MINDFUL MUSIC STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART
Welcome! Welcome!
To the Diversion
Prepare to be immersed in
A universe where you can be an alternative version
Of your highest of self or lowest of low
Either way folks,
Hope you enjoy the show!
Host: Hello good evening, Mr. VaRIOTy such a pleasure to have you, and your stunning guest…occasion?
V: Tonight seemed quite right for a celebration.
Host: oh, and what are we celebrating tonight sir?
V: Life
Host: Ah yes very well, please right this way…watch your step madam..
Hit the restaurant for five star dining
Park my car, but valet was free of charge
Open the door for Dora, she rocks boots
Fedora On my head, with matching suit
Look like Bonnie and Big, gimme the loot
Nothing too dangerous, keeping our kool
Laid back in a black booth across from boo
Who would have guessed that it was you so soon
Waiter comes though, let’s begin with fondue
Along with a bottle and glass half full
Feel a little giggly like an April fool
(Fool)
As we navigate this bougie menu
Kudos to chef and phenomenal crew
For putting together an experience for two
Spirits on fire as our love becomes a funeral pyre
Come on baby
You know I could open doors with my mind
No longer blind, can see with my third eye
Got the vision don’t even need a stone
Philosophizing about filet mignon
Butterfly cut with a side of foie gras
Bless the sky, the cook, the cow and farmer
May this feast bring peace like Dalai Lama
I could go on, but ran out of commas
Yet did not run out of room for dessert
Do I want the cheesecake or her, not sure?
Excuse me Walter, please make this to-go
You see I want to enjoy it at home
Muchas Gracias Y la cuenta por favor
Waiter: “Here you are sir.”
VaRIOTy: Keep the change, come on babe let’s go.
I’m ready let’s do it right now right here
Everybody be cool this is a Diversion
Any of you fucking pricks move…
My words are like bullets coming at you full speed… I don’t need a gun.
Run Run
Go Go
Yeah Yeah
Running in a spiral avoiding viral
It was vital that I swoop the title
Kind of like the time when I was a child
Putting pieces together like i’m laying tile
Claim many memories of victories
Same way cheeseheads do with Lombardi’s
Share my big fish story; no sardines
Speak my truth as I please
Thanks dude for understanding
Right beneath me
because I’m right on top
Unlike these elves out here pushing pop
I can hear the snap and crackle in their auto-tuned bots
Got to watch out as these cons are deceptive
No longer in disguise; therefore it’s no surprise
There is no end to their lies
Shit, I once heard David Lynch has a painting made of flies eyes
Same guy who will make you think you died twice
When I was three I had a crush on posh spice
O.K! It was “baby”
Now that’s a random personal fact
Let’s get back to the track
Hop on the soul train
Time to Rock Jazz like Cobain X Coltrain
Mix my screwdriver with plain old school Tang
Out in the Wild and I start to feel unscathed; untamed
But y’all already knew that first one
First album dropped back in 2020, son!
There’s something about investing your whole soul and heart into a passion hole that can drive you to madness slow
You’ve got to go fast; quickly
Hail fire speed if you want to achieve your dreams
Act swiftly, it can become reality before you turn Six-ty
Come on feet, come on use those knees
High in the air, versatile with agility
I am the anomaly using my high-speed double-teaming ability
Overlapped lighting McCrash
Surpassed Flash; Sonic dead last
I left the future in the past
Full on; no mercy like when titans clash
You didn’t call my bluff
Now i’m about to cash-in
I could do like you and blow my fortune on fashion
I ain’t no fascist, so I donate to the kids in need
Yes, indeed, for my beliefs I will bleed
Like the martyrs who had faith in their creed
Just as the folks in Boston who spilled the tea
You’re in too deep, no room to beg or plea
Make no mistake, it’s time to walk the plank
Make a move and you will feel the shank
Pull a Houdini and plan for a Great Escape
Hope you can hold your David Blaine
I am the lane, so stay off of my highway and exit onto el calle
Podrias vivir, para morir another day
You awoken the gray dragon’s lair
Fantastic flying beast with fire-breathing air,
So, I suggest you best hightail it out of here!
…And on… and on…to the Heavenly Gates…
Hey I’ve been before, no no really i’ve been here before
Uh look
Act I:
I believe that I’ve seen this scene before
Cruising US-101 Freeway North
Of course in my dream; Lucid singing
Travel as I please from Spain to Beijing
I can hear tolls bells ringing my name
Necromancer I met said it was fate
To find what I loved; it lured me like bait
I took it and swam like fish in a lake
Desire to make tall trees dance & shake
Below a full moon where the passion stays
Walk under the stars & feel lunar rays
Keep steady pace in my everyday
Embrace the dif-fer-ent definitely
World is material, so mold as clay
Next thing I find myself in the foyer
Sneak into the kitchen; Ratatouille
Perfectamente slay souffle flambe
This is that fire that they can’t take a-way
Act II:
Act two In a cozy space by the bay
Filled with tranquil-li-ty this is the place
I say, it’s sure quite holy and sacred
Like the meaning of life; IT’S WHAT YOU MAKE IT!
Took the stairs down to a cobweb basement
Dawn’s light shining in, glimpses of heaven
Hey yo! Am I allowed to come on in?
Indeed, I lived my life around much sin
Promise, done my best not to get drawn in
If this is my end then let me begin
Act III:
This started when I was stunned at the shin
Opened my eyes to a menacing grin
Ringmaster was blind, I was the li-on
Leaping out quick like an amphibian
Across a circus in oblivion
Traveled along the prime meridian
From city to citizen, just made sense
A fifth of green glow absinthe with Vincent
In the slow van goes wherever he likes
Through the surreal desert or starry night
Let nature’s road be your infinite guide
May it lead to the genuinely kind
Live life like a ride on a side-wind-er
Slithering viper burns 12 cyl-in-ders
Leave behind cinders; smoldering embers
Enter a series-of-secret chambers
Slide-so-sly swinging-my-silver-saber
Feel the night shine salsa with a stranger
Dream as you please, yo just don't wake the neighbors
Don’t wake the neighbors
Don’t wake them
This is my M.O
My Modus Operandi
My body’s internal code
Broken down to binary,
Wake up early to get the day started; RIGHT!
That’s why I set my alarm five hours before bed
Ensure that i’m tucked in real TIGHT!
Ultimate zen when you have a clear head
Staying focused and keeping my mind on track
Ain’t as easy as it seems
You can choose to see the light or turn your world to black
I am the gray in between like galaxies inseams
Gained wisdom in financial responsibility
No chains, its fine I shine because my bills are paid on time
Played my cards right by building credibility
Saving mine to purchase real estate in its’ prime
Like in the evening when I enjoy the chimes on the balcony
Take in a deep breathe while living in the moment
Tonight it just so happens to be a full moon-rising
Except this time i’m viewing the planet from an outer orbit
Too far out, connection got distorted
This is how first found solitude out of the blue
Completely contorted in a zero gravity portrait
Communicating with my music like close encounters of a third dude
It’s true I create hot fondue; create what I want
Got to give it up one time for my day job
Helps keep me afloat, until I depart from the dock
Stay grinding until my career takes off like the husk on a cobb
From dusk ‘til dawn through the heat of Ramsey’s kitchen
Lord willing, we’re going to make it happen even if we have do it ourselves
Shit, but if all else fails, I’m a go only by death or spitting
For now we got the vision here is what it entails
Uplifting each other, being there for your fellow sister and brother
Fulfilling filial piety, respect to the those who inspired today's reality
I know we’ll cross tundras where it feels impossible mother
Trust me staying headstrong through the reckoning will break us out of this jeopardy
I keep answering the toughest questions
Luckily, learned my lessons from the seasons when they change
Grateful for my soulmate, she’s a blessing
Rearranged my outlook on the grave
Still alive and kicking with a pulse
Living my life with control, some call it “Doing the most”
I boast that all my accomplishments are deserving of a toast
With my closest companions, a crew of loose cannons with no holst-er
Maintained and bolstered through all the drama
Dealt with more than I care to share
You ever had to have papa calm down mama?
Ever had to endure a split in the pair?
Ever felt like the cards you’ve been dealt aren’t what you expected?
This is for those neglected going through the struggle
Here is my story of how a muggle connected
Think of your hustle as a muscle, don't ever rest it.
Oh hey, almost didn’t see ya there
And you know I wasn’t going to write to this one
I mean i’m very very busy with the planned diversion,
While you’ve been listening, ahem
Anyways, here’s a tune to vibe to
Shit, alright i’ll give it a shot
Hey! Hey! Lucky day! Put your hands up
It’s the funky extravaganza
Hands on your partners hips, shake, and duck
Slither like a snake through the sahara
Swing like George across Tujunga
In this jungle we fend off hunger
Kool down, lunge, and take a plunge, yeah
I was in the pool like G Costanza
No Seinfeld, but you get the deal
Now get down like an earthquake drill
Head Spinning skills with a license to ill
Air flares, wall flips, and windmills
Parachute pants, and beanies with short bills
Back to afros, corduroys, and platform heels
Disco finger when you drop to kneel
I was told to dance just how you feel
Ecstatic, enigmatic, and eager to express
Automatic acrobatics adhere with no practice
You are galactic; woven time fabric
Massive as atlantic; rocking titanic
Swaying like hammock, ‘til you go manic
Get lost as atlantis find your own palace
Hear! Here’s my chalice to hopeful romantics
All around the planet electric sliding fanatics
Boogie woogie woogie
Woogie woogie woogie
Alright, where was I…
Where we go we may never know
You can follow the guidance of a compass rose
North to the star in o-si-to or stay in the unknown and do-si-do
Float on the falsetto of Placido
Knocking down dominoes through domingo
Dancing with pink elephants and flamingos
Space ghost coast to coast in an el camino
Say “hello” to my poquito amigo; Al pacino
Pass on cappuccino, i’m on hydrogen fuel
Use the sun as a tool
Dial it in as I dive down a whirlpool of shark fins
Whole sea of clown fish, It’s a circus circus
Cyborg time-travelers searching for their circuits purpose
Lies buried deep underneath the Earth’s surface
While the truth gives fire to the furnace
Watch the world undress, she’s classy like burlesque
Every breath, every step is graceful like an arabesque
The ultimate contortionist, mid-twist aerialist
Leave you speechless and tongue-tied with a lisp
Bright rainbow lights shift inside the tunnel confines
Shines cut through your eye like un chien andalou
It’s a thunderous time as we glyde on the Wondrous Mystery R-i-i-i-de
I’m the orbiter, they call me the orbiter and I go ‘round ‘round ‘round
The curved path of life strikes twice
From when you first open your eyes to your last slice of pie
While you’re alive make sure it’s a flavor you like
Divine key lime or some chocolate delight
Stay rocking through space and time
Passed by E.T. And I waved “Hi”
He gave me the finger, so I didn’t linger
Went to the opera and saw a blue alien singer
In a nebula where if it were any greener
It would probably die
That’s Eiffel 65 on da-boo-dee da-boo-die
Where they dance all night to One More Time
Feel the funk blast like punk daft
Have you hoppy as space dust on draft
Crafter my own class of UFO’s
Turned the sands of Egypt into a glass boat
Or shall I say ship, sail beyond the ozone
Maintain my vessel with my crew of clones
Fending off mindless drones and those attached to their phones
I suppose, they are one in the same
Anyway, we made it back to our home planet safe
Finally everything in it’s right place
This must be how success tastes…
…Shit, hip-hop you saved our lives we are eternally grateful
Good Morning! Today’s forecast calls for red skies
Riding my bike along the sunrise and sunsets
On a quest in search of a treasure chest
Destiny to manifest as I head from East to West
I was told it was good enough if I tried my best
Testing my limits by challenging parliaments
Taking breathes as I inhale nature’s scents
Pedaling past landmarks and monuments
Conquering a monolith no matter the size or width
I keep pushing even when I want to quit
Expressing feelings can be tough to admit
Like being the missing piece without the right fit
Luckily, learned to mold into my existence
There’s a time and place to share your gift; it’s not a coincidence
Trust me, i’m known as a dissident
Just another resident in the neighborhood
Speaking with confidence; bullies call me Hollywood
Striding through the woods like a free spirit
Chaos in the world, but here you can’t hear it
Transcendental lyrics that transmute the energy
Elementally raise the vibe from A to Z
Escalating positivity until there’s harmony
Peacefully seeing all these things assembling
Doing me without regard of what others think
Leggo the BIG EGO and go see a shrink
On the brink the of swim or sink
Where the only sight is fight or flight
Ghost ride the tide
To Keep the groove in the heart; it’s quite a delight
Never lose focus because the past was dark, but my future is bright
Despite being born a minute before midnight
Now i’m outspoken when I used to be shy
Standing for what’s right, unlike a person passively passing by
Just like she did to the Pharcyde
Now the stars are aligned as we glyde down a new path
Used to slither like a rubber snake through the fake grass
That didn’t last long that’s the same old song and dance
This direction was written; this wasn’t by chance
Seeing the big picture all the way from a glance
Contemplate as I headstand on top of an avalanche
Having peace of mind can make your psyche unmatched
Like a jousting knight with an amethyst lance
Get into a rhythm when i’m back on the track
I’m the algorithm that beats within your cardiac
As I become one with where i’m at
On this journey and giv-en no map
Explored forestation and sailed overlapped oceans
Navigated by constellations off of a notion
Guided by sheer hope and devotion
Since the world don’t move to just one motion
Everyone has their own drum that they march to
Leave their mark like a permanent tattoo
We all live to be remembered; let the memoirs accrue
Au Revoir Red Sky here comes the moon
Looking huge like a white hot air balloon
I’ll see you soon before the break of dawn
When the morning dew glistens on the lawn
These were the golden jewels all along
So, i’m giving thanks to life everytime you that play this song
...Thankful for another day…
Yeah yeah, anyone else tired of this backwards ass society?
Yeah me too. Let’s do something about it.
Everyone is scratching for a lottery ticket
Bystanders of the economy as inequality thickens
A.I. has folks posted outside with signs and they picket
Trying to be heard, but the rich only hear crickets
They’re robbing the hood doing what’s good for their own business
The top one percent of crooks could throw a matchbook at forgiveness
We bring up issues and they’re quick to dismiss it
Delay, delay tactics love to keep us at a standstill
Hey! Hey! They play with tax brackets and ill will
Generational wealth supplied by pharmaceutical pills
Forreal! Don’t forget their only deal is to save their own ass-ets
Probably have a lakehouse out in Massachusetts
With a heli-pad to park their G6 jets
At the horse races bribing and placing bets
Raising inbred idiots, who posted bail in two minutes
Criminals walking free thanks to their daddy
Had they been a minority they’d lock ya up and toss the key into the sea
Please believe they got us to think we’re all living equally
However, i’m not convinced and you shouldn’t be either
Never have I ever been so certain
As I pull the lever to reveal what hides on the other-side of the curtain
Unveiled a perpetrating man protected by little secret service men
Phone lines getting tapped like a string between two-cans
Politicians squawk like a mating call from a toucan!
It’s payday, and Tio Sam demands more than a 100 Grand
Don’t know, don’t care how he gets it, and that's the message in his moves
No clothes on, but he’s got a new groove
Luxury approved over providing people food
Living life like his soul has been removed
Next will be his head if some things don’t change soon
Wrath of citizens can be like a monsoon
An all out duel like two cowboys at high noon
Ten paces then turn over a new leaf
To realize that courage lies inside my resiliency
The powers that be would crumble if we embraced our community
Instead of stereotypes, prejudice, and being nitpicky
It’s Time to look past glutinous greed if we want to succeed
Take a hold of the reins and lead, enough following
We are born kings and queens of our families
Carpe Diem, so seize the day where we reign again
Raise self-sufficient, independent, and bold children
Who can make their own decisions without being coerced about what lies in the end
There was supposed to be a separation of church and state
That dissipated away when they tried to “Make America Great”
Hearkening back to so-called simpler days
Proves to us that they’re still stuck in their prehistoric ways
Utilizing fossil fuels and adding to irreversible waste
Don’t worry, it’s not too late we can bring back seasonal change
House the homeless at affordable rates
Help them to think outside of the crates
Push forward with a purpose to correct past mistakes
Hit the gas when lawmakers pump the brakes
We can shift this world like tectonic plates and cause some quakes
A movement for the people by the people who leveled the game.
…Do it for justice, not for fame…
I stepped out…
Today I woke up and stepped out of my body
Looked back down and smiled very proudly
Hovering above; feeling really godly
Start this trip like I’m riding on the trolley
Spread my wings and fly until next morning
Some think I’m dreaming, but I’m california soarin’
It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a brand new story
Live for the glory, staying conscious of momento mori
In an alternate mode; rethinking what I know
As I astral travel from home to Borneo
Some see me and witness a luminescent glow
It’s a RIOT, it’s a show, in the eye of a tornado
Boldly go to the Earth’s edge
Take a step back from ledge my friend
I wish you would take a deep breathe in
Allow this universe to begin
Chorus x1
This is how it goes with Astral projection
Living out my skin
See if I make it back in
Traveled by spirit and fulfilled my desires
Unraveled the yarn to see what inspires
Humanity; a spark ignites the fire
Inside; you see our heart beats like a choir
Pure harmony that lifts our souls higher
Went so high up I forgot where I started
As the bumper sticker stated, “Not all who wander are lost”
Just like those that walk the walk don’t always know what lies at the top
You have to balance the cost
Reevaluate the value of shock
At heavens’ door knob you hear a knock knock
Trying not to get caught picking the padlock
Rumor has it this gateway pod
Can bring me back to my body
I will be full of glee, if I make it back in one piece
Recess is back in session, no question I take it seriously
Further into the further furiously
Beyond the red door where you can no longer see
Hyperventilating feeling like you can’t breathe
Surrounded by a plethora of entities
No way home, until I realized the key was inside of me
My internal light beamed like a beacon
It was time to take flight before next sizzling season
Locate my location using my own rhyme and reason
There I was still a sleeping as I leaped back in
This is how it goes
with astral projection
Living out my skin
This is how it goes
with astral projection
Living out my skin
I'm a different dimension
I’m in a different dimension
I’m in a different dimension
Oh and did I mention?
We’re in a different dimension
We’re in a different dimension
Oh
Thank you thank you far too kind
Hope you’ve enjoyed diverting your attention from the pressures of life
After all, my committed crime was a case of stealing time
But I’m optimistic that you won’t mind, so I’ll leave you all with a good night
To my girl, my Mom, my dad, and all my stepmoms I love y’all baby
LoEstate I see ya GG
To my producer and cuzzo Jig in the basement spinning them records, make sure you spin this one baby, all right
Last, but not least let’s not forget the most talented man in the world on the guitar
Ladies and gentlemen Mr.Mykel Montes
Play on playa
And to all my fans out there I just want to thank you for supporting me and this diversion album
And all the other albums to come out in my career I thank you, I love you, peace.
