From Dusk Till Dawn

From dusk till dawn my heart aches for thee

Leaving me like a leafless tree

Unable to provide shelter from the rain

Leaving my heart in this unbearable pain

The leaves won’t grow because of lack of care

The branches are strong they are just bare

Without the force that the group provides

My ego just wants to run and hide

So I beg you my brothers help me feel your power

Desiring it to cover us like a rain shower

But the heart is open wanting to feel

The love from you that is so beautifully real

So bring it all, help to open our hearts

Singing it to us like a rickety old cart

That squeaks and groans with every turn of the wheel

Help us my brothers rise up and feel

Only together can we succeed on this path

By helping each other over come the ego’s wrath

Longing to be, arm in arm

With you my brothers who’s hearts do long

To reveal the creator between us you see

As we discover how to be

In equivalence of form with the light with in

Discovering only that “There is None Else Besides Him”

Walking in Israel

Walking around this beautiful land feeling so alive

I see all these people like their waiting to die

Looking into the sky with a pain filled stare

As if the sorrows they feel has truly dared

Dared to robe them of vitality and life

Cutting through them like a sharp razor knife

Leaving only the shell of a man

Who’s seeking any, pleasure he can

But only finding more despair

Leaving them with this lifeless stare

Is there any help for them, that we can find

Oh but wait, to this, society is blind

There is an option that can be found

But it takes a desire to step up and be bound

Bound to feel the happiness and joy

Like a child playing with a new toy

The joy of caring for others

Like the care a child gets from his loving mother

A joy of not worrying for their needs

 As the friends take care of that with their deeds

This type of action that we follow

Society as a whole just won’t swallow

But when we unite to care for our friends

A force is revealed that can never end

A force so powerful it will change our life

And do away with all the strife

This force you see, comes from deep with in

We all know it as “There’s None Else Besides Him”

We Hear the Words

We hear the words both day and night

Of how the ego fills us with plight

Diverts our attention to things in life

Usually surrounding them with some sort of strife

Keeping us from being together every chance we get

Instead we give in and let

The desires of this world rule if it can

Keeping us from uniting and raising man

Our efforts towards unity is all that is asked

The light once we do will fill our flask

You see the ego is showing us just what we need

So it fills our hearts with a form of greed

Directing us to things that we know we can’t use

By showing us each time we loose

Losing the desire that comes from being with the friends

This will lead us to a love that never ends

The friends are the only ones that can lift up our hearts

By doing so it gives us the best of starts

So when you know that you should be

In the lessons helping the brothers to see

That only together can we be free

My brothers we need to be

Together as one family

What Is The Price We Pay For This Life We Live

What is the price we pay for the life we live
When we are not connected why do we try to give
All the shit we consider as wealth
In three years will be knocked off the shelf
Thrown in the trash
New ones purchased only to crash
The hungry will grow
The homeless will die
And those that are comfortable won’t even sigh
What is the price for this life we live
Why is it our heart is what we won’t give
We work and toil for the life we have

Never looking for life’s other halve

Only seeing what fills our greed

Even if it’s not a need

When a fellow human falls to his grave

We go about our business and hide in out enclave

What is the price we pay for this life we live

It’s making us annihilative

What will it take for you to see

This is not how life should be

Together we can find a way

To stand up to that which makes us say

That this is life’s imperfection

Helping us avoid the true connection

A connection together which is where we begin

To discover a new life deep with in

OUR UNITED HEART 

Slumber Filled Eyes

Lying in bed with slumber filled eyes

Wondering about all the things I haven’t tried

Trying to feel a new direction to flow

Understanding that there is nothing more to know

Feeling the efforts from those around town

As these workshops take off the ground

As the people pile in never knowing why

Only that they were called inside to try

As our community at large that put these workshops on

To the people of Israel its like singing a song

One that breaks down the barriers that hold us apart

All the while opening their hearts

Bringing Israel back to being whole

As one man with one heart and one soul

The Gathering has Come and Gone

The gathering has come and gone

Holding you all in my heart is where I long

Bringing you back to the center of the group

Not an easy task it’s filled with hoops

Hoops I will jump through with love and joy

Being just like a hoy

Carrying the loads of brothers afar

Rising you all above the stars

Holding you in heart and thoughts

As we unitedly connect all the dots

Binging joy to the creator for fulfilling his plan

Drawing the light to you all to raise man

Loving you like you are my brothers

Though you are from a different mother

Still loving you like no other

As one man with one heart and soul

Unitedly fulfilling the One Goal

What Can You Say

What can you  say
When all the friends leave and you're left to pray
Seeing just how incomplete you are when the friends go away
Feeling how much to you the friends do sway
My one love will never leave
Even when the friends blow in the breeze
The connections built that we have seized 
From this moment on will never pass
Till the end of time and beyond it will last
Never faltering or dying out
And when you’re not here it makes me shout
Praying for you with no thought to me
That the light will come and help you see
Just how beautiful you are
Stringing it out like a blues guitar 
Hitting the notes that make my heart sing
Because for me you are a beautiful thing
That unity we hold  
Between us so bold
Breaking the mold
So remember my brothers one and all
We cannot allow the unity to fall
We must remind each other every day
Never allowing the unity to stray
