The Future Is Now (The Offspring)
After Intermission comes good old pure punk, a song that is genuine The Offspring. It moves me, I feel it in my entire body. I just want to dance mosh pit style. In the Ixnay alum, it's not this song obviously, this one's from Days Go By, but it bears significance to me-ee-ee. I don't want to disappear. I want to leave my mark on the world. I want to bear meaning to people and never fade away. One thing is sure, the future IS now. I used to listen to this band in High School and think I had so much time ahead of me. I wasted so much of it being numb after the abuse and being a victim because it was convenient for me to blame all my shortcoming on the man who abused me. I'm back now and alive again more than I've ever been before. I want to live and do what had always set out to do. And I am working towards those goals.
Rollin' (Limp Bizkit)
So to achieve those goals, I just gotta roll with it sometimes, because while I don't blame anymore or feel like a victim, there are circumstances in which I find myself that sometimes hinder me, so I have to find a way to make it work and find how to get out of the stuck parts and just roll with it, unstick myself to roll out of it, and keep moving forward in life and keep rollin'. "Breathe in now breathe out", hey, it's like meditation and EFT! Keep rollin', keep creating, keep living, keep sharing, keep healing, keep hodling lol
What's the Difference (Dr. Dre)
It used to be that being different meant to be weird and wrong. As a kid I was the reject. Now, I find so many like-minded people. There are so many differences between us, yet we have so many similarities. "So what's the difference between me and you?" The fact today I notice the grammar error in that sentence hahaha (It should be "between you and me".) A good beat but one phrase resonates: "It ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumours, it's that I'm too damn big to pay attention to them." This applies to that voice in my head that wants to push down my happiness, the residue from the abuse. This applies to those who try to oppress us and suppress us, in the crypto world, in the red pilled world, the alternative world of healing and such. This applies to trolls who try to bring us down and shatter our resolve or courage to do the things they're too scared to do. What the difference between me today and me back then. Today I dare, I do, I no longer blame, I am moving towards radical action. I am moving forward, ever upwards.
One Chuba Too Many (SWTOR Soundtrack)
Another one I still need to put parody lyrics to. A Chuba is that creature that looks like a frog that Jabba eats at his palace. This is gonna be a fun one to put lyrics to. Someone ate one chuba too many, eek. Just like a Hutt, stuffed his face, or her face. Now my mind is going places again, is we decide that chuba could be something else. Forget about showing papers, let's show chubas :o These songs from the SWTOR Cantinas just make me feel good. Chilling up in the VIP section of the Republic Fleet Cantina, selling stuff on the GTN and making credits. Hey, it's like trading crypto!
Fireflies (Owl City)
I'd like to make myself believe that I can sing. I just always sing along with this song. It's not typically my style of song. But I just love it. There are many things I can make myself believe. When they are good things, like that I can heal, then I feel good and I can heal. "Everything is never as it seems." There were many things that were an illusion before, and I woke up from it. Like in the song, I'm too tired to fall asleep, I'm always awake, a lot, but then sleep at odd hours. I'd like the earth to turn slowly, like the way the beings from my story live 500 years, and time is almost slowed for their aging in the world that I created. Now the illusions on my mind are mostly on paper in the fiction that I create. There are also a few other things I'd like to believe are true, little thoughts, about myself, you know.
C'est du roots (Tryo)
Doesn't matter if you don't speak French, you don't need to to listen to men making animal sounds that are hilarious! La truie! Acoustic reggae, I love Tryo. Another song from the same album I used to listen to a lot with the guys from La Réunion. By the way La Réunion is in the middle of the Pacific, somewhere near Oceania, but belongs to France. This is defo a feel good song, just with its beat. And we do need roots, to go back to our roots. Symbolic of being grounded, rooted, and centered, I've also gone back to my true roots, beyond many ancestors and connected to my Celtic roots. I'd like to connect with my Viking ancestors too. I'm sure I can channel that rage in a more productive manner and become a berserker warrior. But I really connect with my Celtic background, hence why I'm all into divination and stuff. A reminder to be grounded and feel the natural magic of the earth that inspires me with such creativity.
Know Your Enemy (Rage Against the Machine)
Oh, this song. You gotta know Know Your Enemy. The lyrics are so significant to anyone who is Libertarian, Voluntaryist, or Anarchist. We know who our enemy is. I know who mine is. I also know that my ex abuser is my enemy, and although I've been no contact for over 10 years, he's been winning for a long time, until recently, the table turned and I am conquering! On another note "fight the war, fuck the norm" I'm not in the norm. So I have no loyalty to it. And "the land of the free, whoever told you that is your enemy." We see every day that freedom being challenged. Again, I bring up Jordan B. Peterson, a man I admired and for whom I have a great deal of respect. He does not let anyone impede on his freedom of speech. He says that rights mean responsibility, people want rights without taking responsibility, and impose control over others to respect those rights without respecting that other person's rights. THAT is NOT true freedom. This song was written by Anarchists for those who are awake enough to understand that the American Dream they speak of is but an illusion and a means to further control by the Elite. Many get angry and shout "conspiracy", but the truth will be exposed.
Not Afraid (Eminem)
My personal theme song used to be Race Against Myself by the Offspring, because I couldn't keep up with everything that was happening to me. It was happening and I had lost control over my life, my mind, my thoughts, my feelings. The scary part of life was to face it and do the hard work of healing and taking control of my life, no more victimisation, but facing my past and working hard to heal. Working hard to achieve my goals. Working hard to find happiness. Not letting life happen to be, to BE my life happening, to MAKE it happen, to be the happening myself. "And all those who look down on me, I'm tearing down their balcony." I broke out of my cage and I'm going to thrive.
Meaning of Life (The Offspring)
Straight from Ixnay on the Hombre, this song means so much to me. The lyrics are for me about breaking free of control and living my life how I want it. I was controlled, I was a man's slave, I was brain washed. And for so long after, I had trouble doing my things, turning people down, saying "no" to others, I was a people pleaser. Now, although I still struggle a bit, I do my own thing, I live my life my way. I found the meaning of MY life and I live it. I live it my way.
Take the Power Back (Rage Against the Machine)
So I live my life my way because I took the power back, took control back of my life. I'm still working on taking the power back of my life, take the power back from those who still try to control me (without mentioning any names /coughs government). Okay, I still believe some rules and laws are necessary only because of my experience with psychopaths and narcissists, but there are way too many and this is NOT freedom. I don't think everyone knows how to live within Natural Law and Morality (look it Marc Passio's work on that for full definitions) but I believe we can achieve freedom, but not with how things currently stand. But I digress, I am taking the power back, have taken a lot of power back, and I urge everyone to do the same, take the power back in your lives. Start doing things for you, empower yourselves, arm yourselves internally with knowledge, and your inner abilities (yes, I mean abilities, like divination and Jedi-like powers). "No more lies!" Seek for truth, knowledge is so powerful!
