New Release: Mill Street: A Shakespeare Tragedy
Morning braids a complex scene
Native demons not meant to see
Anxious pain when I’m half asleep
Oh to be or not to be
chorus
I killed a man I didn’t use a gun
A Shakespeare tragedy I’m on the run
In a dream missing those I love
I killed a man, I follow the setting sun
Though this be madness I trudge through endlessly
Scared of faces that disdain me
Shadows chased in a night time dread
Scraps found in my daytime head
chorus
I killed a man I didn’t use a gun
A Shakespeare tragedy I’m on the run
In a dream missing those I love
I killed a man, I follow the setting sun
Laid to bare through flames and pain; pale broken bones
And it must follow as we know, nothing sewn is grown
When shadows speak in daggers long; minutes gone a journey’s dawn
And I must follow as the night; my stomach tightly drawn
The ingress of a Mill Street tragedy
A black framed Shakespeare is pursuing me
This above all; to myself be true
Can I rectify and run like hell
chorus
I killed a man I didn’t use a gun
A Mill Street tragedy I’m on the run
In a dream missing those I love
I killed a man, I follow the setting sun
Is This Me
9-11 to Ferguson
Raising young at the start of war
Placed a letter in my drawer
I feared the future now
I smell it’s rotten foul
Waging parties do agree
War brings them prosperity
In the streets we fight our own
Our armies facing home
Black men we shoot and fear
Prison’s filled pain and tears
Cops storming through our doors
Shame cries from shining shores
Trillions spent for war
Thousands dead profits soar
We squeeze the working man
Send the poor to foreign lands
No care when they return
On principles we burn
Fake news for profit spin
Scant truths mixed within
Bought heads flame the fire
Truth shines the highest buyer
Convinced of gain through war
That’s what TV is for
War stands mixed with greed
My country ‘tis of thee
We’ve brought invasion home
Bad food drugs and bombs
For love of fellow man
Let us give a damn
9-11 to Ferguson
What have we done
