A shooting star is kinda like a memory
Burns so bright
Fading into history
Just another form of alchemy
Probably
Conundrums hidden inside of hypocrisy
Western philosophy
Born by Socrates
Conforming our Societies entirely
That's my hypotheses
No honestly
We stand on the foundation
Of calamity
A Shakespearen tragedy
Hamlet
To be or not to be what a question
Bold message
Learned lessons
Thyne brethren are amidst great tension
No progression
No protection
No leadership to aid in ascension
We're left guessing
We're left stressing
We're left with one result
Aggression
But I was raised to be a better man
Be loving and caring
Really Understand
Don't take the upper hand
Give a helping hand
Remain humble
Focus on the task at hand
Illicit contraband
The mighty dollar stamp
There's a massive contrast between blood and sand
Let your mind expand
Make sure to take a stand
Against any monster threatening our land
And I believe it
Cause I have seen it
A plague like disease
Left untreated
So much screaming
It's the work of demons
But I want peace
So I keep on dreaming
We're not defeated
No we're not all sleeping
We're bloody and beaten
But I'm lighting the beacons
The Change of seasons
Brings new beginnings
But between wolf and sheep
Who gets eaten?

Both Carl Sagan
And Isaac Asimov
Pointed to the cosmos
Before we even had proof
Jade rabbit and the lil red rover to
Landing on a comet even
Pluto seen by voyager
Standing monoliths
Erected to be marvelous
Praising outer space
Like real astronautalists
Teacher from the Parthenon
Decoded the lexicon
Now a gateway to oblivion is
Here LIVE via SATcom
Open up your eyes
It's going down now
What you know is lies
We're not alone no
Spaceships in the sky
I think its time to
Reach out and make
First Contact
Moon temple Exodus
Life forms androminous
Goliath like giants with
highly advanced consciousness
And Nostradamus profisized
This colossalness
Like Haileys comet
we all watch in astomishment
The massive contraptions
are creaking and cracking
and finally snap into action
The real aliens have landed
but do we call them friend
or do we call them enemy
How do we interact with
beings from a different galaxy

Blue moon rise in the age of Aquarius
I aint buried yet
because I'm still alive
the clouds float by like candle lit chariots
I feel the happiness
and free my mind
serendipity supplies sweet symphonies
simply so I see
that sometimes the sunshines
shimmery sunlight
subtly sings to me
- and then I just
spark up the brainstorm
hit record and then form
premortem art forms
playing back as our records
and they're treated as treasures
fulfilling all my pleasures
living at a tempo
that time and space can not measure
but the witching hour's watching
ease dropping while I'm talking
just planning and plotting
a scheme to finally stop me
because they stalk me they haunt me
they viscously taunt me
- but guess what - I am no mans property
I claim sovereignty
I'm a radical thinker
and before I go home
man I always go bigger
- a rap singer
eating music for dinner
I'm a saint amongst sinners
in a game with no winners
- but -
I feel the vibes
like a constant motion
like waves in an ocean
high tide just floating
where the current decides to take me
I'm coasting
cuz nothing can hurt me baby
- ibuprofen

You ever stop and just think about the world today,
How hate and violence get glamourized and over played.
It's safe to say I'm a product of this culture conflict,
Broad spectrum but hey at least the vultures honest.
A heinous caucus of authors writing irresponsible laws full,
Of awfully costly stockholds.
With loopholes covering bank roll so no matter how low the rabbit hole goes,
They survive like a cockroach.
And Im completely fed up with that bullshit,
1 step forward 2 back in a slow drift.
Momentous celebration vs evil legislation,
Constituting what's life because we need the regulations.
Yeah I'm waiting to see real freedom be free, eventually becoming more than just a dream - believe me.
We need it badly and sadly the insanity won't end until we actually start fighting to stop it!

Is there anybody out there tell me
Can you free my soul
I don't want to be the one left hanging
Here alone in the cold
Please let me know
If anybodys out there help me
I'm swaying in the wind
There's a rope and a branch and no hope
So I laugh choking on my sins
And I
Really wanna fight back
But it only gets worse
When I pull away
And I
Really wish I had slack
But I think that I'm cursed
cuz I'm here today
I don't deserve this
Is there anybody out there listening
Can you hear my voice
I've been screaming and it seems like forever
Do I even have another choice
So if
There is nobody out there helping
Me to survive
Will I
Pay a price for my life
And watch as my light
Fades and dies
Cuz I
Really want to know the truth
But only get confused
As time ticks away
And I
Really wish I had some proof
So I could finally prove
This is just a mistake
I shouldn't be here
Every day so many people on this earth are desperately in need of help that will never come. We need to stop being blind to the fact that this degradation is making us jaded and heartless. We have our priorities backwards. We can let people die helplessly for no real good reason other than basic hatered, while everyone goes on with their daily life. And if you don't think there is any difference you can make, you're wrong. You can be the difference between life and death. This world can be changed from its bloody history, with death and hatered growing from the roots. You can be the change. You can cut the rope that is tying down our fellow brethren, you just have to share your love and wash away all the...
