Tell Me a Tale

Plane dropped on the ground
From the north side of the sea
It rose, and like a bird, it flew
Soaring, wings spread out

Impossible I know, but mama
I just might be flying
Rising with the winds
Open the windows, and it’s all blue
I’m high, so high

Plane dropped on the ground
From the north side of the sea
It rose, and like a bird, it flew
Soaring, wings spread out

Impossible I know, but mama
I’m with the clouds
So rest those wary shoulders
And sing along with this tale I’m about to tell

Free Loose

The phases of our lives dances
Like a mad man on juice
Jiving, rocking legs like no other
Certified insane
Freedom without bounds
The power to call forth
Your name without the need of receipts

Forever Floating

Resting on the wings of clouds
No dust, just eternal flows
Chilling, my mind’s renewed
Souls remaining, beings rejoicing
Choir singing, connecting
With all that remain
It’s called heaven for a reason
Down below, the stress excruciating
For a moment, close eyes and relieve
Create your moment of peace
Away from the world of pain
For a second close eyes and believe
Down below, the stress excruciating
Envision, take a dose of quiescence
Paint your mind with your own
Choose to call it whatever
But in it remain even for a moment
Enjoy the place where
Souls float, and stress is nowhere

I Mind

Show me your fears
I mind the troubles
As I fumble
Through your waves
It’s clear, it’s hazy
Roaring, you’re breaking
Disconnecting from the world
Disenchanting, your fairy tale is over
Crack a bone, and feel the pain
A lick will do
Right on the naval base
Frequency acquired
Currency entitled
Evenly so tender
We’re peaking
Tickling with our hands
Down, up
We’re working our bodies
Making a feast
Riding with the pace
Slowly it’s dissolving
Our hearts, burning
Into a melt down
Forcing, entering
I’m diluting your mind
With my sweet sweet tongue
So show me your hands
And I’ll give you a good long bite

Nocturnal Souls

Girl sitting alone eating her lunch
No friends to laugh about the misery
She says she’s content
Girl sitting with a book in hand
Words to her eyes
Letters full with fantasy
No body to relate with
No lover to quench the burning desire
Still she says she’s content
That’s all she needs, herself
Alone with her thoughts
Submerged in a merry-go-round time

Suddenly, it’s destroyed
Suddenly, her moment of seclusion is gone
The boy sitting with himself, sees her
And all dreams becomes reality
Through the tunnel
Their moment arrives

The girl sitting eating lunch
The boy smiling holding her hands
Alone together
Suddenly, so suddenly
It’s two
Two made whole
Two to share the burden of life

Promised Land

For seasons, days and nights
They walked through the desert
With heat killing heart
Kings with plants and dust as clothes
Clouds high above
With a vessel leading the way
Their hope was to arrive
But along the way
Some lost their eyes
Pursuing the ways of gold
Others left with a head
Snatched away to a distant road
One filled with vengeful snakes
Where the beast of the sand roamed
Despair, confusing all around
The vessel seeing all
Left the people
To seek guidance
Generations passed still no sight
So the people made names and called things life
Blood spilling, sibling killing
The truth became a fable
Hundreds and more moons past
And the darkened had seen enough
With heaviness on back they dropped their bags
And laid on the ground
Hoping to find sleep
In the desert flowing with milk
They rest, we rest
Waiting foolishly for the vessel to return
Forgetting the vessel had become a gift
As we breathe, we excel
We must remember the dust that our fathers wore
And mothers sang about
Wake up! Sleeping sons of Jacob
Awaken the giant in you
The spirit destined for greatness
Leave the bitter twisted books
And walk back onto to the land of promise

The Mighty Ones

Back and forth
Side to side
The force is pushed around
From the hands of wealth
To the fore bearer of soul
Though the mighty have little
The little is in the making
Every build, every mold
Makes the journey bearable

As the moon dapples
The wind throws away its weight
And the people smile
With the coolness
They ride through the night
Some on trains,
Others in hearts
Shaking, moving
Orchestrating their paths with a wand and a voice
As their faces all glitter in this rhythmic night
They celebrate, jubilating
Beautiful steps they make, but hauntingly ever so warm

Nothing Can Stop You

Standing amongst the crowd
Distinguish yourself from the rest
Vibe and free your spirit
Hang up the bad talking
Naysayers lay waiting
For you to fall
Though they forget
Nothing can stop you from elevating to the skies

The world goes crumbling
But you go climbing
Time to make time
Cos karma lays awaiting
For you to grab
So kill it
Believe it
Cos nothing in this world
Can negate the good in you
Nothing in this fake world
Can shift the ground you stand on you
Believe it
Sing it
Nothing can stop you
You, yes you

Langa la la soul (Chants of the Voice)

sitting duck
sitting duck

Victorious, so we dream
In the shades of day
On the quest to remember
Hoping to acquire sense
Ridding the distaste from our tongues
Dictating the walk of our lives
We must turn the clock back
And see our demise
To propel, we must learn from the book
The survival guide that holds the message
No matter how much you vex
A tale has already been written in those lines

We have travelled for so long
The feet is tired, our throats are thirsty
Why? Because
We have already arrived
To the land of long term mentality

Afro Blue

It seems like when the wind falls
The ground collides
Meshing together to form a sequence
But it’s all a dream
When paths cross
Like eternity we seem to forget our past
In our time, we thirst for a touch
Gathering moments, sparkles they are
Faces full of smiles, forming a crying gong
Two hoping to connect
Relieving their life before the end
These two go on
Through the phases with a hold
They overcome and fight
Breaking their limbs
Crawling when hearts shatter
To pieces on ground
Guess our ways are the same
Too alike, but needed
In transgressions we’ll find redemption
