-
The road has been tough for me I know
And it make take some years to show
The fruit of my labor
-
Now I know that they may never know
And it make take some years to show
The regret in my broken heart
-
Cause every song is a lonely thought
-
The road has been tough for me I know
And it may take some years after I sow
At the time to reap, It'll truly show
-
Now I know that they may never know
And it may never ever grow
Drowning from the drenching storm
-
Cause every song is a lonely thought
Out in the public for all to know
But no one hears my call
No one hears this song
The silent cry I fight all alone
-
Here comes the rain
Here comes the reign
When the rain comes
-
Will I lay around?
Will I stay around?
Will I make it out
Will my tale expound?
Will I make them proud?
-
Here comes the rain
Seeds washed away
My crop and too much rain
-
Will I lay around?
Will I make it out?
Will I make them proud?
Will I cast a doubt?
Will I make them proud?
-
With each sound of the bird call
With each wake and no phone call
With each silence I will stall
With each moment I will crawl
-
With each day, the world calls
With each time, the truth is known
With each breath, the moments flown
With each day, the paths known
-
Anticipate the divine storm

-
The midday madness
has been made
It has been tamed
Yet, since I was born,
I’ve known nothing but sad
-
My indigo ways,
out of place, & unexplained
My Hidden life is vacant,
yet filled with sadness
-
Why do I feel so sad?
In this world gone mad?
With nowhere to land
-
The news make me sad
This world makes me sad
Holidays make me sad
-
Why do I feel so sad?
Has this world gone mad?
With nowhere to land
-
This music makes me sad
People make me sad
Everything makes me sad
-
Why do I feel so sad?
Has this world gone mad?
With nowhere to land
-
Grateful but I (still) feel sad
Faithful but I (still) feel sad
Atop (of a mountain), but I still sad.

-
The wood creaks
The dust has settled
The midday has arrived
-
The wrinkles are there
Forsaken repairs
Unattended stairs
-
The spine of pain
The mellow aches
Quiet echo resonates
A day to designate
With no motivation
-
Aesthetics in blues
Sublime sadness come true
-
For the simpleman
Whose got no chance
That’s not my problem!
-
Quiet desperation
Overdue revelation
Midday resignation
-
Perhaps renovation
Perhaps innovation
Perhaps someone day I’ll settle
Perhaps someday I’ll mettle

-
Out on the road toward a seamless world
Mountains that cover the great unknown
Heading for fame or heading for a dreamworld
-
Uncovering what fears, I may have stored
Dealing with all the consequences, life has evolved
-
And I say,
(While) strolling along
“Life goes on…"
-
Out on the road, discover my home
Follow my bliss, will it last, over the long haul?
In the end, nobody even knows
-
Releasing all the energies, which I have stored
Dealing with the bitter sweet of endless roads
-
And I sing,
(While) purging along
"Life goes on..”
-
I’m already to roll
When change is sudden
doubt for me
life won’t let me
dare to dream
-
I’m already to roll
Alone it seems
wise and pleased,
changed to see
dared to dream
-
I’m much concerned about the clutter,
easing on to take the flutter,
I'm living life in total control
-
And I say,
“Life goes on…"
And I say,
“Who gives a fudge?"

Someday,
I’ll go running
I'll go sliding
I’ll go riding
I got pictures
crusty sutures
plenty to be revealed
-
I’m packing my bags
I’m walking out of line
I’m bracing my prance
I’m chasing my dance
Embracing my chance on you too.
-
Someday,
I’ll go jumping
I'll go drumming
I’ll go punning
I got pictures
crusty sutures
and plenty to be revealed
-
So I’m packing my bags,
I’m walking out of line
I’m bracing my prance
I’m chasing my dance
Embracing my chance on you too
-
When all is said and done
When this world is dead and gone
And only God knows where I'll go
-
When all is said and done
And this story is read and logged
And only God knows where I'll go
-
I hope so
I know so
I chose so
I dreamt so
-
Time is jetting
The sun is setting
The sand is cooling
The red is reflecting
-
So I hope so
I know so
I chose so
I dreamt so
Time is betting
The sun is letting
The senses are fading
The heavens connecting
So I hope so.

Over again?
Give me a chance
To start again
Just one more chance!
-
If only, I'd had a chance
If only, I'd had romance
If only, I'd had a plan
If, I can’t wait to start again
-
Over again?
Give me a chance
To start again
Just one more chance!
-
I want live in a world
without fear and death
-
Live and let live
Let go and let God
Live life or let it die
-
"Live and let live,
live life and let God"
-
I want to give in a world
without sweat or tears
-
(I’m) letting life live me
Instead of living my life
Let go and let God
-
“Letting life live me
versus living life"
-
No ashes after this
But let it burn so sweet
We pray and we plead
I pray before I go sleep
-
Over again?
Give me a chance
To start again
Just one more chance!
-
If only, I'd had a chance
If only, I'd had romance
If only, I'd had a plan
If, I can’t wait to start again
-
Over again?
Give me a chance
To start again
Just one more chance!
-
Give me, give me,
One more chance,
Its the only thing i ask
-
If you value what it's worth
If your life (is) gone, take that turn
Give me grace, give me hope
Happiness, freedom, success, and more

CALL OF THE WILD
(J.Palacio)
Created & Recorded between October 2017-April 2018.
-
Long years
grey hairs over my eyes
These old bones
cooped up for a life
-
Born to run
but raised to be tame
Sacrificed an entire life
for staying sane
-
Curiosity (hits)
If I could run free
It's in my nature
to never (ever) return
-
Suddenly
loyalty out the door!
Call me wild
while I prepare for this run!
-
I’m Timber,
Run so free and I'm gone!
Timber!
Run so free and I'm gone!
Timber!
Run so free and I'm gone!
Timber!
Run so free, Am I wrong?

-
When the night has come
with no labor and sun
All this work and no gain
It’s good to know life is vain
-
It's so unreal
The way it makes me feel
It's so unreal
The way it helps me heal
-
When it's useless to stay
In an empty shell
Took a chance on this trek
Found that you're waiting there
-
It's so surreal
The way you make me feel
It's in my dreams
The way your smile helps me heal
-
When the high only knows
of a vision of long ago
Sound or mute
Sleep or wake
I made peace in your grace
-
It's so unreal
the way it makes me feel
It's so unreal
the way it helps me heal
-
It's so surreal
the way you make me feel
it's so unreal
the way your love helps me heal
