birth & death
birth and death; an urge and need to go in depth; invest and go in dept; sacrifice, each breath while sweat everything underneath the sun; nothing left;
a process in the belly to digest; throw up at one's face, false sense of progress; lost with or without a compass; I love you, I hate you; recycle mess; qualified for classes, lullaby the masses; to speak your soul is over reacting....
"life doesn't work that way" you must follow a "master"; become a guru and be an "impacter"; still there's...

In the phones
They were in their phones
out on earth,
lost their amazement
for the scenery
and the radiant greenery.
They were an impatient bunch
in a fussy state with no one to relate.
They had a self obsession and they were the children of the shining stars.
Won't you lend a hand
to these overprivileged egos?
Overprivileged egos
in this "reality" show.
We had fat demands
we had everything we needed
we were completely conceited and
we're the children of the shining stars.
Won't you pray for the...

What humans think pt.3
Don't be suprised when it all passes"
The alien ancestors whispered.
The cultures and the mainstream
dismiss the wisdom
and they stay blind.
On the outside
the alien observes the horrors of humankind.
Amazed, the sell out citizens
carelessly create chaos,
the faces of "power" convince them to conform
and in the privacy of everyones domain,
be it saints, sinners, deceivers or believers
and every other member of the human race cutting corners to survive,
they all have one thing in common;
the monkey mind...

What humans think pt.2
What humans think
humans create
humans save yourselves.
What humans think
humans create.
People want purpose
People want perfection
People want hope, comfort and direction.
People want fear
People want confusion
People want mass delusions
and people want mass exclusions.
People want desperation
People want independency
People want acceptance
People want disturbances
People want unity
People want truth
People want to stay stuck in their youth.

fear
i cannot imagine
any other worse
possible way to die,
than lingering
in the sickness
of fear
one's entire life.

Eternal amusement
When the guilt is heavy
and the silent screams were being heard
they looked around at the ridicule they received
and realized the real meaning of happiness,
then they finally get a glimpse
of what's important
every human comes to understand
this trip is temporary...
Now humanity is fading
and our bodies aren't built to last,
the future is a fleeting fantasy
and moments drift by fast.
The ticking and the tocs
is this the only way to live?
Nope.
I think I'll create a way of my own.

i think.
i think we're all just hoping and waiting for
someone out there who's equally as fucked up
as we are.
someone out there who's equally as fucked up

Emptiness epidemic pt.2
Forget the obsolete frames of mind,
unlearn the insecurities.
Eliminate the existential despair.
Hold back the burning rage tiger
there's better, ancient ways to express your divinity.
Now the heartbeat of civilization speeds up, the mind racing 'round.
No control only choices
as the anxiety eats away at them from the inside out.
Bad habits prolonging the search for purpose.
An aimless expectation.
"Hey kids you're the future take this international crisis."
Fast forward to now
the frustration and fear fills them, ...
unlearn the insecurities.
Eliminate the existential despair.
Hold back the burning rage tiger
there's better, ancient ways to express your divinity.
Now the heartbeat of civilization speeds up, the mind racing 'round.
No control only choices
as the anxiety eats away at them from the inside out.
Bad habits prolonging the search for purpose.
An aimless expectation.

COLD, HARD
Truth takes the form
Of a frog
Or a homeless man
And croaks in the rain
Of a frog
Or a homeless man
And croaks in the rain

Epidemic of emptiness pt.1
Cowered in the corner
the lost species sat speechless.
Glancing at the calendar
the days slip away.
They couldn't see
the deceptions
they attached themselves to
throughout their time,
Twas the true existential crime.
But the monkey mind morphs moments into something detached so far beyond "reality".
In the midst of mental devastation
they broke down and drowned beneath the raging waves of subliminal schizophrenia.
There is no real nor rationalizations
only blurred perceptions and denial
and self manipulation ...

The illusion of suppressed suffering
We have a natural impulse
to alter our dimension.
We're clever craftsmen
we've created careless conveniences.
We're young and we're still naive
as can be about ourselves.
We've adapted to complete dependency
brought up that way since infancy.
We redesigned devastation
down to the dirtiest detail
to "enhance" our experience.
We tried to silence suffering which
in turn caused so much buffering
resulting in absolute confusion and despair
deeply disturbing us.
Does the destruction distract you,
Distract...
to alter our dimension.
