Go-A!

Surrounded by heavenly bodies
In every shape and form
None of it matters to me
Solitude is all I want

Hard to imagine a place like this
Where you see things in eternal bliss
No one around gives a damn
But you have water everywhere

There is no torment anywhere
Happiness all the way

The tide is low take a dip
The tide goes high take a sip

Sit in a shack by the beach
Order some breakfast and some tea
Laze the morning in the shade

Get on the bike and ride away
Feel no tension in your way

Get to the next beach and press repeat
I promise, you can do this for weeks

The folk around don’t bother
But some around do matter

Livelihood, the biggest enemy
You'll be fleeced for every penny
In hindsight, it will all fade
The memories will be all that remain

Oh, Goa, you're amazing
Even when the sun is blazing

Just stay the way you are
No matter how near how far

A place where you can Go-A!

Inhuman


Learn the way of the high life
Grow up to be a big shot
But you're still missing shit
From the aforementioned high life

Spit on the sidewalk, inhuman
Trash the road, inhuman
Leave the lights on, inhuman
Burn the oxygen, inhuman

The dogs are wailing, inhuman
The poor are howling, inhuman
The world is crying, inhuman
But you don’t care...
Cause you're inhuman

Follow hypocrisy, inhuman
Put up a facade, inhuman
Say what is tough, inhuman
Do what is easy, inhuman

Respect the pope, inhuman
Diss your dad, inhuman
Salute the president, inhuman
Screw the army, inhuman

Lie to your folks, inhuman
Shy on the world, inhuman
Escape the good, inhuman
Join evil, inhuman

Say A, inhuman
Do B, inhuman
Hail C, inhuman
Ignore D, inhuman

You’re a coward, inhuman
Prick yourself, inhuman
Puff away, inhuman
Down the bottle, inhuman
Drown your sorrows, inhuman

Wake the next day, inhuman
Continue the cycle, inhuman
Hump the world, inhuman

Hypocrisy rules
Faith blues
Emotional diss
Ignorance bliss

Someone oughta slap you, inhuman
Wake the hell up, inhuman
Stop this shit, inhuman
Spare the world, inhuman
Try to be human, inhuman

RUNNING

Lying, cheating, deceit...
What’s the world come to?
Or was it always like this?

The insurance scam
The loan scam
The fodder scam
The software scam

The scams are endless
And hence the shams are endless

The cocky charades and plastic smiles
Never cease to befriend the mind
The deeper the wound
The more you sink
Till you are consumed by glee
And all of you is accounted for

The green is a nasty thing
The smell of it, the feel of it
The habit of it, the want of it
Makes you forget humanity
To the depths of the unknown you fall
Becoming a hungrier beast

Such a part of us it’s become
Guilt doesn't even come up

But, there still lies hope in a few
The ones who think alike
Running the other way

The Wanderer

Sleep in the morning
Wake in the night
Thank the lord you're still alive

Wondering where you were
Confused where you are

An angel on one end
The devil on the other

Rustling between two worlds
He is The Wanderer

In the cold black night
He ventures alone

From the arms of Mary
To the depths of Hades

Feeling the torment everyday
Doing nothing to make it go away

Reunion Bites


At the tender age of 8
You're thrown in the midst of new mates
Living the life of a prince
The school you've gone to is the shit

Years go by with new faces
Growing up seeing changes

The values instilled are there to stay
The wrongs built-in will hopefully go away

Such is the phase of school life
Learn a lot through getting into fights

There are some who do not wish to grow
Trivial bullshit is all they look for
Such was the case back then
10 years later all hasn't changed

Though a decade is a long time to ponder
Going back was so overwhelming that I wonder
Time flew by the nine years I was there
Suddenly I’m back with some who care

The beauty of the school remains as it is
The fields where we weeded look as bright
Blood, sweat and tears
The good, the bad, the fears

Some have grown up to be stars
Some are still whining about bars
Some are leading a peaceful life
Some have gone the anonymous way

Issues there are plenty
Solutions there are tenfold
It’s about who takes the first step
Cause the blame goes in his stead

The rest will still look on
And compare us to the elite ones

Writing this I’ve identified
The problem facing all mayoites

Trying to keep up with the world
Education having absolutely no role

The ego then is still here to stay
Can’t do jack with it in the way!
