So cool how the background singers add  allure to your spoken word. Is it the fault of the barley malt, these waves of grain, in my brain?

is what it is [Ft. AnHero⁶⁴ ]

Sometimes love is strong
Sometimes it flies away
Empty, the womb of song
Forgotten, the bridal day.

Looking back
Nothing to do
Choices all made
By me and you.

Planning for a better future
Planning for a better day
Dreaming in the morning
Dreaming as it goes astray.

Choices made
All gone away
Looking back
Nothing to say.

Sometimes the heart is strange
Sometimes love goes wrong
Sometimes love can change
Sometimes hanging on.

Looking back
Nothing to say
Choices all made
All gone away.

Even when there’s nothing left
Of the old me and you
We still turn in quest
Looking for something true.

Choices made
By me and you
Looking back
Nothing to do.

Life and love r1

"This is life, and I will not lie by saying every day will be sunshine. But there will be sunshine again, and that is a very different thing to say. That is truth."

I dance the dance
Of the barley corn
As the world
Is being born.

Dark wave 
Come to me
We’ll dance together
In the sea.

Dark wave
Passing by
You chill my heart
And grip my eyes.

Dark wave
Passing by
You chill my heart
And grip my eyes.

As I move about
In the early morn
I dance the dance
Of the barley corn.

And all about
I feel the air
A dark wave
Just over there.

I see a dark wave
Passing by
Moving quietly
Through the sky.

I dance the dance
Of the barley corn
From late night
Into early morn.

Dark wave
Passing by
Like a ripple
In the sky.

Dark wave
Passing by
Like a ripple
In the sky.

Dark wave
Come to me
Perhaps friends
We could be.

I dance the dance
Of the barley corn
As the world
Is being born.

Speaking with my lawyer
Monday 30 December 2024

I can see a golden city
On the horizon far away
I think that I could reach it 
If I could sleep just one more day.

Speaking with my lawyer
He says be careful what I say
Should I meet up with the troll king
As I go along my way.

I’ll climb a golden mountain
Climb it all the way
When I reach the fountain
I’ll sit there all the day.

Speaking with my lawyer
He advised me what to say
When talking with the troll king
Just don’t look away.

I can see a golden city
On the horizon far away
I think that I could reach it 
If I could sleep just one more day.

HELLJOSHO X TOADY- pass the perc (PROD BY TAXFRAUD)

drink yourself to death whisky lulliby nightcore hyperpop GAY EARTH MIX

I advanced east into the setting sun
Climbed up stairs from roof to ground
Strove for heaven and turned around
Embraced freedom without a sound.

Became a Buddhist by worshipping time
I drank water and then I drank wine
Swam the Nile, washed up on the shore
Recited the alphabet for an encore.

I turned right and inside out
Whispered until it became a shout
Shuffled cards all day in the square
Wrote three books a week for millionaires.

Began with nothing, won every race
Times changed; I lost my place
Gave up trying to end my life
Played the bagpipes, danced with a knife.

I grew older until I became young
Relied on intuition until it became numb
Exercised until I lost the thread
Gave up running and dined instead.

I never left a table full or empty
I never met a person but I met plenty
Ran away for another season
Always looking for a better reason.

Duality r5

1. I stood in the foyer
Of the Hopeman hotel
Gazed out at the entry
Past a stairwell.

Gazed up at the ceiling
Covered in stars
Gazed down at the floor
Its black vertical bars.

Soft music was playing
from the old wicked east
Exotic dancers
At an exotic feast.

2. I stood in the foyer
Of the Hopeman hotel
Guests coming and going
Rajahs and swells.

Some in chairs
Some at the bar
Drinking and talking
Hookahs and cigars.

Dim lights flickering
The evening wore on
Crowd wearing away
Sensing coming of dawn.

3. I stood in the foyer
Of the Hopeman hotel
Blinked momentarily
The splendour was gone.

Dusty cracked windows
Concierge looked sour
Somewhere a siren
Howled hour by hour.

I stood in the foyer
Of the Hopeman hotel
Gazed out at the entry
I remember it so well.

if you tryna drop fire like a heatstroke
cop an MJ beat, i swear i got the cheat code
