The Transition (More of My Truths and Thoughts0

we were all born into sin but as time progressed
I became guilty of so many sins of the flesh
I guess the pain I possed needed an outlet
but would only get expressed when I became upset

raw pain and emotion led to savage rage
I behaved so far from the way I was raised
became accustomed to street life so most days
was in a drunk stupor or occasional weed haze

stickups,re-ups summer games that we played
street beefs,club fights sometimes the guns blazed
never thought I'd loose my little cousin in that way
should have read the signs , I could feel them that day

can't run from the pain so I had to face it
knew I needed a change but I wouldn't embrace it
All praises to God  I rebuke you Satan
I'm ready to stand in front of the world a changed man

but old habits are hard to break
sometimes the ghost in your past are hard to shake
they'll peck at your flesh until it starts to ache
if you can relate then you know the toll it takes

Our Nation Stands United

Our nation stands united, 
no matter what the rest of the world may do; 
United in our fight against terrorism, 
united under red white and blue. 

September 11th will never be forgotten, 
our nation will never be the same; 
We stand united regardless of race and creed, 
American is our name. 

As the greatest nation in the world, 
we turned our backs for to long; 
While nations were terrorized all around the world, 
We did nothing, and that was wrong 

But the sleeping giant was awoken, 
by the pain that our nation felt; 
When our innocent young laid dying, 
by the blows the terrorists dealt. 

So now I pray many times daily, 
for the familys left behind, 
That God will be with all their needs, 
and peace some how they may find. 

And for the terrorists who caused such pain, 
more then all the words could tell; 
I wish you eternal pain and fear, 
and may you eternally rot in HELL!
