LYRICS:

I AM YOU

I sell the fables in your history books
Spilled from the lips of elected crooks
I am the one spitting truth in the hooks
The spin in the eyes of your dirty looks

I am the one who fills your eyes
The love and the pain that money buys
I am the reason your short time flies
Loves, and laughs, then fades and dies

CHORUS:
I am you – I am you – I am you!
Red and white and black and blue…
I am you – I am you – I am you!
Speaking lies, but knowing true…
I am you – I am you – I am you!
You fuck me, and I fuck you…
And I am you!

I am the one who pulls the stunts
Taken aback, moved to the front
I am the point, so let’s be blunt
Can’t take the day, you take the brunt

I am the one with keys to the store
Can’t use all you have and you want more
I am the shroud on your front door
Grease the psalms of pimps and whores

I bring the pains that make you slow
Keep those before you close in tow
I am the one who strikes the blow
What can you prove?  Fuck what you know.

CHORUS:
I am you – I am you – I am you!
Red and white and black and blue…
I am you – I am you – I am you!
Starting quickly - done and through…
I am you – I am you – I am you!
You fuck me, and I fuck you…
And I am you!

I am perpetually insincere
Trample all that you hold dear
I’ll have you fall upon your spear
Know nothing much is too severe

I will always preach the end
Each prophecy is just a trend
I am the breath you’re forced to lend
So little time for you to mend

I am the empathy you have feigned
Our hearts are deeply, darkly stained
I am the thing that has remained
You are the one who’s been detained

CHORUS:
I am you – I am you – I am you!
Bloodied, tired and black and blue…
I am you – I am you – I am you!
Starting fires, burning through…
I am you – I am you – I am you!
What the fuck should you do?
I am many-I am you-I am many-I am you
I am many-I am you-I am many more-
Many more-I AM YOU!

(Down-in-the-heart… of-the-C-V-green)
(We fly red… we fly red… we fly red… RED!)

We fly red in the heart of the C-V Green
Mommas & coaches raise ‘em tough & mean
Steppin’ up & steppin’ to the big time scene
Them Dawgs a pumpin’ through national screens

From up in them hills, above the C-V sea
All peoples’ rollin’ down, yeah, the place to be
Fly gladiators bouncin’, ballin’, bumpin’
Step on the field – yeah, dawgs get thumpin’!

(CHORUS) 
Resilient, baby - These dawgs gonna step up & bite cha!
Relentless, baby - These Dawgs gonna step up & bite cha!
Ruthless, baby -These Dawgs gonna step up & bite cha!

(We fly red… we fly red… RED!)
These Dawgs’ll roll up on you in a big red pack
Or maybe, baby come to mourn you pimpin’ in the black
These Dawgs comin at cha - tough & Ruthless
Yeah, ya’ll be rollin’ outa here, roughed & toothless

Little pups scrappin’, eyein’ up them dawgs
Yeah, pretty damn clear, even through the fog
Them adversaries need to learn what abouts
Our Dawgs’ll punish you for tryin’ a steal in this house!

(CHORUS) 
Resilient, baby - These dawgs gonna step up & bite cha!
Relentless, baby - These Dawgs gonna step up & bite cha!
Ruthless, baby -These Dawgs gonna step up & bite cha!
We fly red… We fly red… We fly red…

We Fly Red (No Vocal Track)(12-13-13)

Another guitarlayering test track - decided to keep it.

Drum Hump (TEST)

Punk/Metal speed drums, Latin drums, some techno/house beat and other percussion - then laid down an industrial main guitar riff, 2 punk funk bridges, an incredibly undisciplined bassline, an equally undisciplined lead guitar effort- and some pointless gratuitous samples...  Oh YEAH - Horns on this one, too (check the 2 bridges!  ...and - Viola!!  Punishment for listening, I guess?!?!

Bumpin' Grind (08-27-12)

**((RE-MASTER Lead Track - Toned down in mix)) ---- Punk/Metal speed drums, Latin drums, some techno/house beat and other percussion - then laid down an industrial main guitar riff, 2 punk funk bridges, an incredibly undisciplined bassline, an equally undisciplined lead guitar effort- and some pointless gratuitous samples...  Oh YEAH - Horns on this one, too (check the 2 bridges!)  ...and - Viola!!  Punishment for listening, I guess?!?!

Bumpin Grind (LeadDown) (08-27-12)

New One - Demo cut, no solo, no vocals laid down (as usual) - LYRICS BELOW:



BORN TO BLEED

Born to feel the pain of my brothers
All under the boot if some have they druthers
Compelled to bring our pain to one another
To hear the cries, another wailing mother

People are tough, but times pressing tougher
Shit be rough, babe it’s perpetually rougher
Light’s a little dimmer, come the candle-snuffer
No proper cost accounting, for scores to suffer

CHORUS (1):
Leeches…
Bleed you….
Parasites…
Bleed you….
Life…
Bleeds you….
You were…
Born to Bleed…
You were…
Born to Bleeeeeeeeeed….




Blood under our nails, the world is pleading
Come join the feast… appetites are fleeting
This land won’t be saved, by “weed & seeding”
The land of plenty, with so many left needing…

Fate of millions, dictated in meetings
Some errors apparently deserve repeating
If you ever land it, baby, your fifteen is fleeting
Should just use “goodbye” as a standby greeting

CHORUS (2):
Prophets…
Bleed you….
Tyrants…
Bleed you…
Rhetoric…
Bleeds you….
You were…
Born to Bleed…
You were…
Born to Bleeeeeeeeeed….



If you gonna bleed, you choose the cause
Don’t be taken aback, maybe first take pause
Before you set to pounce, pull in those claws
Don’t forget the fact we’re all defined by flaws

So who’s in control, should we all be calm?
Machines’ greased gears, or greasing palms…
Will you watch in shadows like a peeping tom?
Will you be lighting fuses, or catching bombs?

CHORUS (3):
Institutions…
Bleed you….
Enemies…
Bleed you….
Fears…
Bleed you…
Were you…
Born to Bleed…
Were you…
Born to Bleeeeeeeed…..?

Join The Rebellion and Embrace The Madness, Baby!! This is just some audio Experimentation - Indigenous to Cali. All songs - music & lyrics - are original (There are lyrics included for more than half the tunes, and would love to connect with a good vocalist!)... Sounds are pulled from some quality old and new instruments and overall twisted, but annoyingly functional, pragmatic, previously destructive attitudes - derailed and channeled into something hopefully more constructive! Hope you can dig it... Oh, yeah, and don't forget... Embrace the Madness in yourself!
