We can only push forward Progress out of danger,
no safety in fantasy, Im a liberator
My purpose is to help you get back to you
For those who have lost themselves searching for clues
To find what you’ve always had but haven’t known for a while
I wanna Inspire and enlighten with smiles
Heaven is real and hell is a mind-state
You can reach either one without a divine fate
your mind is a source of infinite energy
an ocean of potential and unlimited remedies
to any ailment or psychological torment
don’t let any of your powers lay dormant
love what you have, and if you cant afford it
you probably don’t need it, Fuck time, we need more of it.
But give it time and it will heal
That’s the deal, then all secrets will be revealed
Hopefully I can be a beacon of sanity
when reality feels like it has a different gravity
Ill be here to pull you back to earth
Or to point you in the right direction while your on your search
For whatever it is you might be looking for
support you through the doors cuz that’s what friends are for
Sometimes you gotta embrace the chaos
Roll with the punches and let it flow till it pays off
But if your stuck, only you can up out the muck
Shouts to all you badass cats who are down as fuck
And quit trippin off insignificant games
Theres much more to life you gotta see the bigger frame
Its all perspective, don’t be afraid of what you hear
Disinformation makes us hate what we fear
And if you didn’t know, you all have a soul
Fuck your destiny, cause your in control
If your struggling keep your head above water
You have the strength for freedom just push a lil harder
Just don’t lose sight of the Essentials
Don’t let materials become sentimental s
For the lost souls who feel they dont' belong anywhere
Open up a lil bit trust allies are everywhere
Transcend barriers of race, sex and class
Live in the now don’t worry about the past
Follow synchronicity's, acknowledge possibilities
Your guided by the ones who help the best of your abilities
For my brother, well reunite again
PLEASE take care of the family, love is what I send
From baseball to biking to rocking many stages
Its natural for growth to go through many phases
So Put down your phone, turn off your computer
Go outside praise the sun live is pretty super
From the universe to my soul \To the thoughts in my head
To my fingers on the keyboard\ To the ink in my pen
To my voice to the mic, to a download or a cd
To your ears, to a video or show where you can see me
To the stages ive rocked and the mics that Ive shared
To the people Ive met, to all those who cared
About me and my art, from the big to the small
To those I care about who don’t care about me at all
Its cuz of you I do what I do/ And I do what I do cuz of you/ thank you
from the bottom of my heart Im forever grateful
For supporting me through this journey, Even if your hateful
Its cuz of you I do what I do/ And I do what I do cuz of you/ thank you
from the bottom of my soul, your all my friends
and even if you’re not, you’ve had a purpose in my life, the end
