All On Me

Ohio or Something

Is It Wrong That I Didn't Cry?

The Last Black Rose

IVY'S PARADE

Verse 1
You talk like there’s no danger,
but the storm is at the door.
You fill your pockets for tomorrow,
while our kids get even poorer than before.
How blind can someone be,
to think the world will fix itself?

Pre-Chorus
You gamble with the future
like it’s chips upon a table…
But when it all comes crashing down,
will you finally say “I wasn’t able”?

Chorus
Change the course — before the lights go out.
Hear the voices — we’re crying out loud.
If you still don’t act, then tell the truth:
Are our children worth it… or not to you?
Change the course…
Change the course.

Don't be stupid
don't be greedy
don't forget the kids
it's not about me 
but the kids
but the kids

(solo)

Verse 2
You talk about your power,
but your power’s running thin.
You shake hands with disaster,
and pretend you’re gonna win.
But every warning sign
is screaming from within.

Bridge
If this is the world you leave behind,
then history won’t be kind.
You had the chance to make it right—
and still you closed your eyes.

(solo)

Chorus (final)
Change the course — before it’s all too late.
Every second we hesitate...
The fire grows higher, the water climbs fast,
and your perfect world will never last.
Change the course…

Don't be stupid
don't be greedy
don't forget the kids
it's not about me 
but the kids
For all of us.

Change the course!

I am a grandfather to 11, I am just starting out to share some of my music, some of which I composed 40+ years ago, there was not much opportunity back then to share my songs. I like many different genres and tend to compose songs for any genre depending how I see them fitting. Hopefully you like what I put out, you are more than welcome to leave a comment, good or bad as I like to see what others think of my music.
