Settle Down My Boy
Settle down, an eat your peas and gravy, my boy
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Stop wasting all your time with running around the town
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Knuckle down and find a job and take some responsibility
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down

Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Look around for a wife to start a family, my boy
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Listen toy our father and hell tell you the same as me
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down

Dont say my head was empty and I had things to hide
And you better put something away for your old age
So settle down, settle down my boy settle down
Settle down, settle down my boy settle down uh huh huh

Everything about you is how I wanna be
Your freedom comes naturally
Everything about you resonates happiness
Now I won't settle for less
Give me all the peace and joy in your mind
Everything about you pains my envying
Your soul can't hate anything
Everything about you is so easy to love
They're watching you from above
Give me all the peace and joy in your mind

Perfect Peace
I ponder deeply in my mind
For thoughts of peace and how to find
It only comes from deep within
You cannot fake it or pretend
Real peace comes when your mind is at rest
Knowing through life you've given your best
Believing in a greater power than we
Holding no grudges, being totally free
Having no ill will against neighbor or kin
Knowing the peace maker is living within
Giving of self to help others in need
Looking for nothing in return for a deed
Being true to one's self no matter the price
It's better to give until it becomes sacrifice
If you want to feel that total release
Then try all of this and you know perfect peace

Happy Birthday Baby
My dearest Love
I wish today that you'll find complete peace within you're heart
I wish today that a sense of calm embraces you and comforts you
I wish today that you feel proud of who you are
I wish today that you will take a few minutes to reflect on what a wonderful person you are
and what you mean to others
I wish today that you will take a few minutes to reflect on your own specialness and your own kindness
I wish today that you will be surrounded with laughter and smiles
I wish today that you will be happy
I wish today that fond memories of family and friends will warm your heart
I wish today to be an extra special day for you
I wish today that your happiness will last until all things end
and lastly, I wish that in some small special way, you will be able to feel my presence with you, just knowing that I am here and that I am thinking of you
Happy Birthday Baby

Is Today the Day
Is today the day
we tell Satan flee
is today the day
we will be free
Is today the day
we curl and run
is today the day
we use that gun
Is today the day
much like before
Is today the day
to close the door
Is today the day
the walls come down
Is today the day
we will abound
Is today the day
we ask Jesus in
Is today the day
life begins again
Is today the day
we help a friend
is today the day
Will we let Him in

The Nature Of The Storm
Glare at the cloud
Guarded by fog and shroud
And see the storm will be here
Soon it will be quite near
Brace yourself my dear
And yet before
We have to be torn at the core
Torn to and fro, there will be a calm before a calm
A time where there shall be no qualm
And yet the calm is terrifying
The silence before war is maddening
It is not the nor consoling calm of peace
But a maddening roar of quiet
I fear the calm more than the storm because sometimes 'Not Knowing'
That's the worst

Settle Down
Album: Eternal (2001)
[Chorus]
Do you think you're ready
To settle down, settle down babe
Do you think you're ready
To settle down with me babe
Do you think you're ready
To settle down, settle down with me babe
Settle down with me, babe
Settle down
Would you like a house on the hill
Overlooking the ocean side
Tell me, would you like that baby
Or how about a high-rise apartment
In Manhattan on the east side
If that's what you need
I'm here to please
Won't you settle down with me, baby
[Chorus]
We could take a jet plane all the way to Spain
Just to buy you a wedding ring
Tell me, would you like that baby
Oh, talk to me girl
We could get married on Christmas day
On the shores of Montego Bay
If that's what you need
I'm here to please
Won't you settle down with me
If you're ready
Only if you're ready
To settle down, settle down babe
Tell me if you're ready, ready yeah
To settle down with me babe
Do you think you're ready
To settle down, settle down with me babe
Settle down, settle down
Settle down
I'm not trying to buy your love
Money ain't in it
You can't put a rpice on love
Tell me if I'm worthy of
Worthy of you're hand
Girl let's start making plans
You're shining like a star above
You're the light of my life
Oh girl, be my wife
Settle down baby
Oh but first
Do you think you're ready
To settle down, settle down babe
I wanna know if you're ready, tell me baby
To settle down with me babe
Do you think you're ready
To settle down, settle down with me babe
Settle down babe
Settle down
Ooh
oh, whoa
Oooh
No no no no no no no
Yeah yes
Oh settle down babe
Settle down
You tell me when you're ready
(I'm ready, I'm ready)
Do you think you're ready
(I, yes I am baby)
Please tell me
(You already know)
When you're ready
(Yes I'm ready)
Then We can settle down
(Settle down babe)
Settle down
(I'm ready)
I wanna know if you're ready
Oh wee, oh it feels like you're ready babe
I can tell if you're ready
We need to settle down babe
Settle down

I feasted upon my life today
I fell upon my life today

I frowned upon my life today
I flew upon my life today
I smoked upon my life today
I shitted upon my life today
I pissed upon my life today

I sneezed upon my life today
I sneaked upon my life today
I asked upon my life today

Fate vs Destiny
To find your true happiness tempt fate to discover your destiny.
You must hearken back to when real happiness was known
Remember its impact on your life
Opportunity knocks, open the door, you will see it coming.
You may be surprised to discover fate can mask your destiny.
Your fate and your destiny are not one in the same.
Your fate is what you settle for in life.
What you take as your life marches on day by day, an obligation to life.
Destiny is the gate you find at the end of the path you blaze
As you strive to attain life’s goal open the gate and find love,
Happiness and contentment; true peace of heart and mind.
Fate may leave you at destiny’s gate at the end of life.
Knowing only the travails of your battles to achieve life’s goal
Knowing not the sweetness of your victories.
The gate may not be open, leaving you empty
At the end of life's journey.
The path to your destiny is yours and yours alone
Ask yourself whether you wish to settle for your fate or…
Tempt your fate and discover the path.
The dark side of life; fear and self doubt can blur and cover the path.
Not always seen in the clear; hidden in your memory
Or on the full plate before you the path is always there.
Those who have known the depth of their love, the strength of their spirit,
Will find a guiding light illuminates their path.
In these qualities of character you will discover your true self
And the key to unlock the gate.
You will recognize the guide of your light.
The choice is yours, settle for fate or follow the light,
Find the key, unlock the gate … discover your destiny.

Emotions and Your Healh.
When your mind is at peace,
You have a calm, interesting life in this race.
Doing things, enjoy all, learn from all,
So, your body is healthy, well and happy and you don't fall.
However, if your thinking is about arguments, anger or fight,
You'll pick up the worst food combination, which is not right.
So, your whole body follows & you loose your balance,
Mind will show the way to the body with the wrong guidance.
If you crave strongly about happiness from the past,
Or you are greedy, you attract diabetes fast.
If you are angry for every dropp of a hat,
Your heart will suffer from that.
If you want to win anything real bad,
Your lungs will suffer and get sad.
If you hate others, thinking, they are all wrong,
Your liver will not sing a happy song.
Even, if you regret strongly something from your past,
That is the reason to attract cancer in your forecast.
The past is gone, the future is not here yet,
How you think today, surely tomorrow you will get.
However, if you make peace with your world,
What you created anyway, knowing or not,
Your life on this Earth will be a happy plot.
You will go from one adventure to the other,
On the ship of life you will be a healthy, happy passenger.
Just go on, believe that everything is necessary for your evolving.

A Costly Product Peace Is!
Dying and living we live life to fulfil life destiny here;
Peace has become costly product as wars are frequent.
Sans stability and peace can development be possible
To enhance quality of life to live better than before?
With the destruction of trees, farms, forests for urbanization
And industrialisailton peace has gone to pieces everywhere
By increase of population, pollution, noise, violence and wars!
Thereby with the increase of diseases, economic crises and
World recession peace of mind of all men too has gone away!
Diversion to get peace of mind man seeks the aids of drugs,
Indulges in short cut routes to accrue money to meet out
Both ends of demand and supply to manage day today life!
Thereby falls man into the abyss of crimes endless not knowing
The way out of entanglements till the end and dies uncared!
By unity, reason and cooperation many obstacles can be cleared;
But adherence to wrong policies and circles keep all in troubles!

I love the word 'calm
I love the word ‘calm’
‘The sea lies calm tonight’
‘Ne’er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!
‘And calm of mind, all passion spent’
I love the word ‘calm’
And the feeling of peace,
And the joy in quiet,
And the sense of all things well,
It gives.

First Time I See
Today, I finally see, has never happened before!
when clock strikes midnight, this day shall never happen again not after a score
of years of anymore! today is done, anyone who dislikes
this fact of life, must learn to live in the NOW
learn to not always wonder why it is or even how
this our only chance to live today, for it will never
come again ever
this is our one shot
at one day for our lives! may be this one shot is all we got maybe its the last
someone on this today might die! !
as another just begins life or a bird learns to fly
its quite funny to see
how everything is connected to everything else
and I to it, we are one
but knowing we are one, one may ask why?
how can one be one with everything have they won?
over reality have they begun to die?
no i say it is the LORD inside of us that connects us all!
we are connected everything and everyone connected in that he will not fall
not fail to love all: D

This World Today
Maurice white, wade flemmons & don whitehead
In this new world
The world of today
Now you might think
That the world has changed
But boy meets girl
Same as before
And they vow their love forever more
In this world today.
In this new world
Of troubled times
Just you look back
And Im sure youll find
Man fighting man
For no cause at all
And though it is wrong
The fighting goes on
In this world today.
Why do you say
Were in a different bag
When all the things you did
Were just as bad.
In this new world
Of suffering
Love, peace of mind
Should be our thing
Let man join hands
The old and the young
And let every heart
Now beat as one
In this world today.
Love, peace of mind should be our thing
Love, peace of mind should be our thing
Love, peace of mind should be our thing.

Blue Chalk Crosses
A vision of blue chalk crosses
such as at Arlington Cemetery..
scrawled on a blackboard..
they can still be erased..
peace begins with you
peace begins with me
peace in thought word
and deed
in prayers
by hearts freed..
peace at the end of our forks
peace at the end of our tongues

Tribute to The Garcia Family
Today your life begins all over again,
Today you have the opportunity to be happy in it,
Today you shall experience love, and feel the warmth
Of everyone who loves you more than yesterday.
Today you can choose what to carry with you and what
To leave behind.
Today you have to live your life as you know best.
For today is Golden as today is here, and you are here
To give and accept the love that is deserving.
Today is the culmination of every day past and future too,
For it will be what ever you decide to make it do,
Therefore know the truth, that there is someone out there
That is thinking and loving you.

Mr. And Mrs. James Akpan II
Of your spiritual inner-self,
Of my spiritual inner-self,
But, i am made among the people of this earth!
And, wisdom is my first priority;
However, Mrs. Akpan will still remember her words towards me on the day of the contract.
This muse of life is now being elevated with the peace of the mind,
These works of joy are now being seen among you all!
With the indications of love from my mind to influence you;
And like the road leading to the house of the royal elephant,
But, i am what i am today with the sweet muse of life.
Wisdom leads to great success! !
back in the days, and to remember this journey on the very hard road;
But, with the muse of my roots in mind to deliver my works,
However, i am what i am today with the sweet muse of life.
Peace and joy to the Akpan family whom i met some years ago in Lagos (Nigeria) !
For, my heart will always bring out peace and joy to all with my works;
And my mouth shall always speak out wisdom to teach many,
However, i am what i am today with much experiences in life.

Merciful
To roar like a lion,
To fight like a bull,
To move like a tortise,
To play like a man,
To sleep like a sheep,
To care like a woman,
But do not hide your love to the one you care for;
Because, the woman brought forth the baby.
Knowing her love is better than war,
Knowing her peace is better than hate,
Knowing her mind is better than lies,
But the smell of her sweet taste is all that you need.
Think twice before you throw a stone into the market place,
For it may easily hit someone you know;
And do not eat the bread of idleness.
Before your womb was closed and now it is opened,
Today you have achild to swing on with your life.
So quench my heart with your love and,
refine my mind with your peace;
Because, every house is filled with hatred.
Beware of dogs and do not destroy the potter's field,
And let your love so teach others with a smile;
For your innerself is the beginning of everything.
The Ruler is merciful and you have to be mercuful at all times,
For we do have histories of our times.
To roar like a lion and to learn like a sheep,
Keep yourself away from that which is negative;
And gain the land by being merciful to all.

My Would-Be Savior
You try and fill my mind with doubt
Say I've forgotten who I am
But maybe you've forgotten how to understand.... so
Have your whispers, I excused myself too soon
Antisocial, maybe yes and maybe you
Two days after the flood begins to settle down
I sit alone in a room full of friends
My would-be savior slips something into my mouth.... for kicks
You live a life without regret
Bend a truth until it breaks
I thought I'd seen you at your best
But my mistake.... so
Have your whispers, I excused myself too soon
Antisocial, maybe yes and maybe you
Two days after the flood begins to settle down
I sit alone in a room full of friends
My would-be savior slips something into my mouth.... for kicks
You're sorry, yes you are
But what do you know?
You'll have to think this through on your own
Tries to play it safe
Wants to be afraid
Cannot do the same
Push it away
You try and fill my mind with doubt
Say I've forgotten who I am
But maybe you've forgotten how to understand.... so
Have your whispers, I excused myself too soon
Antisocial, maybe yes and maybe you
Two days after the flood begins to settle down
I sit alone in a room full of friends
My would-be savior slips something into my mouth.... for kicks
Tries to play it safe
Wants to be afraid
Cannot do the same
Push it away
