War and Life

When will the war end

not the war on terror

but the war against life

everyday i wake up and go outside

its like stepping onto a battle field

just had me the gun society already

brainwashed me

are we living or is big brother controlling

us television tells us what to think how to

act what to wear what to eat whats

beautiful .... when do we say i want

or i think or i feel

young girls making babies at 13 and 14

cities being washed away

little chile crumbled beneathe the feet of

its people

is this not a war

lets just close our eyes and invision the most

beautiful place in the world acres of green grass

seas where you can see the bottom not the bodies

that have been discarted like animals like once upon

a time they didnt have a life

just leave thee stress behind and get rid of the

weight on your shoulders go tell everyone to come

along lets leave behind the war everyone has a place

in THUGZ MANSION ! ;)
