Don't take me down
You don't live in heaven

Your situation
Is a great depression

Well your action
Wow, they're simply in question

Your justice is flawed
I'll beat you every time

Your fake sincerity
Will burn out my fire

Well you wasted my precious time
And I'll never believe in you
If you try

You'll never be rich
You'll always be poor

You think the fame
Will open the doors

Well you're no leader
So what are you
Fighting for

What makes you think
Your special tonight

You can't remember
Because you're low on life

So who gives a crap
About your vices tonight

And I'll never believe in you
If you try
And I'll never believe in you
If you try

Don't take me down
At the end of the line
You're nothing special and I'm one of a kind
Don't take me down
At the end of the line
You're nothing special and I'm one of a kind

And I'll never believe you
If you try
And I'll never believe you
If you try

Don't take me down
At the end of the line
You're nothing special and I'm one of a kind
Don't take me down
At the end of the line
You're nothing special and I'm one of a kind

And I'll never believe you
If you try
And I'll never believe you
If you try

Don't take me down
At the end of the line
You're nothing special and I'm one of a kind
Don't take me down
At the end of the line
You're nothing special and I'm one of a kind
Don't take me down
At the end of the line
You're nothing special and I'm one of a kind
Don't take me down
At the end of the line
You're nothing special and I'm one of a kind

And I'll never believe you
If you try

Your Justice is Flawed

Don't let the hate
Affect you
Don't let the hate
Embrace you
Don't let the hate
Get you
Don't let the hate
Be you
Be you
Be you
Be you

It's childish
It's dumb
It's jealousy
It's hate

They don't even know why they do it
They think it makes them better

But in reality
It messes them up 
Messes them up
Messes them up

Don't let the hate
Affect you
Don't let the hate
Embrace you
Don't let the hate
Get you
Don't let the hate
Be you

They're possessed
By a demon
They're possessed
By something bad
They're possessed
It's very sad
They're possessed
They've gone bad

They used to be pure
But someone turned on them
If we can bring them back
They will stop burning
From within

Don't let the hate
Affect you
Don't let the hate
Embrace you
Don't let the hate
Get you
Don't let the hate
Be you
Be you
Be you
Be you
Be you
Be you
Be you

They used to be pure
But someone turned on them
If we can bring them back
They will stop burning
From within

Don't let the hate
Affect you
Don't let the hate
Embrace you
Don't let the hate
Get you
Don't let the hate
Be you

Show them you care
Show them you love
Show them you like
Show them above

The love
That has been here forever
The love
We all endeavor

Don't let the hate
Affect you
Don't let the hate
Embrace you
Be You
Be You
Be You
Be You

Don't let the hate, Be you

Don't believe in their bull
Don't believe in their hate
Don't believe in their lies
Don't believe in them today

They don't understand you
They don't know what to do
You scare them off
You freak them out too

They only follow the popular vote
They keep company with those
Who are loved the most

Don't believe in their bull
Don't believe in their hate
Don't believe in their lies
Don't believe in them today

They'll never understand you
So why do you care what they think
They're stuck in their little world
Feeling like they got something to see

When in reality 
Their egos are in charge of
 
What they see
What they do
Who they hurt
Who to be
Who to be

Don't believe in their bull
Don't believe in their hate
Don't believe in their lies
Don't believe in them today

Don’t Believe in Their Bull

Still itching at me
Still tugging at me
Stop reminding me
That there's no peace

What is it
What happened to me
What did I do
Why can't I see

Takes my mind
Takes my soul
I need to break
The spells, unfold

My troubled heart
My troubled mind
I need more power
I seek more divine

Devil steals love
Devil steals control
Devil bleeds all
Devil is no hope

It's more than food
It's more hate
It's more than gold
Save my soul, today

It will take your soul
Take your my mind
Drain your heart
Drain your sight

I need to fly
Into the air
Avoid this hate
Don't want to dare

Save my mind
Save my soul
I need to break
These spells, unfold

I need the strength
I need the rest
Fear no evil
Seek the best

Lift me up
I need to stand
Soon recover
I need your hand

Save my mind
Save my soul
I need to break
These spells, unfold
And, Let it all go!

Save my mind
Save my soul
I need to break
These spells, unfold
And, Let it all go!

I need to, Let it all go
I need to, Let it all go
I need to, Let it all go

Every action, thought, and deed
Creates a reaction we all must believe
What you give is what you get
The law of karma doesn't forget

Good leads to good, bad leads to pain
The cycle repeats again the same
Your choices now shape what's to come
Karma’s work is never completely done

Karma’s path, it’s clear to me
What you do comes back for others to see
With every thought, with every choice
Karma speaks, it knows your voice

Positive, it helps you grow
Negative, it’s lessons to know
Free will guides the road you take
Change your path, it’s yours to make

Past or present, life or rebirth
Karma’s cycle, it finds its worth
Cosmic justice, fate aligns
The seeds you plant, you’ll one day find

Good leads to good, bad leads to pain
The cycle repeats again the same
Your choices now shape what's to come
Karma’s work is never completely done

Karma’s path, it’s clear to me
What you do comes back for others to see
With every thought, with every choice
Karma speaks, it knows your voice

Positive, it helps you grow
Negative, it’s lessons to know
Free will guides the road you take
Change your path, it’s yours to make

Transcend the weight, rise above
Find your peace with endless love
Compassion grows, we all understand
Karma’s hand is in every plan

Karma’s path, it’s clear to me
What you do comes back for others to see
With every thought, with every choice
Karma speaks, it knows your voice

Positive, it helps you grow
Negative, it’s lessons to know
Free will guides the road you take
Change your path, it’s yours to make

The Law of Karma

Forgive what has been done
Let it go
You'll now win
You're now in control

Forgive what has been done
Let it go
You'll now win

Well, now I remember
It was a, not good memory
Well I remember
It was a mystery, mystery

Well, now I remember
It was a, not good memory
Well I remember

The feeling I get
Rips me inside
The feeling I get
Makes me wanna hide

From
The anger
The hate
The emotions
The gates
Of hell
Of doom
Of night
The assumed

Thank you for sticking with me and listening to my songs. I notice the ones who show up, the ones who keep coming back, the ones who let this music into their life. That means more to me than I can put into words.

I hope these songs have given you the same strength and peace they’ve given me. I write them to lift the soul and the spirit, because in times like these, we need every bit of light we can find.

If there’s one thing I want you to remember, it’s this: never give up on yourself. If you want something, you have to work for it and sometimes you have to work hard as hell just to move forward. But I believe in you. I believe you’ll reach that first goal on your journey. And when you do, don’t stop. Keep going. There’s always another level waiting.

In the meantime, there’s a whole universe of music here for you to explore. These songs are written from lived experience and created to be felt, not just heard. If any of them speak to you, let me know.

Welcome to the way my mind works.

Welcome to my world.

Cheers,
MDRJR
