The sheep pay for my sins
The sheep pay for my sins
I make a call to you all
I’m being persecuted like an Orange Jesus
Won’t you get up and scream out or
Better yet open up your pocketbook
So you don’t have to suffer like me
Guilty of everything accused of
You don’t care about such nonsense
To busy chasing immigrants
Or the latest culture wars book burning being cancelled or trans bathrooms
You’re behind on your rent
Electricity being cut off
Need new tires on a shit pickup
But all I...

Or the latest culture wars book burning being cancelled or trans bathrooms

A WICKED WORLD
As long as I can remember I never truly thought that my hometown. 🌆 NEW YORK CITY 🏙️ WOULD BE BLANKET IN SHADES OF 🌑 DARKNESS. THE YEARS OF THE INVASION 2020 to now 2024 OF THE MAGGOTS, CALLED THE NEW COMERS OF AMERICA. IMMIGRANTS AS THEY WERE SENT BY BUSES AND PLANES, even walking across the border. WHO KNEW WILL BE DESTROYING THE CITY LIFE. 😲 YET here is the truth of the devastation of crimes, with no punishment or jail time, murders and robbery, and the senseless killings of American citizen. WHO are people young and elderly and childrens....

Off With Their Heads
Round them all up and take them down
It's quite unhealthy to leave them around
They breed disease and kill the trees
Pollute the air, make it hard to breathe
How many could you feed, instead of spending on luxuries?
Fancy cars and bigger homes, leave them alone
Disconnected from the masses, zero taxes paid, were the dumb asses
Surrounded by an echo chamber, everyone loves your flavor
Compliments, singing praises but, you're being manipulated
Only contempt for humanity, altered perception of reality
Community can't be bought and sold, no one...

Welcome to the NWO
Better keep on working or you will be replaced
Question any answers and you will be erased
You're the architect of apathy
Society crumbling beyond disorder
Welcome to your new world order
Forcing integration until you all are one
Deracinated ciphers of the lowest common sum
All the nations crumble as we open up the borders
Welcome to your new world order
We'll teach you truth is just illusion
We'll teach you just what to believe
You could not stand all the confusion
No you're better off on your knees
Freedom is...

not made for this
The more you've got it made
the less I feel I belong here
and I don't know how to tell you
I don't want the white picket fence dream
because I don't know how to explain
how lonely walking the line
makes me feel
I wasn't born to fit in
and I think I've always known that
but I still squish my soul
into ill fitting places
because some days
the need to belong
outways the instability
of true freedom
And the choices that have lead me
to this half life of ghosted dreams
and discontent ...
the less I feel I belong here
and I don't know how to tell you

In death, were neighbors
Throughout your life you made sure your social status kept you away from the little people
You had money, assets, friends in higher places and you were full of yourself
You never gave back to the community
The few times you would show your face in town, you had this attitude
A real nasty disposition towards other's who you considered low, or scum of the earth
Your greed made the majority of us common folk hate you
You never gave to charity
The people you staffed as your help were ridiculed and belittled by you

cheap hotel room
Its got a comfortable bed
and rustic decor
but the view out my window
is a brick wall
and there's dead cockroaches
scattered across my floor
The complimentary coffee is bad
the shower's temperamental
but the walls of this room are thicc
and I can't hear anyone yelling
or fucking or playing loud music
while I'm trying to sleep
I'm glad I picked up groceries
for breakfast already
because the roach problem
isn't giving me much confidence
about their breakfast menu
and I'm not up for a...

Let it Ride
Let it Ride
Something’s missing
Everything is on the table
All the ingredients to make the last supper
Pot is simmering tea kettle is playing
Place mats set for all that matter
Candle stands with a flame
Wine glass full of Rose’
Pleats are ironed and my shirt is tucked in
Hair in place shoes shined right
Stand on the precipice
Of what feeds my soul
Gnawing inside is a demon
Puts himself back into my life
Not what I want I’m tired of chasing
Fables of destiny with a...

They're For Her College Tuition
Jessica stripped and stood naked.
She allowed Brandon to shoot some photos.
They're for her college tuition.

Pimp’s Court
Sitting at the light as my wheels are spinnin
Collecting money from my ho’s because I’m big pimpin,
“Hennessey in one hand while I’m smooth sippin
Gun on standby-in case the trigger have to start clickin,
“Girls on my dick, because my nuts taste like chicken
Pissing their men off so bad their simp ass start shittin,
“The foul mouth fuckers in their grill I’m straight hittin
And my pistol will smoke, before I’ll ever start slippin,
“Full motherfuckin throttle, shattering courage like a bottle

Fritz Lang's Dystopia
They built this shiny cell
For you to live in
Adorned with their icons
Painted with their lies
They don`t trick me
For I am not like you
You`re a robot
Living in Metropolis
They paved this golden path
For you to follow
Your grave is waiting on
Step by step you fall
They don`t trick me
For I am not like you
You`re a robot
Living in Metropolis
"We are the mechanism
Wheels in the gears of society
We are indifferent
Servants of the gods of anxiety"
Wake up they`re selling you...
For you to live in
Adorned with their icons
Painted with their lies
They don`t trick me
For I am not like you
You`re a robot
Living in Metropolis
They paved this golden path
For you to follow
Your grave is waiting on
Step by step you fall
They don`t trick me
For I am not like you
You`re a robot
Living in Metropolis
"We are the mechanism
Wheels in the gears of society
We are indifferent
Servants of the gods of anxiety"
Wake up they`re selling you...

Erasure of an Inconvenient Life - True Crime #1
I consider it a great privilege to witness the passing of a soul into eternity, whatever that may be. There is something miraculous about the quickness of the transitions and emotional changes sometimes involved. It was such with Susan, a 44-year-old divorced mother of three in a Chicago suburb.
I remember my own days of youthful exuberance, though they were spent far from the pomp and pageantry of Susan's. Her teenage years were a portrait of American virtue—a tableau of school spirit and ambition. She had been the epitome of the all-American girl, her days a blur of pom-poms,...
