I grew up in Boston, MA. I went to BU for psychology, but life took me in other directions from my education with some unexpected twists and turns. I am always thinking and just trying to put some of my ideas out there to entertain and make a positive difference.

Innocence

What would happen if you were a child? With two parents who never smiled. Never a kind word was said. And no knowledge of love was placed in your head.

How would she know how to act proper? If no one were to ever adopt her. Left without love...

Materialism

Money may own you
But fuck it Im free
Pick up the phone dude

Your losing your self

That the car you bought
Might as well be
A prison of metal
An idea of self esteem
But you have nothing

Stand Tall

Hate me or love me I don’t care
Ur opinions of me are not the reason I’m here
I’ve come to free you from traps that have been placed
They feed you lies straight to your face
We learn to deny and then to hate
But if you think hate is stronger...

Bald

A man stood upon my shoulder
He was heavy like a boulder
What was he doing way up there
Well certainly admiring why my scalp was bare

I had to wonder with a thought
If a toupee I should have bought
I did not expect no not today
My head to...

Thanks! it’s an excerpt from a song I wrote about my buddy(from his point of view) for my buddy, so that might be why it seem like there should be more. Because there is, but the rest was more personal to him.

it’s not really condemning money as much as a person’s connection of self to it, and letting that be their purpose.

I don’t think there is true evil. Just people taught so little value of themselves that they in turn don’t know how to value others. People who witness hate or pain at such a young age that the way they view the world is distorted by it and they are consumed by the darkness instead of being lead by the light. And their actions show it. Because we tend to output what has been input in us. And unfortunately not everyone’s world provides them enough information to navigate through the negative or wrong information to find their way back. So basically I look at people who would do evil as having a virus in their programming. What’s your opinion?

I definitely fell victim to being like that too at times. Of course it's meant more for a dark humor aspect than to be taken too seriously.
