The Seeker
Chorus:
I am a seeker
A poor sinful creature
There is no weaker than I am
I am a seeker
You are a teacher
You are a reacher
So reach down
Wont you reach out and lead me
Guide me and keep me
In the shelter of your care each day
cause I am a seeker
You are a keeper
You are the leader
Wont you show me the way
I am a vessel thats empty and useless
I am a bad seed that fell by the way
I am a loser that wants to be a winner
And you are my last hope
Dont turn me away
Chorus:
I am a seeker
A poor sinful creature
There is no weaker than I am
I am a seeker
You are a teacher
You are a reacher
So reach down
Wont you reach out and lead me
Guide me and keep me, lord
In the shelter of your care each day
cause I am a seeker
You are a keeper
You are the leader
Wont you show me the way
Oh, I know you are a mountain
From which there flows a fountain
So let its water wash my sins away
cause I am a seeker
You are a keeper
You are the leader
Wont you show me the way

The Seeker
How many times
will a seeker
return to the
same well,
seeking water?
Finding none.
one
two
three
several
But when
transparent
the seeker
will no
longer seek
there.

Runnin For The Red Light
Madder than a mad man and bored to the core.
Minute hand crawling cant taxe it any more.
Futures up the highway, ya gotta get away.
Gonna take a little trip and find a tijuana stray.
Got the time to take it.
Got the balls to break it.
Gotta car that itll make it.
South of the border, dont drink the water.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Crazy from the heat and runnin for the red light.
Oh senorita.
Have two tequila.
Heat seeker.
Lord, the will is getting weaker.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Burnin from the fever and runnin for the red light.
She aint a teacher.
She aint a preacher.
Just so close to holy.
That your runnin just to reach her.
Time bomb is tickin, my heads about to bust.
Need your personal attention or I swear Im gonna rust.
Find a little place.
No one will tell you what to do.
Tell her Im a rebel.
She says yea without a clue.
Just need some understanding.
A girl who aint demanding.
Who aint afraid to fake it.
Leave ya breathless.
Shes one of a kind.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Crazy from the heat and runnin for the red light.
Oh senorita.
Have three tequila.
Love seeker.
Lord, the will is getting weaker.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Burnin from the fever and runnin for the red light.
She aint a teacher.
She aint a preacher.
Just so close to holy.
That your runnin just to reach her.
A girl who aint demanding.
A little bad behavior.
Shes gonna be mv saviour.
My knees are shakin.
My back is breakin.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Crazy from the heat and runnin for the red light.
Oh senorita.
Have two tequila.
Heat seeker.
Lord, the will is getting weaker.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Burnin from the fever and runnin for the red light.
She aint a teacher.
She aint a preacher.
Just so close to holy.
That your runnin just to reach her.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Crazy from the heat and runnin for the red light.
Oh senorita.
Have some tequila.
Need sneakers.
Lord, the will is getting weaker.
Gonna have a good time tonight.
Burnin from the fever and runnin for the red light.
Just heard the bell.
That got me outta hell.
Got a girl.
I gotta life...

Birth of the Warrior
Respect. Sought, yet it is not found, so it cannot be given.
Control. Sought, yet it is not found, so it cannot be obtained.
Power. Sought, yet it is not found, so it cannot be obtained.
Love. Sought, yet it is not found, so it cannot be given.
Joy. Sought, yet it is not found, so it cannot be obtained.
Peace. Sought, yet it is not found, so it cannot be obtained.
Sought from the source external.
Robbing another, and in turn robbing the seeker.
Another protects theirs, as the seeker protects his.
In the quest, it is given away to another, with nothing returned,
The seeker loses themselves.
To put another before self, is to find one self.
Yet, the seeker must protect what is theirs.
Though it must be shared, as it is found for this purpose.
It is that, which is shared, that can never be stolen.
It is the gift.
Not to be given, as one who gives, expects it back.
The gift that is given to one, cannot be shared by many.
The gift must be protected.
For those starving from within, will get a taste,
Not realizing that they have their own.
They just have yet to harness it.
The power lies within.
Yet, within lies, it lies.
It is when the seeker respects themselves, they can respect others, and can share respect.
When they can control themselves, others respect will respect them.
They then find their inner empowerment, and now need power from no other.
The battles you endured, you are courageous.
The demons you have battled, you are fearless.
After many defeats, you rose and became victorious.
The seeker is not a victim,
The seeker is a champion.
They have conquered the battle from within.
Many battles lie ahead, they can reflect on the battles past.
Now, the warrior inside is born.
Fight on!

English Dream
I once had a dream
A feeling inside
A yearning so bad you have to shout it out
Hey kid look at me
You can make it real
You can get it if you want
When I first started out
They shut all the doors
But I laughed at all the doors
And I kicked them down
Heres my energy for you
Step into the light while you still feel young
I look in your eyes
And I reach for your hands
Well Ill do anything
To make you understand
That Im still the seeker
For your english dream
Dont you give up trying
And dont you let me down
The english dream - dont let me down
The english dream - dont let me down
The english dream - dont let me down
The english dream - dont let me down
I look in your eyes
And I reach for your hands
Well Ill do anything
To help you understand
That Im still the seeker
For your english dream
Dont you
Dont you give up trying
And dont you let me down
The english dream - dont let me down
The english dream - dont let me down

A Man of Words
To some a seeker, to others a fool.
A rich man, a winner,
a poor man, a king.
A writer, a scholar,
a criminal, a cop.
To all whose boundaries like somewhere,
a fool you are not.
A centurion of words,
a seeker of truth,
and the word man writes what he sees.
Fools prey upon the conscience of others.
Rich see to rule and conquer,
while the poor beg their way through.
Criminals steal their goals,
but a writer writes his dreams away.
Puritans seek to purify,
criminals seek to steal.
Rich men seek to be richer,
Poor men seek to survive.
Writers seek to homage,
only stories to unfold.

You're looking for you
We're looking in at other
And we don't know what to do

Lead Me, Guide Me
(words & music by doris akers)
Lead me oh lord, wont you lead me
I am tired and I need thy strength and power
To guide me over my darkest hour
For just open my eyes that I may see
Lead me oh lord, wont you lead me
Lead me, guide me along the way
For if you lead me I cannot stray
Or just open my eyes that I may see
Lead me oh lord, wont you lead me
I am lost if you take your hand from me
I am blind without try light to see
Lord just always let me thy servant be
Lead me oh lord, wont you lead me
Lead me, guide me along the way
For if you lead me I cannot stray
Lord just open my eyes that I may see
Lead me oh lord, wont you lead me

I Have Always Been... Human!
i have been a fool,
a thief, and a liar.
i have been selfish,
i have been callous.
i have been ignorant,
i have been a prisoner.
i have been an addict,
i have been a loser.
i have been wrong,
i have been angry.
i have been a taker,
i have been a demon.
i have been a hero,
i have been a man.
i have been a husband,
i have been a father.
i have been a seeker,
i have been a worker.
i have been a believer,
i have been a leader.
i have been a giver,
i have been spirit...
i have been a warrior,
i have been forgiven!
and i have always been...

Pleasure Seeker
Pleasure seeker
Hunting to get 'lucky'
Hoping to pluck someone without scruples.
Hoping to get laid,
With less of a game to be played.
And those moralistic ones,
Are the best to tease.
Easy to capture,
With temptations to please.
Pleasure seeker desires one of these.
To squeeze a butt while screwing up juices.
Or to leave one sucking,
Discreetly!
After a satisfying time,
Delivered from one's knees.
Or...
Better left gratified,
Under sheets naked...
Entwined in sweat,
Left by a slow building heat....
That comes after calls for wanting more,
Have cooled.

Fair But So Uncool
Charles stepney & rick giles
Glory seeker, fortune hound, dont you ever,
Break it on down.
Aint you been to school
Aint you learned the rules
Aint you paid them dues
The life you need is fair, fair but so uncool
Rip off artis, shootin down.
If you dig it, youre a clown-
Cant you understand
Cant you lend a hand
Cant you be a man
Greedy joker, slidin by, dealin jones-ses with a high
Doncha see its wrong
Doncha wait too long
Doncha hear this song
Time is passin, time is gone
Meet your mirror, further on
Wont you ever yearn
Ever yearn to learn
Wont ya take ya turn
The life you lead is fair, fair
But so uncool (repeat out)

Him
Fire burns,
In his heart.
He seeks only death,
And blood.
I seek death,
And I also,
Kill.
He thinks himself,
Strong and handsome.
He thinks himself,
Brave and smart.
He thinks himself,
Tall and fierce.
He thinks himself,
Killer and fighter.
I think of him,
Weak and hidious.
I think of him,
Frightened and dumb.
I think of him,
Short and cowardly.
I think of him,
Helpless and food.
I am stronger,
Braver,
Smarter,
Taller,
Fiecer,
And blood seeker.
He is nothing,
But lies.
I am nothing,
But a blood seeker,
And killer.

Dream Seeker
She's a dream seeker,
a peace-keeper
and all she wants to be
is a quiet sleeper.
But restlessness
is a constant now
'cause wakefulness
presents its bow.
Says 'How do you do
you remember me?
I've been here before
when dreams
abandoned thee.'
She says 'Go on. Get away.
I need my dreams
to make it through the day.'
She won't give up.
She closes her eyes tight
and at 4: 00 in the morning
gives way to the night.

Seeker of truth
Seeking truth
I'm the seeker of truth
I'm interested to know
What is truth and where it is
Though I know nothing about truth
Though everything is truth
And truth is everywhere.
I know only love is truth
And truth is love and
It is with all animate
And inanimate.
I have no other interest
I have no other motive
But to love
But to seek truth
I'm the seeker of truth
And truth is love
And love is truth.

I Wont Cry
Where to begin to end uncertainty
Do I leave silently or boldly say farewell
How can I think of times that used to be
And find the smile I need to wish you well
But I wont cry for dusty memories
No I wont cry for dreams that couldnt be
No I wont cry
The daffodils the sorry candlelight
To buy my heart when loveless words were spoken
Too many tears to welcome in the night
Too many promises the days have broken
So I wont cry for kisses out of reach
No I wont cry Ill practice what I preach
And I wont cry
No flowers now no silly candle games
Somehow my feet wont lead me to the doorway
And so I stand and wonder whos to blame
Waiting for one last word that calls to beg me stay
But I wont cry if that world never comes
No I wont cry for now the storys done
And I wont crygoodbye

Mr. politician please dont deceive us.
Mr. politician youre there to relieve us.
Just how can we tell, mister,
When to believe in you.
Oh wont you tell me oh who were lookin out for?
Mr. politician could be perfect but people its doubtful.
We want a leader wholl fight for the people.
We want somebody to take us to the steeple.
Wed like to point him out to you people,
But dont look now.

We want him honest, not deceitful.
