My first FAWM entry

The Drippy Hippie (Sweats with Positivity)

Busted for Possession
They’ll never get my confession
I fight the system that just can’t handle my truth.
They got me in this holding cell
Tryin’ to prove “intent to sell”
Gotta stay positive & see it through.

These snitches need some transcendental meditation
But socially speaking they lack the lubrication

The drippy hippie sweats with positivity
You can’t deny the depths of my clarity
Livin the dream to deny all reality
The drippy hippie sweats with positivity

Got released and moved up to Whitefish 
But had to pass through Browning.
The Blackfoot Nation sure as shit ain’t forgot.
Got me a girl with new tattoos
She’s doing well in real estate
We post inspirational selfies by the lake

I think it’s cute she tries to get me sober
My little pumpkin spiced yoga poseur

The drippy hippie sweats with positivity - I got that drip
You can’t deny the depths of my clarity - I got that drip
Livin the dream to deny all reality - I got that drip
The drippy hippie sweats with positivity - I got that drip

1st time at the drum circle?
Let’s see what you got.
Do you bongo?????
Do you Didgeridoo?

Uh…. does that phone get a signal?
Might want to download a metronome app son
You sound like bullshit

Until then the software shall quantities
I got the visine for all 3 eyes

The drippy hippie sweats with positivity - I got that drip
You can’t deny the depths of my clarity - I got that drip
Livin the dream to deny all reality - I got that drip
The drippy hippie sweats with positivity - I got that drip

Corruptibility Index

Continuous Radio

A song about a young couple getting a divorce after a few years into their marriage

Starter Marriage Kit

A ballad about a friend who took his own life

Flood

I picture a circulatory system slowly building up pollutants as life happens.  Eventually the pollutants build up and the negative things finally begin to seep out despite the best intentions.

Seepage

Metaphors about a bad break with someone you once cared about.  Destructive and regretful.

Roaming Without a Pardon

Roaming Without A Pardon

The narrator of this song sees an old friend after he returns home for war only to witness that his friend has changed for the worse having been scarred by his experiences.

DisFigurine

Disfigurine

A song about waking up one day and realizing that you could be and should be a better person than you are.  A moment of realization that you have strayed from the path.  Also,  this song is basically the centerpiece of my album Corruptibility Index

Benediction

A ballad about falling head over heels for each other from the beginning

Spring Fever

A pretty mid-tempo pop song about watching a child grow up as she begins to lose just a little bit of her childlike innocence only to regain it in the end

Ferocious rocker with heartfelt and sincere lyrics about plowing ahead and not giving up
