Healing the blind, I promise to let the sun in,
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drum, and
Jump when they tell us that they wanna see jumping,
Fuck that I wanna see some fists pumping.
Risk something, take back what's yours.
Say something that you know they might attack you for,
Cause I'm sick of being treated like I have before,
Like it's stupid standing for what I'm standing for.
Like this war's really just a different brand of war,
Like it doesn't cater the rich and abandon poor.
Like they understand you in the back of the jet,
When you can't put gas in your tank.
These fuckers are laughing their way to the bank and cashing the check,
Asking you to have compassion and have some respect.
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way,
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay.
And the rest of the world watching at the end of the day,
In their living room laughing like "what did he say?".
AMEN
AMEN
In my living room watching but I am not laughing,
Cause when it gets tense I know what might happen.
World is cold the bold men take action.
Have to react or get blown into fractions.
Ten years old it's something to see
Another kid my age drugged under a jeep.
Taken and bound and found later under a tree,
I wonder if he had thought the next one could be me.
Do you see the soldiers they're out today?
They brush the dust from bullet proof vests away.
It's ironic at times like this you pray,
But a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday.
There's bombs in the buses, bikes, roads
Inside your market, your shops, your clothes.
My dad he's got a lot of fear I know,
But enough pride inside not to let that show.
My brother had a book he would hold with pride,
A little red cover with a broken spine.
On the back, he hand-wrote a quote inside,
WHEN THE RICH WAGE WAR IT'S THE POOR WHO DIE..
Meanwhile, the leader just talks away.
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay.
And the rest of the world, watching at the end of the day,
both scared and angry, like "what did he say?".
AMEN

I listen to absolutely everything but that classical and jazz crap...don't like elevator music. Just a few favorites: Breaking Benjamin, Staind, Ciara, Disturbed, Mudvayne, Seether, Korn, Crossfade, Dierks Bentley, Tim McGraw, Backstreet Boys, Hoobastank, Killswitch Engage, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, Rob Thomas, Live, Yung Joc, P. Diddy (shutup ass), Daughtry, Three Days Grace, Linkin Park, BLS, Evanescence, and so on...
I hardly ever get to watch movies, but when I do it usually consists of something like Miss Spider, Dora the Explorer, Sesame Street, LazyTown and the rest of that good ol' kid shit.
Anything on MSNBC, Court TV, Spike, The History Channel, or A&E. Big into documentaries, specifically those relating to criminals or forensics.
If it's not my college books, then usually its a good Stephen King or something similar....I love reading books, I read several a month.
