So It Goes

Living in an age where were all bought and sold
Your experiences are worth more than gold
The tellers and the told, every person is fighting to be bold
Has the salt of the earth lost its savour?
I see rabid dogs fight for a bone with no flavor
And I have to ask where does this go?
Are we meant to believe man is achieving his best?
Or are the fruits of our labor now a test?
A stranger future than fiction might suggest
Our teeth sink deeper into the cyborgs breast
Has the salt of the earth lost its savour?
I see rabid dogs fight for a bone with no flavor
And I have to ask where does this go?
A curtain is rising
Our circuits overloading
Return to whence you came
Step back into the gism
A wasted life
If not pure hedonism
Has the salt of the earth lost its savour?
I see rabid dogs fight for a bone with no flavor
And I have to ask where does this go?
If you ask you will receive
The answers you never want to believe
2017 a year of meta diseased
The human condition is looking bleak
And So It Goes...

Traditions

Soon they'll be there face to face
Standing in the shadows
Hands filled with mistakes
What happens to your next utopia?
When you've already ruined this place
And who made it this way?
Everything was peaches and cream
Ideologies crumble
Trapped by an elusive dream
What's the use of cognitive thought
If all that lasts is hate and misplaced anger?
Been thrown into a reality of fools
It's getting hard to see it another way
And who made it this way
Who's trapped between peace and panic?
And why?
I know you hear their cries from within their compound
Let them have their castle soon the walls will crumble
Let the phony idols reach the highest peak
The air is cold they'll fight to death for heat
Exploit their appetites for hate and greed
They'll see the tricks they pull aren't worth the treat
Let them twist while we continue to turn
Turn to a new world without them
Clasping to traditions
Never willing to break the chains
Is the American way
But we'll keep twisting the rag
With hope to see a drop of change
And who made it this way?
Who's trapped between peace and panic?
And why?

Ode To Living
02:11
|

With silent lips
“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
How I wish I could solve the problems
Good times come close
Yet we're robbed clean
Don't worry sweet heart
There's good times on the horizon
But take your sweet time crying
Always things to keep us down
But I'll be damned if I'm not trying
To make life worth living
(For you and me)
Give me the mantra and I will repeat it
Death comes to us all
Death is certain
Guide my hopeless existence
With positive reinforcement
And good health
You are destine to fulfill your wishes
Channel the essence of idols
Who have long know the ancient harmony
Where did their heart go?
Always one step away from our worlds destruction
It's hard to find people in this life worth trusting
That's why I have you
And the father who gave us everything
The Sun
(For Allison)

Burning Alive
02:44
|

Stuck on auto pilot
Taking shots in the back
This time I'm going down trying to focus on my counter attack
The moral compass is all out of whack
No care for whos in my path
This time I'm going down trying to focus on my counter attack
Dropping the payload turning all that is green into black
(A 15 mile radius into ash)
An ejected pilot leaving my subconscious cockpit
Hit the ground barely on my feet
In the clouds I hear the jets scream
I don't know whether to run or stay in place
(it's karma, his name is second Satan come to set me ablaze)
At first it's hard to believe
I'm seeing signs but don't know exactly what they mean
The pain feels like being burned alive
Nothing to live for in this constant state of fear
The futures uncertain, the end could be near
And It's a hard way to live when your outlook is less bright than dim
Now I'm burning and my chance of living is looking slim
When If ever, will I get out of this?
Catching my reflection in radiated water
Should have accepted signs but at the time I didn't bother
Now the ash has blocked the sun
Leaving no where to run
I was left burning but I know there's someone who will kill the flames
It's too late to for regret
It's starting to get cold

I see all your pain enough is enough
We keep searching while our time is burning and the world keeps turning even though we're hurting
Open my eyes so I'll see
Open my mind to believe
I'm searching for a special release
And I'm hoping that one day you'll see
Dedicated to those who hate
I offer you love because I see all your pain
We keep searching and our time is burning and the world keeps turning even though we're hurting
Open my eyes so I'll see
Open my mind to believe
Still searching for that special release
And I'm hoping that one day you'll see
Where we've been and where we can go
I know it's been a while since we last spoke
I call to hear you're ok and laugh at old jokes
But we've both changed and gone our own ways
Me and my band were doing ok decided to write the song that I'm singing today
We try and we cry
dedicated to the ones I love
We try and we cry
dedicated to the ones I love
Open your eyes and you'll see
Open your mind to believe
We're all searching for that release
And I know one day we'll see
(Together)
We didn't ask for any of this
Playing their war games with major consequence
The clocks been moved three minutes to midnight
The bear is awake the eagle is taking flight

Mutually Assured Destruction
We just want to live our lives
My wife and child that's being fertilized
We're peaceful fish trapped in this pond
I never agreed upon this
Mutually Assured Destruction

Now let me tell you a story
And I know you've been seeing this too
Most choose to live without a clue
Is this the path that you'll choose?
They've got the local man on the run
And I know you've been seeing this too
Concrete structures, nature disrupters, errors we can't undo
Now this is what I've been seeing
Sarasota is losing its local feeling
It starts with a bow, then we're kneeling
Is this the path you'll choose?
Concrete structures, nature disrupters, errors we can't undo
First it all starts with one
Then were getting fooled by two
Decline comes along with three
Now all we have is four
So big money comes rolling back in
Controlling our locality, killing the personality
So I go out to the beach
Far from where they can see
Smoke a J to get away
Because what can I do?
First it all starts with one
Then were getting fooled by two
Decline comes along with three
Now all we have is four

Power Core

So Another month goes by and we wonder what we're doing with our time
The past is the past
It's a sad fact but it's where our happiness seems to last
Know that you hold the key
And the future is in your grasp
Will you keep turning that same old wheel
Or let your music express exactly how you feel
Coming to terms with our existence
Was there a point and did we miss it?
Express your beliefs with all your POWER
I know you feel it in your CORE
In the dim lit room
We gather once again
Express our concerns
Of what we are against
Forget about the masses
They arent watching
Peaceful music that sounds aggressive
Know that you hold the key
And the future is in your grasp
Will you keep turning the same old wheel
Or let your music express exactly how you feel
Coming to terms with our existence
Was there a point and did we miss it?
Express your beliefs with all your POWER
I know you feel it in your CORE
No longer will we sit with silent rage
This is a coming of age
POWER CORE

Consuming Satisfaction
02:12
|

Manifest our own doomed destinies
Masterminding our own depression
We want more: toys, devices, structures, garbage
Stop and observe what you have
Money is the greatest illusion
We are bred to believe this is it
This is song is filled with fear
For not just myself but you
Technology advances while the planet dies
(Corporate lies of peace and comfort. 1's and 0's )
Rolling high with 305
It's rolling in
Human kinds greatest fear
Listen closer can you hear?
Nature screams for help
But it will never die
This song is filled with fear
For not just for myself but you
Waves are crashing at our doors
Rolling high with 305
Consuming satisfaction
We need direct action
When is mans imagination satisfied?
Do I have to ask again, Why?
If we're not here to see it
Do the waves still crash?
Does the wind still blow?
Where we're going nobody knows and how this ends
Well... So it goes
How far can we make the natural world bend?
We will consume until the end
It's 2017 with danger on all fronts
Human nature has been stripped of its best
Trees will fall, tides will rise, steel just rusts
Temperatures climb, as we continue to drill the crust
Who fucks the earth, extracts and boils the blood that will kill us?

Cashin' That Check
02:05
|
|||
They foam at the mouth
And try to shoot him down
But can't take his pride
A psychotic soldier
Who won't fucking run
And he ain't gonna hide
YOU
Don't got the balls gonna burn that wreck
HE
Is making his move and he's cashin, that check
A quick taste of freedom was all that he needed see through the confusion
Jokers and devils lashing out through the shadows were just an illusion
YOU
Don't got the balls gonna burn in that wreck
HE
Is making his move and he's cashin' that check
They got caught in their own trap
Tangled in anger they believed their own lies
They're their own cause of death
And it's just a matter of time...
All that he sees
All that he knows
Forces of evil
Running the show...
They foam at the mouth
And try to shoot him down
But they can't take his pride
And he won't fucking run and he ain't gonna hide
