Our dependency makes slaves out of us, especially if this dependency is a dependency of our self-esteem. If you need encouragement, praise, pats on the back from everybody, then you make everybody your judge.

Dependency is death to initiative, to risk-taking and opportunity. It's time to stop the spread of government dependency and fight it like the poison it is.

Warped
My tendency
for dependency
Is offending me
It's upending me
I'm pretending see
To be strong and free
From my dependency
It's warping me
So much love
So rare to dare
Afraid of
Ever being there
Take me home
I need repair
Take me please
To anywhere
CHORUS:
Descend
all the way
all the way
Everyday
Warped
and scared
Of
being
there
Descended from
Demented men
Struggle with
The art of Zen
Please don't look
Too close at me
You might not like
What you see
CHORUS
Night craving
Sends me crawling oh
Beg for mercy
Does it show
A vacancy
That's full of holes
Hold me please
I'm feeling cold
CHORUS

If our country is serious about reducing our dependency on foreign oil, we need to get serious about mobilizing the infrastructure necessary to distribute and dispense the next generation of fuels.

From my own being, and from the dependency I find in myself and my ideas, I do, by an act of reason, necessarily infer the existence of a God, and of all created things in the mind of God.

Bad Energy
Nothing seems to please!
And you are critical of everyone...
And everything you see.
And you want to play the blame game.
With a touch of hide-and-seek...
With your parents, the friends left you have
And me!
But I am not having that bad energy.
Donated and/or given freely.
I don't accept!
I bid you and your bitterness goodbye!
I am not going to have my peace of mind
Jeopardized.
Nor confined by your lack of self esteem,
And dependency you have had no problem finding!
I don't need that!
And I don't need you!
What I need is clear vision...
And someone not on a scavenger hunt,
With darkness to fill a mind
On a funk ride in pursuit!
And you are on the prowl
To spook my good!
You 'dim' my light!
You wish to ignite and spark my fuse!
You ain't gon' do that.
Get back!
Subtract yourself,
Now!

With gas prices nationally, and especially in our area, increasingly on the rise, it is more crucial then ever that we take steps to diversify our energy sources and reduce our dependency on foreign oil.
We have witnessed the terrible increases in the incidence of alcoholism, the advent of drug dependency, the protests, marches, strikes and human alienation.

Dependency On Others
All their problems began,
When a belief of being better than others...
Developed in the hiding from their own insecurities.
And their dependency on others,
Has become an obvious revelation.
How great can one leeching to feed 'and' deceive...
Be?

Wean And Break
In places,
Where most minds of people are stuck.
As if certain parts of their bodies,
Have been encased in braces.
With an aging done,
But no growing up is faced by anyone.
So much of what an adult does,
That goes sight unseen...
Is missed by the children.
And that which the children aren't made aware,
Reflects the despair.
In an uncaring, despair sharing environment.
And dependency becomes to be,
A difficult habit...
To wean and break away,
One's taste of it.
Ask any addict who has tried to resist.
In places,
Where most minds of people are stuck.
As if certain parts of their bodies,

But no growing up is faced by anyone.

To wean and break away,
One's taste of it.
Ask any addict who has tried to resist.

South Vietnam had to be built from scratch and, from the very beginning, depended far too much on the Western superpowers. As in the case of a person on public welfare, this dependency, which became greater with each day, was quite difficult to shake.

Senility
Dependency,
Age,
Senility;
Value your own life and put things right,
And always do whart is right in your neighbourhood.
A bringht and beautiful summer morning,
And to be at work as usual;
But let me in if i have honour in your eyes,
And like a tender fat calf.

On the one hand we have got to ask, are there some areas of universal benefits that are no longer affordable? But on the other hand let us look at the issue of dependency where we have trapped people in poverty through the extent of welfare that they have.
