False Vanity
Peace's vanished, humani ty is about to expire,
Coming down patience and raising only desire,
Unrest has grown in this capitalistempire,
Our rights are burning in tyranicalfire.
Firstly Christians clashed Jews, picked up then,
Got them settled in Palestine by the dint of powers,
Gave her all rights that for others're forbidden,
On the corpses of martyrs they are raising towers.
None is speaking against this unfair possession,
Talking to give her now half part,
Uprooting them by and by is their mission,
And making countries fight is their art.
Demolishing two high buildings America got chance,
Ruined Afghan, Iraq now her eyes're on Iran,
On Nue-clear issue she's happy and does dance,
Waiting for a fine opportunity dominating on Tehran.
Though no fatal weapons in Iraq she found,
No country raised a query nor made made sound,
UNO, NATO, none was near to help her around,
America threw all international laws on the ground.
Why having Nue-clear to Iran burns her hair?
Israel bears the same, for her it is fair?
Palestinians are called terrorists, but they don't despair,
On their compulsion now she gives herself air.
How long will they go with their pride?
The world's witness, Time has never forgiven one,
In the mist of power those who ride,
They'll come to grief getting in the sun.
O that! There would be a powerful nation,
Which would maintain love, peaceand dignity,
Never leave the rope of just and limitation,
But break the magic of their false vanity.

Clear Across America Tonight
(Randy Owen/Teddy Gentry/Ronnie Rogers/Greg Fowler)
Just outside of Austin
I turned on my radio
Turned it in to a satellite station
She was talkin' on a call-in show
She said it was over, she'd made her choice
Her mind was made-up by the sound of her voice
Clear across America tonight
Clear coast-to-coast tonight
She's long gone, she's outta here
But she's comin' through loud and clear
Clear across America tonight
Sounded like he really had it coming
All the times he'd done her wrong
She said, I hope he's listening
And hung-up the telephone
All of a sudden, I realized
It was me she was telling good-bye
Clear across America tonight
Clear coast-to-coast tonight
She's long gone, she's outta here
But she's comin' through loud and clear
Clear across America tonight
Hello dj, put me on the air
Give me the chance to tell her I still care
Get her back on the line, tell her I'm still in love
Said, "sorry son, but you're breaking up"
Clear across America tonight
Clear coast-to-coast tonight
She's long gone, she's outta here
But she's comin' through loud and clear
Across America tonight
Across America tonight
Clear across America tonight
Clear across America tonight
Clear across America tonight

Tehran
In your plane in the blue sky
You roam again
Word that echo in your mind
Make you heart beat faster
This is no vietnam
We will win in iran
The president said let it ride
Islam be damned
Make your last stand
In tehran
Warrior, the time bombs
About to go
What will you feel
Will you even wonder
If the man thatsin your sights
Ever kissed his girl goodbye
The president said let it ride
Islam be damned
Make your last stand
In tehran
Great satan
Our flags our burning
Soon america may find
Its young men in the sand
Where there casualty
Is just a number
In iran
The president said let it ride
Islam be damned
Make your last stand
In tehran

America, we're drained of enthusiasm for you
America, why this meaningless war?
America, you are no longer beautiful
America, when will you see the light?
When will you call peace and dance and sing
When will you look in the mirror
and see the menace you have become?
When will you read the philosophies of God
that say Thou Shalt Not Kill?
America, when will you open your eyes?
America, why do you dye the shores red?
Why are the guns loaded with skulls?
Why do you leave your brothers behind
To charge bull-like at a cloth too large for you?
America, why are you putting a gun to your head?
America, stop killing me I'm not
Innocent, not Guilty
AMERICA STOP PUSHING!
America don't liberate me I'm already independent.
America I refuse to give up my rights
I refuse to give up others' rights
America don't reject your own
America the HATE is growing
They're rising up growing
America, let the prisoners go
The scholars of war in peace in hate in freedom
The Ginsbergs and Kerouacs and Dickesons and Whitmans
Of generations past
Free the ones whose philosophies peace it together
America your war is at home
America what is your motto?
Mission is not accomplished
It has just started.
America you have life to give,
not take away.
America, you deserve this war
America, my love for you is gone
America, monster, stop your screaming slashing rage
Look into your past
America LEARN from your mistakes
America, make it continue
AMERICA MAKE IT STOP

My Fellow Americans
My fellow americans
far be it from me to sow the seeds of despair
'bout enemies that won't play fair
what we always said was always right
america, i tell you, will not shirk that fight
we shall be exercise our mighty might
and, yes goddam it, win by right
my speechmakers - they know their rhymes
my speeches always here on time
my words with meaning fully filled
my thoughts as bright as daffodils
not by idle words that simply seek
to seek false morals in being meek
no! i tell you now america
this land so blessed and so free
that a kinder gentler time won't be
if we avoid those bigger issues
like to the arabs selling tissues
now, i hope you like my little joke
i am - in truth - a simple bloke
i know whats right and what is wrong
i can't spell too good nor write a song
but i am here brave straight and tall
your c-in-c and after all
the buck stops here and let me say
i am proud that it should be that way
i hate the way those media folk
turn my speeches into jokes
for i am true america
i know the threats i have a plan
i took us there into iraq
my critics all should now take back
their weasel words and sophistry
for its so very clear to me
that while the weapons were not there
they might have been and so - i swear -
the scenes we now see on our screens
more horrid than our worsest dreams
full bear me out when i did say
that their's was not our star striped way
now there's iran - now here me straight
we'll hit them soon and we won't wait
i'll now be humble for i find
some don't like my vivid mind
i will say sorry - just this time
for words that just for once were mine
'dead or alive' i think i said
about bin laden when upset
its just the way i talk you see
why won't the world believe in me?

The 1st of May
The 1st of May,
It’s a Solidarity Day.
I will not shout “Hurray”
But would like to say
For all peoples and nations
Join together! Live in peace!
In America and Greece,
In Iraq and Iran,
In India and Pakistan,
In China and Hong Kong
And so on and so on.
The history of this day is very significant one:
The workers of Chicago
Went on demonstration
For their rights.
They didn’t want any fights.
Today in my country
The 1st of May is a holiday.
We do not shout “Hurray”
As there is nothing to demonstrate.
But we love and celebrate this day
As it personify humanity and peace,
Beauty of our nature
And life as a wonderful adventure.

A dominating force
Another dominating force emerging on horizon
The area of influence is divided into zones
They are out to destroy the hegemony created by man
It is now power lobby and struggle waged by women
They are up in arms against so called dominating zone
They have made great impact and made their presence known
They have made in roads and have come up of their own
Men might have not liked their escape from yoke and frowned
How long one can be kept at bay for no reasons?
The resistance is bound to emerge by right thinking persons
The flowers adore the garden in all the seasons
Why women can’t find suitable place and come on
They have suffered terribly under male domination
Complete freedom for them was never raised and was out of question
It was male chauvinism that was only main hurdle
The women have opened the front and come out in middle
It is their legitimate right to breathe in fresh air
They are not glass dolls loitering here with bobbed hair
They are clear in their ambition and has made powerful drive
No one can term it miracle and has to recognize and believe
They have their class of own and worth to prove
Large section of people may oppose and disprove
How can we muffle the voice of women for their rights?
They have every right to come out for rights and fight
They have largest numbers in developed and non developed countries
It was adding insult to their woes and miseries
The cruelty committed on them are appearing as main led stories
It is cause of tension for right thinking people and adding worries
What can be termed as trumphatant victory?
Jubilation all over with no more sorry
It is well deserved crown for their long battle
They were tied up at home like animals
The sun may shine uniformally over globe
No more complaints and no more probes
It is fine way leading to the leading to the tunnel
They are fine blend of personalities to be observed in channels
They may look victorious is clear win or triumph
They are known as capable and better half
Everything may move on now with complete harmony
It is cherished dream and might have not dreamed by many
Woman is incarnation of living god
We owe many things to them and have got
They were side by side when wars were fought
They are combination of that entire and that is what we are taught

I believe in an America that is on the march — an America respected by all nations, friends and foes alike — an America that is moving, doing, working, trying — a strong America in a world of peace. That peace must be based on world law and world order, on the mutual respect of all nations for the rights and powers of others and on a world economy in which no nation lacks the ability to provide a decent standard of living for all of its people.

We must restore the soul of America. Our nation is shaped by the constant battle between our better angels and our darkest impulses. It is time for our better angels to prevail. Tonight, the whole world is watching America. I believe at our best America is a beacon for the globe. And we lead not by the example of our power, but by the power of our example.... Now, together — on eagle's wings — we embark on the work that God and history have called upon us to do. With full hearts and steady hands, with faith in America and in each other, with a love of country — and a thirst for justice — let us be the nation that we know we can be. A nation united. A nation strengthened. A nation healed. The United States of America.

Why Hate America
.There are so any reason to hate America.
I cannot count them all.
You can hate America because.
There is no King or Queen to bow down too.
You can hate America because.
You can travel from sea to shining sea freely
while traveling you can watch the amber waves
of grain.
As they slow dance and sway to music of God's
gentle breath as it passes over them.
You can hate America because.
There is no guard standing at the gates of
freedom to keep you out.
You can hate America because.
There one man rights to stand alone is just
as great as one man rights to stand with many.
You can hate America because.
No matter what you believe in or faith.
There rights are creatived and handed down
by God, and not governments.
You can hate America because.
America does not close it mind to shut out
freedom of thoughts.
You can hate America because.
Opportunity stands outside everyone door
and knock.
All they have to do is open up and it will walk in.
The list could go on and on.
But I choose to let it end here.
America you are the sweetest thing to me.
It is because of you.
That they have the right to hate you.
Without the fear of repression.

A Palestinian That's Who I Am!
Yes, I am a PALETINIAN and I’m proud to be
I don’t give a damn on what people think about me
A strong and fearful PALESTINIAN, yeah that’s who I am
If you wanna insult me come say it to my face...That’s if you can
I am a PALESTINIAN the fire is burning inside of me
The brightness of this fire makes the whole world see
What PALESTINIANS are made of
And we aren’t just made of flesh and blood
We will destroy our enemies…we will create a flood
Israel, , just wait we shall come
Where you won’t see the blue sky not even the sun
Don’t think that by killing and torturing us, you’ll ever reach the top
Because our courage and bravery that lies deep beneath us will never stop
Try taking our morality and honesty towards our country and people away
Do whatever you want…Say whatever you say
This is my country and I’ll defend it no matter what it takes
A fight that is not acted a fight that cannot be faked
We- PALESTINIANS- do not fear death
It’s death that fears us... Even from the sound of our breath
PALESTINIANS… a PALESTINIAN where you Israel will never be
And if you deal with another PALESTINIAN then you’re dealing with me
Ohh yes, I am a PALESTINIAN, a PALESTINIAN from head to toe
Something you Israel even if you try will never ever understand or know…

Iran-contra,
Reagon dealing arms

in hopes to free hostages,

Contras, torture, assassinations,
kidnapping, even women and children...
fighting without rules...human rights violated...
overthrow the regime...
and U.S. control expands....
Iran, birthing terror threats,
and nuclear possibilities....
fixed on Israel!
meanwhile, money free and flowing,
jobs up, easy credit...

buy and sell and follow....

Every One's Talking,
every one's talking,
all they did to me,
they be talking,
I knew them for these pattern's,
every one's talking of I,
I don't think I have a brother,
no a sister,
the negation burn in me,
when trust is in selling your right's,
I know that you I loved,
Sustained my time,
I honour the Lord for taking me to Heaven,
Reason of life and death,
You sustained my blood,
Washed me and every one's talking of me,
All they do is talk ill of me,
When will us have peace, ?
War never stopping.
War escalating,
War of Iraq and America,
War of the Middle East,
All my brother's and sister's,
from America,
All my brother's and sister's
from Iraq,
All my brother's and sister's
from the Middle East,
Tell me what's going on,
President's
Tell me what's going on,
When you kill our brother's,
Steal our sister's,
Then I will be bothered,
That the war never end's,
When my brother's die from the middle east,
I'm ready to be a victim,
It really affect's each human being,
The world is not a boundary of countries,
The world is an integration of metaphysical volition,
Brothers and Sister's,
I don't need these trouble's,
Tell me what's going on,
I don't need these trouble's,
I've had enough from the world,
We don't need no more trouble's.

America 'The Great
If America's so beautiful
If America's so great
Then why is it everywhere I go I only see hate
If America is the greatest country in the world
Why so many needless deaths?
It makes my stomach curl
Sure there's opportunity but who's it for you ask?
People who make it big by chance or the one's who already have cash
So if you think your countries bad think of what I say
America's going down the drain so wherever you are just stay

The Fall Of War
How many lost people will lose so you could gain
Is it possible for you to make the Earth spin faster?
How much will they pay for your mistakes?
Could you sleep better if you were sane?
Oh America
Why pray to a flag?
It won't wrap you up and keep you warm
Why set the times for you to fight?
When you fall asleep, you won't dream with clocks under your arms
Oh America
Destiny isn't charted or drawn
Faith is an imagination
Hope is a give and take kind of thing
Domination is your mostly likely flaw, but I hate it
Oh America
Stop
Drop your weapons
Prepare for immediate death
Heaven's gate has closed
Your God has no time to save you
Stop I said
America, no one can tell the time when judgement day will come
Hell's fire will stream stronger and shine
Russia, China, Afghanistan, and Iraq will push America to the front of the line
All countries of war, your mistakes have been paid for, and you are dead and gone
Now you are all one in a new America
