Dragonwell: Wakan Tanka I ain’t gotta struggle Just glad that survival ain’t trouble Study sound analyze vibration Get home sip tea, sit for meditation Oh yeah the world’s so big The only thing to do is play the part we pick (x2) Yeah I wanna travel maybe study permaculture Spit plasma at the economic vultures Who couldn’t stop us in full bloom Cut through the hurricanes and the monsoons Redirect their forces to fuel our forests Plus find a fat cat and jack him for his fortress Yeah we want more it’s what my clan endorses Live light bright baby something like Horus That’s the part we choos to play man, what you wanna do today? Maybe build a better life for me and my community Word life. That’s big Only thing to do is play the part we live Oh yeah the world’s so big The only thing to do is play the part we pick (x2) It’s so big, but its all fluid Like qi through the air or breath through the body Never could these doors or walls cage the shaman brahman or angles To earth we send a message Just keep swimming baby, ha. Only difference between now and higher planes Is the frequency we carry in our souls and our brains Sippin’ Dragonwell tea fair trade I sit down and ease myself into the alpha state Uh, relax and ride on the wave Universes open to an inward gaze Outside time and outside of space When I come back I won’t be the same

Diggin’ Yo I’m diggin’ for truth, it’s uncouth Plus I’m workin’ to get ya to raise the roof Ain’t no spoof. This is real life I see my family dealin’ with real strife That’s why the light is so essential That’s why I produce these instrumentals Every outcome is consequential From the quasars down to the quantum level Real talk. We know what’s goin’ on We can feel it when we’re where we belong Feelin’ strong though the road is long Still we kill the time singin’ these songs To make the soul more whole and full As we’re walking along to meet our goals Seein’ strangers only in passin’ Still seekin’ to treat ‘em with compassion What a universe so marvelous and complex House parties at the same time as conquest Scholarships at the same time as bomb threats It’s not what happens it’s how we respond in context What a universe so marvelous and complex House parties at the same time as conquest Scholarships at the same time as bomb threats Oh, What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, marvelous creation I’m seekin’ to embrace even the great intimidation That arises when lookin’ up in your iris Knowin’ that we’re both gods like Osiris Capable of makin’ the gold like Midas As we’re openin’ up to the luminous and the vibrant Ain’t it true we’re here to grow brighter? If not, then why would we be passin’ through all of the fire? Why the pain and the hurt if not to be learnin’ the lessons? What’s it say if we’re constantly workin’ and stressin? I don’t but it. Not in the slightest. We’re looking for heaven sent betterment sending the best and the brightest You’re a highness, a god or a goddess Pieces of the same divine reside deep within all us Let’s get together. Why keep on waitin’? Don’t the heart insist we stop the separation? What a universe so marvelous and complex House parties at the same time as conquest Scholarships at the same time as bomb threats It’s not what happens it’s how we respond in context What a universe so marvelous and complex House parties at the same time as conquest Scholarships at the same time as bomb threats Oh, What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live What a universe, what a universe we live

In Time In time we’re told we grow and grow old Despite the eternal soul this body must go She had three children, the youngest is me Although I only knew her until I was three She gave me so much There’s nothing to a newborn like a mother’s touch I knew it once, but never again In time all things must come to an end But this seems early, far too hasty Who knew that 35 would be the end of my old lady? Not me. Nor my pa. Are these the types of things that we “leave up to God?” I still feel her presence Even though back then I was too young to get it I understand how, but really, how? Why’s the cure for cancer still underground? If one breaks through, will it be allowed? What do we have to do to keep our families around? There’s enough as it is, trying to raise kids Keepin food on the table and a warm place to live Why’d the help that we had never seem to do the trick? We can build atomic bombs, but we can’t cure the sick? Yeah right, and war is for peace. If we had what we needed, my mom wouldn’t be deceased. The cures exist but seem to slip Just beyond our fingertips In time we’re told we grow and grow old Despite the eternal soul this body must go I know you’re out there. I know you’re right here I’ll see you’re face in another light year Gotta make love as I fight fears Without ya help ma’ I wouldn’t be right here Thanks for that. I wish you were here to see me make this track But I know you feel it Through our connection Beyond the flesh, beyond even death Can’t be suppressed through space and time Love that we share is still shared through the divine Yeah, through our DNA The Sacred Circuit or the astral plane Science just might catch up one day But for not I still feel that I know you are safe A product of love, I’m an extension of you. I’m feelin’ so blessed to be the one that you moved From there to here, from above to below, I love you always and I choose to grow To be what I can be and carry the light Enter eternity knowing my life Was not in vain and through all the pain I moved even mountains with positive change You brought forth the flame so I shall not be tame In this body and time and this role that I play I’m always with you and you’re always with me I’m always with you and you’re always with me And in time we’re told We grow and grow old Despite the eternal soul This body must go And in time we’re told We grow and grow old Despite the eternal soul This body must go But that’s how life flows And deep down we know This life is not of this Body but soul -Pojo The Idealist

Foot In The Ocean I usually don’t do this but it is a nuisance when seekin the truest and findin the bluest and havin’ the mayhem of sinister mayors and Loosin’ your footing to black market traders and Gettin’ your pacemaker stuck in the midst of the madness What this world needs now is not found in material Sex, money, drugs, that just gets you venereal Disease and these seas are dying and dimming And all I see is the sea stagnant, not swimming And still they keep fishing and I am just wishing That next time you get paid you’ll think of the killing And spilling of blood just to pay for the yachts And all that you have while others have not Anything And all that you have while others have not Everyone Got my car stolen and figured its hopeless And probably better is suited for the homeless Anything Kept the heart open then found ways to cope and then Looked to my brothers who never had no chance for Love or a slow dance or savin the moments or listenin to Otis Or thinkin bout motives or showin’ emotion or lovin eloping Or those who will never step foot in the ocean Anything What this world needs now is not found in material Sex, money, drugs, that just gets you venereal Disease and these seas are dying and dimming And all I see is the sea stagnant, not swimming And still they keep fishing and I am just wishing That next time you get paid you’ll think of the killing And spilling of blood just to pay for the yachts And all that you have while others have not Anything And all that you have while others have not Everyone We lose a lot. Who’d of thought Taken by thieves who just knew the law Ruthless mobs, suits and ties. Mitakuye Oyasin let’s see through the lies To devise a paradigm where we can shine unquantified That’s without limits and we can exhibit it Trust your divinity, they can't inhibit it. Indigo children its our time to shine Remember that naturally we’re unconfined Leaving the bankers and armies behind Up to the top of the mountain we climb Peace in the body and peace in the mind Gardens to cultivate, no time for swine Up on cloud nine feelin so fine Strengthen the body and straighten the spine Once we have enough its time to give back And if we still hold on then just know that it’s wack And that I will not help you when you are attacked Because there are so many with so much they lack Once we have enough its time to give back Anything Once we have enough its time to give back What this world needs now is not found in material Sex, money, drugs, that just gets you venereal Disease and these seas are dying and dimming And all I see is the sea stagnant, not swimming And still they keep fishing and I am just wishing That next time you get paid you’ll think of the killing And spilling of blood just to pay for the yachts And all that you have while others have not Anything And all that you have while others have not Everyone

Catch The Vibe Get it goin’ and I get the feet pacin’ Rock the mic just for love and creation That’s my people and time and any nation Mind is cool but the heart stays blazin’ Keep on workin’ even when my body’s achin’ Makin’ goals playin’ shows and beat breakin’ Time for action got the passion I’m embracin’ Live my life as history in the makin’ Couldn’t be mendin’ the wound I’m tearin’ the top of the track Bringin’ it down killin’ it with the illest of the raps Better be movin’ from your toes up to your hair To the bass and the snare put yo hands up in the air Put yo hands up, you’ll catch the vibe (x8) Kick a flow more fluid than the meltin’ ice caps Like euro or burrito I got nice raps Hippies love me like a tie-dye bike rack I love them because they bring the love and light back Gettin’ together we transcend instead of fight back Pickin’ fruit as we be movin’ on the right track Wakin’ up the light erupts I got my sight back Made a couple changes and that’s how I got my life back Like some solar panels I’m tryna get free energy Wipin’ away all the old and the wack to form a bright century Open the mind and open the heart emotionally and mentally Feels kinda good baby and that’s how it was meant to be Put yo hands up, you’ll catch the vibe (x8)

Outer Space (ft. Teo Blake) (T) It’s the lonely road walker, no time to jock her Shootin’ for the starts and we hit ‘em like *blaka* Rock a smile in the darkest of times Mama used to think he was lost in the mind Now I’m a savant when it comes to goin’ dumb Ghost gon’ haunt but ain’t no need to run Hot cup of coffee in the mornin’ sun Think I’ll get another chance, baby come and do yo’ dance (P) Baby come and do yo’dance, move into a fluid trance Dreamin’ way to big and vivid just to leave it up to chance Stayin’ focus like Confucius wrote this Speakin’ with the cosmos sippin’ tea in full lotus (T) Dopeness, mastery of magic, no hocus pocus Yeah, It’s a blessing and a curse Wouldn’t have it all if I didn’t loose it first My god, takin’ them to church (T & P) All my people in the place, hands up, outer space Hands up, outerspace, hands up, outer space All my people in the place, hands up, outer space Hands up, outerspace, hands up, outer space All my people in the place, hands up, outer space Hands up, outerspace, hands up, outer space All my people in the place, hands up, outer space Hands up, outerspace, hands up, outer space Oh oh oh let’s go oh oh oh let’s go (P) Yearnin’ pleadin’ askin, Draw of the passion, law of attraction Yeah I saw what happened When I stopped wastin’ time and started actin’ (go!)

Home My friend here’s the truth: it’s never endin’ We’re growin’ every moment through success or depression Here to learn I’m here for a lesson Mountain top and beyond, stay questin’ Full of questions for the star stuff When I’m at the end, will I have gone far enough? How can I know? I wanna feel it in my chest, my body and soul Man I gotta go Until I meet my purpose I won’t feel whole Even if my cup’s already full I still have dreams and I still have goals I wanna wake in a world I attracted Through honest persistence, integrity, and passion A breath called life, A house called home, a work called light I I’ve seen a place A place I know is home I I’ve seen a place A place I know is home Patience I’m tryin’ not to hurry Each step is a part of the journey Work late, get up early The body’s of the earth, but the spirit’s otherworldly And that’s what driving Sense and respond, achieve without striving Alive and forgetting ‘bout boundaries At One with everything around me Ego break away Day by day Moment by moment We built it in our mind, every line we wrote it Largely unconscious Doing what we can to connect with the Cosmic While staying right here Showing that love can overcome fear I I’ve seen a place A place I know is home I I’ve seen a place A place I know is home Now this fire in my chest I cannot deny The qi fills me up from the earth to the sky Better live truth better to not live a lie Here for a reason, do more than try Victory through the dedicated work Focus labor and the fruits will emerge Universal law within your bones No state, no king, no thrones The gods and the guides will hear when we call Meet ‘em half way and get ready to see all Glow, unfold, even grow and change Pull with the soul ‘til you know your name Open the doors with the blow of the flame Go to your goals ‘til they show your aim No one can hold you to slow your pace See golden and glorious opening gates Ready for your entrance when you arrive Moment by moment and time after time Grow stronger connect and thrive This is our life baby this is our time Dig deep feel aspiration Put in work, manifestation I’ve seen a world I want to know It came from inside a place called home

Boondocks Big mist, thick fog One machine, many cogs On cycle, check ya vital Why’s my generation so suicidal? Pop a pill. “Sniff this.” “Sip this.” Now I’m seeing thick mist. Haze for days. Spirits wane, Loss of life, regret and shame, Passion snuffed, the loss of flame, Ambivalence fit in the pit of the brain Zoned out comatose condition We’re getting faded while they’re building prisons. Zoned out comatose condition We’re getting faded while they’re building prisons. Well, in these times of trouble Where do we go? Like this y'all, like that y'all. Like this y'all, like that. The plot thickens ‘til it’s viscous. Private prison profit’s vicious. Jail revenue to private interests Wicked warlocks warring princes Poverty strikes the way that a whip hits Economic slavery is fueling big business Lake Travis, six figure digits East side children rife with sickness How we gonna work to get out of this sick mix If our mind’s always on the blunt’s lit tip? How will freedom for our people ever exist If we don’t cultivate mental fitness? Zoned out comatose condition We’re getting faded while they’re building prisons. Zoned out comatose condition We’re getting faded while they’re building prisons. Well, in these times of trouble Where do we go? Like this y'all, like that y'all. Like this y'all, like that. Hard to face it, we’re not all gonna make it Life is demanding, not everyone can take it. Hateful state, cops that are racist I saw my brother’s tears when his friend got wasted. Universe, it gets real. I can’t even imagine how his family feels. Yo, these are real life people. Even in Austin, humans aren’t equal. Why we struggling’ pay check to pay check? Why can’t we build a world that hasn’t been made yet? Where we gonna start if not right here? Who better than us to bring light to fear? Zoned out comatose condition We’re getting faded while they’re building prisons. Zoned out comatose condition We’re getting faded while they’re building prisons. Well, in these times of trouble Where do we go?

Love No, it don't make no sense Living life in fear and stress My friends we see greedy and the arrogant Businessmen and politicians heartless and nefarious Uh yeah bankers you can barely trust Institutions instigating thievery not sparing us Uh so scandalous I'm lookin to chill sandals just Walking on the beach rockin to the beat But all I see is Molotovs tossed into the street Worldwide wars all the time Wars on your mind, wars on your kind Wars on your pine wars on rewind We repeating ourselves line after line Tryin climb towards the universal shine but we've We've seen crushed dreams where the burnt bodies lie So called leaders through their teeth speak lies But deep down we feel our people need light No, it don't make no sense Living life in fear and stress No, it don't make no sense Living life in fear and stress Uh yo there's gotta be a better way This rat race isn't adequate there's gotta be a better game Uh yeah I calm my mind and meditate Cultivate tranquility and ease into a steady state Uh yeah first I breathe Feel more whole body at ease Begin slow to breathe in deep Even with the entropy that's all around me Feel life flow slow through me Sense a warm glow and here I'm free Two eyes closed so the third eye sees As I search my soul for the wisdom I need Call to the stars, "Hear my plea. Send insight through the starry sea." It's bigger than the woes and comforts me Showin' the best way we can proceed Cuz Hey no, It don't make no sense Living life in fear and stress It don't make no sense Living life in fear and stress We've never been complacent. We're all about the changin Shakin the foundation from the bedrock to the basement We're working, waiting, growing and creating Keepin up pace with the powerfully amazing You're beautiful and making the process of awakening Ever more incredible as we arrive the breaking Point to tomorrow the future were embracing Elevating everyone instead of falling waning Down to demise we arise like greatness Bringing both together the cutting edge and ancient The path to our paradise I know that we can make it But fear and stress ain't never gonna shape it! So, Time to get up got no time for these wack fiends Shake em off like wakin from a bad dream Never eatin no shit BS fasting Elevate the spirit when I'm seekin the enchanting Uh yes, like a deep fresh breath. Ease that stress and I see I'm blessed. With food, a fresh home, ten fingers ten toes, An aura that I let glow and a couple of the best flows Stay bathin' in the sunlight Soak in some more beauty you can feel it when it's done right Open up let the tension unwind Stayin in the present I create the path of one life Here's to hopin that I walk the way of harmony Even if from time to time it is so hard to see Yes, I know you're all a part of me I'm just tryna love deep and laugh heartily Yes, open to what the heart can be Build the inner honesty and begin to start walkin free Keep my soul evolving, realize a stronger me Really I just wanna see a world where we can all be free Yes, free of the monopolies Artificial scarcity and widespread poverty Yeah, plus our own despondency I'm Dreamin up a place where we can chill over a spot of tea Share ideas as we eat organic collars greens Fresh fruit plus a side of Anasazi beans Calm nerves conversing consciously Cultivating our compassionate philosophy

Summer Nights Universe, stars in the sky Show me through another summer night So nice flowing to the moonlight Feeling too blessed to give up this life All good, all fluid Keep it open, keep it groovin’ Keep on movin’ like the rollin’ ocean We the star people, all of us So toss em up, hands in the air Whether solo or with mass fanfair You the light. You the truth Ain’t no one who can do what you do In exactly the way you do it So come on keep cruisin‘ it’s all fluid Like water, straight from the spring, You divine, a king or a queen Universe, stars in the sky Show me through another summer night So nice flowing to the moonlight Feeling too blessed to give up this life You’re divine. You’re a king. Every woman, every girl is a queen Every human on this planet has a dream How on earth you think the caged bird sings? Deep passion, quiet aspiration Steady walking just to meet the destination Affinity coupled with inclination Hard work following inspiration On earth with a fierce dedication Bringin’ soul through the living meditation Liftin’ up with the livid presentation Luminous through the lovin’ transformation That’s right filled to the brim With the galaxies found within Microcosmic, all connected Universal, never endin’ Universe, stars in the sky Show me through another summer night So nice flowing to the moonlight Feeling too blessed to give up this life
