Reincarnation

the sun shines down
the rays heat up
the water pours into the bottomless cup
the palm tree leans
the leaves sway in the wind
the hopeful coconuts are pinned
the wave comes crashing over
the palm tree disappears
the tree's worst fears
the shadow dissipates
the coconuts float and spread
the palm tree is never dead
the coconuts find land
the sand buries the seed
the sun and water feeds its need
the tree begins to grow
the tree's past life is unknown
the new coconuts set the tone
the wave comes crashing over
the palm tree disappears
the tree's worst fears

Tobacco

Stimulate my acetylcholine
Dry the leaves and smoke my tabacum
Excite my neruons and produce stimulation
Pass the nicotine through my blood
Create that intense effect
Get my heart pumping
Raise my blood pressure
Relax my muscles
Suppress my appetite
Increase fast-wave patterns
Wake me up and let me think
Bring my low mood up high
Yet Smoking kills
It's all cheap thrills
That cost you quite the buck
You lose and you're out of luck
So to put it simply, quit!
Don't let another one become lit

Caffeine

All I want is more energy
To get my blood flowin
To the brain and all around
Improve my cognitive effect
Reaction time, attention, and memory
Increase my concentration
Let tolerance never exist
So I will not withdraw
Throw away overstimulation
I don't want to be a zombie
My heart can't beat any faster
A state of delirium has risen

Something New

i was walking down the street
looking at my feet
when i noticed something new
out of the blue
i rose my head to the sky
to an infinite high
when i noticed something new
out of the blue
i was tappin to a beat
after taking a seat
when i noticed something new
out of the blue
i was swimming in the ocean
and i felt the locomotion
when i noticed something new
out of the blue

The Castle

It seems time has passed since I've dropped a line
I've checked my pulse and I'm doing just fine.
sitting back and contemplating just how to achieve
how to describe my ideas and allow them to breathe
i look at the world and see this big castle.
i see all my goals becoming too difficult to tackle.
but i don't stand afar and i walk up real close,
to see which part of the castle that i like the most.
there's great architecture with a paint job so smooth
There's outstanding woodwork made of impeccable grooves.
All of this is so pretty but just won't suit my taste.
The most beautiful parts are just hiding the waste.
But I found what I like. A little tiny sliver.
I found it one day whilst following the river.
A tiny red door that most do not see.
There's no cover charge and entrance is free.
And that is how I get to see whats inside.
All that garbage i told you that they try to hide.
I see all the workings and how the gears turn.
I see sometime soon this Castle will burn.

Clock Radio

I had this dream last night
Maybe it was fantasy
At least if the timing was right
And you didn't ignore me

We were preparing for school
There were texts in our hands
But our halls were the beach
And the sails were our labs

You threw me a look
Was in anger or lustful?
I couldn't tell if you knew
How much that I wanted

And then I heard the alarm
Coming from my radio
It sang to my fears
Of being left alone

I wish you'd be more like a song
And less like our math class
And that you'd pull on my hair
And bite me like that
Just like Conor said

In my dream you were cold
And I was still yearning
You spent your time far away
Couldn't see I was burning

No you wouldn't come over
Or spend any time with me
My sails had gone luffed
And my book bindings breaking

What kind of a nightmare
Was my dream turning into?
I knew you didn't want me
But I felt I could win you

And then I heard the alarm
Coming from my radio
It sang to my fears
Of being left alone

I wish you'd be more like a song
And less like our math class
And that you'd pull on my hair
And bite me like that
Just like Conor said

Knowledge is power

every day is exactly the same
all you've got is a name
learn new things to switch it up
have knowledge pour out of your cup
teach others what you have learned
in the process a great thing is earned
journey to new places and reach new heights
face your fears to devour your frights
you maybe young or you may be old
but its never to late to do something bold
share what you can give to others
the world will unite as sisters and brothers
