Just As Tasty As the Pudding
Raise the bar!
Remove the 'settled-for-less' distresses,
And lift those spirits up!
In your hand is a cup you know remains half full...
'Too much' will never be enough,
When your cup is lifted up!
Rushing to supply with every wish...
You hold inside.
You've got the stuff,
Dismiss the fluff and accept His flow.
Raise the bar!
Congratulate your naysayers with prayers,
Extended.
If it wasn't for them your time would be theirs!
They did not win...you did.
And will again.
You could blow to them kisses...
Or wish them well with wellwishes.
This is not their discovery,
To know this fulfillment in collective recovery.
You are less on their minds than they are on yours.
Question not the opened doors awaiting.
These moments that come are not for one debating,
Outcomes before they are done.
When it comes into mind...
Dance with it time after time,
Until your steps have been mastered!
Raise the bar...
Lift it unassisted and persist it can be done.
Glisten as if Sun beams on you.
Demeaning shadowed scenes will seem to wither away.
New views due break through,
To solidify what for you is true..
And the proof is as tasty as the pudding.
Raise the bar and be lifted.
Something inside of you,
Begins to free a forgiveness that takes flight!
And this uplifting bar raised,
Restores ambitions to shine...
Whenever the mind finds it dines
Under the comfort of cloud cover.
Raise the bar...
Be lifted where you are,
And do it!
Stop smothering your joy,
Using decoys attracting quacks!

Gonna Raise Hell
Words and music by rick nielsen
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Ambition? ha!
If all Ive heard is true,
Theres nothin much I can do
To change the world, its irreversible.
But in what it lacks,
Its got a taste that smacks of somethin irresistable.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Submission? yes!
Now I wont name names, and a secrets a secret,
But a hints a hint or a clue.
You really wanna know, you really wanna go,
Theres only two things you got to do.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Mother, mother.
Mother, mother.
Mother, mother.
My mission? ah, yes!
Everybody hear? everybody here,
Its a fate I all agree.
Sometimes you win, I never lose,
To me its no mystery.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.

Final Straw
As I raise my head to broadcast my objection
As your latest triumph draws the final straw
Who died and lifted you up to perfection?
And what silenced me is written into law.
I can't believe where circumstance has thrown me
And I turn my head away
If I look I'm not sure that I could face you.
Not again. not today. not today.
If hatred makes a play on me tomorrow
And forgiveness takes a back seat to revenge
There's a hurt down deep that has not been corrected.
There's a voice in me that says you will not win.
And if I ignore the voice inside,
Raise a half glass to my home.
But it's there that I am most afraid,
And forgetting doesn't hold. it doesn't hold.
Now I don't believe and I never did
That two wrongs make a right.
If the world were filled with the likes of you
Then I'm putting up a fight. I'm putting up a fight.
Putting up a fight. make it right. make it right.
Now love cannot be called into question.
Forgiveness is the only hope I hold.
And love- love will be my strongest weapon.
I do believe that I am not alone.
For this fear will not destroy me.
And the tears that have been shed
It's knowing now where I am weakest
And the voice in my head. in my head.
Then I raise my voice up higher
And I look you in the eye
And I offer love with one condition.
With conviction, tell me why.
Tell me why.
Tell me why.
Look me in the eye.
Tell me why.

Bonaparte Raise On Heap Of Bones Apart!
One NAPOLEON BONAPARTE,
Raise above all,
Shattering million people's bones apart!
One Hitler can raise above all,
On foolishness of millions of butlers
One Christ can raise above all,
If can raise above million thrusts
of hunger, lust and thirst!
One Buddha can raise,
If he can remain completely Shuddha
One Ashoka can raise to become Ashoka, only on
The heap of million HEART'S shoka!
One love symbol Taj Mahal can raise only on tombless graves millions of love!
One Shankara can raise,
Killing one's Ahankara!
One Vivekananda can raise,
Finding the roots of Viveka and Ananda!
One SOUL can raise,
Only if can raise above
All that is untrue and thoughts that are foul!

Inside
Take your time take all your time baby
C'mon
Take your time take it anytime
Raise the line raise the line everytime
C'mon
Raise the line
Raise it above my mind
Everything that stains me and breaks me
It's just a gut reaction trapped in this aggressive action
I: Rise:
Everything is right here color me unsold
Everything is right here inside
Take the pain wash it all away baby
C'mon
Take the pain rip it all away
Take my hand take it anytime friend
C'mon
Take my hand take it anytime
Just like the king's men's nightmare
So low gotta see me to feel me
It's just a gut reaction
Trapped in this aggressive action
Everytime I give up something
I end up with less than mine
Turn around and see what's given
It's still less than

Sedated
Queing up
Body searched
Ripped off
In the face of a guy with a grin
Feeling blessed whe he lets you in
Raise your hands, the night begins
Raise your hands, the night begins
Broken thrills
Broken pills
Vibrate
Your eyes dilate
Raise your hands, the night begins
You wanna be sedated
Say what you feel, do what you want
You look so good, you look so fine
Raise your hands, raise your hands
In the ultimate sky
Get high
You wanna be sedated

Love Lifted Me
I was sinking deep in sin,
Far from the peaceful shore,
Very deeply stained within,
Sinking to rise no more.
But the Master of the sea
Heard my despairing cry,
>From the waters lifted me.
Now safe am I.
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help,
Love lifted me.
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help
Love lifted me.
Souls in danger look above
Jesus completely saves
He will lift you by his love
Out of the angry waves
But the master of the sea
Billows His will obey
He your savior wants to be
Be saved today
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help,
Love lifted me.
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help
Love lifted me.

Once Upon A Time
And you
Yes you speak to me tonight
And you say so, say so
That once upon a time
When love, love was a white dove
And hope, long live hope, could spin the whole world round
Im talking east to west
Im talking lost and found
Get up to the mountain top
Im going to drop unto the ground
Thats once upon a time
You raise me up when I know youre around
But God only knows, what God only knows
You lift me up and you spin me around
God only knows, but God only knows
Thats time
Time looked around herself
Time got excited
Thats when we all got started
Still I hear you, yes still you speak to me tonight
You say then how come out of love, is all this cruelty arising?
Well I said, look, well will you look at you, youre frightened
I see that you smile through weariness
But there is not much else enlightened
Well, thats a question down to time
You life me up when I know youre around
God only knows, God only knows
Still you raise me up when I know youre around
God only knows, God only knows
Thats time

On Sunday It Rained
Right now, I keep telling myself that I will have hope
It will bloom and grow
I will keep it up, I will raise it yet again
Then on Sunday it will shine
But I never learn to stop taking risks
Even without luck
So I have hope
It blooms and grows
I keep it up, I raise it yet again
But then on Sunday it rains, doesn't shine
Like I always thought it would
But I never learn
So I still have hope
After all these years
I keep it up, I raise it yet again
But then on Sunday it rains, no sign of shining
Anytime soon
I still haven't learned, so I used to have hope
It bloomed and grew
I kept it up, I raised it yet again
But then
On Sunday it rained…
It can be good that I never learn
Because
One Sunday it shined

Close your eyes
What do you see
Visualize
What you can be
Believe in yourself
I know youll make it through
If you believe in yourself
Like I believe in you
Yes, I do
Hold my hand
Let your mind run free
You can have anything you want
Everythying you need
If you believe in yourself
Thats all you have to do
Just believe in yourself
Like I believe in you
You heart beats
And it starts to raise you
But everything seems to fall
Right into place
Now you see
What your mind can do
Give it some more time
And your dreams will all come true
cause you believe in yourself
And you know what you can do
You believe in yourself
Like I believe in you
Yes, I do
Like I believe in you
Like I believe in you, yeah

Raise Thy Voice
shall we dance once more in these hallowed halls of memories
Take back the childhood once lost to us
Reverse a thousand decisions till there is but indecision
Shall we dance slowly this time in the ring of fire careful not to get burnt
Shall we sing once love filled songs with the poison of hate thick in our
hearts
Shall we fall in love once again knowing what we know now
Should our nights blend with our days leaving us in a wild haze
Should we walk under half laden moons or hold each other till first mornings light
Shall we cherish the time we have or despise the time we're apart
Shall we stake our claim on a tree in the woods
Declare our love in the pouring rain
Kiss under the full moons light
Shall we dance once more in these hallowed halls of memories
Shatter the panes of oppression that bounds our speech our expressions
Shall we dance shall we dance shall we dance to the rhythmless sounds of silence
Shall we open thy mouths to let harmonies blend till the end
Raise thy voice and shatter the silence
Of a generation that was to prone to violence
Grew up to quick yes indeed
Raise thy voice raise it now

Lift Your Right Arm
Lift your right arm, she said.
I lifted my right arm.
Lift your left arm, she said.
I lifted my left arm. Both of my arms were up.
Put down your right arm, she said.
I put it down.
Put down your left arm, she said.
I did.
Lift your right arm, she said.
I obeyed.
Put down your right arm.
I did.
Lift your left arm.
I lifted it.
Put down your left arm.
I did.
Silence. I stood there, both arms down, waiting for her next
command. After a while I got impatient and said, what next.
Now it's your turn to give the orders, she said.
All right, I said. Tell me to lift my right arm.

Memories In Hand (To a New Year)
Raise the glass
Swirl the spirits
Clinking the crystal
Toast those present
Memorializing the many
Absent this assemblage
Raise the mug
Savor the aroma
Embracing the warmth
Cherish the moment
Remembering the past
Drink to the future
Raise the goblet
Of family and friendship
Gathering in kinship
Recollect the gladness
Binding ancient wounds
Banish every sorrow
Raising the chalice
Of spirit and season
A mere midnight moment
Future reminiscence
Memories in making
We hold here in hand

The Way You Are
The Way You Are
Sometimes you ignore me
Sometimes you roll your eyes
Sometimes you don't notice me
And just give me a deep sigh
Sometimes you make me cry
Sometimes you make me weep
Sometimes when I pass by
I just give you the creeps
Sometimes you boss me around
Sometimes you tell me what to do
Sometimes I go round and round
Just to please and satisfy you
BUT...
Most of the time you make me happy
Most of the time you give me smiles
Most of the time you make me feel uneasy
I can hear my heart beat through miles
Most of the time you raise me up
Most of the time you encourage me
Most of the time you fill me up
Fill me up with overflowing glee
Most of the time you hold me tight
Most of the time you lift me up so high
Most of the time you teach me what's right
You make me fly way into the sky
Most of the time you are my support
Most of the time you are my light
Most of the time you give me comfort
You help me with all your might
Sometimes you make me hate you
Most of the time I just hide it inside
Sometimes you make me want to kill you
But most of the time, I just want you by my side
Sometimes...
Most of the time...
Sometimes...
Most of the time...
That's just the way it is
That's just the way you are
But I love the way it is...
And I certainly love...
The way you are

Go Go Go
Raise your hands
Raise your hands high
Dont take a seat
Dont stand aside
This time
Dont assume anything
But go go go
I am a problem child
Ive been wild all my days
All my anger and my rage
My senses said it would lead me astray
I said go go go
Raise your hands
Raise your hands high
Dont take a seat
Dont stand aside
This time
Dont assume anything
This time
Dont assume anything
I said this time
Dont assume anything
One two three four
Jump jump jump so high
Watch me let you down
If I stumble I will stumble
If I fall I will fall
Try to hold it like rain in the river
But everything is getting bigger
Better this wont last forever
Touch me and fall
