IfGod so loved the worldthat shecame to us in song;to set the singer free
have weprostituted andraped her beyond recognission,in ourvery acts of worshipingat thedisco sanctuaries of songand dance
Walk me down the dark alleynarked with mental graffitidripping downveins of psychedelicconfettibleeding on a bastard hymnal
ofillegitimate dreams to revive and relivetheromance and the music of the song for it's own sake
Walk me through the ParadiseWhere i needno longer analogize
theelysium in the Pandemoniumrife with every pedestrian achewhenevery other strain, Is a sewer, polluted andfake

SingVocation Part 1
Freedom in SongFlood my heart with musicTwist my mind with rhymeFan my fire light my wickKeep me out of line
Let the burden of my songTouch anothers heartJustify my oxygenWhen I sing it out
Forgive me my frustration
When I fail to singYou made me a musicianThese songs are all I bring
Music is a lonely roadThat I choose to take
Not for applause or rewardBut for the musics sake
When the pimps of pop cultureSpread monopoly
Ill be headed for the doorAnd sing with dignity
Give me more than daily bread
Give me songs to singKeep them playing in my head
Always lingering
Let my music stay aliveWhen Im dead and gone
Eternity will have a voiceWhen she tarries on
Let the muse stay aroundWhen the song is doneInspiration may be foundWhen the music carries on
Should I paint a masterpieceI hope Ill never know
Pray my work will never ceaseThere is room for more

SingVocation Part 2 Learning to Fly
(Learning to fly on the wings of song,to that great gig in the sky)
I call no one teacherand i guess it showsin the haphazard waymy music flows
Clergy want to buy her fireFor 30 pieces of hell
Mercenary stakes on herattireBut i'm not gonna sell
The kingdom of freedom islike a song
That walked on mortal mindsAnd even though it all goes
wrongThe song still unbinds
I lift up my voice unto theskiesWhere do my songs comefrom?It should come as no surprise
The beating of an unhearddrum(Learning to fly high

SingVocation Part 3Cross Blessing
I ran away from the melody
When I saw her crucifiedRobed in sheer divinityNaked with nothing to hide
I saw them copyright her cryptWith tight securitySlaved her at the free marketMade her a commodity
Born of a virgin intellectIlliterate but awareinappropriately perfect
You know it when shes there
She fulfilled the song beyond doubtLyrical extraordinaire
On the charts she has cloutFor all (of us) who will hear
Oh listen to the song that sings withinThe silence of your stillness
Even with every rule a brokenYou dont lose the poetic license
Knock yourself out on inspirationInhale the spiritual soul
Be born again with infatuationLet your first love take you home
Remember the songs that now embarrass youAnd you want to forget her tune
Selective amnesia is like a boomerang(and) Youre back where you began
Imagine now a guitar soloImagine where it would goI would not have to sing these linesLiberated confines
Take this song and make her yoursMarry your lips to her voiceLet the song be a metaphor
Take you to the other sideEmbrace the yeasty epicenterLike she were a bride
Kiss her goodnight and stay awakeTake notes as you watch her doffHeaven breaks loose as you partakeAnd let the music blow you off

SingVocation Part 4 - The Bard
Prepare ye the way of the bard
Be an extreme version of yourself
With every quirky paradox
Well rounded won't cut anything
Don't talk normal if you wanna sing
The drama of true worship
Is to be truly oneself
You don't need no guilt trip
You don't have to fit a shelf
I may not move mountains
I am but a bard
I juggle life and hymnsWith fingers burnt and charred
Though i sing my loudest
I may not reach your ears
What matters is i did my bestDespite my doubts and fears
Obsessions on overdrive
Trickling down my veins
My heart might need an extra valveTo beat these soul terrains
Should i meet the song-giver
Demanding another tuneWould it satiate my hunger?
Lusting for the moon
Songs are just a metaphor
For the salvation withinI'm honored to co-author
The life Ive been given

Plastic to palstic - Sarcastic fantastic
I'm unenthusiastic - Of living unauthentic
Join me with your version
Celebrate the passion
of your own calling
of all that you are beingIt's not competition
It's not even ambition
Vocational who-you-are
Occupational all-you-are
Step out of the trite and shallow
Parochial point of view
The eye that watches over the sparrow
Is probably looking for you
Time has her signature
To date our songs and culture
Cemented in forever
Eternally now or never
Called to live, in Spirit and Truth... Called to bare Spiritual fruit
Your calling is all you know of it ... Eternity set in your heart

SingVocation part 5 Lip ServiceShe saw him lying nakedA song without a verseShe felt inspiredSet her lips to his chorus
She felt the song come to life
Cradled in her breathShe felt it grow as it was sungWith every flick of her tongue
The rhyming got chaotic
In a slapdash messExplosively exoticRainbow'tic finesse
All good things must come to an endThe best afterglow forever
Music bubbled and overflowedThe song became her lover
She gathered her self together
Kissed him goodbyeThought it was all over
A little high and dry
He grabbed her before she could leave
And peeled away her fearsKissed her, caressed her and made her
heaveClimaxing between the ears
Penetrated mind Hurt but felt divineSong n-singer intertwinedEach to its own, by design

SingVocation part 6 New Song in a New WorldNew Song in a New World
Ohhhhhhh aaaaaaaaaaah The song is alive
Ohhhhhhh aaaaaaaaaaah The song has arrivedOhhhhhhh aaaaaaaaaaah... Another song is in the offing
Ohhhhhhh aaaaaaaaaaah... The songs are multiplying
When we know all the answers
And the universe makes sense
Healed of all our cancersRun out of suspense
When Commonsense supply n demand
In commerce might comprehend
An intrinsic value
In the art of all we do
When irony meets her master
And cleans up the slate
Satire turns sincere
Mockery, affectionate
Poet and purist
Slit the wrist of a pragmatic fist
Around the watch of time
In handcuffs sublime
Our heroes have left us
To think for ourselves
Forgetting our favored songs
So new ones can surface
The entrepreneurial spiritMust sift through delusional shit
Think Inc. technique
Fantastic beyond formulaic
When Natural laws of science
Beats the waif defianceTo a home in another world
Where freedom hung unfurled
And music has no pain

SingVocation part 7 My Song My Way!My Song My Way!I will sing (again)
For song not for gain
I will sing of how it wasBefore the great loss of loss
In blasphemous devotion
'n dissenting patriotism
Like erotic verseis not about sex but worse
Contortions and distortions
And erroneous interpretations
Composing a virgin's wombIn scripted I assume to the
tomb
Nipples pierced with wisdom
Sepulcher minds open
Heartbreaks sweeter thankisses
Paves the way for freedom
Free-speech no longer preached
Or practiced in silenceFreedom in prison
Beats vision out of rhythm
Questions aren'trhetoricbut
celebratoryAnd answers aren't trite or
right in contrary
Infectious inspirational
Intercourse without protection
May hopefully be the currencyBy which we buy and steal
There s something wrong about this song
Experts of the law and profitssay
If any of 'em a better one
I ve already had my way
Beyond time's signatureIn an overture to the future
Our stained glass psyche
Sing freely and artsyly out ofkey
The Begining!

SingVocation is the story of a song thatbelonged to the pedestrian minds she haunted.Used, abused and loved, the song changed theworld. Wherever she was sung it was Eden!
Sequenced on FL Studio Demo version.Vocals recorded in a small studio that uses pirated software,they reluctantly made me an exception to use Audacity .2.6Singvocationby Arul (Ta'fxkz) Baliah is licensed under a Creative Commons

Proud to announcec Zero Piracy in creatingthis body of work
Musicians are oftencaricatured and
lumped withentertainers, and Ipoorly beg to differ.
Beyond the auralamusement; music
just might be a life
force to some, who areprobably so
delusional that theyneed to pursue aninner noise thathelps them makenonsense of a worldthat otherwise makes
so much sense.
