Premium Member Row and Wait
was a rape at age fourteen
as the babies kept coming
with kitchen rods I flushed then down
and kept smiling for you to tell
thank you it lasted five years until I put my foot down...

Premium Member the order of the day
the most direct line to heaven ~ is to circumvent hell on the way 

but will they admit you ~ for seeing the devil and swerving away 

said the millionaire to his driver ~ who put his foot down anyway

looking back 
He should have just said no 
and put his foot down 
Why didn’t he stop at one mistake 
But instead he kept going when his answer was still no
One mistake down, another on the way 
He didn’t want them yet he stays 
Twenty years go by
The mistakes are grown and cared for
Now’s he has a chance to flee the seen
(Quick the mistakes aren’t looking)

Dear dad- Parker...

Trapped Soul
Lost soul trapped inside 
Terrified to get out
Stand up and say
What exactly you want

Listen to your heart
Recognize your strengths
Don't be held back
Find your happiness

You need to be at that point
Where you have a constant smile
With a sparkle in your eye
And your heart racing uncontrollably


Get what you want in life 
don't let anyone stand in the way
Put your foot down
Succeed in your wish...

On Your Own Ground
He unlocked his brakes
With tri-pod in place
Put his foot down
On his own ground..

With help from above
He stood on both feet
One step
Then two steps
It wasn't that steep..

From here
To there
Is what
He cared about
The most
How far
How close..

He controls 
His life on wheels
No one knows
How he feels..

Unlock your brakes
Put your feet down
Hold on tight
Stand up
On Your Own Ground.

The Gas Is Gone
The gas has gone, gasp,
walk, and walk fast 
the pump drips drops 
and the drops don't last 

what a bloody disaster, 
gotta run to go faster, 
hope your lungs still function 
or be dead in a casket

just put one foot down
move the other one passed it 
feel the nostalgia, remember it now, 
before you were a fat lazy bastard 

the days are so cold, 
now the heating's gone too 
put some clothes on 
stop walking around nude...

Kanjika: Some Lamentations 3
This is the first night

Dry flour is scattered
on the ground

She will come
she will come
she will put her foot down
she will go

We will sleep
we will sleep
even in grief we will sleep

She will see
she will see
she will never see us again

We will tear
we will tear
we will tear out our hair in the morning

She will stop
she will stop
halfway down the road she will stop

We will forget
we will forget
in this very grief we will forget...
