i am present 
i am in control
i am a body in transit
i am an ocean of calm 
i am all symmetry 
i am the spine

Affirmations (demo)

as i awoke from frightful dreams 
of buildings splitting at the seams 
i found myself transformed in bed 
with an aching, pounding head 

i pulled my body to the mirror 
to see myself a little clearer 
and what i found myself to be 
was something quite unholy 

his hands were cold 
his armour tough 
his body stiff
and suited up 

he had a ruthless little plan
i wept inside the conman

i know my place 
i place my hand 
i hand it off 
oft in demand 

demand the best
the rest goes by 
i gave my eye 
for more eyes 

i chart the course 
i know my place 
i place the start 
i start the race 

i race the rest 
without remorse 
i’m beating on 
the gift horse 

i hold it cocked- up
cock the walk 
i know the way i need to talk 

i talk in riddles 
whispered free 
and coked up prophecy 

and when i saw what i had done 
i held my hands up to the sun 
i sold it all 
i got it made 
best plans, so fucking well laid

oil slick 
so sick 
momentum manifest 

speed trials
white smiles
grinning like you know what comes next

i want it all 
i got it most 
i tie myself up to the post 

it feels so good 
to be the dog 
i got the hare 
i got god 

i chart the course 
i know my place 
i place the start 
i start the race

she took my cars in the divorce 
so i’m riding on the gift horse
