Happiness isn't that far
If you try
It Ain't that hard
Rolling with the windows down
Wind blowing in my hair
Siting on my deck
Marshmellow on a stick
Happiness isn't that far

Poor Bus
I make my stops, and cruise along.
A normal day for a bus,
The busyness overwhelms me,
Still, I keep traveling along my route,
Last stop, I pick up a man,
Just another passenger to me,
Unaware of what is under his shirt,
I drive away,
Seconds later shrapnel starts flying,
Time slows down, while people are dying,
A shockwave has been sent leaving families crying,
I lay in pieces on the street,
I know this isn't right,
Why must these people continue to fight?

Israel and Palastine Rap
Israel and Palastine have been fighting for a long time
Put yourself in Palastines position
and take a second to listen
Once there was a war that lasted 6 days
Bombs conceled the nation in a haze
Once the smoke had cleared
The West Band and Gaza Strip was revealed
Palastine had rocks, Israil had guns
Palastine was left with little to none
So then came the intifada, Hammas were the ones
Religion and landmarks is what its all about
Will there ever be peace?
There will always be doubt
The green line in the Israli mind, defined the power of their kind
Innocent civilians drop dead on the Gaza Strip
That shit el' make your vision warp like an acid trip
Palastine took their lumps, took their bumps
Fell down but they got right back up
The US is desprate for total protection
So we pay to build a wall in Israils defense n'
all we really get is total distruction.
Netenyahu is pushin your peace, as settlements
continue to be built, its only common sense
its going to be tense, taking my cents.
People all over know the PLO is destined
to show their right to overthrow.
When together we try to avoid eye contact
cause that opens a door for conflict, like we'ed want that
The jewish is foolish for trying to overthrow
In a world of violence suicide is fo sho.
A 3 state solution will stop the killig
even tho Palastine has not been willing
Joursalem should be acknowledged as a neutral state
the violence will cecrease at a constant rate
Some ignore the conflict between Israel + Palastine
ARE YOU KIDDING? EVERYTHING IS NOT FINE!!!

Heroes?
Awaiting the single moment
of becoming a hero
Palms are sweaty, thoughts are deadly
but on the surface he looks calm but sweaty
The smell of blood already fills the air
the feeling of cottonmouth is overwhelming
as i patiently await total distruction
Children, moms, fathers and sons
laugh and sing with enjoyment
"BOOM" all is silent
of becoming a hero
Palms are sweaty, thoughts are deadly
but on the surface he looks calm but sweaty
The smell of blood already fills the air
the feeling of cottonmouth is overwhelming
as i patiently await total distruction
Children, moms, fathers and sons
laugh and sing with enjoyment
"BOOM" all is silent
My Only Son
The day came I never thought would come
unexpected
The cold air makes me remember
The day before the bomb went off
His scent lingers all around
I'm alone
Why did he do it, I do not know
religion, honor, desire?
The death of my son I'll never forget
flashbacks
Memories come back like a rushing wind
The day came I never thought would come.

School
What's the big deal about school
The public looks like fools
some wish to have it
others wish drop it
some can only dream it
others can only dread it
Many believe in education
while others believe its destruction
Many don't have the money
to some if flows plenty
it helps for building
but also for falling
it educates the smartest
but also educates terrorists
people going to college
to get more knowledge
to receive a job
not become a slob
although it causes stress
it creates less crime, less hunger
takes up your time and makes people wonder
school is great and all
and makes me stand tall
above the crowd but what about others
who are thrown under the covers
those who aren't lucky like me
who can't get it as easily
so whats the big deal
we should all get to feel
the power of your brain
we should all get to feel
the stupidity drain
let the knowledge flow like rain
and make your head go insane
the rich or the poor
make education not war
so don't be fooled
or we'll all get schooled

God's Galaxy
Flickering flames of scalding heat,
embers red with fiery strength.
Fly away pieces melt away earthly desire.
Body of fire fades with time.
Wooden fuel catches the light,
circle of friends share more than warmth.
Water poured to end the danger while
darkness spreads throughout the forest.
Diamonds sparkle beyond our finger tips.
Animals wake with a stomach to fill,
grace takes flight on the wings on an owl.
Moment gone in mere seconds of memory,
no matter the hearts of those around.
Remembered throughout time
for the yawn of life that starts the night.
