Remember The Cause

It’s amazing what this world is coming to!!

Honest people forgetting what they’re supposed to do.

It’s like I’m livin’ in a dream with no possibilities

Of waking up to harness my own capabilities

Restricted by the rules…created for the masses

When the people enforcing them are all acting like @sses

And they feel like they don’t have to follow what they’re preaching

Don’t do what I do; yeah that’s what they’re teaching

Revolutions on the tips of our tongues

We’re taking freedoms from the lives of our young

It won’t be long before the damage is done

And we’ll be talking to our daughters and sons

About a time not so distant when we had all these freedoms

We took them for granted

We lost all our chances

No one fought back

We laid on our @sses

Lost in our cable

Food on the table

Blind to the fact

That we are all able

To make a decision

Escape from this prison

All we need now is a dream and a vision

The cost of feeding the world is less than waging war

Yet we prefer to spend money on weapons instead of helping the poor

You can camp out for toys and black Friday sales

But do it at a park and camp out in jail

So what do you do when they're coming for you?

Do you lie on your back or put on your shoes?

Run for the hills deep in the night

be a symbol for truth...a beacon of light!

But it's hard to shine when they cover your ember

while people are chanting the 5th of November

So remember the cause and remember the reasons

fighting for rights should never be treason

I guess its true; everything has its season

but little by little we’re losing our freedoms

You never think it’ll happen to you

cause you're only aware of what you see in the news

look what she did,look what he did

look at those stars adopting these kids

look over here,look over there

Got your attention? Now stay in your chair!

It's easy to distract and they know this for certain

just,pay no attention to the man behind the curtain

I’ve never been one to believe in conspiracies

But we’ve gotten soft with our responsibilities

Of questioning the facts for the sake of our liberties

Instead we get lost in our day to day activities.

They have us believing that we have to change our ways

No longer Merry Christmas,it’s now Happy Holidays

We give a little here and we give a little there

And before we even know it we’ll have nothing left to spare

So what do you do when they’re coming for you?

When morals and values are nothing but abused

It’s time to start a new revolution

where violence and hate is NOT a solution

but what can you do when they allow institutions

to contaminate the world with corporate pollution?

leaders consumed by the price of their greed

while people are hungry and full of disease

we have people accusing the smallest percent

as if that’s gonna make the smallest of dents

global change,it begins with ourselves

stop blaming other people and start with yourself

You have to work hard if you want to succeed

you have to be better,you have to believe

Reap what you sow,expand what you know

on a rolling rock moss never grows

if you’re not moving fast I’ll settle for slow

but never stop moving like water you’ll flow

So take a step back and realize your role

Before you dig yourself into an even deeper hole

Stop blaming others for your lack of ambition

Lets’ start a world with a brand new tradition

One full of honor and moral conviction

And if that’s not enough then heed my prediction

We’re gonna be lost in a world of restrictions

A mass reproduction of global submission

So start with yourself and become the solution

That’s how you start a real revolution

We need to understand our own evolution

Before we give in to the final conclusion

So remember the cause and remember the reasons

But don’t let our freedoms be gone with the season…

New Year, New You, New Me!

Happy New Year!!! So, here we are at week 2 of 2012.  The New Years Resolutions are still ringing and all the buzz about this being an epic year is still fresh.  This year is a special one for many because there has been so much talk of the Mayan calendar ending on December 21st of the year 2012, then there is the Zombie Apocalypse, the presidential elections, the collapse of the American Dollar and much more.  Quite an exciting year of uncertainties to look forward to.  If you want to look at it this way, it could be the end of the world as we know it, so live it up right?! HAHA!  


I have my own perspective on 2012.  I, too, have decided to begin anew.  2011 marked the end of my old life and I even got a tattoo to mark a new beginning.  The tattoo is a key and it symbolizes my choice to remain open and willing to change.  I got it on my arm, very visible, to remind myself to leave behind the old destructive habits, worries, doubts and fears of having to live up to anybody's expectations.  Jesus died on a cross so that all of that stuff would be gone, so leaving it around in my thought closet is just nonsense....finished! 2012 means renewing my spiritual vows, so to speak. My key is heart-shaped.  I am now experiencing life through the filter of love and teaching others about this awesome opportunity.  With this key, I embrace God's plan and allow Him to open new doors.  It is all about FAITH...my commitment to really "Let Go and Let God."  My key, is mainly a celebration in appreciation for the Spirit of God which is alive in me. 

John 14: ¹² Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. ¹³ And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. ¹⁴ You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.   ¹⁵ “If you love me, keep my commands. ¹⁶ And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever— ¹⁷ the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be^[c] in you. ¹⁸ I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. ¹⁹ Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live. ²⁰ On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. ²¹ Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”
                                                                    
^{John 15: 9} “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. ¹⁰ If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. ¹¹ I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. ¹² My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. ¹³ Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. ¹⁴ You are my friends if you do what I command. ¹⁵ I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. ¹⁶ You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you. ¹⁷ This is my command: Love each other.
                                                                                                             Jesus



The world will have you believe that The Bible is too this or too that...complicated, harsh, boring, false, controlling, blah blah blah!  I know that it can be if you believe it is so.  But, if you open your heart, silence your thoughts and basically, get out of the way...it is pure nourishment for your Spirit.  I am aware of all the excuses that one could use for not giving it a chance, including the one where you tell yourself you already gave it a chance and it didn't work.  My previous excuses will probably outnumber yours lol.  If it changed a person like me, believe me, it can and will blow your mind...but only if you let it.  Still not convinced?!  No problem.  Just know that you are reading these words for a reason.   Go ahead and read the words of Jesus again.  Don't let the hypocrites of the world convince you that religion is the same as faith.  I know there are many Christians that are misrepresentations of Christ.  Don't miss out on Heaven because you are basing your understanding of The Bible on a picture that has been painted for you by a "religionist" or the rest of the world.  Jesus himself was the opposite of the "religionists" of his time.  Just saying, find out for yourself! Give your heart to God and experience true love and true freedom.  Don't let anybody sell you a counterfeit spirituality. If you want the key, it's free.  And if you want to talk to someone who won't judge you, won't condemn you, will listen to your perspective and will love you just the way you are...call me, write me, message me, text me, you get the point! Don't hesitate, this message is for you and you know it.  THIS IS MY YEAR...WOOOHOOO!  IS THIS YOUR YEAR?! CLAIM IT AND RECEIVE IT!  
I love you guys!
