Please forgive me when I slept in your parlor Please forgive me when I ate from you tree Please forgive me when I woke up in your garden I just wanted to breath, I was afraid Please forgive me, please forgive me

I Really Feel Really Low I really feel really low I'm really feeling really low today somethings coming from my past to remind me of the things that I feel I should do I really feel really low I'm really feeling really low today somethings coming from my past to remind me of my faults to remind me of the things I promised and the things I prayed for and the things I wished upon come true Spoken: He walks like Forest Gump Upset, full of misplaced energy, not caring where he goes. His legs strong, resilient caring his heavy heart one step at a time Sound of the city - whistles - siren - people talking loudly on cell phones - busses semis are low in his sight As he looks up to the sky, his head in ethereal clouds, tears fly off his fave, with every step his mind races through words spoken, analyzing details, changing from Sad to relieved, He could walk to the ends of the world, comforted by the air fresh breathing - in. Walking aggressively come to a stand still... poised ... an he stand still Hanging a zone. He come down for the attic of his memoirs to find beauty before him, luscious green, yellow, red, crimson. Fragrance sweet, sounds buzzing.. in a garden In the garden of forgiveness.

He stood at the entrance to the garden: Something crystallized his thoughts to analyze his past and present situation He stood at the entrance to the garden: Was it forgiveness that he craved to start his life back on the right track of existence He stood at the entrance to the garden: He wasn’t sure if he should enter, he was frozen in my thoughts reminiscing He stood at the entrance to the garden: Whispering forget me nots, patience danced with bees and butterflies flew round with happiness and joy in view of his present situation In the garden of forgiveness, everyone should know, things begin to grow In the garden of forgiveness, everything is green, birds begin to sing Garden ooh Garden ooh, Garden ooh Grow, grow, grow, grow, grow

Secret Sadness - Flickering Light See the light is dancing deep inside us glowing flickers in the darkness silent darkness yearning finds its way to places deep inside of me where I hid my secret sadness. oh oh oh Thing of something blissful mindful to be grateful find the light in darkness silently connecting to the place you go when you are lonely deep inside your secret sadness. oh oh oh For sadness in the quiet darkness is not a place where people cry for in the silent darkness burns a flame to light the way *See the light inside you flickers in your darkness glowing light inside you deep inside its growing growing oh so brightly so you see even in your secret sadness. oh oh oh Bright sun deep inside me precious glow of nature lights the way to glory blissful life adorns me leads the way to places I'd not been before melts away my secret sadness So don't be afraid of the thoughts provoking from the darkness for without the darkness there would be no light For if it wasn't for my sadness searching for the light would be in vain

"SHE WORKS HARD" Divine Mother of all life Take me to that place Deep within your womb Where I can know nothing And be reborn anew She works hard for her children every day for her family Anther life passes by her so she panics to aspire She looks back on her life seeing the children all grown Now she has time to discover what she has become She works hard for her children every day for her family All those years raising children were so precious full of laughter Picture framed handmade things empty house empty home Now ones there, Now she has time to discover what she has become Spoken: Mother Mary, Quan Yin, Magdalene take her by the hand to the temple of Sophia her feminine, reminding her of the radiant woman she is within. Illuminating the beauty of her womb, cast the seedlings of her morning joy to awaken. Her tears flow down her soft skin stimulating her womanly glow. Slips from her dream back to the room where she slowly awakens. Looking in the mirror seeing her glowing essence, a lovely woman discovers herself once again. Filled with a joyous heart she dancing in the kitchen, dancing through the house, she feels born anew.

BUTTS OF CIGARETTES Brewing coffee, roaches crawling on the toothpaste, dirty sock stink up the bathroom, knotted hair without shampoo Cell phones buzzing, no hot water in the shower, molded food left in the ice box, piles of dishes in the sink. Mornings over, smoking butts of cigarettes, empty pockets, ceiling crumbling in the hallway. Rats crawling in the walls. Have you seen Sally? Her Dad came by today looking for her, he said her mother so worries she made herself sick.

Turns Gold To Green Sun comes up early, birds start to sing, showering raindrops making things grow afternoon showers turns gold to green, soul rich with new growth Shadowed silhouettes when night comes, indigo while Moonlite stars fall. Afternoon sunburns, fresh water springs, gardens grow taller, harvesting brings Laughter at picnics, joyously sings, people and nature.

THIS IS THE WORLD WE LIVE IN Together, together ah

"WANNA BE LOVED LIKE YOU DO" He's tall, he’s short I’m fat, they're thin I'm black, they’re brown We smile, he frowns, her hair is red his eyes are green, her arms are long, my legs are short, his hair is blonde grey. We cry, we laugh, we talk, they scream. They want to be loved like you do we want to be loved like they do. I'm torn, we’re scared, his old, they’re young I wanna be loved like they do. They want to be loved like you do. We want to be loved like we do.

Ode To IO 02:36
ODE TO IO Everyones telling me Im wrong no one can see what’s going on inside me took a lifetime for them to look to find me, can you see me? So confused inside my heart what they say conflicts with truth inside me No one can say what I can be or not be. Earth ideals were closing in. Earth ideas confused their minds about things Took a life time for them to look to find me
14.
"World To Be Much Wiser" He thought that he could be a lone just him a lone with no one home that's what he knew that's how it was after she left him she left him how can he make it on his own He’s all alone He sits by the house every day by himself no one know that he prays for the world to be much wiser
15.
NOTHING LEFT BUT A BLUE SKY Its a glow that I feel when you walk by me Its your smile gently showering rain then the sun appears, winters snow is gone, when the clouds moved in, dusty desert dust, mixed with incense musk, was your gentle touch. Then the wind blew down the little house, where people pray. Then, everyone was the same, nothing left just a blue sky then everyone was the same nothing left just a blue sky
16.
I Just Want You To Know I just wanted to call tell you I love you want you to know that you can rest easy knowing what I know you'll always please me Ah don't you know that I love you love you
17.
I HAVE JOY IN MY LIFE I have joy in my life Every morning and throughout the day I have joy in my life I won’t let nothing come in the way of my sweet precious joy Everyday when I wake I have joy in my life I refuse to react to the anger my heavenly joy will grow stronger like waves of the ocean will lift us
18.
Something That I Feel Is Calling Me when I wake up in the morning so early in the morning when the sun rises in the morning I just know that when I wake up Im gonna fly to another place cuz I have wings with a heart filled with generous offerings that brings flight to my body like a bird soaring perched high above the city Something that I feel is calling me
19.
IF YOU WANT TO SEE WHAT LOVE IS It’s May in my garden and I’m so grateful For without my garden I would have nothing to eat I would starve and dwindle down to nothing Without May in my garden If you want to see what love is If you want to know all you have to see how they glow when they say hello Love is all around them, birds begin to sing night or day it’s all the same cuz when you have love Life is so beautiful that's what they say about them Spoken: I love holding your hand in the garden We have so much fun together In the days that come, In the days that go every minute every hour, I'm so happy with you yes we’re happy together, Yes we’re happy together I’m so grateful to have you in my life
20.
I AM SO HAPPY Everything I see becomes me every word I hear will mold me every breath I take informs me grateful is my heart to be here. I am so happy, I am so happy, I am so happy, I am so happy Just imagine, a warm summer day laughing with friends, warm like the sun I am that warm summer fun. Just imagine, a night on the town with friends all around, till moonlight ends I am that soft moon lite glow. I am so happy, I am so happy, I am so happy, I am so happy Just imagine, children at play, joyously rings rings through the air I am that joy that you hear. Just imagine, A walk in the park, on a beautiful day, flowers in bloom I am that beautiful day. Everything I see becomes me every word I hear will mold me every breath I take informs me grateful is my heart to be here. I am so happy, I am so happy, I am so happy, I am so happy

about

DIGGIN THE DIRT
Is a Mojo Album - to rewrite the story from pain to glory

when our thoughts create action, can those stories of hurt and tragedy transform themselves by first being honest to what had happened. Realizing after the fact that so many people are effected by the poor behavior. The only way to feel better is to admit the wrong doings, ask for forgiveness and hope that those you victimized can forgive.

These songs are some of the stories.

Being left alone, asking for forgiveness
She works hard for the family
a family falling a part, butts of cigarettes when children go astray
What is your secret sadness and what that means
Finding the light that connected to the divine, having joy
He just wants you to know
Finding other meaningful ways to show love that goes beyond words
She won’t be waiting round
something that she feels is calling
rediscovering how we are influenced by our surroundings - I am so happy
