Over The Edge
- R. Johnson
Used to be so simple
Everybody's pockets lined
These days you gotta be criminal
Just to get by
One time didn't mean that much
Two times couldn't get enough
Three times gotta feel that rush
And now...
And I'm over the edge
Exactly how you're thinking it'd end
I'm over the edge
Stressed & over thinking
Every time you said
Life's much better high
Used to be enough
Just to put in the time
Corporate titled scapegoat
Dying in the 9-5
One time didn't mean that much
Two times couldn't get enough
Three times gotta feel that rush
And now...
And I'm over the edge
Exactly how you're thinking it'd end
I'm over the edge
Stressed & over thinking
Every time you said
Life's much better high

Dear Child
- R. Johnson
Dear child
I've watched you walk from miles away
Growing up through pictures
Captured smiles on scrolling screens
Don't think for a second you ain't been on my mind
And I can see without me you're doing just fine
I may sit in the shadows to watch you chase your dreams
But you mean everything
I play it cool, and it's tough love when you're around me
Wasn't my plan, but you got love from me
Just say the word and I'll be beside you
Or I can walk 10 steps behind you
Whatever way it has to be
As I sit in the shadows it's just so hard to believe
How you mean everything
Solo
Dear child
You make me better everyday
Such a brave example
The way you charge the way you lead
Twisted up in the irony of the world's cruel design
My heart grows fonder as we're losing time
From where I sit in the shadows I wouldn't change a thing
Cause you mean everything

Flavor Of The Day

Flavor Of The Day
- R. Johnson
It's educating, it's only complicated cause you don't want it
Guilty of underestimating you ability to numb the rational
Justify the wave you're riding on
Have you always been this way?
You're stuck inside your own limitations
Hate always ends the same
Converse but can't debate
Your judgement without reason has offended me today
Your ignorance won't fade if I call a spade a spade
Stay stupid as you're chasing down another flavor of the day
Someone save me from this conversation abomination
It's fascinating how self esteem destroyed a generation
Justify the wave you're riding on
Have you always been this way?
You're stuck inside your own limitations
Hate always ends the same
Converse but can't debate
Your judgement without reason has offended me today
Your ignorance won't fade if I call a spade a spade
Stay stupid as you're chasing down another flavor of the day

I Have Imagined
- R. Johnson
Opinions
Don't belong here
This is quiet time
Reflection
Deflects my worst years
And keep me child like
From younger days to getting old
I have imagined things I was never told
Passing days 'n getting old
I have imagined things I was never told
Famous
For nothing yet
Surrounded by sound
Created
At my very best
My legacy when I'm not around
My younger days are getting old
I have imagined things I was never told
Passing days 'n getting old
I have imagined things I was never told
Younger dreams are getting old
I still imagine things I have never told

My Other Side

My Other Side
- R. Johnson
My other side has many other sides a flaw within myself changes day to day
And I can't will it away
My younger other side a former character I used to play
Seems we've drifted away
My other side a dirty altered mind reserved for closeness I want to crave
In shame it shall stay
My older other side fears the choices made when today
Seemed far so away
All of me needs all of you now
Once revealed to stay or walk out?
My other side gets my head real high a lonesome atmosphere left in my wake
My urge to isolate
My broken other side demands my head full time it agitates
I can't push it away
These bare feelings lie before you now
Once revealed to stay or walk out?
Does anyone ever feel the same?
Just want someone out there to relate
Behind the mask we integrate
Then solitude returns us our safe space
Once revealed to stay or walk out?

Bridges

Bridges
- R. Johnson
My sentiment sustained in toils of yesterday
A fallen wish, a friend to foe, for all I know about anything
The bridge is burning oh so bright
Shining on the place we stand in refracted light
Bridges burning from mind & sight
As every echo fades in reflection tonight
There's just not enough time in the world
There's just not enough time in the world
A sigh in search of words captured everything
Oh so sure of trust, I thought, for all I know about anything
The bridge is burning oh so bright
Shining on the place we stand in refracted light
Bridges burning from mind & sight
As every echo fades in reflection tonight
There's just not enough light in the world
There's just not enough light in the world
