Albion 03:30
As far as I see There’s one place I call home Whatever made me Put this land in my bones Blessed be my memory Wandering this special place Yeah it mean that much to me In my heart it shall remain Oh Yeah I’ve been waiting To get to Albion So long waiting To get to my kingdom Sunshine on summer days Freezing snow on winter nights Time passed the seasons change From the dark back into light Such still serenity Balancing between it all And everything in side a me Balances in Albion Oh Yeah I’ve been waiting To get to Albion So long waiting To get to my kingdom I’ve been waiting I’ve been waiting

I’m sick of commercial people So stuck up and so judgmental Take your judgements off of me You’re upset cos you’re not free I’m sick of commercial people They are led by something evil They consume without a care Gentrify my everywhere I’m so sick of this judgement I don’t deserve it Why should I have to become A slave a puppet No way I shall not conform I have no master The earth is not only yours You are a cancer
3.
Steam 03:31
Yeah what you talking No matter what you say Behind my back or to my face You won’t make me angry You won’t make me mean Cos I know how to let off steam Yeah you’re just yapping Cos you’re with your mates All alone you ain’t got what it takes no You need an education Of your machine You need to learn how to let off steam Yeah I know how to let off steam
4.
Anarchist rock n’ roller That’s who I am Tree hugging hippy stoner It’s peace and love man I don’t rate your authority You ain’t got none on me And since I ain’t harmed none I will do as I please Cos that’s my right I don’t need to live your way Activist soldier Fighting for the truth Ain’t nobody told ya Evil’s gonna lose yeah I do what the fuck I want And I don’t hurt a thing And if your karma’s clean You can also begin Cos that’s my right I don’t need to live your way Hard rock and meditation That’s what I’m in Rock N’ Roll is going pagan And it ain’t no sin Pay respect to the mother earth It’s the right thing to do And if you don’t help clean up Then I will tell you to Cos that’s my right I don’t need to live your way And that’s my right I don’t need to live your way And that’s my right I don’t need to live your way And that’s my right I don’t need to live your way

High 04:25
These illusions that walk in my mind Without permission try to take my time They’ll scream Show me some pictures They’ll scream And then they whisper My emotions they come over me Can’t control them can’t get rid of this I’ll breathe I’ll take a seat now Can’t sleep because I can’t calm down I wanna high all of the time These lows get in the way of my life I wanna high all of the time Maybe that’s what heaven’s like The drugs I’ve taken only take us for a while I wanna stay there all the time I try to chase it the more I look the more it hides Come back to me come back inside In the moments when I’m focusing Are the moments they got everything I’m free I do not suffer I’m me there is no other I can be there I can be with me I can feel it it’s reality Don’t leave always stay with me Don’t leave because I’m happy I’m happy I’m happy High I’m high yeah high I’m high yoho I wanna high all of the time These lows get in the way of my life I wanna high all of the time These lows get in the way of my life The drugs I’ve taken only take us for a while I wanna be there all the time I try to chase it the more I look the more it hides Come back to me come back inside
6.
Well now that we’re here and we’re all settled in There’s something I really must say There’s so much potential in what we have done We are truly a mystical race You know we stand before obstacles On the path for us to ascend The challenge is not the problems we’ll face But on how we behave in the end We need peaceful strong men who are gentle We need women whose hearts are of love And we can pray in different temples We can accept all of us Oh this we must try for we cannot deny That in our hearts we all want to be friends Or do we keep fighting for all that there is Until nothing is left in the end May our lives be humble and righteous May our children go on to be great May we balance with natures’ own cycles May we shine our light in this new age May our hearts stay kind and open May our conscience be clear and run free May love on the earth be awoken May our light dawn a time of true peace
7.
Don’t be afraid or accept confusion The fear is fake it is illusion I wanna break from this repression I feel hate and aggression Don’t let it cage our existence That’s ours to make and ours to witness Fear is a place with no forgiveness So my rage is my resistance Don’t get me wrong That poison hurt us Wrath is not on my side It is a drug That does curse us We cannot see what’s right I want more love I want more purpose My anger’s made my heart blind Those truly strong Are ones that serve us Ones that shine a light
8.
Awareness 03:23
There’s no awareness in the transfer of energy When you give someone a vibe you pass it on So why would you choose something dark and something nasty Don’t let evil speak or whisper from your tongue I don’t appreciate how rude you are to judge me I don’t exist for you to pack your bad vibes on Don’t you think that you can leave your hatred on me The universe does not forgive of what you’ve done I criticise this domination mentality I don’t accept the competition going on So frustrated by this egotistic madness I can’t understand what’s the reason there is none

Regret 04:04
I feel upset I feel ashamed and used In the past I looked into And yet it’s like I wanted to What’s this punishment I choose I know it’s painful But I keep walking through that door I know it’s unstable But I keep coming back for more Cos I’ve been hurting Looking through the memories now And I got working On how to change the past somehow I was shaken by my thoughts when they came out C’mon man why don’t you Smash their heads right into the ground Be a man and show them To never ever put me down You all you don’t understand What it is that you done to me You all you don’t understand What it is that you done to me You all you all you don’t comprehend What it is that you left on me You all you all you don’t comprehend What it is that you left on me It’s in my head it’s just a fantasy It’s all just a dream that I’ve played out Do not regret these things are meant to be Don’t look back be here be here now
11.
There’s a message in the mountains Underneath the sky There’s treasure in the desert Beyond what’s yours and mine The whispers in the forest Still your busy mind This journey is a teacher Of this precious life yeah The voices in the valley None of mankind Nature has a language Nature has a style We can work with her Or we can fall behind She wants us to come with her We are her child yeah
12.
I get the blues from the fake news Where’s the fucking truth Gimme something real No shit gimme proof All these folks wanna ask me Vote for my political party No fuck you No fuck you Fuck you motherfucker Yeah I’m pissed cos they talk shit Both sides left and right See you both in the mosh pit Fuck your political identity And fuck tribalism You’re my fucking enemy My fucking enemy Fuck you motherfucker Fuck you Yeah fuck them both I say fuck you I say fuck them both I say fuck the right I say fuck the left I say watch them fight And we take what’s left Fuck

about

Cam’s 2nd album "Crooked Hill" is not just a collection of 12 heavy blues-rock songs. The album is a rallying cry of hope for how we can do better. It explores our lost connection with nature, our ways of how we deal with one another and our demons, and how that can lift us up or break us down.

The heavy, ferocious sound fits well in a time where people are looking to finally release all that pent-up energy. And Cam is just the right man for the job.
