PRIVILEGED LIFE

This life feels like it has maid wrong turn to our destination
Thinking the next turn will be our real liberation
No one thinking they just blindly listening
Responsibility is placed on the victim, for that there is no forgiving

Privileged life
Threaten by other people enjoying life
As they cut barbecue with a knife

A closed mind is closed to the diversity of life
It is a threat to the boredom of uncultured traditions
Pride in hate does not make anyone great

Privileged life
Threaten by historical truths who really owned whom
When true love was found jumping over the broom

What is marriage the beginning to everlasting romance
Or a contract where you only get half as the lawyers laugh
Unconditional love should be the goal of everyone

Privileged life
When there is proof you are wrong
But you lie with the same old song

Stick a needle in your eye there no way to explain your lie
Step on a crack to break your mother's back (is that what Sarah's children try to do?)
With no job you lost all your pride all you got is time

GAZE

She got the walk you think you got the line
But you can't talk for you she is too fine

Gaze
You got no game
Gaze
You just so lame
With that gaze

Why you look at her that way
Like she is some kind of prey

Gaze
What you got to say
Gaze
When you see her every day
Look away with that gaze

You might be hooked on her looks
Got to get to know her so read her like a book

Gaze
This life is a maze
Gaze
If you want some
Personel fun is more than that gaze

Her feminity is a strength it will make you weak
Her voice so strong knowing right from wrong

Gaze
Can't hide from those dark eyes
Gaze
If you don't listen to the truth, it is just noise
This world is mine, and yours hold that gaze

KISS AWAY

Didn't forget how to pray
Didn't lose my way
I just don't claim a title or name

My thoughts of you come and go through the day
I just sit still inside and out thoughts of you light the way
It is just a reminder your just a kiss away

Sacrilegious is a myth when we don't forgive
We celebrate the torture of the son when killing is a sin
I just don't want to play those games

I try to control my thoughts and the way I talk
Just to be a good person is all I want
It is a reminder your just a kiss away

Preacher tells me the path to a place he has never been
Saturday laying with sister juice fruit
Sunday claiming to be better than you

Don't want to hide when I have nothing to prove
To be what you see in me is all I can strive to do
It is reminder your just a kiss away

MODERN CLOWN

Shame is all over your face
Symbols tattooed in random places
It is your pain you maid no sympathy for those tears

Modern clown
Can't tell up from down
Old school doesn't understand your sound

The millennials pray to you when you are not that cool
They say your smart but you act the fool
Like the Little name, you are a tool

Modern clown
Can't tell up from down
Pain for your laziness is your sound
