"American Lie" 
Music & Lyrics by Madima

V1
They would call me “China Doll” /
Hoped that I’d be more docile but /
This mestiza grew up tall / 
Brash and loud Miss Know-It-All
Model minority doesn’t apply to me / 
Can’t comply to white-washed rules / 
Picket fences be drawing inequities / 
Guards the kings we know are fools / 
You know the truth so why do you keep shouting all your--

Chorus
(Lies) Land of the Free / 
(Lies) Made for the Dreamer / 
(Lies) See and believe / all you said that I could achieve is the
American Lie

V2
Black and white, it’s pretty clear / 
Whose lives you can auction here but / 
I won’t be your racketeer / 
Won’t buy into all your fears / 
I’d rather be an outcast / 
Survived long enough without your privilege / 
I’m built to outlast  / 
Any sh*t you try / so don’t try me / 
You know the truth so why do you keep shouting all your /

Bridge
All your hypocrisy / kills this democracy / 
Split-level house on my back cannot stand / 
Justice is blind ‘cause she’s cryin’ her eyes out / 
From watching her children be killed where they stand / 
We’re only trying to live out our lives that were / 
Promised to those that believed in this chance / 
Keep on dividing us / only inviting us / 
To take back all that you stole from our hands / 

Outro Chorus
(Lies) I won’t believe your / 
(Lies) Talking is cheap, boy / 
(Lies) All I can see is
Regulated Supremacy in the American Lie / 
Lies, Lies, Lies - watch and you'll see a / 
Revolution setting us free from the /
American Lie.

Happy(?)Father's Day weekend - wrote this one a year ago when I was walking around a cemetery with my family and saw so many others doing the same.   The lesson here?  Live your truth and tell it before it's too late. 

"Will & Testament"
Music & Lyrics by Madima

V1
Being better / might not mean your best / 
Keep rehearsing / keep your story / 
Tightly to your chest / 
Let ‘em in but / don’t let ‘em get close / 
Skeletons should / be the burden / 
Of only their hosts / 

PC1
They don’t need to know what they can’t see / 

CHORUS 1
So / bury me in silver / 
Bury me in gold / 
Bury me in all the good things / 
Memories I’ve sewn / 
Shroud me in the things I choose to own / 

V2
History is / written by who wins / 
All denials / all deflections / 
Stop with a still pen / 
Every answer / left unspoken / to / 
Every question / meet the silence / 
That has been my friend / 

PC2
They don’t need to know what they don’t know / 
They don’t need to know what they don’t know 

CHORUS 2
So /  bury me in silver / 
Bury me in gold / 
Bury me in all the good things / 
Memories I’ve sewn / 
Sing to me my praises / 
Sing to them my woes / 
Say goodbye knowing I tried to / 
Be good on my own / 
Shroud me in the things I choose to own / 

BRIDGE
The pain can stop with me / 
It’s only dawn I seek / 
You can remember me / 
But please forget all of me / 

CHORUS 3
Bury me in silver / 
Or bury me in gold / 
Bury me in all the things you / 
Know that I should own / 
Sing to me praises / 
But teach them how to grow / 
Say goodbye knowing I tried to / 
Be good on my own / but
Shroud me in the things I ought to own / 

OUTRO
All I own / you’re all I own / you’re all I own / you’re all I own / 
After all this time I / knew that I would / leave my best behind / 
And that’s you.

I wrote this for my nephew for his 5th birthday - and no, he still doesn't care all that much about it lol

"Say When" 
Music & Lyrics by Madima

V1
Distance / that is what lies / between you and /
I can’t / believe how fast / time has passed us /
By now / you’ve got your own thoughts / and speak your /
Mind you / I’ll be there to keep you in check //

PC1
No need to fear / I’m always here / you never have to look-that-far //
I’m like a beat / that’s on repeat / it’s pumping straight out from your heart //
Baby I’m right where you are // 

CHORUS 1
Can’t promise tomorrow / but I’ll / give you someday /
Wish there was more time to borrow / so I could see / your every change /
I know we’ll meet again / somehow / say when //

V2
Five years / since the day that / you and I first / 
Met those / laughing eyes and / sunshine smile on /
You know / you could never make me run a / 
Way to / my heart is directly from yours / I’ll always be yours //

CHORUS 2
Can’t promise tomorrow / but I’ll / give you someday /
Wish there was more time to borrow / so I could see / your every change /
Where you lead I will follow / just don’t / leave me behind / 
Without you I’d be hollow / so never think / I’ll change my mind / 
I know we’ll meet again / somehow // 

BRIDGE
Won’t run away / I’m here to stay / 
Far and away / I’m the one you can count on / 
When you cannot be strong / 
And we-will-find-a-way…

OUTRO
I know we’ll meet again / somehow / say when / say when. 
Darling, you just gotta say / when.  <3
