Spanish American War Ii

I am American sir, just as much as you,

where did all your people come from?

I hold these vows, just as close, I say that much is true,

America is my only home, but if you only knew.

So when did all your family come, I bet their immigrants too,

you wash away my hopes, with evil, blood and tears.

you give me faithless dreams and hopes, I carry out through the years,

you give me life that's written down,

 but all I can figure is yet to frown,

and for years you make us look like clowns,

flying like birds and never too ground,

did you know you wear the  privileged crown.

I felt my heart beat still,

escaping the darkness, a sliding hill.

so at the bottom I find my fate.

filled with relentless horror,  perils and hate.

for I have no key to freedoms gate.

For here is my story, an eight year old,

hiding in America, the so-called illegal in the dark and cold.

Founding Fathers

This is when we celebrate,

This is when we came,

a day for which we will never forget,

the day we hath taken our name,

The essence is  for your light of day,

but yours is in the nights in which you pray,

for i remember the smell, of the glorious day,

where you use to beg me,but only to say,

"goodbye", but not yet you will die,

i remember the tears that made me sye,

thus, we shed the hate that cloud the skies,

for you have taken mine,

an so you dance and drink of this bloodlike wine,

as you thirst for this beloved curse,

the truth i speak is but in this verse,

so fear,

so close, but so dear,

through the followers that claim these  righteous years,

an your fame in my dead history, is all you hear,

for a victory so sweet  is as tart as a lime,

for the foundation will crack like the most  ancient of time,

an all that last,of the shadow that was cast,

must die,

to bring light to the sky,

as the prisoner of the branded, again she must fly.

Stranger

None would admit the love I have and taste for blood like this,

so I swear I told you, but only this time, this love I have, I wished.

world is a broken,

my breathe be a stroken

only at the flesh on the bones I be poken,

a gentle little sigh,

as the blasphemous  die.

The shoe he carried was not but hers, I prayed that only she lie.

a somber song,

the dreaded gong,

the days be rainy like this, be long

for my fair lady, of perfections phase, that only a prince shall kiss for days,

I do believe I forget my ways, I wish o wish she beg me to stay.

I known for some times It would end like this,

for this fairytale ends but with a twist.

for the lie I told is not for me.

I share with you a secret that never should be.

He touched my hand and now I see.

For the man next to me would drop to his knee.

to fall to dead, as fruit from a tree.

For the darkness of his heart has passed to me.

No Silver Linings

So when i play this beautiful music,

you shatter your eyes at me,

an when i talk and speak so clearly,

you whisper when the angels don't see,

so my spirits of jade and hopes are so true,

you ask them, oh what could he be,

when i sing so beatiful just like a bird,

you glare and stare at the trees,

oh when i touch you when we pray together ,

you turn your back on to me,

oh when it is, our children do play,

you give them but only till three,

do you worship and praise this place in glory, or is he just real to me,

I always thought that I was the wrong,

but lately my eyes can see.

The American Dream

Just old me,

all that I could take,

only they can see,

roughen and hangin,

my blood is on my knee,

a prayin to my lord,

a singin like a bee,

a prayer for my lady,

i won't be comin home,

a kiss the children for me ,,

tellem daddys gone,

i won't be comin home,
 
I feel my broken bones,

a hangin in the darkness,

tellem daddys gone.

won't be comin home,

the American dream I know.

Tellem daddys gone.

I love you pudding pop,

kisses to the misses,

for all the work I've done,

tellem daddys gone.

Essence Diablo I

You live a fairytale,

you live a folklore,

you live a dream,

behind a door,

you take what is not yours,

what others have built,

we claim to be reasonable,

in the secret of guilt,

I have seen my future , it is gone, as is dead,

I looked at the carnage was painted in red,

my heart it is blackened by all I do,

I new I lived a lie, because all of us do,

we set a stage, if you only new,

what he has shown me will come true,

sometimes I think and it makes me all so blue,

from a boy to a man, the temptation had grew,

the truth will come,

only for a few,

be very careful in what you do,

imperfection is a medium,

I set a sail,

as the winds blowback this unearthly veil.

Time will tell,

it comes with a price and a rotten smell.

we have chosen the path to bring hell to earth,

I know it will come as certain as birth,

even if you beg you will not see for it is only one gift that he has given to me.

Spanish Sunset

Just I,

maybe a little  different ,but really not shy,

biography  I imagined of an ordinary guy,

not scary,

drop by,

same old story from the same old friend,

ever thought of what it would be like ,ah, 

to look like me,

not able to speak ,

not able to see,

I like apple trees and the buzzing of a bee

wish you was me,

ah,

it could never be,

come to my world and then you see,

duckin and a dodgin,

the dream that would never be,

the false hope you are teachin, is given to me,

as American as an gumdrop tree,

you just don't see ,

but really what is the difference between you and me.

The Last Testimony

Befallen the house of the father,

for this courage it was my light,

oh taketh my hand and lead me, through darkness and be it my sight,

forgive us for the things we do as man, is truly a terrible fright,

for let us not forget my lord, the difference between wrong and right,

as days be the dark,

and wrong be the right,

oh carry me lord through the darkest of nights,

for the blood was shed to cleanse my lies,

and spread the  plague into the skies,
 
I know for time will come,

for the essense of hell will be the truth for some,

as will we fall from the lord so far,

and shine in hell like the burning of stars,

for you judge us the same,

I know as men we are too blame,

so send me to world in which I came,

for we are not fit to carry your name,

I do believe,

as hell has conceived,

and return this world in which we retrieved,

from you.

The Promise of Freedom

The quest never fulfilled,

The road not taken,

For all forgiven, is but a mystery forsaken,

who all believes in gum drop trees,

in summers sweetens,

in fall comes the leaves,

for a twinkle in the eye,

the catcher in the rye,

a fields so beauty ,

I cannot deny,

wishing to fly,

we lived but a lie,

the truth be told they led us to dye,

glory of the masters,

who made world disasters,

a broken promise of men,

full of death and sin,

for in the end we cannot win,

a dream told by men,

is but a lie that lingers like a stinch in the wind.

Last Song of the Preacher Man

Cold gentle nights,
as owls wings flutter of these same ole lights,
I'm a sayin ,"you my good friend",
for the same ole empty faces, doin the same ole sin.

Cursed you, do these things to me,
for my body is a dangling from beyond the tree,
is it only in you i see,
just the same ole friendly me.

Why it is you hate me boss,
I know that all things are taken with a cost,
remember the nights the gentle frost,
when i spoke of the blessings when all was lost.

But the same ole empty faces, doin the same ole sin,
i knew you was just like um, but still my friend,
a letter to you, still my good friend!!!
