Untitled
6/12/92(Marc Bailey)
My destiny in your hands, can you really see? Temporarily blinded we can't go blind for free.
The sorriest recommendation the most beautiful bride, a non-reformation keeps building inside.
The unwinding fairy tale a cliff hanger of sorts A monger strikes maliciously our hero left, a corpse.
A true ring of honor broken, yet unveiled in her final hour we saw his limits fail.
Deceit, our minds are darkened the flow becomes quite strong, Drowning our last decency killing fields, and shadows of wrong.
The answer lies in thanks take a look around your life; My only remorse is for myself this state is my prison?.
My paradise?... Top
Pain in the Life
(Marc Bailey, David Brown)
It's pain in the life of the day you were given, Lost in the lies are the truths of the living.
As only one then things look quite different, But as more reality replaced anger.
Blood stains their signs as they pray for the dying, But wolves now live within the flock you see gathered.
Feeding on the young while the old are sleeping, The red tainted dew evaporates with the sunshine.
It's pain that you feel with your hands on my coffin, The life that I gave you does it all seem important?
Yes I thought all would come to you when I could see it, I hope you have remembered now. As you hear these words in your head,
does it all feel as madness must feel? I can assure you it is I, now you're lying here (facing the same decision).
You see it but words, do they have any meaning? So many want to be heard. If it all ends now, can you carry on? But if I let go, have you learned?

Shiny Love
2/92
His mouth sings unending praises of her beauty and her charm, he utters thankful phrases for each of her acts of love.
On winter nights for the rest o' his life he wants to keep her body warm, to sweep her away and make her his wife Shelter her from all life's storms.
Oh, Shiny Love, oh homeless heart she take it away, all de sorrow an' pain and she blow me fears apart. Oh Shiny Love, stay wit me tonite
I give you all dats inside me lo' an' tings will work out right.
Feels like he's known her for ages an' lo'd her all dese years, he wants her tink him courageous but she sees his shameful tears.
Nay, she don't care he's reckless an' his many udder flaws, she lo's him in de perfect ways like God himself does.
Repeat chorus
Dis man I describe to you, now complete mental basket case, his t'oughts collide an' he feels inside like he's always in a race.
But he gives his love completely to dis lovely woman, yeah an' she response like a' readin' his mind makes his heart fly free.

Portrait of a Soulmate
2/20/92
Pictures of the brotherhood days and eternal wasted nights, the love was shared in excess and on it taken flight.
Forgot the days isolation no record be there known, just buried tear-stained pages and heart felt morose poems.
Frozen moments untainted with complicated weights, smiles on frozen faces inseparable mates. Am I my brother's keeper, let be there no more doubt, deep-seated art my respect for thee and never be without.
Bedrock seals that bond now, these pictures but a taste, of depths we've flown with broken wings and cannot be erased.
Soulmate, and best friend you'll never be alone,
you carried me through manic lifetimes solid as stone. Messiah without a throne. Top
Twenty-four Year Blues
(M. David Brown)
Locked in the shadows from politically diverse inclination The norm has moved around in the warm blood of this nation
Poor in revolt from the violence of arms and addiction Always recoursed to the back alley-ways of Government Housing
Crack on the sidewalks and cracks through our education The candle burns on while Politics compromises segregation
Bickering in the White House all is greed and lost doctrine People have grown tired of Government debt and stagnation
Have a toke, some blow, a fix and a drinkful of madness Dependency of Drugs and wild unstoppable psychosis
Bombarded by a compulsion to inflict blind punishment on a Society of slaves and mindless law enforcement
There is no turning back from this road to extinction A World on the verge of collapse from Industrial Pollution
Once born out of love, man is born out of Wedlock in basements of crack houses and boxes on the sidewalks. Top
Wondering
1/9/98 Music 10/14/94
Love is blackened with deep despair, I wonder and worry when you're not here - Will you love me the same tomorrow?
I never think it when we quarrel, only myself until tomorrow- I cry those empty tears.
Jealously befriends me without permission I stumble unknowingly into it's submission Do you hate me for this fault?
The things in life I can do without bring me down when you're not around Do you know or are you blind?
My crumbling character cries out to you will you save me, or are we through? My screams echo into blackness.
I long for you in moments of pain my tears continue, and I refrain. Will you love me the same tomorrow? Top
Guardian Angel
8/25/92
I've never known such serenity since entering the light of the Lord.
His gifts far greater than wings to birds and the depth of truth in His word.
Chorus
Life was grey, night or day until you were sent to me Love,
roses had no sight or smell 'til your assignment to me,
my guardian angel.
My thanks to dear old St. Christopher of Jesus Himself the Man,
the one who knew that I needed you and made you a part of the plan.
The sun, it shines for you Love and I thee cherish till death,
my heart thy know is true Love with each angelic breath.
My gratitude spans a light year for God's most precious gift,
this heavenly soul before me now who cause this joy to live.
O' captainess of my sailing ship thou art my compass for life,
through God and you I trust we'll sail beyond the endless tide.
Heaven-sent vision of loveliness who makes my dreams come true
Karla my guardian angel this song from my heart - for you. Top
Grace
The Lord shined his grace on me and I smile. My happiness hath shown greatly from within.
Freed from death's grasp and fear of life. I pray I never feel afraid to rise in morning,
to feel hopeless ever again.
The Lord shine his grace on me and I sang. Songs of hope and praise for Him who delivered us.
Hymns that soared on dove's wings to all mankind. Touching deaf ears and stone hearts with His love.
His kingdom will have no end. Top
The Forgettable Ones
8/4/92
Leo sings his song high above the smoky waters.
His vast requiem of mirth flowing out with the tide.
Sadly, he is heard by no one. The traffic unaware of his anguish
quickly passes him by.
The next day some will read his name as the media sells his soul.
But few will remember, I'll never forgot. The name of Leo.
Father of two - son of many, His eyes see past the surface of time
that has passed him by. His life but a pebble making no waves
Lest a ripple he shall see The startling end to his days.
Chorus
Instead of pity, Charity
it's Brotherhood. (comin' alive inside)
It's not money, don't have to bleed, the forgettable ones livin' in the street. Top
First Impressions
2/18/79
(Karla Bailey) Put to music 10/14/94
To dream
To become another
To please
To care
To love for a moment but I loved you.
Chorus
To explore
To desire
To hold
To conquer
To love for a moment but I really loved you.
Chorus
To give
To take
To expect
To hoard
To pull the strings which I ever so gently placed in your hand
Chorus
And I loved, and I loved, and I loved you
