It’s tugs at my emotions
Grabs hold my broken soul
Tear streams running down my face
Tears only you could know
I come from drowning waters
In search of my home
Going out to find my daughters
Good lord I’m free to roam
Good lord I’m free to roam
I’ve been lost with no connection
To the people that I’ve known
A stranger in a foreign land
My God, how much I’ve grown
I’ve learned things I’ve never thought of
About myself while I’m alone
It’s not what you say but how you say it
It’s with your words and tone
I’ll soon locate my dearly loved ones
Up till now had been postponed
Grab my hand and hold on to it
Come sit beside me on my throne
Come sit beside me on my throne
Come sit beside me on my throne

No time to refine the conceptual mind
Patterns are formed, developed,  defined.
Look within and you should find
Who bares the fruit at the end of the vine

Is reaching the pinnacle of perpetual life redefined  
Worth the risk of committing a crime?
Go, hide away.....
Run for cover.....
You can get what's been lost some other time

In the shadows as in the light
You still shine
Like a shooting star, afar, on a cloudless night
Past the moon, so soon, so bright

If you deny, it's a lie, not the truth
From all we were taught and we learned in our youth
All alone or in a group
Everywhere that you look there is proof

He who climbs the tallest tree
Has the rights to the fruit
Whether he's disheveled,
Or in a suit
Eye on the prize, worlds collide
No dispute.

Fury, resistant of the realm
Order is self-evident
But not to overwhelm
Survival, restricted to oneself
That no one should have to endure
And sit upon a shelf
To be free, or in anarchy
One must come to terms
With their value, their own self worth
For their time here on earth

I just want love
I pray to the heavens above
I just want love
No riches or material stuff
I only want love

I'd walk
To the ends of the earth
Through deserts
For all that it's worth
Just to have someone
To call my own
That I never
Again feel alone

I've spent years
Watching how others bond
Through long nights
Until the early morn
Holding hands
At the breaking of dawn
C'mon man, c'mon

I don't need much
I only want one
Make it fast
My life's almost gone
How much longer
Must I have to wait
Till she comes along
Till she comes along

I just want love
I pray to the heavens above
I just want love
You know what it is
That I'm speaking of
I just want love

Is she hiding
Somewhere in the crowd
Is she even standing
On solid ground
I'll keep on searching
Just point out the way
Nothing can ever
Lead me astray

Down the path
That leads to the unknown
I aim to roam
Any distance
Or close to home
To no longer
Feel all alone

I just want love
I pray to the heavens above
I just want love
You know what it is
That I'm speaking of
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love

Golden skies of autumn
Leaves shedding like tears
Orange and brown
And yellow appears
As leaves hit the ground
They rustle and sing
For the changing of season
And the on coming spring

A man that can capture
The heaven and earth
Stands cowardly before you
Unsure of his worth

Not a thought, nor a lie
Nor a second chance life
Not a soul to belong to
No one to call wife

My anti-social misunderstandings
I see the view from their eyes
Coddled and sheltered
Not one of the guys

Let gravity pull you
A chance to unwind
No cause for confusion
I hope you don’t mind

Timid and broken
Head’s pounding away
He’s a legend among us
What more can I say

The rise and fall
Felt by all
What to do
It’s not my call

Out of my hands
Out of control
Having wisdom
In the know

Keep a secret
Yes or no?
Please don’t say
I told you so

Ears are ringing
A whistle blows
Stop in action
***** clothes

Built to last
The legend grows
All ten fingers
All ten toes

Heavy breathing
Through my nose
The one that lives
The one she chose

In the desert
In the snow
An avalanche
Churning down the *****

Not too hot
Not too cold
Always doing
What you’re told

Way too young
Getting old
Too revealing
Too exposed

Break a leg
Frightened; froze
Large bouquet
One red rose

Happy ending
End of show
Empty seats
That’s how it goes

When you're all consuming
Alone inside your head
It makes it kind of hard to see beyond the light
With no one there to ask you how your day was
Or let you know, whether or not you were in the wrong or right

It's not always a gift to be a Chamaeleon
To blend in, as though you weren't even there
When no one makes you feel like you're one in a million
But everyone acts as though they could not care

I'm just one man in an endless sea of people
With two ears, two eyes, and a mouth
Is there no one in the world,
Willing to show me love
And learn exactly who I am,
And what I'm all about?

I'm not sure if it's me
Or if it's who I'm perceived to be
I'm hard to read
And a man in need

I'm so hard to read
And a man in need

If I saw you, and you saw me
Then that would be something
I don't ask much, and after all,
I see no need for greed

After all, I see no need for greed

I've never been one to captivate an audience
I don't care to venture into a war of words
It's just so hard, when what you say,
Doesn't seem to carry weight
The whole entire thing to me, seems absolutely absurd.

The whole thing to me, seems absolutely absurd

A mind that feels caged in
Oh, where to begin
With a wall of brick
Directly in your line of sight
That's when I know, it's time to close my eyes
And dream that I'm living someone else's life.

Dream, I'm living someone else's life

To fall asleep,
And dream I'm living someone else's life.

Haven’t written in a while
I’ve been stuck inside a hole 🕳️
One I didn’t know I needed
But it soon took its hold
From cause and effect
Applauding each other
Showing signs of respect
The word respect
I have dealt with
In certain aspects
Carved it into my arm once
Fighting my demons
Battling my own self neglect
Been through hell in a hand basket
But that’s neither here nor there
They’ve gathered to rally
They live and they share
With always a focus
A steady same thread
They know what they’re there for
What we can all comprehend
That we’re witnessing stardom
Gifted and elite
Every release is a banger
And not just new, but unique
Rinse and repeat
Dance rap or cut deep
It all sounds magnificent
As I’m falling asleep
No, seriously, I’m falling aslee
