"Dream" Written by Antonio Rosario Performed by Orikal Uno 2012 I had a dream that we were kickin' it the other day Talkin' bout life, and the fight to live another way an upgrade, from the headaches caused by the strugglin' you told me every human being has something they struggle with ...it's all relative, consider you a relative bloodline or not, never thought that it was relevant We were by a lake, underneath the sunshine Listenin' to Sublime, talkin' bout that one time We had many, and they've never erased Within the old film projector of my memory banks The clouds were floatin' by, the time paused jokin' bout your downfalls, makin' fun of my flaws We all got em... nobody's perfect We're all rodeo clowns in this short circuit circus I had a dream that we were kickin it the other day But if I saw you now, don't even know what I would say... like, how've you been? what have you learned? you haven't left this earth as far as i'm concerned how've you been? what have you learned? you haven't left this earth as far as i'm concerned I had a dream that we were kickin' it the other day Talkin' bout life, and the fight to live another way I told you that I wanna quit chasin' my dreams you told me that success, really ain't what it seems we had our ups and downs, it didn't really matter I came to the conclusion we all end on different chapters We were by a lake, underneath the sunshine Listenin' to Sublime, talkin' bout that one time We had many, and they've never erased Within the old film projector of my memory banks The squirrels were runnin' by, birds chirpin' flyin' high discussions about life... and what it's like to die Perfect weather in a setting that stood still Just chillin' with my friend, in a time that I could still I had a dream that we were kickin it the other day But if I saw you now, don't even know what I would say... like, how've you been? what have you learned? you haven't left this earth as far as i'm concerned how've you been? what have you learned? you haven't left this earth as far as i'm concerned

"Lonesome Road" Written by Antonio Rosario Performed by Orikal Uno (VERSE ONE) I wondered what it would be like if I were to jump up and grab the mic If I were to capture the crowd and make it a magical type of night with a life rapidly changin' on site hopin' that everything is alright hopin' that everything is okay with the way that I stay livin' my life but i'll never be gettin' it right smokin' and drinkin, I sit and write provokin' the feelins I keep inside no hope for the rest that I need, when I can't sleep at night peekin' up outta my window, i'm watchin' the sun creep outta the skies deep in heavenly memories, all the time that passed me by never forgiven but gotta keep livin it's been like that since the very beginnin' committed to betterin' life that i'm dealin' with grinnin', is how I try to conceal it wakin' up, open my eyes, to a world that's filled with demons and lies pushin' the button down on my bic, the smoke is keepin' me high wonderin' what it would be like if I were to jump up and grab the mic makin' my syllables travel without a battle, rappin' tight Don't really got nothin' to lose steady grindin', payin' my dues thinkin' of somethin' of relevance that I could I say to you (CHORUS) The time goes slow All I got is myself on this lonesome road and I don't know where to go slowly losin' hope on this lonesome road... (VERSE TWO) I wondered what it would be like to have a happier type of life instead I sit and I fight with myself about what I could've done right So i'm pourin' another one, hopin' the sun will come out, to get rid of the troublesome clouds, cuz the storm is thunderin' loud as I walk this route Another injection of insulin sinkin' into my skin has me fucked up My body's a skeleton, weights disappearin, i'm tryin' to get my luck up Always had it rough, never had enough Growin' up, didn't see my Dad that much All I had was my passion for my raps artistic type of vandal stuff I wondered what it would be like To have a little bit of money security, it's funny cuz there's no such thing as too secure And i'm rappin' like there's no such thing as too sincere Solo on this lonesome road, I'm bout to fuckin' lose it here I've pondered life, and shed the truest tears So when I die, to proove i'm here, i leave my music as a souvenier the way the wind blows is so wholesome goin' it alone on this road that's so lonesome

"Owl" Written by Antonio Rosario Performed by Orikal Uno 2012 (VERSE ONE) Night owl, existin' strictly in the right now Iced out, Minnesotan ink is used to write down Whatever's on my mind, rhymes formulate and birth creation chillin' in the cut of where my cadence and my words get placed in post madrugada, underneath the stars and moon yea I love my hometown but I wanna travel farther soon ...So I stay up late and write cuz I can't seem to sleep And I won't fuckin' stop until i'm seeing where I need to be An alien without my mothership that's on some other skills The dopest lyricist you ever heard that's undiscovered still Ill, I creep amongst the shadows and the vandals livin life daily like i'm tackling an anvil ...I find solace in the breeze of the A M In a cobra clutch, but I'm too stubborn to say when Inner city streets, release my soul on gritty beats journey under street lights, dim and flickering... (CHORUS) Night owl with my eyes wide open Ride around town, through the night i'm absorbin' Night owl with my eyes wide open My life is like the skyline that never stops glowin'... (VERSE TWO) Concious when I shouldn't be, but buzzed and wide awake reverse the pendulum, the spectrum flips until my night is day Night owl that's on the prowl, I spread my wings and fly away Leave my essence on a wall and let the morning dry the paint Silent trainquility, Perfectin' my abilities Within the sweet serenity of when the average person sleeps Walk eternally thru city streets nocturnally express my self with aerosol or on stage fitting words to beats when it's done, I embrace the breeze of early morning gazing at the stars falling, start stalling, watch them soaring yea, a night child goin' wild when I do ...Construct my soul, under the glow and the light of the moon As the sun sets, I watch it go down As the darkness starts emerging, up above the whole town Inner city streets, release my soul on gritty beats Underneath these street lights, I glide within the imagry (CHORUS) (VERSE THREE) (8 bar break) Day turns to night, within the night is where I stay Stay up under light and write and sleep thru-out the day Day turns to night, within the night is where I stay Stay up under light and write and sleep thru-out the day I'm a night owl amongst the stars, a deep purple sky makin' sense of life within the dark, dreary night As the night gives birth to a brand new day I give life when I write or with a can of paint
