it's tough to be cautious when there's nothing inside if all i do fails thanks for being in my life i can only imagine what this will one day mean appreciation, being present, engaged with our dreams

i am scared when i don't cry if i care to live or die see the world progress in kind and my friends succeed at life there is value in bone, nutrients for our soil home help the world to grow and grow, digress from civilized pride a realization in the stars, halley's comet will be ours end the world with no requests no deathbeds, deliverance for icecaps, for the streams, for the trees, and for the bees for the ceremony celebrating how green life can be

i don't know what it is but it needs to stop because the people that don't have they deserve just what the people that have because the world was not created for all of us to have the same thing it was created for us to work together and make a difference

there's a place you can go with your friends it's off the beaten path so you better listen twenty miles out and a hundred yards in just look up at the sky it's time to begin we've been coming here for centuries keep it clean keep it neat and it's a dream it's hard to say what we'd do without a place to clear our minds and remember what life's about i don't want to live in a city no more if space is the place then all i wanna do is explore these trees are so much older than me if we listen closely i bet they have some sweet stories

life's blood 03:57
holding hands in the rain, reading books in the park on a sunny day there are no words to explain what a moment means these are some of my favorite things like saying yes to everything because it's best to be trusting late night conversations, strangers on the couch hold the door open for new friends, try and help everybody out the world is such a beautiful place maybe we can be more like that these are some of my favorite things (like road trips) these are some of my favorite things (like learning from new people) these are some of my favorite things (like playing music with my friends) these are some of my favorite things (like singing songs that make me smile)

i think it's important to be passionate and not back down from fighting for what we want and need in our lives if we don't, people with power will try to tell our stories for us and treat us like a market to tell us what we need what we need is to fight for collective liberation because we will never be free unless the people we share community with are also free

about

assembled in fragments over the course of three years, here i'll be forever is a message of comradeship and solidarity to tender (and angry) humans worldwide: we can exist and thrive apart from our toxic dominant culture. we can develop and nurture communities founded on empathy, accountability, and abolition. in our everyday actions we can practice the foundation for something truly transformative, a place that is for everyone who is willing to work together to make a meaningful difference.

i want to dedicate this album to richard vega, who passed away in november of 2k15. growing up he taught me that this epoch is not constructed for us. in that illision we have the opportunity to write our own futures, create networks of mutualism, and in doing so construct our own paradigms. this album is for everyone we've lost.

thank you to my friends for supporting me and encouraging me to make + share this album. thank you to my mom for being the most generous and selfless person i've ever met. thank you to the silent barn for forcing me to question every fiber of my being. thank you to ak press, the all ages movement project, amy goodman, angela davis, audre lorde, augusto boal, bell hooks, ben morea, death by audio, dreamhaus, ghost ship, irving teibel, junior high, malik rahim, lucy parsons, nelson mandela, paolo freire, pehrspace, people of rojava, rhinoceropolis, semiotext(e), shark tank, shea stadium, wendy carlos, the zapatista army of national liberation, and those i'm not even familiar with for your sacrifice and inspiration.
