We're setting off on the journey
to the land that's great to all.
Don't matter how you get there
as long you make the way.
The perfect place for Juggalo's
and Juggalette's a like.
The perfect place for everyone
that got faygo in there blood.
I'll tell you now it's scary
if you don't know the juggalo kind.
People from everywhere you can imagine
arriving by ways you'll find strange
Some on the tilt-a-whirl others
on the murder-go-round.
Don't fear those swinging hatches
like mad men people run
gathering all together
in a peaceful faygo rain.
So step off the train and your welcome
as the words we know and love
are played over the speaker
as the Wraith is calling us home.
We may seem a little crazy
in our hatch red with faygo in hand
but your just seeing our better place.
Board the train if you like
and stop some other place
but here in Shangri-la is where I'll leave you
it is here I do depart
for the clowns are screaming out my name
and I'm ready to start playing their game
so here I leave you
maybe I'll see you again
but my home is here
in circus Shangri-la
Author notes
Ok Shangri-la is the heaven like place for those that follow the group ICP. My ex got me into them and I really like the message they say in the Wraith record. They are people that paint their faces like clowns and they just went with it. The tilt-a-whirl and Murder-go-round are both ways your said to get to Shangri-la but why not a more comfortable job. The Wraith is there version of God. I thought it was a fun idea and the train is stopping so many places. Faygo is the soda sold by the company and they talk alot about all the Juggalo's and Juggalette's (those that follow ICP)coming together and dancing in a faygo rain.

I wish they had told me when my ticket was up so I could write my hold and tie it in with the last but I wasn't told untill Goldendawn did and that I had like 3 hours to do it and had that meeting.

I love the way you used a piece of realities twisted spectrum. The notes really help see it in a better light as well and yet it adds a dimension to this trip we are taking that keeps it steaming along.
