about

Observing events and choices that lead to our inception. Donning the chain of events that lead to the present aesthetically rather than oppressively. Recognizing masterpieces may rise out of the most dismal origin.

lyrics

I've got some old flames whose heat sears,
but if not for old flames I wouldn't be here,
There's nothing I'd take to repeat my sins for,
but if not for some sins, I might not have been born.

Strange how the things that plague me
are the same that made me
Strange how the things I regret
are the seeds I needed,

No chemical vices I choose I submit to.
Might not have been advice
if not for what they'd been through
There have been people who I've let abuse me,
But if not for bruises I wouldn't seek beauty.

Odd how the things that seize us
are the same that free us,
Odd how the things that siege us
are the same that teach us.

There may be awkwardness
in our origins,
but even awful limbs,
with morbid tints
bear cores within,
one autumn wind or
storm will rip it
from the leaves thrown,
clouds pour the swim
for seeds sown,
In scores of ticks
there will be a tree grown
for a Rembrandt
to make a portrait with
an easel
portraying gorgeousness
with ease, most remember it:
rain waters it and reaps growth
earth fosters it in a deep cloak,
so next time you hate these zones
please know that you need both...

Strange how the things that plague me
are the same that made me
Strange how the things I regret
are the seeds I needed,
Odd how the things that seize us
are the same that free us,
Odd how the things that siege us
are the same that teach us.
