My grandfather is very sick and in the hospital. The only way I know how to show I care is to write a song. Ergo, I present: "Coolest Man". A song for Geoff Newton.

Lyrics:

Pour out a glass for my grandfather,
Wise were his days and his eyes were like rays of light,
that stilled,
the time,
away.
Oh, my grandfather is,
the coolest man,
you ever did meet.

Coolest Man You Ever Did Meet Yeah The
Coolest Man You Ever Did Meet Yeah The 
Coolest Man You Ever Did Meet Yeah The
Coolest Man

Coolest Man You Ever Did Meet Yeah The
Coolest Man You Ever Did Meet Yeah The
Coolest Man You Ever Did Meet Yeah The
Coolest Man

Oh, yeah.

Composed, performed and mixed by Norsa.

Coolest Man

'untrue'

She's been sittin' on my steps, smokin' cigarettes,
thinkin' 'bout the sex fixin' to happen next.
She took me to her room
and, underneath the moon,
she played my bride, and, I, her groom
on wedding night, with 'I love you's
that all turned out quite untrue.

Now I'm wondering where she's gone
and if she thinks of me
when cold nights feel so long.
Oh, what could have been
if I would have been open minded then,
instead of livin' life in sin,
just fuckin'.

untrue

Please use nice headphones or proper speakers for much better listening experience!!

Freedom is not Free - Master 12/23/2011 Lyrics by Tony Harris

AS I ENTERED THE VA HOSPITAL FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME
MEMORIES, FLOODED MY SOUL
CHINA BEACH - NAM - SEVENTY ONE CAME TO MIND
AND ONE YOUNG MAN I NEVER WILL FORGET
WITH BOTH LEGS GONE AND RIGHT ARM MISSING
A WEDDING BAND TOLD ME THAT A WIFE WAS WAITING
I OFTEN WONDER WHERE HE IS TODAY
AND I WONDER IF HE IS OK

CHORUS
SOMETIMES WE FORGET THAT FREEDOM IS NOT FREE
THOUSANDS HAVE DIED FIGHTING DON'T YOU SEE
IN A FAR AWAY COUNTRY IN HARMS WAY
PLEASE REMEMBER THEM WHEN YOU PRAY
PLEASE DON'T FORGET THAT FREEDOM IS NOT FREE

AS I ENTERED ARLINGTON FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME
ALL THE WHITE TOMBS BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES
AS THE HONOR GUARD SLOWLY PLACED THE REEF
IT SEEMED THAT I FELT MY HEART SKIP A BEAT
I THOUGHT OF THOSE WHO HAD DIED
AND ALL THE MAMA'S THAT HAVE CRIED
THERE IS NO WAY TO IMAGINE ALL THE PAIN
FREEDOM IS NEVER EASY TO OBTAIN

REPEAT CHORUS

PLEASE DON'T FORGET THAT FREEDOM IS NOT FREE
