lyrics:
We've been through a lot, a lot of shit
now it's time to fight, fight against
against this depression and evil vibe
this is the time we will take over our lives

We've been submersed deep deep down
we've lost our faith into this evil town
we have to get back, get back to our own feet
we had enough, enough with this shit!

and now we have our head up high
we know what it's true and never dies
and now we step up with god's command
we won't take it anymore, not get stuck into the sand

It won't take forever just to reach our dream
it won't take forever to delete the bad scene
it won't take forever to hold your hand
it won't take forever to the promised land

it won't take forever to live again
it won't take forever to face the sun
it won't take forever, it won't take forever!

Rock and Roll Kills

It Won't Take Forever

A song written during an 11 week furlough in 2020… was a way to describe what was upon us all. I had a hunch.. but nobody knew what was really happening .

My singing has been invariably described as, “ painful to listen to”, … “For a singer, he’s a pretty good drummer “, … “ He sings about as good as a fish rides a bicycle”,…” you’re not doing yourself any favors by trying to sing”,…it’s okay, it’s just punk rock.. if you agree, I surely don’t mind! I just like stringing sounds together, for a fun hobby. I play and sing all the parts on my own tunes, for better or worse!… if I can inspire anyone, I’m happy, otherwise, carry on through your sunshining day !🤩

Lyrics:
Stuck in the day of The Deceiver 
What did you receive? What have we gained?
Following The Way, a true believer 
hoping that the Light will have its’say ￼￼

I warned you out loud,now we got all of this
I warned you out loud, now we got all of this 
I warned it out loud, now we got all of this 
I warned it out loud,now we got such a mess ￼￼

Put in your place,a tale(tail) between us
what have we gained? What have we done? 
Running in place, a road to nowhere 
Hoping that the day will come again 

I warned it out loud, now we got all of this 
I warned you out loud, now we got such a mess 
I warned you out loud, now we got all of this 
I warned it outloud, time to get out of this ￼￼￼

I warned it out loud, how we got all of this 
I warned it out loud now we got all of this 
I warn you all now, gonna get out of this ￼￼
I warn you all now, got to get out of this

Get Out of This One…

Quantum theory brilliantly explains the physical universe. But the certainty of every quantum state is dependent on an "observer" and physicists are wrestling with what that means: Consciousness is the foundation and source of everything. 

And quantum theory cannot explain consciousness any more than it can explain love, the perception of color or sound, or the taste of chocolate. Because consciousness (or spirit) creates the physical universe, not the other way around.

Lyrics:

Super Colliders

I'm no friend of quantum mechanics
Not afraid of super colliders
I could barely pass mathematics
But I knew that I was on fire
And I knew you were to me
More than just matter energy
And I'm going to have to find the answer

But when I sought the implicate order
The wave collapsed into water
And I know you don't want to hear it:
Underneath it all we are spirit
A voice is whispering in the ear of Mr. Verlinde:
Four universes remain chaotic

Now they find the conscious mind is driving everything
I confess this consciousness once heard the angels sing
I'll make it back to heaven's gate winding a golden string
And smile at the absurdity when I should be laughing

I'm no friend of quantum mechanics
Not afraid of super colliders
Done my share of mental gymnastics
But my heart keeps taking me higher
The gravity of it all is emerging as we fall
The irony is not lost on me

Now they find the conscious mind is driving everything
I confess this consciousness once heard the angels sing
I'll make it back to heaven's gate winding a golden string
And smile at the absurdity when I should be laughing

I'm no friend of quantum mechanics
Not afraid of super colliders

Dear Reader, 

What is existence? Who made time? Is there a governing force? These are questions that cannot be answered with any certainty. Humankind has spent thousands of years creating stories to answer these questions and there are as many answers as there are cultures. 

When something good happens, there is a tendency for some to thank a deity. But what about when something bad happens? Some will say that this event was the deity's doing too, and that it is all part of some grand plan. 

I prefer not to twist myself into a pretzel attempting to apply logic to what are leaps of faith. And so, I follow science as it attempts to get closer to truth. In this song, I apply—in a whimsical way—a religious trope (Say Amen) to what is my secular belief. I encourage all to follow their own beliefs, whether sacred or secular. I cast no aspersions no matter what your beliefs, so long as those beliefs do not impinge upon the beliefs and freedoms of others. 

My special thanks to Audric Jankauskas for joining me on this song. His immense talent as a guitarist may be known to those of you who have heard him play on several of my other songs, but you should also know of his great musicianship, arranging and compositional skills. Audric added those beautiful angular lines toward the end of the song, which I think are so cool. 

This has been a great summer for me. I've had the opportunity to collaborate with at least 12 other musicians—talented players and singers from all around the globe. The autumn approaches, but the music will continue—I still have much more music that I am eager to release. 

Thank you for your continued support.

All My Best,

Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be. This is the interrelated structure of reality. (Martin Luther King. Jr.)

What we observe as material bodies and forces are nothing but shapes and variations in the structure of space. (Erwin Schrödinger)
