Title: You Are Not Alone (Just Look This Way)
Type: serious
When the world feels so cruel,
Life seems to be unbearable,
Just look to the sky,
Have they not seen worse than what you are in now.
If your friend seem to lose interest,
The things that make you happy,
Now shatter your heart,
And you lost all hope.
You are not alone,
Just look this way,
And you'll see what we all see.
This world is not as bad as you think,
This heart is not shattered for any reason,
It is our hardships that make us strong,
And it's our hope that makes people realize,
That within us, is another being,
A more beautiful human being,
Then the one you see on the outside.
When everything seeing to shatter down,
Don't worry; it's not the end of the world,
Just look at the smile that person gave you,
Doesn't that light up your world?
Don't those warm eyes tell you all?
That you are never alone.
When no one seems to care,
Remember that smile the other day,
And see the world through that pearson's eye,
And guess what?
The world is the best thing you ever know.
So, remember this,
You are never alone,
Just look this way,
And you'll know the truth,
That the world is so much better than what it seems.

TITLE: Changes in the world
TYPE: Serious
The first thing to do, is to get America to come through.
We have the technology, but we do not seem to see.
We can make alternative fuels, but politicians are cruel.
When will we smarten up, to the Mideast we are pups.
Why must we wait, until we send more troops to the bait.
In 1970 we knew this, now that is why I am pissed.
Oil companies are too strong, that is just plain wrong.
Car companies buy the politicians too, and we are like a bunch of cattle - Moo!
Global warming is part of all this, fossil fuels - send away with a kiss.
Gas prices still soar, it eats me to the core.
I would change this one deed, I would make the government take the lead.
They would pay big bucks, to anyone who can solve this muck.
Everyone knows that money talks, and that bulls_ _ t walks.
No, this does not solve everything, but oil would not be the bling-bling.

TITLE: Changes I would make
TYPE: Funny
My first decree would be to say,
it is a parkway not a driveway.
The car is parked any fool can see,
so it is a parkway, I would decree.
The second correction I would make,
is to swap some salaries around for heavens sake.
How about teachers being paid a million a year,
and ball players being paid just enough to get a beer.
Then I would make all those droopy drawer boys pull up their pants,
and make all the negative people say I think I can instead of I think I cants.
Next I would neuter and spade all the ignorant homo sapiens,
because they should not reproduce, to me it offends.
Politicians, now there is a group of idiots,
getting all dressed up and putting on the Ritz.
Then vote their pocketbooks, and that is no lie.
I say they get one term, but boy would they cry.
As for voting to go to war, I have the answer to that too,
let the world leaders fight it out, and get their just due.
I know one thing, if that were the case,
they would find a peaceful solution face to face.
Who am I to make these changes, why my name is Nate,
and you and all your friends can vote for me in 2008.

TITLE -- I'd Make the Sunset Last Forever
TYPE -- Serious
I'd make the sunset last forever,
I'd make flowers grow all year,
I'd take away debauchery,
to moral values we'd adhere.
I'd pick a special day,
once in every week,
to spend at home with family,
togetherness we'd seek.
The beauty of the mountains
would be available to all,
just look outside your window
and there they will stand tall.
Respect wouldn't be forgotten,
you would see it every day,
in the restaurants, on the streets,
it would be the common way.
Everyone is stressing
about the biggest things in life.
If we made time for simple pleasures,
it could end the larger strife.

Calypso Freeze
Type: Funny
Enjoying a morning walk,
Chalking on the ground,
It’s homecoming week,
With the Calypso theme
So off we go,
Me and my group,
Happily getting the chalk,
Hey where are we choosing our location.
Down we go,
Drawing the patterns,
I start to feel cold,
Shoot, I forgot my jacket.
Weather drops really down,
I'm freezing my b u t t off,
But hey,
We’re winning
So now I’m in the house,
Thawing from the cold,
Learned my lesson,
Never will I forget my jacket again.

Titel: My vision thing...
Type : Serious
In my vision, in my kingdom
We would clear our mind to see the true path
and wash our spirit with fate's crystal water
to understand the rapture of life, our earthly delights
and feel the essence of river flowing from God
.........But be aware
.........to change our world
.........we must change ourselves first...
In my vision, in my kingdom
We would seek knowledge, a higher awareness
and hear the whispers of the Elders with respect
to learn the ancient ways to flourish the new
and recognize the importance of our world
.........But be aware
.........to change our world
.........we must change ourselves first...
In my vision, in my kingdom
We would open our hearts to embrace each other
and simply let go the arrogance of the ego
to burn away hatred, our archaic believes
and celebrate equality the wisdom of unity
.........But be aware
.........to change our world
.........we must change ourselves first...
In my vision, in my kingdom
We would live in peace, without prisons and armies
and let our innocent children's life run freely
to experience harmony, true love's first kiss
and not letting sorrow become their heart's thief
.........But be aware
.........to change our world
.........we must change ourselves first...
In my vision, in my kingdom
We would watch the full flowering of the world
and expend our luxury of comfort to reach all of us
to let everyone grow old, without suffering and pain
and be apart to this timeless golden age
.........But be aware
.........to change our world
.........we must change ourselves first...

Title: Consuming Dream
Type: serious
Inside her blooms a sadness
hidden within her conscience
to which, she shows no one
so her sadness remains a secret
With every meal and every day
she was consumed by her dream
Of becoming thin and pretty
which ate at her heart slowly
Each plate she ate grew smaller
as puke then consumed the toilet
She cried from all the loneliness
making her dream just that important
Frightening friends and family
as all her health has disappeared
Fearing to now be far too late
as another soul escapes the taste
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Title: The Devil's Feast
Type: Funny/Serious
Our world is moving backward,
fighting wars from in the past.
Worrying about biological warfare,
when our president should be gassed.
Slitting wrists is now in style,
among the youth of this decade.
It's like your life can't be complete,
without drugs and getting laid.
Even child abuse is on the rise,
sick parents who like to molest.
In order to become a parent,
you should have to pass a test.
People even question faith,
within the Christian world,
just because deranged priests,
molested little boys and girls.
There are so many idiots,
among the world today.
So many stupid optimists,
that are always acting gay.
I'm so sick of all their lies,
and all their forced beliefs.
I can't be happy with this world,
so I'll partake in the devil's feast.

Title: Hindsight
Type: Funny/Serious
I wonder what Martin would think,
if he took a look at our generation,
and saw that those he once stood for,
have succumbed to degradation.
He'd scowl at the way women are treated,
by the men of their own race.
Treated as nothing more than property,
a nationwide disgrace.
He'd watch the hip-hop videos,
turning his head as if not to see,
women dancing half-naked,
right upside Snoop D O double G.
He would see the war is civil now,
race no longer divides the sides.
The black population kills itself,
gang members who kill to survive.
He'd realize that his time was wasted,
no improvements have been made.
There is only one true difference now,
whites aren't needed to degrade.

Title: Many years ago
Type: Serious
many years ago, when time had no meaning, the world was different, it was abundant, with tree's, leaves and shrubs, many animals, then the humans came along, destroying many things, if the world was back to what, it was many years ago, thats how i'd like it, so change the world, back to what it was.

Title:Look at the world
Type: Funny

Title: Almost Paradise
Type: Serious
When I saw you
I knew I was in love
Looked up at the sky
And thanked God from up above
Each time I stepped closer
Your smile grew bigger
I said hi my name is Joe
Can I take you out sometime
Our conversation grew deeper
As she said I have a boyfriend
I looked up at the sky
And said, I thought dreams were supposed to come true
I told her I was sorry
And just wanted to be friends
For every time I saw her, I saw paradise
And I knew deep inside, that I couldn't lose her
Why, oh why
Did it have to be this way
I pray every night
That she'll become mine
And when that day comes
I'll smile everyday
And thank God for answering my prayers
Use us as an example
For our love can change the world
And stop people from hating
And love more everyday
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Happy voting!
