I'm fired up
I've had enough
Of backing down
And getting pushed around

I'm standing tall
I will not fall
I'll be the wrecking ball
[crossed out: through your] [crossed out: brick] wall
Right through your

I'm rising up through the ashes
Taking names and kicking asses
Finally the tide has turned
And I'm laying claim to what I deserve

I've waited
And found waiting brings nothing
Dedicated
I know I'm bound to find something
[crossed out: that leads down this road or the past]

Just hoping
That I can handle the pressure
That comes with
Protecting [crossed out: ones] treasure
Defending your
I've never been [crossed out: material]

The words on this page
You can't burn what's already been burned
I died inside once that's when I learned
Something is gone I can't put it in words
I've been far more reserved and afraid to be hurt
I think it's contagious
Are you on the same page, kid?
Tell me your story
share with me your pain
How far was your fall from glory?
And tell me what was her name?
With a teary eye he recalled Adellana Marie
She said her last name [?]
At least what it used to be
The same fire that warms can also burn do you harm
The many times I was warned I claimed false alarm
She hunt me by giving up
I hurt myself & loved too much

GROOVE BACK II SONG 55
I don't wanna know about my heroes...
The same way I don't wanna know if my doctor drinks
Being who you are has gotten you this far
But you've stalled and hit a wall
My guy... what are you doing to yourself?
Didn't you used to be someone else?

I'm trying to get my groove back
(Groove back)
And prove that
(Prove that)
The haters were wrong

I'm trying to write a new refrain
where I show restraint
and not lose from where I came
you know
same old shit, same old song!

Find the song 57
put here

IN FRONT OF THE MAN song 18
As I stand before the judge
He licks his lips
And I know...
They're gonna hang me!

All those led paint chips
That I ate as a kid
I think they made me angry!

I wet the bed
From warm, ahhh... to cold
So I light a fire and watch it grow

The words on this page
I pretend my hate comes from a
noble place
I'll kill you in the name of religion!
I am going off to war. What are we fighting for? I'll
pretend it was my own decision.
I pay taxes for schools and tolls for roads
I got drafted but coach Zelinsky, I don't wanna play
For a Quarterback throwing hospital passes as we get carried away
They give my money to the Jews for what [scribbled-out word] God know?
Who else do we give money to to fight foreign
I mean what do you think "Blowback" by Chalmers Johnson is for?
Johnson is for?
Gift it don't burn it
Or you will just have to relearn it

The mask they wear is falling
Can you hear them calling
Mother I am dying
I pay this price for lying
The man building the bombs
His time it has come
Those who just turned away
Await the very same fate

ANOTHER EPIC POEM
As the cameras flashed
Somehow I held everything back
Oh, how I was so ready to snap

Yet so caught up in the moment
I knew I could not show it
So I made it seem like I cherished it

As on the inside I'd lie
and try to hide
All of my rough, jagged edges
and my innermost blemishes

While on the outside I'd smile,
Shake hands and high five
The people as they filed
Up and down now
They're crowding around
both sides of the aisle

This was before your time
This was before your time
This was before your time

Back when you didn't know me
Back when I barely knew myself

This was before your time
This was before your time
This was before your time

Back when I was searching for
Safety in seclusion far away from someone else

But when I heard the magic of your words
As you sang I actually praised the lord!
And those of you who know me would all agree
That that's my own personal version of blasphemy...

Why did I believe in you?
Was it because I knew
You'd come to believe in me, too...
Eventually...

Or was it because
before you came around
I found I was spiritually empty...
I was oh so empty...

Then suddenly, you appeared.. dear
And here was this well
Ahh.. Refreshing as hell
Just then your voice rang out
As clear as a bell,
"Drink up, drink up...
For we have more...
Yes, there's plenty!"

Since that day
I have NEVER lost my faith

My faith in me...
My faith in you...
My faith in our ability to adapt or escape...
To either leave or lead this human race!

[?] unstable because
[?] feeling trapped

[?] ays

[?] Buridan's Ass...
[?] Buridan's Ass...

[?] died right here from indecision
[?] left his bones to act as our map

Buridan's Ass...
Buridan's Ass...

When you're empty, hungry and thirsty
Sometimes the secret
is just knowing when to act!

Buridan's Ass...
Buridan's Ass...

You could learn a lot from a donkey
If you just know the right questions to ask...

Buridan's Ass...

GROOVE BACK II
I don't wanna know about my heroes...
The same way I don't wanna know if my doctor drinks

Being who you are has gotten you this far
But you've stalled and hit a wall

My guy... what are you doing to yourself?
Didn't you used to be someone else?

I'm trying to get my groove back
(Groove back)
And prove that
(Prove that)
The haters were wrong

I'm trying to write a new refrain
where I show restraint
and not lose from where I came
you know
same old shit, same old song!

WALLFLOWER POOP
Gonna take a poop in the night...
Hope it's gonna flush right

Doesn't matter who clogged the bowl
You got a wide asshole

Tried to free it up...
But now the plunger's stuck
Yeah, now you really fucked up!

But now its doesn't matter who did what
Amidst this... now toxic flood!

One, two, three swipes... a poop knife
Shit drips splattered 'neath the seat
Somebody gonna have to clean up

You hope nobody sees you make your great escape
Oh FUCK SHIT it's too late!

Try to come up with a story they can understand
When you notice your hand....

Looks like ya forgot to wipe!
This night didn't go as you had planned.

In a land full of hiders
Who have yet to discover
They're cannon fodder for the insiders

Uh Oh! The last guy who said that got shot
But the guy before him became a movie star

Few know it was Moses who built the arc
Before Noah came and stole it and rode it
And then stripped it for parts...

---

Oh, shit.
They just bought TikTok.
You might catch stray.
Better not talk.

We have more in common
Than complicity in bombing
All the starving unpeople
Suffering in the desert sand

It's gone too far south
To vote our way out
Don't have to be
A Kennedy to understand....

My inner dialogue is trapped in a box
like a fucking mime, yeah.
They keep telling me to believe
But all I see is them robbing me
Fucking blind, yeah!
It's not by accident
the North hates the South, yeah.
Slay the whip master, no matter
This engine runs by itself!

Democrats love all strangers,
just not uncle or brother.
Republicans only love God,
No, they don't like each other!

The last president who told the truth,
his initials are now a verb.
Killed by his own CIA and probably the Jews,

Yeah. Israel first, America second,
But it could be worse.
Fake views, no, fake news.
Fake views, yeah, fake fucking everything.
Something, something, something,
so they can take everything, yeah.

All our leaders are bought and paid for
by the state of Israel.
They said if you want a record deal,
then you better not tell.

Better not tell
might catch a stray.

You wanna put a man on the moon...
I wanna put a man in a room!

Politics is just kayfabe on T.V.
Where it's all one big show - a show for me!
They give me a vote
Choice A or choice B
But the difference 'tween 'em both
Can be hard to see

I asked for change
And what'd they say?
So didn't Charlie Kirk
And JFK....

i see cameras on the polls

You got drafted by coach Zelensky

For a QB who throws hospital passes
All your teammates get carried away!

Who else do we give money to
To fight foreign wars?
Whuddya think the book 'Blowback'

Everything else is up for sale
You want further proof...
United States and Israel, yeah
The United States and Israel, yeah
The United Stats of Israel, no!

Bunch of Zionist Jews
Keep on buying my news
Tic Toc, too
Because you gotta buy your views

When everyone under twenty-five
Knows they've seen a genocide

You pay seven grand a pop
To get influencers to stop
The tidal wave of truth
That's been rolling in

Put Bari Weiss in charge
Bring the new regime in...

(6) STRAWMAN
Well the left wants to keep you from saying things
While the right wants to keep you from thinking things
But this state of hopeless doom keeps me from doing things

I just stay in my room with no sense of being
Blinded through my own lack of seeing
Encased in a tomb with no chance of freeing
Myself from myself
So I fill up with hate...

Pick a straw man to hang
And go about my day

All this deceiving.
You have a good day.
You see me leaving.

It's just me and the cat.
I don't trust anyone else.
Yeah, you drove me to that.
That would be an improvement.
Hating myself....

NOT hanging myself!
(This picture of Jeffery -
It didn't hang itself!)

It's just me and the cat,
everyone else chose the gun.
And learning Hebrew,
I admit it's not that fun.

With a lak shak lak hum, haiyam,

And I can hide my bald spot
with that little hat, yeah.

My inner dialogue is trapped in a box

Hey.

Do everything that the Adelson say!

Grabbed my balls and coughed.

ONE STEP HIGHER
The mask they wear is falling
Can you hear them calling?
Mother, I am dying
I pay this price for lying

The man building the bombs
His time it has come!
Those who just turned away
Await the very same fate

Two-hundred-and-fifty-years
That's how long it took for us to get here
That's a long time to rust and erode
Grow weeds around the seeds we once sewed, yeah

The identity we used to be
I see falling down all around me
For today I can't really say if I'm sure
If we're really the good guys anymore

Seems like ever since the end of World War Two
Most of what our leaders do leaves me confused
At the candidate's debate I wait - "Oh, please do tell!"
How'd we become the United States of Israel?

Who's got the dirt on who?
Why they lie about what I know to be true
AIPAC of lies, Senate and Congress says
Sure, Donald Trump turned his head...
But Charlie Kirk got shot dead!

Zionist Jews bought the news
Since the times of our Lord
They'll label you an anti-Semite
So nobody says a word!

From a Holocaust victim...
To Gaza Strip genocide
Eighty years is all it takes
To go over to the other side

When you live-stream death twenty-four hours a day
You'll watch a world of color quickly fade to gray
What? We pay 'em four billion dollars a year?
Just think what that money could do around here

I'm stuck, running in place
To get unfucked... gotta at least start the race
But that's hard - no, not the easiest choice
When they shame your name, they hate your face
And despise your voice

When they shame my name,
they hate my face
And despise my voice

When they shame their name,
they create their fate
Leaving us no choice...

The last leader who had our back
We all watched his skull crack
On a Texas day in Dealey Plaza

From Vietnam to Lebanon to Iraq
to Grenada to the Gulf now modern-day Gaza

Sure, any country can have a good century
But the last eleven presidents should all be in the
penitentiary
Countries now hardly have borders
Just the so-called "elite" and those who follow orders

Sure, the Sicilian mob is gone
But the CIA's five hundred times as strong
The sale of secrets, of souls, of weapons and tech
Blackmail Rolodexed and videotapes full of underaged
sex

You think you're playing Monopoly when you're
playing Risk
You say you'll take your shot - but the game's already
been fixed
Money talks, money walks
Sticks and stones beat stocks and bonds
Tell me - what the fuck planet do you live on?

Raise the alarm, raise the gate
They're finally here to do harm - it's too late!

The last leader who had our back
You all watched his skull crack
On a Texas day in Dealey Plaza

From Vietnam to Lebanon to Iraq
to Grenada to the Gulf now modern-day Gaza

Sure, any country can have a good century
But the last eleven presidents should all be in the
penitentiary

POINT MY FINGER SONG 53
Fatalistic Fairytales
Never make the children smile
Little lads long to cling to hanging chads
and happy history teacher's made up facts
That make great heroes of mom and dads
Grandpa and grandmoms after-the-fact

Though they know war sucks when people die
Take a rake from a peasant from the countryside
Replace it with a bullet encased in metal homicide

No it's not nice... Crushing dreams
Run up behind a Frenchman... And yell "Guillotine!"
But watch out!
For he's bound to dish, dash, dart, and then scream
And that's when things will get REAL mean!

Humanity lacks sympathy
And we can never agree harmoniously
I point my finger violently at you
as you point back at me

I shake the sheeple
And unite the people
Who see the world like me
We don't like what we see
But we're divided there's no hiding
They constantly keep us fighting

Humanity lacks sympathy
And we can never agree harmoniously
I point my finger violently at you
as you point back at me

It's getting too easy to get distracted
Once upon a time
I might have over reacted
But today I take it as the truth
So I'm taking some time
To retreat and regroup

Knowing I'm in this
For the Long haul
Sure I'll stand 'til I can't
But bend before I fall

For there is so much work
Ahead for me to do
I've learned how and when to say when
Because when you're me
You gotta do what you have to do
Just to be you

Class war ain't a battle
That is won in a day
It took thousands of years
For things to get to here
Millions of deaths
And billions of words
To brainwash the people
And hide and silence their hurt

I got a little work left on myself
To be the best I can be
But when I come back
I expect a hug when you see me walking the streets...

Humanity lacks sympathy
And we can never agree harmoniously
I point my finger violently at you
as you point back at me

They have working eyes and yet are lacking sight
They claim suits and wear ties
Creating walls of numbers
which they like to hide behind
Leaving me to be an I.A.
in a world full of A.I.s
Ay yi yi...

It's not just the freaks
That sleep down at the beach
Lately I see
Lots of people like you and me

These are crazy times
If you read between the lines
You can find lots of uncovered crimes
Under your blanket in
What we call the New York Times

Humanity lacks sympathy
And we can never agree harmoniously
I point my finger violently at you
as you point back at me
(as you point back at me...)
(as you-point back-at ME)

KAYFABE song 56
Well I don't have kids I have a cat
The world isn't round and it isn't flat
It's tilted, it's warped and crooked as hell
Manufacturing isn't gone... It's you who they sell!

Politics is just kayfabe on T.V.
Where it's all one big show - a show for me!
They give me a vote
Choice A or choice B
But the difference 'tween 'em both
Can be hard to see

I asked for change
And what'd they say?
So didn't Charlie Kirk
And JFK....

(127)
There's three briefcases full of cash
For a kidnapper and a politician
If any questions get asked
You were just out there fishing - big game
I like persons but not the masses
I got contacts, though I prefer glasses

HEROES ARE GONE (177, six of eight)
I used to have heroes
Who have died or otherwise moved on.
I used to have heroes,
But those days of having heroes are gone.

[?] and I could be president -
or I could get 10 people to love me
and I could be happy.
I'm not sure I'm capable of doing both."
- Brian Rainstorm

I SEE CAMERAS ON (12, one of eight)
i see cameras on the polls
i think donald trump knows
who's on the epstein files
all his friends are pedophiles
Slick Willy Bill the same
yeah, politics is just a game

(229, six of eight)
Landmines and trampolines
and not much in between.

ASSORTED ZIONATION LYRICS
(27)
Talking straight to crooked people

(83)
Spend less on war
Make fewer enemies
Instead of more, more, more!
Either/or...
Buy, lend or lease

137
When the war came I was drafted number one
They didn't teach me how to fight
Or even give me a gun
On my second day I dropped behind enemy lines
Somehow I made friends within a short amount of time

BEFORE NOAH (761, 12b of 30)
We've got a runner!
In a land full of hiders
Who have yet to discover
They're cannon fodder for the insiders
Uh Oh! The last guy who said that got shot
But the guy before him became a movie star
Few know it was Moses who built the arc
Before Noah came and stole it and rode it
And then stripped it for parts...

STRAWMAN song 56
Well the left wants to keep you from saying things
While the right wants to keep you from thinking things
But this state of hopeless doom keeps me from doing
things
I just stay in my room with no sense of being
Blinded through my own lack of seeing
Encased in a tomb with no chance of freeing
Myself from myself
So I fill up with hate
Pick a straw man to hang
And go about my day

(224, six of eight)
A Muslim and a Jew alone in a room, don't shoot.
Dude, a Muslim and a Jew are alone in a room, don't
shoot.
Yeah, Moscow or Ukraine, you're pretty much the same.
99% the same, don't shoot, yeah.
Moscow or Ukraine, you're 99% the same, don't shoot.

SONG 52
SUN, MOON AND TRUTH
The sun, the moon and the truth...
Everything else is up for sale
You want further proof...
United States and Israel, yeah
The United States and Israel, yeah
The United Stats of Israel, no!

Bunch of Zionist Jews
Keep on buying my news
Tic Toc, too
Because you gotta buy your views

When everyone under twenty-five
Knows they've seen a genocide
You pay seven grand a pop
To get influencers to stop
The tidal wave of truth
That's been rolling in
Put Bari Weiss in charge
Bring the new regime in...

(471)
UNBENDABLE SOLDIERS
Unbendable soldiers never look over their shoulders
For no one ever told them that the goddamn war was
over
Their ankles still shackled to the same old giant boulder
The earth is only considered to be just a temporary
holder
People just dangle as they're being carried away
Men in nice suits place another name inside a heavy
folder
So sorry Mrs. Bojangles... just be glad you're not the
one who told her
You could try and you could try but you could never
console her
As the wind blowing in your face just became a little
more colder
And you would mold her and him again if they were
both made of clay

NOBLE PLACE HATE song 17
I pretend my hate comes from a noble place
I'll kill you in the name of YOUR religion!
I'm going to war?
What are we fighting for?
I'll pretend it was my own decision!

I pay taxes for schools
and tolls for roads
They give my money to the Jews
For what? God knows

Got drafted by coach Zelensky
When I don't wanna play
For a QB who throws hospital passes
All my teammates get carried away!

Who else do we give money to
To fight foreign wars?
I mean whuddya think 'Blowback'
By Chalmers Johnson is for???

Gift it don't burn it
Or you will have to relearn it
History is calling
As more buildings are falling....

BRIBE THE POOR BLACKMAIL THE RICH (776,
13b of 30)
Bribe the poor, blackmail the rich
Then the world is yours to do with it
As you wish...
The bravest are the first to die
That's why I'm standing here
And that's no lie
You don't have to procreate to save the race
Only kill at will to free up some space
Is your species driving you mad?
'Cause chillun' having chillun' is the latest fad
A view of heaven
from a seat in hell
Fuck the chip I got a boulder on my shoulder
I got tossed in this melting pot
And placed under a slow boil
Hands up, don't shoot
I can't breathe
When the blacks can't breathe
There can be no peace
We've got to plant the seed of equality
When being black's a crime
There can be no more denying
Out in the street
Police gotta face the heat
If you're silent
That's compliance
And just as bad as violence
We got blacks who can't breathe
And we got whites in the streets
Yelling "Fuck the Police!"
The police chief perspires
As his precinct's on fire
The line's been drawn in the sand
Here we stand against the man
This is twenty-first century slavery!

135 - Keeping Cool
How much longer until the button is pressed
Lately leaders have been losing trust
Days, months, or years - it's anyone's guess
How long we got left until before a cloud of dust
We all shake our heads and we disagree
Is there such a thing as honor among thieves?
Or are they all just biding their time
'Til they get us all up on the firing line
You know I've been growing mighty tired
Saying, "I voted for the guy who lied"
Wishing to return to the days of yore
When liars' heads rolled on the courtyard floor
And revolution ran red with rivers of blood
Repercussions were faced for dragging someone's name
through the mud
Yeah, back when someone talked smack
You weren't getting up!
