Global
I am global
My aims may have a high value
But I’m no noble
I am global
I bring the world together
Like pieces of a puzzle
And support all freedoms
But will gladly put a muzzle
To the peace that dares speak out of turn
You think the planet’s warm?
Wait ‘til you get burned
I am global
I move entire nations
By moving just a few
To see things they otherwise wouldn’t
If it weren’t for my view
And to the blind, willing, and able
I say, war is always an option, sitting
On a very convincing table
I am global
I care for the environment
And hug a tree a day
Right before I chop it down
To construct toll booths, oh, and a freeway
Because paving the way ahead
Means making the world greener
For tomorrow, but today, mainly for my beamer
I am global
I’m concerned about life
Even though I can’t die
My hard work makes your living better
I’m pretty sure that I can’t lie
Some falsely think I’m full of scorn
For rules, property, and people
But I can’t help but smile when a new baby is born
I am global
I’m everywhere and nowhere
I’m in your face and unseen
I’m everyone and no one
I’m germ-free and unclean
I’m everything and nothing
I’m in the lead and on your side
Keep your seat back, close your eyes
And let me take you for a ride

My Global Mind
Theres hunger in africa,
And anger on assembly lines.
At the touch of a button
Im miles away.
I want no connection, just information,
And Im gone.
I feel so helpless,
So I turn my gaze to another place.
My global mind reaches out for the truth.
Why try holding back the wave?
Youll only drown in the changes.
Youve got to learn to let go.
Just let go and experience the flight.
Try to see from a different side..
If balance is the key
Maybe well see
A future understanding,
Then we wont feel so helpless,
An turn away and hide from the change.
My global mind searches for something new.
My global mind zeros in on news.
Time and rules are changing.
Attention span is quickening.
Welcome to the information age.
I feel so helpless,
So I turn my gaze to another place.
My global mind searches for something new.
My global mind zeros in on news.
My global mind reaches out for the truth.
My global mind zeros in on you.
Its searching everywhere,
Across the mountains,
Across the oceans,
Across every man made line.
No boundary gonna keep it from you.

AIDS is a global problem and there should be a global solution found by the entire international community. It is really scary to see and imagine our world fall into pieces because we refuse to share and put in the common vestiges of our civilizations.

Global Pt. II: Global-I-Nation
I am global
Nobody can stop me
No election’s gimmicks, nor the cynics
And surely not the hopeful
I am global
I mass produce misery
By the truckload I touch those
Too basic for delivery
While handing, then branding
Them all with all our livery
They’ll risk and bleed to fill the need
For the next thing doomed to history
I am global
I work to kill jobs
Sending companies overseas
Turning people into mobs
But they never stay for a lower pay
Too small to pull corn off the cob
Why should I cry, be in favor of labor?
I’ll bring robots in to sob
I am global
I set aside to squander
The futures of the losers
Too broke to money launder
Listen to the wail ‘I’m too big to fail’
While my last scruple flies out and wanders
My cash is made ‘fore your life is saved
Hmm…So much for first responders
I am global
I lie inside a network
Within the phone, within your home
I take away the guesswork
Of what you do and if you knew
That previous your chest hurt
To keep you right and living life
As thrilling as a desk clerk
I am global
I bar any invention
I take resources to raze ‘free’ forces
I’m larger than dissension
I speak in tongues of bourgeois slums
I invade all intentions
I eat small fish like a sushi dish
And starve you for attention

Global Culture
A global culture is closing up on us,
But with lustful minds to kill mankind;
Yet still, they take up the Bible to calm us down.
When it is not a coup, it is war! !
And like what is now going on in Libya;
But with lustful minds to kill mankind!
Of a global culture,
But little things do mean a lot when you know the value;
And check out the life styles around you today,
For it si a mixture of righteous and evil!
The oil reserves are being bombed today in Libya,
And the dark mushroom clouds bring sadness on our faces;
But how many dead bodies are already recorded?
Of human beings and human identities,
But the global culture is what we know;
With global villages in the state ot our minds,
But quote it from the Torah and compare it with the modernizations around you.
Oh mankind! ! What have we done to ourselves on this earth?
Where is the missing link and, why the hatred? ! !
But the positive ones are never heard in times like this;
With the magnitudes of the negative one crowning the day!
But let us sit down and talk about it.

The recent 'panic' to control greenhouse gas emissions and billions of dollars being dedicated for the task has me deeply concerned that US, and other countries are spending precious global funds to stop global warming, when it is primarily being driven by natural forcing mechanisms.

Global Deficit
There is a global climbing,
Economic deficit.
And those hungry and homeless,
Had nothing to do with it.
Their lives have been shattered and torn,
With little concern...
To correct this and get their lives fixed.
There is a global climbing,
Economic deficit.
With few blaming the greedy...
Or the thieves employed,
That caused all of it.
Where is this heading?
As divisions of conflicts split?
Only more distrust becomes the experience.
And that seems to be the greatest effectiveness,
Of this...
Global deficit!

Positive Global Player
Victoria Island and lake Elizabeth!
Stand up for love,
Stan up for peace,
Like the message of love,
And like people's choice! !
Choice, voice;
Love's messenger,
With the money and the time of doing things;
Flying up high!
Gone up;
And, this is the love that i bring to you!
Like a global player.
Every man is my brother and,
Every woman is my sister!
Love is what i preach;
Unstoppable,
Old school's flavour,
And, i will never change from my positive works;
For life,
And for real! !
With the blues,
With the blue sea,
With the blue sky,
With the blue planet;
And like a positive global player.

Of Global Warming And Climate Change
Of Global warming and climate change we read of and hear
The changes in our natural environment gives us reason to fear
Of what does lay ahead for the children of today
We've brought climate change forward by centuries it does seem that way.
The polar ice caps are melting at an alarming rate
Our polluting of our natural environment not something to celebrate
To combat global warming we've left it a bit late
As a species we may well have sealed our own fate.
The burning of fossil fuels and carbon emissions have gone on for too long
On what causes climate change the experts have never been wrong
What we do to Nature in kind she repay
Global warming a threat to human existence many experts now say.
War and terrorism as a threat to humanity seems little at all
When compared to climate change it's impact seems small
Humans not known to learn from mistakes of the past
We must change our ways and we must change them fast.

One of the gaps in our international development efforts is the provision of global public goods - that is, goods or conditions we need that no individual or country can secure on their own, such as halting global warming, financial stability and peace and security.
