Come Clean 04:14
Come Clean - R. Johnson/T. Chesal Woke up this morning Everything was gone Left with less than nothing Seen it coming all along And when she comes back I will run away... If she comes back I'll turn her away... Come clean I'll wash you away from me I got what I wanted Now consider yourself free Come Clean Don't try to lie to me Tell it to you conscience While you live your misery Build up myself To want to try again Promise not to fall back To the mess that I was in And when she comes back I will run away... If she comes back I'll turn her away... Come clean I'll wash you away from me I got what I wanted Now consider yourself free Come Clean Don't try to lie to me Sell it to you conscience While you live your misery Solo Come clean I'll wash you away from me I got what I wanted Now consider yourself free Come Clean Don't try to lie to me Sell it to you conscience While you live your misery While you live your misery Lay it out and come clean Come Clean (c) 2007 Rock Johnson Music.

Beneath My Feet - R. Johnson All the colour has gone Nothing left but row on row Of matching grey Forced to let go But the mind is always reaching It's not by choice It's not my choice I waste my voice On the eternal sleeping Time can't heal my scars Are too deep to find solace In the fact that you might be Somewhere out there Have you watched me as I've grown Are you proud of the paths I've chosen Everyday wondering Completely incomplete knowing You lie, beneath my feet (c) 2007 Rock Johnson Music.

Whole 03:39
Whole - R. Johnson It's unreasonable It's not fair to deny me I sit idlely by Waiting for some change Not mystified No longer longing for you When I crave You hate my dependence I wouldn't break if you bent me Wouldn't care that you make me whole I wouldn't crack if this kills me No one could ever fill this hole In my soul It's expired this time It should take you to miss me You silence me blind Assuming you want free Not mystified No longer longing for you When I crave You hate my dependence I wouldn't break if you bent me Wouldn't care that you make me whole I wouldn't crack if this kills me No one could ever fill this hole In my soul Solo Not mystified No longer longing for you When I crave You hate my dependence I wouldn't break if you bent me Wouldn't care that you make me whole I wouldn't crack if this kills me No one could ever fill this hole In my soul I wouldn't break if you bent me Wouldn't care that you make me whole I wouldn't crack if this kills me No one could ever fill this hole In my soul (c) 2009 Rock Johnson Music.

Just Give Me Something - R. Johnson Looks like I'm staying here late Phone never rings don't wanna go home Daily compounding weight Trying to carry on life alone As if it were normal To throw it all away To ball it up inside Dropped to knees today Just give me something Some little sign Just give me something To lend me peace of mind Just give me something Some piece of blinding faith Just give me something Before it's too late for us How can you forget my face My warm embrace, that you cast away Daily compounding shame In mirror hate, misplacing blame No it's not normal To throw it all away To ball it up inside Dropped to knees today Just give me something Some little sign Just give me something To lend me peace of mind Just give me something Some piece of blinding faith Just give me something Before it's too late for us Unspoken daggers Cut through my soul Exhausted emotion The lifelessness grows How could this happen If what you feel is true How could this happen to me and you... Solo Just give me something Some little sign Just give me something To lend me peace of mind Just give me something Some piece of blinding faith Just give me something Before it's too late for us (c) 2009 Rock Johnson Music.

Better 03:36
Better - Rock Johnson Here it comes again I feel it creeping in Like a slow cold death That slithers up beside me Here to defend Each time I bend And I'll be damned to hell If I ever let it break me Nice guys finish last And I'm your cliche Walk over me Use me if make you feel better Disregard me Vanished in to mystery Lose me when you find something better Cause I'll do it better First time I lost Too hard in spots Selfish with my time & thoughts Next time I'm tossed Shaking off the rust While the third time Left me blinded by the cloud of lust Nice guys finish last And I'm your cliche Walk over me Use me if make you feel better Disregard me Vanished in to mystery Lose me when you find something better Cause I'll do it better Solo This time I won't let it drag me down This time I'm gonna keep on pushing And buy into my own immortality Anyone who steps up to prove me wrong is Gonna come crashing down with me Walk over me Use me if make you feel better Disregard me Vanished is honesty Lose me when you find something better Cause I'll do it better (c) 2009 Rock Johnson Music.

Grateful 03:50
Grateful - R. Johnson It doesn't matter what you think of me Even though you won't believe it I can see it when the mystery Falls in reach to now achieve it But mind leave me alone I choose to live simple Don't complicate my things Would you cry about the cost And of everything we've lost Or would you be grateful So grateful Grateful You can say what you want to say And not explain the meaning But with your words you hesitate A darkness intervening I know my truth defies reason And reflective words can sting Hurt instilled in a little boy Can leave a grown man struggling Mind leave me alone I choose to live simple Don't complicate my dreams Would you cloud my thought And dwell on everything we've lost Or would you be grateful So grateful Grateful Solo Would you cry about the cost And of everything you've lost Or would you be grateful So grateful Grateful Would you cloud my thought And dwell on everything you've lost Or would you be grateful So grateful Grateful © 2017 Rock Johnson Music.

Hear Me Out 05:19
Hear Me Out - R. Johnson I know at first glance I'm a little rough around the edge I know at first glance I'm not given half a chance But I just might surprise So set your fears aside Put your faith and trust in my better side So hear me out I'm the long shot But I keep on working out Hear me now I'm the home run baby That you can't quite figure out So hear me now, hear me now I'm told it's just not obvious But I'd be great If you'd just hear me out Sometimes the long way is better than an open road Sometimes the implied is better than an open book Sometimes the unexpected is the best surprise So set your fears aside Put your faith and trust in my better side So hear me out I'm the long shot But I keep on working out Hear me now I'm the home run baby That you can't quite figure out So hear me out, hear me out I'm told it's just not obvious But I'd be great If you'd just hear me out Solo So hear me out I'm the long shot But I keep on working out Hear me now I'm the home run baby That you can't quite figure out So hear me out, hear me out I'm told it's just not obvious But I'd be great If you'd just hear me out (C) 2011 Rock Johnson Music.

Change The Game - R. Johnson Make waves or decay What's it gonna be, is it them or me Make waves or fade away Nothing gloried about the downside of bothering Make waves or fall from grace Another reason just a fault you've been fathering Make waves or stay complacent Adjacent to the time you can't have back Let's get this on All on the line And we're under fire To all who aspire to change the game All on the line And we're under fire To all who aspire to change the game Strike me watch me burn You like an afterthought, branded one time forgot Fight me but your blows Returned with lesson taught, standing while your body drops Hate me begrudgingly more With every thought, I'm everything you know you're not Makes waves or stay complacent Replacements won't save you from yourself It's now ironed on All on the line And we're under fire To all who aspire to change the game All on the line And we're under fire To all who aspire to change the game Patience is running out Defiance is coming Defiance is coming out Silence is running out Liberation is calling Liberation is calling out Acceptance is running out Revolution is coming Revolution is coming out Your time is running out With victory calling Left with your wonder now How will it all play out? Suffer your blunder now How will this all play out? You're version's a sunder now How will it all play out? How will it all play out? Solo All on the line And we're under fire To all who aspire to change the game All on the line And we're under fire To all who aspire to change the game

The Breach 04:24
The Breach - Rock Johnson It starts to slow... Like clockwork comes & goes With thoughts out of control Does anybody know how deep do scars show? With every good intention I dig a shallow grave And the words don't make a difference If I don't feel what they say This temporary cancer Is why I fall behind today As I battle here with reason The future slips away... away... away...away A breach of mind invades A calm surreal In a body I can't feel In time this mind will heal And open to reveal a strength to grow on With every good intention I dig a shallow grave And the words don't make a difference If I don't feel what they say This temporary cancer Is why I fall behind today As I battle here with reason The future slips away... away... away...away A breach of mind invades Solo With every good intention I dig a shallow grave And the words don't make a difference If I don't feel what they say This temporary cancer Is why I fall behind today As I battle here with reason The future slips away... away... away...away A breach of mind invades (c) 2017 Rock Johnson Music.

about

"Dusted" is my 6th album. The album was born from the internal frustration of having too much unreleased music and it was causing me writers block. Thus the process of cleaning out my musical closet began. The core of most of these songs were recorded 8 to 13 years ago, but they never saw the light of day with a handful actually not being finished until this year! I have had many friends help me on this project and I had a great time revisiting the songs. I hope people enjoy my throwback style! - Rock
