John Coltrane

John William Coltrane (also known as "Trane"; September 23, 1926 – July 17, 1967) was an American jazz saxophonist and composer. Working in the bebop and hard bop idioms early in his career, Coltrane helped pioneer the use of modes in jazz and later was at the forefront of free jazz. He organized at least fifty recording sessions as a leader during his recording career, and appeared as a sideman on many other albums, notably with trumpeter Miles Davis and pianist Thelonious Monk. more »

Our father thy will be done.

I have denied this life its worth
I will not be the victim.
Sickness to you my master
Here's to getting worse
Hope it kills you faster.

Show me how it hurts to rot from the inside out.
This vigil burns until the day our fires overtake you.
Our father we forsake you.

Blessed be his name
Nothing now the same.

Ask me why I hate
Why I've prayed to see the nation that I loved disintegrate
And gladly give my life
That revolution regenerates.

In honor of the strife of those who've died
In generations before your blood stained glory
I reject you
I deny you
I defy you to continue.

I defy you to continue.

In honor of the strife of those who've died
In generations before your blood stained glory
I reject you
I deny you
I defy you to continue.

Smite the shepherd and the sheep will be scattered
