Because in a world gone mad mean bananas, MA_A means WHAT(tf) heh?! And, so huh... I be playing psychedelic banjo hangman in ma bed, ha.

Great data-driven fact (everybody knows): accessible #education and healthcare programs are the most significant variables to create long-term physical and psychological safety across communities, and yet those are the very things under attack by the American government and its many red hats supporters... #ohboy 🧢 💨

[VERSE 1] 
They cut the schools, then build more walls,
Now prison’s full like study halls.
Three outta four behind those bars,
Never made it far in class or charts.

You want less crime? Here’s the clue:
It starts with books, not boys in blue.

[CHORUS] 
Make America SAFE again!
(Stop the lies spinning the spin!)
Make America BRIGHT again!
(Education’s where we win!)

Give the kids a safer plan,
Not just guns, but books in hand.
Make America SAFE again,
Kids need no jails, they need a pen!

[VERSE 2]
They cut the funding, raise the fear,
But learning is what keeps us clear.
Every dollar spent on school
Cuts down crime. That’s a rule!
Kick out ignorance and hate,
Or fail will be our nation’s fate.

[CHORUS]
Make America SAFE again!
(No more gaslight, no more spin!)
Make America SMART again!
(Read, not bleed… press start again!)

Give the youth a real chance,
Not just cuffs, with no conscience!
Make America SAFE again!
Raise your voice, now take a stand!

[BRIDGE]
Less diplomas, more despair,
Is that really fair and square?
Lift the kids, reduce the crime,
Peace and safety take some time…

[FINAL CHORUS]
Make America SAFE again!
(Not by fear, but thinking men!)
Make America JUST again!
Books, not bars, we must defend!

With unbanned books and a pen,
Let’s teach the truth and heal again?
Make America SAFE again,
And never go back to way back when…

… because life on earth is a Psychedelic Cabaret, and “music is the only religion that delivers the goods” (like Frank said). 

To be clear, all I really know is I dunno shit about fck (like Socrates said:)—music and songwriting included. But(t) I feel it, the music, so damn deeep in my soul! I’m just a humble existential fool, a silly banana who likes to play and share, to question and learn. Words are my oldest best friends, hearing myself sing is a freaking miracle (trust me on that lol), and I believe curiosity and #gratitude are the keys to happiness… So voilà, there’s that.

Also, (if you’re curious) BananaSutra is not just a made up BS brand kinda word, it’s actually the name of my DIY Bible—a collection of songs telling true stories of faith, to help me (and perhaps you) make sense of a world gone wild, like bananas gone foul in shallow ignorance and deadly malevolence… Think of it as an agnostic testament of sorts, an audio book of songs with quirky lyrics about things that matter, like the definition of right and wrong, and the meaning of truth, joy, justice, peace, grace, and awe 🕊️

Some call it Artificial Intelligence, but(t) I call Authentic Imagination, Alternative Ideas, Augmented Innuendos, Abstract Illogisms… hopefully, you get the gist? The point being, life is the story we tell ourselves and LYRICS matter—each @bananasutra song has a wondering root and a loving purpose, guided by one of (my) 7 (bananas) sutras: 
- KNOWsutra : is it fair?
- BLOWsutra : is it foul?
- SHOWsutra : is it fun?
- GROWsutra : is it fear?
- FLOWsutra : is it free?
- GLOWsutra : is it fab?
- BOWsutra : is it awe?
