Hook
I don't know what u been told
But the love I have is free
Dancing down in the deep dirty river
Ranch water and some tree
The chickens hot and the music's on
The band is playing your favorite song
Feets is moving from dusk til dawn
Playing and Plucking all night long
Verse
It always happens in the night time
It always happens when the lights low
I'm busting out of my old self
Becoming new cause that's my life goal
Hook
I don't know what u been told
But the love I have is free
Dancing down in the deep dirty river
Ranch water and some tree
The chickens hot and the music's on
The band is playing your favorite song
Feets is moving from dusk til dawn
Playing and Plucking all night long
I got roots that's deep as all hell
You know my hands will grow a tall tree
Let me let some light in
Shine your light Shine your light Shine your light On me

GROW
Buried me
With all that pain
Branched out and wanted to leaf
They left me
Down in the dirt
They didn't know I was a seed
GROW
Swimming in your water under a bridge
Picture still life thru our Photo's synthesis
I feel brown when I'm down
But I see the green in you
I know our loves in bloom
Although the world has gloom
GROW
GROW
don't you want your freedom
you can get it on the dance floor
you wanna go crazy
that's all you do
you can play this on the weekday
but it's better on the weekend
we smoke and drink
a couple of brews
we gotta grow up
so we can get down
you gotta grow up
so we can get down
dressing up or dressing down
you are feeling good and ready
it's a special occasion
gotta tell it to the world now
we dance and fall and play it cool
we gotta grow up
so we can get down
you gotta grow up
so we can get down

Favorite - D
Diamond in the rough
Wind beneath my wings
You've been the reason I've changed
Light up in the sky
Water when I sail
You've got space all in my brain
I just wanna fly
Hold hands with my fallen angel
We can't be denied
You gave love from all of its angles
You're my
You're my favorite
(I don't wanna see you go cuz)
Lay awake at night
Thought of love first sight
U held me up like your baby
You were more than love
And the stars above
I seem to search for you lately
Still in my God I trust
Even tho there's been no church in a minute
Your arms they feel like home
Your soul is this song that I've finished
You're my
You're my favorite
(I don't wanna see you go cuz)

MOTHER'S EYES

Mother's Eyes
Moving through the country
Girl driving fast
Heading to the town
Head by the window
Typing on my cell phone
Cause it’s what I know
I am the voice of revolution
I am the voice of the free
I am not a panther born rich
Can I just be me
In my ripped jeans
Hook:
With my mother’s eyes
With my father’s face
And grandma's hands
With my mother’s eyes
And my father’s face
And grandpa’s stance
God said he got me
When the devil comes a knocking
Just gotta praise him
And even when I struggle
With the women that I cuddle
Still gotta raise him (i love my son)
No body is perfect
But I’m definitely worth it
Won't go unseen
I just wanna plant my seed
And name it after me
In my ripped jeans
Hook:
With my mother’s eyes
With my father’s face
And grandma's hands
With my mother’s eyes
And my father’s face
And grandpa’s stance
Bridge:
100 years around the sun (4x)
I just pray
We make it home someday
I just pray
We are on our way
It don't matter
If it’s gold
They still feel like chains
It don’t matter where you go
You are on my brain
In my ripped jeans
Hook:
With my mother’s eyes
With my father’s face
And grandma's hands
With my mother’s eyes
And my father’s face
And grandpa’s stance

On the search for stardust
And poison
Our family fight
you were rich without me
I was happy before I knew u
Now I cant go to sleep
Unless I hear u breathe
Or feel u breathe
Or be near u breathing
Lets commit suicide in a church
I’ll wear my finest clothes
Lets commit suicide in a church
No one has to know
Star crossed love affair
We were meant to be
Star crossed love affair
We were meant to be
Driving down west Hollywood
Somehow, we stop in Brooklyn
My love went up in a cloud
U raining down
Inside our house there a sound
U went from naked
To panties
To wedding gowns
Are you ready?
I think about u daily
It ain't fair verona

FOR YOU

For You
doN’t believe in dinosaurs
But I believe in your love
Whatchu around like medicine
Need you when I’m sick
Don’t believe in Wedding Bells
Or white picket fences
But for you
I will make the exception
On these words that I mention
Hook: 4u (4x)
Standing on a rooftop
Shots on a helicopter
Ur love is making me drunk
And without you
By my side
I am liable to jump
So save me from me
From who I could be
I don't wanna be (3x)
Lost - unless it’s
Hook: 4u (4x)

ROSES AND GRENADES

if I could rule the world
I'd rule the world with love
Smother you all with hugs
Clink til we break our glasses
Toast to the life of the masses
Cloud our minds with drugs
Paint the wall
With our blood
Give out truth
Take in trust
Live until we die
Spread my life
To the stars
Hear the voices
Of our God
Lost and found
Our smile
Roses and Grenades (4x)
Walking through
A burnt green pasture
With napalm on my hands
In my eyes
Shined the sun
And lit the blood
Of all my friends
Put my ear
to the ground
Of this looted
Strip mall
Listen where
My body ends
Put my spirit
To my God
Then I load
My Gun
And make a sinner's
Soul Amends
Roses and Grenades (4x)

MAN

MAN
There was a man
With dirt and blood
On his face
He was a man
Who lived and died
By his faith
You don't deserve him lady
U can't tell him what to do
He lives on a quasar
By the northern star
Underneath the cool
Riding on an iron horse
Holding coals he crushed
To diamonds
What is love but
The mining cost
Of finding gold I'm our alliance
Lost the battle with sun
Seeing Icarus fall with the raindrops
Dreaming in color
Of the future counting these train stops

ONLY
Good Morning Glory
I just rose from Jericho
You know my story
How my leaves tend to fall
Petal to the Metal
Dilate my Iris
Had to live for me to find this
No signature for you to time this
Only Nothing Lasts Forever [3x]
Only
Our roots are sprouting
Environment of Chaos
Impossible to take off
For our freedom there's a seance
Pedal to the Metal
That Psychic read my palm tree
Kiss my lover on her two lips
A dandy lying rather calmly
Only Nothing Lasts Forever [3x]
Only
Gone with the wind
You are
Tell me where can I find my love

DUST

Girl you know I'm from the lonely earth
There I'll return
You see how much I spent on this ghetto life
how much I earned
A busy bee
of luxury
But it all stays when ur gone
You can't take it with you
got ur gold
But you cold
When ur love was all there all along
Now let that chorus hit you
DUST IN THE WIND
V2
You only live once
at least they say you do
Well what if they were wrong
You get one true love
Or maybe two
The way to truth is long
A mystery
I'm living free
Take the first step to say I miss you
Tears in my tissue
We would scratch u would fight
Paparazzi read all our issues
Now let that chorus hit you

OTHERSIDE
Life is a stage
And we all just players
Walking thru a looking glass
While the curtains raised
Everydays a show
No rehearsal
Lost in the moment
As the script turns
On the other side
Love is a candle
Lit the fire’s burning
Brown sugar in a black tea
The water’s hot
We are music notes
Played loud by god
We are all he things we are
And some we’re not
On the other side
Jet plane off the runway
Moon lit on a sunday
We’ll meet again one day
