New Ghost 10:16
Patches of intent over time This bridge is coming closer Closer to all of this So we think we don't know Reach back and wrestle through This call to understanding I'll dig this hole in time If you meet me at the fountain Patches of intent over time Lend to new beginnings Fraction of electric light Or a ghost you think you don't know It's time to mind the paradigm Left behind for us to find Let the bind begin again So meet me at the fountain How'd you know that I'd be waiting for you? All alone just me in your presence Hello from here to your essence In a crowd surrounded all waiting for you How'd you know that I'd be waiting for you?

Orange 04:11
I fought sleep my heart refused to lie to me to get it over me too much honesty remember regretfully and all my friends disagree and we all saw the same thing is this obvious? is this over me? why is forgiveness so hard? when all is orange washed in me orange I found no peace my heart refused to lie to me to get it over these harsh realities if only I could leave but I'm a fag to appease and I woke up in the same jeans is this obvious? is this over me? why is forgiveness such a wall? when all in orange walled in me is orange I lost my halo born of a psycho that lurks now at the borders of my castle where I seek order Oh, my love settle me when I'm so sown of these hate seeds is this obvious? is this over me? why is forgiveness so hard? when all is orange washed in me orange all is orange washed in me orange

Proletariat 04:13
Were we born to bear the weight of a capitalist? Whose profits need to be up this season And whose department is on the line I'm the one he needs To make that crucial purchase Some people just play the bitch I should get over it It hurts me to see someone suffer To watch someone wasted To be taken advantage of But what am I to do The proletariat rule Is our freedom the fuel of the great profiteer? Whose gluttony sparks and drives us all What does a man need? What is the option? A lofty utopian vision? We could all just get over this Let's pull on the fibers of our inheritance And look around at what surrounds us all What does a man need We must not be complacent I want to stand in agreement And work to get over this

EA-Wonder 07:45
So it seems this just won’t come to me A hollow hull awaits a fill Over time and lost design I float above what makes me whole It’s not easy to wonder How much time we need to take Hold tight to your emotion In the beauty of escape It’s not easy to wonder About how much time we’ll need to make Take time to define The other side of reaching out Pulling as it should from the inside To begin looking in without the doubt It’s not easy to wonder How much time we need to take When you salten up yourself Just don’t lose the things you taste It’s not easy to wonder How much time we’ll need to make

Melungeon 05:38
In the 1750s, Scotch-Irish settlers, following land grants from the King of England, moved through the Appalachian Mountains and encountered a peculiar tribe of dark-skinned, sometimes blue-eyed people speaking Elizabethan English and calling themselves "Portygee" or Turks. They lived in familiar wood-frame houses, practiced metallurgy, and rang a bell for religious service. According to one theory of their appearance, the English explorer Sir Francis Drake, was on his way to his colony in Roanoke, Virginia, in 1586, with 500 slaves captured from Spanish galleons. He abandoned the slaves off the coast of North Carolina, leaving them to their fate. At the time of their rediscovery, the Melungeons were considered legitimate landowners, but later in the century, as their land became more valuable, they were reclassified as "free persons of color" which stripped them of their lands, the right to vote, to be represented in court and to public education. To this day, the Melungeons still seek to uncover the roots of their history.

Kindness 05:09
(It comes in waves To find high and low) I could bless you I can make you better I can make you want to make you better I could bless you I am forever wanting to please you (It comes in waves To find high and low) Perhaps a challenge Something you could fathom Because I only want to Make you want to make you better I could touch you I am forever wanting to please you (It comes in waves To find high and low) I think I should elevate you Reinstate you Raise the depths of my oceans Because I don't want to leave you landlocked

I show up Expanded and high There in the right mind Probably wise I don't think that You can feel it Though you try So hard to be it I will hold no secrets It's no secret Go on get out Of the kitchen With your big head dippin bitchin The fork tongued in your mouth so vicious Get your ass On that pile of dishes Greasy plates that feels like fishes It's no secret I'll float out of these hood systems and away I try to leave this behind me I don't think that you can feel it Though you try so hard to be it I will hold no secrets It's no secret

Weight 09:00
reasons pluralized listen to your own time feeling all of tune deepen all these lives I should have known that day but I was blind to change

Memory 03:00
In memory of family Someone that we can’t see Or a place that we can’t be Tears can’t define The things you can’t find on your way In memory of family Someone that we can’t see Or a place that we can’t be I heard an old friend say Eternity is just a heart beat away In memory
