I Have A Dream

"We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.>




Martin Luther King


"I refuse to accept the idea that man is mere flotsom and jetsom in the river of life, unable to influence the unfolding events which surround him.I refuse to accept that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become reality"

sonhar
Sonho/Realidade
acordado
Não sei se é sonho,se realidade,
Se uma mistura de sonho e vida,
Aquela terra de suavidade
Que na ilha extrema do sul se olvida.
É a que ansiamos. Ali, ali
A vida é jovem e o amor sorri.
(Fernando Pessoa)

everything would appear to man as it is, infinite."

La Vita è Bella



Sublime - Badfish

When you grab ahold of me
you tell me that i'll never be set free
but i'm a parasite
creep and crawl i step into the night

two pints of booze
tell me are you a badfish too (are you a badfish too)
ain't got no money to spend
i hope the night would never end

lord knows i'm weak
won't somebody get me off this reef

baby your a big blue whale
grab the reef when all duck divin' fails
i swim but i wish i never learned
the water's too polluted with germs

i dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
grab the reef underneath my bed (underneath my bed)
ain't got no quarrels with god
ain't got no time to grow old

lord knows i'm weak
won't some-body get me off this reef

ain't got no quarrels with god
ain't got no time to get old
lord knows i'm weak
won't somebody get me off of this reef



"Sensitivity gets mistaken for weakness,
and not for what it is,
which is the perception of subtle realities"
LSD
(Teresa Gabriel)

Proxima Estacion: Esperanza

So many nights

I sing along the merry blues

So many nights

Can't keep from going

Down lose

The merry blues




Por la calle del desengaño
Esta mañana yo pasé
Con malegría otra vez
Por la calle del desengaño
Mi malegría emborraché
Dentro un vasito de jerez

Parfois j'aimerais mourir
Tellement Y'a plus d'espoir
Parfois j'aimerais mourir
Pour plus jamais te revoir
Parfois j'aimerais mourir
Pour ne rien savoir

La Revolución!


RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE
Take The Power Back

Bring that shit in! Uggh!

Yeah, the movement's in motion with mass militant poetry
Now check this out...uggh!

In the right light, study becomes insight
But the system that dissed us
Teaches us to read and right

So called facts are fraud
They want us to allege and pledge
And bow down to their God
Lost the culture, the culture lost
Spun our minds and through time
Ignorance has taken over
Yo, we gotta take the power back!
Bam! Here's the plan
Motherfuck Uncle Sam
Step back, I know who I am
Raise up your ear, I'll drop the style and clear
It's the beats and the lyrics they fear
The rage is relentless
We need a movement with a quickness
You are the witness of change
And to counteract
We gotta take the power back

Yeah, we gotta take the power back
Come on, come on!
We gotta take the power back

The present curriculum
I put my fist in 'em
Eurocentric every last one of 'em
See right through the red, white and blue disguise
With lecture I puncture the structure of lies
Installed in our minds and attempting
To hold us back
We've got to take it back
Holes in our spirit causin' tears and fears
One-sided stories for years and years and years
I'm inferior? Who's inferior?
Yeah, we need to check the interior
Of the system that cares about only one culture
And that is why
We gotta take the power back

Yeah, we gotta take the power back
Come on, come on!
We gotta take the power back

Hey yo check, we're gonna have to break it, break it, break it down
Awww shit!

Uggh!

And like this...uggh!

Come on, yeah! Bring it back the other way!

The teacher stands in front of the class
But the lesson plan he can't recall
The student's eyes don't perceive the lies
Bouning off every fucking wall
His composure is well kept
I guess he fears playing the fool
The complacent students sit and listen to some of that
Bullshit that he learned in school

Europe ain't my rope to swing on
Can't learn a thing from it
Yet we hang from it
Gotta get it, gotta get it together then
Like the motherfuckin' weathermen
To expose and close the doors on those who try
To strangle and mangle the truth'
Cause the circle of hatred continues unless we react
We gotta take the power back

Yeah, we gotta take the power back
Come on, come on!
We gotta take the power back

No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies
No more lies

Uggh!

Yeah!

Take it back y'all
Take it back, a-take it back
A-take it back y'all, come on!
Take it back y'all
Take it back, a-take it back
A-take it back y'all, come on!

Uggh!

Yeah!
