Seen A Ghost
02:27

Yeah
Now that I’m settled in
Take a little walk, explore this property
Sit at this table maybe
Write a little bit
Yeah
Always tormented so I brain storm
Til the winds behind my sails and the waves form
If angels on the way I can no longer wait for em
Swear it’s been this way since the day I was born
Follow my foot prints in between the claymores
The wolf chases the boar who do you pray for
Wish I can say more
Wish I can say more
Say less, pay off the debt keep pushing forward
When I take a long walk I
be looking for words
Describe the way I feel before it goes numb
How can I remind you of someone if I’m no one
Sometimes I don’t press record, just try to remember
Memories are so heavy yet light as a feather
Put my all into writing a song that’s about nothing
It’s clear as sunny skies I have clouded judgement
When it rains it pours
Asked God to make the pain stop then felt the rain drops in Alaska
Married to the bread let me propose a toast
My billfolds will make you sick and how it grows is gross
You’re closer to folks the farther from home you go
My road let me west, hit the coast and coast
Work at a plant, a school of salmon will teach who you are
Always dig deep as you reach for the stars
So much meaning rooted in each of these bars
Bear scratches on tree bark how I’m leaving my mark
Stay sharp as the teeth of the creatures in the dark
If life‘s a beach what’s a shark, how empty is Art
Davy Jones locker without a key or the heart
Smell the sea salt, breathe hard hit the restart
Just an honest Chico no cheat code
On this journey with a vision like Coleco
Speak from the soul as the beat goes
Let it repeat in my skull in the brief lullsalico
Took a walk with people, some alter ego’s
Saw a flock of seagulls, a crane, and a bald eagle
On the way back I’ll take an Amtrak and write on the scenic coast
Pull up on you it’s like you’ve seen a ghost

No Hooks
02:49
|

|
I ate breakfast in two minutes
This song has no chorus, no Hooks
All lines
Yeah
Raindrops on my white tea
Flow high key so enlightening you might see it dance with your kite string
Sunrises be bright pink and I swear I’m busy as I’ve ever been
Cursed like conversing with fisherman
Still fresher than a peppermint
Pussy all on my breath again
It’s a diet I highly recommend
Got a taste palette for estrogen
Cup of juice, little extra gin
Want to start a fire, let my record spin
This wind the loser is destined to win
That howl in the hell is my second wind
Adventures testing the strength of men
Spill my guts see the angst within
Gold all in my gangsta grin
Blood sweat and tears on my handkerchief
Name is written every place I’ve been
Yeah that’s me
No hooks
All lines, no hooks
Fish scale on my finger nails
Bed linen smell like entrails
Face hidden behind a thin vail
Some details I can’t entail
On the plane over here I had a Gingerale
Wore rain boots, might’ve squished a snail
Wearing slugs Reppin Miyayo
Ayoo
No hooks
Yeah, all lines no hooks
Yeah, yeah
Give her that D under natural sunlight
Bet you thought it was The Flash when I run by
Cash under my pillow hmm
Power naps, no lullaby
High as noon, and you gotta think faster than gun fights
Cause these ocean raps have your tongue tied
One verse leaves a lot of space between you and I
If you trying to bridge the gap better jump high
Higher than I is
Looking out the window on a mountain of ice
In the middle of July on the way to Alaska
Want an update, wait until after
No hooks
All lines, no hooks
Last verse
The clock tick tocks as it watches me
Rocks beneath as I walk the street
Find a comfortable bed to get off your feet
Things we endure to get on our feet
So interesting I got some sleep
Make a couple grand it’s been an awesome week
In the factory still processing
Is wearing my grills still flossing teeth
Look me up in the glossary
See my name next to anomaly
Left books at home that I long to read
But I’ll buy some more on a shopping spree
Why is the word lie in library
Does the word please sound like police
Do the manner in which I pull these bars off make me the best rightfully
One things for sure, y’all copy me
In the freezer feeling like Rocky III
Work with my hands no boxing ring
While the hands of time tick tocking 
No hooks

Rags To Riches
02:46
|
|||
|
Uh-huh, all right all right
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Greasy grimy salmon guts
Fingers slimy, halibut
Packs of mutts scavenge chunks
After ten thousand cuts as if a massacre has occurred
Alaska stickers on classic trucks
Naknek drifters’ back pockets with a flask of liquor
Bad workers wear a mask and snicker
Hard workers with cramps and blisters happy with tobacco canisters
Human resources administers ibuprofen and caffeine mixture
That is a magic elixir, take a breather man that should fix ya
Mosquito on the back of my neck who’s needles feel like catfish whiskers
Compassion for addict hipsters, still address them as ma’am or mister
When the work shirt fabric stenches donate them or trash them bitches
Hit up a planet fitness, cash my checks then I’m back in business
I call this rags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches, yeah
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Ninety nine percent can’t handle this shit
Fresh out the madness, Real quick before I go back in
Been a while hasn’t it
Howl with me what’s happenin
Let me shout out MONEY MOGLY
Shout out the youngin Wolfy
Shout out Big G and Joey
Shout out the gods and Noe
Break it down like
Where are you going
Hahahahahahahaha whooo
Probably somewhere snowing
Under the aurora borealis in my laboratory
Smile keeps my aura alluring
Wake up with a morning glory
In this Alaskan horror story there’s
Greasy grimy salmon guts
Keep in mind your stamina, don’t pinch your sciatica
Machinery sound like Metallica
Where is the plug for Cali bud
Two thirds of the day standing up
How the fuck it’s only been half a month
Catch the chum hidden in the shoal
As they drop out splashing sludge
It’s almost as if they have a grudge against families that indulge on their flesh
Sitting back with a fat bulge on their tummies mmm yummy
Some be on the floor but still fresh
There I go again exploring death
But that’s how insane the story gets
And I’m about to go more in depth
Wept as I’d squeegee the floor, sort of swept pools of fish organs
Organic as it gets
On-site mechanic with a wrench
To repair the mechanism that beheads Sockeye salmon in like half a second
Before we handle the rest of the process
Some have a gash on their sides
Could’ve been seal, grizzly bear or Loch Ness
Meanwhile writing songs in my head
Ignoring those that taunting the dead
Quick shower to wash off this mess
Another long shift at the office
Woke up and I got dressed
I call this rags to riches
Rags to richesRags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches, yeah
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Rags to riches
Ninety nine percent can’t handle this shit
Where the fuck you goin’

Rope Chain Grim Reaper
02:30
|
|||
|
Saw so much death I bought a chain, it was a keeper
A 14k rope chain Grim Reaper
Cost an arm and a leg my grips weaker
You want your hands in my pocket, dig deeper
Cause if you try to take this from me I’m a shoot you
Right in between the eyes, pew pew
You too are not as important as what I’m sportin
If that’s how you chose to live your life it will be shortened
Went too far lengths for this and refuse to forfeit
If it’s to feed your poor kids, they’ll soon be orphans
No offense, in fact it’s self-defense
Trying to resolve an issue with me, this how the beef ends
Even if we used to be friends
Makes no difference to me there’s no allegiance, only revenge
As I look down on this old piece again
The reaper is grim, you can see his gold teeth grin
On a black T-shirt with my peepers
I saw a 14k rope chain Grim Reaper
In reverse from my perspective, feet first
Death weighed on my chest yet it’s a rebirth
Till I leave earth
I’m finding out what it’s really worth
Dreamt of a rope around my neck as I dangle on a tree
Now all I see is a rope chain with Death hanging on me
Thankful to be alive, numbness in my hands and feet
Flipping salmon for weeks in Naknek back to Salmon Creek
Nothing fishy about me book my baggage weeks
Flashing teeth, Lonewolf still got a pack with me
Try to reason with the unreasonable as always tempting
The word path is in empathy but so is empty
Supposed to feel you but you’ll feel me
Will I be killed for these well we’ll see
The blind will understand my POV
Want my gold, you’ll take an L and see GOD
Is wearing Santa Muerte mala suerte
Por que ahora se siente mas caliente
The guy at the pawn shop they sent in spoke not a sentence
Exchanged my dollars for a neckless
Walking to the exit on black t-shirt
Jeepers creepers is that a
14k rope chain grim reaper
14k rope chain grim reaper
14k rope chain grim
Wish I got it cheaper

Shiny Eyes
04:32

Her shiny eyes
Hold reflections of the sky
And we’re here all the time
And we’ll stay
Her shiny eyes
Hold reflections of the sky
And we’re here all the time
And we’ll stay in the ocean, ocean
Lone survivor of sons and daughters that were eaten by predators
Couldn’t be protected too much by their father
Sometimes she still wonders about them
While she swims around in the water
But as of for now nothing has caught her
Ducking and dodging and gulping for oxygen
Maybe she’s lucky like she struck the lotto
Snuck by an otter, swim up a little farther
What is my purpose, what if I jump to the surface
The sunlight reveals that there’s something near lurkin
Thought it was a Sea urchin, Up close it’s a serpent
It’s tough to interpret so muddy and murky
Poseidon have mercy
Why have you cursed me with a life full of urgency
I’m always hurt and I’m tired and hungry I rush in a hurry
But it gave me endurance and hustle and courage
Cherish the life you live until you perish
If she’s ever bested her muscles will nourish
One day she’ll understand what is occurring
No concept of time just go against the current
Beasts with four limbs blowing bubbles submerges
Exploring her world gave her urges
To see what they are searching for, where did they come from she’s nervous
To pick up above where the birds live
Her shiny eyes
Hold reflections of the sky
And we’re here all the time
And we’ll stay
Her shiny eyes
Hold reflections of the sky
And we’re here all the time
And we’ll stay in the ocean, ocean
Sleep an iota, keep an eye open
At peace with the dangers here deep in the ocean
Seasons will change the sea has its moments
If you keep within range of the species you roll with
Power in numbers there’s millions of us
Come and get some if you really want it
Spill your insides trying to fill your stomach
I was watching her back see the killer coming
When the water is calm she build sand castles
Queen of all fish and the land mammals
Imagination is channeled till waves take it
As it washes ashore by the raft paddles
Seen dead fish with possessed spirits
That abducting the foolish that fed fearless
I guess living here death is everywhere
There she was unaware that she shed a tear
Together they swim on this trail collectively move as a singular cell
United they’re bigger than whales where each individual fish is a scale
Although I’ve been telling her story the rest are a part of a fisherman‘s tale
Cause instantly they all were caught in a net and were lifted away on the ship as it sailed
She watches with
Her shiny eyes
Hold reflections of the sky
And we’re here all the time
And we’ll stay
Her shiny eyes
Hold reflections of the sky
And we’re here all the time
And we’ll stay in the ocean, ocean
Gravity pulls her down while she pushes upstream
Felt a sudden sting from the jagged rocks
as the rapids scrape on her sides making her cut and bleed
Leaving a puddle of blood diluted to nothing
With all her might she swam up and leaped
In between the teeth of a bear and her cubs that were hungry
Narrow escape but would it have been such a terrible feet
To go find an area safe she can lay her eggs then by an eagle get carried away
She hid her offspring by a hot spring in a lake with a cave they were carefully placed
The water was clear with her clarity of how she became prepared for this day
At an inlet was a father and son on a fishing trip
Last thing on her wish list was an honorable death and she knew then this was it
Bit the bait and didn’t resist
Because the role of the salmon is preventing the planet from going through famine
She was wild and alive
So proud her demise was teaching a living thing how to survive
They looked into
Her shiny eyes
Hold reflections of the sky
And we’re here all the time
And we’ll stay
Her shiny eyes
Hold reflections of the sky
And we’re here all the time
And we’ll stay in the ocean, ocean
