Pray to the Lord Pray to the gods Taste of home Burrow your Han May this nourish your heart May this heal your soul Ceremony me For whom the bell tolls Sweet land bounty New world awaits Pray away your fears Embrace your fate This land is yours High and mighty Ceremony me Ceremony plenty

Heavy is the heart of my forefathers Heavy was their pain, their struggles Not able Not able Heavy is the load I carry Sins of my Father His secrets, his struggles Woman of the north Reveal your stories Dive deep into the sea Dive away from misery Land of my father, land of my mother Pour me a spell of your milky drink Somber hearts relieved Freedom soon come, This you will see And this heavy will no longer be me.

It is in the dark of night When I drive in my car Speeding down west on the 118 Then hopping onto the 5 Which then merges unto the 101, Music blaring, The moonroof gaping open, The wind ushering in that cool air, The city lights of Los Angeles in the distance, Those small unremarkable specks of ember, Coke rap in full turnt, This is when I feel most uninhibited and free. The night rank of mischief and uncertainty. Long drawn out affairs of depression, Flashbacks of cringe, rejection and abandonment, Refine themselves with goblin glee. I am imperfect, I am flawed, Too passionate, Too lost.

GODSPEED Before you say farewell Godspeed Before you say you’re well Godspeed Before you say anything Godspeed Speed is of the essence It is the core of getting things done There’s grace in speed There’s wonder in it May God be with you Godspeed.

Eternal Providence May they remember us May they bless us May they know that we cared That we dared Eternity is not promised For we are mere mortals Each carrying our burdens Not infallible, brimming in sin So let us embrace the sun Let us become one Eternal Providence.

Sacred is the Heart that lies within Pity is the feel of the man without The Lord Taketh The Lord Giveth All to his whim Sacred is the Heart that lies within That cadence, that rhythm And so it begins

Los Angeles birthed me. When I took off to college and made my way back, I remember standing on the rooftop of my dilapidated apartment across MacArthur Park looking at the crown jewel of lights that make up the small cluster of skyscrapers in Downtown. I would stare at these lights intently as the sun would draw to its end. I made a vow right then that this city was mine, that this kingdom would be had. That dream, that vision has never left me. Decades later, I still get feelings of warmth, determination and conviction when I look at those same lights. LA is a hard town. It absorbs and discards dreams for breakfast. It can be callous, it can be cold. Yet at its very best it can be exuberant, it can exhibit that raw nature of actual love. I love Los Angeles. I love my town.
