In My Car
Crazy how sex and love is a mystery,
You can make love, save it in history.
Choose lust and regret, like on NDE,
I choose it now and see it on DVD.
In dilemma in this vehicle,
At a T-junction, hoping for a miracle.
Left or right, I’m under pressure,
It’s time to put that DVD on and give myself pleasure.
Feels like this car is not enough,
Water won’t clear the front window rough.
I cannot see clearly—green or red?
Guess I must innovate, open the side window instead.
In this car, trying to please everybody, ...
You can make love, save it in history.

STRONG WOMAN OR MAN
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words. ✍️ For what I want to say affects, each of us in it's own personal, ways about how you think. 🤨 WHAT you want and WHAT you need, to be honest with thyself. As in life and love. 💓
🤔 For sure how long and often has it been since, when you finally find someone who is going, to be able to share there true thoughts on there feelings and strength
and energy to keep the home, fires 🔥 burning for so ever bright. For sure let's just keep it real for we all have wants and needs, for sure don't you...

Just Sit In The Truck (I Got This)
If you got Nuthn to say when I'm under attack
Keep that same mouth closed when I take a swing back
If you claim your name "Wes" and you don't check your boy
Then don't get in this mess when I show "I'm not a toy"
If you say you ain't "in it" Cuz your name is Bennett
Don't you dare look my way Just cuz I start to "win it"
If you don't speak up for me, or defend me, when others come against me Don't say a MuthaFukkn word about how or when I defend myself
You cannot tell me what I'm allowed...

Stand Up
I’m sick of this bullshit that most people use as fuel
I’d rather be called crazy than played as a fool
What wouldn’t I give if it meant freedom?
Most people wouldn’t walk this path, but I’ve got my reasons.
Stand up and feel the fire
Reach out to ignite my heart’s desires
An organ I once thought dead and cold
Now I watch the events unfold.
Stand up; get my ass into gear
I’ll face life head-on and vanquish all my fears
I value actions over words
The unspoken language that can’t be heard.
I’m sick of this bullshit...
I’d rather be called crazy than played as a fool

Most people wouldn’t walk this path, but I’ve got my reasons.
Stand up and feel the fire
Reach out to ignite my heart’s desires
An organ I once thought dead and cold
Now I watch the events unfold.
Stand up; get my ass into gear
I’ll face life head-on and vanquish all my fears
I value actions over words

House of Cards
I used to think
That it couldn't stand
not my house of cards.
But lady luck has changed my hand
This game might be different, in my regards.
I used to think that
it was fragile,
The smallest of things
Even then, none could reconcile.
That it could be so easily broken,
and warped past recognizing.
All of the suites would fall away,
When we were too busy sympathizing.
But the cards weren't bent
and the money I lent
helps to pay the Joker's rent
So let's go all in now.
The house hasn't...
That it couldn't stand
not my house of cards.

THE NEXT GENERATION X
As I look around me now and I see 👁️👁️ the changes before my own life. I begin to wonder what would it be like, for the next generation of our own children's and grand children's life and lives. 🤨 For truthfully are they prepared for the future that awaits them, and their own life. YET learning having to maneuver through, the chaos and the dramatic changes. BEFORE there own struggles. 😔 For sure it's here now in this life we as adults and protesters, have to learn to teach and prepare them to truly, understand that there will be struggles. THAT...

Not so (true-truth)
Not so (true-truth)
Lies to win us over
Says he save us from the vermin
The wall he tries to build between US
Not the unpaid for falling down wall near Mexico
Says we’re so much better than THEM
Only hymn(orange jesus) can save us from a bloodbath
So he lies to win us over
Tries to get me to side eye my neighbor
Has his maga minions slinging arrows online
Behind all his bluster he is scared of US
We represent the great new America
So he goes back to his...

I Can Do This
It is Dangerous
To have Faith
In yourself
Without
A little Commonsense
To Understand
The abilities
You have now
Need to be
Upgraded
To the Abilities
You need to have
To have Faith
You can do
What your thinking
Or one will
Crash and burn
Into the scrub lands
Of twisted Bitterness
Of what ifs
Poor me denials
To have Faith
In yourself
Without
A little Commonsense
To Understand
The abilities
You have now
Need to be
Upgraded
To the Abilities
You need to have
To have Faith
You can do
What your thinking
Or one will
Crash and burn
Into the scrub lands
Of twisted Bitterness
Of what ifs
Poor me denials

Rehab
Standing in the floor
Over my head
Spiders
Fungus
Decaying hemlock.
The ceiling was hotter
Above my head
Sagging
Simpler
Try again tomorrow.
Over my head
Spiders
Fungus
Decaying hemlock.
The ceiling was hotter

The More Malignant You Become
Most people duck reality. Reality is a river with a fierce current. You can try & resist but the current won’t stop. It moves faster & stronger then you ever will. People give in. People have to many vices that blur their vision. Most people accept what it is and never go against the mainstream. Swim up the mainstream, go against what is the norm and what is being force fed to you. Living life this way takes perseverance and determination.
Society, civilization, language, just living day by day, people are tired. They don’t have the strength to make change. This is why so...

I'm her
Everybody want to be demons, but I rather be an angel
If I had a scent it would be called Heaven sent
God don't play about me, so you better not come at me, at any angle
I don't back bite or hold my breath, for every thing I said I meant
Every word I say is cemented in writing, like its scriptures
I got the juice, come take a sip out of the pitcher
My only goals in life are to grow in spirit and get richer
God gave you five senses
With the most important one being sight
He gave you sight to see that there will never be another like...

Seven Livers
They had lived many lives, betrayed many dogmas
Carelessly of drama, shame now a silly diorama
Portraying a world of talking socks, empty puppets
Clueless in the face of the mighty's many rackets
Oh they live on today, and tomorrow again
In their pockets packets of love and fresh water
Shooting stars that burn, acknowledging the pain
Knowing it's the means to make their lives matter
For who wants to live an existence of no troubles?
Broken hearts and bodies, emerge from the rubbles
Standing at the ready and prepared...
Carelessly of drama, shame now a silly diorama
Portraying a world of talking socks, empty puppets
Clueless in the face of the mighty's many rackets
Oh they live on today, and tomorrow again
In their pockets packets of love and fresh water
Shooting stars that burn, acknowledging the pain
Knowing it's the means to make their lives matter
For who wants to live an existence of no troubles?
Broken hearts and bodies, emerge from the rubbles
Standing at the ready and prepared...
