She’s not sweet like her mother Cause she was built to survive to stay alive In the Seas of blood red waters, she’s far from Alone my how the truth has shown Chorus From the sea to the shore They climb above and aboard From the land to the skies Waving goodbye to regression Take the wheel like a lover Shift to the skies on the maiden flight Soaring over the blood red waters Fist clenched high pumping time Chorus From the sea to the shore They climb above and aboard From the land to the skies Waving goodbye to regression Chorus From the sea to the shore They climb above and aboard From the land to the skies Waving goodbye to regression

Sinking feeling, descending as we go Drawing nearer the center of the hole A reminder an outlier Of the trance that we are in Splashed with nonsense just a taste, just a taste to begin Chorus Draw them near as I push you away All your visions blurred and gray The pace quickens, racing for the depths The mass thickens erupting through the skin Drowsy Pupas a hollow newness Toward the blankness ahead We sound distorted and discordant Shouting in the din Chorus Draw them near as I push you away All our visions blurred and gray sound so close yet your so far away All the beauty quickly fades Bridge I’ll burn everything Oh I Burn it to the ground You swallowing everything Its too late Chorus Draw them near as I push you away All our visions blurred and gray sound so close yet your so far away All the beauty quickly fades

Fleet of foot betterUp your pace No matter what you’ll not win this race So High So far So fast They built a dream and shut us out Silent and blank all over town They live so high, so far so fast Chorus 1 This City Don’t Sing No More noooo Pretty Lights gone Dull and Lifeless VS 2 They’re drinking up, every single drop Voiding and remaking block by block They take you down so hard so fast Chorus 2 This City Don’t Sing No More noooo Pretty Lights gone Dull and Lifeless Bridge Chorus 3 This City Don’t Sing No More noooo Pretty Lights gone Dull and Lifeless

Contact High 04:29
Hold out your arm , Fill Their Veins so they will fight The doctors load their guns, Contact! Chorus High upon the ground the soldiers long for contact The Mission is the drug, always go time Draining and Dull Some might wish Further along, older not wiser Action is the drug, always High upon the ground the soldiers long for contact The Mission is the drug, always go time Draining and Dull Some might want, some might wish to die Always Go, Always go time

Perfect Dark 03:34
Turning tarot cards the black arts tantalize Ravens follow you at the ocean side Bringing you gifts from the afterlife Perfect dark favors you in your long good night Wolves roll over in the bone yard of your dreams All gleeful squeals and wagging tongues The medicine fills your cup and its sorrow nevermore Break wide your crypt door Chorus The Shadows Pass over The Tall graves Stand among the Fallen Leaves Falling Leaves Spin and listen for the sound Crows and Ravens on the wing all around you Sleep in the bones all piled up on the ground Sink into dream of the perfect Dark longing Chorus The Shadows Pass over The Tall graves Stand among the Fallen Leaves Falling Leaves Days ever shorter and the grey rushes in The cold shudder making you grin Nights that contain all your palest whims Chorus The Shadows Pass over The Tall graves Stand among the Fallen Leaves Falling Leaves Night passes over the tallest graves
6.
The Teeth that grind oh the sweat on your brow Sweltering heat bakes concrete you plod along The bodies are adding up another casualty to your tongue Chorus The Signs point southward Red and Black and down Aches without gains, for days and weeks and months The patterns predictable you sleep walk from dawn to dusk I’m going nowhere but I’m building a solid argument Chorus All the signs point backwards Your Red with wrath and dumb The Signs point backwards Red and Black and down Chorus The Signs point backwards Red and Black and down The Signs point southward Red and Black and down
7.
Clocking Peace Signs No longer If their bodies are not their own A Mans Plans don’t belong here, Over reaching and Out of touch Chorus The Hounds Badly aging too many Bibles and too many Guns Obtuse and Braying slow words Cracked preachers Lording, lording beyond their flocks Brave Women flee here, Leave them aching in your dust Chorus The Hounds Badly aging too many Bibles and too many guns Obtuse and Braying slow words Sunk and beaten, leave them broken in your dust, sucking in your dust Chorus The Hounds Badly aging to many Bibles and too many armed Obtuse and Braying slow words
8.
Soft clouds and indigo, hot sand your skin glows The dead on perfect sunset Eye’s glazed, long shadows Breathe in and hold a bold and deeper contrast Chorus Oh, lie on the bed Killing sheep, your Wide awake Oh why would you sleep when you can break your enemy VS 2 Sit still breathe thru your nose, Under the microscope Every dream you’ve ever dreamt Blank walls white canvases conserve your output don’t you give the game away Chorus 2 Oh, stand on the bed Killing sheep, Your Wide awake Hey, why would you sleep when you can blind your enemies Chorus 3 Oh, Burning on the bed Killing the sheep, Your Wide awake Oh why would you sleep when you can Break your enemies When you’re your own worst enemy!
9.
I miss the night, Now that I live in the day The wonderful dark where I could play So few the monsters that I knew by name Do they wonder what’s become of me Chorus 1 I love my Olde religion, The one with a snake and Spells So Plain my Demon heart could tell. VS 2 They live for the sun, I wait for the light to fade Bright and white never was my thing I count off the days for what winter brings The long cold nights and her black embrace Chorus 2 I love my Olde religion, The one with a snake and Spells So Plain my Demon/wicked heart could tell. Vs 3 My monsters will come for me And I’ll be here waiting, I’ll be waiting Chorus 3 I love my Olde religion, The one with a snake and Spells So Plain my wicked heart could tell.

Slicked back Preacher with Cult leader vibes Filling the pews with gruesome lies Pointing their fingers and Sigue Heiling Dead Beats Calling for blood right out in the streets Trading their crosses for wicked guns Banning the books, abortion and love Christian perfection is on any every lip Dystopian promise this time is going to stick Chorus Lesser Humans Lets Celebrate, open our eyes concentrate Evangenitals, Agitate. Vile Pod People replicating I’m ready to rumble I’m out go Taking down Fasc with a push and a shove Expecting the wins right out in the streets! Not in a church and not on my knees Chorus Lesser Humans Lets Celebrate, open our eyes concentrate Evangenitals, Agitate, Vile Pod People replicating Chorus Lesser Humans Lets Celebrate, open your eyes concentrate Evangenitals, Agitate, Vile Pod Peeps so replicating

about

Lesser Humans was recorded Between July 2022 to March 2023. I produced the record from my space in SF, Etruria and the 4 continents these amazing musicians contributed from; North America, Great Britain, South America and Africa. Each musician had their own space to do their majick which lent to the over all sonic characteristic and stylings of Lesser Humans.
Lesser Humans is an eclectic adventure of styles ranging from Psych Folk Rock, Retro Soul, Garage Rock, Gristly Americana to Ooff road punk adventures. It all blends into an enjoyable album experience well worthy of repeat listens . The lyrical content is another peak into whats center stage politically and socially and other more personal stories about the love of Horror films, Night time and dark passengers as well as the murder of your personal demons while you lay awake in the small hours. Thank you for your support in creating and releasing my 8th full Length Album LESSER HUMANS!
