because they have been waging a war against life
a war against peace
a war against love
a spiritual war
against the black and the poor
indigenous tribes
against the brown
against women
against the east
against culture
against thought
WE ARE AT WAR
through the lawyers and police
through what you see on TV
WE ARE AT WAR
with the CIA and FBI
who murdered Martin Luther King
WE ARE AT WAR
with a set of values that don't represent me
the army the navy
the FCC - yes every commercial that you've ever seen
is an act of war,
and its hard to see when your trapped in concrete
but the 3rd world only exists because of the 1st -
and that's you and me,
and still theres death and tourture
and orphaned Iraqis'
WE ARE AT WAR
with our souls christianity
the KKK religious fanatical
red white and blue slaves,
the war that we wage
against the earth as it quakes,
yes every time that you drive
down the street its, an act of war
and every time you turn on the heat,
its an act of war
eat fruit from Costa Rica
buy cloths from Taiwan
hear about Alaskan Pipeline
and do nothing to stop them
Monsanto corporate buy in produce
act of terror
US is terrorist
Monarch butterflies are disappearing, yes
200 species each go extinct every single day
WE ARE AT WAR
with the global elite
the president dont speak for me
politician never will
i will never be
spoken for
un-american Human
I AM AT WAR
with all that's failing humanity
soon to be erased from planet, by hate
the insanity of society not real
I AM AT WAR
and i will never forget
that love is the cause
and i wont neglect doing whats right
cause its easier to have fun and forget
that
WE ARE AT WAR

Back In The Day
Back before the pound sign became a hash tag
and I Phones, before Mac Books, and Facebook
before music went digital and there was 800 channels on TV
Yes back when you had to rewind the answering machine to
listen to your messages and page your dude to get a bag
of weed,
Back before electronic cigarettes and GPS navigation systems,
before LOL, EDM, BRB, LMFAO and other dumb ass
abbreviations abbreviated your ability to think!
Yes back when gas was 89 cents a gallon and Clinton was
getting his dick sucked by Monica Lewinsky,
Yes back when MS-DOS was your operating system and
Transformers was a cartoon, back when there were pay
phones in front of every store instead of Red Box -
Yes back before any one knew Obama even existed,
before they gentrified Harlem, Asbury Park, Fort Greene,
before reality TV, openly rigged elections, global warming
and tweets
Yes back when big screen TV's weren't flat but big and round
and fat in the back
Yes back before social media destroyed a generations soul
and social skill, back before i had bills, back before technology
killed the art of face to face conversation, and that feeling of
waiting to speak for weeks until we actually meet again and see
each other, in the real physical flesh form,
back before texting mid conversation was the norm
Yes, a simpler time not so far away
Today's got me wishin
It was back in the day...

I Want Love
I dont wanna hustle no more
dont wanna work any more
use money
I dont want part in systems or economies
or hierarchy division capitalist bullshit
Dont wanna buy groceries
pay electric coal plant
water filtration tap blast
cap chlorinated well
poison game, cars and fumes
enslaved days of rage
dont want america
or countries or borders or boundries
Dont wanna wear clothes
hold back emotions
use time, calenders
religious philosophies, esoteric agenda's
languages thought patterns
and traps of ideologies
isms schisms and taking myself way too seriously
I want to watch Babylon fall!
I want the power grids to fail
electricity to end, and the spirit
of love and understanding to prevail!
I want the censorship and
tradition of structure to leave our
collective consciousness!
I want love!
I want love!
I want love!
