Picture Me Rollin'

Worked on mixing sound textures and

tried to re-format lyrics to a new beat (not working)

I remember when I didn't know how hip-hop beats were produced. At one point this was as mysterious to me, as childbirth is to a 5 year old. I grew up right before the world wide web, I was a teenager by the time it started calling itself, the internet. It wasn't the information network it is today, the idea was there but the reach had yet to exceed its grasp. So when I listened to a Dr. Dre instrumental and tried to figure out how it was made, I didn't have youtube MPC tutorials or wikipedia entries about samplers, synths, and drum machines--I wasn't into magazines (or more to the point, my empty wallet wasn't into magazines) and I didn't have any friends who made beats. So like that 5 year old kid, that sits with chin in fist at the street curb wondering where babies came from, I simply relied on my imagination.

Act V Song Lyrics

ACT V


In the case that this advent is horizon to the storm

allow me proudly fist to spend while I open doors

in the case that my only anchor to grace is forced

early extinction when permission is the bastard of a whore...


take her from me, watch the color exit earth,

sky above me drench in dirt, trust the hover of hatred when it bursts

aboard heart, minus life from her breast--much confess do i

peace without she is nevermore

good sir, you've managed too well to find her

spread your venom dancing but good sir

she's hell to vanish, a survivor form

definition of a silhouette, the interest

of each drum beat my cardiac machine is kicking for

and all hopes in the most her will provides to kick you

in the throat and distance between your hands and her life will grow

grow...grow...like new earth as a grave for you good sir

as she's preserved and she'll breathe as you won't


if i have two and you have one

then you have two and a third

just in case something happens to the first

just continue breathing

and i'll do anything you need

i'll do everything you need


lung! lung! my kingdom for a lung

lung! lung! my kingdom for a lung


watch as the moon takes the night, youth in shade

plots that consume parlour of plight loops in place

no use fretting as a flight freight chapter

in charter captured misery's default setting

and its ever sound, this twilight broken brook

i took from her lips, a love, and among all its compounds

a prism to bend a head from shrouds

take her from me--it must be why capsules

taught me how to drown


there's a fire in the day, never so fair

immense desire, i'd kill a million christs

for one strand of her hair

an empire as a trade, my queen of spades

i'll take ten ozones for her life

in the case that this advent is horizon to the storm

a room shuts with her and opens nevermore

Cambrian Dive Song Lyrics

CAMBRIAN DIVE


I sat on a fire escape under a sheet of static clouds

that did but choke and sparks of electric phlegm did approach

and spoke did they with aim to listen a gather awake

a cancer of shake ran its branch fingers of plasma

upon a stroke of heart ache

like the sudden snap of dagger from sheath

a wink of light blew a kiss--we drew the lips close

when this fire grew to width that smoke

became air became stones to breathe; there, no time can be

defined by speed a fair fear

farther sped and garnered each ear in despair

each eye a leech sucking the view by heaps of Mercurian leaps

the curious creep to the light and reach


a new new forever an old cold bold successor to now

design it over make it colder make every last silence a sound

don't tell me you can't see it above us ain't it presently beautiful

cambrian prime for me and you, for me and you


cambrian prime for me and you...

a wedding and a funeral...


and when the first drop lands, announced by thunder with proud roars

with palms of hands we await the taste like fate's connoisseurs

deluge advance, breaking our windows and yawning our doors

you've made us dance, from fossils of us distant future explore

tell me the flavor we never were neighbors

its weighing in acres when date...

later remakes us through accents of paper

and mute translators mistake...

our passion for pleasure our labor for leisure

our jesters for teachers and no one alive to cure your amnesia

mother athena preserve us in your blade


when the first drop lands...

Lady Supernova's Lover Song Lyrics

LADY SUPERNOVA'S LOVER


She lets me sing my song even mumbles along but the lyric is just one word,

"boom..."

She dresses me, impressed when she smiles and sees I'm

doomed...


Wakes up to dusty rain gust, glittery spray rust,

powder that makes lungs anxious breathing

as he fuels it with stained love.

His lungs: rustoleum red, rustoleum read on atmosphere canvas.

Canvass surveillance that nobody sweats he signs, in hand print.

Phobia Falcon cauldron browsing Atlas for Crimson Badges.

Occupies time keeping his hands dry in the drowned hearts of Atlantis.

Phantom! He's a sunset with a heartbeat and a huntress

with an army silhouette attached to arteries

assigned to detonate in his chest.

In his last breath, so he's gone far; millipeding his steps,

never repeating attempts, ever just feeding his strengths;

ever just biding his time, opportuning design when Today provides

her voice/his name the bright song along the explosion left behind.


"T'was moon tide of summer, at mid-time of night

and stars in their orbits shone pale thru the light--

the brighter cold moon; mid-planets, her slaves

herself in the heavens, her beam on the waves"

(-EAP)


City of statue citizen in canceled subscription to capsule submission,

a classroom of ash and a laser in fashion

attached to subtraction of life from the caption.

Lung in adaption of love and compassion,

she's proud of me now I'm a gallon of acid in radiated ration,

twisting her smile so bright and so loud she's singing.

Clouds fall to the ground, dragging the sewer,

flash-flooding Obscure; angelic metallic replaces organic.

The trees, they all choke! Air becomes fewer...

Oceans evaporate open to propagate casket for planet.

I drop and break, landing on a bed of dead fish

and sunset electric in a reservoir pageant...


...Of a beautiful glass. I'm in the iceberg of her eye

and she kisses me in between space and time;

new dimension walks on, my heart perfectly fits

in her mouth the way she likes; with one word we unite...

Good Saturday

Spent most of the day with Mini till she bounced, at which point after a few random pictures I went home and wrote a song. Can't think of a title yet. But it fits with my idea for an album about people and their behaviors.


On another note, I finished up the instrumental for an older song that I want to record and release soon.
