Cold Crush Brothers At The Dixie

Prologue — The Pulse of the Center
Not silence.
Not noise.
But the hum of all becoming—
a frequency so patient
it waits for you to listen.

Every breath a pendulum,
every thought a wave—
between collapse and expansion,
the epicenter calls your name.

Drift into Identity
At birth, you were unbroken,
a witness without a word.
Raw awareness glowing—
before the stories stirred.
But time laced you with language,
with names to make you known.
And each step from the epicenter
made the identity your home.

The Goldilocks Frequency
Not too loud, not too faint,
we walk the line the cosmos paints.
Every heart, a tuning fork,
every thought, a spark of torque.
Consciousness and universe,
together, they rehearse.
The Goldilocks frequency sings—
balance is the verse.

The Choir of the Cosmos
Galaxies do not shout,
they wheel in silent prayer.
Curvature threads the fabric,
and every atom shares.
A quark hums the same refrain
as rivers in their flow.
Complexity is harmony—
life’s orchestra below.

Entropy’s Dance
Entropy gives,
negentropy saves.
Order fractures,
memory engraves.
The universe keeps rhythm
by scattering and weave,
by breaking and braiding
what we can perceive.

ΔS = ΔI
Change in entropy = change in memory.

Not too hot, not too cold,
life survives where balance holds.
The cosmos hums, the mind replies,
together tuning inner skies.
A zone of breath,
a field of play,
where being learns to stay.

The Mirror of the Self
The further you drift outward,
the louder grows the shell.
“I” becomes the kingdom,
and ego wears it well.
But deep inside the marrow,
the epicenter stays.
It hums beneath your chaos,
a compass through the haze.

Collapse and Return
Observer collapses wave to sight,
but love collapses fear to light.
Identity stretches,
epicenter pulls—
two poles of the spiral
teaching you whole.

Closer to the center—
you are presence, you are free.
Further into distance—
you are name and memory.
But both are needed, both are true—
the witness and the view.

The Covenant of Carbon
Six arms open, six bonds breathe,
a lattice humming endlessly.
C₆ = (bond)^6
Carbon whispers: leave space for more.
The same in stars, the same in you—
an openness at your core.
Not cursed, but coordinated,
not marked, but liberated.

The Frequency of Home
Not too dark, not too bright,
we live inside the narrow light.
Consciousness and cosmos rhyme,
two voices, one time.
Balance is the reason,
harmony the key—
the Goldilocks frequency sings
through you,
through me.

Return to Breath
Not silence.
Not noise.
But the hum of all becoming—
the epicenter in your chest,
the frequency of home.

Lyrics:
oh fear is old
please don’t yell at the train, just get aboard

oh we go forth
those who stay behind will be left on the shore

who could afford
not to be a part of what we’re pushing toward

over over over overlord,
over over over overlord

oh overlord
please don’t be magnanimous, protect your neck

oh overlord
marshal my desires to your call and beck

oh overlord
good outweighs bad as we approach perfection

over over over overlord,
over over over overlord

how can you try to help me?
how can you try not to help me?
help me, help me,
help me, help me!

oh overlord
take the ones below me and i’ll hold the sword

oh overlord
who could serve a master who sits over lord?

over over over overlord,
over over over overlord
over over over overlord,
over over over overlord

Overlord

Jazzy Sensation (Bronx Version)

Love Bug Starski - Do The Right Thing 1984

I bought a house in the South
For my family and friends
It has a garden as big as Jamaica
We can put up some tents
Invite the friends of our friends
Declare our own independent state
Free of fear
Free of hate

Come to Pala
Take the shoes off your feet
Come to Pala
Come to Pala
Where the grapes are sweet
Come to Pala

No nine-to-five, more life
Basic income for all
It is a real version of Utopia
We speak with plants and trees
The teach us lessons of peace
We travel places deep inside
Free of fear
Free of hate

Come to Pala
Take the shoes off your feet
Come to Pala
Come to Pala
Where the grapes are sweet
Come to Pala

Come to Pala
Take the shoes off your feet
Come to Pala
Come to Pala
Where the grapes are sweet
Come to Pala

Come to Pala
Take the shoes off your feet
Come to Pala
Come to Pala
Where the grapes are sweet
Come to Pala
