Hey folks, it's been a while. School and work and life and most importantly the birth of my first child have kept me from you. Corona came and we can't wait for it to go away. I hope this finds you all well. A fourth album is in progress however it may be a little longer than expected considering the current state of this global pandemic. Speaking of which, I really would like to share with you this recent piece I wrote... Hope you enjoy.

Corona Virus

Downcast
Faces down
Mask
Social distancing
Task
Keep everyone
Six feet away

"They" say
We're in this together
But the same "they"
Made the storms we weather
And they have never
Been with us before

So why would now
Be any different
Why would we now
Trust the government
Stores are closed
No money's being made
Best believe
Somebody's getting paid

What is this war they wage
On a people wearing masks?
Time to look up
With more than our eyes
Time to stay woke
Time to realize
The answer may fall
Like a bomb
From the skies
Using the phrases
As we "drop like flies"

Wise words spoken
Never listened to
As prophets lost placement
'Though they spoke the truth
"Conspiracy Theories"
Never spoke to you
Now sound like Revolution
What is this war They're waging?

People wearing masks
Six feet away and waiting
Got an entire globe
Not just one single nation
Restless for breath
We grow impatient
While we stay inside
Straight pacing

Time to face the hour at hand
A thief in the night
Babylon's command
WE married our time
To the money we made
One percent hold the interest
On this war we wage

Common sense
Tells our spirits to rise
But we remain still
Our bodies are tired
Wired to behave
Or they'll lock us in jail
A people fall silent
Six feet apart
Six feet deep
Babies fuss and
Mothers weep
What does this all entail?

Riots grow restless
But they need to creep
Because they've
Cleared us from the streets
Time to listen
Time to rise
Time to realize
Words from the prophets
Never sounded so wise
Hit our eardrums
Like those bombs from the skies

What is this war they wage?

Things shift and fall away
Must chaos come
Before our brand new day?
Revelation rises
Will our souls be saved?
Who will lead the way?

Peace be still
As the waters rise
As a restless people
Face demise
Words of the prophets 
Never sounded so wise
Now is the hour
Now is the time

To face this war they waged

STAY WOKE!
