22. g.e.a. #2 (featuring fudgychewy)
Green to the Earth to the Al, Hey HAL open the airlock door,
in 2010 friends I had a little more in store
the illiest oddysey, you ever did see,
honestly, life in Honalee does appeal to me
but I'm a tree hugger
and I'm a free hugger
and I'm a you hugger
are you a me hugger
a Bob Marley, gnarley Could you be lover
A let's we go see what we can D-scover
So what you gonna do? What you gonna do?
My rap name is Alex and my real name is too
You can talk to me about shy / I / Know what that's about
I used to be SO deep inside myself SCREAMin to get out
and now I'm strong to the finish when I eats me sour kraut
and me BTV fam-ly helped me find the right route
green.earth.al is my pal saved the world with a smile while he smiled all the while
green.earth.al is my pal saved the world with a smile while he smiled all the while
My Rap Name is Alex a rapper but a rapper for the people
I tried havin an evil rap alter ego but he wasn't that evil
He tried he lied he said it wasn't him
that picked your dandilion stems and held them up under your chin
and hugged you without your concent
man, what a miscreant! He gets silly when we can't make rent
okay I'm strange, I'm that crazy change up. I know
but I'm nice and I'm smooth and sometimes I rhyme slow
and simple you know
like 1...2...3...4...
but then surprize suddenly switly
I'm sorry you blinked you missed me
who?... what just... nevermind... 59... 60
69 fine you'll prolly catch it next time
we now return you to your mind
1-800-hows my rhymes
green.earth.al is my pal saved the world with a smile while he smiled all the while
green.earth.al is my pal saved the world with a smile while he smiled all the while
Green to the Earth to the Al, back again, your Earth friend
me gustarle vivir con amor. Tu tambien?
it's that dapper rapper that's dressed like a crayola
and 20 years on I'm still gon boycott coca-cola
All in all I'm just another lonely homie in the wall
Some days I rock the hottest spot, and some days I don't talk at all
sometimes I don't wanna rhyme with wordplay all clever
I just wanna sit here... all alone... in the strawberry field... forever
but I guess I can't stop I got to get it get it
it keeps coming to my mind so I guess I have to come wit it
Learned a lot o things that really put me to the test
since I started wearing the word reUse on my chest
a little north of Best, a little south of concieted
dogpile on the stress yet I'm yet to be defeated
here in the northeast every creek got a Mill street
where we throw our whatever, then act like "Well I Never!"
It's hard to think of us as clever, as a species
neck deep in our own feces.
but love will keep us together, or at least it will try
it's best but the rest I guess is up to you and I
green.earth.al is my pal saved the world with a smile while he smiled all the while

23. 2BeFree
I like to hang around in my town
conversate, dream and imaginate, I don't hate
just create what it is I do want
I got no time to fight - no need to fuss - nothin to flaunt
bikin all barefoot, with flowers in my hair
You may say "way gay" I say "don't care"
(Aw Yeah) So You do you dude and I'll do me see
and this is what it is to be free
finger combing the hair of my family my tribe
singin at the top of our lungs SO ALIVE!
WE OUTSIDE! the fire's spittin some sparks into the night
more afraid of mass media mindrape than skeeter bites
Maybe it will rain but that's allright
Makes music on the tops of our tents we snug tight
Some nights I click, click, click by the monitor light
But tonight I got Starlight and that feels right
(Right) So you do you dude and I'll do me see
and this is what it is to be free
Standin on a line with my sign
speakin my mind and if I'm wastin my time it's MY time
fools wanna ridicule with words we won't mention
they all "Why you protestin? they'll never pay attention."
and maybe I haven't stopped Iraq kids from dyin
but at least I still feel it, at least I'm still tryin
I'm not dead inside, for me a source of pride
like buildin my brain instead of pimpin my ride
(Aiight) But hey, you do you dude and I'll do me see
and this is what it is to be free

25. Compassion Fatigue (fmb/ Jerome L)
Well it's year 10 on this stupid war
and I'm not sure I can care any more
the rich are richer than they've EVER been
and the poor are now even more poor
and I feel like I got a divorce
from what I was ever even opposing it for
sometimes it's too raw, down here on the floor it just never seems to quit
and I feel like I should be fit to spit and break shit and just smack you with an oven mit
but instead I just sit... stew for a while, maybe grit my teeth a little bit
I guess if they bomb babies often enough I eventually do get used to it
Now there's a million goopy fish? belly up? in an oil slick?
Well I still gotta go to work.
I mean I hate to be a jerk
But I still got bills to pay
and besides that was yesterday
Today there was some senseless violence?
Well. Wake me after the moment of silence
File that next to how many Iraqis died
Or died worldwide. The media lied???
Wait! What again?
Well maybe next year that'll end.
Maybe the year 2012 will be better than 2010
Let's take the whole year off
because man I can't give a toss
I got compassion fatigue like fuck man I dunno what!
I believe the world sucks so much we're just fucked
I feel like I've fallen and I can't get up. I feel stuck.
Like they got us blocked at every turn, and we don't never ever learn
All the plankton died when the tides rised another .5 degrees?
Geez. I hate it when that happens. I guess I better get to rappin
flocks of birds fell out of the sky and nobody seems to know why?
Maybe they got sick of signing petitions and they all left to go fishin
There's a brand new rampant deadly disease, and an epedemic outbreak of fleas
and I need somebody else to give a shit, somebody tag in instead of me
The got CORRECTIVE RAPE overseas??? No thanks! None for me please.
I mean sure I feel awful about all the dirt the world does do to young ladies
but I've felt awful about EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE since like the 80s
I got compassion fatigue like fuck man I dunno what!
I believe the world sucks so much we're just fucked
I feel like I've fallen and I can't get up. I feel stuck.
Like they got us blocked at every turn, and we don't never ever learn
You say the powers that be finally finished buying congress the other day?
Paid off all the ones they could pay. And made the rest just go away?
You don't say! HEY! I learned to edit video today.
Wait. They did WHAT to the constitution?
(was that evenanything we were still usin?)
And then the FBI rounded up the last defenders of the Earth to charge em with crimes.
And I'm like MAN why they always gotta do 20,000 bad things at the same time???
Here take ALL the power. I'm takin a nap. Have fun abusin it
And even when I wake up, just clicking around on the internet, lost in it, loosin it
Even had thoughts of tryin ta fix my tv. Start watchin Glee or some shit
Dumb shit. Gum shit. Bad beer breath on a bumb shit.
Um. Shit. I don't know. I need to get my head back in the game again.
Remind myself that we gon' win. I need to get my second wind. Man!
Gimme a minute. I'll be alright

26. Born Beautiful
You were born to assist your surroundings
feel the EarthBeat pounding
get up and get down and
move through the brush, the water and the air
You were born to care
you were born to get depressed when the world sucks
you were born to give ten times more fucks
and it's okay to say NO! when they try to make dough
off of killing your woes with the pharmaceuticals
Hell NO! We won't go
unless you mean south through the snow.
And you were born beautiful
you sang into this life
You are beautiful still
why'd you stop singing?
(it's indescribably beautiful)
you were born to touch the land, directly with your hands
to soar, to roar, to insist on your demands
it's a pretty good plan, to defend your land base
Why NOT smash these states in their figurative face
You were Not born dependant on the wages they have paid you
born to love through the locks of the fear cage they made you
love is made of wings, shimmering things, for luminious beings
and flight is so freeing
And you were born beautiful
you sang into this life
You are beautiful still
why'd you stop singing?
We were born for each other, sisters and brothers
given our druthers we weave through each other's
existance, we exist to assist
through our children we persist
we were born of the mist and return to the dust
in between we're sposed to clean up
And we were born beautiful
we sang into this life
and we're beautiful still
SING!
(it's indescribably beautiful)
You were born to sweat in the heat and shiver in the cold
born young and wet to die dry and old
but truth be told the nerve endings are worth the trade off
adrenaline's just there to show you what you're made of
you can face down fear for the ones you hold dear
if you live life to give life you made love
Just as you were born beautiful
you sang into this life
still beautiful
still beautiful
still beautiful
still beautiful

27. Powerless Against It (fmb/ BTV-classic)
Turn the key and press the gas and just go park on the highway
And sip some Starbucks coffee it's the dawn of a same day
Except your working much harder now but still collecting the same pay
And when you stop to pump ya gas ya ass ain't got that much to say
Okay, Don't make no eye contact, you spozed to keep to yourself
Don't waste time talking to nobody, you got to try and get that wealth
Just do for self, forget about ya family's mental health
"They'll forgive thee once they see HDTV on the shelf"
So anyway, What you know about these gas plantations?
location, location, location, location
that's why we had to take their nation, it helps you at the gas station
It's convenient to ignore... the war for global domination
Go ahead feel powerless against it, just stay stuck in the sand
don't try too hard to understand, and just keep helpin the man
Look ya children in the eye, and lie, and say you'll do the best that you can
But you have that remote in your hand, while they're lynching the land
We need to export McCulture? What's up with that?
Caucasions teachin Asians how to eat to be fat
and blacks... droppin dead from major heart attacks
because you're trained to eat whack and make that money stack
it's a fact! Close your eyes, it will still be a fact
pizza hut + Jenny Craig = you've been attacked
And down here the people's needs keep loosing out to the space chase
I think therefore I am... in their database
They don't create no cure no more, you get a pill to maintain
and the cost goes up so get your cup and pour your dough down the drain
somehow you're shackled to the system but you can not see the chain
don't open no bills, just pop them pills that be soothin ya brain
you think you're sane, cause they keep sayin this is how you should live
don't try to find no better way, don't strive to find no fuck to give
Go ahead feel powerless against it, just stay stuck in the sand
don't try too hard to understand, and just keep helpin the man
Look ya children in the eye, and lie, and say you'll do the best that you can
But you have that remote in your hand, while they're lynching the land

29. Love (w/ Sophia)
I bow my head and say - Namasté - and it's true
the beauty in me - sure does see - the beauty in you
I sure do - love the way you do the things you do
And I love the way I do - things I do - when I'm with you too
you don't move too slow or too fast
You like love and love for love to last
and me... let's see... ... I like the way that you don't comb your hair
I like the funky clothes that you wear
and all of the little things that you do
make me want to fall all in love with you
And I love love
fallin in love, bein in love, stayin in love
I love love
fallin in love, bein in love, stayin in love
I love love
fallin in love, bein in love, stayin in love
I love love, I love it
I love it, I love it, I love it
The way you boogie down is so second to none,
your exploding laughter is totally fun,
you shine like the sun - bring joy to every one
and one and one makes three like you and me
you like to snuggle for fun, okay, why didn't'cha say so
a lot of people have a heart that's shaped like a potatoe
but who has a potatoe that's shaped like a heart? Yeah, now that's art
beautiful and smart, we're off to a great start keep doin the do
and just know that I love you
And I love love
fallin in love, bein in love, stayin in love
I love love
fallin in love, bein in love, stayin in love
I love love
fallin in love, bein in love, stayin in love
I love love, I love it
I love it, I love it, I love it
You're not too short, too fat, too pale, or too nuffin
and lemme tell ya somethin - you're quite the tasty muffin
not bluffin, or puffin, or hatin, or debatin
just statin a stance on what to do on our date and
we should do our duty and dance - go put your booty in pants
good chance a good sweat will enhance the romance
at first glance - could clearly see you was a cutie
crushed on you for years and years and yours truly
is a beautiful bod to behold
going once, going twice, going gold
so sold - so sweet and so smoove
and I LOVE THE WAY YOU MOVE
And I love love
fallin in love, bein in love, stayin in love
I love love
fallin in love, bein in love, stayin in love
I love love
fallin in love, bein in love, stayin in love
I love love, I love it
I love it, I love it, I love it

30. When We Win
04:04
|
|||
When we win, what we win is a lot less stress
you clean a lot less when you don't make a mess
ah yes. But it's not like all chaos ends
but the healing begins and we'll all have new friends
When we win the winds of change blow, we'll just know
to rise and face the sun, ready set go
all the people have a say in what we're startin
we turned jail cells to gardens, no mo begging for pardons
hardened hearts, get thawed out
love light, is gonna shine HELLA bright (no doubt!)
travel as needed, as borders get deleted
mistakes of the past need not be repeated
listening intently is now back in fashion
along with singing to the sunrise and dancing with passion
and you get the jist
it's bliss to exist now that we live like this
When we win all kinds of ignorance are through
you can get to know us, why we like what we do
and I'll put in work to understand you too
Hot Damn! I can't wait to meet you,
greet you, treat you well, ...
psyched as HELL, to think it all started off with a rebel yell
be a self starter, learn to hug harder
you'll fit right in once you learn to barter
stop body shaming, victim blaming
matri-patri-quality reclaiming
wear what you will, live and let live
give as you get as you get as you give
as you learn as you go so you grow and you thrive
We won! Wonderful time to be alive
How will it feel when we, finally get free
all the way free, will feel as good as can be
You'll see, from the vantage point of a tree
suburban sprawl so glad that all stopped
no more endless acres of monoculture crops
no more generation gaps. Screw that crap!
youngest to oldest got each others' back
When we win what it matter bout the color of your skin
never let that silliness divide us again
Somalian to Iceland we understand
each other as beautiful
not overworked but dutiful
finally suitable to take on the task of restoration
our putrid past was just preparation
and everybody's talents and gifts combine to uplift,
bridging the rifts, we welcome the shift
if / you know what I mean?
you really wanna go green? Look to simple machines
harness human power where we can
the real power of man(kind), has BEEN in our hands
we can all be in charge, we can all be employed
the solutions they've hidden can now be deployed
undam the waters, let wild fires burn
let the Earth do her job let life live and learn
as time cleans the plants, the plants clean the air
and we can THINK about how many people and where
Yeah, we lead when it's needed, but you lead next
power with not power over it's based on respect
come correct. be present. Present your best self
self care. Be prepared. Good health's the real wealth
assume good intentions in our daily dealings
assessed on success in expressing our feelings
been a long time coming but a change is now here
we won 'cause love is greater than fear
Yeah
when we win
when we win
when we win
when we win
when we win
when we win
when we win
when we win
when we win

32. Boxes 4 People
03:04
|

On the first day of Christmas my culture gave to me
So many damn people I cain't breathe
the stairwells stink, brown water out the sink
the kids have all seen dead bodies, what are they supposed to think
This is life on the brink of being burried alive
There ain't enough for everyone to survive, let alone thrive
But in the governor's mansion there's a plan of perfect purity
Juvy to County to Maximum Security
Holidays are comming and we got boxes for the people
Steadily makin' more so we can give em out equal
In a money made nightmare the only thing free
Iron and steel, plexiglass and concrete
Oh how we used to play back in the day
Foot races at dawn, milk crate hoopin till the lights came on
Now we're gone, passed out or passed on
passed over as people, you get the bottle or the steeple
Steve got ground up in their war machine
Since Amir found the heroine he ain't been seen
Ottis is okay, PS3s his life away
But me I'm big time stay, sittin in the Pelican Bay
Holidays are comming and we got boxes for the people
Steadily makin' more under the thumb of the eagle
In a money made nightmare the only thing free
Iron and steel, plexiglass and concrete
One day it struck me as I sat in this cage
most days I put in mad work for one tenth of minimum wage
I ran my mouth, I spoke out. That was before
I got accused of being in a gang I never even heard of before
in these jingle cell jails, I'm just a victim of the SHU sales
I guess dead men ain't the only ones who can tell no tales
Economy of scale for the police, the judges, the public defenders
The townsfolk have jobs a plenty beating on formerly nonviolent offenders
No other developed nation has so many boxes for their population
Cuz we thought of it first criminal justice industialization
Boxes are comming and we got holidays for the people
Steadily makin' more 'cuz soon poor will be illegal
In a money made nightmare the only thing free
Iron and steel, plexiglass and concrete

To any kinda place that pays 50 cents a day
where you're chained to your job, & your job is where you stay
* I got a hole in my pockets, no juice in my wall socket
* And a half a dozen friends askin when I'm gonna come out and rock it
I got so hungry I could smell it, I got a tale I tell it,
I got that "eye of the tiger", I'm trying to find a pawn shop to sell it
* we need gas heat and electric
* HDTV station select it
* extra credit report correct it
* I'm a bill collector if there's a bill I collect it
Real talk, I don't floss, I can't walk the walk
they say talk is cheap, but are THEY in a studio when They talk?
* F'real, don't delay, press play and record it
* I could free flow fo-ever but yo we can't afford it
And still the talent shines thru, Hoo, you know how we do
* Yeah we broke but we hope we gave you somethin to step to

35. Raised by a pack of
You might not know it to look at me
But I was raised by a pack of...
Women
Hey. That's who stayed to raise the baby
Moms, gramma and the landlady
I knew more about menstruation than my first girlfriends
I knew about chocolate and brain stems
But not so much about long stems or eye liner
That just wasn't the kind of women we were
I was raised by a pack of women
I was scared of all the same things that all the other little boys were scared of
PLUS I got to be scared that when I grew up some man was gonna treat me like shit
Leave me huddled behind a locked door with nothing but a kitchen knife between me and...
and..
well I can't say for certain
but certainly something aweful
are men even worth the trouble?
I might skip them altogether.
Whatever.
I was raised by a wild pack of women
My father was named mom and she threw quite a bomb
just enough over my head so that I had to jump to catch it
And spike it in the end zone
strut in front of the imagined pretend men
flex my muscles again
spike, rince, repeat.
sending pretend foes to defeat
enough times to try the patience of the top ten most tolerant fathers
or at least that's my best guess
I don't really know the rest
We'd watch the football guys on the tv together
The padded titans with the bulging muscles
Crash,
smash,
Cash!
And then the pretty ladies would puffle their pom-poms
oh, me and moms
cheer, cry, laugh
but by the 3rd half
we'd probably be discussing what neighbor
needed a favor
I was raised by women
I feel like I know them too well
but they meet me and can't tell
I should come with a smell
(and by that I mean, a different smell)
I don't know if I've ever even seen a carborator
But blindfold me and I can disassemble your vibrator
I never knew what it was but it made a cool buzz
and Darth Vader used it to torture Han Solo
And then I'd hear mom's key and the door and put it back where it goes so
caaaaaaarefully that's she never know
that I played with the toys she was too stingy to share
so there!
Yeah, I was raised by a pack of strong, wise and wonderful women.
We all had to figure out how to be a single mother together
and I play for their team now.

36. My Right Hand Goes... (featuring MC Vendetta) [fmb fudgychewy]
I should have a microphone
when I'm sitting in my house alone
pants hung so low, you know I'm a winner
while I'm kneedin the dough, riggity-rapin at my dinner
there should be a light show, there should be a front row
we could go toe to toe
because I am a rapper... I know because my right hand goes like THIS!
* It's V for Vendetta, the go getta
* I Rock Hard!
* And still my laté brings all the boys to the yard pah-tay

I should have tims and rims just a spinnin
I should have big booty girls just a grinnin

REAL rapper at heart man... cause this is how my arm went
* Rappity rap rap rap I don't give a crap / What you think

* no matter What your right hand can do
who am I? Who am I wise guy? I'll tell you who am I.
I'm a guy what walks in the sky. An' I kin fly
I got my big balloon hands, and some evil hench mans
and a sinister plan to just bomb, bomb Iran
I am a heavy heavy breather in a big funny hat
and I go peanut butter jelly with a baseball bat
Take That! Y'mom and I are goin on a date Jar Jar
No! I'm not head of catering, I run the frickin Death Star
so save yar heart attack and stop humpin around
lookin like a fool with your pants on the ground
You no class clown. I'm a CRAZY FROG! Got a hollow log to scop with
so don't pop poop with the P, I'm the Poopsmith
say what you want about how I'm a jerk
but I got my shovel, my boots on, I'm going to work
* and fine footwaer is important if you wanna be cool
* Fool! Those shoes SUCK! But these shoes RULE!
so Charlie climb onboard the choo-choo shoe and check your map
(Ding!) Fries are done. (NO!) It's a trap!
Ack! Get back! Get back you little squirt.
Charlie you bit me! AND THAT REALLY HURT!
* some jerk broght me apple juice at my dayjob and they wouldn't redeem my deposit
* So then I got out my barreta, and then we took it to the closet
* where the ground was so sticky it's like chocolate rain was on everythain
* n some uninvited United cat, threw Brrrn's guitar up underneath our plane
* and they didn't wanna fix it well, anyone could tell by how long it took
* And now you wanna be my friend on facebook? Man look.
* Let me use your myspace, dog, I'll hook you up, when I get my riches
* I already have four... fingers! Wait. Do I have stitches?
Yeah Chad you got em bad homie all across your vent
Now it whistles like Wooo Wooo n we can't tell what you meant
But me I rhyme on time becuz I'm Benny Lava
I can do anything good. I like my dad and my momma
I am Sparta, I am Sam, I'm the Man, I can cough
I know why the one girl's crying, it's because Adolph is so pissed off
that someone put a hat on a ketboard cat
and made her sway, numa numa numa hey!
some people on the screen can turn an LOL into a great big OMG (shawtay!)
I'm the non-hipster hippie trickster always on the go
and I'm a rapper, I know, Because... Yo. Don't TAZE me Bro!

39. I-Uh
what do I want for my daughter?
clean air. Clean water. The chance to see an otter.
And there ough ta still be birds, bugs and bees
and puh-lease, can there still be some trees
you can see it in the way a young college aged man
throws a rock at a parking lot pidgen because he can
we're raised these days waging war against the Earth
But for you it will be different from the day of your birth
when your mom and I loved you into existance
under the sign "respect existance or expect resistance"
so love the whole world with persistence
like we you no matter the distance
we cucooninated you, some day you'll turn into a beauty-love-o-fly
spread your love so far you'll never die
see the destroyers of the Earth and look them in the eye
like I am not a guy, I am I, Hi
Hey Hiya Aya, Adinkra, Not afraid of you,
goddess of the skies I rise, strong and true
Woman Warrior wielding a white flag ready
lose or win wading in to untangle the spaghetti
I see the sun that radiates so great in the sky and I, Uh!...
I feel the waves that freed the slaves oh my and I, Uh!...
As the land gives way to the sand and the tide I-I, Uh!...
I feel heard and feel pride and it's alright outside I, Uh!...
What do I want for my little girl?
Well, there could still be a world,
for a start, And I will try to do my part
livin life by the labor of my own two feet
as I transport us through the streets
where one day I saw as clearly as the sun in the sky
in an ol' wandrin man, wit a damn near tear in his eye
who stated quite clearly without averting his gaze,
without stopping or slowing down, said "Yeah. I miss those days"
He probly knew the ache in my back, like it was yesterday
the sacrifice, time that I lack, he said it anyway
so I just can't take it for granted, and never do
the gift that is you, my little dream come true
but some dudes are the type to bring a gun to a knife fight
so I hope you'll benefit by what I've learned in my life, right
don't never to the ever let others dominate you
but then niether to the either try to tell everyone what to do
no you... should know the best way to talk is to teach
and real eyes realize and see the beauty in each
clearly dear ears that know to listen will learn
and just accept Babylon's abominations will burn
follow your heart with fleet feet don't just stand and yearn
but do choose to pay your dues when you should wait your turn
some haters are gonna hate but wait don't be concerned
the cred that comes when you create equates to haters you've earned
I see the sun that radiate so great in the sky and I, Uh!...
I feel the waves that freed the slaves oh my and I, Uh!...
As the land gives way to the sand and the tide I-I, Uh!...
I feel heard and feel pride and it's alright outside I, Uh!...

40. g.e.a. #3 (fmb/ fudgychewy)
I'm not the Lorax, I don't speak for the trees
but my rap name is Alex, I speak through the trees
sometimes speak to the trees
(could be worse. Could be a jellyfish)
and I listen carefully, so I clearly can see
that they speak back to me, I can appreciate their needs
so when they cage rivers and groves behind dams and fences
I'm preparing to fuck shit up and pay the consequences
cause I've tried but can't identify real choices for me
in the land of the free, See we know all about Democracy
you can either vote for Rick, to come and crack you with a big stick
or you can vote for Mike, who'll really clock you with a lead pipe
and you're like / no no no. A lead pipe's not what I like
so now your skull is getting thick from getting WHACKED/ WITH A STICK
next time you bend over I suggest you come back up with a brick
and just start swingin and scrapping and finally makin somethin happen
for all we Know they're on the Ropes so let's drop it like it's hot
You anger is a Gift, MAN... and look how many presents you got
sometimes we need to RAGE the machine All appart
sometimes we can use art and just grease the siezed parts
but regardless we don't fight each Other over Tactics
we just Scream SOLIDARITY and we get each other's Back kid
(It's an attack. It's an attack on the lives of our children and everybody else's children)
I see the need for change so I'm planting the seed
I'm trying not to get caught in the labyrinth of greed
I never been in a fistfight, haven't had the need
But I once bit a carrot in Reno, just to watch it BLEED
(You know where you are? You're in the desert baby! You GONNA DIE!)
It's like a jungle sometimes it makes me wonder
How many rivers can you choke off, mountains blasted asunder
Logging more laws to insure more logs get lost
Harassin Sherman Austin, tryin ta teach us the cost in resistance
they're just teaching me persistance
and insistance on putting Earth first in every instance
So what you know about
the fun in the summer sun wildflower plains
an autumn wiggle in the middle as you giggle in the rain
after winter we can spring back onto the tire swing
and remember everything, Oh! I'm about to sing
(while slidin down rainbows?)
there's not a word yet
for old friends who just met
but some day there will be
holla if you feel me
It's like that, that's what it's like
Colage artist on the mic on a rickety bike
so fuck you I won't do what you tell me to
I'm a human being God Dammit! My life has value.
and I try to be simple and plain and still some say
okay, so his rap name is Alex, but what is g.e.a.
man it's just me, I got a PhD, in Freedomology
and you can have one too, don't you see?
g.e.a. and I've come a long way
to say, peace & love & tolerance & justice
