She Represents
03:05
|

She represents
Strength in the flesh
She Represents
Strength in mind.
She is an inspiration to us all -
She is one of a kind
Beauty on the inside
Beauty that cant be contained
Beauty that shines as bright as the sun
Beauty that’s un-ascertained
Robbing her of who she is is like
Robbing the earth of the sun
Taken so long for realization
Her time has finally Come!
Now's her chance to rise up and take her turn
As partner
As equal
As inspiration
All the barriers of the past we will burn,
We must make today
A day of Appreciation
So many years it has taken
Man has been so sadly mistaken
Today we say goodbye to the past
It Reeks
Today we seek true equality
There’s only one thing left to say
SHE REPRESENTS!!!

My Scene
02:17
|
|||
Better late than never
Even better never late
Reach out to your brothers
Stop the hate that keeps us separate
Old school is what I am
Bearing many scars
The scene has come so far
Energy is what we need
Love for what we got
Is the seed to be planted
Never take for Granted
What We’ve Fought For!
In the Southeast
Never seen peace
Prejudice in the flesh - this was a mess
Causing much distress - I profess
Many fought and died
Many mothers have cried
Many victims of the Unseen war
Never forget what we’ve fought for
Never Forget
When were split apart click to sect
We allow the roots of prejudice to infect
Us vs. Them
It’s a parody
It’s insanity
Unique-quity is our strength and should be praised- not hazed
Old School Mother Fuckers like me fought and died for a cause
No Need for applause
Just never forget
Never disrespect
Never take for granted
What We’ve Fought For
My Scene
Is what we fought for
My Scene

False Priorities
03:53
|
|||
Injustice reigns supreme
In a World with False Priorities
Will we ever learn?
Will we ever see?
Injustice Reigns Supreme
In a World with False Priorities.
Entertainment, pertinent
for a world that can’t look at itself.
Poverty, and Money’s reality,
A Byproduct of wealth
With alarming stealth the leftover tasks
Of generations past, Has become a vast ordeal
Will we deal with it?
Or will our children inherit it?
It remains to be seen
Injustice Reigns supreme
In a World with False Priorities
Environment, industry and government Don’t mix
We’re in a fix
We’ve cracked the base of life
The reefs, the forests, the frogs
Who’s the next to go?
Will we ever know?
Will we ever see?
Injustice Reigns supreme
In a World with False Priorities
As a people, were brilliant and bright
But I’m shocked at our lack of sight
Drop pebble in a pond and watch the ripples touch the other side
Thus, is life, a web of our energy
We create this reality
And affect everything you see
Everything we dream Can Be
But remember,
Injustice reigns supreme
Will we ever see?

Unity
03:14
|
|||
Look into yourself, Find the root
Racist or not,
The point is moot
Because the world will crumble
Unless we can become Humble…
Enough to,
Cast off color,
Cast off culture,
Unlearn racist propaganda
So we can Accept others as given
And Turn this hell into our heaven
Drive and desire may be different,
But the blood in our veins is not
The power of respect and honesty
Will conquer,
Where Bullshit will not
You know the day of disinterest is OVER
We can’t afford not to Care
The power of peace has been withheld too long
We must all prepare
Cause it’s Our generations turn
And all you racist mother fuckers will BURN
The power of peace cannot be felt
Until the seed of the fascists has been killed
You know, We’re tired of being beaten down,
For having an open mind
No longer will innocents Suffering
Be a sign,
Of the Times
All the choices that we make
All the liberties that we take
We’ve got to break the old Patterns of HATE
We’ve got to keep them in the past
Can’t allow them, To last
Then maybe at last
We can bring our Highest Truth to pass
The rights of others equal to our own rights
Maybe we can bring man
Out of this plight
But we’ve got to be willing to FIGHT
For justice, for Peace, for UNITY

Our Time
02:40
|
|||
This is our time,
What will we do
This is our World
It’s up to me and YOU
To take the steps our fathers have only dreamed
To bring this world out of fire before were burned
It’s only taken forever to realize there’s something wrong
Anger, hatred, greed
Have ruled for so long
The tools for change lie in our hearts and in our minds
When you hear these words,
It will be a sign
To take our thoughts and focus on unity we must achieve
The togetherness our hearts long for
A world where everyone has enough
No static, no tension, no suffering
No more injustice
We can do this if we focus
This is our time,
What will we do?
This is our world
It’s up to me and YOU
Our thoughts are creative,
Our Thoughts are powerful
United for a common goal
A greater good for everyone
When you hear these words we have begun
We will overcome
Negativity and Hatred
Which has held us down!
This is our time
We will OVERCOME!

Question
04:06
|

Why must it be this way?
I hope and pray for the day when suffering sees its end,
When we all realize the connection and stop moving in different directions
When Love, Joy and Highest truth replace
Anger, greed and hatreds face
One day it will happen when we have the guts to ask
Why?
Why must it be this way?
Why?
Can you hear me?
Answer me!
For few to have much
many must have little
Violence breeds violence and peace is belittled
Desensitized
dehumanized we’ve become
We’re numb to the sickness that surrounds us
Self-interest replace common good
When will we ask
When can we ask
Why?
Why must it be this way?
Why?
Can you hear me?
Answer me!
I hope and pray for the day when suffering sees its end,
When we all realize the connection and stop moving in different directions
When Love, Joy and Highest truth replace
Anger, greed and hatreds face
One day it will happen when we have the GUTS to ask Why?
I ask myself Why?
I ask myself Why?
For few to have much, many must have little
Violence breeds violence and peace is belittled
Desensitized, dehumanized we’ve become
We’re numb to the sickness that surrounds us
Self-interest replace common good
When will we ask?
When should we ask?
Why!
Why!
Must!
It!
Be this Way

What if I’m not like you?
What are you going to do?
What if I’m not like you?
You’ve got a problem with me?
Ive got a problem with you!
Can you relate to me?
Will you alienate me?
Do you hate me for how I choose to live?
Are you the judge and the jury?
Will you decide what’s right
Will you respect my choices or are we going to fight
What if I’m Straight Edge,
But some of my friends are not?
Have I fallen from grace?
Will you try to bust my face?
What if not Christian? What if I’m not white
Are you the judge and jury will you decide what’s right
Like it or not our cultures must find a way to co-exist.
You cant force your morals on others with your fucking fists.
We must come together,
Once and for all!
We must accept each other,
And barriers will fall.
Are you the judge and jury will you decide what’s right
Will you respect my choices?
Or, are we going to fight?
What if I disagree?
Is it up to you to make up my mind?
What if I offer my hand?
Will you try to take my life
What if I’m disabled?
Now is your hatred enabled?
What if I’m overweight?
Do I now deserve your hate?
We must come together!
Once and for all
We must accept each other,
And barriers will fall.
