Recorded in Luton and Pinner, UK

lyrics

All is one
All hears one
Learn to separate the fear from being alone
The being of self is freedom that we all seek
But we cling to our groups and the fears we speak
All we fall into what they call life's little spin of sin
The good the bad the ugly within
We started with space then this rat race
With stacked estates to stare death in the face
Three times death's been at my doorstep
But faith turned to me and said you're not ready yet
Wisdom it's not always how much you learn but the roads you endure and the corners that you turn
Comfort it's not just the setting you're in
But the truth you exhale through that shit eating grin
Are you ready to begin?

This suburban sway is a strong hand to play
Keep your eye on the prize and your head in the game
This suburban escape was once raw and not tame
But metropolis spreads with a sprawling disdain
So a garden city is a 2.4 aim for a salary man
With a blue collar name
Till the garden is sold with the property game
Prompting questions that sound like 'aint that shame'
Properties rise and world shrinks in size
Another stack backs into natures confides
Bright scenic dismissed for comforts bliss
Go forth you monkeys these trees wont be missed
