WE CAN'T SEE
A sad presumption
A victom of consumption
Jumpin at sales on TV
We Can't See
Noisy Chatter
It clouds what really matters
Searching for things we can't see
We Can't See
We Can't See
Go out and swim in the ocean
or lie under the sun and keep roasting
We Can't See
Go outside and climb a tree
or take a long drive across the country
We Can't see
We Can't see
Listen we’re nourished by Cell phones,
Nourished by IPODS and Texting
Video games all for me
We Can't see
We’re eating fast food
We’re ridin in fancy cars
My connection on my cell phone has 5 bars
Buy one and get one for free
We can't see
We Can't See
Go out and swim with the dolphins
or grab a pole some bait and go fishing
We Can't See
Go out and tour and see great lands
or raging rivers, great seas and small islands
We Can't see
We Can't see
A thousand and eighty pixels
A 60 inch plazma TV
An electronic blindfold of fantasy
We Can't see
go out and swim in the ocean
or lie under the sun and keep roasting
We' Can't see
go outside and climb a tree
or take a long drive across the country
We Can't see
We Can't see
A sad presumption
A victom of consumption

What will it be like, to have no fear
At which moment, will this be now
When it

Autobiography
Life is a series of chapters
And as the latest concludes
I look to new beginnings
And which storylines
Carry forward
by Jishi Santos
This is now so get real
and stop iiving in the past.
As for the future
well you don't know
you may not even last.
So
by Hatif Abdali
This is now
I am a man just waking up from the dream of time
The dream where every thing seems to keep you in line
The laws
