Venus Moon

Come with me, I will show you, you will see
If you trust me, I will take you, we’ll be free
Don’t you see that I will love you for all eternity
When the flowers are in bloom and the sky’s beauty is our room
We will sing together this golden tune
We will sing together under our Venus Moon
This golden tune
Our Venus moon
Our love is strong
We belong together
Come and see, my heart bleeds for you, everyday
From the morning, to the evening, I’m in pain
I do need you, need you to heal me, with your love and harmony (Don’t you know that) When the flowers are in bloom and the sky’s beauty is our room
We will sing together this golden tune
We will sing together under our Venus Moon
This golden tune
Our Venus moon
Our love is strong
We belong together
This love wont be our broken (heart)

I Feel Your Love
03:13
|

Into my life you came and we found love every hour
Nothing can stop our love for each other
There is no other
You make me feel so good inside,
I just want to sing!
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
I know I want you
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
I feel your love
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
I know I need you
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
I feel your love
The sun set on the water,
But the night’s still bright, the moons out tonight.
Subdued by the light in your eyes
I am bound to this love we’ve found
You make me feel so good inside,
I just want to sing!
I like the way it feels, when I look into your eyes
You are such a, such a sweet surprise
I’m starting to see through your disguise
I look into your eye’s and it makes me cry, cry…

Mr. Big Funk, he’s got every ones needs
Mr. Big Funk, the prince or party
Mr. Big Funk, he treats his ladies right
But they’ll have to pay at the end of the night
He’s the man they’re looking for
When they’re borrowing from the people next door
He is the mister that gets all the girls
He gets to kiss her and play with her curls
His head holds up hi a large set of hair
If you mess with his ladies you’d better beware
Money Machine, Money, Money
He's Mr. Big Funk
Money Machine, Money, Money
He's Mr. Big Funk
Mr. Big Funk, he’s got every ones needs
Mr. Big Funk,the prince of party
If you see him you’d hardly believe
The ever aromatic money machine
Money Machine, Money, Money
He's Mr. Big Funk
Money Machine, Money, Money
He's Mr. Big Funk
He’s a player, player, player…
Inside his magic bag… Lays the junk that made him Mr. Big Funk!

I'm Free
04:18
|

Don’t grieve for me now I’m free
I’m following the path god laid out for me
I took his hand when I heard him call
I turned my back and I left it all
I’m Free
I couldn’t stay one more day
To laugh to love to rise above to work or play
Tasks left undone they must stay that way
I found my peace at the close of the day
I’m Free
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish you my love for all tomorrow
My life’s been full I’ve savored so much
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch
Maybe my time seemed to brief
Don’t lengthen it now with this undue grief
Lift up your heart and come share with me
God wanted me now he has set me free
I’m Free

This Struggle
04:09
|

So long and hard this life can be
All for the love and the misery
No right can make this right for free
Take responsibility for what I have
I’ve brought unto me
It’s what keeps us alive
This struggle you see
Sometimes I feel like I can’t see
Lead by my tongue to tastes so sweet
So I push my self far away from me
It hurts to have a weathered chest
Though my heart beats strong and I will do my best
It’s what keeps us alive
This struggle you see
It’s what keeps us alive
This struggle you see

Was It Really Worth It?
03:53
|
|||
Blonde-eyed devil your words have caused me pain,
But I’ve let them go now like a thunder storm drops it’s rain.
Bruised little boy, you’ve used me, revealed your ways.
I’m over you now! I won’t be your crutch and cane.
Ungrounded haste, induced pain, screams that’s stained my mind
Lost brother was it really worth it?
Was it really something that you wanted to say?
Did it make a difference to bring it up any way?
Now it’s interfered and our friendship’s gone astray?
Is there really nothing left for us to say?
Ungrounded haste, induced pain, screams that’s stained my mind
Lost brother was it really worth it?
Let us not worry, breaking vow
There will be no fight in the end
There will be not fight with these tears
I will not hate you, forgive I’ll try
Let us remind ourselves that we both have needs.
Let us remember the past that we bleed.
Please don’t mistake me now you know we both must feed.
But I will not pull you from the ground like a weed.
Ungrounded haste, induced pain, screams that’s stained my mind
Lost brother was it really worth it?

Still Malaise
06:56
|
|||
She wouldn’t see it, she couldn’t see if he was there
Tears rolled down her flushed heated cheeks, she had lost his dawn
No bright horizon, no dew drops in mourning, the air’s been dried
She couldn’t see him, but she could feel that he was there
Blinded by the sun that no longer shines
The post comes on Tuesdays, but it seems it’s been delayed, so she stayed
Closer to home, and near the phone waiting for a sign
Her hope for arrival and her hope for survival became so clear
Far from the now, for reasons untold she knew you were near
Blinded by the sun that no longer shines
No longer shines, No…….
No longer shines No……
Just a son sedated by the norm
He was hooked at the lip to a system of form.
Tempted by the chance to dance with success
He gave his voice for valor and nothing less
Romanced by belligerence and burning rites
He ended up just a pawn numbed by militant might
He hauled indignity atop his saddle, just a war horse, carrying a rich mans’ rattle
Now the son has set and darkness fell and mother’s has wept.
She found lunacy and sorrow, lunacy and sorrow, knowing she’d be alone tomorrow
She lies gazing at the moon in the haze
She’s stuck in a still malaise
In a still malaise
In a still malaise
With a wishing mind and a will to find he set off
All other matters and mothers tearing patter slipped away
He sauntered far and he swelled with temperance he thought there was time
Now she’s all alone and she’s falling stoned, her eyes don’t lie
Blinded by the sun that no longer shines
No longer shines, no…….
She lies gazing at the moon in the haze
She’s stuck in a still malaise
She lies gazing at the moon in the haze
She’s stuck in a still malaise
In a still malaise

Fly Away
03:43
|

I want to fly away
I don’t like it here
Been on a long, long trip, my heart beat it skipped
But I will not die today cuz
I will not stay
I want to fly away
I want to fly away
I want to fly away
Fly away
I will not cry that day
But I will be sad to leave, leave, leave
Bet on a lass I did now my hearts gone and ripped
I know it’s right anyway
I cannot stay
I want to fly away
I want to fly away
I want to fly away
Fly away
I can’t lie, betray
So please don’t ask why I wave good-bye
It’s time to take back my grip my roots are stripped
It feels so good to say
I’m on my way home
I want to fly away
I want to fly away
I want to fly away
Fly away

On Track

What happened to you my friend
Living a life of pretend
Where di you go?
I thought I saw you show it was your time to grow
Your chance to know and you threw it all away for her
Your self inflicted
Absolved in your comfort
Dissolved in water
On track again
Keep trying to pretend it’s the end
Derailed at the bend
Your eyes were open
Shocked and broken
Despair set in you shout out you defend
Clouded mind stop trying to find reasons
Start looking within scour the depths of your soul
Don’t sacrifice your self, reveal the new you
Shocked and broken
By your lovers end
She’s gone away

What's The Difference?
04:28
|
|||
Step into my floral office
Smell the sweet aroma in the air
Feel my eyes admire stemmed beauty, feel my stare
Taste the heat in my wind and the salt that you wear
I want you to breath me in
Together we can live a little sin
What’s the difference anyway?
I want to give you a little of my love
What's the difference anyway?
I want to give you just a little of my love
Stop making this so hard
You know you want to meet me
Accept the sign, stop acting blind, my love’s not hard to find
Behind my glass doors lies the key, multi colored flowers for you and me
I want you to drink me down & take me in
Forever fill your vase with my gin
(Where we lay… Each other… where we lay)
It’s a conquest baby, I must have you my lady. With this pressure pounding on my chest, I can feel you and I know you’re the best. With the softest pedals and the sweetest caress, I want to give to you what I’ve never given the rest. I’ve been blessed, yet tested and misdirected by your ways. You’ve left me still, stuck, in a daze, always asking how to get out of this maze. Yet the salt from your brow still makes me scream and shout, shout. Blossom beauty you are my floral ruby. I’ll be your host, I’ll hold you close
I won’t let you go, but I’ll let your grow. All the cares and comforts that you could expect. They’ll all be your if you just nibble my neck
You’ve stepped into my floral office
Why must you still make this so hard?
You took my key, you watered me, and we quenched our thirst
Please don’t ignore your needs. Lets feed each other until we burst
Now I know you’re not too shy
It’s for the best, stop asking why

Sugar Honey

Come with me, I’ll take my time
It won’t be too long before you feel sublime.
I’m feelin’ the heat, all through my spine
Would you join me for a glass of wine?
I’d like to bet that we wont have any regrets.
Let us re-live the moment, the moment when we first met
Sugar honey won’t you be my girl?
You will see, this feeling right
Love has come over me, I’m holdin’ on tight!
Breath with me, like second nature
Let us exist in effortless might
We can build a fort, climb a tree, comb the sand
While we walk hand and hand.
Together we can remedy our emptiness
And fill it with a sexy kiss!
Sugar honey won’t you be my girl?
You’re so sweet, in your absence
I can still feel the blood runnin’ down to my feet
Will you meet me on stormy nights?
And seek shelter in each other’s rites?
Together we can hibernate, contemplate
With the power of love we will levitate
Transcend to a new love,
So pure we will rise above
Sugar honey won’t you be my girl?

As One

As One
We are coming together as one
We are coming together as one
And it feels so good
So real it is, the need for union
The seeds of love need watering
And our lives need not be numbed down
We are as one with this need for union, communion with the divine together intertwined we shine. With all the pain in the name of power people’s gain we need to stand strong and not let our bonds wane. We need to stop this oil bloodstain! This occupation of another peoples land can't continue to stand in our mothers and fathers hands. There is no way this fight is in the name of the one, the creator, he ain't no dictator. We need to stand together united in the light from above, united, united by compassion and love. People don't fail us now! Let us come together like the seeds of diversity in a wildflower meadow do sprout. Where the rolling hills where the numbers of beauty aren't measured in singularity and doubt. But in the whole, the collective, where cohesion mounts.
We are coming together as one
We are coming together as one
And it feels so good

What If? (What Could Be)
03:38
|

Tell me are livin’
Tell me how’d you give in
I sure hope that you’re breathin’
I sure hope that you’re still dreamin’
Of what could be….
Tell me are drownin’
Tell me are you bound in
Has time stood still, left you screamin’
Have the rhymes left chills remindin’ you…
Of what could be….
Hear me this time
Don’t slip through the cracks numbed and blind
Feel the surge
Let go give into all that you see
Remember you are a part of what could be
Tell me are you finally free
Tell me how it feels to see what you see
Is it all that you wanted to be
Now that you’re livin’ in this harmony
Of what you thought could not be…
