Before Its Too Late

With all the tragedies striking all around the world,even when given a date
People seem to be like idiots just waiting till its too late
No time to help others, feed hungry children,no time to stop racism
Only time to host elaborate parties,fly on a whim,operate off shores accounts

The greatest battle we all must face is to realize that our government is ruined
That politicians have all turned to committing the most vile evils, the love of greed
As monies disappear and evaporate into "Pork Belly Accounts" unseen
Our children education is on the verge of existence,yet we pretend....

That all the things the constitution stood for is now being ignored,ridiculed,or rewritten
The right to "free" speech,bear arms,the right to an education,the right to assemble
Everything we take for "granted" is now being called a privilege...

America  take a stand and use your voice let your actions speak!
Did you know that if government declares a state of emergency 
the military can take over the police force?

We could be looking at a modern day hostage situation with us,the Americans being
held captive!! Wake up and investigate 

Do you trust your government?

Some Say

Some say that some people never learn from their mistakes
To challenge life like leaves left un raked
Blowing in the grass on the sidewalk lifelessly misplaced
Too many misfortunes living life in a daze
Many dreams replay in your mind like a damaged scene
Wishing you could do life over again

Some say that some people heads are as hard as bricks
Too smart to see the truth too dumb to make sense
Moving toward trouble at an accelerated speed
No brakes no helmet no pads for the knees
Dreaming of a day to be set free from insanity

Some say that some people are being led by the blind
To never see an attack when it comes up from behind
Trusting transparent faces meaning nothing but deceitful smiles
To know that bad apples only last for a short while
Wipe the winded glaze the smirk of life from your face
Hoping to see life at its full grace

Look Around

New year meant new changes that some how got missed placed
All the resolutions meant to be good were quietly maced
No more good times and cheery smiles as our lives went wild
Tighter purse strings and few newer things as bells ring
Time to learn new trades and new ways to supplement income
Only time knows the destruction as the earth drinks rum
Bellowing smoke signals quickly ignored as the world sings its highest roar
All signs directly point to the end of time,a new era to begin
This life is going down fast from excessive sin

Prepare to stand for the poor and righteous and bear arms together
Look to the sky observe this outrageous weather
Be aware and stay prayed up with good intentions

Call Him

Call on him in troubled times when no solution can be found
The good books says that you can call him so you don't drown
When in need on bended knee,in the shower,sitting in your car
Call on him when your load seems heavy and walk is too far
When the breaking point is touching your heels and soles are burning
Drop down and pray for spiritual food is all your soul is yearning
Call on him when trouble come knocking on your door
The car is repossessed,bills delinquent,lord I can't take no more
Revelation,Matthew,John,and many more read the book to help your soul unwind
Let go and let God help you sometimes
Put the problem to the lord and watch blessings pour
God can deliver you,you shall suffer no more

Who Said

WHo said my life had to be carved and painted and placed on display for all to see?
That my actions would create a tornado and cyclone of disaster behind me
That I had to mimic my ancestors course of history
Instead of making my own masterpiece

Who said that I would be doomed to trials and tribulations placed before me
But I rose again and again standing  tall and strong like an oak tree
Didn't bother me when others turned me down bowing their heads in shame
Yet I continued like the strong person I was meant to be

Who said that everyone's blueprint was stamped loser or winner or rich or poor
Only God can judge us once we've entered that door
I placed my name card under determined strong minded and willing to try
Knowing one day we will laugh smile frown and cry

I Often

I often lay awake just before dawn,you know,when the birds are singing so sweetly
Thinking what i would be like for you to cuddle and hold me
To  feel your closeness and know that its real,to hold my breath to keep you still
To look into your eyes and see the love you store in your heart fitted of a glove

I often lay awake just before dawn,you know,when the birds are singing so sweetly
Thinking what a real relationship would really  mean to me
To know that I can depend on you for my cushion to soften my blows
When life means I'm falling and your standing to pull me up from below

I often lay awake just before dawn,you know,when the birds are singing so sweetly
Thinking what it would feel like to have a mate not a soul cause we can grow....together
Bound my honesty,trust,held together by communication,copulation,and love
Your brains and my inner beauty,my strength,and your determination makes us unstoppable

I often lay awake just before dawn,you know,when the birds are singing so sweetly
Praying that you will soon search for me and hear the vibrations of my heart beat
Knowing that you and I are meant to be.....

Humor Me

Who said you couldn't grab life by the lemons and make a tropical drink?
I really would like to know who bananas don't stink
Who said you can't go anywhere you want,do anything you do?
Everything is just a greyhound,megabus, heck even a car trip away.....
All you need is a place to sleep,a map,and about a hundred bucks

What I'm saying is this life is simple have fun,think of something to do and do it
Every day have a simple fun goal and run with it include everyone
Wait to hear people say "I can't believe the fun I had at(your name here) shigding"
Money doesn't make you really happy,it onlys makes you gray quicker

So help the community by helping others have fun and give that stuff away
The things you've been waiting to sell,find someone who needs it,and give it

God Bless Us All,Spread love cause it's contagious!!!

It's a Recession

It's A Recession going on out here
Cars left unsold houses left empty and bare
No jobs, no food,no money for nothing
Everyday your out there hustling

It's A recession going on for everybody breathing
Baby's crying no milk no food for the feeding
No money bank balance is negative zero
Please send me my super hero

It's a Recession as we speak right now
Help your fellow neighbor some way some how
God say ask and you shall receive as long as you believe in me
Don't worry brighter days are soon coming
Learn not to fret but start singing and humming
Pray for everyone you know and love
And watch your blessings come pouring from above

IT's A Recession!!!
Learn to say it and watch you get some free s**t!
Learn to say "is that with the discount"?
Learn  to smile!

If Only

If only my thoughts could filter the summer breeze
to places that many could see
then I could start the words for the wind to carry away
maybe for someone to catch one day
If only my actions could travel like the leaves have been blown
to places to many left unknown
the mystery would reveal the true meaning of life
If only one could remember the first kiss of sunshine on the face
then maybe you would want the summer to stay
