Bohemian Rhapsody with Mnozil Brass

It is not often that I am moved by a song played, but this was a surprise that needs to be heard. This is more than the the spoken word,,, Simply the played word!

Door To Decision

We come from a turbulent past
To an info-age moving way to fast
The fate of these lands
Is now placed in our hands

Will we bring destruction to an end
Will we have the power to mend
Save this fragile dreamland
Wash away our footprints in the sand

Global warming is causing weather changes right before our eyes
But we still blacken our skies
Sunrays take less time to burn our faces
But we still destroy our rain forests and just leave empty spaces

The men spill out of the factories everywhere
Punching their time clocks basically unaware
Don�t realize what's happening to the big picture
The massive devastation of the atmospheric mixture

Every day go through their daily motions
Waiting it out for measly promotions
Distant stares and silent prayers
Monday to Friday . . . say goodbye

Our oceans are slicked with oil spills
Our waterways full of toxic waste that kills
We build our cities on mountains of pollution
Without an environmental solution

We live our lives in search of wealth
In the process damage our good health
Crime stories are found on every newspaper page
People loosing control in an uncertain age

The victims of greed are getting younger
In a world that still allows their hunger
Our petty problems make us hang down our heads
While million's go unfed

Desire unfolds the light of our day
But we cannot give in to the subtle decay
We must rise above the haze descending
Toward mass action mending

We must take control of our actions today
or the children of tomorrow will be the one's to pay
The new innkeepers shall soon take charge
of the next generation�s voyage at large

Trends are patterned and patterns trended
But man's damage must be ended!

Hate is

Martin Luther King:
Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.
Hate paralyzies life; Love releases it.
Hate confuses life; Love harmonizes it.
Hatred darkens life; Love illuminates it
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
