It took me a minute to gather my words I'm taking things step by step nowadays I'm trying to change my ways I'm taking everything at a proper pace ... at least for today It gets overwhelming when I don't put a filter on it I can't be the only one who revisits the past so often Back and forth Between right and wrong What I should have said, What I could have changed What I would have done It's all done, set in stone No going back, no wrinkle in time To live life in regret is to live life in waste No one will take you higher than you will take yourself So plant the seeds and make sure to water the plants Watch your creation unfold Only you can make the chains loose As time unravels, return to your muse

Head Aches 07:40
A timpani eardrum Pounding through my skull into my brain I did this to myself Dried my water reserves Morning headaches Chemical imbalances I've grown tired of my surroundings A quiet life sounds astounding Hypothetically speaking What if these troubles that got me freaking out aren't real - a mental dead end No resolve but I can pretend I've dumbed myself down I swear I can change Seeking thrills, seeking truth, seeking knowledge Wasting time is a tragedy I'm not searching for answers I'm evolving for strength Why do we kill brain cells for pleasure? Why do we make excuses for failure? Why do we take pills for well-being? Why do we kill each other for survival? Why do we kill brain cells for pleasure? I've dumbed myself down Are you still listening? Are you still here? Do these melodies mean anything to you at all? Are you surprised? Are you frightened? Are these questions getting through at all? Hypothetically speaking What if these troubles that got me freaking out Aren't real - a mental dead end No resolve but I can pretend I've dumbed myself down I swear I can change Seeking thrills, seeking truth, seeking knowledge Wasting time is a tragedy I'm not searching for answers I'm evolving for strength

I don't need to do this You don't need to listen We're in a holographic universe But I'm sure space and time mean nothing to you right now You're right, You're wrong Dual concepts and constructs Oblivious self-destruction Mental cacophonous Fear of metropolis Days are monotonous We feel anonymous Moments you forget You're stuck inside your head Days are miraculous So what the problem is - is you've been overthinking all along I will fight for you but I will not shed blood You are here, you are sacred and besides I'd rather dance to wee hours of the morn Then wish I'd never been born Fall in love with synchronicity Embrace all ethnicities Find your roots and return to mother nature All of the above Easier said than done Cognitive dissonance Barrel of the gun... we ruin all the fun Nature take the reins and wash it all away I am guilty too of abandoning you I am abandoning my Hypocritical negative train of thought I refuse to be a micro-chipped robot What's with the humanistic urge to conquer and purge I regurgitate the words of a spirt so hurt This virtual reality could be a utopian plane But here we are self-medicating Goin' insane here we go a' preachin' again I'm just a creature and it's kinda neat you're here with me You're here with me But do you hear me? Don't forget that we are spirits Living as one Lay down all thought and surrender to the void Choose your own adventure baby Nature will call you maybe The universe knows you're not crazy I don't need to do this You don't need to listen We're in a holographic universe But I'm sure space and time mean nothing to you right now You're right, You're wrong Dual concepts and constructs Oblivious self-destruction Mental cacophonous Fear of metropolis Days are monotonous We feel anonymous Moments you forget You're stuck inside your head Days are miraculous So what the problem is - is you've been overthinking all along

Seeing through new eyes Rinsing off the dirt and grime I've seen the perils of inaction Bedridden, how does it happen? I spent most of my twenties A scrambled mess of a brain I spent the last decade On the verge of insane All the feels Eat healthy meals Eat food from the Earth Read books, ride bikes Feed your brain This is your show So surreal You can heal, face yourself Look within Summon your powers out of the ether We need your powers Send that magic out your fingertips I spent ten years in a fit of anger Floating on a river Tainted by jealous fervor Not feeling included my consciousness diluted Alienation from those I love In a fit of anger Ain't too late to simplify You cannot turn back the time Pick yourself up off the ground and get reborn Now's your chance to simplify Do something with your time Put yourself back in the game Rebirth of a zombie When you first rev up to fly You may not make it to the sky One day you'll come around and get airborne Work up courage to go defy All the times you felt like nothing Feel the air beneath your wings You're a natural! Got the urge to redefine All the hurt you've kept inside Shed the exoskeleton. you're reborn The wind is at your back Aim high above the horizon Feel the air beneath your wings You're airborne Simplifier, simplify Simplify your life Simplify your thoughts All the clutter Throw it all away and restart I spent ten years In a fit of anger Floating on a river Tainted by jealous fervor Not feeling included My consciousness diluted Alienation from those I love In a fit of anger

What a terribly odd chain of events The plot thickens, the mind expands The words fall out Darkness falls I'm free Free-falling in the tunnel I am sickened by people and their beliefs I am dumbed down by the internet Why play around? Why play stupid? This is what somebody wanted Static memory, delayed reaction Fragmented machine Discombobulated Vacant delivery Hesitation Lobotomize my temple and erase all information Chemical relief Eyeball Dilation Whatever could have been done any different? The plot thickens. the mind expands The words fall out Darkness falls on me Free-falling in the darkness Narcoleptic attempt trying to escape There is work to be done and no time to tap out Time won't wait for you It's such a cliche but it's the truth A narcotic attempt just trying to escape There is work to be done and your tapping out Now you've lost it all Sorry my friend, sorry it's the end Static memory Delayed reaction Fragmented machine Discombobulated Vacant delivery Hesitation Chemical relief Eyeball Dilation I get sick of this I get sick of observing and worrying about the future 'Cuz I mean shit man.. so what are we even here for? What? Did I just commit a party foul? 'Cuz I can't take anything seriously anymore There's no balance and all that we've worked hard for could vanish into thin air I get sick of this - sick of observing And worrying .. I keep worrying About the future The point of no return Why so serious? I'm just getting started... I'm sickened by people and their beliefs The plot thickens, the mind expands The words fall out What are we here for? Static memory Delayed reaction Fragmented machine Discombobulated Vacant delivery Hesitation Lobotomize my temple and erase all information Chemical relief Eyeball Dilation

I am here I will be here I have been here Always here for you You are never there You won't ever be there You are always here in the now Holding nothing back Nothing is what it seems We are intimate beings Let's see what the future brings Your world sings to me Your world's a giving tree I climbed too high I am falling down with the leaves Leave the attitude You leave an impact A seismic crater More than you'll ever know

Naked Me 05:35
Elevated feelings Like the high we got when we first saw our patterns weave together Complicated beings Simplify and realize that life is neverending circles Buzzin' in the sun Now feels great The energy is explosive You show me where now is This is where the magic happens Elevated feelings Like the high we got when we first saw our patterns weave together Complicated beings Simplify and realize that life is neverending circles Elevated feelings Like the joy we get We can put our lives back in order Diversify your words 'Cuz this is one big circle I feel free when I'm naked No clothes on my body Just naked me No fear or foe or worry Just naked me I I am me, I am free, here is my song I've got some baggage At least I have cabbage, I know you know Ha! The colors are staring me right in the face The feels are real like the wings of humminbirds Like a blur I I'm smart enough to know what I cannot change I'm dumb when I lose it, throwing tantrums like a kid Can I just say it's wonderful to know you? You've touched my heart in a way that can't be undone This is where the magic happens This is where the magic happened

For The Past 06:33
Life is not always positive The thing about negativity... The only way is to push forward Take only what you need for your life and push on with your life Take what you need Go on the wild ride I've been recording for the past Listening for the future Singing for the present Observing for eternity Couldn't get zombie out of bed today Hard to shake the cobwebs off my brain Vultures are rippin' everything away All our freedoms and liberties Humans have so much more to give This hell isn't how we have to live We're fearsome, we're lonesome We win some, we lose some We're chromosomes, awesome! I've seen some shit I get so stuck Still working through pain and regret and just when I think that I've dealt with all the troubles of my past I need to not make things such a struggle for myself It's a daily effort You know what you have to do You know you have to work hard But still you get stuck I'm going to show you the way out It may not feel like it You may not believe me But it's you I've been recording for the past Listening for the future Singing for the present Observing for eternity Take only what you need for your life and push on with your life Take what you need Go on the wild ride

Bad Loop 06:52
The latest craze The fear of missing out Nocturnal musings The fear is in my head I'm dead Drunken kiss You think you can get this? Amend this mess and we'll talk I look forward to when the dust will settle Alcohol-fueled words You thought may be the truth Well it might be You think you can get through this? Well what's stopping you Is it your excuses? It's hard to fathom stillness Will this cabin fever drift into the ether on a frozen meteor? Down the cosmic highway A dreamlike fantasy That I would like to see Don't you laugh at me I would like to see A good life for everyone Different paths, lotta laughs Adventures in nature Contemplative culture Freedom from the vultures Not indulge in fascist Cults and lies that media Perpetuate and turn us into Consumers like that's all we'll ever be Life comes at ya and knocks you down It don't stop 'til you're underground People fendin' for themselves Racing 'til the end it isn't real Well I hope I don't take the wind from out your sails You want it your way to find the holy grail All this manmade bullshit Intolerance is blind, and haters are cruel We're stuck in a bad loop

If you love relentlessly Perhaps you were put here To heal this reality If you think deeply Perhaps you were put here To give things meaning If you feel like a victim It is time to take matters into your own hands If you feel out of rhythm Take time to make time Remember to breathe You are our only hope Hope springs eternal If you hear this song Perhaps we were meant to know each other in this life That is our only hope Remember to breathe You are our only hope Hope springs eternal That is our only hope You Make Sense

about

Zombie Mañana Chicago, Illinois

Hello, I'm Zombie Mañana. No fear is the next frontier. PERSEVERE; embrace the blood, sweat, and tears.
This half-man, half-dream seeks refuge from this place, this world where everything is a race. Tragedies and adversities taught me more than universities. Happiness and ecstasy comes from living with no jealousy. All it takes to be inspiring is to be inspired, and now is the time to rewire. ... more
