about

Once again the Lord told Jonah to go to that great city of Nineveh and preach his message of doom. Jonah obeyed the Lord and went to Nineveh. The city was so big that it took three days just to walk through it. After walking for a day, Jonah warned the people, “Forty days from now, Nineveh will be destroyed!” They believed God's message and set a time when they would go without eating to show their sorrow. Then everyone in the city, no matter who they were, dressed in sackcloth. When the king of Nineveh heard what was happening, he also dressed in sackcloth; he left the royal palace and sat in dust. Then he and his officials sent out an order for everyone in the city to obey. It said: None of you or your animals may eat or drink a thing. Each of you must wear sackcloth, and you must even put sackcloth on your animals. You must also pray to the Lord God with all your heart and stop being sinful and cruel. Maybe God will change his mind and have mercy on us, so we won't be destroyed.

When God saw that the people had stopped doing evil things, he had pity and did not destroy them as he had planned. Jonah‬ ‭3‬:‭1-10‬

lyrics

Take the steps to the bottom and take a moment
It's a step forward what's behind it you own it
Only a few would even dare to explore
Travel through time behind the cellar door

The most beautiful words that I could choose to write
Would be these two besides truth and life
I'm a living receiver and I'm stellar to the core
My insurance trap is through the cellar door

+++

I reflect and expect respect with a check
What I bank on is breath in excess to my death
I know my music isn't empty where does the radio send me
Who wants to book me with my poetic ministry

My poems aren't industry no one shows sympathy
Listen to my lyrics I make you think I put it simply
I pour out my soul till I'm empty feeling envy
should I prefer you ignore me, or pretend to be friendly

i cant make you bob your head or tap your feet
i want to move your soul, not make you dance to the beat
thats why im here to be heard if i'm not felt
just look at my style I have a collar and a belt

i can blend in the crowd look just like you
or i can stand out like a bruise that's new
watch me set the example, set the tone and pace
Guess I'm not of this world, 'cause I'm so outter space

+++

Take the steps to the bottom and take a moment
It's a step forward what's behind it you own it
Only a few would even dare to explore
Travel through time behind the cellar door

The most beautiful words that I could choose to write
Would be these two besides truth and life
I'm a living receiver and I'm stellar to the core
My insurance trap is through the cellar door

+++

Only rhymes will heal and the blood will be spilled
Ice needs time to chill and our love is a thrill
the storm is coming to follow the children
to deliver them from the kingdom of pain within

return them to their porches of the fortress
in the enemies underground, can we afford this
the price we pay is payable on death
sacrifice and be saved, as stable as stress

reunite with visitors from a past long gone
like the plutonium make it flash on and on
its the flux compacitor dont try to pass it up
the nucear reactor built from ash and dust

act if you trust that i compose chemistry
balance is found when you expose symetry
Not a third eye lets expand your minds
open up your lobes listen seek and find

+++

Take the steps to the bottom and take a moment
It's a step forward what's behind it you own it
Only a few would even dare to explore
Travel through time behind the cellar door

The most beautiful words that I could choose to write
Would be these two besides truth and life
I'm a living receiver and I'm stellar to the core
My insurance trap is through the cellar door
