A Wolf, Alone
Im going to run into the trees
pastel sunsets,
past the orchids
whisked away now
with the breeze
They said..
I would never make it
here I am
I won't glance over my shoulder
no one will follow me
miss me, chase me
tell me it's not over
but it's so very over
I just want to set myself free
I won't glance over my shoulder
who will remember me?
love me, hold me
keep me from starting over?
oh it's so very over
I'm going to be free
Im gonna run into the...

Wandering Goodbye
Sometimes love's just not enough
You can keep trying and cryin', flying and dyin'
But love's just not enough.....in love
When you're tearing up and sobing inside,
But trying to swallow every little sound
I wanna drown my soul
I wanna let you go,
But i can't face my demons
Without your hope.
And you didn't even know how to love,
I tried to teach you but i wasn't enough,
There's other people who you can't trust,
And i couldn't kill them before you gave up
Biting into the memories,
Suffocating in old...
You can keep trying and cryin', flying and dyin'
But love's just not enough.....in love
When you're tearing up and sobing inside,
But trying to swallow every little sound
I wanna drown my soul
I wanna let you go,
But i can't face my demons
Without your hope.
And you didn't even know how to love,
I tried to teach you but i wasn't enough,
There's other people who you can't trust,
And i couldn't kill them before you gave up
Biting into the memories,
Suffocating in old...

JOHNNY DID (A JOHNNY SONG)
Johnny had a cap gun
6-shots and a honey bun
by his side oh yes he did.
Johnny had a purpose here
he shed no tear he had no fear
oh yes that is true.
Oh yes that is true, oh Johnny.
oh honey bun I'm sorry.
All the things we've done.
I'm just a Johnny man
and jolly that you've come
to be by my side despite the tide
you won't run.
6-shots and a honey bun
by his side oh yes he did.
Johnny had a purpose here
he shed no tear he had no fear
oh yes that is true.
Oh yes that is true, oh Johnny.
oh honey bun I'm sorry.
All the things we've done.
I'm just a Johnny man
and jolly that you've come
to be by my side despite the tide
you won't run.

Soot
Peppermint eyes walking on a 45
Burning up together, oh what a way to die.
C'mon baby play with fire, run me round get higher,
You're the king I'm the queen, coast to coast space case.
Play the ace.
Blue boy under my bonnet
Let's take off on a rocket.
Blast off this woozy doozy planet.
I've never been here anyway.
Take my hand, end the day.
The sheep are in the exhaust
And I'm not, I'm not, honey I'm not.
I'm lost and barely breathing,
Suffocating on the ceiling,
With every instant, every sound, every...

Music And Lyrics
I have loved her for who You are
from afar for quite some time -
she being lyrics to my music
not always needing to rhyme
and when we fall out of tune
losing harmonic balance
I pray that the song ends soon
so we can return to composing
our next dance
from afar for quite some time -
she being lyrics to my music
not always needing to rhyme
and when we fall out of tune
losing harmonic balance
I pray that the song ends soon
so we can return to composing
our next dance

Self-Made
I told y’all once before, I’m back on my grind
I got my dad’s blood, I be spittin’ that fire
I came along way, no time to retire
I be pushin’ my luck, spare tire
Y’all haters must be tired of the way I speak
Get on a track and murder any beat
Can’t give time to wack MC’s
We gotta eat — This is beef
Don’t come for me
Y’all better off catching sharks by the jaw and teeth — This is Ki
You gotta respect the name
Came from a King, but never paved my way
Had to get it on my own, I’m here to stay
Never switched up on my gang, Can’t...

Government Issued Recovery
It’s easy enough to say to get a grip
but you don’t know what it’s like to slip
after three months or after six
of keeping up my act
when the world around me starts to collapse
and I know that I’m grown
and I know I have to control how I react
but it doesn’t make a difference from the front to the back
or if I’m at the bottom this
kinda thing is considered common
and as long as we follow the lawmen
we aren’t considered a problem till you look at statistics
and suddenly life doesn’t look so optimistic

MAMA SONG
Everything looks gorgeous, mama
Everything looks right as rain
Everything looks gorgeous, mama
Why can’t I go out to play?
Do you have your jacket, lovely?
Do you have all that you need?
It’s a cruel, cruel world, trust me
I don’t want to see you bleed
Everybody is playing, mama
Everybody is having fun
Everybody is playing, mama
These feet were made to run
Keep your hand in my hand, darling
Listen to the words I say
Many things are so alarming
Maybe you can wait a day
I don’t wanna wait...
Everything looks right as rain
Everything looks gorgeous, mama
Why can’t I go out to play?
Do you have your jacket, lovely?
Do you have all that you need?
It’s a cruel, cruel world, trust me
I don’t want to see you bleed
Everybody is playing, mama
Everybody is having fun
Everybody is playing, mama
These feet were made to run
Keep your hand in my hand, darling
Listen to the words I say
Many things are so alarming
Maybe you can wait a day
I don’t wanna wait...

LOST ON YOU
Charge into
What I don’t want
Dance around
What I do
Stupid courage
Sets me up
And I’m so lost
On you
I’m so lost on you
I thought you knew
I thought you knew
I’m so lost on you
I thought you knew
I thought you knew
Caught up in
The moment
Impulsive
It is true
I move
Without thinking
Because I’m so
Lost on you
I’m so lost on you
I thought you knew
I thought you knew
I’m so lost on you
I thought you knew
I thought you...
What I don’t want
Dance around
What I do
Stupid courage
Sets me up
And I’m so lost
On you
I’m so lost on you
I thought you knew
I thought you knew
I’m so lost on you
I thought you knew
I thought you knew
Caught up in
The moment
Impulsive
It is true
I move
Without thinking
Because I’m so
Lost on you
I’m so lost on you
I thought you knew
I thought you knew
I’m so lost on you
I thought you knew
I thought you...

One Off
Something about 6pm
When darkness creeps in
I disconnect from me
But my mind still seethes, sees
Off the wall
Floating on the floor
Knee deep in the
Knee deep in the ceiling
The air's chilled down
Bicycle rode around
Blows away the cobwebs
Still nothing on unaware, upstairs
Off the wall
Floating on the floor
Knee deep in the
Knee deep in the ceiling
When darkness creeps in
I disconnect from me
But my mind still seethes, sees
Off the wall
Floating on the floor
Knee deep in the
Knee deep in the ceiling
The air's chilled down
Bicycle rode around
Blows away the cobwebs
Still nothing on unaware, upstairs
Off the wall
Floating on the floor
Knee deep in the
Knee deep in the ceiling

The Hypocrisy (Party Of None)
I'm all out of sweet sorrow
Bereft, you better believe it
Part of me knows the truth
But the rest of me don't need it
One of these days we'll lose
The lines that fit between us
Collapse as fractals do
Into It-Self, forever, seamless
Lest we find the light that don't shine,
A black hole full of foundry furnaces
As disenchanted as yesterday's confetti
The magic is all gone and lost is any room left to fall
So burn up
If our rock bottom isn't all that was promised
Wait for waters to rise
Oceans trump...
Bereft, you better believe it
Part of me knows the truth
But the rest of me don't need it
One of these days we'll lose
The lines that fit between us
Collapse as fractals do
Into It-Self, forever, seamless
Lest we find the light that don't shine,
A black hole full of foundry furnaces
As disenchanted as yesterday's confetti
The magic is all gone and lost is any room left to fall
So burn up
If our rock bottom isn't all that was promised
Wait for waters to rise
Oceans trump...
