Love Lie
I used to love
I used to care
But now those feelings
Are no longer there
All this time
I never could see
That it was never
Really about me
You only love
To get attention
But you could never
Show affection
So if this is really ends
Your love
Was something
I'll have to pretend
I used to care
But now those feelings
Are no longer there
All this time
I never could see
That it was never
Really about me
You only love
To get attention
But you could never
Show affection
So if this is really ends
Your love
Was something
I'll have to pretend

MAN IS JUST A MAN 2
Verse#1
Paralyzed tongue
Spiritually blinded eyes
That is created to see nothing beyond our own reality
Stone and cold hearts
It traps low frequency
Leaving the hollowed vibration
The echoes the sounds of dead end illusions
Disconnection from
Any and everything living on the face of this earth
And far and far beyond
They trade our love with bloodshed
As our innocence lies in the palm's of their hands, and still they must divide us
Chours
What kind of world are we living...
Paralyzed tongue
Spiritually blinded eyes
That is created to see nothing beyond our own reality
Stone and cold hearts
It traps low frequency
Leaving the hollowed vibration
The echoes the sounds of dead end illusions
Disconnection from
Any and everything living on the face of this earth
And far and far beyond
They trade our love with bloodshed
As our innocence lies in the palm's of their hands, and still they must divide us
Chours
What kind of world are we living...

changes
when i was a child,
i thought my father was the problem,
and that my mother was a saint,
but now when things get difficult,
she puts me on the street,
in the dark and the cold,
while my dad drives 2 hours,
sick, tired, broke, and worried,
to pick me up,
from in front of my old school,
my cheeks are tear stained,
and i have bruises on my skin,
and no matter how many times it happens,
he comes,
he comes and he respects my choice to go back,
he knows that its hard to change my mind,
to make me realize she is no...

Illusions
The difference between you and me is quite simple.
It's just that what you call a lie,
I call it being in an illusion.
Sometimes you tend to keep people
Under an illusion just to make them happy
By telling them the things that they wish to hear.
But I guess, keeping the ones you love
or perhaps anyone for that matter in an illusion,
Can be the best and the worst thing you can
ever do to them.
And again, It's ironic for me to say
I hate illusions when I love the one where
I force myself to be in, close to you.
It's just that what you call a lie,
I call it being in an illusion.
Sometimes you tend to keep people
Under an illusion just to make them happy
By telling them the things that they wish to hear.
But I guess, keeping the ones you love
or perhaps anyone for that matter in an illusion,
Can be the best and the worst thing you can
ever do to them.
And again, It's ironic for me to say
I hate illusions when I love the one where
I force myself to be in, close to you.

This can’t be
What’s wrong with Me?
Did i let this happen to me?
Am i so insecure with myself that I’m stuck?
Can this process be undone?
Questions running though my head
Feeling as i am defeated
Happening ever so slowly
Never realizing the bigger picture.
Wondering if i could have stopped it
Each one did their damage To me
Leaving me worse then before
Always wondering if i can heal
Never fully able to before the next
Is this my new home?
Never going Back
Did i let this happen to me?
Am i so insecure with myself that I’m stuck?
Can this process be undone?
Questions running though my head
Feeling as i am defeated
Happening ever so slowly
Never realizing the bigger picture.
Wondering if i could have stopped it
Each one did their damage To me
Leaving me worse then before
Always wondering if i can heal
Never fully able to before the next
Is this my new home?
Never going Back

Fixable or Not
Sometimes it brings out the worse
Not this time surprisingly
Talking about this is never easy
Starts with finding out
Leading to the mood changing
Knowing what’s next
Prepping myself for the fight
Answers all your questions
Not hiding anything
I’m ok if you believe or not
I know I’m faithful to you
Reminding you every time this happens
I can only take so much
Each time seems to be worse
Cutting deeper than before
Making it harder to forget and forgive
I’m not ready to give up
I am done doing it...
Not this time surprisingly
Talking about this is never easy
Starts with finding out
Leading to the mood changing
Knowing what’s next
Prepping myself for the fight
Answers all your questions
Not hiding anything
I’m ok if you believe or not
I know I’m faithful to you
Reminding you every time this happens
I can only take so much
Each time seems to be worse
Cutting deeper than before
Making it harder to forget and forgive
I’m not ready to give up
I am done doing it...

Straw House
Knock three times and blow your house down
Watching you scratch from atop the cloud
Open up and watch them all drown
I'm screaming without making a sound
All I wanted was a piece
All I needed was to hear
All I got was rot and disease
All you had was the fear
I'd find you out
Snap your fingers and my attention breaks
Demanding more than what it takes
Hold back the rage till my eyes leak
Slam the door and toss the key away
All I wanted was a ghost
All I needed was a hand
All I got was codependence ...
Watching you scratch from atop the cloud
Open up and watch them all drown
I'm screaming without making a sound
All I wanted was a piece
All I needed was to hear
All I got was rot and disease
All you had was the fear
I'd find you out
Snap your fingers and my attention breaks
Demanding more than what it takes
Hold back the rage till my eyes leak
Slam the door and toss the key away
All I wanted was a ghost
All I needed was a hand
All I got was codependence ...

Prisoner In My Mind
Prisoner in my mind...
All In time....
A disaster you will find.
Through deeper depths,
I let you intrude, becoming a
Prisoner in my mind.
For this I truly regret.
What will happen next...
A disaster you will find.
Manipulation, your greatest strength.
Somehow, you made me a,
Prisoner in my mind.
And after all this time,
Letting you deep inside,
A disaster you will find.
You called me worthless.
Believing that, also made me a
Prisoner in my mind.
A disaster you will find.
All In time....
A disaster you will find.
Through deeper depths,
I let you intrude, becoming a
Prisoner in my mind.
For this I truly regret.
What will happen next...
A disaster you will find.
Manipulation, your greatest strength.
Somehow, you made me a,
Prisoner in my mind.
And after all this time,
Letting you deep inside,
A disaster you will find.
You called me worthless.
Believing that, also made me a
Prisoner in my mind.
A disaster you will find.

Stray
Do your part and stay away from me
I don’t want your motherfucking disease
Have you heard of social distancing?
Just stay inside and throw away the key
Trust the plan/ It will work if we all obey/ at least that’s what they say
-So hang your head and join the herd. There’s no need for you to stray.
It’s better to not say a word, You don’t want to misbehave.- (chorus)
Close your eyes cause you don’t need to see
What’s hiding behind curtain number three.
Trust the plan/ It will work, don’t you agree/ Do you...
I don’t want your motherfucking disease
Have you heard of social distancing?

FROM BEYOND
A BEGINNING A MIDDLE AND A END...🤔 Have you ever heard a silent voice off from the distance, yet it sounds so clear like a whisper from the wind. Have you ever heard someone calling your name, yet when you look behind you 🤔 there's no one standing there, looking over your shoulder.👁️👁️ Have you ever heard of the illusions that you see and hear that you see aren't real👁️👁️ but yet you begin to question your own chain of thoughts, and your own questions as you silently talk to thyself, for is it your sanity or your...
