Clancy scratching ferociously at the door It's time to start our day and go lay in the yard Sunbaths and a fresh crispness in the air Sometimes wonder how I got here Across the threshold Learn to let go Into the unknown Overcome your shadow Shift the paradigm Unlearn the bullshit You gotta purge it The investment's worth it Shift the paradigm I ate a mushroom one November day in New York I gave my head a rest so I could let my heart work I felt my truest self emerging Just standing there at the doorway Divested myself of the most logical fears I decided to let my gut take it from here Short-sighted suicide's no way out Just kill the version of you that sucks

TimeScum 04:50
My mind's so powerful Yet also hackable It's hard to find Truth and peace of mind Go to work, never leave Convinced myself this is me I am my job There's nothing more to life Eventually the sands of time Crust to your eyes and turn to grime It's hard to change A new world looks so strange Visions I didn't think I could see Birds and fish dancing before me I choreographed Gorecki's third symphony Interdimensional creativity I felt my soul emerge from corporate scourge Time's come to break free I laughed at my guide, he asked me why Said time's come to believe in me

Sidetracked 04:36
I keep my focus to find myself Sidetracked Wonder if my sidetrack is my soul's focus Is my sidetrack my soul focus? Just keep a focus Keep focus Keep focus Keep focus Keep focus My soul focus Keep focus Keep focus Keep focus Keep focus My soul's focused I keep my focus to find myself Yeah I'm sidetracked Just trust your sidetrack And fuck your Adderall Can't medicate the soul

Move to the desert to start anew Shake things up, see what remains true You get just what you bargain for Counterbalances within risk and reward Subconscious vultures circle around As you hesitate to step into new ground No matter what I do My old self is hiding under feeling new Look to my higher self to power through Still my old self is hiding Hiding under feeling new One lesson we must quickly learn Where there is patience only love can emerge The lies you tell yourself are showing you The honest version that sees right through Grow out of your trauma response See your future emerging on all fronts Life just goes in circles It will drive you crazy Unless you find your calm Center in that Venn diagram

Walking through hell in your gasoline suit Like Pete Rose would do To keep playing baseball You think you know what you want But you ain't got a clue No choice but to huff the fumes From your gasoline suit Can't think clear or tell what's true You ain't got a clue Walking through hell in your gasoline suit Like Pete Rose would do To keep playing baseball You think you know who you are But you ain't got a clue Light up, light up My gasoline suit

Lean Into 32 03:50
Never thought I'd live to see the day That I could love myself enough to act my age Buckle clicks on my sweet fanny pack I got all I need right here, never turning back Lean into 32! Not a day goes by Where I don't think How lucky am I? Grandpa Leo instilled power in me I want to love and build Prosperity

Mah' Face!!? 01:47
My face is falling off my head Soon see what it's like to look dead My face is falling off Every time I cough My face is falling off my head Drug facts active ingredients Homosalate 10 percent Meradimate, octinoxate Octocrylene 2 percent Zinc oxide 6.3 percent Look in the mirror see my skin glow Blink once now I look 200 years old Flesh falling off the bone Lo and behold I die alone My face is falling off my dome

Appreciate 03:26
I felt this notion I've seen in motion All my life I do aspire Be a mystic wiseman When my age is ripe What you appreciate Appreciates Love enough to See it through my eyes Love and imagination Are inspiration Boomerang to me Watching others flourish Soul is nourished Contentment's key What you appreciate Appreciates I am a vessel of Tangential love Are crystal clear signs Too great a coincidence For you to accept As heavenly guidance If physical reality Is just an illusion in space and time Then just how illusory Is clarity in the mind I've put in motion Embodied notions Learned through life I do emerge A music wiseman From time to time What you appreciate Appreciates I am a vessel of Tangential love Love enough to See it through my eyes

Yeah I feel I let you down Got in my own way again Overthinking takes precedent Over joy of the present Just breathe in deeply Show gratitude when and where you can Who cares if it's kinda corny Ain't nothing out there is pure anyway Yet I fear I let you down I've grown tired of problem solving Ain't shit in the world you can control Independence is my god calling But it's hard to find all on your own Go get yourself a puppy They reflect back to you who you can be I know I wanna see her thrive Symbiosis makes it worthwhile to be alive All those judgements I've had of myself Turns out, they're fuckin' bullshit I can't help but laugh out loud now Perspective is everything I regret nothing of my past It shaped me into who I am at last Can't say I really mind fucking up The more I learn and withstand The stronger I am

Feeling Good 03:13
What is good truly To my soul I feel a buzzing In my solar plexus On a constant basis I've trancended I drink my coffee Breathe in the desert flower I'm feeling good I'm feeling good It feels surreal I'm feeling good My heart has healed I have grown out of Petty inundations Fed back by media Mindnumbing conversations I have looked inward For long enough now Found my source of power Time to put it out there I'm feeling good I get a wrench thrown Into my plans But I've seen the pattern A hundred thousand times now So I can't get angry My demons have checked out Life flows in waves Just try to catch the come-up I'm feeling good I'm feeling good

Frequency 05:54
Tuned into a frequency Trust what I feel in my body Surrender to the unknown That's where true freedom comes from Tune in! Tune into the frequency Tune into the frequency Tune into your frequency Be who you truly want to be Tune into my frequency Wish you could see just what I see Tune into your frequency Abandon ideology Tuned into a frequency Trust what I feel in my body Surrender to the unknown That's where true freedom comes from Tune into your frequency Trust what you feel in your body Surrender to the unknown That's where true freedom comes from Tune into my freqency Tune into the frequency Tune into your frequency Tune into my frequency Tune into your frequency Tune into the frequency Tune into my frequency Tune into my frequency Tune into the frequency Tune into your frequency Now
