CRAVINGS Featuring Jacklyn Duncan Craving all your innocence how one could live for days like this well I've been memorizing patterns compromising my existence Living just to stay distracted To survive our reenactment Mimic scenes to be recalled pretend to be an individual Outwardly effortless I'm well versed in your parlor tricks but I cannot go on like this I can not go on in bliss through history we've left our mark the problem is it smells like tar the problem is it fuels the car the problem is the problem is Maybe it's the way that we communicate Are we inherently selfish, inbred, or agitated While we're founded and surrounded here by white supremacy all the people who can change things are the ones that fail to see Are we the offspring of the most violent rapist of the time because back then the biggest assholes were the ones that could survive Or so they say or so they shout it out a car at me when I walk down the street guess I'll just shake my fists and vow to avenge my own murderous ancestry. Ugh. And so they say don't you know That's the way that it goes Solutions are evasive from the lackadaisical equation some become complacent Clean the cobwebs from the basement Dusty boxes full of memoirs hesitant I'll show you mine if you show me yours Show me yours show me show me Buying into superstition appropriate misinformation faith now is our only fate left So let's get annihilated Hear the music? Time to face it Did we choose this? Can we change it? Did you walk two fucking moons bitch? Cause we're all doomed if you didn't Maybe it's the way that we communicate Are we inherently selfish, inbred, or agitated? While we're founded and surrounded here by white supremacy but all the people who can change things are the ones who fail to see Are we the offspring of the most violent rapist of the time because back then the biggest assholes are the ones that could survive Or so they say or so they wrote it in a book but, hey, who wrote that book by the way? And so they say don't you know That's the way that it goes And it's just, it's not dangerous If I'm dangerous It's not dangerous If I'm dangerous

FLUORIDE 00:48
FLUORIDE Fluoride antibiotics plastics and metals and soaps if we could just pull out all of our war efforts and send them to clean up the ocean together as an earth, because it's literally our last common ground Survival of the fittest businesses Run by their kids' kids They don't see their own greed because they grew up rather privileged if it's bread they wanna save they'll do anything it takes

G.T.F.O. 03:00
G.T.F.O. Disappointing interactions staining favorite pastimes there's always some asshole ruining a good time acting kinda funny almost suddenly so lovely subtly Sickeningly condescending all over unrelenting someone help this meathead grilling me on street cred I'm about to shred this pilgrims ego like a nuclear torpedo just leave me alone let me go Isn't it obvious now we're so much better off Isn't it clear as day now we're so much better off You're so much better off I'm so much better off Isn't it obvious now we're so much better off Isn't it clear as Noticing the hole in the bottom of the bowl Take a deep breath Quite Frankly I'm Panicking frantically, If I keep swimming, water spills, plug it up with fins it won't flow through my gills Is there anybody out there

GROWING ISN'T EASY Featuring: Liz Cisco Challenging yourself you learn growing isn't easy I wake up in a panic every morning it completes me Cause you can't just have the good without the bad and you can't always have fun when someone's sad if I happen to fail to fit in I'm a liar and a villain but I still live in a place where they don't easily accept me for who I am I still live in a place where they don't easily accept me for who I am (Liz) sometimes i feel stuck like im running through mud now im looking at the cup likes its half empty, fill it up. cant help but wonder what, how, why did i end up in this rut? people all around me, all they do is judge. nothing i do is right, so it seems, wanna give up, so i put up a fight, keep try-na show them i can love. but the general consensus is that no one gives a fuck, so why should i give a fuck? gotta follow my gut. it tells me that i got issues with trust, and these people pretend to care but they just lust. so now i make my own way through the muck, and when i hit dry ground these fools can eat my dust
5.
HEAVEN 01:17
HEAVEN Heaven's still out there you can buy it in a pill Drinking with dragons living in the next building Blindly they're filling in the blanks did you see me? Cause I'm more accessible then organic tahini Our parents won't let us play together anymore Who else will cry themselves to sleep on the floor? Spoiled with the blood of those less fortunate We know that it's wrong but we're serving up heads
6.
JAMS 03:35
JAMS Words don't mean anything around you anymore here hold this violin hey can I see that guitar drag out the accordion just watch the glass on the floor it's been smashed like a drum the piano holds the chord Through the smoke of the weed and cigars I can hear the clearest melodies I can see all the stars the bass cuts through the fog standing up on the bar I thought I'd given up on magic but I'm under this spell of yours Break me down I'm under your spell have we met before? Complete the circle when every hands holding and instrument to open up a portal and we're all jumping into it yeah summoning friends from so far away the monster inside of me is now fully awake
7.
MONSTERS 03:28
MONSTERS I like it. it's all I've ever known it's all I've ever dreamed of I just can't get enough won't have the will to kill it smart, or masters of the art to start we're monsters it's impossible to stop apostles don't make me turn this horse around bound and quartered between the next new world orders eradicate me baby I get off on tourture it's just a walk to the grave alone or with the parade everyone is afraid regardless terrified you're gonna die first I hate this abomination it's new and I'm afraid of it it robs me of elation and confidence feeling insecure is when the time to destroy everything has come obstinate hands extend with some one sided rhetoric well Captivated by this curse Navigating the traverse Something someone said is penetrating my inertia , I can feel it in my skin Something somewheres seeping in am I ready to begin unlearning all the pain and hurt and shame and lies and guilt bad habits and abuse mistakes within
8.
THINK ABOUT IT Staring inherent fate down winding and shaking my watch might be against the rules but not all odds is it worth calculating all the seconds it would take to pass this up cause I like the face that you make when you play that guitar When you play that guitar I've crossed love off of my list of possibilities My heart is filled with blood My blood is filled with THC Neurotransmit faster answers consuming caffeine orgasm for fun my brain is cumming dopamine I don't wanna think about it
9.
UTOPIALAND 03:01
UTOPIALAND No fight no fury no fright no worry no judge no jury no doubt No conflict or hate remain unwelcome challenges oh everything balances out Here in UTOPIALAND we like to plan for the short and the long game alike valuing innovation and accountability isn't it silly isn't it silly without Oh isn't it silly No cops no corruption no class or oppression no trash no prisons power trips or evictions everyone has a home healthcare and shares a kitchen we rotate the chores live in pods like a ship in utopialand where there's no gods or masters we meet up quite frequently discussing disasters utopialand where we learn from our mistakes and use sustainable energy sustainably everyday Isn't it silly?

WISH I STAYED Wish I stayed tonight, I wish I stayed tomorrow I Wish I could have stayed a little longer in this place that drowns my sorrow yeah we're all a bit hungover attempting to explain our symptoms symply ending up professing love that's coming to fruition home and diving through a notebook That is drowning in depression Up until this point right here where I start leaving trails of breadcrumbs Oh I hope I find my way back Or at least a little head room cause my heart feels like it's gonna stop if I don't do anything I wish I stayed Well can you blame me? whoa When my heart wants to sing Songs of the road These melodies are haunting me Don't you know Cut to 28 days later Finding comfort in sustainment Where survival is dependent On stretching my fucking legs out Naturally adaptable Another product of the brainwash Slowly rotting right here stably All for the entertainment Moving forward with a game plan For the rest of the duration Gonna aim to run the clock out Maintaining homeostasis And when doubt blocks out the clouds While counting down to the next paycheck We'll know we're not in a cover band In a bar in Pennsylvania I wish I stayed Well can you blame me? woo When my heart wants to sing Songs of the road These melodies are haunting me There's only me there's only me in the end there's only me in the end theres always me in the end there's only me Cause everybody wants to be loved
