Emocentrica 04:50
Back in my own skin, whatever has happened You've given this life a spin, no way to pretend So watch my spirit, draw me closer Come on let's do this, let's make it happen The neighbours can't help but guess, I'll just count to ten To check my rhythm, draw me closer My eyes were clueless, 'till I gazed into Yours And my world was too lifeless, You gave Yours to me Still guide me slowly, draw me closer I see the faces, worn down by attrition Phasing through pure circumstance, here's a suggestion To pay it forward, please draw me closer To love is to translate my deeds through grace For more than, light Emocentrica And You're whispering, the best way to live Is to save the world, one act at a time So how do I do that, is there a problem Was I too wayward, to even consider Giving up time, fulfilling Your cause Are all things possible, I need to believe so And I need an element, an element of Hope To keep me going, fulfilling Your cause Call me a dreamer, and call me a schemer 'Cos there's a whole universe, in each human psyche Still too grand to leave, still magnificent views I'm still not perfect, I don't need to be You're all that this life matters, You're all that proves to be Empower me now, Immaculate Dear To love is to translate my deeds through grace It's more than, Emocentrica And You're tellin' me, the best way to go Is to save the world, one act at a time In the Kingdom of Hope, there's no Winter

This is life, it was meant to be It is what it is, just think positive Follow your heart, it's all possible You gotta do what you gotta do Good things happen to those who wait Be anything you want to be Life gives you lemons, make lemonade Everything happens for a reason Look on the bright side, know your limits Tomorrow's another day No matter what you do right now It's always something, just be yourself Take it one day at a time You'll thank me for this one day But our hearts go out But our hearts go out But our hearts go out It's another platitude magnitude Flaunting with claustrophobic frenetic aptitude Stripping off our verbalized requisite interludes Whipping up uninvited deadpans and misplaced cues Are these real smiles of plausible gratitude Or just some concessional bleach of our multitude To fool ourselves to live out new altitudes Really to ultimately plunge us to depths so crude No no

If you taste a string wrapping over your dry lips And if you feel alive, it ramps up for a kick flip A body zipping down, legs turn around More air in the face, that's great, let's take it off A ghost in the wood, the world becomes an ink pool And pavements loom forth and carefree is still king of cool See white turning red, bled turn to cred Plastic busting tail, gnarly, let's make us fly Stamp out the oxygen, and then raid our starry lungs For these nights of quickened gasps brightly save our motley hides But we're not so scared of getting off, too numb When you're conked in the hip, pick yourself back up again It ain't no bother, ain't no trouble, so shake those dirty heels If you run a neat silhouette on a half-pipe Just now, you like it raw, the kinks, the grits, the toxic hype Down cracks on the side, breaths strong as tides Watch out pedestrians, so clutch, let's crank this up Smoke that pavement Kick that tail up Turbo upswing Spill the canvas Break the plaster Bake it, shake it, naked, shake it

Blow Up 03:18
Drowning in my threes Sticking on my hands How do people find peace If they swallow their own heads? Wrestling for a key Going to nowhere Neighbourhood of make-believe Over mathemagic land One day, I'll blow up sane Someday, I'll touch the stars In years, I'll write a song And mark the end of a devil's reign Soiling hyper-think Then, I'm blasting off this link

You and I hit town, my autumn of my eye But pedal at the sounds, in our portrait left undone To where we locked our wheels, forever That no one cares to steal, just whenever And the buzz is still high, it's bristling my hairs Rising up, this side looks new Paint drips down, and we drenched ourselves I turn green and you turn blue We slap ourselves on ivory walls Make a better world, us raging pioneers Though we're decent boys and girls, we shall knock the column down And turn the textbook around, forever And leave no colors bound, ever after But the air is still charged, it's tugging your strings Rising up, this side looks new Paint drips down, and we drench ourselves Today is ours to saturate The screens along the ivory heights I'll be green and you'll be blue To emblazon breaths on ivory walls The moon will shine its light tonight And split its spectrum off our backs This is our time, 'cos this is our prime

Beasts 03:16
A horse and a tiger fiercely trot with the dog A sheep seeks a rabbit to fellowship with the boar A snake's plot with an ox here wins the rooster's hearth A rat shows off its wits to monkeys, to dragons Glamorous fantastic animals You've perceived animals, inner animals The likes of which you've warmly worn And true animals, the ones that come out Secret, secret, secretive beasts From your pillars of des-ti-ny Wood, fire, earth, metal, water Are warping side by side by side by side by si-i-i-ide Such splendid shapes

So I opened my eyes towards some blasted land Twenty-thirty-four, the air out here was damned Positions of the stars of the sky were all wrong Making fun of the years and my sins all along Dads were by themselves, abandoned with no love And I felt my cheating heart brimming with enough What good does a man? Are we imitations? To gain the world? The coastlines were off, we've made us our own gods And McDonald's of our lives with greed as our crop In these diners of ambition where dishes are best served cold We had to ruminate on the precious lives we stole Then something else happened, a hand on my shoulder I angled to the night to a Face so shining bright This Light has brought me back, to where I do belong Twenty-umpteen present, the nightmare world is gone The sky and coasts are back, fathers in abundant love Such a peaceful moment, forever here How great is the man, who gives life to people Who decides not to vanquish, with science and power What good can we do, when we set down agendas And live not for ourselves, but forgiveness and mercy? Paying it forward, amidst the Constellations Priming the skies, We Are Constellations Setting the skies, We Are Constellations Twinkling the skies, We Are Constellations
