independence day,
I wanna be free -to love who i wish,
I wanna be free-to reach for my dreams,
i wanna be free-- to achieve no matter,
how far fetch to you they seem,
i wanna be free--to live in peace,
i wanna be free --to see my fantasy,
in the mist of worldly reality,
on these words i shell not choke
to most independence day means cook outs ,fire works,
giving our country it's due ,
as we honor red white and blue
lets take a moment to give the Creator praise,
for giving us another day to find our way,
to that place where being truly free,
is a hunger thats satisfies the need,
there's no other country like ours in the world,
where people come together to speak as one voice,
we have the right to practice our choice,
i just wanna be free to say to all,
have a happy safe forth, peace , wizthom
LOVE IS THE FORCE ,THAT RULES US ALL,,

when i was just a little child,
with eyes of wonder why,
i would ask my father,
why does the stars shine,
he would reply ,
because the night,
needs light,,,,
then i would ask why does the moon shine so bright,
again my father would reply,
because the moon is taking the place ,
of sunshine,,,
daddy,,daddy,daddy,
why is it darkest before the dawn,
my daddy would say,
it's just the way,
of the moon giving the sun the stage,
my daddy ,my daddy ,my daddy,
is the wisest man in the world,
my daddy ,my daddy,my daddy,
a lot of things he helped me to understand,
now,now,now,that i am a man,
with a daughter of my own,
with that same need to understand,
why,why,why,
she says --daddy ,daddy,
why do people treat each other mean,
i say because they've yet to comprehend ,
the true meaning of a friend,
why,why,why,
are there wars,
i reply human kind,
has yet to find the meaning of love,
daddy ,daddy, daddy,
why,why,why,
don't you give them some of yours
i just smile and say child,
because they must find their own,
peace lives inside of spirituality,
of one soul,
i can't give what they will only ignor,
daddy,daddy,daddy ,
why,why,why,
i said mankind fate is sealed,
it's gonna take you my dear,
to carry on when i am gone,
remember to keep the love strong,
one day you will have children of ur own,
you must remember to pass the whys on,
why,daddy ,why, daddy ,why,
u needn't concern urself with the whys,
till Ur time comes,then you will know why,,

sitting here beneath this old shade tree,
being shelter from all that ails society
my homeless friend and me,
drinking beer while reflecting our state of mind,
while philosophizing about life and time,
how can people complain bout the price of gas,
when there's a empty bus in the mist of a massive traffic jam,
no matter the price of fuel people will pay it ,
to drive their hummers,suvs polluting our precious atmosphere,
with their status stupidity ,of greed whining need,
while blaming others for all their troubles,
i turn to him ,he turns to me,
we begin speak of years gone by,
when a friend wasn't someone you rent to own,
a friend would never ask you to sell your soul,
when a friend stopped by it was just because,
time was like family then,
unlike the people rushing to the feed beast,
that turns this old world,round and round and round and round
with a poisonous frozen viper in one hand,
the calm that adds up to fear in the other,
doing their best to keep their status in life together,
far away from reality mayhem
oh no those fools will sleep with a frozen rattle snake,
waiting for it to thaw just to wonder why it bit them,
they just can't see the nature of the beast
they look at us with disgust ,
we look at them with pity,
cause in life the best things are really free,
like good company en lightning conversation,
underneath this old shade tree,
my homeless friend and me,
taking a break from day to day struggles ,
neither one of us know, just where,
we will be tomorrow,
we just pray truth and wisdom to follow us
in a world that has yet to conform us
cause in God we still trust..peace wizthom
