GENESIS

Taylor Thompson and Ryan Rottenbiller were two of my best friends in my youth. We lost both of them to an overdose. This is a hope they shall live on in many ways through myself and those with whom their magic now resides.

I can't stand in heaven
With my feet upon the ground
And I learned my lesson
Lost my head up in the clouds
But I came down

Yo this trauma don't come with a warning label
I'm unstable still unable
Stop the storm
This swaying cradle
Fatal fable for your momma
Mourning fate another angel
Added to the cosmos early
Fuck I'm finally feeling faithful
Heart hole hollow
Smart soul it swallows
We live and then vamos
And can't nobody follow
Pain in your absence
How this happen to our Captain
Fixing chemical imbalance
Mix is off by just a fraction
Now I'm losing traction
Keep on talking but I've always been a man of action
Plan is for passion
Kind is compassion
So I take this ashen seed
Plant it deep until it grows into a massive tree
Collect the yield from the cloudy canopy
Take this energy and I'll scream

I can't stand in heaven
With my feet upon the ground
And I learned my lesson
Lost my head up in the clouds
But I came down

If I was a better goalie maybe then I could have saved you
Defense wasn't enough
Triple deke split the D and they played you
Displayed you through stories and pictures
I engraved 2
Choices
Every time I hear your voice it's
Coo Coo Kachoo
Cause I won't keep you low
But I can't get you high
See your smile behind my eyes every day that goes by
Skating laps again
Relapse it's a fact the way the system is stacked
You will come back
But you can't come back once you're gone
I know your soul still carries on
I just wish I could chill with y'all

I can't stand in heaven
With my feet upon the ground
And I learned my lesson
Lost my head up in the clouds
But I came down
I came down
I came down

If you think the 1% give a single shit about the rest of us then you'll be sorely disappointed when it all goes tits up.

Another day
Another dollar made and spent
Another month me and my friends
Can barely afford the rent
As the prices rise despite the helpless cries
Inflation enters chat
Every corporate lie's an elaborate disguise
As if their pockets don't get fat

We're just castaways
Left on this island with ourselves to save
Castaways
Cast away
Cast away
We're just castaways
Thought they would take us
That was our mistake
Castaways
Cast away
Cast away
We're just castaways

They don't wanna be here no more
They're taking off
Building bunkers or private space shuttles
To go up and terraform on Mars
When the damage been done
Slim to none but the one percent means to avoid their doom
Yet we work for them to build our fuckin tombs

We won't make it out alive
Unless the truth can be set free
So if we're sure to survive
We must tune into a new frequency

We're just castaways
Left on this island with ourselves to save
Castaways
Cast away
Cast away
We're just castaways
Thought they would take us
That was our mistake
Castaways
Cast away
Cast away
We're just castaways

See cause we're always pushed to believe
It's about our individual responsibilities
When even together we make up the smallest percentage
They distorted the message
Can't distinguish what is actually reality
And what's an over saturation
Propaganda every station
Pop a panda sans sedation
Good cop complicit in need of salvation
Distillation of a mead for eternal damnation
Hearts in jars of formaldehyde
Keep paving a nation it's hard to hide
From a solar flare
Ask a polar bear
It ain't getting any colder pack the folding chair
Something deep down says stop and still
Post up on the top plateau and chill
If the ride's downhill then enjoy the thrill
Damn i guess I will

We're just castaways
Left on this island with ourselves to save
Castaways
Cast away
Cast away
We're just castaways
Thought they would take us
That was our mistake
Castaways
Cast away
Cast away
We're just castaways

Castaway

The deeper you dive into love the more overwhelming it can become trust in that other person becomes a trust in yourself. Love...deep shit

I fight to breathe
As these walls come crashing towards me
Fight to leave
But these doors they pull me
Doors they pull me

I fight to breathe
As these waves come crashing towards me
Fight to leave
But the undertow it pulls me
Oh it pulls me

I fight to breathe
As your soul comes crashing towards me
Fight to leave
But your heart it pulls me
Heart it pulls me
Oh your heart it pulls me
Your heart pulls me

Fight 2 Breathe

For my loved ones when I'm gone.

Every tree and every stone
From my skin down to my bones
Atoms change as winds have blown
You're not alone
Swirling cloud of mystery
It's really just a mist of me
Human's matter dermis debris
Blended temporarily

When I'm dead
Please don't miss me
I'll be everywhere instead
Feel my heart beat with yours
Voice inside your head
Like it or not
I'm in your house, your car, your bed
Conscious compass guiding
Never be misled

Nervous system signals bliss
Rube Goldberg microbial metropolis
Let go of this decaying consciousness
Despite its daunting
Ominousness
Our energy is widespread
Unintentional integration
Of our universal thread
While my shell is eviscerated
My soul is far from obliterated

When I'm dead
Please don't miss me
I'll be everywhere instead
Feel my heart beat with yours
Voice inside your head
Like it or not
I'm in your house, your car, your bed
Conscious compass guiding
Never be misled

When I'm dead
Please don't miss me
I'll be everywhere instead
Feel my heart beat with yours
Voice inside your head
Like it or not
I'm in your house, your car, your bed
Conscious compass guiding
Never be misled
Never be misled
Never be misled
Never be misled
Never be misled

When I'm Dead

We feed from the trees and plants.
When we expire, we feed the trees and plants.
Thus is the cycle.

Breathe free
Open your lungs
You're not listening
Breathe free
Your mind is numb
But your heart beats rippling

Beats with the earth and it stands
Can't build home on treeless sands
Or any land with any slant
Conscious heads but many ants

Breathe free
Open your lungs
You're not listening
Breathe free
Your mind is numb
But your heart beats rippling

Ripples can't relax
Ripples can't relax
Ripples can't relax
When they leave they will come back
Ripples can't relax
Ripples can't relax
Ripples can't relax
When they leave they will come back

Feed the trees
Your meat nutrition
Underneath the roots a feeding frenzy
Feed the trees
Cycle unending
Full they will be when we are empty

Feed The Trees

The tale of two wolves.
I'd love to make a lame joke here but this one is serious.
Wage Peace Relentlessly!
---
One beast on the side and it's calling for war
Eye for an eye always settling scores
Sticks and stones leave bruises and sores
This pollution ain't suiting so we're looting the stores
Get trampled break ankles with the dangles galore
Manage the floor
Damage the core
Getcha sammich n snore
Over your hours
But they're demanding some more

This is civil disobedience
Laughing like comedians
But attitude of deviance
I'm raising up your premiums
See through you like a medium
While higher than this helium
Burn brighter than magnesium
We set fire spectrum in the sky
Seeing this for miles and miles and miles
Letting every war-horse know
With this flame ignited, yo it's lock or load
Can't let em run the course like the Lochsa
Lockjaw every time they bite the hook that I drop dock clause
Ain't the way that it's supposed to be
Roasting every single rooster trying to crown themself king
Toasting every single poser drown em found em in the spring
Coasting every single shoulder swerve around em like the swing
Make a beast of yourself and your peace you will bring like woah

Like woah like woah like woah
Like woah like woah like woah
Wage Peace Wage Peace
Cause the wolf that wins the war is the one you feed the feast
Like whoa
Like woah like woah like woah
Like woah like woah like woah
Wage Peace Wage Peace
Cause the wolf that wins the war is the one you feed the feast
Like woah
Like woah woah woah
Like woah woah woah
Wage Peace Wage Peace
Cause the wolf that wins the war is the one you feed the feast
Like woah
Like woah woah woah
Like woah woah woah
Wage Peace Wage Peace

Four paws
Forest floors
Wonder trails and wooden doors
Came for battle won the war
Four paws
Forest floors
Wonder trails and wooden doors
Came for battle won the war
Four paws
Forest floors
Wonder trails and wooden doors
Wage Peace Wage Peace
Cause the wolf that wins the war is the one you feed the feast
Like woah
Like woah woah woah
Like woah woah woah
Wage Peace Wage Peace

Other beast sitting opposite propagate peace
Eye for an eye leaves us seeing the least
Sticks hunt, stones grind food for the feast
This illusion loosened by inclusion with ease
Helped helpless humbled selfless
With no guarantees
Fuck the police tuck in the trees I'll bee in the breeze
Rebels throw fire bottles
But bouquets are the keys

Wage Peace

The struggle in love with what might just burn you if you get too close.
But that's also where you may find the most warmth.
---
Pulled from the depths of desperation
No expectation to be transformed
You saved me from sure suffocation
Temperatures rise from the mechanism of your warmth

And now I'm toast
I'm fucking crispy baby
Your burnt toast
Now I'm toast
I'm fucking crispy baby
Your burnt toast

Maintain this embrace a moment longer
I'd stay forever but don't want to burn
Explain how your grace has made me stronger
Should go but hey I'll stay it's a lesson I'll never learn

You can get it if you wanna
A little honey you can spread
Peanut butter if ya wanna
Oh we can jam

And now I'm toast
I'm fucking crispy baby
Your burnt toast
And now I'm toast
I'm fucking crispy baby
Your burnt toast
Now I'm toast
Your burnt toast
Now I'm toast
Your burnt toast

Toast

When you know the sun is supposed to rise but the darkness feels so heavy while you're in it.
Keep eyes for the glimmers of hope in those times, to remind us light will come.
---
I can't wait
For the day you say will come
And I'll do my all to keep that day moving on
And I can't wait
But you say that it's coming soon
I wanna feel that sunrise
But all I see's reflections of the moon

Happiness is not a destination
It's a journey, it's a story, it's a complex state of mind
It could find you blessed or barely breathing
But the path is paved in progress so the struggle is divine
And I can't

Eyes like windows but experiencing screens
Cut out some pinholes for a variance of beams
Balanced flamingo vegetarian of greens
We're just some minnows in aquariums of dreams
But I'll follow the clean stream queen

And I can't wait
For the day you say will come
And I do my all to keep that day moving on
And I can't wait
You say that it's coming soon
Wanna feel the sunrise
But all I see's reflections of the moon
Oh of the moon
All I see's reflections
Of
The
Moon

Can't Wait
