Far East Jam 08:06
I spent my youth in the forest, wading in the salt pools Underneath the watchful eye of one made blind by the fog of fools By the fog of fools Bound by these chains that still exist, we managed to persist My brothers and I ran for our lives, and now we ride We ride I know, (I know) it’s not far to the promised land Let’s go, (Let’s go) come along and take my hand I know, (I know) it’s not far to the promised land So sing along with me, we’re at the heart of the far east jam I spent my youth in the desert, on the back of a pale horse Blinded by sandstorms I came across the cave of forms, where I began to lose my mind My mind Emerging on the other side I caught my stride and began to move forward My brothers reappeared as the city neared we had finally arrived It’s all right

Jungle Cat 04:46
When she’s in a jungle cat mood I’m jungle cat food Can’t feel the music but she walkin' in the groove Stalking her prey sneaking along bobbin' her tail to the beat of the song Eyes like diamonds shinin' in the night With her there’s no flight, just fight, alright? So sleep tight She’s on the prowl tonight Jungle Cat Whats the word? Jungle Cat Chase the Bird Don’t open up that window, you’ll never know where she’ll go Then I’ll be asking you for Momo Grinding away when she really wants to play But there’s no time for lovin' til the end of the day Starts to get pissy, think she might miss me Walk down the stairs and who do I see Starin’ thru my soul from her cardboard throne, she don’t condone bein' all alone Til I give her a hug and then she starts to bug out Her doin' her is what she’s all about Here’s the truth, I’m a jungle cat too Stayin' up all night is a thing I do Nocturnal by nature, I love a good laser And dank catnip has got me like ooh Just a fine feline, speakin' my mind With a rhyme slightly out of time If you’re a funky cat, let me know where you at But not now cause it’s time for a nap. I'm a jungle cat.

How to Be 04:28
Drop your notion preconceived Express yourself, and be at ease Open your mind and receive Open wide Don’t fear emotion unknown Once a crying child, you learn to flow Trust you’ll find your way to go Trust you’ll find And it really doesn’t matter what you think it’s all about And we really don’t know where we’re gonna go so we gotta just be in the moment With its twists and turns it’s easy to want out But we take it bit by bit, through the good, through the shit always knowin' there’s an end to it all so we live Without fear, we fight the anxiety for what could come. So we live Connected to this world, to each other to our friends that really matter. So we live There’s a rhyme, there’s a reason that we gonna just keep on bein' And we ain’t never ever comin down Retract from this physical world Sittin back, the beauty of it all unfurls Think to slow down, the end is for sure Take your time
