October 20th, 2010-"The World's Gone Mad!"

     "The world's gone mad.  Good turning bad.  Man against man.  Everything is getting banned.  Nowhere to run.  Nowhere to hide.  You're your only guide.  Black's against whites.  That really bites.  Right against wrong.  Where do I belong?  I feel like crying.  Maybe even lying.  Too much to take!  Please stop!  For God's sake!  Native blood in all of us.  Why only certain prejudice.  Kids getting beat, living in the streets.  Drugs in school.  You know that ain't cool.  Dirt in the air.  Who's gonna care?  Love or hate?  It's a debate."



     This is just part of a song that I wrote over a decade ago.  I think that I was actually still in high school at the time.  I have written a lot of songs over the years.  This one really isn't my usual stuff.  Most of the songs that I write are love songs.  I am not sure how I came up with this, but I did so I wrote it down.  I guess it really doesn't fit with my 'Sunshine and a Basket Full of Daisies' title of my blog, but I thought I would write it down anyway.  It does make you think and sometimes thinking can be a good thing.  It sometimes helps a little light to go off in your head that makes you say 'Hey, I want to do better.  I want to be a better person.  I want to make something of myself.  Etc. Etc.'  Maybe these lyrics will do something good for you.  I hope you all have a great night.  Take care and God bless!

Love,
