Mother Earth
time escapes me as I walk through the earth
ancient things are here that shouldn't be disturbed
energies are given off and shadows are cast
trees very wise and old have seen many a thing die
communicating through their roots the trees talk
keeping record of all that man has wrought
sleeping giants of old
the earth cradles their souls
reclaiming bits of herself with the help of weeds
minerals and crystals are elements of our mother
precious metals that make the earth hum
extending their gifts to human
why consume when...

The Extinction...A New Beginning
Fires are blazing
Village in ruins
Razing the land
To build something new
Pollute the airwaves
Till nothing can breathe
Take all our garbage
And fill up the seas
Earth will be clean
Once were gone
The way we're going
It won't be long
Final turn
Has come to pass
The human race extinct at last
Time is escaping
The end overdue
Already too late
For fixing the wounds
Our unending rampage
Of earth absolute
Just human nature
To consume and pollute
Be a part of the construction ...

Coming for Us
The animals are coming for us
In a distant forest some campers set up for dinner
The land the trees are set up for some disasters
All of our vanities expose us to making wrong decisions
We sit in a forest where climate change comes to us
Comes to midnight let’s go to bed in our tents
All we hear is nature talking to us
But we miss the message we think like Kings upon the forest
What we see is Mother Nature Raging saying
Your so small your insignificant
I’m a tsunami sending waves of...

Disconnected
Disconnected
Disconnected but searching for something
You’re in the car electric driving home not a tesla
Hear the phone look down but its almost empty
Lift the console look for my plug i cant find it
In a car not made of combustion im searching
Find the cord the lifeline we all the sudden seem to need
Plug it in my cars wheels slow down im coasting
Seems technology isn’t all its made to be so i
Lift the handle release the latch but the doors lock
Screaming down the Autobahn...
Disconnected but searching for something

Breathe a Breath
Breathe to me a breath I can share
Breath a breath that saves the earth
Climate will hurt us
if we are ignorant to the land
that burns us and quakes us and spins tornadoes
We should all agree living not dying
Is better than not existing even a little bit
So temperatures rise and we can’t lie
Bacon is burning breakfast on asphalt
Breathe a breathe that saves all of us
Plant a tree give oxygen to peoplekind
As fires burn the west 80 foot flames in Greece
No...
Breath a breath that saves the earth
Climate will hurt us
if we are ignorant to the land
that burns us and quakes us and spins tornadoes
We should all agree living not dying
Is better than not existing even a little bit
So temperatures rise and we can’t lie
Bacon is burning breakfast on asphalt
Breathe a breathe that saves all of us
Plant a tree give oxygen to peoplekind
As fires burn the west 80 foot flames in Greece

Human Filth
There is nothing special
about human beings
we've raped the earth
the future is fleeting
We fight over bullshit
and make more new laws
living in denial
ignoring the cause
Beliefs are like opinions
We each have one and their all toxic
Obese specimens wasting air & water
mouth breathing morons
consuming and breeding
not wearing condoms
Carrying capacity
is far exceeded
a global extinction
that's what is needed
Can you handle this?

Blood In The Loch, Freedom Flowing Fjord
By loch and glen, the shadows grow
The heather drinks the twilight’s glow
With Robert’s men, we ride as one
Beneath the moon, behind the sun
The confessor marches with blades of steel
Their boots do crush the Highland’s keel
But o’er the fjord, the echoes ring
With battle songs we proudly sing
Through mist and stone, our paths are made
The sword our guide, the bow our trade
The stag does leap, the raven cries
And freedom lights the coldest skies
We strike by night, a shadow’s blade
In Bruce’s name, the price is...
The heather drinks the twilight’s glow
With Robert’s men, we ride as one
Beneath the moon, behind the sun
The confessor marches with blades of steel
Their boots do crush the Highland’s keel
But o’er the fjord, the echoes ring
With battle songs we proudly sing
Through mist and stone, our paths are made
The sword our guide, the bow our trade
The stag does leap, the raven cries
And freedom lights the coldest skies
We strike by night, a shadow’s blade
In Bruce’s name, the price is...

Private Jets
Private jets
And chemtrails
Flying first class
45 minutes to my house
1 percent carbon footprint
132 times more than you
Caviar and silk robes
Paid for by your local mailman
Billions and billions
Can’t wrap my mind around
But they leave the check for the rest of us
And tweet about bullshit
They think is important
But not in my world
Have a birthday of decadence
Jet set to opulence
Must be nice for a peasant
Close as you get
Be their servant
Pick up...

The Law and Other Trifles
Down in the bayou, where the moss hangs low
And the gators lie quiet in the water’s slow flow
The law come sniffin’ with their collars tight
But they don’t belong in the swamp at night
With lanterns high and their boots so clean
Cut through the cane where the ghosts ain't seen
But the folks here know where the shadows creep
And the secrets kept in the waters deep
The bayou don’t care for a badge or a name
And it don’t bow down to a city man’s claim
So they come with their guns and their silver stars
But the swamp don’t reckon...
And the gators lie quiet in the water’s slow flow
The law come sniffin’ with their collars tight
But they don’t belong in the swamp at night
With lanterns high and their boots so clean
Cut through the cane where the ghosts ain't seen
But the folks here know where the shadows creep
And the secrets kept in the waters deep
The bayou don’t care for a badge or a name
And it don’t bow down to a city man’s claim
So they come with their guns and their silver stars
But the swamp don’t reckon...

Mother Nature’s Revenge
Mother Nature’s Revenge
We live on Cattle and pigs and chickens
Killing the sentient just for dinner
What would happen if we were hunted
We say we are free but it’s not that simple
What happens when Mother Nature freaks out
Cows are men and children are little lambs
Uprising from the animal side all the sudden
We are being hunted like pheasants with no wings
So have them chicken nuggets how about a Big Mac and some fries
Sit bloated stained by sugary McDonalds
Now a bird...
We live on Cattle and pigs and chickens

We are being hunted like pheasants with no wings
So have them chicken nuggets how about a Big Mac and some fries
