Shes an Echo of a dream, a site unseen, a fragment of sleepless nights.
Eyes shining in the city lights, her hair as black as night.
And when I see her crooked smile... it make me dance for a while.
Shes a modern muse with Vintage views
an analog soul in a digital world
(Chorus)
And everytime I see her face around
I hear a special kinda of sound.
She walking in these crowded streets her internal pulse to an urban beat.
From a Binary world, her feet on the earth.
A supernova set to explode.
And when I see her crooked smile... it make me dance for a while.
Shes a modern muse with Vintage views
an analog soul in a digital world
(Chorus)
And everytime I see her face around
I hear a special kinda of sound.

GOLD
There are kings who have riches untold.
There are queens who's money gets old.
Fancy things may glitter & shine but they don't hold up to the brilliance of your eyes.
Pockets poor but my heart is deep, wont you take my hand, come and walk with me.
walk this life with me...
There are men who want the world at their feet.
There are women who have egos to feed.
Attitude and greed can get you many things, but you're rich in personality.
Some people want fortune and fame, some people want the world to blame.
But hurt and hate know that love is the cure, and baby what u got is pure.
Chorus:
Every time I see the light of your smile, it reminds me what we have is GOLD. (X3)
There are men who are wretches of the world.
There are women who want diamonds and pearls.
But Physical things... Have no hold on sensual beings...
So put your body next to mine and let your heart beat sync to the rhythm of our lives.
I was just a lonely soul with no other place to call home.
Then you walked into my life & like a butterfly my heart was reborn!
like a butterfly my heart was reborn, reborn, reborn.
I'm lucky yes I know it's true, Cause I'm gifted every time I'm with you!
Chorus:
Every time I see the light of your smile, it reminds me what we have is GOLD. (X2)

Hey there why you look sad.
Your heart is beating it aint that bad
Sometimes its tough to see brighter days,
Sky will turn all shades of grey
Things will change and fade away
Time gives space to rearrange....

One Day.......
Chorus
Butterfly Butterfly Smile like sunrise
Butterfly Butterfly put your head up
Butterfly Butterfly Smile like sunrise
Butterfly Butterfly Its gonna be alright

Verse1 X 3
In the time of the great divide
My people were left behind
In the time of the great divide
I stood up and I survived.
And everybody said!
Verse 2
African beats... rhythms and rhymes
Allow for me to sing all the damn time
Been singing this song 400 years long
From the time.. when blackness was a crime
Africa, Colombia, Mexico, Peru
We Dancin on the east side wrapped in our Zoot suits
Africa, Colombia, Mexico, Peru
We Dancin on the east side wrapped in our Zoot suits
With Blood on our hands and mud on our boots
Ain't no denying our afro-latino roots.
Musica Y alma Y alma
Me da esperanza
Musica Y alma Y alma
Me da esperanza

Verse 1
Souls on fire
With burning desire for you
Lets take this higher
I feel alright when im with you
So hold your fate tonight.
Feeling our temperature rise.
Hope the day, dont arrive
Im ready to feel the night
Hold your fate tonight.
Feeling our temperature rise.
Hope the day, dont arrive
Im ready to feel the night
Chorus
Burning, Burning, Burning.....
Verse 2
And the day and the night
They collided with the sea
Holding hands taking stands
Im where I want to be.
So Hold your fate tonight.
Feeling our temperature rise.
Hope the day, dont arrive
Im ready to feel the night
Our bodies moving
I'm feeling your heartbeat close to mine
The night is soothing
Leaving our troubles far behind
So Hold your fate tonight.
Feeling our temperature rise.
Hope the day, dont arrive
Im ready to feel the night.
Chorus....

Umama
Your mama, my mama
You gave birth long before I was born
To the summer to the seas to the land of a million trees
To the rivers that ran for miles from the Chumash to the Nile
To the mountains made of rock, beauty, granite
To the patches of life you granted
You taught us about the solstice about the seasons.
How to grow how to love for all the right reasons
You created the ocean breeze
all the family the deep blue sea
You never meant for us stay
You wanted us to be free you wanted us to be free
And I love you…. Umama
Umama forgive me
For taking all your water after we begged for rain
For fracking through your bones causing you so much pain
Chopped down your trees that allowed you to breathe
Stole all your seeds after we watched you bleed
For the wars and for the hate
My dear Umama theres not much more you can take
Im sorry for what Ive done, Im sorry for what Ive done
As children of the earth we offer you our breath our prayer and our song
Please be with me Umama as we sing along…
Please be with me Umama as we sing along…
Umama resamos, Umama Bailamos, Umama Cantos Pa ti.
Umama resamos, Umama Bailamos, Umama Cantos Pa ti.
Umama resamos, Umama Bailamos, Umama Cantos Pa ti.
Umama resamos, Umama Bailamos, Umama Cantos Pa ti.
