There is a cross road of right or wrong.  It's up to you to choose the good, or go down the road of harm.
There is a cross road of danger, just a few steps ahead.  I'm not sure you want to travel this road, you are going to end up dead.
There is a cross road of peace, and tranquility.  You will never be in *******, but live a life that's free.
Once you choose the road, you desire to follow:  If you choose the wrong road, there will be no need to  hollow.

TO BE SOMEBODY IN SPITE OF
You can be somebody, in spite of what people say.  Make sure you carry yourself in a manner, when you rise each day.
You can be somebody, don't be afraid of fear.  God created us to be bold, to make it through each year.
You can be somebody, be a good example, before us all.  Then you'll be able to answer, when somebody makes a call.
You can be somebody, learn to be your best.  When you go to sleep at night, you'll be able to rest.
You can be somebody, watch your appearance out in the streets.  You never know who you may run into, not knowing who you will meet.

FORGETTING THE OLD YEAR
Let's forget the old year, something from our past.  Let's bring in the New Year with everything that will last.
Let's forget the old year, leaving all the bad behind.  Let's reflect on the good things, clearing evil from our minds.
Let's forget the old year, bringing something new to the table.  You can be top of the line, all because everything is stable.
Let's forget the old year, go after the vision ahead.  Remember to follow your leaders, as you are being lead.
Let's forget the old year, refuse to let things be the same.  Build up your self esteem, to go along with your precious name.

I'm not you, and you are not me; I notice you are in *******, but I am totally free.
I'm not you, and you are not me, I refuse to walk with a hung down head, as if looking for a fee.
I'm not you, and you are not me, I have a vision in life, of what I want to be.
I'm not you, and you are not me, when we were created, someone through away the key.

Turning Bad Into Good
So you got a report card, that was pretty bad.  The next time it can be made good, in your studies with your Mom and Dad.
So you got a bad report, concerning your clean white teeth.  Maybe, you need to floss everyday, at the top and floss beneath.
So you got a bad report, about not getting a job.  There are other places to search, instead of sitting down to sob. 
So you got a bad report that someone stole your car.  Just call the insurance adjuster, then you'll be able to go far.
So you got a bad report, don't let it be the end of everything.  Take your time and relax, I'm sure something can be arranged.

ASK YOURSELF
Ask yourself, have I touched someone's life today?  Have I found a comfortable place, for the homeless to stay?
Ask yourself, how was my attitude?  Was I polite, or was I very rude?
Ask yourself, did I share a smile?  And the one who needed help, did I go the extra mile?
Ask yourself, are people glad when I come around?  Or, do they turn in another direction, because I make them feel down?
Ask yourself, today did I do my best?  Or, did I look to find ways, so I could do less?
Ask yourself, when the Father made me, why was I on His mind?   Was it to assist His creation, and all of mankind?

THE TIME HAS COME, TO STAND UP FOR THE TRUTH.  SIN COMES IN MANY FORMS, DON'T FORGET WHAT YOU WERE TAUGHT, FROM YOUR EARLY YOUTH.
MILLIONS WERE TAUGHT TO LIVE, BY THE WORD OF GOD.  AS A RESULT OF DISOBEDIENCE, GOD WILL USE HIS ROD.
STAND UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE; YOU HAVE COME TOO FAR TO CHANGE.  LIVE A LIFE REQUIRED BY GOD, IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE RE ARRANGED.
THERE IS NO TIME TO TURN AROUND, FOR THE THINGS YOU KNOW ARE RIGHT.  THERE IS NO NEED TO COMPROMISE, WHOEVER IS BEFORE YOUR SIGHT.

Save Your Last Nerve
Save your last nerve, to breathe in and out.  Or, you may do something strange, not having any doubt.
Save your last nerve, and begin to count to ten.  Just by doing this, you are guaranteed to win.
Save your last nerve, be calm and close your eyes.  You no longer have to look  at the person, that you know have lied.
Save your last nerve, resist the temptation to fight.  You will be a better person, even though you know, fighting is not right.
Save your last nerve, you don't have to go to jail.  It's best to just stand there, even if your face turn pale.
Refuse to let things in life, get on your last nerve.  If you choose to lose it, how will your voice be heard?

I Don't Mind
I don't mind, if you constantly tell the truth.  Also, you are given the" Go Ahead," sign, to do all you can for our youth.
I don't mind, if you help those without a home.  You can even visit those, who are sitting all alone.
I don't mind, if you contribute to the nearest Food Bank.  This will give our children a chance to eat, and be able to think.
I don't mind, if you donated clothes and shoes. They no longer have to be teased, by the children they see at school.
I don't mind, if you daily took time out to pray.  I promise you this one thing; I will not get in your way.
I don't mind!

Running Fast Going Nowhere
My sister and I followed our father, to the corner Restaurant; he wore sock without shoes.  While we waited for him; he decided to drink a little *****.
When it came time for us to leave; he walked us out the door.  Quickly, a bright light shined, from the Police car, until my father couldn't take it anymore.
He began to run fast, not going anywhere.  My sister and I were far ahead, but my father was far back there.
All we could see was a lot of smoke, because he was kicking up dust.  He had one thing on his mind, evidently, he forgot about us.  
We finally made it safely home, without him being locked up.  Somehow the Officer knew, my father was a man who was stuck.

You hurt your brothers feeling, bringing everything in the bare.  You pay them no attention; you show you just don't care.
Since you've moved up in life, you left your friends behind.  How quickly you forgot they helped, when you did not have a dime.
Show a little gratitude, and humble your high lifted head.  What will people say about you, when you lay your head?

If you became rich, would you become another man?  Would you be that person, no one could stand?
If you became rich, would people know who you are?  Would you move quickly, to get away from us, to a place very far?
If you became rich, would you know how to act?  Would you ignore the people that you know, who really lack?
If you became rich, would you be seen again?  Would you escape into a life, totally filled with sin?
If you became rich, would you help those who helped you excel?  Even to the ones, who prevented you from going to jail.
If you became rich, tell me how long will it last?  Would you get involved into drugs and alcohol, watching your money deplete fast?
If you became rich, would you keep a sound mind?  Would you continue to treat others not rude, but promise to be kind?

When You Fall, Get Back Up
When you fall, you don't have to stay down.  Look at the hands reaching out, to lift you off the ground.  
When you fall, lift your head up high.  This is the time to wait patiently, until someone stop by.
When you fall, that's not where you'll stay.  This will be a good time, to take time out to pray.
When you fall, it's important to keep alert.  If you have been wounded, make sure you get rid of the dirt.
When you fall, let someone know how you feel.  Once you decide to open up, then a plan can be revealed.
When you fall, you may think this is a "bitter cup."  Once you receive a little more strength, you'll be able to stand back up.

Mothers Who Have to Weep
The mothers in Nigeria today has to constantly weep.   The men who stole their children away, are people they would like to meet.
In the middle of the night at school, their children were taken away.  To listen to the words of the leader, is something he didn't need to say.
How can a leader be so evil, and even have a nerve to laugh, at what has taken place.  This attack was carried out, on people of his own race.
How long do we have to live in a world that provokes only fear?  May God bring protection to the girls, as His angels draws near.
May God bring peace, to the families left behind.  In order to make it through what they are experiencing, God has to be always on their mind.

Now that you are gone, we'll miss the family's dinners.  Even the games we played, we were all the winners.
Now that you are gone, I'll miss how you reached out to others,  Not just to the world, but all your sisters and brothers.
Now that you are gone, you'll never be seen again.  You now have a stronger ARM, upon which you can lean.
Now you are enjoying yourself, in a fantastic place.  You have left us behind, to run this Christian Race.

Just because you're a bully, tell me what have you learned?  When you knocked that small boy down, was that black eye earned?
The next time you pick on someone small, especially, if he's not your size; be very careful, not to get hit in the other eye.
You need to be taught some manners, not to bully people around.  You might be surprised, if you end up on the ground.  
It's not good, to treat the smallest man light.  You may find yourself, in another fight.
You need to learn your lesson, no one is afraid of you.  But it will be wise, to watch the next thing you do.

You make sure you go to work, and try your best to be on time.  After working all day long, would there be a chance to free your mind?
You have to take time out to worship, and spend some time in prayer.  After arriving back home again, would you be able to let down your hair?
You need a time of rest, to continue building energy.  The body should not be neglected, because it's created to be free.

Jesus is our example, to sleep no matter what.  He slept lying down, the storm didn't wake him up.
Jesus is our example, when he slept on the ship.  The boat was not about to turn over, neither was it about to flip.
Jesus is our example, while the water covered him on the boat.  He slept in glorious peace, as the ship continued to float.
Jesus is our example, to enjoy such lovely rest.  He did not sleep in fear; he was able to past the test.
Jesus was our example, he slept without any harm.  Upon his awakening, he quickly calmed the storm.

You are sitting at the table, with all types of food.  Because it is so tasty; you moan licking your fingers, acting very rude.

"Word Up" for the Bible, that is held up in the air.  This will be nice, if it's done everywhere.
"Word Up" for the Bible, that give you a chance to read.  Watch it change your life, as you began to take heed.
"Word Up" for the Bible, to teach you how to live right.  Take advantage to read it, morning, noon and night.
"Word Up" for the Bible, it will guide you to the light.  This will be the best thing you will see, in front of your precious sight.
"Word Up" for the Bible, to put you on the right road.  It will always help you, reach your perfect goal.
"Word Up" for the Bible, there's no need to be without knowledge.  You will be ahead of everyone, even those who go to College.

Mother And Child
There is nothing like having a child, in which you love so much.  This child receives your love, from your smile, and your precious touch.
There is nothing like having a child, to hold within your arms.  You want your child so well protected, preventing him from all harm.
There is nothing like having a child, to put him on the right path.  He will learn he is defined by who is, and not what he hath.
There is nothing like having a child, not giving him everything in sight.  He will also learn, it's important to do what's right.
There is nothing like having a child, to teach him the Word of God.  As this child grows older, he will always know the Lord.

A Place In Time
There was a place in time, we did not have to fear.  People had respect for one another; people were so dear.
There was a place in time, children safely had a place to play.  You can plainly see what's happening, in this area today.
There was a place in time, you could rely on your neighbor.  Today if you need any help, they tell you they are not able.
There was a place in time, when people walked to Church.  Today they find it hard to get out of bed, acting as if it hurts.
There was a place in time, when the family gathered, to sit down to eat.  Today they eat in any room, standing up on their feet.
There was a place in time, when we walked to School.  Today children ride the bus, breaking so many of the rules.
There was a place in time, when no one hardly got sick.  Today we deal with so many allergies, giving us a fit.

FROM THE HEART
Whatever you do in life, do it from the heart.  It's up to you to take heed, not allowing these words to depart.
Whatever you do in life, don't get things half done.  Even if you take your time, doing it one by one.
Whatever you do in life, there's no need to be sloppy.  Even allow your clothes to look neat, make sure your socks are not floppy.
Whatever you do in life, always do your best.  It's not good to settle for anything, and refuse to take anything less.
Whatever you do in life, stand up and walk tall.  Whatever you decide to do, give it your all in all.

Human
We are all human, why are we treated in different way?.  Some are treated like animals, not caring if they are saved.
We are all human, but some face harsh prejudice.  To drive around in certain towns, you are taking a risk.
We are all human, but some are viewed as the **** of the earth.  When people look into our faces, they're persuaded we have no worth.
We are all human, some people are treated so bad.  Some people have an objective, and that's to keep you sad.
We are all human, some think they are better than you.  They do not care anything about you, in fact, they think you are through.
We are all human, therefore we should be treated the same.  The only difference there should be is the spelling of your name.
We are all human, no matter what position you hold.  You were born into this world, hopefully you'll leave, when you are old.

Stone Wall
I'm writing about," Stone Wall," but not Stone Wall Jackson.  The stone wall I am writing about, will be sure to get a reaction.
When I was young, until the age of six, we were the first family to move into a brand new apartment, where  everything was built.
Within this new apartment, they built walls made of stone.  If you were to run real fast, you could break every bone.
Not only the walls were made of stone, but also sixteen steps.  If you happen to fall on just one of them, prepare to run for help.
The children got so many knots, sticking out on their head.  If it wasn't for the Almighty God, we could all be dead.
