Life Contemplations:
Sometimes I sit and wonder why is my life this way.
Sometimes I lay back and contemplate but don't know what to say.
I wish that I could change the past erase the things that I have done wrong.
I know that I can get through life as long as I stay strong.
I'll never make my mama proud I know that deep inside.
I know I'll break my mama's heart those feelings I can't hide.
I know she wants to see me do good I am her baby boy.
She wants to see e succeed in life it would bring her lots of joy.
So sometimes I sit and wonder how can I make her proud me.
I want my life to go how it should how it's suppose to be.
So I know when I get I'll find myself a wife.
Love the woman that I'm with and live the rest of my life.
So now you see that in my life there's a lot of complications.
So at night I lay back and review lifes contemplations. -

A Psychopath's Mind:
I don't live a hippies life I just smoke my weed.
I never asked for anything I have all I need.
People think I'm slow because of how quiet I can be.
That's the sign of a psychopath so come on fuck with me.
Then you have the fakers who likes to run their lips.
But when they let them out the gate they some how always slip.
I don't go and play the gate it's just not fun for me.
If he sees me on the street my fist is all he'll see.
See I'm not the one to play no games I do what I gotta do.
And if you get on my bad side then I feel bad for you.
I won't kill you off the bat you'll live a little but.
You'll die a slow and painful death with every cut and every slit.
They'll never find your body I'll set the whole place on fire.
Just to see you die will be my passion and my desire.
Just remember one thing and I hope you can see.
That I can hurt you really bad so come on fuck with me. -

Christmas:
When you think of Christmas you think of happy times.
You think of Christmas dinner pies and sweet red wine.
You think of all the presents underneath the tree.
You think of all the family and how happy they will be.
You eat your Christmas cookies and drink your eggnog too.
You think of all the presents that someone gave to you.
You sing some Christmas Carols and watch some movies too.
Then you dream of Santa Clause his beard and big red coat.
You know St. Nick is tired from all the presents he has to tote.
So you leave him milk and cookies so he can have a little rest.
You know it won't add up to much but you know you did your best.
Your just glad it's Christmas that special time of year.
So you decorate your house and spread some Christmas cheer.
So yes it is that time of year we know it to be true.
So have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year too! ! -

Riding Out:
As I sit here in prison for a crime I didn't commit.
Girl I have to be honest I think this time I'm hit.
It's lonesome here in prison without you by my side.
It's hard to do my time in here without a girl that will ride.
The moneys not a problem you know just what I'll do.
My words are gold but fuck it all all I want is you.
And you know that I eat triple trays and I would sleep good at night.
But without you here in my arms I can't help but fight.
I tell the boys to watch their mouths when they come out their neck.
I know without you in my life girl my life's a wreck.
I thought I had it bad when I looked death in it's face.
But that was easy this is hard I need your loving embrace.
I'm not afraid of many things but this one thing I know.
I'm afraid that you might leave me I'm afraid that you might go.
Come on girl and say you'll stay say you will ride with me.
Tell me that you love me show me the rider that you can be. -

The Devil's Dance:
The Devil came and said to me I will have your soul for eternity.
You have done wrong and now you are mine you know you should have walked the line.
Now it's too late and you're trapped here in hell.
Here where the demons and sinners all dwell.
You will be tortured for the rest of all time.
You will wish you had never committed your crime.
You will come and you'll beg for forgiveness from me but forgiveness from me is the last thing you'll see.
I looked at Satan and spit in his face then I told him he was a disgrace.
I ripped out his tongue as he started to yell.
Then I said it's time I took over hell.
Bring me the she devils yes bring them to me.
I'll plant my seed watch and you'll see.
They brought Satan's daughters every last one.
They all carried my seed when I was done.
Then I looked at Satan and said I'm not through with you.
You have to be tortured but what should I do?
So I called upon Meducca and she turned him to stone.
Then I grabbed his pitchfork and took over the throne.
Satan's still made of stone still to this day.
You'll see fear in his eyes but he has nothing to say. -

The Fates Fate:
The fates have decided to let me live some more.
They want me to see the future so they opened up the door.
They looked me in the eyes and said go and live your life.
Go now child and roam the earth and find yourself a wife.
Go and enjoy every last breath before your time is over and you are sentenced to death.
Go and enjoy the sun in the sky so when life is over you are willing to die.
Go and enjoy the green of the earth go have your children and witness their birth.
Go enjoy life everyday live a good life until your old and your gray.
When it's your time to die you will pay the toll.
The price of the toll is your very own soul.
I looked at the three and said you're nothing but hags.
A trio of witches dressed up in rags.
I've met the Devil and he sweats when I speak.
He knows next to me he's nothing but weak.
I've made Satan run and leave his pitchfork behind.
He knows that my evil is one of a kind.
I scared the Reaper he ran from my sight.
He wanted my soul but i put up a fight.
Now the words I have heard they sound like a threat.
The words you just said I will make you regret.
I will be back when my time is through.
When I come back here's what I'll do.
I will go up to Satan and take over the throne.
He'll run into Meducca and she'll turn him to stone.
Then I will come and torture you three.
Go ahead and laugh now but wait and you'll see.
That when I take over my demons will rage.
They have spent way to long locked in their cage.
You will come and you'll beg with your face to the ground.
But I won't hear a word no I won't hear a sound.
You'll be slashed with a whip all night and all day.
I'll torture you slowly in every single way.
So when I return it will be way too late.
You've danced with the Devil you've sealed your own fate. -

Will You Be My Valentine?
I hear cupid singing, in a soft and beautiful way.
Singing for all the lovers, on this valentines day.
The singing is so beautiful, such a beautiful work of art.
He goes around singing songs, to open up your heart.
I want you to know, my heart belongs to you.
Each and every night, i know our love is true.
I pray that you know, i love you in every way.
Your the one who holds my heart, on this valentines day.
I long for you with all my soul, and with all my heart.
I'm so in love and confused, i don't know where to start.
I want to hold you in my arms, in a loving embrace.
I want to say i love you as we're standing face to face.
I think about you everyday, in my wake and in my dreams.
And i know that love, is not always what it seems.
When i am around you, the world feels so right.
I want to hold you in my arms, everyday and every night.
I never want to lose you, you are my one desire.
Your the one i think of everyday, you set my soul on fire.
I know one thing thats for sure, i'm glad that you are mine.
So i have just one request, will you be my valentine? -

The Beautiful Indian Maiden And Me:
There once was an Indian Maiden she was the love of my life.
I loved her so much that every night I dreamed of her being my wife.
I am an Indian Warrior Lonewolf is the name I have chose.
I saw the Indian Maiden and couldn't help but fall in love.
I felt the warmth of her lonesome heart and her soul's as pure as a dove.
I looked at the Indian Maiden and said you are beautiful, what is your name?
She said they call me Lonesome Maiden and then the story came.
She said I was made to wonder alone one of a tribe that is no more.
Many of warriors have told me I'm beautiful but in my heart I can't be sure.
Now I have listened to medicen men and have heard the stories of old.
I know my body's a pleasure to see and my face is one to behold.
Now the stories I have heard such beautiful works of art.
They say that beauty comes from within that beauty comes from the heart.
Since I can not marry outside of my people I will carry their memory with pride.
So I am made to wonder alone I will never be anyone's bride.
Then the story ended she vanished and left me there.
So I prayed to Napi and said why is life so unfair.
So at night when I dream I'll tell you what i see.
There in the forest standing together was the beautiful Indian Maiden and me. -

WHISPERS:
Cool As A Whispered Prayer
I'm Over Here
And Your Over There
Playing With Mortality
You're Dancing On Fire
On A Very High Wire
The Echoes Are Heard
From Someone Or Something
Maybe A Bird
An Injured Wing
It Strives To Fly
To An Inviting Plum Tree
So It Can Try
To Eat And Rest Peacefully
Behold What A Sight
The Day Turns To Night
For A Few Seconds Only
The Moon Hides And Passes Slowly
On Their Way
The Men Witness This
Wait For The Call
To Ominously Play
They Dream Another Place And Time
You'll Have To Pay
The Hourglass Has No Sand
The Sun Gets Close
Time Has Run Out
Where Did It All Go
Poured Through A Spout
It Went Far Too Slow
What A Shame
Time Wasted And
All Over The Land
Omega Day...
