Tragedy #PrayForBrussel I know that it has been a while, I have not had any presence here for quite a long time now. But earlier today, I was made aware of the horrible attack on Brussels. I will not attempt to write a #poem about this horrible event, as it is too much of a tragedy for me to think to hard of it. Instead, I choose to write a few words, I hope you listen. A great man once said "There is nothing to fear, but fear itself" I pondered this #quote, wondering the true meaning of it. When the true meaning stumbled upon me today. We are not all great men, in fact, most of us, including myself, are very far from it. But within us, is the ability to be great. That, is what seperates us, from animals and brutes The ability, and the desire for greatness. But most of all, out ability, our divine ability to be great-together. I, as well as millions of others, have shed a tear today for those lost in the attack in Brussels. We cry not for ourselves, not for hate, not for revenge, and not even of fear. Today we cry for those lost, and for the families of them, and their families and so on We shed a tear for the many who will be all but frozen with fear brought upon them by the terrorist group known to us as ISIS. But tomorrow, we will shout We will shout not for vengance, not in fear, but for justice. Justice for those who have been taken from us. And now, I ask you for one favor Stand up Stand up for humanity, and our persuit of greatness Stand up, Against the boundries of oppression Not national boundries, not oppresion of religion or race Stand up against the boundries and oppression of fear, Against those that wish to keep us from acheiving our greatness, Stand up against them because they keep us from being together Stand up for love, Stand up for peace, Stand up for greatness, Stand up for pride in our greatness Stand up for our war, Not a war for god or for country, Not a war faught with guns, bullets or bayonets, We will fight a war on fear, And we will fight it by having no fear, We will have no fear by standing up, Standing up together to fight the forces of fear, Stand up for freedome, Stand up for hope, Hope that we will one day overcome, Stand up not because you have to, Not because you have to, Because you want to, Or because someone told you to, Stand up because it is right But most importantly, Stand together, Stand together in the impenetrable line of humanity, Stand so close together that no ammount of fear, or anything, that could ever tear us apart We will stand together, Or we will not stand at all

    In The End I lived in a room of mirrors, All I saw, Was only me So I broke the glass, Finally, I see Now I see the truth, Am I free at last? Looking through my looking glass I see familiar faces Familiar faces, Judging down upon my past And now I see the time- It's going by too fast Again feel the sting- It's been so long But I remember Everything Sometimes I wonder why, There's so much hate, In love Sometimes I wonder if, If there's anyone above Why does he allow such pain? Is there anything to gain? Why does he let us fight? Every day, And every night? Sometimes I wonder why, Why was I, Even born? Was I born to hate? Are we all, Born to die? In my veins runs so much hate, Now I realize I need to change my shape, But I fear It's much to late Our lives are run by pain The pain is everything Is this #life worth living? Fueled by so much hate? Would anyone know, If I was dead? When everyone I've loved, Simply leaves, In the end Perhaps, I should die, And leave this passion of hate, Some say I need to die- But that is not my fate... We aren't born to die We are born to live We are born to love, Not to hate- -but forgive If you could take it all, All the all the love and all the pain If you could take the pain -and throw it all away But can you lose the love? Could you let it stay... The pain is who are, But love who we become, And this journey, Is never done So I threw it away, My Regime of hate, If I could try again... I would choose to love I would let it stay...

      What's Never Been People say, But I don't know, Why they say What's never been's, Never been so And they cry, But oh, For why? We all know, It's but a show Not sure why they say, What's never been's Never been so For I, Can fly, And kiss the snow It's true, It'd be easier on the ground, But I'm no cheater, And I've been around While they say What's never been, Has never been so, We sit, In wonder... We wonder, "What the hell does that even mean?" I'll tell you children, It can mean, Anything Every paper bag, Bottle cap, Or diamond ring All this nonsense, Will always be so, And no, Santa Claus, I shall not go, HO HO HO Barbie is the president, My cell phone is made of adamantium, If you call me a liar, You might be true, But I'll light your house on fire But don't say "What's never been's, Never been so" I've found, What's never been's, Always been so, Between the colours and all the bling, I've found out, I know EVERYTHING

        Land Of The Free Sorry in advance for any spelling/grammar errors. My keyboard is not exactly friendly In the land of the free, And the home of the brave, We are not treated as people, But treated as a slave. Where we blame everything on guns, Racism, And Xbox What a world, Where a gun Can kill a man Because you see, Mine is fine, In a safe And it hasn't shot me yet But maybe it has a plan, But I don't know anything I will never be respected, In this land of the free Everthing I have done, Has been supposedly, Handed down to me Apparently, This makes makes me wrong So for fuck's sake let be In the land of the free, And the home of all but equal, We are all phycopaths, Stupid, And clinically evil Our soldiers are roaming homless, But a man who has never worked in his #life, Is entitled to my money This is all true... I wish I was being funny Pepsi is a dollar, A water is three, McDonald's on a card, In the land of the free, Try not to catch obesity Our cops are not heroes, But our criminals are revolutionaries, Politicians are dictators, Our society all but varies All are men are rapists, All the whites are racists, All our cops are brutal, All our flags are offensive, All our kids are stupid, But what would I know? I am not a person I am just another slave In the land of the free, And the home of the brave...

          Outta Here Tax my house, Tax my car, Tax my music, Cause it's going "too far" Tax my water so I'm drinking beer, The only thing on my mind, Is gettin outta here Or they'll just force me out- Before next year Credit scores falling like New York Metts, Stock market's crashing, Like Al-Queida jets Another politician bought his way to the lead, While they ignore those in need, Tax my friend cause he cannot read, Now he's sucking down a pint if mead Rich man walked right by, Another homeless guy Hobo Joe With a missing toe While Santa Clause yelled "ho ho ho" And the rich man chanted "Oh, no, no, no" Hobo Joe, Oh don't you know, Oh don't you hear? You've gotta find some way outta here I wish that I could find, Some way outta here Away from, Every broken picture, Every fallen tear, Every shot of whiskey, Every single beer, The rich man, Knows that he can, But he just watches as a young boy Gets shot up in a van- All my people, Why can't you see? There's nothing left, That we could be I think it's time that we all go, Fell it in my bones, Don't you know? We cry- And ball- But even after it all, The rich man snicker, And sneer, Gotta find, Someway outta here...
