There were something called feelings in the way that I thought
There was something like shady dealings with plans of getting caught
I thought I'd open up my mind into the way that this went on
And then relate it...to another on this train we all get on
But was it once, or was it twice that I'd pondered and considered?
In what what we know as life, this flower fell down withered
...Painting pictures daily, getting up from falling down
It was upon this time I saw that its not permanently around...
Nose to the grindstone, the collective human down
The outward "smile"...but the inward frown
What I wondered, what I uttered, had I thought it had mattered?
...When spewing on the mattress...waking from a dream
Was when I realized our bond with earth had broken at the seam
I thought..."The sun, is it fading? On the faces of us praying?"...
For I'm not known to you...And I'm not known to me
Is what I articulated...When I saw that moment be
It was then of course…It was - then - of course
...that I could see...
Playing with future lives is what I'd be dealt as a hand
Take it to the next level, the stake is what's at stand
Oh, was that in demand? The life sifted like sand?
And will it be televised..."you know...is it in the plan?"
Another moment…now…but fleeting…wow, what's this that's got us beating?
It was a twisted path made straight, but not right now...a future date
A friendly fate, a brand new slate, I do hope you participate
In what we know as oneness, an eternal peaceful state…so…
Vibrate together yeah
Vibrate together yeah
Vibrate together yeah
Vibrate together yeah
So yes we took it back from their wide controlling grasp
And life was made so different when I saw that moment pass
We did it all together, we made our life here so much better
That's what we knew at once, those prior days were lonely pleasure
For some time we fought each other as mere pawns within their game
But then we later realized, that yes, deep down…we're all the same
It was erased from sight and mind that former experience blind
Bending through time - that was our way to bind
The way its been, the way things were have woken up and gone when stirred
From deeply destructive ways leading us close to the fray; blurred
The brink from where I see it...was a lonely latent past
And it was here from where things were, we said "something must be done fast!"
Deleting the delays that had prevented us from the start
And with my heart I'd know I want this moment to never ever part
Realization of the outcome echoed forever in my head
It was a growing dream which screamed out "Hey! - You! - I must be fed!"…so…
Vibrate together yeah
Vibrate together yeah
Vibrate together yeah
Vibrate together yeah
And so…the dream, it grew, evolving, starting something new
It found the life inside us…and so the dream it flew
Outside our souls & hearts to uplift global consciousness
To raise our love forever and shut out the monstrousness
Our goodness, hiding in shadow, smothered by the system
Can now shine in true beauty, our angels we had missed them
So we pondered - the difference between life and mere existence
It was brewing undercover, it all lead up to this resistance
To the words dictated...disseminated
Not for greater good, but for control, this gem of hatred
Filth perpetuated, corrupted morals have now abated
I woke up too, so did you, and it was as clear as day
We knew that what we found was a much more better, newer way
A better newer way for a better newer day
A better newer way for a better newer day
A better newer way for a better newer day…so…
Vibrate together yeah
Vibrate together yeah
Vibrate together yeah
Vibrate together yeah

Music drives me, it really moves me
From being trapped in the pain so gloomy
Its kinda like finding the perfect roomie
Someone to share something with so truly
I pump it loud when I wanna get energy
Listening intently like it was just meant fa me
Or slow and soft when I'm depressed mentally
A sonic map with a guide marked gently
Killing my doubt, feeling happy again
This rekindled love for a long lost friend
Dancing for tha sun we're all feeling as one
It's something I discovered when I was quite young
I wanted to rock out to tha beat from any drum
Melodies and harmonies they add to the fun
The bass hits your soul such a feeling untold
Making me rock out till the day I'm old
So dance…bounce back from a problem so hard
Keep your head up...go the long yard
Deep in your mind and soul you'll feel
A nagging something; helping you deal
Got a plagued conscience? Forget about that!
In life music helps to right the wrong track
You might hate things and you might feel pain,
Yet just know that you will be happy again
The lights, the beat, your feet, the stage
The people you meet doesn't matter the age
The sound progresses and complicates
Euphoric music nothing else satiates
So this one goes for the dancefloor...
All you people out there, you know you want more
Lights bouncing off you, gonna meet someone new
Dancing before you, right there in clear view
So come dance if you wanna get down
We're lookin round for somethin new found
That old stance was such a let down
So let the sun shine down on you again
Almost every culture i admire
Knew how to make drums an how to make fire
But beyond that they that knew combining the two
Was somethin life required
To appreciate the seasons
And contemplate the reasons
That we exist, the how and the why
We danced for it all, we danced with life
But dancin for tha sun
And everything under it in wonderment
Is a far cry from the bar I
Often wonder where all the wonder went
Cuz now we crowd around tv screens
Watchin beyonce it seems
That we think dancin is all about
Production value and sellin out
Then shellin out to pay for the liquor
It's not just the liver, the heart gets sicker
When we only dance if we're drunk enough
Or otherwise spaced out and twisted up
Cuz dancin is only embarrassin
When we're pounded with comparisons
Of music video americans
In their underwear wearin plastic grins
So we gotta learn how to dance again
Ready set let go of the trance we're in
The sun will teach you to move again
Just let the rhythm and the kick sink in
And always remember the earth's your mother
And that she made you to move like no other
In concert with your sisters and your brothers
There's a whole world we can rediscover
So come dance if you wanna get down
We're lookin round for somethin new found
That old stance was such a let down
So let the sun shine down on you again
We're infinite love, the highest possibility
I pray you understand? Or are you not feelin me
All else is manipulated illusion
Calculated coldly, spreading our confusion
Dancin for tha sun...vibrating energy
Waiting for the music to raise me as it enters me
Unique expressions of all that exists
Don't believe me?, well then there's something you've missed
We miss the fact that music is powerful
For every good minute there's an hour full
Of dark messages that waste away
One more chance to embrace the way
That we could be
If we dropped their sick beats
We could set our hearts
And our spirits free
Free your mind of doubts and limitations
Open up to everything…new initiations
Follow intuition at its basic root
Stop using your mind cos it just computes
We're rappin from the heart , pure and strong
With a message clear…it is…WE ALL BELONG
We gotta reconnect from our disconnection
Get back to the earth, no more misdirection
We have to feel something we can't think
And once you taste it just drink
From the freedom that comes with
Lettin go of all this civilized shit
Start to figure out who you really are...
The offspring of our closest star
Come join in with everyone
That's on this earth dancin for tha sun
So come dance if you wanna get down
We're lookin round for somethin new found
That old stance was such a let down
So let the sun shine down on you again

Could you agree?...stand in front with me
Open your eyes to see, another world could be...clearly
And it is coming, yes the time is near, hey will you really fear?
...Another day has turned into a year
But it's held back with the lies so strong, hey y'all it is so wrong
How we crazily think we don't belong
We overcome and we'll become one
And so much more to come, to see what else there is that can be done
We make it better when we talk about
These only things we doubt, why can't we exercise and walk it out?
Only alone when we can't hear cries
Where are our open minds? Shrouded by superficial alibi's
The thing that matters most...this earth our host
The mother we kill when we're blind to see we can't love when our heart is closed
Hey I'm a hypocrite, but aren't we all, we gotta stand up tall
To look above this shit, our sky must fall
Change only happens when we put aside, the sickened lurings of what can only be described as the dark side
Humanity, can it be? wandering down a path that leads us all straight to insanity
A mental patient, i don't plan to be, doomed and screaming forever locked in this room of profanity
I'm not the owner of the truth...but am I right?
It's because I can see that we can overcome this plight!
But held in 5 senses how can we know?,
Because we aint been shown, the way that our spirit can overthrow
Our bondage held by society
And others who don't know the 3rd eye is much stronger than the mind, you see
Cos those that wake up are much greater than,
The one's behind the scenes, orchestrating crazy, evil, master plans
We're so much more than they'll ever know
Because we dare to grow the goodness inside each and every seed to sew!

I wanna show you something...
Deep in my mind there is only one thing!
Cos of the sunshine you bring...
I can cast out my fears and focus on living
Not now but far from here...
In a time where people aren't controlled by fear
Where the future's bright and we all can hear!
The force from a mountaintop...floating clear...
Teaching us...how to live in peace
To understand one another, not evil deeds
To pick out the good once we sort through the weeds
And cut out the bad roots from the fallen trees
So they never, ever, rise again
And we can call all the people of the world our friend
No-one blinded by hatred, money or greed
And we supplant the self with the greater need
So can you feel it too or is it only me
Don't close your eyes but open them to believe
This paradigm shift is starting pretty soon
So just board the ship until there is no room
That is...not room for blinding hate
Destroying us so that we can't relate
Because we are all one...we share the same fate
Just board it now before it is too late!
And then I'll take you - to a different place
Where there's no hidden feelings on a truthful face
With an openness not seen since the change of pace
When our lives were manipulated by the rat-race
But - that's - all- forgotten - now
Inertia-filled days, emotions crushed, with money-ploughs
No hidden agenda, not void of heart
Where the hidden hand drowned in the seas that part
And we were no longer doomed to fail from the start
With a fresh beginning we rediscovered the art
Of looking out for one another, not a corporate machine
In the old days they waved it off as a dream
When we ripped the fabric we destroyed the seems
And removed the one causing tortured screams
That particular one, full of empty false promise
And it only worked when we took advantage of solace
So can you feel it too or is it only me?
Don't close your eyes but open them to believe
This paradigm shift is starting pretty soon
So just board the ship until there is no room
That is...not room for blinding hate
Destroying us so that we can't relate
Because we are all one...we share the same fate
Just board it now before it is too late!
So I'll unveil the ending...
Mixed ideals in a rich soup blending
Tolerance, compassion growing seeds...
...Of love in one another, helping those in need
Bolstering opinions warning those who heed...
We'll never pull through if we leave mouths to feed
To the human race, I've gotta give you more faith
Don't let it waiver now...when I have to wait
For a change to come...from fuck knows where?
Ascending from the wreckage and depths of despair
Once the machine breaks down...the systems gone!
We'll respect all on this planet we're on
But what does it take? What does it take?
To undo all of these mistakes we make?
I'll tell you what - we realise we're all one
And only then can we live in peace under the sun!
So can you feel it too or is it only me?
Don't close your eyes but open them to believe
This paradigm shift is starting pretty soon
So just board the ship until there is no room
That is...not room for blinding hate
Destroying us so that we can't relate
Because we are all one...we share the same fate
Just board it now before it is too late!

Fuck...you know the well goes deep!
But do you dare open your eyes to peep?
At what goes on...god only knows…?!?!
The spider sits and waits in dark shadows
Fuck…the craziest of evil!
Inhabits some of the crazy people
Taking a life, not questioning
Yet foolishly God's praise they sing
They shot the man down
2 shots..then fade to the background
In the midst of terror...
Child soldier pumped with rage and propaganda
Counterfeiting lies cos bullshit pays
With a bullshit lawyer…getting a raise
…Weekly checks put the mind at rest
Smile when the diamonds swing from necks
Cos shit's controlled through the many pawns
Making the calmest weather storms
Watch out for disinfo, brainwashing
Conforming views make the same old thing
And we don't need another billionaire
Cos it'll do nothing for the world, ya hear
But the chasers of money don't really care!
They want more power, that aint fair
Look but don't touch, taste but don't swallow
Fuck the dream world, that's my motto
Come with the darkness, lose control
Free yourself but don't lose your soul
On a mission
Take a look at yourself and ask this question...
What's the cause of life if it means nothing…aint no point or reason
It's all for the takin', give me the bacon!
These big boys are too big now
They're power-tripping hungry cows
Dollar by dollar; the world's fucked over
Bother and squalor; all that gets passed over
They sit pretty owning means of production
But all this merely feeds is corruption
For their own greed, which they feel is a need
Taking advantage, sewing negative seeds
Giving grace for the leftovers
… ask for more (dear Lord)
Got Jehovah's banging on my door
Spreading war in all corners of the globe
Profit on murder, oil and gold
Those who've sinned face death or more
Repeated history of the rise and fall
Don't really care, bout way up there…
Let's cause an interruption...
To this warped idea of mild assumptions
Caught in the system no choice is there
It's just so sick that they just don't care
Share your wealth, don't feed your beast of power
Help those without - to grow up and flower
Cos they're just like you, and if you only knew
That you're only doomed when you're the evil few
Behold…pray for mercy
Step to the plate if you think you're worthy
Running down villains, bloodthirsty
Committing for change, not money hungry
Trying to escape this Babylon's game
Break the chains of systematic rape
I'm talking about freedom, not getting laid
Gotta stay strong all the way to the end!

The bugs have always played but now they play with bigger stings
The game has gotten harder now, they're onto bigger things
They come to me at times when I feel I shouldn't need them
But they persist with cunning ways that always make me heed them
They tell me things I can't shut out, they tell me constantly
They tell me to grow into something I don't want-to-be
They scream and shout and taunt and then they make me doubt myself
They cloud out worth of self and I just can't see my own wealth
Well - oh - how - they - play
And - the - things - they - say
Yet - in - my - mind - they - stay
When - I - want - them - to - go - away
Just when I find myself again and I think that all is right
They come to me at the worst times when I'm alone at night
Or when confusion mounts, they like to visit me there
But I'm sick from them inside my head playing with my despair
I fight them with the brightness, they don't like it that much
But when the darkness comes again, they like to stay in touch
Will I rid them from my thoughts, or will they be forever
I can overcome them, if their food supply I sever
Well - oh - how - they - play
And - the - things - they - say
Yet - in - my - mind - they - stay
When - I - want - them - to - go - away
But I don't know what's behind this face of mine anymore
I don't even know myself which side I'm on in this war
If I can't find myself and work out how to kill this plague
I can't live fully once again instead of life so vague
So I cut them out, but they come back, they're like a cancer strange
They make my dealings with others just fall right out of range
But I'll conquer them, i'll conquer them I'll fucking rip them out
They'll fade into nothingness and they'll take with them my doubt
Well - oh - how - they - play
And - the - things - they - say
Yet - in - my - mind - they - stay
When - I - want - them - to - go - away

Would you go through life just to live without me?
Even if you did imagine how our life would be...
How can I exist when you cloud my thoughts day and night?
And can I live just to be your hopes in spite?
Though the answer calls to beckon me how
But the time for me should come right now
I'm a different guy that much is clear
Yet my certainty, my intentions are here
So this is why, this is how, I'm so confused
Would it matter? Would you care? Could you be enthused?
And though the time draws near, yes the lights gone out!
Will you help me, guide me, stick this one out?
And though the candle burns is it still the same?
A life can be some sick cruel game!
But could you lead me to my destiny?
This journey's for hope and this journey's for me...
So can you see through a heart? Can you touch with your eyes?
Will you kill this facade? this awful disguise!
Isolating thoughts, pondering deep in my mind
Would you wake me up, could you loosen this bind?
Though the answer calls to beckon me how
But the time for me should come right now
I'm a different guy that much is clear
Yet my certainty, my intentions are here
And though the candle burns is it still the same?
A life can be some sick cruel game!
But could you lead me to my destiny?
This journey's for hope and this journey's for me...

I was pondering some things inside of my head
Wondering 'bout different people, some alive and some dead
About the difference they made, about the lives that they lead
About how they spoke out and got a price on their head
It was a thought…revealing, not ignorance, concealing
I see a future with those that just keep on stealing...
From our mother earth, they take from her for all she's worth
Caring not she gave them birth, they shrug their shoulders full of mirth
So they think that they have won?, but for me it's just begun!
To topple them from power, yes it is their final hour!
This clutch on us…control, i think it's come to way to much
Our feelings, they get shrouded with the loss of human touch
Cos without hope we are dead, our lifeless eyes, show life once lead
And beaten down by systems, corruption, power and all the rest
We're specialized, confused and writing lines for our own death
Unless we think about the good to do…it is alive in me and you
So hands up if you find no meaning
In this current life we're leading
It's like just don't wanna believe in
That we have to be zombies dreaming
So...don't follow me, join me as an equal
Be part of the start, not the sequel
Outta the headspace, into the heartspace
Outta the deadspace, abolish the armsrace
Fuck the mainstream with a passion
Fuck the following of fashion
Fuck what you've been told
And when I say FUCK, the lettering's BOLD
Fuck the mainstream with a passion
Fuck the following of fashion
Fuck what you've been told
And when I say FUCK, the lettering's BOLD
We need positive action, Increasing love with permanent traction
To feel this force well up for good...compels me to do all I should
To re-align, not be malign...And heed our mother's warning sign
A better thing awaits us, but we're blinded by false trust...
Yes, a crystal ball of hope is what it's come to for many
Perpetuating acts which I don't seem to see as friendly
For me, or you or anyone that lives below the sun
I hope my flames ignite some thought, i'm not the only one!
Cos we're locked in a box with our mind today
But I wanna get out and find a way
History repeats, or so some say
But i'll keep my hope for another day
Become globally conscious, not globally monstrous
Boycott all of their bullshit and that's including their sponsors
Subsidiary companies, unseen hand and the like
And we can fucking do this a big worldwide strike
Slam the door in their face, make sure they never come back
And damn well keep it that way; as long as its morals they lack
So hands up if you find no meaning
In this current life we're leading
It's like just don't wanna believe in
That we have to be zombies dreaming
So...don't follow me, join me as an equal
Be part of the start, not the sequel
Outta the headspace, into the heartspace
Outta the deadspace, abolish the armsrace
Fuck the mainstream with a passion
Fuck the following of fashion
Fuck what you've been told
And when I say FUCK, the lettering's BOLD
Fuck the mainstream with a passion
Fuck the following of fashion
Fuck what you've been told
And when I say FUCK, the lettering's BOLD
So as the rest of the system slides off the face of the earth
We'll watch it bloom and then grow from the days of first birth
Lets take pride in the new and say bye-bye to the old
Yes, In the palm the root grew yes its the future we hold
Cos If everything no longer growing is already dead
Then why do we swallow this bullshit and keep nodding our head?
The culture's run away, replaced with watered down shit
I want to stand against it, but I just get told to sit
But my spirit won't be broken it can fight another day...
And I won't give up my quest to help us find another way!
The current model isn't working so it needs to be changed!
We made this beast, lets tame it, make it fair once rearranged
There's no reason for hunger, there's no reason for wars
There's no reason for us to submit and become their little whores
There's no reason for inequality, there's no reason for genocide
There's no reasoning some find so they resort to suicide
But I find plenty of reasons for us to change the system now
...And I'm sure that most agree but find it hard when faced with how!?!?!
So hands up if you find no meaning
In this current life we're leading
It's like just don't wanna believe in
That we have to be zombies dreaming
So...don't follow me, join me as an equal
Be part of the start, not the sequel
Outta the headspace, into the heartspace
Outta the deadspace, abolish the armsrace
Fuck the mainstream with a passion
Fuck the following of fashion
Fuck what you've been told
And when I say FUCK, the lettering's BOLD
Fuck the mainstream with a passion
Fuck the following of fashion
Fuck what you've been told
And when I say FUCK, the lettering's BOLD

Yesterday I couldn't keep my head up
Stayed in my bedroom, kept the bedroom door shut
Disgrace, disgrace it was written on my face
But I couldn't leave my room-cocoon, I didn't know my place
I lost control...over-indulged, no-one could tell me nothing
Wandering off on my own absorbed in only one thing
To see how much I could ingest, to set me on a path
No reasoning, no logic, no thought of aftermath
Rack another, pop another...feels good doesn't it?
Smoke it up, drink it down, just get another hit
Soaking in the bliss, provided by this
On my way to the higher plane of where to exist
Chasing that feeling...i'm quite ok with dealing
With an altered state of mind...with me that's just fine
A nice kind of reality, i'm here, but what else could it be?
A temporary vacation from this life is my vocation
But this ride that is my life, up, down, up, down
It never really stops, my feet they never touch the ground
But it does slow down at times, when I want it to speed up
When the path I tread is fucked, I wander off, myself beat up
Rack another, pop another...feels good doesn't it?
Smoke it up, drink it down, just get another hit
Soaking in the bliss, provided by this
On my way to the higher plane of where to exist
But sleeping's not a hobby, i've gotta wake up fast
I can't allow the present here to dominate my past
I pour out my mind, but...can I catch it?
These marks are my memories the deepest of scratches
Cos i'm too-analytical… too - highly - critical
But learning from life should be something so spiritual
But this ride that is my life, up, down, up, down
It never really stops, my feet they never touch the ground
Rack another, pop another...feels good doesn't it?
Smoke it up, drink it down, just get another hit
Soaking in the bliss, provided by this
On my way to the higher plane of where to exist

I wake up from a dream and life materialises
I see my world a cracked mirror through 2 cold steely irises
I feel my achy-braky-heart kinda like Billy-Ray Cyrus's
And wonder if the world can overcome its many current crises's
But thinking what the hell can I do? In what way can I help?
Should I sit alone here thinking, leave my ideas up on the shelf?
I want to be someone to promote a better world vision
But I see those shut off at the brain influenced by television...
Or caught up in their lives, debts, death, work and all the rest
We're specialised, confused and otherwise occupied till death
I want to search across the world and find a common unique thread
Don't want to see it ravished by wars, imperialists and dread
I'm not the only one that feels this way...that much is true
But publishing my thoughts like this may help others to do
What I can't ever do by myself without us all to help ourselves
I'm not holier than thou, or correct, but I merely want to help
Feeling frustrated at times, helpless, watching the way that things are going
Will you unite with me and can we achieve a goal worth doing
Lets wade through waters deep, and confront problems at the helm
And push this earth and world into a much more safer, righteous realm
Why aren't we taught conflict resolution at school?
Why do we become a one-trick-tool?
Why aren't we taught to embrace and respect instead of all their rules?
Why can't we just rise up cos we will never be their fools...
Why aren't we taught conflict resolution at school?
Why do we become a one-trick-tool?
Why aren't we taught to embrace and respect instead of all their rules?
Why can't we just rise up cos we will never be their fools...
So let me just repeat myself, I've left it up to all of us
And look inside yourself, and realise that you can trust
Possibly everybody else, if we all want the same outcome
We need you and your help, and we'll unite and we'll become
Something worth living for; a world we all can just adore
But if my words do not sink in, I feel i've burdened you with bore
The problem looks insurmountable when looked at from a distance
But up close and seen much finer we can see the realest substance
The world is crying, see it dying, tears have now evaporated
But all we see is leaders lying, our fears are trapped in hatred
Why aren't we taught conflict resolution at school?
Why do we become a one-trick-tool?
Why aren't we taught to embrace and respect instead of all their rules?
Why can't we just rise up cos we will never be their fools...
Why aren't we taught conflict resolution at school?
Why do we become a one-trick-tool?
Why aren't we taught to embrace and respect instead of all their rules?
Why can't we just rise up cos we will never be their fools...
