Cowboy Boots
These cowboy boots were made for healing
Walking in your shoes
Innocence shattered
Massage table
Maxwell teaching
Epstein lurking
Dangle a carrot
Of financial assistance
For halls of knowledge
Serpents under the guise
Private plane to New Mexico
In the desert of opulence
Or his own island
Broke the souls of so many
Recruit some of my friends
Pyramid of young girls
Or tea with Prince Andrew
Walking in your shoes
Innocence shattered
Massage table
Maxwell teaching
Epstein lurking
Dangle a carrot
Of financial assistance
For halls of knowledge
Serpents under the guise
Private plane to New Mexico
In the desert of opulence
Or his own island
Broke the souls of so many
Recruit some of my friends
Pyramid of young girls
Or tea with Prince Andrew

Guilty Of…
Lay down the sentence
Guilty of who I am
Why pry into my daily life
A little flower looked at like poison
So I’m not who you are
Who are you to judge me
Still living in this world
Im not going away better accept me or
Live your life who you are
Why can’t I be just like you
We want the same things
Being loved and greeted
Secure in who I am
Why does that trouble you
Im just a Indian among lost pilgrims
You say patriot I say you’re full of shit
Swim in the swamp...
Guilty of who I am
Why pry into my daily life
A little flower looked at like poison
So I’m not who you are
Who are you to judge me
Still living in this world
Im not going away better accept me or
Live your life who you are
Why can’t I be just like you
We want the same things
Being loved and greeted
Secure in who I am
Why does that trouble you
Im just a Indian among lost pilgrims
You say patriot I say you’re full of shit
Swim in the swamp...

Burning Blue
Burning Blue
Flames lick my palm
Dance upon flickering light
Sweat builds up on my brow
As I push the plough
Digging down to my essence
Pull back the shade
Hear barks in the distance
In the in between I observed
Glaciers melting
RIse the sea
Look at me
No look at me
Puddles forming
Below the corncob pipe
Magnify a fly
Or magnify a human
Temp rising
Dehydrate drink some water
Basin is drying up
In a desert of thirsty beings...
Flames lick my palm
Dance upon flickering light
Sweat builds up on my brow
As I push the plough
Digging down to my essence
Pull back the shade
Hear barks in the distance
In the in between I observed
Glaciers melting
RIse the sea
Look at me
No look at me
Puddles forming
Below the corncob pipe
Magnify a fly
Or magnify a human
Temp rising
Dehydrate drink some water
Basin is drying up
In a desert of thirsty beings...

Truth Stands Above
Truth stands above
Step by step inch by inch
Noose tightening around my neck
Thread by thread
Strand by strand
Feel the pressure
Closing in tight as a vice
World around me is sinking in
Step to the Lord to argue my case
My lies leave me nothing
but blank thoughts
Don’t have a leg to stand on
My urge is to rage on
Spouting falsities
Hope it sets me free
How about some distraction
To play on my fiction
Earth is flat
Mars is blue
Anything to...
Step by step inch by inch
Noose tightening around my neck
Thread by thread
Strand by strand
Feel the pressure
Closing in tight as a vice
World around me is sinking in
Step to the Lord to argue my case
My lies leave me nothing
but blank thoughts
Don’t have a leg to stand on
My urge is to rage on
Spouting falsities
Hope it sets me free
How about some distraction
To play on my fiction
Earth is flat
Mars is blue
Anything to...

Cop City
Cop city ( in ATL)
There’s a state of emergency and it’s in cop city
Try and level the land and shoot protesters down
85 acres of beauty trees why would we
Flatten it out for the new world order
Police are the new military
In our community
Smoke bombs and pepper spray they
Gotta put em down
Can’t let the peasants gain the upper ground
Don’t know the heavy hand
is a losing proposition
Would think I’m talking about a far away land
But It’s in our backyard way
Down in Atlanta
Is it really...

Don’t know the heavy hand

(Man In Black) Tethered to my Body by a Johnny Thread
(Man in Black)Tethered to my body by a Johnny thread
Been poppin pills
Til the sun rises
Cash is in trouble
Can’t walk the line
It’s in a cave
In Tennessee
Fighting the demons
Heroin numbs him
June comes along
He can’t resist
His secret crush
She’ll save him
Folsom prison blues
San Quentin too
But my name is Sue
How do you do
Rosanne said daddy you gotta
Go to Betty Ford
Can’t have this no more
The man in black
She said no more
...

Rage Inside
Gotta rage inside
Can’t let him out
Catch a spark
And now it’s happening
Starts as a small hill
Turns into a mountain
Simple convo turns to anger
Wanted to dig deep and find out why I am
Learned that having No guidance
And being by myself
Stops you from forming
Your soon to be adult mind
Had no mentor to straighten me out
When you live in your head
It can’t turn out good
So I’m compulsive and have a hair trigger
Not what I saw but it’s what I’m living
Can’t let him out
Catch a spark
And now it’s happening
Starts as a small hill
Turns into a mountain
Simple convo turns to anger
Wanted to dig deep and find out why I am
Learned that having No guidance
And being by myself
Stops you from forming
Your soon to be adult mind
Had no mentor to straighten me out
When you live in your head
It can’t turn out good
So I’m compulsive and have a hair trigger
Not what I saw but it’s what I’m living

The Hunter
The Hunter
Run around trying to find the right spot
Nature steps up and i reset
But I’m breathing and I’m scheming
To find that place
To let my freedom fly
It might not come on my first or second trip
But I keep scheming and looking
To exploit the weakness that
I see before me
Still huntin for that right spot
I don’t need that much
To get it off and if I get it off
It’ll tickle the twine
Almost every time
It’ll tickle the twine
Almost every time
Even if it don’t…if it don’t ...
Run around trying to find the right spot
Nature steps up and i reset
But I’m breathing and I’m scheming
To find that place
To let my freedom fly
It might not come on my first or second trip
But I keep scheming and looking
To exploit the weakness that
I see before me
Still huntin for that right spot
I don’t need that much
To get it off and if I get it off
It’ll tickle the twine
Almost every time
It’ll tickle the twine
Almost every time
Even if it don’t…if it don’t ...

Cruel Ones
The cruel ones don’t let u up when you r down
The cruel ones don’t let u up
When you r down
Sit and smile at your misery
They sit and smile at my misery
Cruel ones won’t let u up
When ur down
Rip and pull at your heartstrings
Don’t feel…anything
They rip and pull
And u feel real small…Like you’re 2 foot tall
The cruel ones don’t let u up
When u r down
Till a time comes when you don’t care
And leave it all behind
Drop these feelings of being down
And these clowns...
The cruel ones don’t let u up
When you r down
Sit and smile at your misery
They sit and smile at my misery
Cruel ones won’t let u up
When ur down
Rip and pull at your heartstrings
Don’t feel…anything
They rip and pull
And u feel real small…Like you’re 2 foot tall
The cruel ones don’t let u up
When u r down
Till a time comes when you don’t care
And leave it all behind
Drop these feelings of being down
And these clowns...

I Believe In…
I believe in…
I believe in wonder
Believe in faith
Faith of a man or woman or
Believe in everything
Don’t believe in hate or bigotry
And please stay away
From me with hate
I love to hate but right now
Don’t even want to hate me
Hate is real
Not a bogeyman
Love is real
It’s what we believe in
Hate is real
He’s not a bogeyman
But he’s what we don’t want to be
Love is real
As real as life can be
Love is real… it’s really real
As real as it can be
...
I believe in wonder
Believe in faith
Faith of a man or woman or
Believe in everything
Don’t believe in hate or bigotry
And please stay away
From me with hate
I love to hate but right now
Don’t even want to hate me
Hate is real
Not a bogeyman
Love is real
It’s what we believe in
Hate is real
He’s not a bogeyman
But he’s what we don’t want to be
Love is real
As real as life can be
Love is real… it’s really real
As real as it can be

9 yr old environmentalist
Tryin to control and spray the lantern flys
Doing her part with help from Tik tok
Made up a mix to get rid of them
Dish soap n apple vinegar
Sprayed on the trees and sidewalk
Now this is where the bigotry seeps in
Man calls 911 said some little black woman
Was causing a stir
Said he doesn’t know what hell she’s doing
Scares him though
Mom went to a council hearing
Said she doesn’t want to label
But she’s black and a mom
Wants to share point of view
Man...

Being Put In (The Ground)
Being put in (the ground)
Little mans ballin
As I keep my nose to the wheel
Know it’s in him
Can’t wait til his 1st game
I watch him in wonder
Learn as much from him
As I try to give
Learn as much from him
As I try to teach
Wonder of youth
Everyone wants it
But grow up…
And you can’t get it back
As hard as we try
Gettin old really sucks
Not the knowledge…it’s great
But when your body can’t
Respond
Wonder of youth
Everyone wants it
But we grow up ...
