This is an old track that I realized I never released. Written and recorded almost 10 years ago. 

My wife insisted I upload it. Hope you love it.

Love
By Leiland

I give it - I got it - I live it - I love it
I push it - I pull it - I tip it - I shove it
I pick it - I pocket - and no one can stop it..
I hold it and mold it and give it in bold! 
Fake it or make it and ache when you break it
Now give it some time it'll mend on its own
Covered and smothered
Perfected by mothers
For families, for lovers - it never gets old

I'll tell you what I’m on,
I'm talking about that 'LOVE'
Not that musty smelling thing you're finding at the club
I'm talking about the purity of genuine affection
Not the vanity of staring at your own reflection

The pet that died and then you cried
A lick of the lips after a bite of grandma's sweet marmalade pie
It's your brother's, sister's, mother's, father's, lover's company
And 'lovers love' is love as long you be loving somebody 

Love is tender
Love is kind
Love is simple and love is blind
Love is the remedy for all your frowns
Love is what makes the world go round

Love is tender
Love is kind
Love is simple and love is blind
Love is the remedy for all your frowns
Love is what makes the world go -

It tickles the mind if you give it the time
It's a sentiment growing and flowing within
Given the time It will germinate fine
And then bloom into shrooms that will blow you away!

Give it a chance - give it a try
Open it up and no need to be shy
Loving your brother is better than hating another
I smother with 'loving clichés'

Ahh, isn't that something that never gets old?
Like finding money in your jeans or getting rickrolled

Love is the question
Love is the answer
Love is the reason that people are fighting cancer
Love is the soldier - posted in Iraq
Love is why the Prodigal Son, he comes back
Love is the pain - a pillow soaked in tears
It's the reason we reminisce over the years…

Love is tender
Love is kind
Love is simple and love is blind
Love is the remedy for all your frowns
Love is what makes the world go round

Love is tender
Love is kind
Love is simple and love is blind
Love is the remedy for all your frowns
Love is what makes the world go -

For the love of the money
But money can't buy you love - that's why it's the root of evil
Bobbing and weaving 
Now love it - or leave it - I'll make you cry like an onion peeled
Love is divine
Love is a grind
Love is blind
Love is a binding, winding, grinding road with mines
Because Pat [Benatar] said it's a battlefield

I got love for my family
Love for my life
I got love for my homies - and I love my wife
Love for the music
Love for the change
Love for the seasons
I love the rain

Love for my family
Love for my life
I got love for my homies - and I love my wife
Love for the music
Love who I am
Love for the Man Above
And love the Lamb

Love is tender
Love is kind
Love is simple and love is blind
Love is the remedy for all your frowns
Love is what makes the world a go round

Love is tender
Love is kind
Love is simple and love is blind
Love is the remedy for all your frowns
Love is what makes the world a go round

Love is tender
Love is kind
Love is simple and love is blind
Love is the remedy for all your frowns
Love is what makes the world go round!

LOVE feat Asia Elise

Return
by Leiland

Aim
To return to the same
To go back where we came  
To go back and reframe
More than just dust to dust

I am that man in the maze
Man in the middle now try to keep pace
Through the waters I gaze
I'm the man in the run 
In the test 
In the phase

I came with a purpose
Came for the ring not 'circus circus'
I came here to sing these verses
Light to your mind in the dark, subversive

We Choose the Right
CTR now on my chest
Written with the Hand of the Lord
By the Light on the heart like a tablet of flesh

Listen to the 
Listen to the still small voice
Like Geppetto on the strings
Sending vibes from the Source
Listen to the
Listen to the Son of Man
To the Son of the Father
Now listen to the Holy Lamb

Peek-a-boo
I choose you
Pikachu 
Hit them with the Thunder in the move
Milk I assume like a cow goes Moo
When I smother it in honey like I'm Winnie the Pooh
A Word Stew
Salt in the brew 
Many are called
But the Chosen are few
You want to do
What you say you'll will do 
But now dancing with the devil 
Makes it hard to follow through, right?
" I know my child,
I can heal that sorrow because I'm right there too!" 
I wrestle with a devil on the daily
Even with the formula that I know that will save me
I struggle with basics still
I'm tempted too like will I ever make it? 
I hate this sin in me
But I know that I will make it if I keep to the Tree!
	
Aim
To return to the same
To go back where we came  
To go back and reframe
More than just dust to dust

I am the man in the maze
Man in the middle now try and keep pace
In the glass I gaze
And the man in the mirror doesn't have my face
He came with a purpose
He came as the circuit the Word came wordless
He came here speak his verses
Light to a world in the dark, subversive

We Choose the Right
CTR now on my chest
Written by the Hand of the Lord
By the Light on the heart like a tablet of flesh

Listen to the
Listen to the still small voice
It will teach you of Christ
And how to make the right choice
Listen to the 
Listen to the King of Heaven
Bread of life
Kind of like
Rise like leaven









I'm just a servant with a mic 
With name given at the beginning of this mortal life
You don't remember who you were at first
Because a veil of forgetfulness is over the children of Earth
Another Birth and the third at that
Is required to be Immersed in The Priesthood Bath
REMEMBER
Every single negative speck you possess
Is washed out and solved in the riddle of death
Then given that Holy Gift of the Ghost
By the laying on of hands 
By a covenant and oath
Praise!
I've sailed from coast to coast
With Mahonri and Nephi
Who commanded the boats
They built bellows with the vision of Christ
Who Kept a record of it all left it for us nice
A witness to help us to find out the truth
That Jesus the Christ is still calling to you
 
Aim
To return to the same
To go back where we came  
To go back and reframe
More than just dust to dust

We must go back
We must go back
To Zion
We must go back
We must go back
Back now to Him

Return

Apricot Tree
by Leiland

What's poppin?
Out there on the Apricot Tree
What's real?
What might tell that I can't see?
Take up an armful 
Smell so sweet
Eye to eye -When that Truth be told it will set you free!

Who, Deseret?
Born in form a slave with a debt
What's poppin? - Pirouette,
Look at the people and look at the deck 
Look at your check
Then you cut out the ten and you live with the rest
Like ten times when Ten Tribes 
Come running to give us a rest 

First they hit us with a little
A little bitty trickle 
Then they hit us with a lot a bit of flood..
Crashing now with hammered sickle 
We will pass this trial through blood

I hit em with a little  
Little bit of riddle
Him em in the middle where they brittle
Hit em on the roof while I'm playing on a fiddle 
And I him em with a rhythm when I hit em with a paradiddle

Brrrrr!
Hey, call calling 
Magnify right now I'm balling
With Jesus we don't pay
Free drinks of el Agua del Rey
Some way - Sundays
Sundown to sunrise we pray
Repent we preach all day
Follow in the water 
We gon follow the Lord today 

What's poppin?
Out there on the Apricot Tree
What's real?
What might tell that I can't see?
Take up an armful 
Smell so sweet
Eye to eye -When that Truth be told it will set you free!

Hey
Chin up Charlie! 
Come rip with a sickle on barley 
Come now with the  golden ticket
Quickened, the thick and the ripe and the hearty

We better be ready for the fall
Better be ready to stand up when called
Better be steady upon the path involved
Like Solomon vibes as the riddles get solved 

What's poppin?
Magnetic field is dropping
Soon what is hard to see
Will show itself and reap the cropping
Choose ye now this day whom ye serve
We choose the Light
This world you earn what you deserve
You must choose the right!

Praise to Jesus' name!
Praise to Him who Overcame

Apricot Tree

Start the new year on a high note! Stay groovy

Clear and Loud
prod by Pluto 

{Lay me down in the water
There is nobody but the Lord  follow
Lay me down Holy Father
I hear thee now because the Signal is clear and loud}

Take it with the venom
Cause I let 'em
I sat up in bed and fed them
Eleven to countdown to Armageddon 

Ya'll think by the fortnight
Little bit of short sight
A lotta bit of pride in the House of You...

[You] only think with the cranium
Looking to the idols (like the bible) in the stadiums 
For fear of the Babylon roar
Fingers that are pointed from the building without a floor..

Everybody in that we ain't playing any more
Everybody in and we can tell a little story
Wake up everybody two corruption, round them up
But don't disrupt the ones self-destructing 
Forgive the interruption 
Search out the Scriptures to learn the instructions
Seek out the Fathers and seek out the Husband
You must follow in the Path of Trusted

Listen with a heart tuned
Turn down the cartoons
Three nights in the belly of a typhoon
Make way for the Bridegroom!
Roll out the red with the palms up
Last time with the brothers at the sup
Like the Blood and the body as the bread and the cup

Lay me down in the water
There is nobody but the Lord  follow
Lay me down Holy Father
I hear thee now because the Signal is clear and loud

He said don't run away!
He said don't fool around!
He said come let's dance in the day!
Signal is clear and loud

Sent down from the Heaven
And now we wearing the denims
By the sweat of the brow we got to get it
Big PhArmageddon 
They won't let Him in 	
War with the medicine
Sell the Acetaminophen
Fake news both pot and kettle then
Witness the crimes of the End-ermen 
Constantly pushing the message they peddle-in 
God knows the murders that you monsters meddle in 

Many wanna life that is free of trials
Many want a free ride in style
Many want a life that's easy
Many want to say they're woke while sleeping deeply

Letter by the feather on a parchment 
They don't want to read it though
They don't want to risk their life of 'comfort'
Learn a bit of truth
Turn to the rules and the Comforter will turn to you 

Take it as a lemon 
Cause you let him 
You're caught up in sentimentalism 
Defensive mechanism 
For not looking inside of your soul 
Looking for God and the Ultimate Goal
//[Repent]
Turn to Father up in Heaven above
Seek the face of the Lord by the Gift of the Dove
Have mercy on a sinner like me
I am your servant all my days

He said don't run away!
He said don't fool around!
He said come let's dance in the day!
Signal is clear and loud
