Lyrics:
I don't want you think I'm not listening
I just want to know are you arresting me?
I'm down on the ground x2

I've given you all that you could ask from me
I've given my rights, my life, my keys
Don't push me around x2

I HATE YOUR KIND SO YOU CAN NOT BE FREE!
NOW DOWN ON THE GROUND WHILE I WORK OUT MY KNEE!
YOU HAVE NO WHERE TO GO!
YOU KNOW HOW THIS GOES!

YOU WILL OBEY WHILE I ENFORCE MY LAW!
YOU CAN'T ESCAPE SO UP AGAINST THE WALL!
I AM THE LAW!
SO I AM NOT WRONG!

With all the riots and the protesting,
You can't escape what was long coming
We knew all along x2

Pick up your rocks and come with me,
We'll burn em' down on live TV!
Your reign is done x2

I HATE YOUR KIND SO YOU CAN NOT BE FREE!
NOW DOWN ON THE GROUND WHILE I WORK OUT MY KNEE!
YOU HAVE NO WHERE TO GO!
YOU KNOW HOW THIS GOES!

YOU WILL OBEY WHILE I ENFORCE MY LAW!
YOU CAN'T ESCAPE SO UP AGAINST THE WALL!
I AM THE LAW!
SO I AM NOT WRONG!

I've given you all that you could ask from me
I've given my rights, my life, my keys
Don't push me around x2

Pick up your rocks and come with me,
We'll burn em' down on live TV!
Your reign is done x2

Notes: There's no easy way to solve police brutality in this country, watching so many finally protesting and calling for accountability among officers I can only hope an answer is coming sooner rather than later...


The Line Between Black And Blue

Lyrics:
When you walked away I had a lot to say,
Couldn't let it wait just another day.

You put my world on mute
YOU PUT MY WORLD ON MUTE!

It takes a lot from me to stay mad at you.

Yeah

So thank you for letting go,
It was easier for you!
But thank you for letting me know,
Why my scars grow cold!

So wonder on, out the door.
Bringing pain and ruin to my life no more!
And if you're sad, walk away.
We can this to rest another day.

YEAH!

you can't take me down, we stand, break me down!
Because you're not around!
YOU'RE NOT AROUND!

Let's go!

WOAH! x4

So thank you for letting me go,
It was easier for you!
But thank you for letting me know,
Why my scars grow cold! x2

THANK YOU FOR LETTING GO!
IT WAS EASIER FOR YOU!
BUT THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME SHOW!
A SIDE OF ME I DIDN'T NEED TO KNOW!

Notes: 
A song to those in my past who I finally let go...even if it feels like they let me go first.

Thank You (For Letting Me Go)

Lyrics:
I am fine without your sorrow, but I'm glad you've chosen to follow.

And when the dust has settled, we can find the greed who's stolen your shadow!

Notes:
It seems like finally 2020 was the year when we stopped just feeling bad for families who's loved ones were taken by police, but also took arms beside them to take the fight back to the blue.

Stolen Your Shadow

Lyrics:
Im  here to help you down

"I swear I washed it away!" x2

Here in my home town

"How did it end up this way?" x2

I swear Im breaking down

"I'm just a step away!" x2

Im gonna tear this all down

"I'm just a moment away!" x2

I'm falling toward the ground

"This is the only way!" x2

It's dark when no ones around

"Just let me fade away!" x2

I swore Id be around

"Don't let me fall away!" x2

then thy laid you in the ground

"Please be an empty grave!"

I swear its over now

"Was it just a dream?" x2

I couldn't stay around

"I had to grab my keys!" x2

We moved west of town

"Please don't come find me!" x2

I'm better off where I am now

"I need to find my way!" x2

Help me find my shadow! x2

Can you help me find my shadow? X2

Notes: Dealing with the death of loved ones is always hard and for awhile I couldn't find the words to deal with it, when people you love move on it's as if something is taken from you, even long after the fact you feel like a part of you is gone.







Six Feet And Sixteen Hundred Miles Away

I don't know where I went wrong!
Are we just listening to the same song?
How am i supposed to stay strong?
When all that you do is say that Im wrong!

But I still miss all that I knew,
When I still knew which you was you.

NOTHING HATES YOU LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE!
NOTHING BREAKS YOU LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE!
NOTHING HURTS YOU LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE!
NOTHING HATES YOU LIKE A MOTHER DOES!

how did we let it go on this long?
We have to find something before its all gone!
If you dont want to I will not wait!
Just remember it was you who has chosen this fate!

But I still miss all that I knew,
When I still knew which you was you.

NOTHING HATES YOU LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE!
NOTHING BREAKS YOU LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE!
NOTHING HURTS YOU LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE!
NOTHING HATES YOU LIKE A MOTHER DOES!

NOTHING HATES YOU LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE!
NOTHING BREAKS YOU LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE!
NOTHING HURTS YOU LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE!
NOTHING HATES YOU LIKE A MOTHER'S LOVE!

But I still miss all that I knew,
When I still knew which you was you.
I want to take back all that we've done,
But I'm afraid that that path is covered in blood.
I still miss you!
I still miss you ohh!

-solo-

NOTHING HATES!
A MOTHER DOES! x2

Notes:
This one is pretty straight forward, a mother is supposed to love and nurture....mine only knows how to hate and destroy.

Like A Mothers Love

Foreshadowing

Lyrics:
I do not know, which way to go.
It's nothing new, my search for you!

If the night is bright, I'll find your light.
If nothing else, I will have failed.

No other news, in my quest for you!
But I could use, another view!

I'm fearful now, when day turns night!
Of waking up, without your light!

If it's a thousand yards, or across the stars,
Let my love find you x2
If it takes all night, to get this right,
Let my love find you x2

If it's a thousand yards, or across the stars,
Let my love find you x2
If it takes all night, to get this right,
Let my love find you x2

If I'm falling now, point me to the ground.
My final view, will be of you.

If I'm not around, don't come to town.
They've heard of you, from a different view.

It wasn't right, what I said that night.
It wasn't true, just a different mood.

I've lost your light, I've lost the fight!
But I'm free tonight, I'm free tonight 

If it's a thousand yards, or across the stars,
Let my love find you x2
If it takes all night, to get this right,
Let my love find you x2

If it's a thousand yards, or across the stars,
Let my love find you x2
If it takes all night, to get this right,
Let my love find you x2

Don't let us fight, be free tonight,
Let my love find you x2
Deep inside, I'm burning bright
Let my love find you x2

Let my love find you x2
Let my love find you x2

Notes: We all have arguments with the person we love, but when it's a long distance relationship it tends to be worse especially when other people get involved. I met mu wife online and after 7 years and 1,600 miles apart we went through everything, now we live together and all that only made us stronger together.
