The Times To Learn
Music & Lyrics By: Nathaniel Hockman

In this life we know, we think we know.
You cannot even see it in our past because the books are not even right.
I just wish I knew more about the moon.
But that’s just me,
I’d like to see you learn.
The same just for me,
Everyone should want to learn,
Everyone should want to learn.

Running around in circles and you think you’re going to win,
Everlasting race of conversation fighting from within.
Absolutely getting nowhere, maybe too many cups of joe,
Trying to resolve but they won’t give you the go.
It’s all about I know this, I know that,
We know a lot of things proven by fact.
Our problem is our sources and we don’t even want to listen,
We arm our mental forces, how about we take the time to listen.
Take the time to listen,
Take the time to listen.

In this life we know, we think we know.
You cannot even see it in our past because the books are not even right.
I just wish I knew more about the stars.
But that’s just me,
I’d like to see you learn.
The same just for me,
Everyone should want to learn,
Everyone should want to learn.

I find nothing fun about a great debate,
Nothing great about your know it all trait,
I knew how this would end before you tried to set me strait.
There’s thinking and talking, arguing and not speaking,
You have to choose one of these things,
While feeling one of these things,
You say this, I say that,
Sometimes we say the same things that are not proven by fact.
When we don’t even want to listen,
We are not even close to wanting to learn,
Your arguments have been listed,
Just take the time to learn.
Just take those times to learn,
Just take those times to learn.

A long series of recordings started in 1997 as I began to figure out how to make music and recordings on my own. The discography will take some time to upload. My archive is under construction....always.
