Huffington Post 2015-02-16Taproot is a four-piece rock group from Ann Arbor, Michigan. They are most known for their hit single "Poem" (#5 most played rock track in 2002), as well as a number of other singles from 2000 to the present.
Back in the mid 90's, a band called Cymonic Drive featured Dan (now in the band Madhops)[citation needed] on bass and Dennis AKA D-hauz (now ex-20 Dead Flower Children)[citation needed] on vocals. While another band called Skumbag[citation needed] featured Steve (now of Taproot) on drums and Mike (now of Taproot) on guitar. One day these bands played a gig together and they both took an interest in each others' band. After a few conversations, the 4 members dissolved their current bands and got together to form the first incarnation of a band we now know as Taproot. The line-up then featured D-hauz on vocals, Mike on guitar, Dan on bass and Steve on drums.
I am seeing tunnel vision in a world thats dark and cold,
I cannot believe how much I've changed since the days of old,
I know it's temporary but I need to focus straight,
I cannot believe I lost control of my fate,
I need forgiveness from the people I truely care about,
I need support behind my back to help me spit it out I am gonna win,
I can't afford to blow this one,
I hate myself sometimes,
I love myself,
I need this way of life because it holds me.
contradictions the way of life happiness is wealthyness is healthy
now I've made it through those lies and deceit,
I think whats done is done and I can't complain anymore i am sure,
now that I've found myself again it feels great I can't believe
Standing on a land unknown interpreting the same
Believing in a chance of hope and see it slowly fade
It's breaking far away replacing what I'm made of
Looking for a way to show that I'm
Searching for a faith who knows that I'm
Screaming for a place to go, 'cause I'm drowning in the violent seas
of being force fed societies
Shallow end of misery please take me away 'cause I can't
Stay looking for a way to show that i'm okay
Screaming for a place like home
Treading in the fears I own of ending up ashamed
While cornered in this life and prone
By overbearing waves
That steal what I have saved replacing what I gave up
Oh Yeah it's time to get gorgoling
here we go!
Whenever I go to sleep I close my eyes
so I can feel my heart beating
Be quit shut up!! now or I'll have to yell in your ear.
Heare me sabotage because I'm not formiltar no 5x
Soul fire
soul fire
and we have no water
Whenever I breathe in air I get that ohh ahh feel
It's time for eating time for gorgoling
Here me sabotage beacause I,m not formiltar no 6x
Can't seem to find myself in the smoke filled room again
The lesson of being bored and naïve so I've been told
Its just my own problem
That I succumb from the bottom
Looking up at the reflection above of those below
Yea well I know, there’s no point in rushing
I'll get my change when
The time is right
I'll get mine
in no time
I want to shine
With you by my side
When is how…
I hide away
I push myself on everyday
The lesson in time will be the mystery
Lost in this missing things
By doing things created
Looking up at the reflection above of those below
Yea well I know, there’s no point in rushing
I'll get my change when
The time is right
I'll get mine
in no time
I want to shine
With you by my side
Now and then
Then is now
Now and then
Then is now
Now for when
When is now I know
The time is right
I'll get mine
in no time
I want to shine
Your face is burned inside my brain
I lost my way
Your taste of stale flows through my veins
The cost of hate
'Cause you'll never understand me
You want me to stay
You're c-c-c-calling but I can't hear you
I'm not listening anymore
You're subject to falling but I can't save you
I don't see you anymore
The race of slowing down the pain, I found a way
The pace of speaking so mundane, the sound of gain
But you'll never make me happy
So I've extinguished the flame
You're c-c-c-calling, but I cant hear you
I'm not listening anymore
You're subject to falling, but I can't save you
I don't see you anymore
And what you want me to say I'll never say
You're playing the game that I'll never play
So what do you want from me?
Now I've extinguished the flame
Your c-c-c-calling but I can't hear you
I'm not listening anymore
You're subject to falling but I can't save you
I don't see you anymore
You're c-c-c-calling but I can't hear you,
I'm not listening anymore
You're f-f-f-falling, but I can't save you
Jealousy is raining down on me right now
As the fear of losing you is setting in
But ill continue to do my best
Although its scary
Wondering if this will be the very first time to lose
And not to win
And I've got no backup plan
But I’m… not a quitter
I'm not a quitter
I’m trying to scream but I can’t breathe…
Can anybody hear me?
I’m trying to dream but I can’t sleep…
Can anyone shield me?
I shut my eyes and hold my cries to myself
My pride’s in the shitter
But I…
Won't quit, never quit
Confidence is coming back to me right now
As the strength to earning you is coming to
Cause I’ve continued to do my best
Although it was scary wondering if this would be my very first time to win
And not to lose
Cause I’ve had no backup plan
But I’m…Not a quitter
I'm not a quitter
I’m trying to scream but I can’t breathe…
Can anybody hear me?
I’m trying to dream but I can’t sleep…
Can anyone shield me?
I shut my eyes and hold my cries to myself
My pride’s in the shitter
But I…
Won't quit, never quit
Confidence is coming back to me right now
As the fear of losing you is setting in
But ill continue to do my best
Although its scary
Wondering if this could be my very first time to win
life sucks sometimes, friendships turn to lies,
a hatred in disguise it brings tears to my eyes,
i can see the truth from the neutral side in my mind,
confusion cripples me unto my element of control unsureness.
emotional times i'm just fine.
trauma's etched in my mind, i can see 'em all the time,
i've seen my share of pain and suffering,
i am just fine, respecting something more than nothing all the time,
and it's time, to move on. i have seen my faith sailing away,
and i have seen my faith's coming back to me, i can see it,
coming back to me,
i can see it, i can taste it,
I've been so weak
that I've been sick
Distence from all around me
Then will see the sun
We will disapoint you when we fall down
We don't understand when I'm telling you
Things will be the same
You should grab my hand when your falling away
This punishment you will remember the time
Then you'll let go you and me are through
With each other again
Your so greatful your so playful but I can't
find all I can find
You'll see the sun
we will disapoint you when I fall down
you don't understand when I'm explaning
I guess we know it all and I guess will never be the same
You might need my hand when I'm falling away
This punishment you will remember when I'm going away.
Because you and me are through with each other again.
you and me are through with each other again
your not nice to me where am I?
Your making lies or unless your cryin'
You belive in me unless your dyin
cryin' on me you belive in me because
I'm cryin' cryin' cryin on me
I don't think that nobody is nice
I don't think that nobody is nice like me
You ruined everything you kept hittin' me
It's over and I will never be nice
Just hit me
You'll get it Filter
I've been waiting for you
To show your face as a clue
Living disgrace my eyes are burnt and my ears are tired of all these screams
So I run the truth is falling you're the one sent to kill me
Several days in a mood
Since there's no way to elude
What can I say my skin's a lie and my heart is broke from all these lies why
So I run the truth is falling you're the one sent to kill me
Grown up an only child
One parent home
I was spoiled and doubted not trusted
Neglected by others around
You saved…
You saved me
You were the only one there for me
Loved me
Dearly treated and supported me right through the thick and the thin
You saved…
You saved me
Look at me now
I hope you're proud
You're everything to me
Taught me to be myself
Showed independent help along through struggles made it work ourselves just a mother and child
You saved…
You saved me
Look at me now
I hope you're proud
You're everything to me
Look at me now
I hope you're proud
You're everything to me
you're everything
ill times rollin' lackin the flow ache in my throat and wisdom seems so lost,
and yet it's better in ways it's different,
i miss those oldschool meditations when relaxing
and getting visions was a given w/
my eyes closed i propose a toast, to myself to find the time to ask my lord
and galaxy to point me in the right direction,
i got my foot in the door,
i gotta keep on writin' and stay planted to this world,
be4 i can take off....
please come back to me i need to say goodbye to these old ways
stagnant lifestyle's no longer in my way, i gotta keep on movin',
so i pray, and wait for a sign from my guides, they help me proceed as i lay,
and dream of my future, i miss those times....
breakin' 'em off a piece of my wicked funky style up front str8 up, no hiding behind a facade conformed society's way masses try to fit in, sin after sinner up inner higher self discriminatin' against the ways others are livin' their live's but i's real different yes a unique open mind just fuckin' sittin' around here totally bored just waitin' for fate to let me conquer my goals, these helpless feelins' although they're not true, no verve is left inside of my soul, but tell me what can i do? forced to cope, just don't know, how to acheive, my goals...a life derived through inner strength, and the traits in the divine, strange perversity dominates, the spirit and the mind...
Confusing reality...
I see myself but it's not really me
How could it be?
When I am me?
I guess maybe it's just a dream
(Come on come on, come on wake up wake up)
Things aren't what they seem
(Come on come on, come on wake up wake up)
And people are fake too
I don't lie in dreams
I lye in my sleep
And I don't sleep to dream
Yet everything that I see is haunting
Bent truths controlling my world
I see the depths of it my toes curl
I feel so sick
I'm sick of this because I know I'm not asleep
(Come on come on, come on wake up wake up)
Things aren't what they seem
(Come on come on, come on wake up wake up)
And people are fake too
I don't lie in dreams
although
I lye in my sleep
And I don't sleep to dream
Yet everything that I see is haunting
I don't lie in dreams
although
I lye in my sleep
And I don't sleep to dream
Yet everything that I see is haunting
I don't lie in dreams!!!
(Come on come on, come on wake up wake up)
I am just a person like you, I am just a fuck-up that's true,
but your the only one I'll turn to by my side everyday
and night its time to climb out of this big black hole
even if i can justify that i am alive
and alright your still the one i'll turn to by my side so I cry alone,
I can't believe you drag me down again,
just when i think i'm fine i always then realize
She's standing by her lonesome
in this dead end empty space
the heavens cry upon her
and wash our sins away
we are gathered together
to say that we remember
if she could only know that
right now she's not alone
with you on her left
and me on her right
she guides us into the light
we are gathered together(her, you , and i today)
to say that we remember
we don't belong here
we are gathered together(her, you, and i today)
to say that we remember (last goodbye we say)
bury the sunset deep horizon
6 feet separate
but i wanna go and you wanna stay
just as a voice
we hear her say
It's 8am and her blood's still warm
the radio choke's out my favorite song
i hear sirens, they sing along...through the walls
my pulse is pumping to the beat outside
a violent screaming rise and shine
waves of helplessness reach to the sky...with heartbreak eyes
and as the walls around come crashing down
i ask myself how am i still around
it's easy
it's beautiful
it's simple
the everlasting Sunday glow
i won't let you in
don't push me away
I turn the music up a little more
trying to drown out what's in store
there's a battle raging right outside my door...it's all over
head downstairs
empty table
the tv glares
a criminal has been declared..beware
and as the walls around come crashing down
i ask myself how am i still around
it's easy
it's beautiful
it's simple
the everlasting Sunday glow
i won't let you in
time and time and time again
we seem to break before we bend
it's easy
it's beautiful
it's simple
the everlasting Sunday glow
i won't let you in
walking past a waiting grave
burial today
shadows cast a golden grey
preparations made
so calm
yet violent winds they play
such a darkness on a bright Sunday
Am I awake?
it feels strange
yet fascinating
like everything is gonna be okay
I feel so alive
but in this place I can't
help but thinking
that I'll end up here someday
onto Contemplations Way
ever long across the street unscathed
Am I awake?
it feels strange
yet fascinating
like everything is gonna be okay
I feel so alive
but in this place I can't
help but thinking
that I'll end up here someday
elevator take me high
14 stories
2nd door he lies
I found his body breathless
I found the place obscene
I tried to look away
as I tried to fee the scene
a picture staring back at me
left me wondering
Am I awake?
it feels strange
yet fascinating
like everything is gonna be okay
I feel so alive
but in this place I can't
help but thinking
on your feet
rush rush
to the street
rush
face defeat
as it no one makes it out alive, still try
flee the scene
hush hush
be discreet
hush
Go unseen unlike very breath you take
can be as the clerk said passing by
like a dream
such
nothing's what it seems
much
just deceit
as if time could stop your stride now free outside
to the beat
pump
skipping ever speed
bump
there's no leaves
but if the walls you left behind could talk they'd probably only cry
these are the days you cant forget
these are the times you can regret
this is your time for no surrender, surrender
this is your chance to do or die
this is your path so run or hide
this is your time for no surrender, surrender
like the breeze
rush rush
down the street
rush
to fast to freeze
as if no one makes your shadow as a lie
ware and peace
hush hush
still discreet
hush
mentally
like your train of thought implies
just one manifest the signs comply
like a dream
clutch
gripping memories
such
vividly
the sun'll settle east to the park where you'd reside
to the beat
touch
closing in on me
much
you can see
obvious now do or die
beneath you're fee to catch a ride
these are the days you cant forget
these are the times you can regret
this is your time for no surrender, surrender
this is your chance to do or die
this is your path so run or hide
this is your time for no surrender, surrender
deeper shade of sound
now unburied catalyst arriving
she reads eastern bound
like in movies you're now all aboarding
these are the days you cant forget
these are the times you can regret
Ascending from the depths, again
Among the living steps, again
Emerge into the day, again
Back to where you're safe, again
Sensing closer now
3 rocks to the 1
Underneath the clouds
2 blocks before the sun
It's a place
Lost but not forgotten
It's a place
Where you once belonged
It's place
Where you're loved
Arrival time now
One grand sight to see
An innocent symbol
Behind the row of trees
It's exactly has you remember it
The language are still laughing
If you missed that you could be a part of it
Has they swing the limbed
You missed the days they still have
Their mother s applause
Beautiful birds outside has they sing you a song
It's a place
Lost but not forgotten
It's a place
Where you once belonged
Its's place
Where you're loved
Memories of the good ol' Sundays way back when
Memories carving initials in the sand
Memories the countless time that you have spent
Memories a cherished gift given by a friend
Out of your pocket now
A necklace made of gold
See the picture in your hand
The story now unfolds
The son is now behind you
His likeness leaves no doubt
Place a hand upon your shoulder
With a whisper ringing out
sitting in motion the notion of pulling away
setting emotion's erosional ocean to keep you at bay
time is of the essence a presence to right what's wrong
knowledge crying lessons unpleasant the method for what you long
taking over
it's been so long
moving forward
it's where you belong
taking over
it's been so long
moving forward
you look up and a view
something's missing
something's so askew
you take in, interpret
is this a clue?
something at all to do with you?
lost boy, where would you go? (taking over)
moving forward
it's where you belong
taking over
where would you go
moving forward
all eyes are knowing and growing they turn to you
no smiles are showing or glowing
controlling so what did you do?
judgement's now continue as the engine is slowing down
taking over
exit a woman with a frown
moving forward
dressed in black
in her hands an orchid from the ground
where will she go
Scraping film away your eyes awake to quite the sight
a strobing TV static flares the neon motel light
a tray of ash so full
a candle burns at both it's ends
a stack of empty bottles posing in the corner as your friends
this place is a scene and now you believe
this place is obscene, and you gotta leave
"Good Morning" sir the sirens plead as they go laughing by
through the pane they bleed urgency inside
the smell of failed attempts and bad decisions
now only to fill your lungs
the taste of bitter sweet guilt now resides on your tongue
this place is a scene and now you believe
dig your bearings up from beneath the sweaty sheets
to find the scary freezing holy carpet at your feet
rise away from last nights tomb to see more in the view
the resting place of many resonates the morning dew
find yourself now reaching out for what is real
your sense of self belongs in a few belongings you can feel
a broken necklace hugs a lonesome matchbook at the seams
an empty wallet shows a picture that you've never seen
this place is a scene and now you believe
Your story only tells one side,
It's based on fact, but filled with lies
(you'd be rich if each was worth a dime)
I played my part and that's defined
You played the field on borrowed time
(and i know that fault was all but mine)
I chose to let you in
You chose to pull away
I jumped right out of my skin
When i heard you say
Everything i said was true
Everything except that i love you
If anekatips it's not me, than who?
I think i deserve to know
Now we're through and through
No glory resides inside my mind
At least i never crossed the line
(cause i don't need the distraction)
But an angel appeared on your devil's side
Nowhere to run nowhere to hide
(I'm just a nickel with traction)
So should we say goodnight
And give it one more try?
This isn't worth the fight
So let's just say goodbye
Everything i said was true
Everything except i love you too
and if it's not me, it's you!
I thought you deserved to know
now we're through and through
Sad to see forethought after me cause
that's not fair
Put yourself in my shoes and become
The fractured one cause
I no longer care!
Everything i said was true
Everything except that i love you
and if it's not me, fuck you!
I thought you deserved to know
Now I'm through with you
and if it's not me, it's you!
fly so high like a star...
i'm str8 up representin' the spirit in the world that keeps on forgettin'
the meaning of life all things are dancin' in the rhythm of eternal harmony astrology
the portrait of wisdom across the skies is full of truth no lies...
like a star i'll shine every night w/
you by my side feels so right...all alone in a world so cold,
I make an impact on lives through truth as well as lies,
I overcome your eyes and leave an etched memory forever,
it's my gift my intentions, are only well,
its my gift, fine i lead people everyday,
always in the correct way, never lead astray,
justice wears a blindfold...
justice is blind to my kind w/
an open mind you will find that the truth will set you free to be yourself,
equality is unheard of,
in this establishment pre-judicial system where money talks
i am unheard disciples from hate in control loud and clear it's not fair,
open our ears and our minds will follow, equal voice volume no longer hollow w/
this blindfold....it's so hateful and cold what we're told's another lie,
spit out by,
our nation of misinformation their hearts like cement heavy and thick
like mud no brother can afford a lawyer to correct what's been done,
innocence is money, no cash,
i just look funny, ain't hired 'cause my life's a parole,
to bad it's my life you fuckin' stole,
you can't take away my free-dumb this ostracising way of life
you're leading it's bleeding ignorance infectious to others your influence influenza...
breakin' 'em off a piece of my wicked funky style up front str8 up,
no hiding behind a facade conformed society's way masses try to fit in,
sin after sinner up inner higher self discriminatin' against the ways others
are livin' their live's but i's real different yes a unique open mind
just fuckin' sittin' around here totally bored just waitin' for fate to let me conquer my goals,
these helpless feelins' although they're not true,
no verve is left inside of my soul,
but tell me what can i do?
forced to cope, just don't know, how to acheive, my goals...
a life derived through inner strength,
and the traits in the divine, strange perversity dominates,
Why did I let you inside my life
How could I let you inside my body my soul my brain
Now I cant make you go away
You're driving me insane and inside out…
I can tell
Its meaningful and so hurtful
There's no place just to hide
I can tell you right now that this pain that I feel is not just inside of my mind
I can tell you right now that its physical and painful to be so vulnerable
This is my fault
Oh this is my fault
How could I lie to myself again
These bad decisions a never ending story
I think id know by now just how to bout to smile
You're driving me insane and inside out…because
Its meaningful and so hurtful
There's no place just to hide
I can tell you right now that this pain that I feel is not just inside of my mind
I can tell you right now that its physical and painful to be so vulnerable
I can tell you this pain is so unreal cant help but feel left all alone
I can tell you to listen to me when I say to you I know
This is my fault
Oh this is my fault
I know this is my fault
I can tell you right now that this pain that I feel is not just inside of my mind
I can tell you right now that its physical and painful to be so vulnerable
I can tell you this pain is so unreal cant help but feel left all alone
I can tell you to listen to me when I say to you I know
This is my fault
i see the truth upon that pedistal's frowning down upon me
like a trophy valued by masses of minds are closed to a variety
and change in a life so bland and boring uncontent living
through others learning from nothing experienced independantly
responsibilty pointing failure cause the reflection in the mirror is what you fear
to see like a trophy you pose like you're better than me like i care what you say...
whipped i've seen both sides of the fence
because changing is evolving a learning lesson through experience
more knowledge than your common man's 9 to 5 blindness uncontent w/
overbearing panic attack entrenching my veins
in an hour i'll be ok
i pray this pain will go away permanently someday
I'VE seen more than...
I should have to...
I'VE seen this on my own
this song is a,
poem to myself,
it helps me to live...
in case of fire,
BREAK the glass,
and move on into your own...
reoccurring drowning effect entrenching my brain,
i hope you'll be ok someday,
so i can say that you moved on in the right way...
WE'VE seen this and
WE'VE breathed this and
WE'VE lived this on our own...
this song is a,
poem to myself,
it helps me to live...
in case of fire,
BREAK the glass,
and move on into your own...
your own...
BREAK...
this song is a,
poem to myself,
it helps me to live...
in case of fire,
BREAK the glass,
Tonight's the night in your arms again
Be the one to make me whole and then
Say whatever you have to say to me on and honestly
Every single thought of you amazes me
So I'll promise you, I'll promise you to me
(Every single time that you've forgiven me)
To find the one with your heart and stem
Freed and mine much more than the rest of them
Seed the chance to grow and be with me
The way I know and see
There you are in my thoughts again
Fearing all we have is dead
Taken time as the best of friends
Well I hear a voice of faith
Resonate a belief in choice with no way to escape
It's a ploy to weaken the sense of joy and bury us
Separates the good of evil
Placing shame on helpless people
stabbing hate infectious needles shallow forces spreading seeds will
Feed the flame of ignorance takes away our freedom to say
I will not fall for you
Well I see a fingers' point
But not that use ostracizing noise with a narrowed view
It's okay the rest of us heal the pain now we're free to say
Separate yourself from all the hating people who want to take you down say
smile, can't you see i am still me, anti-authority,
same philosophy, enjoying life as much as i can i will.
trying to create that contagious smile with that passion that I long to succeed
in my ways days pass by i am not gonna sit here no more no more
no more won't you see your not me why would you want to be your an individual
corrupt errupting authority watchin over me all the time rhyme after rhyme
i'm keepin' it real w/
that spat out flow of steele, those lyrics promote a unity of the real people,
but still sometimes i feel like a walkin conspiracy theory
to all of the motherfuckers around who got a problem w/
my ways it's ok i'll keep my head up w/
my chin down bull forward head on collision, w/
those who ain't got no faith in the cause that i feel i need to get across in my lifetime
the clock's tickin' time's winding down so make it all worthwile stop blamin' me,
i'll be your scapegoat.....
these psychotic tendencies you have for me just comin' out of nowhere,
nah, if you spoke your mind more often you'd see it's not me,
cause i'm your teacher your preacher a creature willing to take on my own responsibilities though,
i'll be your scapegoat blamed by your ego's unwillingness to be confronted
and true, lackin' respect you choose to spit in the wind,
but Karmas' chasin' you blamin' me, I'll be your....
She gets everything she wants, but nothing that she needs
No respect for what things cost, or who she wants to be
Just neglect for what's been lost, 'cause nothing is for free
How can we let her get away with being this way
We've been shattered by her can't you see she has to pay
In her shadow I reside
I scream but no one's listening
Would anyone know if I died
I'm sick of no one seeing I'm alive
(In her shadow I decide I won't stay longer
In a place with silent hate inside the choice is violence towards her in disguise)
She has everything I want, but nothing that I need
Nothing earned like what I've got, gets anything she sees
Lives the life that I cannot, 'cause nothing is for free
i don't care what you think about me...
stuck in flatline but i'm still breathin' thinkin' about my options' time
to make my decision 'cause it's so easy makin' it difficult to choose
i choose myself rather than conform for you, take your authority and shove it,
individual in charge you've got to love it, absent minded blue collar worker,
a jerk or whatever you think i should be...
i don't give a damn what you think about me, your vision's distorted,
It seems it's been so long, 'cause it's been way too long
Since we've shared a warm embrace and since I've seen you smile
The wind of misery appears
And takes away from all we have
The cycle just goes on and on and on and on
'Cause only time will tell if we're meant to be
You and I won't know if it's our destiny forever endeavor
I am alone again 'cause I am alone again
The choice we have to face, is whether to move on
The urge to right our wrongs, but no fix is long
The wind of misery appears
The cycle just goes on
'Cause only time will tell if we're meant to be
I can't stand it I know you planned
I'm gonna set it straight this doggate
I can't stand rapping when I'm in here
Because your crystal light an't so crystal clear
so while you sit back and wonder why
I got this Father Figure thorn in my side
oh my' it's a thunderstrike I'm tellin' y'all It's History
So listen up cause you can't say Nothin'
You'll shut me down with a push of your bullduser
But Yo I'm out and I'm running I'm tellin you now I keep It off and off
Cause what we saw we not have got
so at first we can bet so Don't you get mocked yet
You're shcemeing on a thing that's a thunderstrike
I'm trying to tell you now It's history
Whyy: are bodies are now againest the gate
Listen up all of y'all It's History
Listen up all of y'all It's History
Listen up all of y'all It's History
Listen up all of y'all It's History
I Can't stand it I know you planned
But I'm gonna set it straight this doggate
But I can't stand rapping when I'm in this place
Because I feel disgrace Because the Baseball players are in my face
But don't make no spills and switch up the light
Express how he feels flying of the handle
what could it be
It's a Mircale
You're schemeing on a thing that's History
you know that i'm a fugitive that's how it is,
a funky freaked out twisted lyricistical mystical energy,
when i'm flowin' i'm flowin' to blow it up,
because i'm like gravy, i got the sauce to get it done right,
and acheive all there is that i want to be individuality about myself remainin' true
and free, and helpin' others in need ain't no greed conquerin' my destiny,
i live my life around the homeopathic schizophrenical energetical vocal manner
is gettin' fatter and fatter served on a platter w/
a big old fat ass side of metaphysical culture,
i've controled my past and i control my future..
don't see my life through tunnel vision w/
horizon's expanded w/
an open mind clear to those tidbits of knowledge..
pimp ass..you know i like to kick out that flowin' shit,
make you get up and grove so loose and let your inner child play out loud
and experience the only way's to learn and enjoy those times seem so
and few and far between right, take advantage w/
that smile i've seen, w/
that gold toothed grin when we win over the floor, like be4 me w/
my bro to my right side he's the man churnin' out that collaborated rhythm,
to make those clothes fill up w/
sweat, the girls are ?
I control my future, I've controlled my past,
try to keep my head clear to acheive my goals at last...
It breeds a one man show mentality self serving force fed and condoned
It takes my breath away to know that no one else believes they're in control
(Save us) From ourselves
We're at a loss of words while preaching that we can't be heard
The image staring back at you is what you hate (you don't)
Truly think forgiveness is on the way
Seven years you lost for breaking one mistake (ingrown)
To bleed for what you own is understanding as the sum for what you've blown
To truly carve your way to where you want to go is smiling while alone
All you'd show is love Yet all I'd see is hate
you know that something's wrong I know I can't relate
Wind is blowing pleasure by And I don't feel a thing
Emotion fills the sky Erosion clouds my brain
I can't seem to breathe in I can't seem to see then through the deafening silence of pain
(Left all alone again) Imprisoned by this selfish reign
(With no more rules to bend) I think I'm breaking down
And if had just one more day
I'd tell you everything, everything I had to say
I miss you
And if I had just one more day
I'd show you one last thing, honesty believes in fate
'Cause fate is what I've gained
Strength has come and gone so now I lie in wait
The void is never long The core belief in fate
I've been down this lonely road before I know the way
As situations change, the answers will remain
Now I've got a reason as time has brought new season to carry me from this pain
Living proof of selfless gain
So you want more affection to add to your distractions contraction?
The snow it bleeds a sky so grey today
Of memories what's lost not gained pretty
Reliving awful yesterdays
We can't see the other side We forget obstructed views can't see blue skies
No longer blind
Paint a portrait to be seen of hopes and dreams
Stain the canvass carelessly (our enemies)
(Take the present as a gift reversal
Make the message of what's left)
So you plead for attention to add to this dimension contention
The stroke of time just hides the safe to reign
The choke of loss despise our taste
Occasionally I feel like the walls around are closing in on me
Physically I feel sometimes I need seclusion to be free
The irony at last I see reality is my perception
And my personality is my reflection
I must eliminate and change yesterday’s
Yesterday’s pains today
I must eliminate and change yesterday’s
Yesterday’s pains today
I need to be set free from the smiles that are scarring my skin sarcastically
And cause it seems to comfort and freeze in full around me mentally
The irony at last I see reality is my deception
And my personality is my deflection
I must eliminate and change yesterday’s
Yesterday’s pains today
I must eliminate and change yesterday’s
Yesterday’s pains today
Can I make it?
I'll try
Can I take it?
I'll try
I’ve finally healed my wounds and healing the next thing and pouring out of me
The precious success becoming apparently a bigger part of me
Im looking back at the things I cant remove the past
Ok with me
The future is brighter than I could imagine it to be…
I must eliminate and change yesterday’s
Yesterday’s pains today
I must eliminate and change yesterday’s
frankly modest speech dishonest eyes uponus like a vulture in the sky
hovering carcass moulding earth filthy birth afterlife friction
based upon fiction replacing friendship untrueness speculation concentration heresy
is controlling us all this flagrant foul stench upon us
overwhelming everybody like an imaginary forklife brother
you point you finger as a scolding motherf*cker sucker blaming evil
upon another under that pedestal you hold yourself
so high above us i can't imagine what it's like to not a give a sh*t about nothin live
the whole damn story led in motion peers are punished
for their individuality separating us all
i can't believe my friends would make such a lie even though it was
i that dishonored your trust but it's done
i can't change the past i am gonna make us last just believe in me
sick and angered by my friends extremely cold and heartless
honest talkin shit behind my back about me to my friends
the source a jealous passion towards a spirit stuck in contention
and fame just need some time to myself again need to bring back
the old days when i was in control of my life again and again just endangered w/
my friends extremely bold and honest i'll be when it comes to me i said i'm sorry
but you don't hear me i tried to say that i was sorry to you
but you don't think i speak honestly thats ok cause i can move on i'm so sorry....
How could you abandon me I thought you'd always be
There for me standing tall one and one for all
My support modeling rolling as a team
But instead on our own enemies of old
Season's change the fallen rain will wash the pain away
Make amends to help understand how to live today
FUCK!
It's not your fault I understand now I'm more a man
You needed space to find yourself and I'm in the same place now
Living dreams dreaming news springing forward to
Choose a life to get me by not a life that passes by
On we march our April suits
On we march in our April boots
On we fucking march in our April suits,
i've come to grips unreality through fatality realized just how much happiness
brings to me fight lately doubt and worries inflicted my mind with an illness of ego
the worst of its kind been so busy unhappy unnerved
i can see my destiny is chasing me i am finally happy
and ready to go i had a one night stand with myself
last night the fright of a lifetime once again i have proven my strength to myself
11 Months
Slow motion
Broken and sick
Consciousless
Cryin' aloud
Life sprawled out
Blood, sweat, and tears
11 months
Four more surgeries
Still I pray
To this day
I must say it's okay
Because I was left alone
The bastard child I am
Alone and sick to my stomach
Pukin' again
Again, pukin', again
11 months
Four more surgeries
Still I pray
To this day
I must say it's okay
Oh, come on
It's just another hour broken
Oh, come on
It's just another hour cold
Oh, come on
It's just that now I'm broken
Oh, come on
It's just that now I'm alone
Oh, come on
It's just another hour broken
Oh, come on
It's just another hour cold
Oh, come on
It's just that now I'm broken
Oh, come on
It's just that now I'm alone
Oh, come on
It's just another hour broken
Oh, come on
It's just another hour cold
Oh, come on
It's just that now I'm broken
Oh, come on
It's just that now I'm alone
11 months
Four more surgeries
Still I pray
To this day
I must say it's okay
Oh, come on
It's just another hour broken
Oh, come on
It's just another hour broken
Oh, come on
It's just another now that I'm cold
Oh, come on
It's just that now that I'm broken
Oh, come on
It's just that now I'm alone
Slow motion
I'm feelin all broken and sick
Cryin' out loud, sayin to myself
My mom is gonna be healthy
My mom is gonna be healthy
Reached out for a hug
But no one was there
Cryin' alone in the corner upstairs
Sayin' to myself my mom is gonna be all right
What I excel in best
Is my excessiveness
Self deprecation
I hate myself sometimes
How can I be down when all that I want is in my reach
What's wrong with me?
Fuck it
Sumtimes I can feel so touch and go
Sumtimes as my self esteem is low
Sumtimes...at least I know sumtimes I'm beautiful
Beautiful
And if I wasn’t me
I’d still just laugh at me
And point the finger
And blame myself as well
I will not succumb to any of my peers
I’m in control
and I'm losing it
Fuck it
Sumtimes I can feel so touch and go
Sumtimes as my self esteem is low
Sumtimes…well at least I know sumtimes I’m beautiful
Beautiful
Sumtimes as my feelings coincide
Sumtimes while I struggle to survive
Sumtimes…well at least I know sumtimes I’ll be alright
You look like me
I'm sorry for you
You talk like me
I cant understand you
You think like me
You're fucking crazy
You want to be me
But that’s ok because
You remind me of me
Someway
But only the good
Cause I'm just me
Hanging by a thread for your honor
Just helps me to see inside myself
Hanging by a thread for your honor
Just helps me to see…
You act like me
Cause you're embarrassing
You talk to me
But don’t listen
You think like me
You're so damn crazy
You want to be me
But that’s ok because…
You remind me of me
Someway
But only the good
Cause I'm just me
Hanging by a thread for your honor
Just helps me to see inside myself
Hanging by a thread for your honor
Just helps me too see…
When these memories become liquid dreams just like fantasies
And like fallen leaves I guess all I need is to find my desires and set out to acquire them
You look like me
I'm sorry for you
You think like me
But that’s ok because…
Hanging by a thread for your honor
Just helps me to see inside myself
Hanging by a thread for your honor
Get Out of My Dreams
(cover of Billy Ocean's song)
Hey, you, get into my car
Yes, you
Get into my car
Yeah, who's that lady?
Walkin' down the road?
Who's that lady?
Yeah, who's that woman?
Walkin' down my door?
What's the score?
I'll be the starlight shinin' on you
Hey, Cinderella, step in your shoe
I'll be your nonstop lover
Get it while you can
Your nonstop miracle of your man
Get out of my dream
Get into my car
Get out of my dreams
Get into the backseat, baby
Get in to my car
Get out of my mind
Get into my car
Oh, oh, I said 'hey, you
Get into my car'
Lady driver, let me take the wheel
Smooth operator (shit, yeah)
Touch my bumper
Come on, let's make a deal
Make it real
I'll be the starlight shinin' on you
Hey, Cinderella, step in your shoe
I'll be your nonstop lover
Get it while you can
Your nonstop miracle of your man
(Oh, that was right)
Get out of my dream
I said for you to get into my car
Get out of my dream
Get into my car
Get out of my dream
Get into my life
Oh, I said, 'Hey, you, get into my car'
Open the door
Get on the floor
Hey, hey, hey, hey
I'll be the starlight shinin' on you
Hey, Cinderella, step in your shoe
I'll be your nonstop lover
Get it while you can
Your nonstop miracle of your man
Get out
Get out
Get out
Get out
Get out
Get out of my dream
Get into my car
Get out of my dream
Get into the backseat baby
Get into my car
Get out of my mind
Get into my car
I said, 'Hey, you
Hey, you, get into my
Hey, you, get into my
Hey, you, get into my car
She walks with a sadness like she's never known
exiting from the back in black from head to toe
a swallow of stale station air
leaving behind the taste of despair
almost running into someone she used to know
as fragile as a flower
she wonders if she can go on
it's been a long morning
another cold back Sunday
it's like shes been awake for hours
another dying Sunday
she hopes to hide these things behind a darkened veil
she dies inside thinking of every time she failed
it seems like only yesterday
a memory of golden grey
foreshadowing a pale tomorrow
if she could hold on one more hour
maybe she can go on
it's been a long morning
another cold back Sunday
it's like shes been awake for hours
another dying Sunday
she knows she tried
stuck in the middle
she blames herself, a little
she knows she tried
suck in the middle
she hates this sound
it's been a long morning
another cold back Sunday
it's like shes been awake for hours
Beyond the back row off the beat and path
step into a field of dying blades of grass
so thick I have to use my hands
and slowly sinking in quicksand
I'll pull away till I can see again
Staring down with a kiss from the sky
unsure what feeds the flame
i know a secret way
unclear the reason why
I'll go in hopes to find
between the field now and the river bed
inching closer to the waters edge
3 rocks separate the flow
each stride I chip away the stone
every breath I pray a miracle
raining down like a kiss from the sky
unsure what feeds the flame
i know a secret way
unclear the reason why
I'll go in hopes to find
setting foot on solid ground again
at the hillside's steepest climb
nearing the top I seem among the clouds
staring down like a kiss from the sky
unsure what feeds the flame
i know a secret way
unclear the reason why
Inside I'm free
no need to breathe
the knife cuts a careful arch
intent to leave it's mark
and through it, i see
Around and around the bend
this circle remains an end
Around and around the bend
this circle remains a friend
Around and around the bend
this cycle remains a test
in the garden she's scene
captured imagery
buried beneath the ground
still life all around
and through it, i see
Around and around the bend
this circle remains an end
Around and around the bend
this circle remains a friend
Around and around the bend
this cycle remains a test
Around and around the bend
this circle remains an end
with a step she closes in on me
like broken glass
a drop of jewelry
with a click she takes my breath away
and holds it for another day
Around and around the bend
this circle remains an end
Around and around the bend
this circle remains a friend
Around and around the bend
this cycle remains a test
Around and around the bend
this circle remains an end
below the place i carve and rest
a matchbook sparks a lone address
the fire burns and walks with me

I'm your mirror's reflection,
What you don't like about me is what you hate in yourself,
You should see through others eyes be4 you go ahead
And make 'em feel like shit stop it
But you won't because you hate yourselves images bitch,
Sometimes I get so frustrated haunting visions in the back of my mind,
Oh you struck a pose w/
Your hand extended open arms in an idiocratic ways you try to lie to yourselves
But you can't break through that sacred wisdom of your spirit...
Used me, but you want to know me.
When I look into your eyes, you help me realign
And show me just how to be myself inside
I’m in control of everything
It’s taking time but that’s ok
I can bring you to my side
You're my blessing in disguise
You’re mine (You’re mine)
You’re mine (You’re mine)
You’re my blessing in disguise
You make me realize
Just how and where I want to be
Years from now
When my focal point is set
I’m something I know I'll get
It’s not a question of how but more of when
You're a hot commodity
The choice is mine and mine for keeps
I can bring you to my side
When I look into your eyes, you help me realign
And show me just where my dedication lies
I’m in control of everything it’s taking toll but that’s ok
it's ironic considerate rarity patron of love higher knowledge engulfs me
'cause the blast of fate a lesson to my eyes concerned
and overwhelmed theirs were of fear and i am feelin so empty inside
and yet it bruns so akward this time it's something with my pride lies
i cannot hide my true side and maybe in distress i can still come out laughing
that's the way i am this little boy proud of helping those in need
but he's not me but just maybe he could be
i can see it now because i am a hero to his eyes
temporarily blind this immature kid a spirit as well an angel hiding by helping
and wanting to understand me tears a waterfall of acide
cries from his eyes i need to recognize it's meant to be
am i hard to recognize what do i need to realize
sometimes i just sit back and wonder what was meant to be learned from that event that occured everything happens for a reason right i left behind just another tragic lesson in life an organic rush adrenaline flight high above the traumatised situation of life...it's ironic, considerate rarity patron of love, higher knowledge engulfs me 'cause, the blast of fate a lesson, to my eyes concerned and overwhelmed theirs were of fear yet i'm feelin' so empty inside and yet it burns so akward this..time.....tears a waterfall of acid cries from his, eyes, i need to recognize, it's meant to be...he's alive and his cries just begin arisin' suprisin' as well...this little boy proud of helpin' those in need but he's not me but just maybe he could be, i can see it now because, i'm a hero in his eyes temporarily blind this immature kid a spirit as well an angel, hiding by helping and wanting to understand..me...it's somethin' w/ my pride, lies, i cannot hide my true side, and maybe in distress i can still come out laughing

well i need to be around you and i need to see your eyes on me now
and i need to caress your face with mine
and i need to know that you care 'cause i bleed in pain when i'm without your soul
cuz I love you on a level so high ot's hard sometimes I know i am to me around you
we have to be together now I'll miss you while I'm gone
but here and now is where I belong.
will you wait around for me,
You painted offense while you plead a defense
You took advantage of average
You pleased those deceived but couldn't earn me
My god wouldn't use his leverage
If faith had an 800 number
I'd disconnect myself
If I had to be a member
I'd rather be left out
You fell for those lies while they took your mind
Your eyes were closed from the inside
Your heart was so full of infomercial
You couldn't hear the blind talking
everything u say is negative thats how you live ???? anothers your visions so blind thats how u fuckin live talkin shit behind peoples back your just playin your self sucka thats how u live negative reinforcement thats who u r your not ??? blind your always talkin shit behind peoples back your just playin your self sucka im just mother fuckers make me wanna scream aint down with dat shit u know I u know u need to rearrange fool fuckin cunt (scream)
If life was a game, could I win in the end?
And if I was sane, would I fuck it up all over again?
These questions and answers can help me redefine myself
And I thank your open ears for all the help
(no more shame)
Is what I see for myself
I need to change for my health
I need a better way of life for myself
If I stay the same, how long will I last?
Yet if I change will I still just be alone and typecast?
Professional answers cant help me to design myself
So I thank your open arms for all their help
(no more shame)
Is what I see for myself
I need to change for my health
I need a better way of life for myself
Caressing gateways of the mind
Over, matter through spaces time
Heals wounds inspiring gifts of light
Inside myself just need some time
(just need some time to myself)
To figure it out, cause I’ve got no doubt
That when my dreams come true it's because of you
And the fact that I let you
(No, no, more shame)
Is what I see for myself
I need to change for my health
I need a better way of life for myself
Caressing gateways of our minds
looks like I've fucked up again what's new
I am always getting out of hand though in control sometimes just don't give a shit
I get raw have fun I love it so sick of sayin' sorry
those apologies have got to go
but I don't intend to create a pain in your heart I am a pain in the ass
cause that's what I am about day by day
I can see a change in every way some things get worse some things get better
I hate to say those blatant lies are now a part of my past
I hope I don't get confronted abusing others' minds through control
I don't want it to last so here I go
I am on my way
I am leaving for good
I pray that you forgive me for all of the harm that
I caused cause we were friends and we had some great times and that's why
I am just fine cause that's the way it is I hate to say
I can't tease you no more for your pleasure you whore
I can't lie around your sore ass
I used to adore now you bore me I won't be abused
I'll ignore your a failure breaking sacred emotional ties for a piece of nothin' selfish
and a shame placing all the blame on us your selfish
and a shame to us you can't live life this way you can't hurt me like that
cause your not even strong you're wrong and won't be around long
so just take a hint and be gone and move on please selfish
everything u say is negative thats how you live....
anothers your visions so blind thats how u fuckin live talkin shit
behind peoples back your just playin your self sucka
thats how u live negative reinforcement thats who u r
your not your blind your always talkin shit
behind peoples back your just playin your self sucka
im just motherfuckers make me wanna scream aint down with dat shit
sick and angered by my friends extremely cold and heartless talkin shit
behind my back about me to my friends the source a jealous passion towards
a spirit stuck in contention and fame just need some time to myself
again need to bring back the old days when i was in control of my life
again and again just endangered with my friends extremely bold and honest
i'll be when it comes to me i said i was sorry
but you don't hear me i tried to say that i was sorry to you
but you don't think i speak honestly that's ok cause i can move on now
in company respect's shown mutual into it's own,
indifference although when i'm left alone and true feeling's begin to show,
honesty overflows in my mind when i try not to cry 'cause i'm blind and alive,
and esteem has no gleam and it can't be seen,
i'm so alone, i still can't understand these feeling's that i'm feelin,
you're pullin' me back and forth all that you're doin' is confusin' me,
with this emotional strain, it's drivin' me to the edge of insanity,
you can't blame me for your pain and sufferin'...
not keepin on no downlow,
i'm screamin the flow in your face,
just like mace in your eyes, like feelin' my bass in your thighs,
it's time to recognize and realize that your ways are not the only ways
to lead your life...
low, concerned about what others think right,
cause your ego's makin' your core so weak tunnel vision,
you move from .a to .b to .c,
that's not the point see, you lived your life around me....
i'm crushed inside, each day i get by, w/
the gleam in my eyes...
if you want me then just try to find me,
if you ever need to suck me dry,
when you need me you won't ever see me i've lost respect now watch you cry,
touched on me so shortly then just left me 2 you watched me bleed
now you smile, you walked through me while you crushed that gleam
Tonight I'm freakin' out again
Tonight I'm thinkin' so low
All I wanted was a friend all I've got is no one
Tonight I'll sleep alone I won't sleep at all
My heart isn't alive
Right now I'm sinking further down
Right now I'm breaking inside
A long drive to see you lie in bed
A long ride wishing for your life
Tonight I'll stay with you
And I will get us through
My heart ripped from my chest
Too late I hope not for this
My heart isn't alive
(My arms carry the weight
Two hands folded yet sraight
My arms closed in a prayer for you)
Nauseous preparing for the worst
Cautious repairing open wounds
Yet somehow believing in a chance
It'll turn out to be another test
And you'll come back again
Time
Just a counter-clockwise in motion
Time
It requires strength, love, and devotion
Time
A detention of every person
Time
Is used to make us free again
When we can turn back time, to any time
By moving on inside
And will we still ask why about the time
Or be just fine inside of our minds?
Time
Grows things older, faster when you find it
Time
It's wasting away while we spend it
Time
The reflection of our past with it
Time
Is used to make things right again
When we can turn back time, to any time
By moving on inside
And will we still ask why about the time
Or be just fine inside of our minds?
I can see this coming over my mind
Cause you're right
It's life, my light
When we can turn back time, to any time
By moving on inside
And will we still ask why about the time
Or be just fine inside
When we can turn back time, to any time
By moving on inside
And will we still ask why about the time
Or be just fine inside of our minds?
Our minds
Because you're right
Inside our minds
