Warrior 03:18
i am a warrior i'm not gonna worry anymore as long as my hair is growing as long as my Self i'm knowing as long as my heart is open then into the truth i'm going we came here to melt what's frozen we came here to mend what's broken yeah into the truth i'm going i cut through the lines they made at home in the light & shade i'm at home in the darkest cave so with fire is how i play i told myself i'd be brave so with fire is how i play i let my pain be mine i let my darkness shine i let all my darkness out i have taken the warriors vow i draw my chest to my chin i let all the love come into my bones my blood my skin i let it begin

it's the end of the age of the automobile but i just wanna drive when i die i'll be keeping it real but now i'm still alive she said she'd go anywhere in my car with me i wanna listen to the radio instead of watching tv i'm a man that's what i am, unfortunately the only thing i know how to do is remove myself from society but i know that's not the way, but that's just how i feel today it's the end of the age of the automobile but i just wanna drive when i die i'll be keeping it real but now i'm still alive driving around with the windows down dream a little dream of me i moved back to the same damn town cause i don't wanna be free i'm a man that's what i am, at least i'm trying to be i miss you like the sun miss the moon but ain't that the way it's supposed to be but i know that's not the way, but i hope it works out some day it's the end of the age of the automobile but i just wanna drive when i die i'll be keeping it real but now i'm still alive

we can't keep no secrets no more you can keep playing the game but i stopped keeping score because the fight that was on in my mind was taking my life the lies i was telling myself just ain't right somebody else might take the bait but i'm not gonna bite yeah i fell but i'm gonna pick myself up off the floor we can't keep no secrets no more cause everything i wanna say, somebody already said before my mind is open like a window but my heart's open like a door we can't keep no secrets no more we can't keep no secrets no more i wanna be like jesus but i'm afraid of being poor & i've been being afraid so long & waiting til i was sure yeah i've been being afraid so long & waiting til i was pure so i went to see the doctor & i think i've found the cure we can't keep no secrets no more my friend ben told me that this year everyone's gonna stop lying & my friend edwin told me that it's time to stop being a dog & start being a lion so i guess that i'll just keep on trying
7.
don't know what i'm gonna do today, wanna light a fire across the milky way wanna lay down my thoughts on a page & keep the fire burning don't know what i'm gonna do next year almost lost myself in a place of fear gonna make my heart & my mind so clear & keep my back from turning cause saturn's coming to the place it was when i was born saturn's coming to the place it was when i was born don't know how to say my dreams out loud feeling like a baby feeling like a cloud always tryin'a make my momma proud & keep my spirit yearning dont' know how i'm gonna make it work fucking around feeling like a jerk gonna love myself til it doesn't hurt & keep on with my learning

Broken Glass 04:45
i wanna travel, i wanna chill my mind tends to rattle but i need to be still need to be still, watch the sun comb up the sky and i open up my third eye this life is broken glass, broken glass reassembled there are so many paths, many pasts make me tremble sometimes i live in the city, sometimes i live on the hill sometimes my heart feels empty, but i gotta know how to fill fill it with love instead of filling it with fear and i hope that the difference is clear this life is broken glass, broken glass reassembled there are so many paths, many pasts make me tremble gotta go outside in the sunshine, go outside in the rain gotta be alive for the good times, be alive for the pain because the pain is part of growing up it's the same half-full half-empty cup this life is broken glass, broken glass reassembled there are so many paths, many pasts make me tremble
9.
Only Child 02:11
i'm on my own again, i'm on my own & i feel i've found a new home, yes i feel i've found a new home all alone sparks are flying from my hand don't i feel like the man that i am light was shining, now it's gone sometimes it's hard just to feel at home feel at home in the soul time is scary & time is weird & sometimes i just wanna disappear but i'm right here so i turn to my friends & i turn to my lover cause i ain't got no sisters & i ain't got no brothers i'm an only child always looking for the smiles & we're all in the same place at the same time & don't it make you feel like crying
