All the power in one hand The hand not of God but of a man, a fellow man ultimate power is their aim Rootless they are , destroy all in the way to get their went Freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom of assemble All right and freedom in smokes, there are bugs that are crashed under they feet the people have no say but to sit and suffer They rule with an iron fist holding on to power with all they have whatever the cost, even of blood if raised up against, they **** they torcher Fear and persecution is their ultimate instrument the populations dare not speak for fear of death and endless pain "rat and cockroaches" are the people under their feet There is job is corruption, there are married to corruption Rat they are to them in blackness of knowledge and hiding in holes taking all their can and giving noting back . Though the sun going up and down Revolutionary cloud hang in the sky ready to let down it rain the people shall rise to rebel to be suppressed no more.

The craves of power
I see my countryman still holding on to the pest we look to blame of the jar full of gold which fell out of our hand on the pest, on the men how came from the horizon the men how opened our eyes but not without the down hills, deep valleys and the dark part of them We hold on to the things which drive us into the ground' for we do not peck the from the shining ground but we still look to blame whiles the wind of time blows which is more parlous than gold whiles the wind blows and carry’s away the gold A hunter enticing his whit bat have our country men enticed us whit sweet words and then stave us in the back 7x7x7 and besieged us in poverty Putting us in sinking sand whit noting to hold on to. To the further we must look and loss the burden which we hold on to. Moving from the past is inevitable if we went to be on the other side where the sun is reaching for the thing which are in front and living the thing which are in behind .

My country men
The tempter tempting me with temptations My weak flash willth to give heed but my willing spirit says, test not M y body grow worry and tired I went to fall and let go but my willing spirit says move on My body screams pain and pain and all pain My body says let go soldier but my willing spirit says pain is weakness living the body My feet and arms grow worry from work My weak flash says it alright to stop But I can’t My willing sprit will not let me for the task is not finished My body says rest and sleep enjoy and consent not thy duties But my eyes close not foe sleep or rest For the willing in me says to me the duty is not complete nor the journey ended All roads closed, all light out I find not the way before my eyes But my willing spirit sayth there lays the way For it is not the presences of a weak flesh that will lead to failure but rather the absences of a willing spirit
