Still Standing and Inhaling

The characteristics of mankind has not changed from generation to generation
And we're all still the children of He who ordained creation
As there's nothing new under the sun and we need to comprehend
That basically we are all the same under the skin

We all have a good side as well as a bad
We all have some traits that we wish we didn't have
From Adam to Aaron from Ruth to Rehab
We're all alike be it indifferent, happy or sad
Yet God has a way of letting us know this one fact
He will often times make us aware of our bad acts
And when we fall down then we're more able to see
That maybe it's time to readjust our personalities

I've always felt that grey hair was a silent testimony
Of experiencing life's journey as we move towards maturity
And by gaining wisdom and knowledge as we travel along
Now better equipped to discern right from wrong
As the resurrection power that came through Jesus the Christ
Allowing us to rise above the dead things in life

Still standing and inhaling because of Jesus' sacrifice
Still standing and inhaling in the midst of pain, agony and strife
Still standing and inhaling knowing that we've sustained
The Spirit of God that inside of us remains
Now a little older, a little wiser with no room for bitterness
Inhaling the word of God so that we can now be blessed

Still standing and inhaling waiting for Jesus to return
Still standing and inhaling living by the scriptures that we've learned
Now realizing that the adversary has always been around
Now understanding that in this world evil can always be found

Still standing and inhaling witnessing for the Lord Jesus the Christ
Still standing and inhaling with the Great Commission as our purpose in life
Still standing and inhaling the glorious word of the almighty God
Still standing and inhaling with love in our hearts

Like U Mean It

Daddy once said, "There is nothing new under the sun.
It's not  what you do but how it's done."

So doing it well is the theme of the day
Get up, dress up, and be on your way

Onward to your glorious destiny
It is written so you must read it intently

Then play!

Yes, play it

Play it like u mean it and mean it when u play it
Nevermind what they say; it's all about how you feel it

Like Bruce Lee mastering the body and mind with martial arts
Like B.B. strumming Lucille not with his hands but with his heart

Like Jesse glowing up the track in Berlin in '36 with four golds after he crossed the finish line
Like Jordan in the 4th quarter so get out of the way 'cause it's winning time

So if you mean it,  go ahead and do it
Why would you not when you were born Intuit

The Exalted One

The flood waters had drawn back
Land made its debut
The past gone and over
With nothing but hope in view

Hard work and labor ahead
Building and creating...what
Grown minds can't forget experience
No matter how one sought

...to begin again

After a time of planting and pruning
Harvest came in fullness of glory
Lending God's blessing
To the legendary story

Funny how a flood can wash away life
But not bring one to self control
The father "god" released himself
To the lusts of his consuming soul

...in celebration of humanity

What did Cush know before
That seeped under the skin to once again
Reveal the nakedness of humanity
And the sepulcher of sin

Had LOVE been present with Noah
His response could not have been a curse
Forgiveness and compassion
Would have covered even the worst

....desires


He walked away with a fear of self
And exalted himself in fear and shame
He would never need that presence again
When he forged a powerful, worship base...of a name

He would create a world of debauchary
Where twisted passions are indulged
Men and women could experiment
And the nakedness of man bulged

...in plain sight

Kingdoms came and went throughout the ages
Merging and assimilating with one
Osiris and Isis, pagan gods
Yet "freedom" displays their symbols under GOD and GUN

All of civilization has been touched by failure
To respond appropriately to fear
Written history slants truth to serve agendas
With peanuts and beer

...with a wink of the eye

The system hides at the height of education
The breaking down of a flowing mind
Add a little "god" to the knowledge
And one can operate outside of the confines of time

Raising humanity above the sludge of soul
Into the heavenlies of  a magical god
Using the terrors and horrors of the past
To make a paved road, much easier to trod

...to the ALL SEEING EYE

Education under the guise of religion
Is the perfect place to hide humanity's fear
We wonder if there is a difference, choice can make
That will bring down an all-consuming fire to sear

Man's conscience to perfection, the sainted election
Of those who will go into the next world, without sin
How can GOD deliver humanity, anew
Without ONE failing again...and again

...nothing new under the sun

Premium Member In the Pit of the Darkness It's Midnight-

In the pit of the darkness it's midnight 
Cross horizon lots of new day
Fluorescent wrong casualties of war 
Spun out tires the interstate grows 
Infatuated with the debacry 
Fathom crew it's all that's lost to me it's new
In the pit of the darkness it's midnight
~
On the clouds of righteousness none of this fits
Caught up in the mirage of prayers
While even in the darkness they pedal their wares
While being strung out on life, embracing your strife
Providence is gunning for you infatuated with the democracy
Fathom cruise it's all that's lost to me and it's new
In the pit of the darkness it's midnight
~
Shall I get up to heaven in this fleshy tattered frame
While it's not about getting their it is more about staying there
For our God has unequivocally has said that there's nothing new under the Sun
For one day when the Son sets down on this terrain ground
Bringing with Him His warring angels to battle the sin ful strangers
~
From the clouds of His righteousness He commits
His merciful salvation yours you should accept
While being strung out on life embracing this strife
Providence is gunning for you infatuated with the bureaucracy
Phantom dues it's all you have left and to me it's old it's new
In the pit of the darkness it's midnight

Callus prospective hues what's true what to do
Turn on the lights, Why? Cause...in the midst of in the pit of the darkness

Proverbially Written

If at first you don't succeed
..try sucking something smaller than a seed
A change would make the rest good
Our company is known by the people we keep kept
passed all things, it me its a m, ust
putting commas wherre i w, ant
adding extra r's
all
swell that end swell swell
your longs
take a breadth
hold it a second sec
i am the exception to every rool
Britannia andy's seem to be causing waves
Do you think the rich have a bet going
on that they can get anyone into seats of power
C.mon president Kermit
Maybe we were corrupt before the power got us
lets turn this u

i have four arms you have been four warned
I do not have a great mind
but i kinda like it
it goes without saying
now is this because there are no words for it
or does a gesture become an action
Nothing new under the sun
this one i like
Out Of site Out Of
mind your step
i think this is your exit


You clapped for them and they were quiet for you

You clapped for them and they were quiet for you
Often strangers clap louder for you 
Than people you thought you knew
This is the mark of my own people

Many tell you that they want to see you grow
But many of them enjoy seeing you when you are at a low!
Smile for the haters
You clapped for them and they were quiet for you

Today frenemies exist
Snakes in the grass that’s ready to bite
Jealousy and resentment run so deep
But you must keep the faith

Frenemies only know gossip
But they cannot stop the victory that belongs to you!
They will try to damage your story
Hoping they can hold on to their glory
They often live in a fake reality
But darkness does not live forever!

You clapped for them and they were quiet for you
There is nothing new under the sun
This we have seen since the beginning of time!
Many tell you that they want to see you grow
But many of them enjoy seeing you when you are at a low
Often strangers clap louder for you 
Than people you thought you knew
Smile for the haters
You clapped for them and they were quiet for you

Nothing New Under the Sun

Nothing New Under the Sun.(Satan’s little helpers)

There’s nothing new under the sun, 
first came the sword then came the gun.

Gonna make me a spear, gonna build me a rocket, 
every bullet they fire is money in my pocket.

I’ve had you fighting your neighbour, had you fighting your brother.
Had you fighting for ‘peace’ then fighting each other.

Communist, Terrorist, Pacifist and Liberalist
On the right on the left, whatever the label.
I’ve got all my horses rounded up in one stable.

The soldiers of Rome impaled their future king.
The soldiers of Hitler did much the same thing.

Oil is the earth’s blood, the prize they all seek,
But I trade it for your blood every day of the week.

It gives me a thrill to see that blood spill,
They’re Satan’s little helpers and they’re there for the kill.

You wanted it all, you reached for the moon.
But you want things in my world, you gotta dance to my tune.

I have to admit, it sends shivers down my spine,
When you salute that flag and I know that you’re mine.

There’s nothing new under the sun, 
Been tellin the same lies since the earth first begun.

I’ll fill you full of facts, just one of my tricks,
You wouldn’t know the truth if it hit you like bricks.

When those witnesses come calling, trying to talk you some sense,
You’ll pay them no heed at your own expense.

I’m the winner now whether you live or die, as long as I have you believing the lie.

You can’t see the picture, and that’s how I like it.
By the time you learn history, you’re already part of it.

There’s nothing new under the sun, first came the sword then came the gun….

Premium Member Self and Satan Git Thee Behind Me Lead Me Not To Temptation

SELF And Satan GIT THEE BEHIND ME LEAD ME NOT TO TEMPTATION


Get back, get back,
Devil
GIT THEE BEHIND ME
Stop whispering in my ear;
I shall not no longer fear, or hear;
now everything that glitters not gold
not everything that's pleasured is good
just because it tastes good
doesn't mean it's good for your body
we must, we mustn't trust everything we think is right
for we must pray-fully acknowledge
everything good not gold

devil I shall not
allow you to lead me into temptation
and myself my choice negative
I bring on my own suffering

for we must pray-fully acknowledge
everything good not gold

Get back, get back,
Devil
GIT THEE BEHIND ME
Stop whispering in my ear;
I shall not no longer fear, or hear;
now everything that glitters not gold
not everything that's pleasured is good
There's nothing new under the sun ;
My Lord my God deliver us from the evil one;

inspired from
--Psalms 51:10

It's All Been Done

There’s nothing new under the sun,
It’s all been done, it’s all been done.

--I’ll make a sword also a gun!
The eighties called, it’s all been done.

--A film with car crashes for fun!
Won an Oscar, it’s all been done.

--A tale where you can speak age one!
They made it twice, it’s all been done.

--A race for folks that cannot run!
They’ve long had those, it’s all been done.

--A tragic play chock full of puns!
Talk to the Bard, it’s all been done.

--Nightmare creatures that shock and stun!
Paging Lovecraft, it’s all been done.

--A trip to refuel the damn sun!
Go read scifi, it’s all been done.

--The something with an airborne nun?
Strangely enough, that has been done.

--Then tales of people wrongly shunned…
Good lord, those have been overdone..

--An ode to folks who weight one ton!
Sadly, again, it’s all been done.

There’s nothing new under the sun,
It’s all been done, it’s all been done…

--Yeah, but it hasn’t been done MY way!

Connect

We are here but brief on the scene of Love  
The worlds a stage we war, we peace in life 
We find pain to connect, pleasure in strife 
Under it toiling endless sun shines from above 
Shattered shards porphyry statues we are split 
A billion loves have come to pass we choose 
A billion times we disconnect we lose 
Loves an energy it draws us near to it  

We defy physics --rupture Natures Cord 
To reject Unity, when we’ve first begun 
Independent discreet entities 
With hate we grow passion with love we grow bored 
Many know, there’s nothing new under the sun 
Evil prevails and we treat Love with enmity
