Tea-bagging America
I have come to expect
the reecho of this
hate and spite-full contempt
born of selfish regret
in an ideal that failed
in a virtue misplaced
a reaction that serves
only to further impair
an internal contention
where has this lead you?
over-valued currency
valued over basic humanity
Why cant you see,
blatant hypocrisy
in what you've done and said and totally believe
You cant explain,away complacency
with a narrow view of the world around you
I have looked up
to the man that I knew
a collection of skills,
ethics, heart and value
The man that taught me to see
between the story sold
and the complex realities
that unfold
so why cant I resolve
this confusing dissension
of a respected wisdom
and the adoption of a tapered view
Why cant you see,
blatant hypocrisy
in what you've done and said and totally believe
Its not that I'm an authority on
resolving the disparity between ideals and ideology
But I know what I see
And as it seems to me
a great epiphany
may never be
This Great Epiphany
May Never Come to be
THIS GREAT EPIPHANY MAY NEVER COME TO BE
An internal contention
A confusing Dissension
The Adoption of a tapered view
such a narrow view of the world around you!
I have come to expect
the reecho of this
hate and spite-full contempt
born of selfish regret
in an ideal that failed
in a virtue misplaced
a reaction that serves
only to further impair
an internal contention
where has this lead you?
over-valued currency
valued over basic humanity?

What a World

He lies awake at night,
contemplating this world
a cesspool of deceit , and immorality
A sacrifice must be made. one life for a thousand saved
in his heart True, True belief.
He never second guessed.
What a world to work like this.
Something you cannot dismiss
Sometimes what is best in us.
is brought out by the worst of us
A normal day in the life of a normal man
in hours he'd be dead
downed by the "zelots" hand
and when those shots were heard
he never said a word, just turned,
Ran in toward the the sound
He never, He never second guessed
What a world to work like this.
Something you cannot dismiss
Sometimes what is best in us.
is brought out by the worst of us
If you over analys this scene
it might seem obscene to be...
But Im not painting any "Silver Lining"
What a World to work like this
What a world to work like this

THIS IS NO VELVET REVOLUTION LYRICS
In a land of misconception
Represented in two dimensions
ONE MILLION PEOPLE MARCH
In a silence heard throughout the world
And as the night falls upon
The weakening will to refrain
SHOUTS FROM THE ROOFTOPS
Weather the malevolence of tyranny
As a cold stare turns to death
The voracity for truth Fulfilled through
martyrdom and faith
And as the blood flows from her nose
We know we stare upon the face
Of No Velvet Revolution
THIS IS NO...
Peaceful Resolution
THIS IS NO...
Non-Violent revolution
THIS IS NO...
Velvet Revolution
THIS IS NO...
Is this just a fleeting moment of benevolence?
or have we found the capacity to commiserate?
The spirit of resolve sustained
Pumping through your hearts and veins
Though Blood and sorrow still remains
"DEATH TO TYRANTS!!!" Your refrain!!
