Conditioned me/Be free

ooo i wish you knew
the things back then
you now know aren't true
the mind can't move
so you want them
to make it right
I bet you hope
that no-one else
would make an ass of you
but they want to
how do you make it right?
Soft breeze in the garden blows
feelings abound inside you cannot show
all the clinging that we think we need
was never any good for me
Strong breeze teaches life untold
no-one lets you sit with inner glow
all the people say you must achieve
they could never know what's good for me
to feel free

Generation Dreams

Sit down
draw a pattern
keep creating
satisfaction
now there's a light on
but its morning
how strange?
rearrange
Don't believe the lie you've been sold
the red pen is not true to your soul
so rejoice your mind it not old
don't regret or forget
The system's centuries old
just a factory to produce what we're told
i knew when blood's running cold
a battle in my head
still i regress
Struggling with more equations can this be
a path for the life, the present, the real me
Inspire don't rely on
the cold facts
re-read
Imagination of the young holds the key
lifting dead weights off your flowing wings then you'll see
life turns a light on
for everyone to be free
Wake up and see how it's been
The league tables ahead of your dreams
The child who sees stars in minds eye
clipped around the head, and told "you're not there"
When the truth is finally told
thousand lives of change will unfold
Now true meaning of life can be sold
No battles in their heads
Inner strength
comes progress

Rockafella Clones

Its easy to be pleasant when life flows along
just like the melody of a sweet sweet song
but the man who is worthwhile is the man with a smile
when everything ends up paradoxically wrong
So get onto your inters, and slide around all night
Red flag conditions, blinded by the light
just run into the week's end
and fly to save your life
leave behind the men who would make it great again, or fake it again
So you've got to protest, don't you wish you knew less
Rockafella Clones
Feel the beat in your heart, make another new start, don't forget to brake hard

The few who feel
04:59
|

You hear the world talk outside
Drifts around my soul, now I can’t hide
Can you hide from this train
That’s rolling away
Lost in space, am I in teenage years
Undiscovered roads of faith
How much longer can we wait
For gemstones dug in fate
That’s what you say
Maybe when you say you can find it out
Reach out for them they’re with you now
You know I know the answer
I keep searchin
But its here my love don’t you fear my son
If it takes 500 years I’ll find that time
Out in the breeze your mind will seize
Places unknown but voices scream
“don’t fear welcome home my dear”
Still its unknown like walking over sheet thin ice above a row of knives
Why would you want to reach us again
Stay warm in your shell with those friends
They’re lost in solitude
You must step out
You must look around
And ingest the clear signs when undelivered
So let me shout
And shake me about
And see a fuse that sits inside
Oh douse it out making you role on the same old path
Cos we’re the few who feel
|

There with me
03:19
|
|||
|
Don’t try to shoot a hole into me
I;m just trying to be myself can’t you see
But when the black dog comes around
Just stroke it to the ground
And it will show
What we know
People always want you to be there
Provide that happiness because you care
Those folks there they shoud know
Sometimes you need it for yourself
Don’t run away
See me today
Touch me inside
And I won’t hide
With you this way
I sit alone and write a song for you
Wen I’m singing I’m not worried what to do
Feeling fragile as a bone
Appear as tough as stone
So talk to me
Then you;ll see
Yeah talk to me now you can see
A thousand thoughts can be daggers into me
But through athousand thoughts one day you will see
Is this love for everyone
Or is there some for me
Can I open to see
Its meant to be
One more week drags on another year
There is no choice ubt love the face of fear
So be gentla here tonight
Hug and hold me tight
Then you can be
As meant to eb
Maybe we’ll see
Its meant to be
Be there with me

A Certain Solitude
04:58
|
|||
|
Looking back at past all today
showed half a boy innocence gone astray
filled with hope inside his heart
one more bottle comes the realisation that its gone
A life divided upside down
spreading joy but wears a frown
insecurities laid on the floor
I cannot take it anymore
In time, you'll say all this and laugh
but you won't find peace of mind here
that road isn't clear..........
Can you see me?
Can you feel me?
Can you touch my soul?
Can you fell my pain?
Its the same again, so feel my shame.
Wake up on a bright sunny day
wonderful but you're bed won't go away
conveyor belt down to the shop
cigarettes, papers, chewing gum
and then i'm gone, so wrong.
Moving feet but run aground
a never ending swollen mound
of guilt that resides at the store
of the mind that has plenty more
Its time, to get out of the bath
But you don't find peace of mind here
Just cry your waterfall tears
That road can be clear

Wanderlust
04:57
|

|
Follow the path, know the trail
was only a matter of time
you'll eventually see the sign
wasn't you who carved it out
distant lies you cannot fake
trying hard just to stay awake.
Getting only background noise
make the problems go away
Maybe we want to let them stay
not the time we crave about
Common ground sets us apart
Dwell on the past or finish before we start.
We don't which way to go
We don't know which way is home
So much that we've discussed
Consumed by wanderlust
We don't which way to go
We don't know which way is home
This is not we discussed
We've all got so much wanderlust.
Consumed by wanderlust
We only believe when we're conscious
Our world is the constant
There's no need to stand in view
Back up watch the new sunrise
With ground breaking symbolic highs
Ground breaking symbolic highs
We don't which way to go
We don't know which way is home
So much we've discussed
Consumed by wanderlust.
We only believe when we're conscious
Our world is the constant
There's no need to stand in view
Back up watch the new sunrise
With ground breaking symbolic highs
Ground breaking symbolic highs.
We don't which way to go
We don't know which way is home
This is not we discussed
consumed by wanderlust.

Travel as high as you can go, relief is not within the snow
Travel as far as you can go and see if its just another show
Travel inside, bypass the soul, and daily highs will never go
Travel along an open road to seek inside the inner know.
Is it just fate? we'll never know, relying on that has left him old
Pain from that will never go
swallow your pills and drift on by you miss the magic of the sky
hang on stop stop leave that lot
get on your bike and see the spot
where you stopped the sign
settle down there and wrote your line of rot
never decide , even though all your wings would fly away
Look, laugh its all a crack
looking outside at buncies bath
Stop take a look, take note
everything sails down all your moats so
life is a choice to choose, my god
Travel as far as you can go relief is all within
Travel along an open road and everything begins
drop all your tools and strike out at what's hidden inside

There’s a world, I want you to see
Know you want this
Know you won’t want to miss
There’s a world, you’ve gotta believe
I can’t back down
Want to turn you around.
I don’t know where we’re going
But what you’re doing
Means oh so much to me
I don’t know where we’re going
But what you’re doing
Means oh so much to me
This is our journey, I want you to see
Know you want this
Don’t want you to dismiss
On this journey, we gotta believe
We’ve turned it around
Our destination’s been found
Now we know where we’re going,
what we’re doing
Means oh so much to us
Now we know where we’re going,
what we’re doing
Means oh so much to us
Don’t quit now, we’ll turn it around

Two steps forward one step back, for me
Do you recall the scene
untouched ruins glistening in green.
Has that satisfied any soul in my life?
There is nothing you can do or say
the addict hides the pills and also hides what he really wants to say
don't cry
nothing here has been fortold
thats a lie.
In the looking glass of hope
there is touching eye to eye
of everything thats packed and locked away
cos i know right then,
don't fear the hidden treasures of your yesteryears.
So in the looking glass unknown
the people who you meet create a symphone inside of hope
feel their heart beat
and walk along that pain trod road with a smile

Orange Lady
03:53
|

|
It's close to closing time and she's here
At the chai stall where we meet
and settle down here.
Buy the round and crack a smile
with the orange lady for a while
then have another to confirm, what we've learned
Verse 2
Roaming cattle, monkeys in the trees
Scooters honking rhythms up the street
Like Tom Cruise in Cocktail
The man mixes, joy prevails
sipping chai, wondering why
we are here.
Verse 3
Sleeping old outside
she has fears
Rain clouds drift our way
She sheds few tears
A life of giving for me and you
Could we do the same thing to
Orange lady, come inside
Orange lady, feel her smile
Be Orange lady, for a while

Heart of Gold

Heart of gold capture me
Why can’t I see
To grab hole and receive
Its self doubt the story’s old
Where is the point where we meet
Without talking but seeing the need
Outside lives come to play
Do I let it stay this way?
Can you see or feel me?
Can I go on? don’t shame my soul
I stand up here today
You’re here inside my way
I’m still a child inside
Reach out from all you hide
Heart of gold, capture me
Why can’t I see
To grab hole and receive
Its self doubt the story’s real

Be brave face the wind with all you might
Everything inside gives you a fright
Crossing others roads is not that hard
Look both ways and there’s nothing in the air
That’ll change the way you stop and stare4
Don’t you know that its all on your side
You stumble down but you get back up
You flick the switch and you’ll never stop
See the eyes as they look your way
Stop it now and embrace the day
Love the things you love for what they are
Shout it loud inside you’ll be a star!!!!!
If they say that your life is a fine wine
Drink it twice and let the outside shine
Do the stars converse of bygone times
DO the flowers and trees speak out through you?
No they don’t they wither with their blues
Grab her hand and take her to the moon.
Feel the fear and you do it now
Your mothers words ring inside you now
Take that banging life and show the way
Its there for him and she and you one day
Love the things you love for what they are
Shout it loud and you will be a star
Then leaf subsides to leaf
So eden sank to grief
So dawn goes down to day
Nothing gold can stay
Can stay!!!!!!!!!!

Travel for your goals for a while
it's never for yourself, forced smile
reach a stopping point, why stop?
cos everything's the same
All the legends of the age
are strangers to our souls
but all the legends of the day
have stories yet untold
All you people can't find the truth
until you find the inner you
Travel for your goals for a while
it's never for yourself, forced smile
reach a stopping point, why stop?
cos everything's the same
Feel your heart string tugged, don't see
everything you feel in me
on that rolling wheel. get off
its harder than they think
So the rolling hills of 'Kesh
bring out the nomad's dream
The village of Munroe
hides treasures still unseen
There's no point in you being there
until you sit still and be aware
Travel on that road and smile
Our stories still untold, thats worthwhile
What is normality you'll see
its fictionality
Thanks to all the hearts and minds
who keep that world alive for a while
Have you ever lived before you die
Breathe out Love and give
Its all meant to be, all the things that have happened to me

Wise in the ways (2018)

sing my Children sing
that is all you need to bring
What you sing is what you are
We're wise in the ways of a healing song
Be wise in the ways,, that's what you are
See the children sleep,
under stars, themselves to keep
Do we think of the have nots
Be wise in the ways of what you’ve got
We’re wise in the ways of what we are
Hear the people cheer
At the joy of a new year
Is there the joy in lands afar
Be wise in the ways of a distant star
Be wise in the ways of our distant sons
Be wise in the ways, that’s what they are
Freezing nights so still and blue
Family friends call out to you
life and years they come and go
Be wise in the ways of those alone
we're wise in the ways, don't be alone
At this time I hear you say
Where’s the joy in all these days
Well every week can bring the love
Be wise in the ways of a flame filled heart
Wise in the ways of what we’ve got
We’re wise in the ways of a healing song.
