A Biography Of One Man's Destiny
Destiny hopefully knocks on our door at the right time
because I know I missed the train and forgotten my ticket
when it has tried to give me a chance
I have become ecstatic and full of light
ever since destiny came together
like a puzzle
I had the box and the pieces in my possession
but I guess it took a little bit of time
because I over think
I over analyze
I have this unbeatable streak
of missing destiny's knock on the door
Well finally I answered and
everything is coming together
No missing pieces no bent
or child manipulated pieces
Just a brand new box with

Pestilent Man
His heart beat like a racketeer
Pounding into his chest
He moved like a steam powered locomotive
Sweat spilled out of his skin
His limbs exploded onto the ground like long missiles
His determination was running at full speed
One guy was on the ground in front of him
Two guys were violently bulgeoning
the young man with kicks in repetion
The man ran at the young people and cried out,
'Hey stop, stop! '
The two misguided young ones ran off.
He asked the beaten fool what happened
he walked away not saying a word of thanks
Maybe this young ungrateful pestilent man
would have been killed if this had been allowed to continue
What a fool, I'm embarrassed to be apart of his race
But I'm not perfect
I too need to shed my imperfections
It was a personal territorial war to be sure

One Man's Brain
Distasteful references of the inner city
by an uninhabited brain from the outer rim
It is so far gone from the real world
that it splatters itself all over the tv
A fly stuck in its own blood
The eyes still work and everything else is intact
The heart has a pulse and the brain an electrical current
It believes that this theatrical commentary
is the mediator of real knowledge
The TV is a screen into one man's brain
his thoughts and ideas about how life should be
Each channel flashes into different thoughts and interests
They are the same thoughts but with different scenery
There are mostly people who look like him
The reality of the channels are so far gone
Brains farts of psycho babble that is unintelligible
A cocktail mixed with tree and birds
poured over everything that is bad
turns into this fake goodness
This is why their is racism because there is racism on tv

Bring Them Home(song)
verse1:
oh how I tried
to change this evil
that's taking over
too many crow
squawkin' freely
they have to go
we need to
take back the earth
and claim it for the humble
greedy hyenas
laughing with their money
creating more weaklings
the price of life
is too expensive
even the fittest will die

Real Justice(song)
You should be tantric
There is no war in peace
Just buy it there is no lease
It's a gold fleece
With more value than any material
Wake up kid and have some cereal
We are divided like years
Living to promote our fears
Look into our mirrors
Get a good look
Cause it might be the last one you took
We've got problems
that no one wants to solve
get involved
Take out your claws
Let's fight
A battle that cannot be lost
A battle with no human cost
Let's fight the world

Pangaea
I keep 'em guessin'
Which personality will they be gettin'
It depends which button u pressin'
I can be a nuclear bomb
Or sweet like a soccer mom
Silent like Teller
Or predictable like a speak and speller
I morph into the situation
Like the psyche of this people's nation
U can't ever knock me down
Or silence the bark of this hound
I sniff out your intentions
Like a teacher overseeing detention
You can't stop me or change me
I will be who I want to be
Literally
I don't care if it is a culture shock to you
Cause I live my life and I do what I do
My free will shines bright
Like a world gathering under candlelight
