Turn my head up to the sky And bark so they can hear Stop the lightning and the thunder And take away my fear…ah yeah Sonic crashes hurt my head They rattle in my brain What did I do to make them angry? And fill my life with pain…oh no I remember what I was taught But now I’m having second thoughts I’m not gonna show my fear But I wonder if they are near Here I am, all alone And I’m standing here Barking at the Gods Here I am, all alone And I’m standing here Barking at the Gods Do you think that I’m insane, For yelling at the sky I have reason to complain I wish that I could fly….away I remember what I was taught But now I’m having second thoughts I’m not gonna show my fear But I wonder if they are near Here I am, all alone And I’m standing here Barking at the Gods Here I am, all alone And I’m standing here Barking at the Gods

What will you do when your virtual world crumbles? Will you cry into your keyboard? Will your bills go unpaid? Will your dog still love you? What did you do when my foot hit the door? Nearly missed your face Turn off your phone and see the world Don’t live your life under control In your virtual world you see that Nothing is real Just an illusion for a fool Will the bride in your mind marry insanity? Will the groom leave the room? Go outside and see the world There’s more of life outside your home In your virtual world you see that Nothing is real Real friends will never let you down Put down your phone and see the world Don’t live your life under control In your virtual world you see that Nothing is real In your virtual world you see that Nothing is real

Gray Sky 02:51
We were born With no mercy for our fate Then we live In his eyes we’re not so great When we die Put our ashes in the ground Where we go from here There’ll be darkness all around! The sky turned gray We lost our way once again This life is driving us to our knees What we do To make this a better place Can be undone In an instant without a trace Write it down In the books of history Change the words For the convenience of you and me It's in our sight To reach the light once again Come together You know it's not too late (It’s not too late) When I go online I see The hatred and the bold hypocrisy So few are educated In this twisted Idiocracy The sky turned gray We lost our way once again This life is driving us to our knees It's in our sight To reach the light once again Come together You know it's not too late To leave behind fear and hate

A little for you, and a little for me (a little for everybody) We’re about to lose our minds (I know you know it’s true) Open your eyes and you will see (we need to wake up people) That everyone is going blind (it’s starting to unfold) I want this now I don’t care how We all have waited too long I want this now Figure it out, and push on through (don’t wait for anybody) Can you see the light in me? (shining on your past) Fighting the fire with all my might (start the revolution) Don’t worry what you will find! (it’s a transformation) I want this now I don’t care how We all have waited too long I want this now I want this now I don’t care how We all have waited too long I want this I want this I want this now

If You Leave 03:11
Here, here we are Starting life at 53 The past can’t hurt us now The future will show us how To be….Just you and me Don’t, don’t leave me now ‘Cause if you leave No, don’t tell me how You can’t believe Understand the truth And you will see The shattered shell I’d be If you leave This, this our home It’s broken in your mind But who can’t say we tried To work it out Time to scream and shout I won’t give up I won’t give up I can’t give you up Don’t, don’t leave me now ‘Cause if you leave No, don’t tell me how You can’t believe Understand the truth And you will see The shattered shell I’d be If you leave Don’t, don’t leave me now ‘Cause if you leave No, don’t tell me how You can’t believe Understand the truth And you will see The shattered shell I’d be If you leave

Information like a disease Spreads far and wide in an instant The “whirly wide web” spins out of control Ruining lives in seconds Did you hear what he did? Did you hear her lies? Oh my God, my hero died! Truth or fake news? It’s all a mystery Doesn’t make much difference in what we believe! It’s all greed It’s all lies We all need Political correction! It’s old news It’s all drama We all need Political correction You take your side and I’ll take mine And friends we’ll be no more When my opinion offends you It’s much easier to ignore! He stole a car & ran from the law Mass destruction on a high-speed chase The cops they shoot & they kill that crook The public go and act a disgrace … WTF? Criminal dies Crowds protestin’ We all need Political correction It’s all greed It’s all lies We all need Political correction! As I look down from my podium at you people I think, “You are lucky to have me as your leader!” Who needs a moral compass anyway? I lost mine years ago and it’s gotten me where I am today! It’s all greed It’s all lies We all need Political correction! It’s all greed It’s all lies We all need Political correction! Political correction! Political correction!

about

Slow Moving Planet explores human dynamics in a complex digital world. We're all connected in that sense, yet in many ways, less connected than we've ever been as a society, and a planet. Human interaction has taken on a faceless modality, while the anonymity of social media distorts our behavior toward others, and our ability to affect change in this world. It is an exciting, and sometimes confusing, time to be alive!

about

Big Murder Atlanta, Georgia

It’s fair to assume a band named Big Murder is an angry gangsta death-metal rap group, with potential legal issues. Though that last part may be partly true, the rest is much more complex. Big Murder is known for their hard-driving energy rock built with addictive riffs and melodies that are both refreshing and fun.

The band: Marcus (guitars/vox), Evan (drums) & Randy (bass/keys/vox)
