My faded bliss I would be remiss If I did not tell you this Like Pangea we had to drift Now across oceans My heart is roaring As my love for you is still

Hey Lover
I don't want everybody to know About me and you They don't know the truth And they don't mean well Even when they think they do They don't really mean well Even when they mean to Happiness don't last here Its a dash in a flash here They don't want to see us tattooed in smiles So let's run away Grab then pack our bags today For eternal sunshine Racing to the shoreline The grand escape With my eternal sunshine

The Grand Escape
If they come for you at night I will be gone by morning Sirens deafen the silence Of a society in decline Real eyes realize real lies stand down or stand aside Diving deep to drown in a cesspool of demise Profit at any cost Left us morally bankrupt and without rights

Morally Bankrupt
Evil spelled backwards is live And that's what I choose to do God placed us here To oppose evil I can't not live I can't not give I can't not share I can't not forgive And do as thou wilt

Evil (Live)
Spy on us Lie to us Shatter our dreams Betray our trust Being good Ain't good enough Working hard Won't earn u much Thinking too much Can leave u stuck Detached Alone as **** Not thinking enough Can leave u stuck Out of place Without touch It all falls down When the bubble busts

Big Brother
Did I take too long When I made you wait Do you still long for me Or did your feelings fade *** now I'm upside down All over the place Told you I'd be back With teary eyes Wishing I could stay Pouring out my soul like rain Knowing that things might change And there might be a day When another takes my place

*Who are you to judge? A person called a murderer* Who made his hands ***** because he's provoke Because he choose to live An old man who robbed a store Because he's desperate, hungry and sick Whose mother is dying in the hospital and has no money to extend her life A mother who leave her child She, who doesn't have the privilege to study and live a normal life Because she doesn't think she's good enough to support her daughter's needs *Who are you to judge this people? Don't you have mistakes of your own? Who are you to say harsh words to them? And who are you to exclude them from second chances?* How do we differ from murderers If we wish those people we hate to death How do we differ from robbers If we steal their chances to be better, to be something different And how do we differ from mothers who leave their children If we abandoned those people who deserve forgiveness *Who are we to judge? We're not god almighty And we don't know their story So cut the crap and stop judging*

Judgemental
Revolt is not Riot Appropriate reaction to state violence 80% unemployment for black youth Poverty has its roots In Slavery Victims of death by ****** Unnatural He did it himself they say He died His neck snapped And broke the silence Disturbed the peace Inciting violence Sparked Light Of resistance In the hearts and minds Of the confined And fear in the hearts of those who don't matter to mind Modern lynchings At the hands of police And they call us thugs? When we're killed for making eye contact Or walking home from a store run By maniacs with or without licensed guns For having the nerve to shop in Walmart Or playing with a toy gun You know, Cops and robbers? But what happens when cops are now robbers of lives and justice in our communities Then all too often they shift the narrative to you and me Of why unemployed and underemployed thugs are stealing food from the grocery Occupied like Syria and Iran For failing to purchase With dollars they don't have In a store like CVS that is insured by the flag How will order ever be restored?

After denying myself for so long How can you accept me Staring into my eyes Seeing pieces of broken glass Mirroring shattered dreams Reflecting old lovers past Yet somehow You always come back With a new smile

Love Affair
Living in a world Where far too many don't make enough to buy food While the rich have plenty No more can we plow fields As hunger builds They confuse you to think This is how sacrifice is It does nothing for me But bring pain and worry They said the ultimate sin is not earning a living Same ones consumed by greed and not giving Life ain't fair unless you pay the fare Fear burns in the air They call it an -ism But it's Spiritual warfare
