Digital Reign 04:23 video

Digital Reign Tangled up in wires makes your eyeballs strain Five Mississippi sliding down the drain Techno Bob paste a crack in time Lack of CPU in a nursery rhyme Robot shoes and a midnight stare Vapo breath dirty cell phone hair Living out the dream in your selfie life Adding up the numbers counting every like He’s got plastic sneakers and a rubber tie Polyurethane smile an electric eye Got varnished pants and a polished style Voice recognition Perry Masonite tile We’re living in the time of digital reign The cloud consumes our past and soon our brains Will AI take our souls and change our names Written By Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved

Breathe No Fire 03:34 video

Breathe No Fire Breathe no fire feel no pain Ask no questions can't explain This Burning fever is pure desire Lust for love like flaming fire I Give you my heart and you took my soul away, to spite the pain Her Body slivers makes me shake Such Precious feelings I’m gonna break a touch of reason Eludes my grasp Avoid those feelings They won't last I Give you my heart and you took my soul away, forget the pain Breathe no fire feel no love I wonder what you're made of Hard as diamonds cold like steel I wonder if your teeth are real I Give you my heart and you took my soul away, forget the pain Written by Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved

PRAYING Anger in the Sky Atomic Wind Swell like a Storm Cloud At the Rainbows End Glow like A mushroom Conceived In dark Money Light a fire The final Spark I'm praying in my heart I'm shaking in my soul cause I can see it coming around It’s got me praying, praying, Now Johnny was a good boy They thought that, that was true Had respect for humanity Just like me and you—right But then one night Johnny must have lost his mind He took a step off the edge of the world It must have been his time I'm praying with my heart I'm shaking in my soul cause I can see it coming around It’s got me praying, praying, It’s got me praying, praying, cause I can see it coming around Fire in the Sea The Planet shakes With lightning and Thunder The Spirits Break Hate like a Bad seed Spawned in black Man the majestic May not be back I'm praying with my heart I'm shaking in my soul cause I can see it coming around It’s got me praying, praying, It’s got me praying, praying, cause I can see it coming around Written By Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved

The Fire In Me Had a dream last night someone tapped me on the shoulder So I turned around to see I heard this sound As the room lit up like fire As this feeling was burning in me There’s a fire, in me and I Just wanna get myself home So I ran outside And I saw this great big shadow And it seemed to be following me So I ran till I fell And it tapped me on the shoulder I just knew that I had to break free This fire, in me, Its burning cause I wanna go home ! Fire indeed So burning hot it chills me to the bone I just wanna go home…. So I jumped back up And I headed for the river Let it wash and cool me down I jumped head first And then things just got more crazy Cause that shadow was water bound When I woke from the dream There sat my friend the shadow With no sound he spoke out loud He said he was me And he would help me with the fire Then we stepped onto a cloud There’s this fire, in me, Its burning cause I wanna go home ! There’s this fire indeed So burning hot it chills me to the bone I just wanna go home…. Written By Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved

Fiddle Stix Speak your mind find the cure Come on back and get some more Ask no questions tell no lies Mind your own business that'd be wise Get it on up, get it on down Get on out the way Daddy go hi,mama go low Gotta look out for the pain Take it all in, let it all out Show your poker face Time to let the dog out And join the human race Grandpa say’s Fiddlesticks…. I call it bullshit…… Have I ever mentioned how this drives me insane How Enable stupidity and pass on the blame Cower in the darkness Shy away from our sins Cover up the mess we made and do it all again Better play nice, don’t think twice Don’t dare lend a hand Step on up, drink that cup The line is in the sand Go ahead and roll that dice Stepping in harms way Take a chance on bad advice There’s only hell to pay Well there's this man down the street don’t care he’ll jump across your fence He’ll turn against his brother he aint go no common sense Sees the world with blinders on, avoids the gospel truth He’ll rise above the law he stands tall with his hands around that noose I call bullshit, ah fiddle sticks; I call bullshit Often times I get so mad my eyes turn red Feeling like an angry dog who hasn’t been fed The things out their mouths just make me wanna slap The day lights the lack of sense their endless stream crap This man down the street don’t care he’ll jump across your fence He’ll turn against his brother he aint go no common sense Sees the world with blinders on, avoids the gospel truth He’ll rise above the law he stands tall with his hands around that noose I call bullshit, ah fiddle sticks; I call bullshit Written By Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved

All Rise 04:26 video

ALL RISE Whether change of heart or stuck in the middle That cat’s gonna bag with a ho hum diddle Gonna scrim scram tumble like a football fumble Till his walls start crumbling down Sag like a bag in a junkyard heep Gonna run till he falls not from lack of sleep Shift like gears on a broken chain Like nobody knows his name All rise We all Fall Down Bones on a throne with a whiplash stare Thinking who knows who in this truth or dare He could wash it down with a can of pride Run for the hills this Frankenstein’s bride In a shoehorn room on a black stain night Come a begging like a fool like he's got the right That cat’s got the bag and a mouth full of lies And another thing coming when he realize All rise We all fall down Just fight the feeling don’t lie down on the ground There’s got to be some meaning somehow Connect the dots and see where it leads you Stay Between the lines and all the scheming Your head knows the way You know you can’t stay All rise We all fall down Written By Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved

Like a fish in a glass Dark hard rain on twisted steel Long cold nights on cobbled stone Can’t remember my last meal But for the dog, the thief, the broken constant drone, it’s home Where fate won’t find me Where truth won’t blind me Where beggars ride beside me I don’t need a cage to remind me who I am Old tent a shack, under the stars Nomadic life is my backyard Don’t take my food don’t steal my cart But for the dog, the thief, the broken constant drone, it’s home Where fate won’t find me Where truth won’t blind me Where beggars ride beside me I don’t need a cage to define just who I am Its what’s ahead it’s the waiting for The old mans crutch that old metaphor I choose this life of my own accord But for the dog, the peeps, the constant highway drone, it’s home Where fate won’t find me Where truth won’t blind me Where beggars ride beside me I don’t need a cage to remind me who I am Written By Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved

Where The Sun Don't Shine 03:32
lyrics

Where the Sun don’t Shine Fingers to the bone To earn what’s mine Might as well put it where the sun don’t shine Can’t catch a break can’t have your say They say you’re not too old to walk away Life fall down around your feet While crime and hatred Pave the streets Hand out lies and then betray They wash their dirty hands and walk away You think you rather live in their darkness ? You know they say to move towards the light You know you gotta follow your instincts To choose your own day and the fight “Breath in” and count ten blessings “Breath in” and hold on tight “Breath in” good sense will flow in Call their bluff and watch their guff decay Fingers to the bone To earn what’s mine Might as well put it where the sun don’t shine Twist the rules to make you obey They wash their dirty hands and walk away Written By Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved

Women And Cars 03:35

Women and Cars My baby needs a break job Getting hard to slow her down Front ends making noises And the rear end shakes the ground Try to keep her clean and change her oil Don’t let no strangers drive Tune her up every chance I get Trying to keep her satisfied But one thing after another goes wrong She’s always fucking up Give that woman just one more chance Then I’ll get me a dog and a truck Let me tell ya bout Women Women and cars Its either one or the other Trying to break my heart We got fuel-injected love Might need to readjust her valves Things smoking like a hellfire And she’s runnin way to proud Got no filters, turn signals don’t work Her wheels don’t touch the ground Get her battery charged and she still wont start She’s always fucking around Let me tell ya bout Women Women and cars It’s either one or the other Trying to break me apart Lead But one thing after another goes wrong She’s always fucking up Give that woman just one more chance This time I’ve had enough Written By Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved

KING MIDAS IN REVERSE You can take water and turn it into dirt! And with Disaster you do flirt Do you bring it on yourself? You give a hand and it knocks you off your feet And like a cycle you repeat You go and do it all again! If it’s not broke you’ll fix it till it is And finding truth is just a quiz And now you’re feeling so perverse Hangs on you Like a curse Your kingdom has come King Midas in Reverse!………….. Everything you touch seems to turn into shit They get the money you get zip And you don’t even get desert ! Broken Heart and you just can’t keep her round And you wonder where she’s been down Can’t fend off the hurt She’ll bust your wallet and take part of your mind And You’re a sucker every time I think its just the way you work Hangs on you Like a curse Your kingdom has come King Midas in Reverse!…………..

It’s Okay, It’s Alright I’ve been watching the news paying my civic dues seeing the world events unfold We’ve seen the climate change, we’ve seen the fires rage, and we’ve seen kids with guns kill at their schools Some hint of civil war, the brink of world war three, the conspirators glued to their pews There come the liars club, rife with crooks and thugs, hide their crimes under rugs from view Its ok, its alright, their going to lead you buy the hand to their paradise It’s ok, it’s alright, I don’t know how the hell they can sleep at night Man came around he said I’d to change my vote and he handed me a paper to sign He said he had the right and said he’ll stand where he stood But the trouble was he's standing on mine I said now lookie here son, tell me where you come from, you’re not calling me dumb But just blind So take your car and your note, jump in the river don’t float, And put your paper where the sun don’t shine It’s ok, it’s a game, when your truth and your lies become one in the same It’s ok, it’s alright, I don’t understand how you can sleep at night It seems like paying your dues when you’re broke and cant do when your choices are few you choose wrong With all the vice and advice about the length of your arm, could really do you Harm and then you’re gone Don’t need no pack of smokes, don’t need hooked on dope, just wanna do my share and go home Just need the work and some time, some good luck would be fine, I’ll keep myself in line Its no joke It’s ok, It’s alright, I walked myself in crawl out the other side Its ok, It’s alright I don’t now how the hell they can sleep at night It’s ok, it’s a game, when your truth and your lies become one in the same It’s ok, it’s alright, I don’t understand how they can sleep at night.

For crying out loud For crying out loud Would you put that thing down You’re losing your mind Your clock has come unwound For crying out loud Get off of that fucking thing Your Brain’s turn into mush You can’t remember a damn thing Take my hand and come back up I’m reaching out cause enough is enough The time has come we gotta move real fast Get the hell up cause this just might be your last chance For crying out loud Get off of those damned drugs Your life’s almost done Death is calling your bluff For crying out loud Step out of that damn trap Not giving you up We’re taking you back Take my hand and come back up We’re reaching out cause enough is enough? The time has come we gotta move real fast Get the hell up cause this just might be your last chance For crying out loud They’re dependent on you Your wife and your kids And your mom and dad too For crying out loud You can’t let them drown You are better than this You’ve got to stick around We know that you can do better than this Don’t die please stick around Written By Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved

Make A Differance 04:40
lyrics

Make a difference Left right black and white You think you life is airtight? You better re-evaluate it all North south East and West Put your values to the test The time to procrastinate is gone But, will even make a difference When the meaning takes a hold Are you gonna be the one who’s in control? And if I had my way… I wouldn’t wait another day I never do believe just what I’m told No no no no no no……….I never do believe just what I’m told Terrorize de-sensitize Shoot em right between the eyes Things like that don’t happen around here! Breathe deep count to ten Learn to take it on the chin Accept you aren’t exempt or in the clear! Banks close, white-collar jamb Economic body slam You turn your head and it all disappears Political circle Jerk Rub their faces in the dirt That regulation grin from Sneer to ear Written By Lynn R Slimmer Copyright 2023 Trackdog Music All Rights Reserved
