This is the entire performance of Strangers. It was performed in April of 2010 by the University of Colorado Denver's Theatre Buffs. It is a sci-fi, slam poetry musical and I feel honored to have contribute my talent to the project. I had always wanted to work with hip-hop and urban influenced music and this was my perfect opportunity.

LYRICS:

Alex:
I wash my dirty hands of the future that is planned
For my so-called friend
In the doldrums he'll remain, I can't help but keep disdain.
Enough is enough!
Maybe this is right! Life is black and white!
What's he waiting for? Do it!
Before he loses his nerve, that idiot human!
He's no friend of mine! He's a different kind.

Henry:
I trusted you! You're a sneak and I'm no fool!
You can't use me! I control my own destiny!
And this is the last time I will say goodbye to you
I just want you know you were like a brother to me
And you turned on me.

Henry & Alex:
You will never see me for who I am
That's what it feels like to be a man.
