You Don't Make A Choice
You don't make a choice,
The choice will make you.
Give you a character or brake you into two.
If you face your challenges calmly with an open mind
Knowing that you attracted that kind,
Then you are the only one who can solve it,
When you must, you'll find the answer, you'll have the wit.
If you look for others to fix it for you,
You get into a deeper problem, no matter after what you do.
So, solve your own problem little or big, face life bravely,
Sooner or later you find the way to live easily and happily.

Wishes
Humanity always wishing for another thing
As in winter for coming of the spring.
Summer they are tired of the heat,
Or when it rains they want to stop the beat.
Always praying (begging) for peace or for the ill,
More money when they blow theirs to cover their bill.
Always something what they don't have yet,
Seldom appreciating the blessings or the beautiful sunset.
These wishes are built into every mind,
Because that is life when we progress without bind.
We cannot stop the flow, we must move forward, just go,
Only God knows where it leads, not for us to know.
We think we can help others, we try and try,
In reality each of us caused his/her problems without knowing why.
Then, we ourselves have to solve the challenge, the problem,
God help us all; give us your wisdom, your best system.
In all these years of my life time
Learned something very important, always have to face the chime.
No matter what happens, do not oppose, calmly go with the flow,
Do your best, solve the problem, if any need solving but know.
Nobody is perfect in this moment,
We are all in a school for our enlightenment.
When we understand the law of Cause and Effect,
If problem comes up we'll be able to overcome the seeming defect.
So, this means nobody can help the other,
Nobody can play god and be a redeemer,
Only we can help ourselves,
Face our own woes, trust and believe
What we really need, we'll achieve.

Our Problems
We often think our problems
are much bigger than they are,
in reality we only make them seem that way.
We worry sometimes over nothing
never figuring they will come out
all right in the end,
but normally they do.
A human fatality I’m afraid
that makes us worry over nothing.
We look at the negative side of our problems
instead of taking a positive view.
We tell ourselves the problem
is an insurmountable kind
that we will never be able
to solve it at anytime.
What we should be telling ourselves
is that every problem has a solution,
and if we take our time we will find it
and the problem will go away.

The Yellow Brick Road of Life
Yellow means wisdom, bricks are challenges,
Getting off the yellow road is getting into problems, open spaces.
At the end of the yellow road we find what we always looked for,
The truth, the power is within us, not in any counselor.
We have to step through all the yellow bricks,
Solve each challenges, find wisdom, & never believe in the statistics.
Go through all problems, if we solve them well, we become wiser,
Weakling no longer, better, healthier, richer and stronger.
If we fall out of the yellow brick road we loose time,
Running away from life, stagnate, get into grime.
Some of us makes it back and learns more wisdom,
Some withers away in sickness, alcohol, drugs and do not blossom.
However, if we get to the end and we find the answer,
We'll continue on the yellow brick road as a seasoned traveler.
We'll find wisdom to face life and find true happiness,
By calling everything 'good', all turns into real success.

All You Need
oh lord it's another day; nothing seemed to go my way
and i know that i can't complain
cause you've been so good to me
but here i am burdened again,
and i can't seem to find my friend
whose name is hope and i can't pretend that i'm not weary so
(why does it always seem that i) keep losin,
no matter what i'm doin
(all i want to do is live this life)
so i'm prayin then i hear you sayin
don't look no further cause i'm all you need
no matter the problem the answer's in me
i'll give you courage and i'll give you peace
when you get tired you can lean on me
oh it's hard to understand, that there is a master plan
that he's got our life in his hands and there is reason
and a time and season, to everything that comes along
though it seems all faith is gone, just keep on believing
and you'll hear him say to you
don't look no further cause i'm all you need
no matter the problem the answer's in me
i'll give you courage and i'll give you peace
when you get tired you can lean on me
while you're hesitating, know that the lord is waiting
instead of all this worrying and wondering
here's what you should do
know he'll see you through,
he cares for you and you should know
he'll never let you go
don't look no further cause i'm all you need
no matter the problem the answer's in me
i'll give you courage and i'll give you peace
when you get tired you can lean on me
don't look no further cause i'm all you need
no matter the problem the answer's in me
i'll give you courage and i'll give you peace
when you get tired you can lean on me

The Big Problem....
There is this BIG PROBLEM
WE decided not to talk about it
We think that that problem must solve itself
Auto-resolution
So day and night the problem stays there
Like a drunkard in the room
Vomiting
To every nook of the house
The house
That smells like fucking
Shit
But that problem is never considered a problem
There is a room for it to stay
And it can stay
It cannot consume us
It has no mouth and so it has no teeth
It has no tongue it cannot say a word
It stays there like a piece of art
And we begin to appreciate it
Like a piece of rock
Unchanged in the middle of the living room
We eat lunch there
They prepare nice dinners
We drink red wine
We munch chocolates
And sweet berries
The problem stays but it cannot nag us
Because we can pretend
That it is a brother
That we cannot junk but only love
And keep as part of the
Company
There is still this problem
And it did not solve itself
We live by this problem and this problem lives with us
Symbiosis
And so now
What is the problem? Is this a problem after all these years?
It is not anymore
We have learned that it is not a problem anymore
We die soon
And it shall perhaps disappear
Shall it weep over our departure?
That is its problem.

I Got A Problem
I got a problem I cant explain
Its hard to solve it, I cant lose face
They all try to help me, but I cant see the light.
Me and my shadow are so in despair
cause we keep hurtin someone who cares
Every time we talk about it I break out in a cold sweat
There must be some way outta here, but I cant find it yet.
I got a problem thats so intense
I try to fight it, but theres no defense.
Every time we talk about it I break out in a cold sweat
There must be some way outta here, but I cant find it yet.
I got a problem, I got a problem
I got a problem, I got a problem
Every time we talk about it I break out in a cold sweat.

Jimmy
Jimmy
It started out with a few misfortunes
His daddy ran off with some broad from the motown
When momma said we're leavin tomorrow
Jimmy already had his things together
So many days of thinking of the past
The girl he left behind and hangin out in the
free streets
Somehow Jimmy had survived his reflections
The broken glass in his hands, a noose before him
Said he did it before
He's gonna do it again
Give him a fix and a bottle and he won't complain
Until he's blue in the face
Jimmy's the leader of a losin' race
Hey Jimmy did you learn your lesson
You always know what you were missin'
Hey Jimmy did you solve the problem
Just a kid with no direction
Some people say it was fright that drove him
But Jimmy knows who's really scared of difference
The whipping boy won't take his beating
It only left them alone to their thinking
Of how he knew what they could never know
And he would live and learn to be himself
through his mistakes
Watch and laugh, pretend they were okay
Waiting for things to change is just another day
Said he did it before
He's gonna do it again
Give him a fix or a bottle and he won't complain
Until he's blue in the face
Jimmy's the leader of a losing race
Hey Jimmy did you learn your lesson
You always knew what you were missin'
Hey Jimmy did you solve the problem
Just a kid with no direction
Hey Jimmy don't you walk away
We'll look at life according to me
You're my life support auto biography
Hey Jimmy take a look inside
Let's take a chance, enjoy the ride
Impressions don't die
No one knew your story
Hey Jimmy did you learn you lesson
You always knew what you were missin' (Jimmy)
Hey Jimmy did you solve the problem
Just a kid with no direction (Jimmy)
Hey Jimmy did you learn your lesson
You always knew what you were missin' (Jimmy)
Hey Jimmy did you solve the problem
Just a kid with no direction (Jimmy)
Hey Jimmy now your free

Fit To Be Tied
What a problem, you know he's fit to be tied
He tried to solve it, that was his only crime
Well, I ain't got no inhibitions
And my daddy gets left, alright
The time for him to make the decision
If this is still the place, I'm gonna spend the night
He says, "get out, your no son of mine"
What a problem, you know he's fit to be tied
You don't understand, he thinks he's always right
He says, your lust is the toy of confliction
And you think you got fun all the time
In school, you ain't got no direction
He thinks I'm just a kid that ain't got no mind
I say, "no way are you gonna run my life"
What a problem, you know he's fit to be tied
On my way, he pushed me over the line
What a problem, I'm only one of a kind
He says, "get out, your no son of mine"
I say, "no way are you gonna run my life"
Packed my bags, won't even say good-bye
I'll show you a thing or two, you know I've got my pride
What a problem, you know he's fit to be tied

Hell Song
Everybodys got their problems
Everybody says the same things to you
Its just a matter how you solve them
And knowing how to change the things youve been through
I fear Ive come to realize
How fast life can be compromised
Stand back to see whats going on
I cant believe this happened to you, this happened to you
Its just a problem that were faced with
Am I not the only one that hates to standby
Complications headed first in this line
With all these pictures running through my mind
Knowing endless consequences
I feel so useless in this
Cant patch that back and as for me, I cant believe
[chorus:]
Part of me, wont agree
Cause I dont know if its for sure
Sunnenly, suddenly
I dont feel so insecure
Anymore
Everybodys got their problems
Everybody says the same things to you
Its just a matter how you solve them
What else are we supposed to do
[chorus x2]
(why do things that matter the most
Never end up cutting close
Now that I find out, it aint so bad
I dont think I knew what I had) [x2]

One Problem At A Time
No one person can solve
all the problems of the world,
but if we all united,
we could solve
one problem at a time.
If all countries of the world
could learn to trust one another,
instead of being suspicious of one another,
we could solve
one problem at a time.
If we could see no difference
within another person
because of their colour or their religion,
we could all unite
and start solving
one problem at a time.
Unfortunately, no one person can do it,
but one person can start it,
then collectively we can begin
to turn things around
and start solving
one problem at a time.

Without A Few Good Laughs A Day
Success is only really what does matter if you go by with what most people do say
But life it would surely be very boring without a few good laughs a day
If you cannot laugh you're in trouble some even find it hard to smile
There are people with heaps of money who feel living life scarce worth-while
One has to feel sympathy for them their gift of life they don't enjoy
When they buy presents for their young child they buy the most expensive toy
Yet their money cannot make them happy they live their lives burdened by care
It Doesn't mean you will be happy when you become a millionaire
The praises of the rich and famous so many feel happy to sing
But if money could make people happy then money would buy everything
Unhappiness some people are born with and 'tis something money cannot cure
But I'd rather be wealthy and unhappy than being poor and miserable though the choice is a poor one for sure
If money could solve all of our problems then our biggest problem would be small
But money cannot buy you happiness and that's the greatest gift of all.

An Awful Thing To Waste
So maybe you could do with a break
You've had about all you can take
You need to find somewhere you can run to
Somewhere a long way from here
Somewhere where the skies are all clear
Somewhere you can think all your thoughts through
It took a long time to make me understand
You gotta meet life and shake it by the hand
You gotta use your emotion
You talk a nice line to put your mind at ease
You want to sit back and count your memories
But that's no solution
I don't want to harp about it
But what you gonna do about it?
Look at how you're set in your ways
You used to be so willing to face
Any find of problem before you
Life is not as long as you think
Open up your mind and you'll see
Don't destroy yourself I implore you
You've got a fine wife, a perfect family
You had it all planned to live so carefully
But where does it get you
They say the mind is an awful thing to waste
And that's a fact that you must come to face
What more can I tell you?

What İs Life?
life is a blank, fill it.
life is a problem, face it.
life is an equation, balance it.
life is a sum, solve it.
life is an experience, go through it.
life is a challenge, accept it.
life is a load, carry it.
life is a ship, sail on it.
life is a question, answer it.
life is success, enjoy it.
life is a book, read it.
life is a game, win it.
life is a gift, receive it.
life is a prayer, chant it.
life is a pain, bear it.
life is a camera, so better face it with a smile.

To Make A Difference!
take your finger from the trigger,
lay down your gun...
you have a chance to make a difference....
make the right choice!
lower your hand, soften your voice,
let go of your anger...
you have a chance to make a difference...
make the right choice!
put down your checkbook, close the register,
do something you really feel....
you have a chance to make a difference....
make the right choice!
throw out your pill bottle and your pipe,
stand up and face life....
you have a chance to make a difference...
make the right choice!
turn off your tv and your computer,
get involved with someone in need....
you have a chance to make a difference....
make the right choice!
lay down your judgements and your pride,
see people as just people....
you have a chance to make a difference....
make the right choice!

Time is Irreverent.
Time, what is time in this vast universe?
Endless learning from problem to problem to those who can transverse.
It is not easy, and many fall out of the race,
We have to be strong and able to keep the pace.
What is before us? Nobody knows!
We just have to go on from one day to the next facing our woes.
We all have some kind of a problem
If we didn't, we couldn't be here on this earthly system.
There must be a reason somewhere,
No matter how rudely life is teaching us, we have to persevere.
Open our mind to understand the happenings
Then our life will be mostly calm and filled be blessings.
Believe that everything will work out well
Face your present problems like a hard shell.
Learn from it, then do not dwell on it anymore
You will see it disappears, giving you some rest to be ready,
For your next tormentor.
Never give up, Keep up to the last. You never know which is the last.

Cry a Little...
A cry is a word the heart can't say
A cry is a tear let down by pain
Caused by despondence and dismay
A cry that is left to flow in every vein
A cry from being hurt for no reason at all
A cry from being left behind
A cry from a drastic fall
After being the top and only there was to find
A cry from being ignored
A cry from being treated unfair
A cry to ask help from the Lord
Since he- the all mighty- will always be there
After so many cries
You start to realize
That crying is only a way to relieve the pain
But a cry does not solve the problem
........does not throw all your faults down the drain
A cry is let out to relieve the heart from words it cannot say
So the best thing to do is to cry a little
And solve the problem that’s been caused the very next day.

Life’s Problem
A grand puzzle is a problem of order,
Order may run out, the circle is round;
Gases seep into the breathing air,
Fulfilling me in every puzzling manner,
They require order to stop the spread of gas.
May you turn into use and generosity,
Killing me with kindness and love.
I request for genuine aid as a father
And sons shall solve and define.
We need the most beautiful children
To solve the problem of life.

Hell Or Heaven
Mama used to say to me
You can make your destiny
Keep your feet planted on the ground
You can always get it back
Make a castle from a one room shack
It's what you make of what you've found
Son you're gonna find out when you're older
There's always been the hand of God
Resting right there on your shoulder
Will it be hell or heaven on Earth
The choice is up to you
Look to the sky, the answer is clear
Are you gonna live life for all it's worth
Choose hell or heaven on Earth
If you live it right
There's nothing to fear
'Cause you'll find heaven right here
Saw a man the other day
Had it made in every way
Till his greed brought him down
He was blinded by the city lights
Now he shivers in the cold at night
Who will save the lifeguard
When he's about to drown
Will it be hell or heaven on Earth
The choice is up to you
Look to the sky, the answer is clear
Are you gonna live life for all it's worth
Choose hell or heaven on Earth
If you live it right
There's nothing to fear
'Cause you'll find heaven right here
You know you're gonna walk on through the fire
You know you're gonna feel the pain
You know you're gonna lose if you wanna win the game
And every time your heart is breakin'
And every time your faith is shaken
Just remember what mama said
Oh yeah
Hope when my time has come
I'm left enough to build upon
Ain't no one gonna say I didn't try
And here's why
Hell or heaven on Earth
The choice is up to you
Look to the sky, the answer is clear
Are you gonna live life for all it's worth
Choose hell or heaven on Earth
If you live it right
There's nothing to fear
'Cause you'll find heaven right here
You'll find heaven right here (x3)
