An army of suits

An army of suits
Traitors like sharks in minor facilities
Tailors honest to be seen
But they also need this money
Covering up naked lies with expensive fabrics, so clean
I serve them with my mouse clicks, they answer so mean

In my heart I want to be saved
But nobody can save me but me
The outside world is going to be craved
They have raised the fee

The hood is not serving any more
Riches over riches leave the poor
My heart beats to the beat of congregation
No power for a nation
No power for the industry
Plug them all out, set ourselves free

Stop the sellout of the planet,
the people, the animals, the plants,
Don’t cover lies with bullying
Tons of miles to go, but I am in
Community is what we care for, we don’t buy their rants anymore

In a world where separation is the fuel of a fossil nation,
Don’t leave me alone, I am sure
I am sure about the power of belonging
I am sure about creating songs, so together we can sing
Against an army of suits, with their deep pockets.
With their dysfunctional rockets.
Power again to the people, let’s roar

You know what: do leave me alone
To Plan a fine revolution,
To plot for a strong wing of love, of understanding.
We will
We will
We will eventually
We will eventually overcome

Ich schenke dir ein Licht

Ich schenke dir ein Licht,
Gegen die, die dich fressen wollen mit Haut und Haar, gegen die , die dir Schlechtes wollen. Gegen die, die dich übervorteilen und ausnutzen wollen, bis nichts mehr bleibt, was für sie nützlich ist. Gegen die, die dir erzählen, dass du so wie du bist, nicht okay bist.

Ich schenke dir ein Licht:
Du bist okay. Du bist wertvoll. Und du bist wichtig, nicht nur für mich.
Du zählst. Deine Meinung, deine Worte, dein Wille, das alles zählt, nicht nur für mich.
Du bist nicht abhängig davon, was andere über dich denken, und von dir erzählen. Du bist, wer du bist und das ist gut so.

Wenn du dich nicht mehr findest, zurechtfindest, wenn du nicht mehr zurechtkommst:
Schalt das Licht an und schau dich um.
Wer wird geblendet? Wer versucht, das Licht zu löschen? Wer wärmt sich daran? Und wer fragt dich, wie er oder sie helfen kann, dass es nicht wieder ausgeht.
Wer hilft dir, das Licht hell erstrahlen zu lassen?

A new kind of kind

Stuttering through the mud of words
The shining people that listen anyway
I am about to rave through the pieces left of civic engagement
Dancing like I don’t care, but I do

About you, about everything
But how in this world of slumber
Can I not be another number
How can I set free my force

How not to make things worse
In this place, where mountains fade
There is no way to debate
This smile is an invitation 

For luck, for love, for levitation
Heaven sent or raised by hell
Here on earth is where I shall make my peace 
Here is where ends meet so well

Royal Rats

Present Ruins of civilization
Trains to get to Nowhere
Slightly impressive voice
Want to hear them swear
Bad, Bad Choice

Hungry for Madness
It flashes away all the madness around me
All people struggle, All day
Thoughts like rain in november
Roads that are not signed by rubber anymore.

In my body: decline and gore
My soul is flying over it, it wants to remember
But also Wants to get away for sure
240 years from now
Less rain, less green, less a horror show

We fucked up, we survived, 
we rule it, a hot, hot earth, 
no whale sighs in the dirt, 
the rats wait for us to rot away, 
the rats will rule someday

Oh Pan-Demi

Die Worte wollen wissen was wir wünschen zu wirken.
In meinem Sein trägt der Wunsch Früchte, mich zu entdecken.
Das Wollen und die Lust daran erstickt noch in Einsamkeit.
Doch meine Augen finden Fragen und Antworten in deinen Augen.
Der Herd bindet mich nicht und ich will auch sonst an niemanden gebunden sein.
Ich bin frei zu entdecken, wer ich bin.
Ein Mensch, der liebt kennenzulernen, Tiefe Gründe auszuloten und mich dabei tanzend zu versuchen.
Rufe ich die Schatten, sind sie da, mir Erkenntnis zu geben.
Bin ich licht in Momenten der Einsamkeit, für Sorgen bereit.
Bereit mich zu geben.
Bereit zu vergeben.
Bereit zu erleben.

Exploding Seas and Singing Woods





 Heavens doubt my findings
 But to have allies in this drought  
 Is all I want to think of
 This victory of your smile
 
 Hella's mind is thunder
 Mile for mile she wonders
 Zero gravity without any physics law
 Around earth she rambles in awe
 
 Without war and fight
 Still magic lights her side
 We are to rise with knowledge
 Otherwise we'll step over the edge
 
 The planet knows no sin
 No borders will win
 To world peace in one piece
 The colors of exploding seas
 
 Strive the raving forms of life
 No more caging, much more jive
 In some hundred years we will think of this
 As a time of horrors and of bliss
 
 To many lost, so few thrive  
 This is a hell for the living
 Lets ponder and try to be each others allies
 So mother earth can continue giving
 
 My heart is with the wounded knee  
 The dead ones are talking
 My spirit is open wide like earth and sea
 My thoughts on their path endlessly walking  
 
 To whom it may concern
 Just think of childhood memories
 The tree you loved to climb
 The flowers that smelled like remedies
 
 This is a way to talk to strangers
 In hopeful connection
 With hearts open wide
 To all the people of the whole human tribe
 
 Learn to listen, Learn to give
 The end is striped off goods
 Seeds I sow at this grave
 These souls will live in the Singing Woods

Rainbow Colored Symphony

Dancing by painting my writings
Crying out loud the love
For my own spirit beings
Dreaming what the carve
In the cave of my mind

Me, I hurt
Me, I smile
Me, I had to catch this breath
for such a long while

Help me goddess
Don't divide
Too many have died
Raise your fist
And write

My life is a chance to see purple truths
Like in my youth
I've grown a fantastic world of empathy
Like a rainbow colored symphony

These feelings like mountains crumbling
The statue shining through is you, yet stumbling
Over words unsaid
Speaking of what we did in a cloudy bed

Me, I hurt
Me, I smile
Me, I had to catch this breath
for such a long while

Help me goddess
Don't divide
Too many have died
Raise your fist and write

Me, I am hurt
Me, I do smile
Me, I maybe fail
for now I exhale

Help me goddess
Don't divide
Too many have died
Raise your fist
And write

Dear family hold my hand and heart
Don't go out to fight
This beautiful world is worth
To survive

Today I was hurt
Today I smiled
That marvelous day
Has all gone wild

The hours turn to sand
Time paints no lines
I Say No to silence
I Say No to false signs

This is no poem
That calls out for anymore wars to fight
Let peace lead your hand
Let thought be the sword and write

Me, I am hurt
Me, I do smile
Me, I had to catch this breath
for such a long while

Help me goddess
Don't divide
Too many have died
Raise your fist
And sing and dance and paint and write
