I see the world through the bent Plastic of my helmet each day That explains why I see everything In such a warped way Oh say can you fly? By the dawn's early light Or the cold moonshine? Pray that you don't die If you bloast you'll be toast If you let your focus coast I've sharpened up those skills but Still I gotta count on some luck Eyes in back of my head Screaming, in a full tuck Oh say can you fly? With a twist of the wrist Punching forward like a fist Pray that you don't die If you bloast you'll be toast If you let your focus coast It's urban warfare of a Multi vehicular degree That's the price you gotta pay to Feel like you're free Oh say can you fly? As you dice with the mice In the race of your lives Pray that you don't die If you bloast you'll be toast If you let your focus coast solo-Ed Bloast past the problematic situations Found on your way Click down two gears and it's C-Ya Have a nice day Pray that you don't die If you bloast you'll be toast If you let your focus coast

Going into transition Upheaval by the ton is going on Part of life's composition I'm scared, I'm psyched I'm bound for abandon Turn the corners of life Dive headfirst just to find Reasonable thought flies Out The Window Yeah, there's no easy answers To dealing with a major change in life But some solutions Reveal themselves Across the course of time We all go through it Sooner or later matters not But constant calm is Sure to end at some point, it's our lot Turn the corners of life Dive headfirst just to find Reasonable thought flies Out The Window solo-Ed Wish you knew the future? The good, the bad, the ugly Do you dare? Despite what you think You never could properly prepare Cause once it gets here Shock takes hold and spins you like a top You cannot see straight Until your whirling world decides to stop Turn the corners of life Dive headfirst just to find Reasonable thought flies Out The Window

They're gonna win most popular forever Vote or award does it even matter? The politician or actress Such a mess Who is who? Cause I can't tell the difference So what's the poor boy to do? Except be sick of you In total obfuscation, this damn nation Starstruck, stripped of our stripes In total obfuscation, this damn nation Dumbstruck guttersnipes The camera loves their every grin Such a sin Beat the drums till The whole country wakes up That'd be a wonderous, thunderous day Dream away We're enraptured Captured by the linelight So what's the poor boy to do? Except be sick of you In total obfuscation, this damn nation Starstruck, stripped of our stripes In total obfuscation, this damn nation Dumbstruck guttersnipes solo-Ed They get away with murdering In vain I sing With stupid smiles We'll grant THEM all a pardon So what's the poor boy to do? Except be sick of you In total obfuscation, this damn nation Starstruck, stripped of our stripes In total obfuscation, this damn nation Dumbstruck guttersnipes

We're all in this fight together So small are the minds That try to keep us far apart Still individuals Divided we shall fall Not out to destroy uniqueness Of race or religion Or your own completeness Common denominators Multi racial and multi cultural It's gone on for too long Racism's sacred song Absorbed, part of the sum And sum of the parts Beats the sum of none We tolerate it They cash the checks But the day that we get together They fear from one to the next solo-Ed Oh God, shine a revelation Grant us a unified civilization I just wish that all of us could Wake up to the lies we just accept As truths each day It's gone on for too long Racism's sacred song Absorbed, part of the sum And sum of the parts Beats the sum of none

You'll get over it That's bullshit Seen it for myself It wears you down and won't quit Forging straight ahead Stopped dead Like a deer caught in the headlights Enough said Shift command Escape the program, restore Functionality Recover once more Watched it turn a man By his own hand Into someone I can Barely understand Zapped his will to be Lost his partner, now he's half Of what he used to be Confront the things unimagined And prepare, but it's impossible I just hope you can Land on your feet When death come calling On the ones you love He's gotta fill the void Paranoid To live alone A fate he surely cannot avoid Time is running out Without a doubt Wish I knew a way to figure it all out Shift command Escape the program, restore Functionality, recover once more

Sometimes the conflict's enough to break us Make us all throw the towel in But at the end of the day it empowers And shows the strength within Low in this labor of love lurks heartache Despite the best laid plans It'd end up being a useless mistake To turn our backs on this band Stressfest, heading in headlong I'm right, you're wrong But still we get along Rest stop, everybody out The bouts, the doubts We just can't live without In the stressfest Yeah, I could find better thing to do with Such short spare time But there's a ghost and he'd Hang there haunting He'd wear me down over time But in the pit of my very being To old ways I'd revert Because the beauty is in the seeing The big picture's worth Stressfest, heading in headlong I'm right, headstrong But still we get along Stressfest, heading in headlong I'm right, you're wrong But still we get along Rest stop, everybody out The bouts, the doubts We just can't live without

Twelve years ago in 2023 Overpopulation, Warring nations Devastation brought upon ourselves Chemically Total human extinction-Infectious cloud of doom Nullification of creation This is no hallucination Earth: Android's heirloom The Biocaust: Humanity's lost Into the damned inferno we are all tossed Android sentience-Computing logically Clone the DNA before decay Does take away The chance to save mankind Some disagree A.I. in conflict, Robo-debate ensues Why reanimate that which creates Yet decimates itself with hate? It can't deserve to rule The Biocaust: Humanity's lost Into the damned inferno we are all tossed The Biocaust: Humanity's loss Into the damned inferno-Nailed to our cross Covert resurrection experiments ensue Giving man a helping hand A risky plan full of demands Evade the scans and see it through From a chain into humans One of each gender turns Now to educate, repopulate And illustrate the deadly fate And hope the new breed learns The Biocaust: Humanity's lost Into the damned inferno we are all tossed The Biocaust: Humanity's loss Given a second chance Was it worth the cost?

All that I can say is, "Just find a way to Grasp the rungs and climb on board" The train is pulling out and There is no doubt that Waiting you cannot afford This I know That yesterday the future seemed far away But now it's my face, in the flesh today Take a look around you Don't it astound you? Short term thinking minds galore Sure ya gotta earn it Before you burn it But work a dead end job what for? This I know Cause I was on that treadmill and man it sucks A chase after my tail in the guise of bucks Grind away, every day like a slave Same old same, work your way to the grave It's a miracle that you can even Save it for a bright day They all rain you say Try to objectively The cycle just continues Have, have not issues Fuel negativity This I know A sink or swim solution I call my job It keeps me on my toes, not a worthless slob Grind away, every day like a slave Same old same, work your way to the grave And besides it's so much fun to complain Working straight commission I'm a mission Never any guarantees Scratch out an existence, rugged resistance To mindless mass mentalities This I know

He's fooled himself for now Momentary clarity clown I'm the one Who went and Got his life on track Chosen one Time to kick back And take it easy One step up, two back down Momentary clarity clown I'm the one The fool who hides From his own self Overrun by the fear of Looking in the mirror He's deaf to sensible sound Momentary clarity clown For a second he knows That he has to let it go Logic dictates the lows That he's soon certain to know I'm the one Who went and Got his life derailed Chosen one For a self medicating lifestyle I've worn that jester's crown Momentary clarity clown

The sunshine has a special glow In California One you have to see to truly know In California There's transplant from across the fruited plain Soul searchers, They alone know their way They're gonna race around and chase 'em down The dreams they've always had Without a boast they'd raise a toast To all the "friends" who thought them mad It's gonna reach out and pull you in Take you places you've not been So if you head out, just take along This California Song You gotta concentrate and strangulate Outside forces' goal A change of pace, a change of face Start playing your own role It's gonna reach out and pull you in Take you places you've not been So if you head out, just take along This California Song To each his own is how it's gotta be Through your own eyes Is the only way to see It's gonna reach out and pull you in Take you places you've not been So if you head out, just take along This California Song It's not that you can't build a future Where you already live But when you move away, I gotta say It gives you perspective It's gonna reach out and pull you in Take you places you've not been So if you head out, just take along Your California Song

Well I've been up, I've been down Treading water I'm now found Keeping my head just above The antithesis of love Yes, I've been lost now I find It's a struggle to be kind We would without what lies within Twist and break At the whim of the wind And we're not getting any younger That's why I stop, gotta go Hit the road, I'm out the door Cause life's just wasting away Chasing time day after day So live it up while it lasts Hurry up it's moving fast Should really get hip to this Sometimes ignorance Is light years from bliss Life is stop and go Traffic, stop and go Life is stop and go The more I learn the less I know how to stop Ride the brake right to the top It's all about patience And of thinking first for once Still some finagle their way How they do it I can't say Against all odds they prevail Should be capsizing But they're setting sail

They're everywhere Do beware Your dreamlike state Soon crumbles Into nightmare To Bad Vibrations You've got to tune in And keep a safe distance Or fall in The signs are there to see but Most choose see what they want All those Bad Vibrations They're seeking you out They're destined to learn Your whereabouts We blind ourselves With our desires Can't tell the trustworthy From liars And wander down The path to ruin Can only blame yourself You fool So keep an ear Tight to the ground They proliferate all around Invite them in They'll drag you down So know their face And turn around The Bad Vibrations Should clue you in To the potential problems Lying within
