More music to listen to while zoning out or performing mindless repetitive tasks.

Courage comes through suffering (my fortune cookie told me so)

A song about a guy walking his dog in the early hours and remembering the love of his life. I often see plane trail kisses in the sky and thought it would be fun to write a song around that image.

Contrail Kiss In The Sky

“Get Wise, Child”

Dazzled by the shine of each dashing smile
Child, you better wise to the guise of guile
Give your heart to dance to their passing fancies
You're like to end up lonely, bitter, and angry

The world is false
And full of greed
They’ll praise your faults
And deceive your needs

Find yourself a love that esteems and improves you
One whom pairing to will make a marriage of gratitude

Through cold, dark nights
They’ll by your side attend
You’ll hold them dear
And thank God for so good a friend

Fallin’ into cults for that special direction
Double-check your step ‘cause bad thoughts ’re infectious
The world is like to debase with a myriad voices
Listen past their noise cause the most are joyless

The world is false
And full of greed
They’ll praise your faults
And deceive your needs

Find yourself the truth that uplifts and refines you
The one the world can’t shake because it builds true fortitude

Through bleak, long days
It’ll keep from distress
You’ll hold it dear
And thank God for your good sense

The world may sway
In violent madness
But don’t you fear
‘Cause you’ve prepared a strong defense

Get wise, child
The world will joy-ride you
Get wise, child
Don’t let the world decide you

Get wise, child
You need a true friend beside you
Get wise, child
You need the truth to guide you

Lyrics
Let's let reason role in
Critical thought now, only!
Multiple sources
Knowledge clean
Societies scientific dream
Reason, please.
Our scientific dream...

You're lost in politics
Why with such a strange bunch of bollix's
Boxed thought
Lies, with minds in survival mode
Poking "their" other side
Not in my life!
Not on my Earth!
Not in this Sol system
Found out with children's worth


This song pines the need for humanity to fully embrace science and real reason especially in the face of modern political influence and it's relative lies and source as an insular disease for individuals.

Politics like anything is a science and with a humanity that embraces science first for everything which in my view it should, then we as individuals need to start reasoning the world properly from all sources... We can only then formulate opinions properly on important subjects and then we as individuals can see through the leaders that lie their way to political power. Only when we ourselves see our real truth (found with proper research and CRITICAL thought) do we see through the lies of others...
The disease is settling for one opinion that confirms your own bias that you want to be true because you believe it to be. That's not scientific. That's a cult
