Don’t know you do I?
Been a dumb blind fool.
Don’t know you do I?
Barely know yourself too.
Don’t know you do I?
Play the innocent fool
Don’t know you do I?
Nothing innocent about you.
Don’t know you do I?
Go and do what you gonna do
When I say I don’t know you, do I?
Believe what you want to.
Don’t know you, do I?
Be careful in what you do
For some might see
What others choose not to.

You live and you die
My friend
You live and you die
My friend.
So fuck what they view
Live your life for you
For just like you’ll do
They will die too.
For everything dies in the end.
Those without nerve
Often mock to be heard
So fuck negative words
From the mindless herd.
Live your life through
As best you can do
Trying to stay true to you
For all that we do.
Is all that we are in the end.
So let people talk
If talking’s their thing
Walk your own walk
If you can add a spring.
Let words hold little weight.
In decisions you make
Allow death be your mate
Until it comes to take.
For it takes everything in the end.
Knowing what death does
Should make life a buzz
So do what you love
Live life as you should.
Let them give you hell
Till death rings its bell
Knowing you lived your life well
While they made theirs a cell.
That will all become clear in the end.
Live life with balls
Listen to your own voice
For death comes to all
Only living’s a choice.
For everything dies
But not everything lives
And a living hell
Is the only hell that there is.
And even that dies in the end.
So live your life well
For only one have you got
And until death rings its bell
Why the hell not?
Fools are so many
And the penny drops for so few
So if you must listen to any
Why not listen to you?
You’ll be better to go in the end.
Live your life well
Dance brave through the fire
Laughing like hell
In the life you desire.

I shall change the fabric
The very sinew of my nature
I will break my habits
Become more selective in my favours.
If I give and don’t get back
As I do, and have often done
Those able but unwilling
Who had my favour, will now have none.
I will cut the ties
No matter how tight they seem to be
And I will redirect my eyes
On advancing me.
Chose a way of living
Giving by my nature
Now deciding to be more unforgiving
To those of means, yet only mean to be a taker.
I’ve given more time and energy
Than even those closest to me know.
Now I’ve only time and energy
For those who help, or wish to grow.

Girl you cool
But you mean as hell
Especially to one
Who always meaning well.
Can’t laugh with him
Or at least at him more
Then the man can’t win
Suppose that’s that for sure.
Last night he laughed
Himself to sleep
That was some funny fucking shit
For a man in deep.
Girl you cruel
You mean as hell
Especially to one
Who always mean you well.
Not even a smile
In silence speak
That was some funny fucking shit
For a man that deep.
Can’t laugh at that
Suppose that’s that for sure
For surely laughter is
What friends are for.

Come on now brother
Won’t you dance your soul free
Dance your soul clean
Dance along with me.
Come on now sister
Won’t you dance along with me
Dance your soul clean
Dance your soul free.
Come on now brother
I know it has been hard
Gave your heart to family
Family hit you hard.
Come on now sister
I know this world is mean
And you got some scars
By others can’t be seen.
Come on now brother
Won’t you dance along with me
Dance your soul clean
Dance your soul free.
Come on now sister
Won’t you dance along with me
Dance your soul clean
Dance your soul free.
Come on now brother
Grab that woman next to you
Dance along together
See what two can do.
Come on now woman
Grab that man next to you
Or grab yourself a woman
If that’s their preference too.
Come on now people
Come and dance along with me
Dance our souls clean
Dance our souls free.
This world can be beautiful
And it can be mean
But we got each other
That’s something now you see.
We make the world better
When we treat each other well
There are those who don’t
And they create their own hell.
Come on now woman
Won’t you dance alone with me
Dance our souls clean
Dance our souls free.
This world is so beautiful
Sometimes it’s hard to see
When we dance along together
To me it is clear as can be.
Come on now people
Won’t you dance along with me
Dance along together
Dance our souls free.
Come on now woman
Won’t you dance along with me
See what two can do
See what two can be.
Come on now people
Won’t you dance along with me
Dance our souls clean
Dance Your Soul Free.

Let the good times roll
Let the good vibes in
Feed love to your soul
Come alive within.
Focus on the bright
Good things to come
Let in the light
Allow in the sun.
Let good vibes take you
Let the good times roll
Let life’s dance shake you
Stop trying to control.
Give yourself to the moment
When the right one comes in
For the only time you’ll ever own it
Is when to one you give in.
Let the good times roll
Let the good vibes in
Feed love to your soul
Let life’s light in.

I feel a little high
I feel a little good
I’m not going to lie
For a time I didn’t think I would.
Just for a little while
I’m giving up on love
Except my love of life
For that I’m giving blood.
Something has sparked a fire
There’s a new lease of life in me
I’m filled with a wild desire
I kept trapped but now it’s free.
It is a little selfish
It has only eyes for me
I’ve been a little selfless
Though I knew I had to be.
Now it’s time for living
With a little bit of greed
Not completely given up on giving
Just giving myself a little room to breathe.
I feel real high
I feel real good
And just for a little while
I’m giving living all my love.
