by Darius Sadighi

I.I’ve witnessed the jazz cat king blow his horn
Convulsing with the entire cacophonous roar
Blowing until he sweats blood

IV.Faster, prodigy, propel yourself
Contact your soul’s stark, raving madness
Allow the black and white ivory to carry you

I.I’ve witnessed the jazz cat king blow his horn
Convulsing with the entire cacophonous roar
Blowing until he sweats blood

V.Your insanity is appreciated, worshiped
Let us feel your insurrection with every blue note
Breathe life immortally into the new day

IV.Faster, prodigy, propel yourself
Contact your soul’s stark, raving madness
Allow the black and white ivory to carry you

I.I’ve witnessed the jazz cat king blow his horn
Convulsing with the entire cacophonous roar
Blowing until he sweats blood

V.Your insanity is appreciated, worshiped
Let us feel your insurrection with every blue note
Breathe life immortally into the new day
