We know To maintain a war/ lotta money is spent/
I don't make a lotta money but I give you my 2 cents/
This- aint about taking sides in a con-flict/
Just Open up ya eyes/ all you see is injustice/
And I don't even wanna talk about the corruption/
My political views/ that's a different discussion/
Let's talk about real people in they apart-ments/
The clock on the wall say the time is apocalypse
And they aint caught up in parliments and partisans/
Losing a part of them/
Who cares who started it/
Grandmothers in they rockin chairs when the rockets hit/
Kindergarten kids/ learnin how to count the carcasses
Lose a lotta blood/ lose concious-ness/
Use a lotta guns/ and you use a lotta common sense/
Like the common- folk...with the common- risks/
Anger and pride say show'em who's dominant/
If u make it alive then how many scars- u get/
To Learn to survive/ apply for the scholarship
on they hands and knees they do fear God/
But fear no man, they stand and squeeze/ ...true optimists
Now They forced to believe, that God give His martyrs- gifts/
Its hard to concieve, the peace that you promise them/
Even if you aint the one starvin or bombin'em/
You ally, the army doin harm/ and pardon them/

got Everybody hollerin/ Somethin gaaatta give/
If not the UN/ or Obama/ Osama then/
I aint trynna condone terrorist acts from anybody/ but everybody is guilty of the followin/
-pointin the finger/ you not being responsible/
Not the solution/ its only one other partner-ship/ the problem-
Somebody gotta start solvin it/
The Qur'an say "Oppression is worse than the slaughterin"/

There's a Cliche-
if it don't kill you then it only make you stronger right?/i think u need a stronger argu-ment...
Everybody talk about that peace/
Come out they lips/
But ha-tred is deep in the heart of men/
In the land where the Prophets lived/
Blood flowin in the streets make some pockets rich/
Somebody go tell Goliath that He not that big/
One Be Lo show the world how to rock dem heads/
Everybody gotta right to protect they kind/
If you take somethin from me/ I'mmo take what's mine/
But keep, takin a eye for an eye/ then I'm sure you'll find/
That kinda life leave the whole world blind/
Think about it...

I'm glad you posted this. It's important to leave out politics every once in a while and remember that each life is as important as the next. The killers are always giving excuses and never taking responsibility. The idea is that if you think you deserve love and a good life regardless of where you come from or what your history is, then you've got to stick up for others that are struggling. Please keep sending out the good vibes and these words that help.

[as usual forgive ALL typos BAD SPELLING and stoned ASS explanations during this "introduction"]..ALSO i apologize its SO FUCKING LONG..-IF YOU WILL-..the other night my sister and i, WELL OK EVERY NIGHT my sister and i chill together, we just bull session about how we grew up to realize together the non-stop "KNOWLEDGE" importance of this subject. you for one! i mean obviously AS USUAL i clap my hands you said it with out even me having to THINK about it explantion wise in my OWN head you SAID IT ALL!..always seem to do so but i mean BUT OK this might not even make sense..speaking in HER SENSE right fast. shes religous like whoa. lives for it. TOTALLY STOKED. love her! she and i decide to touch base on how its MIND shuffling that humans came up with the idea of war. we started blabbing about how its interesting how in "prophecy" revolutions to pinpoint i guess DUH haha that the world will "end in fire" all that eery business ya know [shes tellin me this IM JUST THE MESSENGER] but were just discussing bombs just scary stuff im like..ok wait HERE WE'LL JUST DO THIS..........i go OBVIOUSLY NOT WORD FOR WORD BUT I WONDERED THIS..IM NOT SAYING ITS RIGHT..WRONG..it has ANSWERS..it has QUESTIONS..it answers questions..this is just a thought in my head not claiming to be labled just to be looked at and all that..i know im young i got a lot to attain and break into but this is what i have so FAR..you ready? hold on tight im about to go off!..you wonder why the united states is the one who seems to be like MOST corrupt. to me i see SO FAR not really an answer but an IDEA is we seem to be the most commercial. we turned what pure CULTURED creation was intended to be like EGPYTIANS [go figure ;) hadta throw that in there] and chinese cultures, they turned man mind into masterpieces like THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA and THE PYRAMIDS from CULTURES aka their hearts their BLOOD their ROOTS they were TRULY deeply into whether wanting to be labled as race this that whatever thats personal but JUST AS HUMAN BEINGS. maybe not even that im not them obviously but they did it because they were dedicated. when someones dedicated TO ME its automatic love. therefor cultures. where they came from. the hearts. ..doing what they wanted to do NO INTENTIONS OF WAR OR ANYTHING..thats all they wanted to do and all we ever HAVE to do...ANYWAY, the united states seems to be the MOST into turning OUR OWN kind of culture like ipods, PLASMAS BABY, music HOLLER, ummm clothes, PIMP MY RIDES, ALL THIS SHIT you get me! BUT we turned into what YEAH IS OUR OWN CULTURE and ITS NOT BAD MAN! i fall to the floor being grateful this is like HAPPENING especially at my time were spoiled and FUCKING GENIUS LIKE AN IPOD TOUCH?! TELL ME WHAT YOU SMOKIN!..no but ok i swear look at the difference. the best word like i said IN MY MIND is commercial because you CANT sell pyramids. you CANT sell that great wall of china. its not like WHAT how could we GET THIS TO THE T....the world in GENERAL the more we move forward the more its NOT deeper then money? not pure. pushing AWAY each day AND THE EARTH IS HELLA OLD from being pure. but it seems to be that money is WHY were moving forward i guess? noo? HMMM. you know what i mean though? the more the world like GOES, the more we try to think of things completely UNnatural like robots cleaning our houses blah blah YES thats amazing YES thats what was intended to happen i guess? but it seems to be ALSO the more corrupt we get. were corrupted by PAPER POWER AND PROBLEMS. vicious cycle? of course not ALL or even HALF of this cycle starts with P it just fit! BUT why?! the ones who are so blinded by WHATEVER, WE ARE creating more violence because its a matter of whose better who pissed off who, who stepped on toes, who made mistakes, pulled the firealarm SET SHIT OFF whether serious as hell or tiny tiny salt sized problems whether THAT COUNTRY THIS ONE WHOEVER STARTED IT it either way personally learning in one on one relationships alone VS a damn country IT TAKES TWO TO START A FIGHT. two to set it off. one to hold the dynamite one to CHOOOOOOSE to light it up. WE COULD TOUCH SO MUCH ITS FELXIBLE but MY point was that its interesting whats going on out beyond what people see LIKE YOU SAY its so blinding to people and we dont even see it. we dont acknowledge how much pain ALL HEADS and hearts are going through not knowing AND knowing. even kids KIDS MY GOD im a mom this shit hurts. kids are so pure to me the MOST creative TURLY and look at "us" corrupt and take away bliss. look at the line you wrote and the one weve crossed. thats truth. thats sad. the SADDEST thing is that was "whoevers" choice. you saying point fingers whatever ITS TRUE its like put your damn finger down man you say UNITED we STAND everybody fuck man UNDERSTAND and change it...SHE GOES..its ending in fire cause its neverending war...couldnt tell if she was trying to be catchy like SERIOUS WHATEVER..i got the CRAZY shivers though......whatever we are whoevers deeper or not..its just opinions spitting back and forth..i personally SUCK at politics..i dont even know how to END this damn book..i dont even know if i got my SHIT across whatever SHIT it was..but NOW i know why you say your one be lo..cause your the one man army on the creep about to come through..WAIT look what your already doing..your aware AND IM SURE YOUR AWARE OF IT..i wish we could blow this up in a HUGE sky message..and everyone become familiar with it practice NOT PREACH cause actions SPEAK louder..so just teach it...go get ummmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..your your own A+ on a project..PROJECT DO THE DAMN THING

Thanks for taking the time to write alllllll that. It's a sensitive subject I know, and it's nothing wrong with people getting emotional about it...hopefully those emotions what ever they are motivate us to the right actions, and not just "re-actions". Respect

Good stuff. I hope to hear some new things soon. I also wanted to let u know that for a decade I have considered Illmatic the #1 hip hop album of all time. After a few years of non-stop listening, about 6 months ago Masters Of The Universe took over the #1 spot. Later.

always fascinated by your ability to sit up in the observation booth and report the news. looking back at the papers 60 years ago its the same headline: conflict in the levant (which was the term for the middle east). either way youre right the blood feud blinds both sides--eventually theyre not even gonna remember why they still fight

Thats raw dawg. All your shit is mad inspirational with a good ass message. Man sad how many people don't know too much about hiphop roots and the good it can do. Once I saw your KRS One influence it all made sense. You should try to get in some Rock The Bells this year. Or at least get something poppin over here on the west coast. Shit rock somethin in Vegas, haha im dreamin. Keep up that true revolutionary shit that few will make and hopefully many will wake up and follow. Peace.
