[Verse 1] If a thought were a contract, I'd try to buy out of it I don't know why I signed at the bottom I'm bound to the words that I didn't even speak yet As eyes have their own language Why submit to a rhyme when it doesn't reason? What you thought was deep is but beneath depth A keepsake that hates thanks well rehearsed All that's left is memories when we cross Jordan We get older and feel the regrets Sting like our conscience sleeps on a bed of nails It must be lovely to know innocence again This weariness will not subside No matter what's accrued, when it's due It'll be taken from you, so give while you still can Every touch is a reminder of joy present In the world, a heartfelt embrace between real friends [Verse 2] In a land barren of love, forsaken by compassion Vilified are those who are taking a stand Against sociopaths who market the world's ills As the cure for the very thing that teaches how to heal If distrust is taught, we give up distraught It's on us to sow hope, we can't lust for rewards Cause the bounty on our heads was placed by the ones Who can't afford to see us happy, so they pay to see us dead...

Melancholia 03:40
[Verse 1] The meridian between joy and sorrow Crossed by the equator, a few feet removed from my nadir A flat parabola was suggested for whatever success is Defiance reinforced the redoubt, a valiant effort Told to step outside of it, meet the tenants Of a settlement full of pessimist folks in need of penance Been there before and have yet to heed their lessons Inhale their atmosphere and breathe congested The tapes became loose from often repeated messages In essence fatigue, from stress indeed, overdue to set in Signals that were overcompressed Aimed at the tympanic membrane, loathingly hissed Made of galactic matter, when the nova hits I'ma blow up like V838 Monocerotis Shrink back to size, get dense and spin A teaspoon of my thoughts the opposite of what it says on the tin Was shaken, not stirred from events Seeing that the grass was dried brown on both sides of the fence... [Verse 2] A heartbeat away from letting a woman lead me astray The machine broke, thank human engineering it did Never did I think to glean hope From the failure perpetrated by the person that had made it, me There is still room for improvement There usually is, so I try to reduce Newtons Saturnine look on my face, mercurial ways Introverted, penning my cursive, see I just need space Escapist tendencies, my sanctuary's dreamscape Always shrouded in green clouds when in between takes In tune with my past, so the vocals may phase Waterside, thinking back to how it felt to be treasured Mutally induced and reciprocated coldness Eventually burns the bridge spanning pain and pleasure And I was on that bridge when it fell Nothing awaits beneath, not even hell You can slow the descent, but approaching the end Serenity sets in, now you're afloat in the winds of change...

[Verse 1] So many years of my life... I used to wonder if you saw what I was giving you Without ever asking myself if you was willing to So now that I have given up on feeling wistful You tell me all you wanted to hear is that I miss you A friend of mine once wrote a poem on vicissitudes Like getting judged on the one thing that you didn't do In the face of those you did, it should pale But humans expect the best, and when you are, you can't fail Open ocean, you are free to set sails If you lack the faith to see beyond the veil How long have we lived in a world of dreams Without ever poking one another, so we know it's real? What about the journeys that we couldn't undertake? Because whenever I was ready to, you'd run away? See, there is no such thing as bad timing Just the wreck left behind when we've failed to read the signage Some people we shouldn't warn, but we warned them Saw cycles that they couldn't break, and tried to reform them They're probably asking themselves what we want from them But they'll go crazy if we ever cease to want them Hoping for a chance that may never come Imprisoned by a moment long past, till at long last Memories are ultimately compartmentalized Yet when it's quiet, we couldn't help but fantasize... [Verse 2] Tempted by lust, tempered by trust Between me, you and her, nothing's ever enough We want more so we go for, exiled to pleasure Ran through a box of three in a day, then bought the next one She's found at raves, downing Margeri's Passing Js, feeling on women who felt first Tongues meet in confined space, my version of wet work She knelt before the sword, trying to fall into it She closed the door, didn't want all to view it Eyes met, time froze, there was more to it We went back to her place, put on some soft music If I didn't tear the wall down, at least I roared through it Get a kick from pissing neighbors off Putting strains on bedsprings or dents into wallpaper from headboards It's more than just lust, it's a self-control freak Losing himself willingly to the rush It's the smell afterwards, goosebumps from the touch No such thing as too much Funny thing is we still treat each other just like friends So what the fuck do we know about love? [Verse 3] Open up, show a person that you care for How you truly feel, that you will be there for Recently read a story about a young girl That took her own life, cause she felt she was a burden To her mother, that she felt didn't love her So much pain, depressions ate her alive, then the drugs became A way to escape the torment, only temporarily though Cause when the high dies, it's back to low She wrote a note on Tumblr, said it was the end While a tune in her memory played, I couldn't hold it in Reminded of the lost ones Who had nobody near when the storm would come I wrote a message to a woman I cherish Asked for forgiveness, cause I never let her know she was very missed I asked her to never let us lose us Cause there is still hope for us in the future Told her she inspired my songs She replied she believes in me to always be strong And make my way in this life, to be love and give it One day we'll see each other again, whoever visits...

Nerve Toxins 01:52
[Verse 1] Grey strands of hair, eyes tired When sense is absent from life, may the buyer Beware, every word is a spike on an iron chair The fog of war covers land love has pioneered In the end, thankless duties are shirked And those making demands see the value of the work The doer of the misdeed suspects The victim of the same acts, as though the bond wasn't strained yet The mirror bore the same cracks as his soul Because the one trying to be in is losing control The young ones pick up on the vibe and it molds Their perception of dealings between two adults Perpetuated abuse won't let scars heal And the pain is carried on concealed behind a shield In the end, we only contend with ourselves Which is why we believe we must fend for ourselves [Verse 2] Shame's revealed when a promise wasn't kept and you're Held to it, see the grid from below? You fell through it No clipping, neither to your own stunted wings Nor the bigger picture, you'll never glimpse The days have long passed where you tried me And somehow lucked into me speaking out in your defense You can find me where the grass isn't greener, but at least it's there You can't reap where you didn't sow seeds Apologies are of very little use to me And your little shoes no longer fit on my feet My glares smash hulls whose integrity is poor Since your mask doesn't hold, I would rather be ensured You tell me, should I cut cords to cut losses? Hard losing something that from the start was forfeit When lines are crossed, you nail whoever crossed ya And I'm just real glad to be off ya

Cold Season 02:52
[Verse 1] Serenity sets in when purpose arrives Never had a God, but I worship time To do with as I please, in my privacy Imagined that as a religion, but it seemed unlikely No time to tell others their business Unless I have invested interest, ya get it? Slow train coming, they call that reform Calm as the storm, it's y'all that can't weather it Shedding my adherence to norms that ain't definite 20 percent of my attention is worth 80 percent of the shits I had left to give The rest of them is found in the nether of irrelevance Done perusing the past, stepped out the Animus If women want me to care now, tell'em I'm celibate Utilitarian mindframe, it's not the most popular But simply put I'm tired of the mindgames... [Interlude] I'm sure, in some parallel universe out there, at the other end of the wormhole, beyond the barriers of the observable, far from entropy's all-withering grasp, there is a version of me that actually gives a shit. But don't get your hopes up. [Verse 2] Indifference is so cathartic My mind was so cluttered, I'm feeling true neutral You probably liked me better all cuddly Me, I probably like you better in a tutu The non-sequitur is fitting, if you didn't follow Like when you're saying something's lit, cause you think it's novel Today is just a day that I feel like Extending the longest digit on the hand that feels right Dressed to kill the notion I would pay the cost You're the type of square not found in a natal chart First of April, you're the resident smart-ass But I have been a dick beforehand, you've been warned Broads checking on me thinking I'll check back But I got the nuts, bet that on your small pair Never supported any of my endeavours And I've been raised by better, why d'you think I would call there? Cold season, go and find you a warm heart I just got a taste of the money and want more Been sleeping alone for the last four years So at this point of my life, there's not a bed I would share I'm good, we can be friends, ends will stay separate Against nature, changing his spots, the leopard did You probably thought you got me all figured out Well, which of us idiots is bigger now? Single Malt in the tumbler Asinine comments get ignored as I rap into a Wunder I hope you find the love of your life What if I find loving my life is much more important? Hard to judge bars you could never pass Done being modest to a fault, here's a better draft You can be blind and given a stick Regain sight, and see that dog never really existed...

[Verse 1] Laid prone on jade stones The day slows to a creep, allowing the body To recharge cells in non-REM sleep Phone on "fuck it", today's about me Nobody's business whose company I keep Carefree is how I wanna be Sitting in my favorite seat, the purple egg chair Across from the couch with my favorite peeps Exhale, smoke drifts from both lips Watermelon peppermint, moments frozen In time, Art Pepper on the saxophone, heaven-sent A fruit platter on the side, antioxidants in white tea That's how I keep my cypher complete While I sit and write my life to these beats Telling punk rebels punt pebbles, find a quarry not a quarrel Headphones on blast, to cordially ignore you, as I'm [Chorus] Exploring life's great mysteries Seeing the sights in dreams vividly Heart-to-heart talks with no fear All judgment withheld, we just share The finest goods that the palate could appreciate Little to no tension to alleviate One woman, some friends, recline Making love just to pass the time (A man can dream...) [Verse 2] Watching docs on space travel Then wage battles for chip stacks and rakebacks At a friend's home with a gray cat purring Laying on my chest, that'll mitigate stress Or, shooting in an empty gym, by myself Just the ball and the rim as every pore in my skin Opens the vent, hot shower, cold shower, alternate Refuel with artesian water then I'm on my way Simple pleasures, movie marathon, a few pizzas Oak-barreled rhum, Vanilla Coke, but no reefer Museum hopping while I'm out with a gatinha That make'em ask their man "have you seen her?" These are just days in the life of a dreamer Worth waking up to, while taking in the view Of a city never resting, new impressions so I'm curious with questions like what's the human essence? [Chorus] Exploring life's great mysteries Seeing the sights in dreams vividly Heart-to-heart talks with no fear All judgment withheld, we just share The finest goods that the palate could appreciate Little to no tension to alleviate One woman, some friends, recline Making love just to pass the time (A man can dream...)

Nothing New 04:09
[Verse 1] A token from the sages, never once heeded Resulted in a hatred that we keep feeding And let it stew because we can't see the Inherent fault in that logic, 'cause we don't need it On a place called Earth, driven by base desires We measure value by what is acquired Too often I saw pain when I looked inside a woman's eyes Fourty-three thousand two hundred times, how do you empathize? Policía's in on it, so are priests and judges Girls are trafficked, everybody wants a piece of it Corruption's deep-seated, men have never seemed above it Some extremists see rape as a form of worship Difficult to see beauty in this world, yet Nothing else will keep us wanting more from our existence Things we do to each other alter the distance Between us, are we enemies or brothers and sisters? Everything alleged don't mean everything's permitted While lies and deception run rampant A story got posted, while the so-called Female suicide bomber is living in Morocco A teen is shot and killed on a dashcam Will atrocities continue till the last man? Something's cynical about an Act of Free Choice Especially when gold reserves become a key point Germany's expending soldiers in a proxy war The queues of refugees are getting longer, and the rate Of species going extinct, is higher than it was before Governments invite companies to write our laws Gun control is just a topic for civilians As governments peddle merchandise by the billions Terrorism is a matter of perspective, when people bomb your city Yeah, you wanna get'em back, it's A vicious cycle of violence that's not unlike a thunderstorm Appeal to a man's rage, he will run along Ready for the octagon on Captagon, unfazed by the slaughter Carried out, just like at the Bataclan... [Verse 2] People looking to the skies for guidance That never brought anything but rain, hail and supercells Gods only answer prayers of the rich We rationalize away whenever logic doesn't fit Personality cults are a bane, it's absurd We're told to think freely, yet behave as the herd Addicted to name brands, trying to sell what we can We turn ourselves into them, then we smile for the cams Told to empathize and yet block out the suffering Don't want to be judged while trying to provide sustenance To be blunt, we're the regular's table attending A screening of "Nothing New on the Middle Eastern Front" Makes me wonder when the Reapers come Although I'm thankful every day I see the Sun Finding solace in moments with friends, although they're getting rarer Noone but myself gets to tell me to cheer up...

Unobtainium 02:50
People always tell you "love yourself" That's redundant, I'm the only one that does it So I sarcastically explain to them That everything I want out of love is unobtainium Strangers love to see the pain I'm in When they tell me that they want me on the stage again We're all users, addicts Selfish, wounded, justifying madness The way I've aged never lets you see my mind's scars Life in slow motion, when I write it's like a time warp Back and forth, slow it down Fast forward, there's enough time to go around Your voice says it, I don't even need the words So when they hit my eardrums, it won't even hurt It's just a means to confirm how Reluctance in the end was wise, seeing how it turned out Alcoholic, but my gin is just platonic When lovedrunk, I feel my impaired judgment's neurotic I'm running loops, but refuse to jump through a hoop And frankly I don't understand what love has got to do with it We just give each other vibes, taking what we can While we enrich each other's lies My eyes are like salt flats, too dry to cry Those shed tears from past years became crystallized Repeating patterns, till it's groundhog day again All the crushes left me crushed, within my naked skin These brown eyes that you are gazing in Are tired of being told what I desire is unobtainium
