Sitting under the sun
trying to find some fun
Will you join my scheme?
Give me the chance to make a gleam

The words were similar to mine
with you around, it'll all be fine
Only time will tell us how
But now, I can only say wow

Will you join my scheme?
Give me the chance to make you gleam
As the sun does everyday
making way for life and its way

All I ask is that you stay
Don't ever leave me astray
Our words could speak together
Making us lighter then feathers

The words were similar to mine
With you around, It'll all be fine
Your eyes are bluer then the sea
If you don't leave, I'll never flee

All through these times
We see all these crimes
In Arizona, there's a law passed
if you're brown, you'll be sassed
Watch yourself and your papers
no matter how hard your labor
or, Staying free, here, will be short

Race was blown away, years ago
or so i thought; it still grows
People are people, except when they're brown
Why make all the people now frown?
Freedom to everyone so they say
This irony is no different then yesterday
When we did the same to the other sort

Love is the universe
and the universe is us
Us is two people
two people in one
one is the way
the way of the street
the street thats my love
My love is somewhere hidden
Hidden is what I want to show
Show our love forever
Forever is how I feel
To feel about you
You are out of this world
World is the universe
Universe is love
Love is the one
The one way street

My Eyes are suddenly open,
Late at Night
Early Morning,
They Certainly aren't droopin'.

My mind is racin' and loopin',
on this phone
with this girl,
You understand, me not hopin'.

Whether it's my problems
Or even us
now or later,
But after all these gremlins.

I'll be grateful that you,
were here, there
to talk, to listen,
and to set me through.

I walk to the lake,
skip the rocks
and to hope,
were everything but fake.

Where’s the love I forever knew? That walked so tenderly on this plane. I saw it go down like a sunset escaping the sky. With hopes of resurrection I saw it burn and burn.

Sadness in caretaker’s eyes, resentment in tranquility. Tides come to make anew. Only for us to stay troublesome. I’ve relinquished my hate and capsulated my love. I am a lone trudgen that slowly crawls.

Hangin’ on by my developments, I hear the hopes of me, but cannot pursue. My sanctuary clashes happiness, but relapse in melancholy deep inside.

Is it the taste I sadly commit to? My mishaps, so dear that I even know not of. Why can love be so fake and hate so real. My brothers make all audacities hesitate. I feel the pain, but plunge undoubtedly inside.

Was it your departure that I crawl? Or was it me divulging through this mess. I cannot bare my stance. It seems all to routine and blunder some. Why cant simplicity embark our voyages?

Your expression dwindles with your sin. You give in excess, but take all until the end.

My mind suddenly sees, but for you only to read. Why can’t my company cause your fire? Why is our memories fogged by this current alignment?

Why must I plunge down to the bottom of every sea. Why can’t I float upon the masses? What drives our scene must be taken and smashed.

I embraced the earth as if a heartily hug. As I feel with you a bashful tug.

As I stare to the welcoming sea, I see a new set of eyes gaze at my shining light.

When I find a place
to go and hide away
I'll call your name
To come my way

Would you hide away?
So far away?
Entranced in Love
You'll hide away?

Why can't we go
escape the madness
Hide far away
and feel our love

Is it my heart
That drives you
and sets you
on your way?

"I'll go" you said
but your minds lead
and i can't get through
to talk to you

I found my place
to go and hide away
I call your name
to come my way

I'm so alone today
I can hardly bare
my heart can only tare
With your lack of care

My body dwindles
as yours swindles
your lips lie
and your eyes close

I found a place
To go hide away
I call your name
But you just remain

Times are strange
so are the arranged
Folks just cannot wait
for a better date

Hustle and Bustle of unknowing truth
Yelling and insolence are not on the mind
Those words are spoken as tradtion

Morals are forgotten
Capitals the marker
Relations are closed
even if you proposed

The lack of insight
will lead a fight
those that are nice
are forced to scrap

Wrestle the winds that hold you back
Only embrace what your mind can bring
bare only what you heart can suffer

Gentleman crossed
all the woman lost
everything they had
minds were all blurring

we inhaled the lies
and told you not to cry
but to hold your ties
to check away the sighs

My thoughts are my words
my words are placed aside
while I try to look inside
