Butter 08:10
Listen up soldier tell me what do you know About the present moment and power of soul Did you get that? Staying on point can take take it's toll Point you in a direction When you're following your goal But never mind that now Did you get caught up in that violence So shitty They tell you how to be Then you try to get free Society Conform us to an image floating on a big screen Take off your jeans, your hat That's not really where it's at All night When you walk in the street light Do you know what it feels like Do be alive? Wait a minute sir I've got a few things to say Before you take me away I've been trying real, real hard Trying to get away from it To take it real far I see my potential in the sky But I just can't seem to reach it Every day I don't know why Can you help me out I want to get some credit For wanting to break out Wait just a minute Just a moment real quick It's an honor not to skip through the bullshit I gotta say don't give up your time True change comes when you keep an open mind Find other ways to make it right... All night When you walk in the street light Do you know what it feels like To be alive I remember that moment real clear The moment I was born The moment my soul came here That's right I remember how pure I was I could see things straight through the dust And I could live every day this way Got love for everybody So that I can do the sway And spread some butter all across the dead pan babay I grew up through school Learned my mind real good I learned of what we made in this neighborhood All the past and the reasons that we made for now And all the relevance of never making a sound I learned about it, I tried to fit in But now I got break out I want to be on top of it I wanna, I wanna be alive today...

Waves 04:41
I told you what I was looking for When I came up from the bathroom floor This life is never what it seems And I'm through with fantasy Never know where to go But I know I want to leave Free my soul, let it go For everyone in need In waves it's coming back to me Lying down upon my knees The making of my final plea Say it loud or keep my peace Get this one last sweet release Never know where to go But I know I want to lead Free my soul, let it go For everyone in need In waves it's coming back to me...

Whistle Song 09:09
I played all my life A circus on the water Good times, bad times They float into each other No it doesn't seem right But no one ever said this is goodbye Hold me and let go Don't forget that you are alive I worked all my life An empire over water Long time, lost time Reflections to recover No it doesn't seem right But no one ever said this is goodbye Hold me and let go Don't forget that you are alive All the wars inside my head The reason for my end And the rising sun depends On the darkness that I sleep in

The Fountain 04:00
Like a water Like a rain Like an oasis Or a desert spring You can hear the music Whispering Release the truth you feel you Had to keep contained Ancient mystics Are now simple and plain Obey the modern system On the borders of insane They were raped and pillaged By the son of a man Who made a burning village And a soul of sand Holding out in all this rain For tomorrow or today All the seasons fade away Older now and nothing's changed Saw a downtown preacher In search of fame Trying to be a teacher Of the common faith The truth is told by The look in his eye Does he really know it Or is it a disguise Holding out in all this rain For tomorrow or today All the seasons fade away Older now and nothing's changed Got to find the fountain Get back to the source again Climb the mountain Of the world within

Running through these empty halls Strung out of my mind Took too long to recognize Where the demon lies It looms behind these walls Entangling our hearts A ruined beast Beset by light Will see us torn apart On down that broad, broad road Lies the truth they never showed We tread These sterile toils Lamenting for our loss A kingdom bathed In amber glow Where life and passions cross We tread This barren stone Our hearts and minds ablaze With visions of The universe That lie outside the maze Without you I can't see me The stars have a hold of me They're ripping me Away from you Away from me Help We will succeed United we'll take back Our power to heal We'll carry the message We'll gather the masses We'll get them We'll get them
