(Intro) Ambience of Sound & Motion (feat. GloomIsOkay)

Spoken Word by: Michael Leonard
Written and Produced by: Nicholas Pavoni

Spoken Word:
Her betrayal turned love to poison
His heart now tainted with the thought of madness
It burns like a brush fire in a field of lust
His sanity escapes with every breath
His mind, the only safe haven for him to hide
This is the tale of turmoil..

Prologue (The Beginning)

Contains samples and elements of "Turmoil" by Xenoc

Written by: Aaron Zafran
Produced by: Nicholas Pavoni

Lyrics:
Intro:
Turmoil
She creeps into your veins (x2)

V1:
He can remember being young and unprepared
Restless nights that left a vacuum in his head
With nothing else to fill the silence he must bear
Lying all alone til you hear the voices
and they said....

CH:
Turmoil
She creeps into your veins
Another world
Overtaking all the sane
Eyes of oil
Can't resist her selfish gaze
Endless toil
Cerebrally rearranged (x2)

Turmoil (feat. Xenoc)

Vocals and lyrics by: Chris Volz
Additional vocals by: Anthony Grisko
Produced by: Nicholas Pavoni
Mastered by: Alex Fooks

(vocals recorded at Lil Louie C Studios in South Philadelphia, PA) 

Lyrics:

V1
Create a distance,
Resistance to compromise
Hold back indifference
Delinquent, it’s no surprise

Just go after something,
Try harder, look deep inside
Mind over matter,
It’s the only way you realize

CH.
Blistered and burning
The feeling is keeping me
up, up, up, up, (x2)
You’ll never learn
And you’re taking it higher and
up, up, up, up, (x2)

Blistered and burning
The feeling is keeping me
 up, up, up, up, (x2)
No, you’ll never learn
And you’re taking it higher and
up, up, up, up, (x2)

V2.
It’s all around you,
Engulfing, it’s everywhere
It feels like choking,
But still you can find me there

I know an answer
To clear up this smoky air
Just walk right through it
The fastest way to get you there

BR.
As your skin hits the air
Temperatures rising
As your soul is to bare
In need of confiding

If you even still care
Help me put out the fire (x2)

CH:
(repeat)

Lyrics:
Intro:
When the chants have cycled,
How can I go wrong?
There will be no Eve for Adam
If your apples have gone, gone, gone

I need a brand new skin,
Incarnated debts, incarcerated when
The deeds are left to purchase

On the inside (x3)

V1:
Should I care
If I'm alive at dawn?
In my world
Who is there to see?
Am I strong
Enough to right my wrong
Do I blame
If I'm alone with me?

CH (1):
Follow me no compromise 
Or you'll be left alone
Come with me to save your mind
Or fall forever
Cowering and left behind
You won't see it anymore
Come with me to save your mind

V2:
Following the lonely cries
Is when you'll finally realize
The flame is there to light your way
And lead you to your better days

BR:
To be where you are
To be what you need
For me, I'm the cure
For all your disease (4x)

CH (2):
Spirit you can never break
On the inside
Feelings you can never fake
On the inside
If I die before I wake
On the inside
It's the love that you will
Never take
On the inside

V3:
I curse the day when you walked in
I'll find a way for me to win
I'm taking mercy on you now
Despite the sins despite the amount

CH (1):
Follow me no compromise 
Or you'll be left alone
Come with me to save your mind
Or fall forever
Cowering and left behind
You won't see it anymore
Come with me to save your mind

(instrumental break)

CH (2):
Spirit you can never break
On the inside
Feelings you can never fake
On the inside
If I die before I wake
On the inside
It's the love that you will
Never take
On the inside

lyrics:
coming up empty
I wanna get fired
not ungrateful 
ready to retire

my life's waiting for me
waiting for me outside
in my Mazda Miata baby
I wanna get fired 

have one, two three
better things to do
than stand here all dry
you left me hanging out to dry

coming up empty 
i wanna get fired
I'm not ungrateful baby
to anyone
I want to retire

my life's waiting for me
waiting for me outside 
the cars still running
running and I'm waiting now
to be hung to out to dry

a track co produced by Myself and Michael Black Feather @zinfidel386

contains samples from the 2010 mockumentary film of the same name. 

Spoken Word:
My artistic output thus far when I'm really fucking honest with myself
Has been fucking fraudulent
And now for the first time I'm doing something that is
Whether you like it or not
It really represents me

And maybe that's fucking stupid to want to be represented to care
I don't care, it's not that
but, I don't want to be..
You know think what you want about me
Hate me or like me
Just don't misunderstand me
That's it.

You know all you can do is do something for yourself
Believe in it, love it, and then put it out there in the world
And hope that people like it, love it

I'm Still Here (Intro)

contains samples of dialogue from episodes of SpongeBob SquarePants - "Something Smells" and American Dad - "Stannie Get Your Gun ".

V1:
Does it all work out or fade away and dissipate
I don’t ever question fate but I wont sit and wait
Gotta take which is mine like a course served prime
And If I don’t deserve it I will walk another line

If I’m misunderstood it’s fine I keep on livin'
Every truth that I’m givin is enough for convincing
Standin strong by my convictions until my plot thickens
It is what is I only hope they listen

CH:
Who am I in the mirror
Pieces of the past make the image clearer
I really wonder who am I in the mirror
My present makes my past seem a little weirder

Who am I in the mirror
I stand strong softly I hear her
I really wonder who am I in the mirror
I was so damn confused until fate made it clearer

V2:
Slowly my pace pleadin my case wishin the past you could erase
Look at my face and how it relates to currently placed eriosions of fate
I’m hopin the late emotions make people’s brains open to change
Switchin the lanes droppin the games reversin effects of all the pain

Light projection fight misdirection gotta be testin true to the lesson
Questions I’m askin lyrics I’m blastin uncover the faces walls are maskin
Open my soul directions I flow those who don’t try they might never know
Reject me once I try again reject me twice I’m just a man

Perfectness don’t exist it really aint my business
To shelter my existence from the human condition
got some holes in my soul the demons like steal it
But when the goddess comes I’ll along be ready to refill it

I am who I am and I was who I was
And I changed my reflection and I did it just because
It was either fight or flight eiher liberty or death
So my evolution continues til my days last breath

my evolution continues til my days last breath (x4)

CH:
Who am I in the mirror
Pieces of the past make the image clearer
I really wonder who am I in the mirror
My present makes my past seem a little weirder

Who am I in the mirror
I stand strong softly I hear her
I really wonder who am I in the mirror
I was so damn confused until fate made it clearer (x2)

Outro:
Myself I’ve forgiven
I do what I can

Lyrics:
Give me one warm thought
I Just want warm thought 
I'll make it last 
In colder nights
I'll make it last through lonely times

I'll ride your paradigm
Wrap your lies around me 
Just hold me good and tight
When we say good night

Please let me go (x2)

Every season changes
The world it rearranges
And here we are
Here we are
There's nothing in your eyes (You're moving)
There's nothing in your eyes (so smooth again)

We fade away (I'm losing)
We fade away (I'm giving in)
