I'm gonna start a Friendship Revolution
A new Declaration and Constitution Ain't gonna be no theft or destitution As a prophecy in my revolution I've been singing of you For as long a I knew That a love that is true Is like a picture God drew You hair's waving in the air And I ain't got a care Coz I see you over there You're my everywhere And it's a Friendship Revolution Eternal love the only final solution Everlasting end to retribution In my friendly song of revolution Would you read a book I wrote Full of musical note No need to stay afloat This castle ain't got a moat This is a Friendship Revolution Mixing random words causes convolution This cause ain't subject to dilution Confusion can't kill this revolution It's a revolution One that you can't shun No peace can be won Without revolution Copyright (c) 2016 Joshua Ransom Packard

We're at an impasse
Life itself is on the line Failing the eternal class Opposing the divine mind We've got weapons of war Aimed at each others' heads Killing's what they're for Pulling triggers til we're all dead Assymetric warfare Doesn't seem like God cares We claim Him each on our side We run but can't hide Dear God! Hear my cry Help us love each other Before we all die Dear God! Set us straight Before we all explode In the shrapnel of hate Pour Your love into us Our souls as vessels of grace To love is what we must If we ever want to see Your Face It's an atomic Armageddon Mutually assured destruction We're getting pulled into the maelstrom Infinite gravitational suction Bombs and terror We're all in error Eternal acts of vengeance Everyone shooting Terror recruiting Violent plunge in a death dance Dear God! Don't forsake us Help us love each other Before Hell breaks us Dear God! Shine down your light Show us how to love Before might makes right Copyright (c) 2016 Joshua Ransom Packard Write a song a day
For what is temporal won't stay Ideas of eternity Write a song a day for me Don't give up And don't ever Let go of Life! Copyright (c) 2016 Joshua Ransom Packard I want you
To have all you need I want you To thrive and succeed I want you To live out your dreams To live, to love To burst at the seams I don't have much To give someone like you I lost a crutch And wore out all my shoes I felt so stuck Felt so far away But now I'm back And I'm here to stay I'm givin' all I have Givin' all I am I'm givin' all of me to you To no one but you I'm givin' all of me to you The only life I know is true Feel like you deserve better But what else can I do I don't deserve you But what else can I do Givin' all of me to you All I have, all I am Givin' to you through and through All I will, all I can Copyright (c) 2016 Joshua Ransom Packard I wanna talk with you today
About things I never say Can I gather up all the nerve Of straight paths I always curve? I wanna write you a love story Heroic virtue, eternal glory Where two souls meet bright and true Starring roles played by me and you It's a story of crossed pathways Present, future, and all past days Closing in on some convergence Volcano erupts love's emergence It's a miracle Irrefutable I want to write you a love story A crystal ball through which I foresee Don't let it die Before it's allive What I don't say To you from me I wanna write you a love story Copyright (c) 2016 Joshua Ransom Packard I drove over the side of a bridge
Landed in a quicksand ditch Don't know whether I'm poor or rich ...Or which is which Couldn't handle my loss of fame A dozen years been outta the game Lost everything, got nuthin but shame ...and no one else to blame But me... No one else to blame but me Locked the door, and tossed the key I was a bastard in the third degree With no one else to blame but me Thought that I had found the cure Got tricked with bait and switch as lure Dragged my soul through miles of sewer ...Til I found who you were My mind was scourged and maimed Til God Himself from on high came Reminded me of my true name ...and took away the pain From me I had no one else to blame but me But through me Christ could always see I was slave to sin and misery And only He could set me free ...Set me free Copyright (c) 2016 Joshua Ransom Packard Taking aim at a full time victory
In the name of full rhyme literacy Storing coffers of words wonderful Like diet vegetables alphabetical Quirks grammatical and parenthetical Purely suitable, sublime and beautiful Education fruitful to beyond what's usable Vocalizing vibrations and sweet salutations More than mere information squeezed through dense inebriation Delightful and dialectical Tested, tried, and true subliminal Intentional, conscious and un-criminal Maximum value of the minimal Vocabulary strained and flexing As some Wiccan form of hexing Green, and red and yellow directing Like the parallel intersecting Bite the apple to the core Crush the juice into some more Dancing flavors back in store Let it discover what it's for Copyright (c) Joshua Packard 2015 She's right in front of me
She wraps around behind Her bright eyes lined in my dark shadow The soul opaque reflections of my mind Tho' lonely for air grazed skin To rub against her soft cheek Her starry gaze marked in vectors Paints the map to what I seek With Raven locks about her hair Her smile has always stirred the air I have felt her presence everywhere But like a ghost, she was not there She's skilled with a sword Yet makes peace out of chaos She is but one with the sun As dark arise he turns the day off And Her flowing wavy locks She waves like the ocean Yes, she reflects the sun's Flickering light in motion Her gentle touch given with care Her smile stirring the air Her intentions always fair O! My Lord, has Created her somewhere! Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard Gone not yet from memory
Still it's become putrid I've wrapped up that path Mirrors came hard to see No one's sharing eyes with me I try to pass out shards but just draw blood I can easily say lines that rhyme (Art is easy) Much harder to make even the cleverest lines contain Even after maintain inside them what only behind is true If anything being relative in the mind The know that I see and the feel that I breathe Crawling inside me, has it learned to relate to you Your language don't fit with me It wouldn't with you Pass it on Pass it on Skip a generation Simple minority strong hands In a world of feet Make it by It's disappointing enough to cry The baby can't say but knows why No one writes this song before I die I didn't write this song and it's died Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard I'm the musician who hates music
I'm this writer who hates words Optimist who hates opportunity The friend who hates you This seeker who hates truth Activist who hates action Pleasure seeker who hates satisfaction Doctor...hates health ...sneak/spy/dastard hates stealth Minister who hates the scripture Canvas painter who hates the picture [not big picture, but little used for small that is clear] The dock watcher who hates shore Measure the edge, it's always more Doctor who hates immunity Carry you higher with impugnity Gatemaster who hates the key The existance that hates the 'be' I'm this user who hates drug I'm the lover who hates love Worker who hates to earn All near I've hate to yearn Motivator who hates to inspire Sleeper who hates to tire This one who shows who hates what you see Illustrator who hates the portrayal that is not me Servant who hates the service Hate this structure, the method worthless Hate what here was good, now is tart On distance from start are apart This is not beating hateful heart Copyright (c) 2003-2016 Joshua Ransom Packard |
