  • hopeless but hopeful

    stuck between the hopeful and hopeless
    wondering why the bad guys always get it best?
    the theory states who you know not what you know
    but all i know is who i know just brings me down...

    i'm hopeless but hopeful
    hopeful to my God to come down
    down t the real life like the ghetto in my sole
    in my soul, yeah

    what sorta mess is this
    lets pick up the pieces
    these lincoln log puzzles
    designed to bring up all around
    but cant help to think to onesself
    the recycled leaves still stay underground

    i'm hopeless but hopeful
    hopeful to my God to come down
    down t the real life like the ghetto in my sole
    in my soul, yeah

    tear. patch. wear. hole.
    break. bind. chain. break.
    break. chain.

    i'm hopeless but hopeful
    hopeful to my God to come down
    down t the real life like the ghetto in my sole
    in my soul, yeah

    what sorta mess.
  • Are you this fleeting?
    Old age is just aroung the bend, I can't wait to look grey.

    I'll sit and wonder of every love that could have been,
    if only i could have thought of something charming to say.

  • Lyrics.

    "And it is true what you said
    That I live like a hermit in my own head
    But when the sun shines again
    I'll pull the curtains and blinds to let the light in"
  • Reply to fascism.

    I don’t think that fascism completely disregards humans as having no value- Within fascism, humans’ value is certainly insignificant, as the totalitarian state is defined by totally absorbing a persons life. The fascist government is designed to completely absorb people’s lives within the state. George Orwell paints a scary picture of his view of the future as a totalitarian fascist regime in his famous book “1984”. In this book, everyone is a hopeless slave to “Big Brother”, or the fascist regime put into place. People’s lives are completely meaningless, disregarded, and abused. The state in a fascist regime completely gets rid of a persons freedom. I think that they recognize that humans have value, they just do not respect it and instead choose to treat humans as worthless. When the main character in 1984 tried rebelling against the state government, he was physically and mentally tortured into submission of the governments will. (If anyone has not read this book, I just spoiled the end, sorry!).
    Another feature of fascism is the lack of open criticism of the government. This freedom of speech it seems is a constant struggle here in our country between the people and the state. It is becoming more and more true that you can speak freely, as long as you do not speak openly against certain people. The person responsible for the “Don’t tase me, bro!” incident was an example of a person being stopped from criticizing the politician John Kerry. Another, more recent example of impeding on freedom of speech was a man who was arrested for posting police information on his twitter. (3) In the modern era where information is one of the most important things you can steal from companies and in the country with the biggest military of the world, exactly how far people’s freedom of speech can go is becoming more and more limited.
