Pretty eyes are seen in the sunshine Never mind to pain we be color blind Blue skies disguised by the grey skies Baby cries and drowns out the sweet sigh Everybody telling lies, lies. Everybody selling lies, lies. Everybody living dies, dies, Everybody realize, lies. We all grow then let go of things held in time We all sing the same song, then were gone in time So what are we living for? If we can’t give praise to God? What are we living for, If the road we walk is broad? What are we living for, If we can’t pay God his dues? What are we living for, If his love ain't held in you? Cause, we cry, we sigh, then we go We yell, we fail, then we grow Baptized by the highs and the lows. We strive, revive, then feel pain We kneel, we pray, then feel sane Baptized by the tears and blood stains. Dreams of the love we had before they transform Scenes of the life we yearn to live are reborn Gave up the path I crawled, a path so cruel... Just to get back what God placed in view. Now I can really let go No longer living life slow I’m following a new flow Now I can see my seed grow No wallowing in sins ways Now I can see the sun blaze In love with being God’s slave No longer fearing deaths grave No longer fearing deaths plague....

Children suffer pain, then play it out Parents feel the same, then pray about Better roads, lighter loads, Clearer minds. Piercings in the heart that only love could heal From Fear and theory tales told with hopes to kill Faith in God, now praying's hard, now children cry. No one blind sees the signs, but the time tells the crimes, time sheds truth, time gives proof. No one trust seems secure, in a world so obscure, What's faith for, man’s unsure And were so ungodly, were so ungrateful, see the world in your eyes, and you find hope in you, hope in me, hope in man, hope in dreams, hope in lies, hope in pain, hope in mankind.. But what can man do? We all pass in time Everybody knows the cycle, we fight until we're hopeless, somebody grabs the rifle, nobody ever notice, no. That's what man do... Everybody knows the cycle, we fight until we hopeless, somebody grabs the rifle, nobody ever notice. Momma cries, baby dies in her arms, that's wrong, They callin’ on Jesus, tryna to heal the pain, going through the reasons, why things aint change, All the papers, papers got the story up front! All this Bad news, Bad news, that's what they all want! Somebody bought her daisies momma's going crazy, she just want her baby... They want hope, they want dreams, they want life, The unseen...

EDENS ROAD 03:10
I feel like love is a place for us We traveled for miles my dear Here is the reason Our dreams come true within this lifetime For once I feel like love is real I'll never forget, you are the reason Our dreams came true within our lifetime Now I feel like you And you feel like me We can run these roads We can be carefree Forever, we got forever And these roads we paved before can now be new. Sweet maple, grand oak, redwoods, Pine slopes Our dreams, our hopes, all green, we spoke Words of a future promise to make it Our thoughts reshaped Sweet wine from the vine It's free just take And loving you is natural, so divine. Those Blue Birds and Sparrows They Sing perfect tunes They land on these barrels And dance just for you Those Love Birds teach lessons Love Lessons, life lessons, Gods blessings No stress. And these roads we paved before can now be new.

Innocence is so pure Common sense is so pure When I look into your eyes I see Stems within your poet tree Autumn leaves and peace surrounds you Summers Spring cannot contain All the loyalty around you, in the presence of your name. In the coldest Winter seasons, your affection is the Sun, cunning words cannot deceive you, because you ponder every one. So don’t ever lie... Don't you ever lie, don't you ever kill us all. Don't you ever lie, don't you ever. Lies kill us all. Don't you ever lie, Lies a killer.. You’ll kill us all... Don't you ever lie, Lies a killer.. Lies kill us all. Many say that they love you Yet despise your eyes Everyone is above you Praises you deny Those heartless ones That raise their sons To breath betrayal You flee from them. Those Heartless lives That spread their lies And breed betrayal They won’t survive, to kill us all To kill us off, to kill us all Lies, kill us all.

about

PORTRAITS OF A HUMAN KIND
Digital Album includes a 19 Page Lyric Booklet with purchase.

Portraits of a human kind had to be built like an abstract subject on a canvas. The words needed to be extremely detailed but simple enough to fit the work, and sound pleasing. When I think about the Human Kind, we are very complex, we are all in search for the same thing though, we were created that way. The album had to say that without needless words, so when I wrote these songs it required a lot of time to develop the pictures. It's been 7 years in the making, seriously. If you love dissecting lyrics please check out the meanings of each song by intently listening, it's fun sometimes to see if you can understand the expressions.

It has been a few years, but time is a beautiful thing. 2020 is a year that we will never forget, I just wanted to also add a memory, a few Portraits Of A Human Kind. Hope you all enjoy the album! By the way 11/9/2020 translates to (20/2020) I hope you see the vision, and enjoy the music.


Most instruments were played out of tune.
Reason: The Humankind believes that we are in tune, but in reality we are actually out of tune.

(Except tracks 5, and 9) but vocals on those tracks are slightly off tune for the purpose of following the theme.
