Bows And Arrows
If Harold had spied with his little eye
the arrow flying his way
at the Battle of Hastings in 1066
the English may have won the day
but the French bastard William the Norman
prevailed and won the upper hand
to conquer the last Anglo-Saxon king
of this green and pleasant land
when King Henry V led his army of archers from Wales
at

Conquer the Wind
Where am I going in such a rush?
to a pit in the ground
full of dust and maggots
Why is my fury so quickly aroused?

In A Box
You put me in a box—
'Cause that’s what makes you comfortable.
You put me in a box—
'Cause that’s what makes you strong.
You put me in a box
And tell me
That’s where I belong.
You put me in a box
To keep me
Contained.
Controlled.
You put me in a box
To strip away my soul.
You put me in a box
And seal it up

Her Victory Song
Please don’t hate me
Don’t debate me
And you damn sure
won’t underrate me
Cause I’m here now
Gonna show you how
I can rise above
What you dish out
You call my name
Play that blame game
But I don’t hear you
Cause nuthins now the same
You showed your true face
Left me in disgrace
But I rise above
Your endless chase
I know I hurt bad
I’ve been so

FULFILL AND CONQUER GRADUATION SONG
Through the academic years
The feeling of uncertain and fear
Here I am on graduation day being my personal preserver
The studies were hard and long
I wondered is higher learning where I belong
There were numerous exams
Research papers imaginable
I got through it all
The lectures were focused on concise being pure concepts
It was “MIND OVER MATTER” that become concrete

No more divide and conquer
ideal of opulence in the flesh called human
harboring a false sense of control and power
listening to voices you claim as your own
cynical laughter with mouths that spew arrogance
no regards for the blood shed to advance hierarchies
tyrannical systems smitten to hinder harm control
disparaging games with malice of life's spectrum
keeping most in a survivor unconsciousness
barrier resources disguise

There are women who ignite the desire to conquer and enjoy their beauty
There are women who ignite the desire to conquer and enjoy their beauty,
But she envelops you with a mystery that urges you to slowly lose yourself under her deep gaze,
Her eyes are whirlpools that draw you into an abyss where time stops like a forgotten dream,
It is not a mere call of the senses, but

VOICES
Wake up!
The voices in my head keep screaming
Open your eyes
The voices keeps echoing
Always waking me up
Whenever life hits me down
From the mountain top
Down to the depths of the valley.
Look up!
The voices keeps yelling like I'm in the well
You miss a lot of blessings, when looking down
Look up!!
So you can climb

Endurance
Ahead a trail that stretches with his finish line unseen,
at the start he ponders what this one will mean,
this obstacle will be like no other he thought,
an obstacle different than everything he's fought,
cool crisp morning air fills his lung,
pistol raises, the starting chime has rung,
months of discipline has lead him here,
even the thought of loss

Divide and Conquer
We are living in times of great unrest.
Which will put our metal to the test.
Whether left or right, right or wrong.
Why can't we dance to the same song?
Society seems to have lost its vision.
With so much hate and much division.
Democracy now down on its knees.
Politian's full of so much greed.
With governments that create confusion.
A manifesto

The Dawn of a New Era
A new dawn breaks, with promise bright,
For girls educated, to claim their rights.
They'll rise and shine, with purpose clear,
To shape the world, and conquer fear.
The dawn of a new era, a glorious sight,
Where girls will flourish, in knowledge and light.
Their voices were heard, their talents known,
A future brighter, than we've ever known.

These wars teach us nothing, not even how to conquer our fears
These wars teach us nothing, not even how to conquer our fears.
We are still cave people.
Democratic cave people, perhaps, but that brings little comfort.
Our struggle is to emerge from the cave.
If we made the slightest effort in that direction, we would inspire the whole world.
We are lost souls in stone labyrinths, shadows dancing on the
