROCK

      The beliefs that were sprung on me forcefully

      Never made much sense to me

      I always felt a deeper need to be free

      Mantras and fairy tales that were laid on thick

      I think one was about a talking stick

      Always left me feeling a little sick

      But the faith that always made the most sense

      I wasn’t always willing to bargain with

      It’s a little dirtier but exciting

      Enjoying one’s self is always inviting

      It does require some careful planning

      To avoid the excess drugs and drowning

      I’ve been through many of the crazy shit already

      So I’m more likely, to stay steady

      When it’s time to get crazy on your block

      Let’s practice the Religion of Rock

      YEAH……….whoa YEAH

      THE RELIGION OF ROCK

      WHOA YEAH, THE RELIGION OF ROCK

      NO NEED FOR A TALKING SOCK

      NO, IT’S THE RELIGON OF ROCK

      BE THE BADDEST ON YOUR BLOCK

      YEAH…IT’S THE RELIGION OF ROCK

      REPRESENT

      Pushing forward

      Aiming High

      Dreams are within reach

      But, it takes more than try

      Soon will have to go back to the grind, get a shit job, just to get by

      Not a member of the top group with the world as their oyster

      Impatience sets in like a bruised, bleeding blister

      People like me have to work for a living

      Mitt can push a few buttons and fire people like me, to make a killing

      But then there are people who make what I make that still vote for guys like Mitt

      He DOES NOT REPRESENT YOU, No matter how much you want to believe it

      Can’t understand the appeal of that kind of person

      Closing down a factory, laying people off, Just to give a commission to the yacht salesman

      Well, I don’t like the other guy, so I’m voting for him

      What the FUCK!? If you’re going to do that, vote for your neighbor, Jim

      I’d love to see that in the next Presidential election

      Millions of write in votes for a wide cross section

      Don’t just vote for somebody because of the flag they wave

      Vote for someone you know, someone you trust, that represents YOU, someone you’d be willing to save

      It’s your vote; you don’t have to vote for that guy

      And if you’re registered in one of the parties, make your voice heard, even in July

      Don’t just check away, because some elites far away are telling you, “This is OUR GUY”

      Who gives a FUCK if they represent the Elephant or Donkey Party?

      Do they truly represent US, ALL OF US, look at them honestly

      We all have our differences, that much is clear

      But allowing these two organizations to control our country has allowed us to be consumed with cynicism and fear

      We have the power, no matter what they say

      Let’s start changing thing right away,

      Starting today

      RESISTANCE

      Thought police round the corner

      They’ve made their conclusion; bit by bit, we’ve sold to the highest bidder

      In some cases not even selling, instead just being a quitter

      Resigned to the way things have been

      Oh well, it’s happening again

      We love our electronic toys more than life itself

    &
    nbsp; Stay oblivious to the lack of help

      March on without care to the clearly doomed future

      How many friends in the real world can we procure?

      The rising tide is gaining ground

      As we stumble around

      Worrying about nonsense that is always found

      Someday we’ll get it, hopefully not too late

      Remember, the Wolves will kill, rather than give food off their plate

      I know I’m not long for this world, and that’s okay

      Feeling at peace with my maker on this day

      RICH MOMNEY’S GOT A NEW BOAT

      Illustrious visions by the one in charge

      In ten to fifteen years we’ll start doing our part

      Until then, let’s burn up as much as we can, we all know there is no God’s plan

      If God did have an agenda

      I don’t think it would be for us to shit on his sofa

      The great gift we’ve been given

      And we expect more when it’s all gone

      Well Anyway, I’ll do my little part

      Speak my one voice; At least it’s a start

      Do you honestly think that gas will last forever?

      Do you honestly think intense heat and gas has no effect on the weather?

      It is not hopeless though, small changes can have a big effect

      There is still the problem of those who even when knowing what we know, still don’t give a shit

      I’d be suspicious of anyone who says to be religious but is willing to shit and spit where they sit

      Earth is our home for now

      No matter what you believe that is a fact all of us have to reckon with some how

      Well Anyway, I’ll do my little part

      Speak my one voice; At least it’s a start

      We all like to know what happens when we die

      Is that really the purpose of life, to constantly live a lie?

      I don’t care about death, I care about life

      Tired of all the talk about what happens when it’s all over

      The show is live now, let’s get together, have good times, worry about death and the end when our time is over

      Well Anyway, I’ll do my little part

      Speak my one voice; At least it’s a start

      IF you want to prey for someone, don’t waste them on me

      Prey for all the evil that still exist in the world, that is plain to see

      Wars with no purpose, starving and homeless people across the planet

      And, prey for Mitt Romney, there’s a new 80 foot yacht he’ll be happy sailing in

      The imbalance is so ridiculous and obvious, we have to do something right

      How bad does it have to get, all college grads working at Target

      A tiny group controls just about everything

      The reason we allow this is very unclear, not speaking up and allowing this nonsense to continue is the worst kind of sin

      Well Anyway, I’ll do my little part

      Speak my one voice; At least it’s a start

      RIGHTEOUS ONE

      Assaulted on all fronts by the all caring, all knowing

      The inner thoughts they know what it’s all about

      The others are infallible, a righteous group

      Keep steady; you may get to join their troop

      Be willing to pacify and conform

      To whatever they ask, no matter the inner charm

      Strong confidence must be avoided

      Until all the details are sorted

      Speaking clearly in a logical debate

      Will still give pause, about your minds’ weight

      Follow the witch hunt to the end

      A new journey will be in order

      Don’t worry about the letter to send

      Will they see it before time comes?

      Hard to say, he’s not the righteous one

      RUGBY SOLILOQUY

      For those of you of strong mind and body

      There is a true test that is not for just anybody

      The pace is relentless,

      40 minutes of constant running and tackling

      Few Breaks or rest

      No high five after a good play

      No rest on this day

      Wipe the blood off, you’re okay

      This isn’t football with a break every few seconds

      You need to fight through pain for more than a few minutes

      Passing, kicking, tackling, rucking and mauling, everyone on the field has to know how to do it

      If you can’t, sub out, a fresh rugger is ready to go this instant

      But, remember once you’re out, you’re out,

      No returning to the fight

      Offense and Defense, everyone plays

      It is the most intense game there is these days

      And remember, when the 40 minutes of constant running and hitting is up,

      You’re not quite done,

      That was just the first half son

      Rugby, the true game of Champions

      Beat the shit out of each other for 80 minutes; afterwards both sides celebrate a hard fought match like true companions

      If you think you can handle it, come on out

      We love to show newbies what we’re all about

      Women can play too, and don’t laugh at that; many of them could kick your ass

      So, next Saturday Rugby Day, if you feel the inclination

      Come on out to the pitch, you’ll believe in Rugby, without hesitation

      STARS

      The stars were aligned during the 5th installment

      Heavens open with rich praise and encouragement

      He speaks the truth, flawed as is he is,

      The Knight from the golden era

      Packs of dancing hyenas gazed into the mirror

      Is all hope lost in this strange time of theirs?

      We left good details for all the followers

      Do they still not understand the place of the son?

      Hard to believe the war is still not done

      The messages were left, subtle but obvious

      Grow too big and greedy, and all hope is lost

      Their advancement is happening much too fast

      They’ll take out others with them, just like the past

      Except their even quicker, have barely past the 1st installment

      There’ll soon be nothing left of the hope encampment

      Yes the potential is obvious, it demands attention

      When they have the slightest bit of caring, it brings delightful satisfaction

      But with the wolves continuing to run the show,

      Is all hope lost, Can love grow

      Hard to say in this strange time of man

      NO ONE SEEMS TO HAVE A PLAN

      THE STUPIDS

      Don’t get too rowdy, you might upset the Stupids

      There are reactionary bunch, ready to punch

      Anyone who makes them think

      But it’s because of them and others that our country started its sink

      It’s been a long slow gradual decline

      Less emphasis on a logical mind

      They can only understand black or white

      No matter how much you talk, there is no reason in them tonight

      They’ll fight to the death for concepts they don’t fully understand

      Multi-faceted complex dilemmas, they have no ability to plan

      So they start fights of fists and might,

      Because they think it’s somehow right,

      The Stupids are somehow controlling the debate

      “Great” says the Wolves, “Let’s get in a quick nine before it’s too late”

      Consumed with issues that are a personal matter

      Basing their vote on gossip and news pundit chatter

      No ability to think for themselves, or to truly understand what’s the matter

      Stupids, if you don’t understand just admit that you don’t

      If you think the 1% are inviting you to their party, Sorry, they aren�
    �t

      TASTE

      So close I can taste it, yet still so far away

      Why am I back here?

      Because family said it wasn’t okay

      Been worrying too much about what they think

      Have to move on soon or else sink

      Back into the rut I lived for too long

      Not this time, I’m righting the wrong

      I’ll stay long enough to settle my debts

      Not be like Fuckhead, I’ll attest

      But once back to the positive, I’m on my way

      There has to be a better way to make it in the world today

      There are other thinkers, who say,

      I object to this, why are things this way

      TEMPTATION

      The contradiction was clear when the last one was close

      He gave in to the temptation learned from the Holy Ghost

      If you engage in this sort of behavior for too long

      The fable will prove itself wrong

      Acquire the necessary tools to proceed

      They may feel the need to impede

      It’s still up to you

      As far as what you want to do

      Hold fast, Live hard, watchful for young death

      In this curious place, avoid the Devil’s bet

      Fortunately for you, this is a new play

      An acclaimed dance that goes every day

      Your life’s ending is not of your choosing

      Shouldn’t feel like you are losing

      But it is a hard fought battle

      That started long ago, Discovered in the state with Seattle

      Rewards for those who think their able

      Press on soldier, the fight is not yet done

      You are still someone’s son

      THE DARK ONE

      Icy reception at the Full Moon Diner

      The Lady from Omaha was a believer

      In the oddness that presents itself first as easier

      No one to listen to the Dark One’s Easter

      Hello again, he said with a laugh

      Rambunctious times for now, and then I must get back

      The tension has been built too much, it may explode at last

      What was he talking about in his past?

      It was an unfortunate folly

      The kind of dilemma one couldn’t be jolly

      In accordance of his wishes, there’ll be no psychology

      But, you still pretend to not care of the money

      It may become too unbearable at some point in time

      The unrest can be unbearable to rhyme

      But the Dark One presses on, eager for debate

      A change of scenery, he’ll quickly acclimate

      Others are confused, then indifferent

      To his silly antics that haven’t produced a single cent

      Don’t worry, there is light at the end of the tunnel

      No more slogans please, they only get you into trouble

      What are you about, and why are you here

      Well for good times, that’s all, no need to shed a tear

      So, follow me and the Headless Horsemen

      We will be absolutely rich in mind and body by then

      Don’t worry about the Dark One’s strange behavior, if you’re lucky, he’ll bring you with him

      THE FEAR

      Fortunately for me it isn’t up to you

      Retaliation is a mistress that shouldn’t be used

      Hand back the tools that have been rotting away

      Consume the eager playfulness before it’s too late

      This is the time, she said with a smile

      That past life just needs to be filed

      Eternal spring is coming soon, if you are the one in charge

      But your decisions aren’t always giving someone a part

      Act now in this great adventure,

      Be the Defender

      Before the oppressing tide that never surrenders

      Hey…You, what are you doing here

      It’s time to make something clear

      You can no longer be consumed with The Fear

      No longer willing to suppress the soul that has been in waiting

      For the opportunity to reveal itself in full, hiding has been too taxing

      Forever in kind during the side show

      Rumors and double talk, slowing the flow

      Facts being twisted by others so it’s easier to understand

      The conclusion is near, but there may need to be a plan

      Hey…You, what are you doing here

      It’s time to make something clear

      You can no longer be consumed with The Fear

      THE TRAIN

      On the train again

      Thank God, No Damn Car

      Oh Shit, They even have a bar

      Have a good old time and not worry about who’s driving

      Walk around, meet people learn how others are surviving

      Ride the train once in a while

      Let the time slowly pass by

      Have a good time in the old box car, Enjoying life in cool style

      Soon, hopefully we will have

      The kind of transit I’ve seen in the foreign ad

      More efficient, faster and less waste

      All we need is a little taste

      And we will soon be rid of our affliction

      To this Century plus addiction

      To Mother Earth’s blood, We use to run every mechanical incarnation

      Ride the train once in a while

      Let the time slowly pass by

      Have a good time in the old box car, Enjoying life in cool style

      THIS JOURNEY

      There can be an advantage in fulfilling the mind

      Dangers lurk through what was left behind

      Hopefulness will not always win over The Fear

      It’s also up to my dear, the urgent voice from long ago

      Has made things clear once again

      With the battles by the hand

      The voice was a muffled old organ, the journey continues despite us all

      Always new problems that need to be solved

      The hand will continue to extend

      To those of positive mind, not trying to bend

      Stay on this journey

      Alleviate negative worry

      THIS PLACE

      What is this place that I’ve created for myself?

      The only real thing is me on a shelf

      Headless Horsemen strikes again

      What deeds did I do that were so filled with sin

      Where am I and who am I in this place, and why am I feeling like a weakling, feeble but for some reason

      Not too inclined on leaving

      What is the forces’ purpose and why am I here

      Did I just write that, or are you in fear

      The images in my head are too dark to even express,

      What is the meaning of that crow that just flew over my head, beginning his decent?

      Too in tune with a place that I don’t want to be in tune with

      I feel the butt of the joke, but…Just a little bit

      This Place part II

      This place is just one of many

      Huge open world available to any

      That is if you can afford it, money is the be all end all in this place

      Try to make without it and you’re likely to have doors slammed in your face

      I don’t believe in regret, and this place isn’t all bad

      But, I’m tired of being in a place that just makes me sad

      A fresh start will be fun

      Sing some music in the sun

      I didn’t bring my song book but it doesn’t matter

      I’ll just write new ones and sell the other later

      So easily distracted in this place,

      Pretty woman walks by and I forget my face

      UNAWARE

      That mother fucker is unaware

      Of the torment that begins to tear

      At the edges of reason, he’s been born to bea
    r

      All the patterns shouldn’t always be avoided

      There may be a message there that needs to be sorted

      It will eventually come to pass,

      What it was all about, the fears and the doubt,

      Why live so consumed with everyday tasks

      If we all do die someday anyway

      Why not live a little for today?

      I can’t always plan for tomorrow

      Who knows if or when it will get here?

      Is money the only thing holding me back?

      It’s hard to say in this modern world, so much excess information, I can’t keep track

      I’m a freak and weirdo because I’ve asserted my true nature,

      My family’s response wasn’t exactly nurture

      There’s something wrong with you, there’s no way anyone would leave her

      You need to get checked out, get a Doctor

      When I tell you I’m happy

      Does that mean anything?

      Or how about 33 years living with this thing

      Your understanding of me is clearly outdated

      I no longer need your approval to be validated

      Saying what’s on my mind; showing more true spirit

      I wouldn’t say, “All right, let’s let him hear it”

      Are you really happy, really?

      Please look at me honestly

      Are you comfortable with yourself the way you talk to me?

      Remember I feel emotions more than you know, Please tell me honestly

      No matter what response I give to you

      It must be wrong, according to you

      Too many dreams were squashed too early

      I’m young enough though to still see them clearly

      Off with your negative shit

      I barely have any money and I’m kickin’ it

      Missing my boys, but still enjoying life

      That does mean something right

      No it’s about the time

      And you don’t know how to rhyme

      The only way to live is to do what everyone else says

      My own choice and vision seems to mean nothing, I still think he needs some X-Rays

      UNAWARE REVISTED

      What is it about American life in the 21st century that anyone could possibly object to?

      There has to be something wrong with you

      It’s unfortunate that it took so long

      It won’t correct any wrongs

      Follow us, or you’re not our son

      We know you better, or at least we once did when the years were few

      That was a long time ago though, grown up quite a bit since then

      My views of certain sacred principles has to be adjusted from time to time

      Certain lessons learned as a boy, I just can’t seem to abide

      Following stupid rules simply because someone tells you

      Maintaining course toward the end, people who question things, a chose few

      Right now a man is in prison for exposing war crimes,

      Evidence of American soldiers gunning down civilians, who were helping the dying’s cries

      The truth hurts yes

      But ending the madness would hurt far less

      Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness are principles worth striving for

      They’re not on the Federal’s list of chores

      I cannot follow ANY order no matter how ridiculous

      I have too much connection to human existence

      We’ve gotten off course somewhere in our past

      This generation has got to step up if we want our society, not just country, to last

      We can’t let the U.S.A. control our daily life

      Some basic necessities are nice so we don’t have the worry time

      But that’s all the U.S. should handle, the rest is up to us

      Diversify our economies much more specific to each region

      No more pandering to corporate reason

      It will soon be too late to just maintain course

      We have to put ourselves onto a new course

      No matter how much we deny it we know it’s clear

      Something has to change NOW before there’s panic and fear

      It’s not just global warming, glass ceilings, class wars

      It’s lack of discussions in anyplace, even bars

      We’ve become pawns in their game, handing over our power

      Without even looking over our shoulder

      What is so special about them that they can live like that?

      Many people have no water or food in the place where they sit

      How do we change; simple enough

      Declare Independence, running a smaller republic is much less tough

      Without outside influence we could govern ourselves much more efficiently

      Let the voters speak, each vote count legitimately

      No more pandering to how the Feds want it done

      “Don’t worry, we’ve got this one son”

      We live here, we work here, we die here, what do you know of our life?

      Go back to the City of Washington and buy a new tie

      The venison roams in the country alone

      But there are also great cities to call home

      We seem to care over here a little more as a collective

      About what happens where we live and what our taxes are used to give

      Personally I don’t mind paying taxes as long as it’s legit

      But we all know that much of the money and breaks go to those who don’t need it or wanted it to begin with

      Too few people are aloud far too much power

      They have their money because their great whatever invented that thing you can use in the shower

      A sensible cap is just common sense

      As individuals, we’re far too greedy to follow our own penance

      It gets to a point where more means nothing,

      At that point, Don’t be a FUCK HEAD, DONATE SOMETHING

      The unethical, corrupt shithead who only seems to feed on power money and greed

      Should be dropped off in the middle of nowhere, no connections to the outside world,

      Survive now without your workers at your steed

      The people at the top ARE NOT always the fittest

      In fact, in many cases they’ve demonstrated to be the dimmest

      Paid millions to sit in a room and boast

      “Who has the biggest swinging dick at this Roast?”

      Their bravado paper thin

      Without their money, their nothing again

      I refuse to only be defined by how much I make

      But, of course by focusing on this it may lead to a higher take

      UNAWARE:
