“Fast Times At Low-Mid High” (Verse 1) Grasp the pen and push it past the mind To unleash this rhyme out of the dirty kind Not to be unkind but to uncreate crime To shine in my time and illuminate the sign So I scheme to dominate all my duty Make it action packed like a Bruce Willis movie Where the whole cast blasts phat gats But not for me cause I need some naps Nothings more aggravating than not getting your way If not getting your way was a job I’d be paid But it’s not so I just remain poor And I go door to door and of course remain ignored And I’m only soar when I’m thrown off property Or I’m soar after they beat me properly Probably something I wouldn’t put pride in So I try my best to glide out while pushing tin But sin constantly settles in the passenger seat Sick and tired cause I continue to fight the beast Yes I do I did and I will And my will gets me by close enough to thrill (Hook) Fast times, fast times, fast times, fa-fast times Fast times, fast times, fast times, fa-fast times Fast times, fast times, fast times, fa-fast times Fast times, fast times, fast times (Verse 2) Drill down deep and reap the benefits Until it rips and slips right out of my grip Up up and away past the blackest day Say everything alright for the freshest array Right this moment a monumental occasion It’s okay to spend a lifetime seeking the son That’s a quest for a reason since he freed us So clean the dirt off your shell-toed addidas Create a ruckus and ro-rock rock on Till everything flies by and all else is gone So I get it off my chest to put an end to the buck Writing raps to get past a string of bad luck Chuck the fuss like a hundred mile an hour heater Whipping the rhythm like a hundred egg mix beater Childlike to mature young to old Time flies by to quick to capture and hold So I put my voice on tracks remembered forever With legends line by line letter by letter All I need are some tasty waves a cool buzz and I’m fine And if I’m here and you’re here isn’t it out time (Hook) Fast times, fast times, fast times, fa-fast times Fast times, fast times, fast times, fa-fast times Fast times, fast times, fast times, fa-fast times Fast times, fast times, fast times

“Dead Man Talking” (Verse 1) Cells locked up chains bound up Everything was wrong starting from the ground up Turn the volume to the silence of the sound up Reattaching cut strings becoming all wound up I wont let those words pass my lips That will admit to something that I possibly never did But I rid the allegations of the highest bid I can’t go back to before I stopped being a kid So I search beyond a reasonable doubt Why I’m here and can’t find my own way out The night is dark I can’t break the lock I can say a lot but nobody can hear my talk Walking down a path leaves my words at a loss Walking down a path unsure I’ll make it across Walking down a path leaving my life lost Walking down a path leading to the cross (Hook) X2 I’m a dead man talking I’m a dead man talking I’m a dead man talking I’m a dead man talking (Verse 2) I’m walking down a path I never thought I’d be lead Trailed by a path of my blood poured red And I dread the fact that its got me trembling As I’m watching life’s puzzle disassembling I’m speaking a message for anybody willing to hear Talking a mile a minute I’ve spoken globally for year The only one waiting is death I’ve got nothing to fear My heart poured out I’ve got no fluid left for a tear So you wont find me crying because of my position Except when on the edge I implore you to listen All I need is one person to sit by my bed And hear the words I have left to be said So here I am left with nothing to loose But to accept my destiny the only choice but to choose I admit the sentence and the pass of judgment But I don’t look at execution as a form of punishment As I listen to myself I realize my faults That hiding from truth was a personal assault Reality is something I can no longer deny Heaven suffers violence and so do I In order to live I have to die In order to live I have to die In order to live I have to die I have to die (Hook) X2 I’m a dead man talking I’m a dead man talking I’m a dead man talking I’m a dead man talking (Bridge) I’m a dead man I’m a dead man I’m a dead man I’m a dead man

“The Blood Red Line” (Bridge) X2 Cross the line Cross the line Cross the line Cross the line (Verse 1) It’s a fine line between life and death With blood spilled right and left Mixed in all the sweat and tears All held together the cries and fears Men and women lashing out Back and forth bout to bout One person is wounded so they wound another Victim to victim or lover to lover So many people living in pain They bring others down so they feel a gain Every little bit evil cuts down in fractions No more can I allow any distraction My chance to speak out I wont be silent All the wrong has awoken this sleeping giant I’ll battle for the good with an unbridled passion With justice in my hands I’m gonna take action (Hook) X2 A thin line painted in blood Dark skies have blurred the eyes No distinction between hate and love Call the sign cross the line (Bridge) Cross the line Cross the line Cross the line Cross the line (Verse 2) It’s sad to see so many acts of violence This world of fear set to silence Speaking up still remains quiet It’s normal they say so they buy it People come home to slap around their kids Blame them for something they never did Kids forced to grow up in a world of mistrust Broken down before they have a chance to grow up There is even unborn life quick to be cut The door to our future being slammed shut I just want a chance for these seeds to flower So with that I will offer over my power The wickedness of this world I’m gonna wrestle Fight for the most high as a righteous vessel In the name of justice to wage war on evil For all the defenseless to protect my people (Hook) A thin line painted in blood Dark skies have blurred the eyes No distinction between hate and love Call the sign cross the line (Bridge) Cross the line Cross the line Cross the line Cross the line

“MixBreak Pt. 1” The sky cracks open from shots I bust Give me somebody to trust we both turn to dust But trust I reverse like first eat the crust She was the crown while I was found on the cusp So let’s toast cups as we gather to feast For Him who’s least but a might beast Searching lurking hungry to eat Dot end page now turn the sheet Count up down side to side However you total it there’s only one reply to ride So step aside there’s no chance to hide They’ll ensure you died when you tried to defy Masculine ruth or feminine groups Humanity’s let loose on absolute truth Absolute vodka that party girl’s gotcha Bought’cha brought’cha to this launch of a monsta Renegade hitting these shots with a fade Tossing grenades then I’ll pass out first aid Deuces two fingers up out this peace Free with a five-finger discount at least Catch me if you can Tom Hanks Snitches get stitches toothbrush shanks Twenty-five to life with one shot at parole This sniper’s locked on target one chance to go Now I don’t got the cash flow to make it rain But I’ll make it hale on ‘um coin star change Heads up luck penny Abe Lincoln Hey Blinkin Robin Hood Men In Tights trickin All shouting “Leave us alone Mel Brooks” Why don’t you go on home read some books Here’s one Rapping For Idiots Case Study I’ll show you how it really gets

I Am Sean 03:12
“I Am Sean” (Verse 1) Five eight one hundred thirty pounds Small frame with a big sound Of Irish and Italian decent Catholic Christian with sins to repent Sean Edward Menegatti at birth Named after my grandfathers from first William John Kathleen Anne Their third child became the plan But every part of this basic process Comes along with its share of crosses Given a cross I alone can clutch When we touch I remember it’s my crutch This curse I bare a burden on my back So many more colors than white and black I have everything not aware of my needs Possessions fill nothing cause my heart still bleeds Spending so many hours off in my dreams But the truth is different never as that seems In a shimmer of light I see a glimmer of night But as much as I try I just can’t escape The screams of my heart never reach my lips So I move into action but seldom see benefits Seeking on my knees as my soul erupts So I pray to God keep me up (Verse 2) The vale of nighttime descends to cover the sky The realness of life is something I cannot deny My words said are good but what lies in the unspoken I hold them back cause I fear the results if I were open Many times in my past there was a future I had to desert And every time I look back the memories still hurt But I tore apart my past to start brand new With nothing built I don’t know what to do There is a future so I should start to plan But what happens when it comes down to I did what I can As I stand there are things that still remain undone Should I get up and run chasing down the sun I don’t know I don’t know what it is I sit around and imagine a world of bliss I look in the eyes of fate yet see no reflection With no ideas I’m left alone in my detection (Bridge) I’m just a man I’m just Sean Just spirit and flesh What do I have left (Verse 3) X2 It’s not it’s not it’s something else It’s got to be the fear found in myself Scared to be hurt scared to be hugged Scared to be pushed away scared to be loved Bridge) I’m just a man I’m just Sean Just spirit and flesh What do I have left

Mystic Ocean 03:20
“Mystic Ocean” (Verse 1) The waves come crashing onto the shore Beating the earth but what is it for It’s not like this planet has done anything evil Unlike the sins committed by all of her people Or at least this man’s echoing mistakes I should be gone going at this rate And that’s all that I can think about Watching the tide come in and out The ocean is such a temperamental fiend High and low ebb and flow ever-changing being A rhythm that makes it understandable But unpredictable to be treacherous and unmanable So similar to the nature of me The nature of man everything that I see Freedom and slavery joy and tragedy Often insignificant is all I can be (Hook) X2 One drop of water in the entire ocean One grain of sand across the shore One shinning star up in the sky One single person in all mankind (Bridge) One One One One (Verse 2) He’s got the whole world in his hands But not like those kid’s song man Those childhood days are far long gone What’s going on right now that’s what I’m on Strife and suffering burning fire hot Drop after drop of love it wont stop But it’s not enough all that we got Cause sometimes it feels like we didn’t do squat Pain burning in to anger and hate Spreading to destroy, not to create Two steps forward and one step back Sometimes even the opposite of that Before things get better we’re making it worse In need we have no choice but to converse To plead to cry God save us Drop into the ocean of mercy with trust (Hook) X2 One drop of water in the entire ocean One grain of sand across the shore One shinning star up in the sky One single person in all mankind (Bridge) One One One One

The Tree 04:39
“The Tree” (Verse 1) I knew a certain tree as I was growing up Always easy to find when I was showing up The tree stood tall during every single season And I love that tree for way to many reasons I would climb on the tree swing on it’s branches It gave shade to keep cool and apples for lunches Every single day the tree had something to offer So I said give me give me as time passed longer Soon I said tree give me all your wood I’m gonna take it and use it good So continues my life living away from the tree Now a stump I lived off its blessings to me And it took way to long to see its sacrifice I was so blessed because the tree gave its life Now I sit at the stump to reflect and rest To become a blessing and give what I’ve been blest (Hook) Come to the tree relax and sit Come to the water breath and sip Garner grow gain the glow At the tree of life Come to the tree turn and give Come to the sacrifice love and live Renew refresh receive the bless At the tree of life (Bridge 1) Come to the tree Come to the tree Come to the tree Come and be free Come to the tree Come to the tree Come to the tree Come and be free (Verse 2) Come to the tree come look and see I’m not perfect but that’s where you’ll find me Old and young everybody come Daughters and sons every single one The tree is here for me and it’s here for you To help us pull on through Why not come by and receive Don’t worry even if you don’t believe At the tree of life all are embraced The tree gives offering as a foretaste I was blest so now I pay it forward To speak a message that’s often unheard Poorly spoken but mostly forgotten So I’ll tell you now the gift that I’ve gotten God loves me and God loves you All he wants is to be with you God loves you yes God loves you All he wants is to be with you God loves you God loves you All he wants is you (Hook) Come to the tree relax and sit Come to the water breath and sip Garner grow gain the glow At the tree of life Come to the tree turn and give Come to the sacrifice love and live Renew refresh receive the bless At the tree of life (Bridge 2) Come to the tree Come to the tree Come to the tree Come and be free Come to the tree Come to the tree Come to the tree Come and be free Come to the tree Come to the tree Come to the tree Come and be free Come to the tree Come to the tree Come to Jesus Come he frees us
