How do you feel about the rights of others, or about your own?
A mood statement about otherness and uniqueness, sexuality and self-determination.

With great thanks to all involved, may the future be better!

*Milky*
aye aye aye … listen up …

What were you conditioned to believe in?
Is a woman and a man equal are they even?
Love is unconditional then does it need a reason?
If a man loves a man is he a heathen?

If we both love girls have a threesome
bring her cousin, get our freak on
I don’t really care who I put meat on 
you can turn the lights off, baby leave the beat on

I be like …

Love who you wanna love.
fuck who you wanna fuck, suck who you wanna suck.
Love who you wanna love.
Plus you can never love too much

yeah and really though:

See I don’t fuck with the requirements
and I don’t chime in when the choir sings
Hose you down like the firemen
I think the patriarchy needs retirement, so I’m denying them.

• Are you under the rainbow looking up or on a high-horse looking down?

*Malu*
Gay pride wants you to fall, why don't you want that pot of gold. 

*Peter*
You do you I'ma do me
we don't gotta be enemies
jus because we disagree
everyone is entitled to their own opinion
not hurtin anyone continue livin how you livin
be who you are don't hide yoself
if you do then you'll always feel by yoself
I'm not gay but if I was
what other people thought I wouldn't give a fuck
so nothin against anybody that is
it's your choice to live the life you live
live it
people fear what they don't understand
it's double bad if you're a gay Black Man
some men love to see Women kiss
but not 2 men yo that don't make sense
but again people like what they like
but what what you likes not a reason to take yo life

• Are you under the rainbow looking up or on a high-horse looking down?

*Malu*
Misogyny and hate, your mother would be so ashamed. 
Within your lyrics, there beats a second pulse. 
But you don't care as long as you wear gold. 

*Couch*
Looking up not giving up
Sure footing not secure enough 
Thru signaling escape rebuff  
Still limiting by law will snuff

Ya think ya finna stand right up
Until ya bout to loose ya stuff 
Ya medals and your trophy cups
Your devils that a cause stir up

Your chance to be the best in club
Your stance that causes mass erupt
Societal division ta
Keep the power that is stuck  

This ain’t disorderly conduct   
When independence disrupts they don’t give a fuck 
When it comes down to it will I give it up 
Step down from looking down and start looking up

*Malu*
Gay pride wants you to fall, why don't you want that pot of gold. 
Within your lyrics, there beats a second pulse. 
But you don't care as long as you wear gold. 

• Are you under the rainbow looking up?

Under The Rainbow

Under The Rainbow #Fabi|Milky Himself|Malu|Peter Sparker|Couch King

The Seer (TL ) - Core

I've been empty, I've been humble
Been some kind of curiosity
I spent too many years imprisoned in a cell of pure hypocrisy
An eager tutor learned the time
But soon forgot the skills needed to count
I owe you big style oh you treasure
And by god owe you a large amount

CHORUS
I was all charged
I  was incomplete
Scratched up and scarred
But it seems I firmly fell on my feet
Wave the white flag
Ignore what I said
I had love jet lag
But then I kind of met you instead
So many talents
You don't know you have
We're losing our balance
To find it we require a Satnav
There's no hill to climb
There's no more I need
When it comes to my time
Surely you are my missing piece

Hear the cheering, hear the trumpets
Hear the carnival of chaos crash
I think I inadvertently created some kind of a front page splash

CHORUS

You're a jewel a pure treasure
You are everything that I could want
Would you like another cocktail in this Jamaican restaurant?

CHORUS

Missing Piece

This is about the consequences of bullying. Morgan was 13, bullied at school mercilessly and relentlessly, until she committed suicide. When I read about the case years ago I found it distressing and later was moved to write this song. Don’t have a personal connection to what happened, I just found it really sad.


They found her in the morning
The sadness in her eyes remained
They had taunted and they teased
And broke her
She died in her sleep
Alone.

She fought them off as long as she could
They wore her down until the pain took…
She begged everyone
Rescue me from this pain.

They found her in the morning
The gladness in her heart erased
The tragedy of Morgan
Will haunt them
Each night as they sleep
Alone.

She fought them off as long as she could
They wore her down until the pain took…
She begged everyone
Rescue me from this pain.

Morgan can you tell us where you are
(The) life you lost was beautiful to us
Morgan can you show us what to do
(Your) life will shine a light for us from you.

Morgan
We miss you
Morgan 
We miss you
Morgan 
We miss you
Where are you, today?
We miss you.

Morgan can you tell us where you are 
(The) life you had was beautiful to us
Morgan can you show us what to do
(Your) life will shine a light for us from you.

Morgan

One Week To Knit 2

Scotty: guitars, lyrics, vocals
Tommy: bass, keys, adlibs

So, Tommy texted me at 8:13 Friday night to see if I wanted to come up to the city for a day or night or whatever seeing as we hadn't seen each other in seven months or so, at least, and the idea at the time seemed nice but my kids were sick and I just assumed it would be a 'no' from the wife. Plus I was working until 1 a.m. Friday night and had my first Saturday/Sunday off in a while so chances were I'd end up hanging around the house with the fam and doing a bunch of shit around the house that I normally don't get the chance to do. 
By Saturday I had completely forgotten about the presented opportunity until dinner time when I finally brought the idea up to my wife, and to my surprise, she was like, 'yeah, you should go'. 
So I immediately called Tommy who promptly returned my call indicating that, yes, the offer was still on the table, that his wife and kids were away until, like, Tuesday and that I could crash on his couch if necessary. Well, of course it would be necessary. Especially if we were to get steamed to the beams and work on something new. Which was the plan, after all.
So I fought somewhat shitty traffic for two hours until I reached Tommy's place a little after 7 p.m., Saturday. Shortly after arrival we whipped out a pre-rolled Sour Diesel and took the dog for a J walk to get steamed and to discuss how we were to approach our new song. 
We decided it was best to warm up with a few classics, 'Presently', etc., and then find a cool looperman beat to sorta find a groove to roll with over top. Then commence the layering and voila!
By the time we got back to the house, set up and steamed again it was 9 p.m. and we were losing precious time. We wound up selecting the first beat we listened to, the beat that you're hearing now, because I was fucking with this blues riff you hear now and it seemed to sorta work. So we got down to business and after a handful of takes each, this groove was born. By the time we got the groove down and recorded it was time for munchies. So we decided to take a break to order some food. 
One of the benefits of living in the big city is that you can order things like Thai food at 11 p.m. for delivery. So that's just what we did. Oh, and some cookies and chocolate milk.

This song is about that dividing line between reality and the in-between. That space where your chattering mind continues to chatter but that wise essence speaks just beyond the still harbor breathing; allowing your loud to be just a little bit softer now; floating down near that water line. You can paint your masterpiece from there too; perhaps along a quiet beach. Muddle the fresh mint leaves my friend; yes, Sugar and Lime, stirred easy.

Groovy Mon; I want to go there dude

Paint With No Color
by David Husted

The ocean doesn’t mind, mind, the ocean doesn't mind, mind
Drifting down from the water line,  down from the water line
Your loud's a little softer now, Your  oud's a little softer now
Floating down, floating, floating, floating, floating down 

Muddle the fresh mint leaves; yes
Sugar and Lime, stirred ea…………sy          
White………………… Rum………………, 
Hot……………………. Sun……………….,  

The beaches of Shoal Bay East;  yes 
Beyond the still harbor, brea………..thing out 
Mind's…   rush ………………………..
Fear's…crush……………………..

Paint With No Color

A short song that expresses the damages of two people growing apart. The lead vocal and guitar was recorded live and raw and Nat added her lovely piano, vocals and bass lines to produce a more polished track and an expressive lament.

Lyrics;
Black and Blue

I don’t know, what to tell you
Or why we’re so, very black and blue

There’s that look, that reveals you
Here’s the toll it took, left without a clue

You ask questions, I tell lies
And in succession, alibis, us time
Only time

I’m the black, sheep among ewes
Always leading back, to the black and blues

You’re the blue, where all is true 
It’s so plain to you, there’s no other view

You ask questions, I tell lies
And in succession, alibis, us time
Only time

You’ll not step, within my shoes
A promise kept, embrace and bruise

And time is all that’s left to lose
As we find ourselves in the black and blues

Black and Blue

Black And Blue (LIVE)
