A step forward, even in total darkness feels right…
it is, taking a glimpse without sight, Farout !!
Expressing how I feel for myself, that’s the forecast.
I could pick apart whole world,
with my head in the clouds living in a lofty haze.

A Familiar voice fills me with joy.
Everything is cool once you’ve
convinced yourself that there are no
repercussions…
On occasion I’d exercised this way of life..
it was chaotic to say the very least.
Removing the things that don’t serve me a
purpose.

“why do I destroy myself?
l am only doing what they used to do
I am a culmination of generations”
One & three on the left side and the fourth a silver ring.

A space dream In ambient motion,
cutting through my mind cloud.

On a journey to discover
what I truly desire from my

Self doubt and the reckoning,
slowly breaking out of the old shell.

“Picture my house in a postcard Town
Picture a bomb in the sky
History at your door who could ask for more”
Inspiration breeds art
A star that appears to be six feet beneath the
moon
is still light years away.

Blood in my eyes,
the salt in these tears may heal these wounds,
did the fear ever serve me a purpose?
Transcending the words that’s kept me in a curse.
“This faith is all I have”

The ghost in the park.
To live in the past is such a disservice.

An amalgamation of emotion, passing through…
dark & light, intensity within.
A Paragon of Virtue,
Hiding beneath the surface, Floating out in space.

Shadow boxing in a crater on the moon,
Self work begins..
Change is inevitable, readjustment is the key.

Break out, Smash out of your ways.
Sometimes the hardest thing to do is face yourself
after a long time living so far removed.

I used to hide beneath the surface
The truth sips wine and begets the purpose
I’m not the man that I was yesterday
He’d die at the edge of my blade
The cure for me was two whole days
On a desert road
Made a deal with myself
The truth sips wine and becomes the fear
An unfamiliar air
Drown you in despair
I tried to reach out my hand to you
they try to make us feel like
There’s not enough room
We’re molding in time & morbid entirely
Won’t wanna waste away waiting in eternity
With my eyes wide shut
I can barely see that
We’re moving
I took my meds and I went to bed
Soul lay on his bed hanging out on
the riverside
I missed the bus but I took the train
I’ve always known who I am
I’ll find my way home
Sometimes if feels like I’m floating out in space
Running out of oxygen.

“& suddenly the lights went on”.
I wish I could eat the pain away
Devour until there’s nothing left
I wish we could take a little time off
Truly discover, just who we are
Oh I wish I could further things
And tell you it’s something out there
For you & I
“Cut off times”
I don’t know what I’m looking for but I know when
it’ll rain.

Thirst.
Physical fear.
High up, it’s decided.

Moments of realization make me cry.

A token bearing all my shit
Hoping I can forgive myself.

How ironic, the walls of glass… the screeching
silence
Never thought I’d be a part of the scene,
be seen in between… the obscene.

Nothing is easier than giving up, whatever i do…
I’ll never do that.

The routine is a heart beat that resonates
with the music that is the universe.
You don’t know me
I’m from the third world
You don’t know me
I’m from the third world
You have no desire for me
I’m from the third world
You have no desire for me
I’m from the third world
Does your sun shine brighter than mine?
I’m from the third world
It’s clear that You don’t know me.

Can’t drown them out.
Can’t escape them.
Constantly there.

I’d kiss the bottom of the earth
An ornament to my low self esteem
I’m trying to build myself anew
You broke the fourth wall
And you’re now in my head
I deserve too, I desire to your
Give it all to yourself, if you live and you learn.
Was it all that I had?
Discrepancies amok in my bed
I’m trotting up to sober but I’m still tossing in bed
I can now see I’ve been sad, sitting over my pain
When everything I say goes over my head
Try to reconnect the dots and make it out of here
Its a rat race, some sort of maze
I fear the coldness
Hear it bumping and pumping through my veins
& it’s caught in my illusion, intrusion!
the conclusion is nobody’s safe
I can’t keep them smooth without the dent in our res
I’ve got sweat in my hair and my rent hasn’t been
paid.

There are reasons it couldn’t have been
You’d terrorize the world out of fear
I feared looking in my mother’s eyes.

The serpent grew feet now he’s on his way
I need your respect before I do my bed

Has my mind gone MIA?
A little intake will relive my headache
“You’ve got rough hands
you’ve been working your whole life “
Next thing you know I couldn’t face the surface.

Who ever knows the way to your heart
I wish them well
If it’s the both of us
We can always take the train home
You can miss the bus
We can take the train home
You can build your wall
You can close your mouth
You can be so quiet that the…
No one would ever hear when
you cried aloud in the…
Back to the stars & you need his love again so
you find yourself in the bottom again
Thinking of yourself baby
Tried so hard maybe, love yourself enough
Who’s next to you ?
Look around, Look Around.

Heard your voice on the radio
Driving back to Roodepoort
And time heals all your wounds
So don’t be severed
In the backseat of your friend’s car
That limitless confusion
awaits at the border
You’re making me tired
Heard your voice on the radio
All the way in Liverpool
And time would stand still
When you are not here
As I lay there in silence
That quietness of violence
awaits at the border
You’re making me tired.
As I rest my head on the mountainside
With no warning
The bomb fell, it really did!
They say the world was burning
As I lay my head on the ocean bed
I can feel the tide turning
A flower blooms in a really dark room
You were my hero and my best friend
We used to be one and the same
But now my hero’s gone and left me here
To play this wicked game
I read the paper today
Am I living in a western World ?
Cause my idle mind would idolize
About the fancy clothes and the flashing lights
But never work a single day in my fucking life.

You’re only just starting to live.
You’ve been alive the whole time.
Floating out in space, running out of oxygen.

It caught me by surprise
What more can a man take
Enough is enough my love
I chew up my words and spit em right at your face
No plate no case
Enough is enough my love
By the power invested in you
Break out of your shell
Industrial poetry on the wall
This town has always had a bone to pick.

I might’ve missed the bus but I took the train.
Nothing changes the fact that I’m heading home,
all I have to do is keep moving.
