lyrics

Flood the violet
I’m reaching through you
Been good to know you
I flew in from a throne
I am that stone bird
Etched on shoulders of ancient earth’s
Sacred deities that bled to pay the toll
The ways resolve in rays relay and roam

Pachamama could ya
Patch my wounds I’ve been a
Fool to hold these faults for fortune blacks as Crows
All my reasons swept up
Underneath them as
All the feelings
Of an orbit left alone
The fourfold path you’ll walk is of your own

I know living ain’t free
But freedom is living
so if there’s suffering 
may it churn me into ribbons
with old regards 
from Balthazar
A verse to soothe the ridges
I’ve traveled far, so very far
to preserve a solvent visage


Forms platonic
trace all thats sonic
just as vision paints
a portrait bathed in code
it’s over even
often just leans in
makes the dream hinge
off its axis as it glows
and fall away like petals on a rose

The mystique abstract
I bridge these worlds that
sift into mine from
Music that elopes
With wheels of color, fragrances thunder
As shapes and numbers float to dictate how we grow
The sort of thing that makes you wanna know

Turn another cheek you’ll see
That seeking is giving
Away the gift of being here
In your silver prism
We’ve come so far so very far
To leap before the finish
So reach the bar from where you are
And meet a flower vintage

It is what it is
And it ain’t what it ain’t
Untying these knots will take a whole lotta paint
These electric paths will be cleared from the faint
Recollective residue lining the limbs of the lane

Ultraviolet
Vines seepin through you
It’s been good to show you
I blew in as a node with
A holographic
tonal back track holdin
My wooden backpack
high enough to hear the notes
And snag a couple lines for the road
