The first ballad I have online and it's definitely a power ballad. Despite the name, there are no drug references in this song whatsoever. The name came about six years ago when me and my brother were smoking a joint and I played the verse riff on guitar. He thought I should name the song Tokebluntus and the name stuck.
The lyrics are more or less about soul searching. The symbols in the thumbnail are derived from Trickster's Primal script and the therian sub-culture, which I am a part of. I thought the picture had that Led Zeppelin vibe to it.
In actuality I don't smoke pot or do drugs anymore. My body developed an allergic reaction which is probably for the best since I do sing as well. My take on drugs: I've no problem with cannibus but don't do drugs kids and if you do, stay away from the nerve pills 'cause that shit'll fuck you up. Oxycotin did kill the joker after all.
Tokebluntus
Take a moment and sink a thought in
A present time comes long forgotten
Remember when the future held in store
Ambitious men who now remind you
They're not yet born, they're here to tell you
The one goal in life to make an
Impact on the world
But in a past the dead called present
When overwhelmed by competition
A dilemma to the end
Burn out or fade away
This path its leading no further I'm trying to backtrack
Now I'm lost as to where I was going
Now I found myself here not knowing
Down along the road less travelled I'm following footsteps
Beating down the trail in this hollow
Maybe now the others can follow
There was a time when I was dreaming
All the people there were bringing
In their existance the same old craze before
As ancestors who taught themselves
That life's a gift for no one else
With this impression, expression lost to
Limits of the world
I can't remember my mind was cloudy
But as I rest I now live these memories
Continuing awaking sleeping dreaming
Tomorrow's now today
This path its leading no further I'm trying to backtrack
Now I'm lost as to where I was going
Now I found myself here not knowing
Down along the road less travelled I'm following footsteps
Beating down the trail in this hollow
Maybe now the others can follow
