OKAY I WON'T                 Janine Levinson 2022

Guitars: Jonathan Beckenstein @jonathan_beckenstein
Song, bass, keys, vocals: me

Don't be sad    
Don't be shy    
Don't give yourself to every guy

Don't be hard 
Don't be small            
Don't be anything at all

Okay Mom, I won't      
Okay dad, I'll be     
Just what you want
But there's one thing 
I won't be me!

Don't be weak   
Do what's right   
Don't stay out too late at night

Don't be fat 
Don't be lazy  
Keep your mouth shut 
Don't act crazy

Okay Mom, I won't      
Okay dad, I'll be     
Just what you want
But just one thing 
I won't be me!

Time will tell if you destroyed me
Or just simply took my joy
Could it be that I annoy you
Or did you wish you had a boy?

Don't be me
Just be them
Satisfy their every whim

Don't be real,
Don’t be ferocious
Don't reveal my real emotions

Okay Mom I won't
Okay Dad I'll be
Your nice little girl
But just one thing
I won’t be me!

Okay I Won't  -with Jonathan Beckenstein

life is a journey and music is my soundtrack to it ,i wrote this song traveling around south Portugal at the start of summer 2022 and at the tail end of a 2 year pandemic when travel was no longer possible or an option ..
I hope i have captured some of the energy and sights and sounds of this trip and found signs of life

Always wanted to rework my old track called Error Code.
Saw Ian's open collab and added the beats!
This time I focused more on the added stuff and beats 
rather than IPG's flows.

Lyrics

Stars aligning I keep grinding
check the styles that I’m combining
try to get to know who I be
if you hear me then you feel me
are you ready—-now rock with me
now rock with me —-now rock with me
when do verses overlap
it’s so cool it’s called snowcapped

Give-and-take that’s tit for tat
the cool comments thanks for that
the contrast the impact
steadfast not typecast
The vibe being kickass
slow your row don’t move too fast
the real power is laid-back
I sure as hell don’t take no crap

When I flex it’s payback
dropping tracks just like that
rock with me it’s jampacked
back-and-forth then switch back
roll on out you scaredy-cat
or hang tight and interact
but I don’t do no contracts

Suit 
by Nadia Selvaggi

Behold the bewildering horde 
swimming upstream like rats
towards Wall Street's charging bull

Watch the greedy, wretched whores
snatch Abbie Hoffman's dollars
before they hit NYSE's floor

Gold, diamond cuffs, an expensive shave
make you forget you're still
a demon's soulless slave

Bow down before the Golden Calf
Indulge every desire,
follow every darkened path,
while you starve in your dazzling cashmere suit

You're a dupe --
wasting your precious life
on a shallow, meaningless pursuit

You're just a suit 
living an unexamined life of disrepute

Twin serpents coiled around a sword
creating money out of nothing
from the numbers on a banker's keyboard

Proud American still unaware 
this whole system is still run
from a blue blooded bandit's royal chair

Selling out your country's precious sovereignty
To a selfish traitor
freedom's just another commodity

Bow down before the Golden Calf,
indulge every desire,
follow every darkened path,
while you starve in your dazzling cashmere suit

You're a suit --
wasting your precious life
on a shallow, meaningless pursuit
You're just a suit
living an unexamined life of disrepute

Suit by Garddwr Porffor & Nadia Selvaggi
