Feels Like Victory
03:04
|
|||
Well it feels like victory
As good as it can be
The possibilities
Of dreams realities
Manifesting day by day
Each step gradually
I’m feeling wide awake
Even in my sleep
And I like to see you there
And see you’re still aware
And I like to see you here
And see that you’re still near
Making it is great
If you avoid the big mistakes
That you and I have made
as our worlds take shape
There’s a different sense of being
As the phoenix spreads it’s wings
New day, new beginning
Is arriving redemption
To be alive and rendering
I try to be better than
The man I was, that’s when
Sins can be forgiven

Only Money
03:09
|

Money’s only money
It’s only money
It’s only money you know.
I’d like to hold you tight and say that it’s alright
But I’ve got to let you go
I’ve got to let you go
Maybe it’s cause I feel good
It’s kind of funny how
The feeling comes and goes
It’s really what you wish for but
It’s kind of crummy how
You didn’t love me so
They didn’t see it in me
They didn’t see it
They didn’t see it before
I’ll keep in mind the few who did
I’ll keep in mind that
I’ll always hold you close
To my heart, my mind visualizes
Those who mean the most
They were with me throughout
With my mind I’m with you
I’ll never let you go
I’m here can you hear me,
can you see me,
To me there’s no question
The doubt has left and I’m left here with you
Until the very end
There's a God up above...

Temptation's Offerings
03:00
|
|||
Feels like I’ve got to choose
To always refuse
The various evils
Telling me to cruise
Towards temptation
And easy sin
the kind of gratification
That is just a short term thing
Well it all catches up
As the past makes up
Who you become
And so I’ve had enough
And yeah it can be tough
To call your own bluffs
A God up above
I feel is watching us
And so I must proceed
As I believe the need
Through thorough reflecting
On the times and teachings
And keep considering
The warnings that I get
Refrain from wondering
I’m far from finished yet

Darkness In The Field
04:08
|
|||
I’ve calmed down
as time unfolds
It’s a new dawn now
I have full control
And that’s the goal
It feels good to have a soul
But this too means we have to pay a toll
To have this
Everlasting passion
It’s astounding
I wouldn’t make it without it
And that’s the way
I feel I have to pay
my anomaly state
to denominate

Past Regrets
03:51
|
|||
I used to think about things I should have done
instead of thinking about things that I should do
I used to think about stuff I shouldn’t of done
Instead of about what to continue to do
It could be a test
Cause failure is real
Come back from it
And how you can feel
I’ve been wondering to what extent
That I should go all out
Got to give it 100 percent
To get done what I should do
It could be a test
Cause failure is real
Come back from it
And how you can feel
To fill this void that I have left
As long as I’m on this quest
As long as I can still take a breath
I’ll try to give this my best
It could be a test
Cause failure is real
Come back from it
And how you can feel
I accept all of my regrets
I can breath now
I’ll give this my best

Two's Enough
03:04
|
|||
As the vision manifests
With a mission
To dish out my best
Who should care
Who’s aware
The call I heard
In my ear
Quelling any
petty fears
Been at this for many
heavy years
They’ll always be resilience
You are who you must convince
Seems most people
Don’t wish for you
What you want
They want you to
Just fit in
Another human being
Who doesn’t dare
Live their dream
It’s jealousy, why let them win?
it’s better when you do your thing
find a crew that’ll lift you up
They may be few
But two’s enough

Electric Soul

This Instrument
02:37
|
|||
I'm very, very happy
with this instrument I've got
It's really punchy, really thumpy
the tone's so warm and hot
I'll just stay in tomorrow
string bend on the wood neck
It could be Saturday, it could be summer
the bass is calling me my friend
My troubles, they leave me
with such pleasing easy thoughts
when I feel the notes streaming
through the air so glorious
It took some time for me to find it,
a while for it to sink in
and since you too found your passion,
the fundamental way to swim

The Low End Flow
02:56
|
|||
You can come back from
A psychotic hell
With the bass, that’s a hypnotic
Tonic that heals
No care who looks at me different now
From the sounds that were given
What was written down
It’s all sincere and when I disappear
No fear I'll bring forth more for your ears
It’s on it’s way cause I need it to stay
On top of my game with the rock display
The fretboard’s got a certain magic
I don’t get bored, I can just attack it
The green can leave you susceptible
Plus the music magnifies what’s left in you
Combine the two that would give me the cue
To create something supernatural
But on that no need to depend
The low end gets me high to no end
