In the world we are living in, it's hard to bring out your best.  People seem to provoke you, so you can't past the test.
In the world we are living in, we are forced to pay so many bills.  You sit back and wonder, when will they ever yield?
In the world we are living in, within there is a loud scream.  If only someone can listen, if only you can be seen.
In the world we are living in, there is so much stress.  Don't allow it to cause you depression, get rest and try to worry less.
Don't let stress get you down, you are worth more than that.  Somehow, learn to be happy, refrain from becoming upset.

THERE ARE THE WORST OF CHILDREN, LOOKING FOR GIFTS.  THEY HAVE BEEN MEAN ALL YEAR LONG, NOT WILLING TO GIVE YOU A LIFT.
THERE ARE THE WORST OF CHILDREN, WITH AN OUT STRETCHED HAND.  THEY ARE READY TO RECEIVE, ALL THAT THEY CAN.
THERE ARE THE WORST OF CHILDREN, EXPECTING YOU TO SPEND YOUR ALL.  THEY ARE THE ONES TO STICK THEIR FOOT OUT, TO MAKE SURE YOU FALL.
THERE ARE THE WORST OF CHILDREN, WITH AN ATTITUDE "I DON'T CARE."  YOU WILL FIND THEM STARTING TROUBLE, JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE.
THERE ARE THE WORST OF CHILDREN, WE NEED TO SHOW THEM HOW WE FEEL.  THEY NEED TO BE HANDED OVER, NOTHING BUT  A POTATO PEEL.
BY, AUTHOR & POET, SANDRA JUANITA NAILING
It's important who you hang around, they say that you are their friend.  You need to be very careful, before something bad happen in the end.
You need to know about a person, before you spend time out.  You need to get to know, what a person is all about.
The wrong friends will try their best, to be in control.  Notice, whatever is said, comes out very bold.
In this world we are living in, we don't know who to trust.  Just because you are so eager to have a friend, take your time and don't be in a rush.
You may be hanging out with your so called friends.  They may stab you in the back, in the very end.
In this evil world, it may be best to walk alone.  At least you will have a better chance, to return back home.

Why did you take the wrong path, you knew it would cause pain?  Why did you choose this path; you had nothing to gain?
Why did you take the wrong path, landing you in jail?  Make sure you get on the right path, so your Soul don't end up in Hell.
Why did you take the wrong path, filled with alcohol and drugs?  Living in a place not clean, all you could see is bugs.
Why did you take the wrong path, hanging out with those who start trouble?  When you really need them, you'll be left alone, as in a big bubble.

I have been so cold, for so many times, but this particular cold, can freeze a person's mind.
To be out in the cold, this is no joke.  You put on everything to keep warm, even your leather coat.
At any given moment, you can freeze like an ice pop.  When everything is numb, you may have to hop.
My heart goes out, to those who are old.  I hate to see them shivering, down to their toes.
Many have no one around, to assist them in the cold.  I've seen them in wheelchairs and walkers on ice, because someone failed to clear the roads.
They are forced to go out in the cold, because there is no help.  Someone need to give them assistance, then your love will be felt.

This is not just your world; you can't do what you want.  When it comes to doing wrong, there are too many signs that say "Don't!"
This is not just your world; you have to abide by the law.  There are people watching everywhere, they will tell what they saw.
This is not just your world; why not join in and help others.  You should be about unity, you never know they could be your brother.
This is not just your world; are you contributing to the human race?  This is something that you can do fast, or take time and go at your pace.
This is not just your world; join in with those who are around.  Learn to help uplift each other, to help excel far from off the ground.
By, Sandra Juanita Nailing
This time around, will you do something new?  Will you try to be better, in all you say and do?
This time around, will people be treated with respect?  Will you refrain from getting angry, getting people upset?
This time around, will you take care of the poor?  Will you provide a contribution, when they knock on your door?
This time around, will you share your smile?  Will you go out your way, to go the extra mile?
This time around, will you show that you care?  If someone really needed you, will you try to be there?
This time around, will you be determined to change?  At the end of the year, would you have lived up to your name?
By, Author & Poet, Sandra Juanita Nailing
You are going through so much stress, it constantly hangs around. Someday, you will receive assistance, to help you get off the ground.
The problems you may face today, will not last forever.  There will be those around to help, so you can work together.
You must remember we go through life, in different kinds of seasons.  Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall produces all kind of reasons.
Your stress, your problems, and your season, they all are going to pass.  No matter what are going on, remember, it will not last.

DO YOU CARRY YOURSELF, IN A MANNER THAT PEOPLE LOOK UP TO YOU?  OR, DO THEY HAVE A GREAT FEAR, NOT KNOWING WHAT TO RIGHTFULLY DO?
DO PEOPLE LOOK UP TO YOU, OR ARE THEY AFRAID?  DO THEY FIND THEMSELVES NERVOUS, BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU SAID,
DO PEOPLE LOOK UP TO YOU, BECAUSE OF YOUR PLEASANT SMILE?  DO THEY SEE YOUR MODEST DRESS, ADORNED IN A UNIQUE STYLE?
DO PEOPLE LOOK UP TO YOU, BECAUSE ALL HATRED IS GONE?  YOU NOTICE THEY LOVE TO COME AROUND, BECAUSE YOU MAKE THEM FEEL SO WARM.
BY, AUTHOR & POET, SANDRA JUANITA NAILING
THERE ARE PEOPLE, WHO DO NOT HAVE YOUR BACK.  THEY STAND ON THE SIDE LINE, JUST TO WATCH YOU CRACK.
THEY WALK AROUND WITH A SMILE, THAT IS NOT REAL.  THEY ARE THE ONES, YOUR JOY THEY AIM TO STEAL.
THEY ARE THE PEOPLE, TO HINDER YOU, FROM GETTING AHEAD.  THEY WANT YOU TO TAKE HEED, TO EVERY WORD THAT'S SAID.
THEY ARE THE PEOPLE, WHERE MERCY DOES NOT EXIST.  WHEN TRYING TO GET CLOSE TO THEM, THEY ALWAYS RESIST.
BY, AUTHOR & POET,  SANDRA JUANITA NAILING
Let's put old things behind us, and reach towards the new.  Let's put our whole heart, into the things we do.
Let's leave behind, all the hurts and pain.  You are so special; you have so much to gain.
Let's make this new year, one of our very best.  Be determined that you're going to make it; be determined to past each test.

Time out for violence, to continue in the Streets.  We are tired of seeing our young, constantly get beat.
Time out to continue, and eagerly join bad gangs.  You can only lose your life, as you proudly display their  name.
Time out to shooting the innocent, while enjoying a drive by.  It's time to get rid of the pleasure, of watching people die.
Time out to have Policemen, pulling their guns in vain.  Only to find our youth was innocent, making their parents go insane.
By, Author & Poet, Sandra Juanita Nailing
Time out from hearing bad news, we hear it all the time.  We would like to hear something good, that will give us peace of mind.
Time out from hearing bad news, we know about the plane that's lost.  Tell us our taxes will not increase, and they'll be at a very low cost.
Time out from hearing bad news, about the ship that over turned.  Can we hear about a promotion, therefore, more money will be earned.
Time out from hearing bad news, about the tragic mud slide.  Report something that will bring us joy, right before our eyes.
Time out from hearing bad news, we pray for those who have Ebolo.  
We need something that will lift us high, please don't bring us lower.
For the past two months, we have heard nothing but the bad.  Something need to be done in this world, to encourage people, so once again they can be glad.
By, Sandra Juanita Nailing
In this world we are living in, everyone is calling.  You rush out quick as you can, to help those who are falling.
There need to be a time, to really take a break.  There need to be a moment, to do something nice, just for your sake.
In this world we are living in, you already produced so much good.  If you failed in any way; you did what you could.
Give your body a vacation, even if it is at home.  There will come a time, you may have to hide the phone.
Remember you are SPECIAL, so cuddle up with a pillow, and quickly rest your head.  You may do this on the floor or couch, better yet, within your bed.

Wouldn't it be nice like the past, to spend money, if the Economy wasn't so cold?
You use to buy so much for pennies, in the days of old.
Wouldn't it be nice like the past, if the prices weren't so high?  Today if you bought an item; you would just about die.
Wouldn't it be nice like the past, to pay your bills?  Today to pay them off, will probably take years.
Wouldn't it be nice like the past, to easily get a quick loan?  Today if you fail to suddenly pay it off, they'll put you out of your home.
Wouldn't it be nice like the past, to purchase groceries on credit, from the Corner Market?  Today you find yourself broke, without a dime in your pocket.

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.
By, Author & Poet, Sandra Juanita Nailing
Some people are so mean, they don't mind hurting the ones they suppose to love.  They really need much help, from our God above.
There are people; you don't care to be around.  You just get so tired of them, always putting you down.
Deep in your heart; you are screaming out for peace.  You can't wait to the day, all of this will cease.
We have only a short time, to live within our land.  We need to show our love ones, all the peace we can.
By, Author & Poet, Sandra Juanita Nailing
I would like to wish that lonely Mom a" Happy Mother's Day!"  May you find some type of joy, that may come your way.
You will always be a Mom, no matter what.  I want you to go on in life, and remember, to never give up.
May this day allow you, to have peace and rest.  In all that you do, may it bring out your very best.
In case there is no one around, or if no one is there; please receive these words, and know that I really care.  
I know how it feel to be all alone.  Yet, God gave me a song with a beautiful tone.
"Happy Mother's Day!" Resist the temptation to feel down.  Just cling on to this poem, knowing that I care, even though I may not be around.

God has his special children that He has anointed.  They have been called by God, because they have been appointed.
Never get in trouble with them, because God has their back.  Don't get in a fight with them; you might just crack.
God has His special children, to carry out His plan.  You can find them everywhere, throughout every land.
Never touch His anointed, it's a dangerous thing.  They are always protected, until He comes again.
By, Sandra Juanita Nailing
There are so many people who really have it hard.  They wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for the Lord.
Some had to go through life with very poor health.  All because of this, they depleted all of their wealth.
There are some people who long to wear a smile.  They just can't find anyone, to go the extra mile.
There are some people who knows nothing but pain.  If only you could help, there will be so much to gain.
We should learn to keep our lips closed, until we walk in someone's shoes.  They need only to be encouraged, and never again abused.
By, Author & Poet, Sandra Juanita Nailing
We live in a world, that's loaded down with greed.  Man will do anything for money, falling to do a good deed.
Man will take a chance, to traffic people across the boarder.  They pack them in like sardines, and like a selfish hoarder.
We will never stop allowing drugs, from entering our land.  Men thinks that they are cleaver, by planting drugs, within the body of man.
With the technology we have, something  need to be done.  The slavery of woman who 's brought to our country, to them, it's not fun.
By, Sandra Juanita Nailing
I think about my ancestors, how they were treated so bad.  I think about the toil they suffered, it really makes me mad.
I think about the people, who knew  they could lend a happen hand.  Some just set idly by, this too makes me sad.
I ask myself a question; what can I do to correct the past?  I believe I have the answer; one I finally thought of at last.
I must never turn my head, to those who are looking for help.  I must do my very best, to see that love is felt.
I must never look away to conditions people live in.  If I do, it would only be a sin.
By, Sandra J. Nailing
WE LIVE IN AN EVIL WORLD WHERE PEOPLE JUST DON'T CARE.  YOU CAN WATCH THEM PULL ONE ANOTHER DOWN, JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE.
PEOPLE NEED TO BE TREATED WITH RESPECT, EVERYWHERE YOU GO.  MAKE THEM FEEL UPLIFTED, NOT LIKE SOMETHING LOW.
PEOPLE NEED TO BE TREATED WITH RESPECT, WHILE THEY ARE IN THIS LIFE.  THEY DO NOT NEED TO BE AROUND HATRED, AND A LIFE FILLED WITH STRIFE.
PEOPLE NEED TO BE TREATED WITH RESPECT, AND FEEL GENUINE LOVE.  DONT FORGET TO SHARE IT, START BY GIVING THEM A HUG.
BY, AUTHOR & POET,  SANDRA JUANITA NAILING
Have you heard that trouble is all over the world?  Africa is missing hundreds of it's girls.
Have you heard that China is in a struggle, concerning a big ship, bringing in oil?  They seem to be fighting each other, as they go through so much toil.
Have you heard here in the United States, fires have been burning out of control.  They look like tornados, swirling high in the air, looking very bold.
Have you heard Malaysia, still haven't found Flight 370 Plane.  The News that we hear today, is the very same.
Have you heard Korea lost so many school children, while traveling on a ship.  The Captain was one of the first to escape, while watching the ship flip.
Trouble has no respect, as to where it will land.  It's important to remain strong, so those who are watching, will be able to stand.

True children of God have one objective in mind.  It's only to do God's Will, at his appointed time.
True children of God, do not get involved, with the cares of this world.  They ask the Lord to change their lives, into His Beautiful Pearl.
True children of God, continue to shine God's Light.  Lord, lead us in the right direction, morning, noon and night.
True children of God, resist the temptation to fear.  They have a close relationship with the Father, as they both draw near.
True children of God, care about the condition of mankind.  They are willing to help those, standing in any kind of line.
True children of God, are willing to share a smile.  They are even willing, to go the extra mile.

Color is not meant, to separate or divide.  It's meant to be adored, by the pupils of your eyes.
Color is not meant, to be yelled as an ugly insult.  It's meant to be expressed, to bring about a result.
Color is not meant, to  be looked down or frowned upon.  It's meant to paint a beautiful picture, of something that might be fun.
Color is not meant, to be put up as a sign.  It's meant to be complimented, with objects of a lovely design.
Color is not meant, to put one against the other.  It's meant to unite as one, a nation as one brother.

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.

MAY MY HANDS BE UNDEFILED , TO BRING HEALING TO THE WEAK.  SINCE GOD HAS MADE MY HANDS A MASTERPIECE, MAY THIS HEALING NEVER CEASE.
MAY MY HANDS  BE UNDEFILED, TO PRODUCE PURITY.  MAY I FOREVER KEEP THEM CLEAN, ALLOWING THE WORLD TO SEE.
MAY MY HANDS BE UNDEFILED, TO MASSAGE IN THE GOOD.  MAY THEY TEACH OUR YOUTH OF TODAY, TO DO WHAT THEY RIGHTFULLY SHOULD.
MAY MY HANDS BE UNDEFILED, TO POINT  PEOPLE TO THE LIGHT.  MAY THEY ALWAYS BE A GOOD EXAMPLE, BEFORE EVERYONE'S SIGHT.
BY, AUTHOR & POET, SANDRA JUANITA NAILING
This can be an evil world, no one is willing to assist those, who are truly in need.  They can't seem to find it in their heart, to step up and do a good deed.  
We need to build a bond that will bring about unity.  This is the only way, our brothers and sisters can be free.
At an early age, teach your children how to share.  Teach them not to be selfish, concerning people welfare.  
They need to learn, we are not on this earth alone.  To keep people from dying, help find the homeless a home.  
They need to see everyone are not like them.  But they can prevent, even the old, eyes from going dim.
We all need to stand up, for unity.  Perhaps, a chain reaction will occur, that the entire world can see.
By, Sandra Juanita Nailing
What if people had a year of unity and not violence, each and everyday?  Better yet, why not have it eliminated, removing it, far out the way?
What if people came together in unity, and not violence aiming to fight?  Why can't they all make up their minds, only to do what's right?
What if people made a decision, to help clean up our land?  This can began to come about, by joining hand in hand.
What if people helped, to get rid of every gun?  Allowing the world to know this is nothing fun.
We need to put thumbs down for violence, and let unity prevail.  God can bring this about, so we don't end up in jail
By, Author & Poet, Sandra Juanita Nailing
There should always be order, in the planning of your day.  You should stand behind, whatever you do and say  
There's nothing like confusion, not knowing which way to go.  When asked for daily plans, have something there to show.
If you say you are a leader, remember others are following you.  They have to see that you are there, to safely take them through.
Being unorganized can really be rough.  Not finding what you're looking for, can really be tough.
Be ready to present yourself in an organized manner.  People will then follow you, because of you wearing the banner!

I am unwilling, to do anything wrong.  I refuse to cause my Sisters and Brothers any type of harm.
I am unwilling, to inflict anyone pain.  I don't want them to hurt, healing is what they should gain.
I am unwilling, to intentionally hold you back.  I'll see that you move forward, and not suffer lack.
I am unwilling, to watch anyone starve.  I will provide food for them, because they are having it hard.
I am unwilling, to listen to foul words.  As a little child, sentences from the Bible is what the family heard.

Valentine is a day that's very unique.  Not just for the haughty, but also for the meek.
This is a day hearts  have a special rhythm, and are close to each other's beat,
and they receive from each other, all types of treats.
Valentine Day is a day, one you don't have to seek.  It's a day you hold close to your heart, a day you will always keep.
Valentine is a day you may be given white Doves, flying around your feet.  Others may be given different roses, red, white or pink.
Valentine is a day you better not forget, but it's a day to use your mind, it's important that you think.
By, Sandra Juanita Nailing
VALENTINE, VALENTINE WHERE ARE YOU?  I DEPEND UPON YOUR LOVE, TO HELP ME MAKE IT THROUGH.
VALENTINE, VALENTINE YOU ARE ON MY MIND.  WITHOUT HAVING YOU IN MY LIFE;  I CAN'T SEEM TO SHINE.
VALENTINE, VALENTINE, OH WHAT A GLORIOUS DAY.  YOU MEAN SO MUCH TO ME; I DON'T HAVE WORDS TO SAY.
VALENTINE, VALENTINE I LOVE TO SEE YOUR SMILE.  EVEN IN THE CLOTHES YOU WEAR, I TRULY LOVE YOUR STYLE.
VALENTINE, VALENTINE MAY OUR LOVE REIGN FOREVER.  WOULD IT EVER DEPART, TO THIS I  WILL SAY,"NEVER?"

WHEN WE GO TO THE POLLS, WHY NOT VOTE FOR PEACE?  AFTER BECOMING A WINNER, NEVER LET IT CEASE.
WHEN WE GO TO THE POLLS, WE MUST REMEMBER, TO CHECK THE RIGHT BOX.  I REALIZE I VOTED FOR PEACE, THEREFORE, I WILL NEVER BE MOCKED.
WHEN WE GO TO THE POLLS, WE SHOULD HAVE ONE VOTE ON OUR MINDS.  PEACE IS WHAT WE ARE FIGHTING FOR, MAY IT COME RIGHT ON TIME.
WHEN WE GO TO THE POLLS, I HOPE WE ALL VOTED FOR PEACE.  WHEN THE VICTORY OF PEACE IS WON, WE WILL HAVE A GREAT FEAST.

Wake up, my people; life is passing by.  Are you willing to see how, to wipe a tear from someone's eye?
Look a little closer.  What do you see?  Are you available, to help others to be free?
Wake up, my people; life is passing by.  There is so much to be done, instead of watching someone die.
You may not possess much, use what's in your hand.  Many things are going on, help heal our hurting land.

War can be tormenting, for those who suffered pain.  The protection of this Country, was not in vain.
War can be tormenting, to save lives so others can live.  To present themselves a sacrifice, was the best that they could give.
War can be tormenting, not knowing what to expect.  Someone holding a gun up to your head, provoking you to get upset.
War can be tormenting, enduring the noises that are extremely loud.
Also, dealing with half naked people, leaping out of trees, acting strange and wild.
War can be tormenting, putting the fighters nerves on edge.  Yet, they remain true to their Country, all because of their "Pledge."

Was Flight 370 A 'Zombie' Plane, to hear a report like this, to me it sounds insane.  Our Reporters are afraid to face the truth, so they are using a new name.
Now the families have to add a new word to their vocabulary, 'Zombie,'   a word I think is lame.
I can't wait to hear the new word, they have planed for tomorrow.  Yet, my heart goes out to the families, whose heart is bathed in sorrow.
May the real Reporter stand up, and began to tell the truth.  Use what your parents have taught, in the days of your youth.
You can clearly  see the families are grieving very hard.  Since you do not have any facts, allow them to seek the Lord.

We have leaders of our land, who are constantly in control.  Would it be possible, to ask them, to produce healthy television shows.
When a person sit down, for a pleasant evening, to watch a decent show; they find themselves turning the channels confused, not knowing which way to go.
Movie stars are in Hollywood, do they really care?  
We understand why people become "Copy Cats", to bad shows seen on the air.  
If you plan to clean up our land, it's important that you do your part.  If I were in your shoes, today would be a good start.

IT'S VERY IMPORTANT, TO WATCH THE COMPANY YOU KEEP.  SOME COULD BE TROUBLE MAKERS, OR SOME COULD BE NEAT.
IT'S VERY IMPORTANT, ABOUT THE COMPANY YOU HANG AROUND.  IT'S BEST TO STICK WITH PEOPLE THAT PICK YOU UP, NOT THOSE WHO PUT YOU DOWN.
IT'S VERY IMPORTANT, TO HANG OUT WITH COMPANY, WHO NEVER CAUSE ANY TROUBLE.  STAY AWAY FROM THOSE, CAUSING YOU TO RUN FOR COVER.
IT'S VERY IMPORTANT, TO HANG AROUND THOSE, YOU'LL BE ABLE TO LEARN.  YOU'LL BE ABLE TO PRESENT YOURSELF IN A MANNER, WHEN IT COMES YOUR TERM.

Water was given to man, it's important that we use it.  There is no need to walk around, making others sick.
Water is a cleanser; why not take a drink?  It will help cleanse every cell, allowing you to think.
Water can revive, even a dying man.  Check out the ones you see, out in the desert sand.
Water can be daily used, to keep you clean and refreshed.  It will make you feel  so good, therefore, you can do your best.

We live in a country where we have it made.  We're able to stand up for ourselves, while being brave.
We can go to to our kitchen, and turn the facet on.  Yet, we waste so much water, caring less if it's  gone.
Over in other countries, people walk many miles for water, with a bucket on their head.  This water is used to cook and clean their children, before going to bed.
We live in a country where we fight for expensive shoes to wear.  While looking on your shoe rack, you can't choose exactly which pair.
Over in other countries, people don't have shoes on their feet.  They walk near and far barefoot, in the burning heat.
We live in a country where we have so mush food.  Look at the amount we waste, and the amount of food we abuse.
Over in other countries, they have little to eat.  Their children are poorly nourished, from their head down to their feet.

Welcome to a better life, and not one of defeat.  Away with the disappointments of your past, and embrace something unique.
Welcome to a better life, one in which you can change.  If you want to be a better person, I'm sure this can be arrange.
Welcome to a better life, where you can have success.  You're bound to soar high like an Eagle, when you constantly do your best.
Welcome to a better life, dismiss the things and words, that you know are not true.  It's only the truth in life, that will safely carry you through.
Welcome to a better life, and not one that will depress.  But a life that you can feel, and not afraid to get properly dressed.
Welcome to a better life, where you will be able to smile.  This will give you encouragement, to assist in going the extra mile.

Another year has come and gone, and its trials and test.  In spite  of what we've been through, it brought out our best.
There are no need to go through anything, if you are not going to change.  We can gain much strength and wisdom, as our lives are rearranged.
From January to December, so much has taken place.  It was only by the help of God, we are still alive by His Grace.
There are people like friends and loved ones, who are no longer here.  God has allowed us to keep standing, to the last day of the year.  
May we all look forward, to a year of something new.
Remember you can make a difference, in all you say and do.

We live in a world with nothing but unrest.  We find it very hard, to bring out our best.
People in the Ukraine and Russia can't seem to get along.  With all of the fussing and fighting, someone is bound to be harmed.
Also, in this world, the weather is out of control, in every land.  Mud slides are killing so many people, buried under what is like quicksand.
Strange things are happening, with different planes up in the air.  Fires on the ground is breaking out, just about everywhere.
People are now dying over in African, from" Ebola," in which there is no cure.  We cry out for World Peace this is the only thing that's pure.
When will we have a world, filled with nothing but peace?  Or, will we continue to fight, not willing to let it cease?

Were you the one, who paid for the hungry person's meal?  Or, did you sit back and watch him fumble for money, he knew he could not feel?
Were you the one, who dropped off food and clothes, for the homeless?  Or, did you fail to contribute to the need, failing to give out your best?
Were you the one, to pass out new shoes?  Or, are you the type of person, who rather not be used?  
Were you the one, to pay for a family's bill?  Or, are you the type to hang around, so you can receive a good deal?
Were you the one, to encourage someone who was sad?  Or, did you just walk around, thinking, "Im Bad?"
WHICH ONE?

We will not go back, to live our lives as slaves.  We even hate to think about, all those evil days.
We will not go back, to working in the hot sun.  Just try to get us to do so, like lightening we will run.
We will not go back, to constantly holding our heads down.  But, we will look you straight in the eyes, not even having a frown.
We will not go back, to not knowing how to read.  We will be filled with knowledge, passing it on to our seed.
We will not go back, because God has set us free.  He is the only one who has control, over you and me.
We Will Not Go Back!

What are you afraid of, I hope it's not man?  He came from the dust; we are all like the sand.
What are you afraid of, I hope it's not life?  You are going to make it, continue to do what's right.
What are you afraid of, I hope it's not success?  No one can hinder you, when you are determined to do your best.
What are you afraid of, could it be fame?  If you remember to stay humble, God will promote your name.
What are you afraid of, could it be the gossip you hear?  To ignore those flapping lips, will cause you not to fear.

What can I do, to stop the violence in the Streets?  What can I do,  to stop seeing dead bodies at my feet?
What can I do, to show there is a better way?  What can I do, to teach people how to pray?
What can I do, to teach the young how to read?  What can I do, to make sure good comes from my seeds?
What can I do, to allow my light to shine?  What can I do, to rescue the young in time?

What can we do, to make a life of Peace?  What part can we play, to allow the violence to cease?
What can we do, to get the guns off the Streets?  Can we arrange a place, for all of us to meet?
What can we do, to turn this world around?  Who will step up to the plate, to pull all prejudice down?
What can we do, to get rid of drugs?  Instead of bringing it to the light, stop sweeping it under a rug.
What can we do, to stop giving our young people strong drinks?  They really need their brain cells, so they can be able to think.
What can we do, to stop people from getting ****?  This should be first on our list, we should quickly make this a date.
