The First Lesson
As children we all look down and see
A Flower growing
So small
So pretty
Then we are taught it’s not so great
A weed, they say
The first to discriminate
How can a world with such beauty and wonder
Have the right to say which is better than another?

One line of Love
I want all of you for all of me...
But isn't that the way its supposed to be?
But isn't that the way its supposed to be?

Dear sweet old "Uncle Sam" and my loving "Big Brother"
Why would you punish someone
for bringing forth the truth
You say you're all for honesty
when its not involving you
How long will we be punished
for all of your deceit
I'm sorry I'm not sorry
but someone had to say...
For a man of such great power
oh how corrupting are your ways
for bringing forth the truth
You say you're all for honesty
when its not involving you
How long will we be punished
for all of your deceit
I'm sorry I'm not sorry
but someone had to say...
For a man of such great power
oh how corrupting are your ways

My "Protector"
Where were you when I screamed out in the night
Where were you when I cried
Where were you when I could not fight
Where were you when I died
Your job was to protect me
Keep me safe and warm
But instead you let me be
No one was there to mourn
Where were you when I cried
Where were you when I could not fight
Where were you when I died
Your job was to protect me
Keep me safe and warm
But instead you let me be
No one was there to mourn

Waiting...
I look around but your not here,
All I see is blackness.
Why did you have to go away?
I wish I could have hidden you,
And never let you leave.
Why did you have to go away?
You are high up on a hill,
While I am deep in this valley.
Why did you have to go away?
I have no way to get to you,
And you have no way back.
Why did you have to go away?
What now is left but to wait till we find a way,
to see each other again.
Why... Oh Why! did you have to go away?
All I see is blackness.
Why did you have to go away?
I wish I could have hidden you,
And never let you leave.
Why did you have to go away?
You are high up on a hill,
While I am deep in this valley.
Why did you have to go away?
I have no way to get to you,
And you have no way back.
Why did you have to go away?
What now is left but to wait till we find a way,
to see each other again.
Why... Oh Why! did you have to go away?

Stand UP
We ain't more than numbers
number to the state
We ain't more than pawns
pawns of the rich and great
We know the time is coming
coming to stand up firm
We will stand one and all
and take back the freedom we deserve
number to the state
We ain't more than pawns
pawns of the rich and great
We know the time is coming
coming to stand up firm
We will stand one and all
and take back the freedom we deserve
