A tree is a perennial woody plant. It most often has many secondary branches supported clear of the ground on a single main stem or trunk with clear apical dominance. A minimum height specification at maturity is cited by some authors, varying from 3 m to 6 m; some authors set a minimum of 10 cm trunk diameter (30 cm girth). Woody plants that do not meet these definitions by having multiple stems and/or small size are usually called shrubs, although many trees such as Mallee do not meet such definitions. Compared with most other plants, trees are long-lived, some reaching several thousand years old and growing to up to 115 m (379 ft) high.
Trees are an important component of the natural landscape because of their prevention of erosion and the provision of a weather-sheltered ecosystem in and under their foliage. They also play an important role in producing oxygen and reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, as well as moderating ground temperatures. They are also elements in landscaping and agriculture, both for their aesthetic appeal and their orchard crops (such as apples). Wood from trees is a building material, as well as a primary energy source in many developing countries. Trees also play a role in many of the world's mythologies (see trees in mythology).
Kendrick Lamar Duckworth (born June 17, 1987), simply known as Kendrick Lamar, is an American rapper and songwriter from Compton, California currently signed to Top Dawg, Aftermath and Interscope. He first gained major attention after the release of his 2010 mixtape Overly Dedicated. In 2011, his album Section.80, released exclusively through iTunes, instantly ranked as one of the top digital hip hop releases of the year. Lamar has amassed a large internet following, is a member of hip hop collective Black Hippy, along with Jay Rock, Schoolboy Q and Ab-Soul, and has worked with Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Wiz Khalifa, Game, Drake, Busta Rhymes and Tech N9ne among other popular artists.
Neon Trees is an American alternative rock band from Provo, Utah, with origins in Murrieta, California. The band received nationwide exposure in late 2008 when they opened several North American tour dates for the band The Killers. Not long after, the band was signed by Mercury Records and released their first full length album, Habits, in 2010. Their first single "Animal" climbed to #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #1 on the Alternative rock Chart.
Formed initially by neighbors Tyler Glenn (vocals, keyboards) and Chris Allen (guitar, vocals) the band made its first home in Provo, eventually adding Branden Campbell (bass guitar, vocals) and Elaine Bradley (drums, percussion, vocals) to the lineup. David Charles also plays with the band as touring guitarist. They first started playing under the name Neon Trees in late 2005 with five original members. The band's name originates from the lighted trees on the In-N-Out Burger signs, which inspired Tyler Glenn. In a strange twist of fate, it was later learned that Branden Campbell's father, who designed neon lights in Las Vegas, helped design the very lights that inspired Glenn. The band is well-known throughout Provo and Salt Lake City, Utah, where it was formed. All four members of Neon Trees are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Trees
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
Poem by Joyce Kilmer (1886-1918)
Music written in 1922 by Oscar Rasbash
Well, once I was a lover
With beautiful long brown hair
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
When I walk down any street
Men would stop and stare
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Boys would whistle
And their eyes would shine
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
My skirt would swish
To show my long strong legs so fine
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
So fine
Was a time, I was a mother
Darling children would come for me
I loved them and I'd feed them
And in their eyes such love I'd see
They'd call my name in times of need
And I'd be there
(And they loved me)
And they loved me
(And we loved you)
And I loved them
(And they loved me)
And they loved me
(And we loved you)
Once I was a man
My cock as hard as wood
I stood as strong as any tree
Look back, the winds are catching me
So, my woman, love me
And you know I am strong
I was raised and nude as trees
I stood
My baby loves me
(My baby loves me)
My baby loves me
(My baby loves me)
My baby loves me
(My baby loves me)
I was back to this time itself
Deep and sharp within my empty cell
A comedy of errors I've become
And all my devils, I forgot
And on my name or where I've come
Someone take me back to the fields
Where I need to be
So once again I can stand tall and feel
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
[Chorus: Baby Bash & Angel Dust]
Let's take it to Miami, daddy, out to Miami
Let's take it out to Georgie, sugar, Atlanta, Georgia
Let's take it out to Cali, daddy, to California
Let's take it New York and meet a gang of New Yorkers
Cause I love 'em all
In and out of the mall
In and out of some cars, that I, just barely bought
What, ever it be
Cash or currency
Mami can take picture, I promise to say "Trees!" (Trees!)
[Hook: Baby Bash & Angel Dust]
Dun, guh-dun-guh-dun-gun, dun
Let's take it down to Texas, where they be gettin' wreckless
Dirty dirt
Dun, guh-dun-guh-dun-gun, dun
Let's take it to Chicago, back, to Colorado

Ain't nothin' wrong with a little bit of lightweight thang
They want me to sound my name (WHO BE US!)
Autograph
V-Town, all the phat
Take a picture with ya phone number, not attached
Off to Sweden, I was leavin' them with horn attacks
Somebody gets to clownin' and we all of that [laughing]
This muh'fucker got jokes
On the way
To the show
With my folks
Na-da-da-da-da
From the Bay, to L.A., down to Monte Ray

To all you Unsigned Hype, without a limelight
Here's a sneak peak
For your ass when the time's right
[Repeat Chorus & Hook]
[Verse 2: Pitbull]
Damn, diggy-diggy, damn, damn
Mami over there's off that chingy-chang, chang
Where you from
Cali, they do the damn thang
I'm a take ya to Texas
Where they slow it down, mayne
Forget crackin', screw and chop it, to make a profit
Miami, Atlanta, the land of the Choppers
Where they used to pump bass to keep the fiends crunk
Now we get crunk when the bass pump (What?)
They ain't ready for what's about to happen
?? put it down with Dominicans in Manhattan
Dite, que venga
I got the Latins on lock
Going to Murdoch's mountain to lay down my thoughts
Passing through the valley of stones for my mind has wandered here
Barren land of beauty the sun has burnt a scar upon your face
Under harvest moons I discovered your ways
I shall follow the river of sand to the South
See the mountains rise where the sky gives way to Murdoch's might
Always feeling brighter your own mysterious life freezes
Slipping under the shroud that the mountain now holds
Murdoch tempted me here gave me pennies to lend
Sang so sweetly of sleep that I couldn't wait to get to the end
Black-beaked crow cry a warning of oncoming rain
Give your wings to the mountain your body to the starving earth
Brighter still the flower of life may grow away from the sun
Knowing that with darkness a new light has come
Murdoch beckons me now calls me brother not friend
Speaks so sadly of life that I can't wait to get to the end
Cold winds blow in the face of all hope that is born
Eastward comes but the fire of the North will not hold to southern skies
Even earthly silence cannot control the spinning wheels of time
This is Murdoch's mountain no green hill of life
When you got a gun, you can do as you please
spraying your bullets like it was a disease
People packing pieces like its going out of business
Evolutionary process survival of the sickest
Your right to bear I've got to bear that right
well I reserve my right not to get shot tonight
I've got no gun in this wild wild west
Well I'll rest in peace when the pieces rest
Rat a tat tat it happens just like that
don't even know your shot
until you got one in the back
Now your just another victim
now you're just another stat
Now your dead your dead
you ain't never coming back
>From channel to channel from station to station
TV is the drug that has numbed the nation
You're so horrified but you're so fascinated
so the violence just keeps on escalating
PRAISE THE AMMUNITION
A piece without a puzzle a puzzle with no peace
I reach for my revolver I reach for my release
Mass murder in America
a sad but true tradition
I'm armed to the teeth for my own salvation
I'm a twisted man with a twisted grip
and I got the whole world at my finger tip
A pistol packing preacher in a gun toting nation
pass the Lord and praise the ammunition
All for one
One for all
Untied we stand
Divided we fall
All of us or none of us
Everyone or None
All of us or none of us at all
All for one
One for all
United we stand,
divided we fall
One people, one race, one life
It's time we get it right
What the hell are we fighting for
Red in the face for a race war
Take a good look at our history
Shouldn't really come as a mystery
Take a good look back at our past
It's not about race
It's all about class
Are not all people created equal in the eyes of God
Are not all people in the world today find themselves at desperate odds
Freedom in a land where
Freedom isn't free
What's it going to take to make
the people see
The enemy isn't you or me
All for one
One for all
United we stand
Divided we fall
All of us or none of us
Everyone or none
All of us or none of us
See them falling hear them calling it's everywhere it's everyplace
Time's at hand it's time to stand I'm firmly put face to face
Blood and bone I'm not alone bare my heart bear my soul
Battle's here the battle's clear
Overthrow all control
People will have a lot to fear
When there's no oxygen in the atmosphere
Everyone will die while they're holding their breath
And we'll all swim in our own polluted death
YOU MUST UNDERSTAND
WE MUST SAVE THE LAND
WE'RE NOT JUST A BAND
WE'LL KILL FOR THE LAND
Greenhouse effect was anticipated
But everybody sat around watched and waited
When the enviable came to be
They all begged for God's mercy
Better come up with a final solution
And figure a way to deal with all this deadly pollution
We need some action and some action soon
False, Fake, You're fucking 2faced
Fake motherfuckers try to fade me
So you think you have it made in the shade
'cause now you're getting paid yeah now you're getting laid
You're making ducats by the buckets
But I say fuck it, you're just another puppet
You're a puppet but who pulls the strings
When you're up on the stage and you dance sing
I'm coming on the level
You're dancing with the devil
Just to play the role you'd sell your very soul
Fake motherfuckers try to fade me, fake motherfuckers are gonna fade
Your whole culture circles like a vulture in the skies
Believing all the lies that are televised
A whole nation hypnotized
You live your life like a T.V. show
You don't even know you're a traitor
Chalk up another fake motherfucker
Don't be a believer in the system or the leaders
Because it should come as no surprise
A smile in disguise, the Government lies
A forked tongue on everyone that runs
Make no mistake the politicians are fake
But listen up! Here's the real deal
Never ever fake what you feel
Sally, free and easy,
That should be her name.
Sally, free and easy,
That should be her name.
Took a sailor's lovin'
For a nursery game.
Oh, the heart she gave him
Was not made of stone.
Oh, the heart she gave him
Was not made of stone.
It was sweet and hollow
Like a honeycomb.
Think I'll wait till sunset,
See the ensign down.
Think I'll wait till sunset,
See the ensign down.
Then I'll take the tideway,
To my buryin' groun'
Sally, free and easy,
That should be her name.
Sally, free and easy,
That should be her name.
When my body's landed
Hope she'll die o' shame.
Die Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die,
Die, Diedum
Searching the water, follow a line
Rose petals ripple round a swimming swan
When god was lonely, song was sung
A tune to echo, like a dying sun
Die Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die,
Die, Diedum
Find me no reason, teach me no word
Leaves settle slowly, when the autumn comes
When god was lonely, song was sung
A tune to echo, like a dying sun
Die Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die,
Die, Diedum
Die Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die,
Die, Diedum
Wait for the season, rushed by the wind
For we'll do battle, when spring has come
When god was lonely, song was sung
A tune to echo, like a dying, dying sun
Die Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die,
Die, Diedum
Die Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die, Die, Die Die,

Lady Margaret sitting in her own lone home,
Alone, O all alone,
When she thought she heard a dismal cry,
She heard a deadly moan.
"Is it my father Thomas?" she said,
"Or is it my brother John?
Or is it my love, my own dear Willie
Come home to me again?"
"I am not your father Thomas," he said,
"Nor am I your brother John,
But I am your love, your own dear Willie,
Come home to you again."
"Then where are the red and rosy cheeks
That even in winter bloom?
And where is the long and yellow hair
Of the love I lost too soon?"
"The ground have rotten them off, my dear,
For the worms are quick and free,
And when you're so long lying in your grave,
The same will happen thee."
He took her by the lily-white hand
And begged her company;
He took her by her apron band,
Says, "Follow, follow me."
She took her underskirts one by one
And wrapped them above her knee,
And she's over the hills on a winter's night
In a dead man's company.
They walked, they walked to the old churchyard,
Where the grass grow grassy-green:
"Here's the home where I live now,
The bed I do lie in."
"Is there any room at your head, my love,
Is there any room at your feet?
Is there any room about you at all
For me to lie down and sleep?"
"My father is at my head, dear girl,
My mother is at my feet,
Upon my heart are three hell-hounds
Bound my soul to keep.
One is for my drunkenness
And another is for my pride,
And one is for promising a pretty fair girl
That she should be my bride."
She took the cross from all on her bosom
And smoted him on the breast,
"Here's your token I kept so long:
God send you a happy rest."
"Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, my love,
Farewell, dear girl," said he;
"If ever the dead may pray for the living,
My love, I'll pray for thee."
We be soldiers three,
Pardonez-moi, je vous en pris,
Lately come forth of the low country
With never a penny of money.
Here, good fellows, I drink to thee,
Pardonez-moi, je vous en pris
To all good fellows wheree’r they may be
With never a penny of money.
And he that will not pledge me this,
Pardonez-moi, je vous en pris,
Pays for the shot whatever it is
With never a penny of money.
Charge it again, oh, charge it again,
Pardonez-moi, je vous en pris,
As long as there is any ink in the pen
With never a penny of money!
Come all you wild young men and a warning take by me
Never lead your single life astray or into bad company
As I myself have done, being all in the month of may
When i, as pressed by a sea captain, a privateer to
trade
To the east indies we were bound to plunder the raging
main
And it's many the brave and a galliant ship we sent to
a watery grave
Ah, for freeport we did steer, our provisions to renew
When we did spy a bold man-of-war sailing three feet to
our two
Oh, she fired across our bows, ``heave to and don't
refuse
Surrender now unto my command or else your lives you'll
lose''
And our decks they were sputtered with blood
And the cannons did loudly roar
And broadside and broadside a long time we lay
Till we could fight no more
And a thousand times I wished meself alone,
All alone with me polly on the shore
She's a tall and a slender girl with a dark and a-
rolling eye
And here am i, a-bleeding on the deck
And for a sweet saint must die
Farewell, me family and me friends, likewise me polly
too
I'd never have crossed the salt sea wide
If I'd have been ruled by you
And a thousand times I saw meself again,
All alone with me polly on the shore
As I walked under london bridge
One misty morning early,
I overheard a fair, pretty maid,
Lamenting for her geordie.
''my geordie will be hanged with a golden chain,
'tis not the chain of many.
He stole sixteen of the king's royal deer
And he sold them in boeny.''
''go saddle me my milk white steed
Go saddle me my pony
That I may ride to london's courts
To plead for the life of geordie.''
''my geordie never hurt a man nor calf
He never hurted any
He stole sixteen of the king's royal deer
And he sold them in killkenny.''
''two pretty babies have I borne,
The third lies in my body,
And I would part with them every one,
If you pardon my dear geordie.''
But the judge looked over his left shoulder,
He said, ''fair maid, I'm sorry,
I cannot pardon the one you love,
He has been hanged already.''

Question abuse question authority question abuse question abuse of authority and police's use of abuse what you see on your TV us not your true reality conditioned by the system to to brutality don't use your rights you lose your rights and sell all self defenses now they have you where they want and are gonna beat you senseless force-coward!

Little pieces of colored paper
Feel its grip and its will to shape ya
Kneel before the greed
that's gonna rape ya
Call collect to the undertaker
little pieces of colored paper
valued more than its very maker
It is your god
It is your king
It puts a price on everything
Watch the color of our collar
when you steal the almighty dollar
The color of money is the color of greed
That is a shade of green I do not need
It plagues men's hearts
poisons their souls
They make the money
but its in control
You face the facts
then you'd know that its true
its got more of a right to exist than you do
Put a price on your life
My pockets are empty
but my heart is full
and I don't need money
to give my life value
You can buy the land
but you can't buy the Sky
There are some things in this world
that your money can't buy
In the begining from the start its been a conscious effort on my part I'm not caught up in those corrupted ways that pollute our sordid days I'm not afraid of being afraid fear digs heroes as well as graves NOT AFRAID OF BEING AFRAID(4x) It's like growing up in your body and mind and opening up your eyes for the first time I know a lot that you will not understand because you never shook your own death by the hand we're all just made of flesh and bone Born, live our lives,and we die alone A yearn to learn that makes me burn justifiable survival is my concern filling me with an energy white hot nova intensity 'cause I'm a small l blade in a giant field knowledge is a weapon for all to wield sometimes I envy those who can not see our self-inflicted crimes and agonies but in the same bread this will I'd feel bad For all the truth and knowledge that I never had I'm not afraid of being afraid fear digs heroes as well as graves NOT AFRAID OF BEING AFRAID (4x)I've got nothing to fear(x3) I've got nothing to fear but fear and I'm not afraid.

Mexican beer on a Sunday afternoon I got no lime and I got no sunshine
Under New England skies I was born and raised
Raise my glass to the skies to my friends that are in the graves
Got no time to pretend no no never again

Don't appreciate it until someone gets planted
Live like live like you want to live life, right
NOW YOU'RE MEMORIES
Life will survive life look into my eyes
NOW YOU'RE GONE BUT YOU'RE NOT FORGOTTEN

About the Viking probe
Or the photos of
Martian pyramids
The evidence is obvious that there exists another form of
Now on the red planet
Why won't they just admit?
Why won't they let us know?
What the photos show
The evidence is obvious that there exists another form of
Intelligence but mankind just afraid to face themselves
The Great Galactic Ghoul
Has made us look like fools
And in a perfect flight
Smashed a satellite
MATE THE APE, WITH THE ALIEN
THE SEED, THE SERPENT, IN THE GARDEN
IS ALL HUMANITY JUST A BLASPHEMY
MADE IN THE IMAGE OF SOMETHING ODD
I know it sounds bizarre
But there's a face on mars
Why do they hide the fact?
Of alien artifact
While NASA still denies alien life survives
Why won't they let us know?
What the photos show
The evidence is obvious that there exists another form of
Intelligence but mankind just afraid to face themselves with the truth
Out in the depths of space
There lives an ancient race
Did our missing link
I've got a burning seed
Burning deep in me
The war is over but not for me
It will never be
Burning Burning Burning Burning Burning
Burning Burning
The answer my friend
is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
For my country I risked my life
I made the sacrifice
The war is over but not for me
I still pay the price
Contamination is not confirmed
Yet my love still gets burned
And my child is born deformed
What did I do to ever deserve this
I'm still suffering from my service
Once I marched for war,
well I'm not marching anymore
The answer my friend is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
Lost my baby in the Cemetery
Lost my baby in the Cemetery
Driving around with no place to go
How many times has this happened before
Feelings of madness feelings of pain
Don't think I'll ever be the same
Lost my baby in the Cemetery, lost my baby
in the Cemetery
In the graveyard I can't find her grave
Her name got wiped away
Polluted by progress stealing my dreams
Wiping clean my memories
Her epitaph got erased I can't find her resting place
Her name got wiped away, now I have no place to pray
Lost my baby in the Cemetery, lost my baby in the Cemetery
Acid rain wipes the names right off graves
Respect for the living Respect for the dead
Lost my baby in the Cemetery, lost my
baby in the Cemetery
Her epitaph got erased, I can't find her resting place
Her name got wiped away, now I have no place to pray
Lost my baby in the Cemetery, got no place to pray
Lost my baby in the Cemetery, her name got wiped away
Lost my baby in the Cemetery
I used to have fun in the summer sun
but now I have to run for the shade
I used to have fun in the noon day sun
but now its got me headed for an early grave
Like a Deathstar rising in the horizon
you better beware of the tricks
the sunlight plays
I'm not lying out I'll be hiding out
in these last days of ultraviolet rays
The sun has set on my summer Forever
Tick tock goes the clock down to the wire
Feelings fall from my fingertips
Like wax dripping down candlesticks
Express my love yes I did my best
It drags me back to this emptiness
Once again I find myself by myself
Never thought I'd miss your touch so much
LONLINESS BURNS AT ME LIKE A BLOWTORCH
Time moves on but it passes slow
I lost a love I thought I'd never know
Sometimes I wish we never met
And I regret that I can't forget
Never thought I'd miss your touch so much
Sick of using you just to ease my pain
LONINESS BURNS AT ME LIKE A BLOWTORCH
I shall remain as you fade away on me
Sick of using you just to ease my pain
One day I woke up
and I opened my eyes
I saw things I never saw before
One day I woke up
I visualized
I saw things for how they really were
Blind Me Blind Blind Me
One morning I woke up
with the gift of sight
I saw things I never saw before
One morning I woke up
in the middle of a fight
I saw them treat my mom like a whore
Blind me Blind Blind me
When I was young
I opened my eyes
I saw my country lie
I saw my God die
In my desperate search for honesty
All I saw were their lies and treachery
Passing out in parking lots
living low sweating tents
waking up passing out
completely fucking spent
Living low because I'll chance
Living low but I made a thousand dance
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
I learned not to make the same mistakes
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
No I won't break I won't break no
Got you in my rear view
pull me over flashing blues
ask me for some honesty
use it to arrest me
Living low because I'll chance
Living low but I made a thousand dance
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
They can chase me from state to state to state
Beat me down in the cell but I won't break
I won't break I won't
Try to crush my spirit
Can't even get near it
Any dog can bark Why, that is why making love I like creating love i like to create
I suffer from this strange disease for there is no cure only treatment which I can not afford the cause of this disease remains unknown but it's effect yeah I know well so I suffer for no explanation had a dream I scratched my head a large chunk of flesh and hair fell off exposing my naked skull it didn't hurt me so I did it again blood flowed right down my neck showed my friends I suffer from this strange disease they examine me but they can't explain to me the reason for my misery the cause of the disease they can't explain that does not help me when I feel the pain.Suffer......
In a temporary lapse of sanity
You've been subdued by your own false sense of security
You're a prisoner of your own privilege
You fail to see the bars for what they are
NOW YOU'VE BEEN SUBDUED
You live your life exactly how they tell it
You agree no matter how they sell it
An unconscious effort to remain subdued
NOW YOU'VE BEEN SUBDUED
Complain about your life as you waste away
Never flying free from that golden cage
You're a prisoner of your own privilege
Yeehaw
Walking across this Texas desert with
the sun beating on his back
Carries a cross
these burning sands
without leaving a single track
Sing a song a six pack
and praise the lord for your salvation
Second coming up and running from the
federal government's intervention
Blood on the X of Texas
Blood on the X that Texas spilt
Blood on the X of Texas
Blood in the house that David built
Messiah on a six string sings a song
that's in demand
Lone gunman in the Lone Star State
hunts his fellow man
Deep in the heart of Texas the bullet
finds its mark
Deep in the heart of Texas his head
gets blown apart
Blood on the X of Texas like a cross hair
Y'll remember the Alamo but don't you forget about Waco
Blood on the X of Texas
Blood on the X that Texas spilt
Blood on the X of Texas
Blood in the house that David built
Reaching for the bible
like a junkie for the needle
Fucked up fundamentally, you're
fucked up
Leaning on your church
like a cripple on a crutch
There's a white devil among us
There's a white devil in office
Your blind faith has left unforgiven
Wielding your religion
as if it were a weapon
Fucked up fundamentally, you're
fucked up
Lining your pockets
you deceived a believing flock
There's a white devil among us
walking on the right side
White god with blond hair and blue eyes
is a god of lies
Jesus didn't look like that
You know he didn't look like that
I hold all you right wing christians
in suspicion
There's a white devil among us
There's a white devil in office

I'm a victim I'm a victim
I'm a victim of a victimless crime
VOC victim of chance
Victim of circumstance
Victim of society that
holds its false ideology so damn high
In a meat market mentality where
everything is bought and sold
Refuse to buy the capital lie
Refuse to buy the capital lie

I have to come to terms
with the true definition of I
I have to re-evaluate
myself with myself
my own proof of worth
for nobody else
If the Truth be known
I'll always be alone
to think I thought
I knew myself
Truth-let the truth be know
The pain of being my worst enemy
can no longer be endured
the pollution must end
Time to be my best friend
Time to be reborn
in a value of my own
If the Truth be known
I'll always be alone
Truth-let the truth be known
This Land is your Land
this Land is my Land
from California
to the Boston Harbor
from the Redwood forest
to the Gulf stream waters
this Land was made for you and me
As I went rambling that ribbon of highway
I saw above me a polluted skyway
I saw below me a congested highway
This Land was made for you and me
On Sunday morning in the shadow of the steeple
by the welfare office I see my people
They stood there hungry, I stood there screaming
This Land was made for you and me
Nobody out there can ever stop me
when I go walking that Freedom highway
Nobody out there could ever make me turn
This Land was made for you and me
As I went walking I saw a sign there
and on the sign it
said no trespassing
But on the other side it said nothing
The only real way is the highway
Paid my dues singing the blues
not gonna bitch about
the holes in my shoes
Play all night
work all day
travel around the country because I love to play
The only real way is the highway
I get to get on the stage
I get to bend the bars of my vocal range
travel across the land
making payments on the van
We're gonna rock as hard as we physically can
Fuck #1 we play it all for fun
the harder it gets
is because the harder it comes
not better than the rest
just put ourselves to the test
putting the suck back into success
the only real way is the highway
I think I can
Its what you make it man
You get out of it what you put in
The poet's voice lingers on
His words hang in the air
The ground you walk upon
Might as well not be there
Might as well not be there
I'll take you through my dreams
Out into the darkest morning
Past the blood filled streams
Into the garden of Jane Delawney
Into the garden now
Though the rose is fair
Don't pluck it as you pass
For a fire will consume your hair
And your eyes will turn to glass
Your eyes will turn to glass
In the willow's shade
Don't lie to hear it weep
For its tears of gold and jade
Will drown you as you sleep
Will drown you now
Jane Delawney had her dreams
That she never did discover
For the flow that feeds the stream
Is the life blood of her lover
Is the life blood of her lover
And the purifying beam
Of the sun will shine here never
While the spirit of her dream
In the garden lives forever
I will not give up
I will not give in
You can take it all
away from me
I will start again
I will not give up
I will not give in
You can take everything I got but not what I believe in
You can break my back
But I will bear it
You can break my heart
But not my spirit
Make a break from the everyday
Make a break from the everyday
Break free from your daily routine
Break free
Break free
Don't call me poor
Don't call me useless
You don't know what my dreams are
You don't know
I got good at fucking up because I practice all the time
I got stupid and I got stuck I got left without a dime
I left early and I showed up late
Everybody's upset because I made them all wait
I never paid it too much mind
Until I turned around and noticed it was all the time
NO MATTER HOW SEVERE I'M GONNA PERSEVERE
I got chased by the cops I got caught and I got beat up
I caught a flashlight across my skull
I was handcuffed to the wall
I got busted I got beat but from my beliefs
I would not retreat
Thrown in the holding cell
Well they want me to rat
They can rot in hell
NO MATTER HOW SEVERE, I'M GONNA PERSEVERE
Stuck on stupid
Tired of feeling always down it's time I turned my life around
Turned my life around no matter how severe
I got good at getting back I'm not afraid to speak my mind
I got good at keeping my cool because I know how to let things slide
I got good at making mistakes
I've lucked out and I've had my bad breaks
They got me backed up against the wall
The harder they come yes the harder they fall
The struggle goes on the struggle is long
But it's always darkest before the dawn
Good things come to those who wait
The Statue of Liberty used to stand forsomething
but now She stands alone
She once welcomed the tired and hungry
She welcomed millions to the USA
but today, She has to turn the massesaway
If She could speak,
what would She say?
LIBERTY STANDS ALONE!
The Statue of Liberty used to
stand for something
(It's just a joke!) Spermicide's homicide the homicide of love spermicide, infanticide crucified for love faceless fetus got shapeless fate conceived in love but born to hate really like her and I hope she isn't late cause she's my favorite little zygote date all my little spermys all my little tad poles every little spermy must have a little soul I like to fuck her and play rock n' roll She likes to kill them when they swim inside her hole spermicide is homicide I can't understand this evil twist of fate when I hate the ones I love and I love the ones I hate I can't understand no I can't understand love, love, love..... what the fuck is love.......mommy daddy don't kill me.....DEAD
As I look out over this beautiful land
I follow my eyes up to the bright blue sky
I think to myself when all this goes
that'll be the day that I want to die
From where I stand I see a devastated land
devastation of an entire Nation
The line is drawn and its all clear cut
the damage is done with one last chop
The engines roar as the cars roll by
and I just want to die
I'm just singing the same old song
its going, its going, its Gone
I'm just SICK of the Same Old Song
As I look out over this beautiful land
I throw my arms up at the bright blue sky
I know in my heart when all this goes
that'll be the day that I want to die
but until the day I lay my body to rest
I'll put my life and death to the test
and fight for this Land for which I stand
Times in my life I felt I was dying
Trials in my life I am still surviving
Like a phoenix rising up from its
own flames
I've been resurrected rise in my own name
I must face the facts,
acknowledge all I've known
across the tracks and back
finally I have grown
I must face the truth,
acknowledge all I've seen
with every fiber of my heart and soul and being
Content of Character
constant test of will
Pass or fail this test
I will sacrifice
Help me celebrate
this precious life
as the battle rages
I will carry on
True to my convictions
I shall overcome
Content of Character
Poverty stricken but I'm not quitting
People call me a rock star
People call me a rock star but they don't know me I don't know who they are
I'm just a blue collar rock n' roller
I dress like a thief I feel like a soldier
I'm on the ladder getting madder and madder
'cause rung after rung my song goes unsung
I sweat and toil over a bucket of oil
I see my chances dim and my blood begins to boil
I'm on the jobsite from morning to night and it feels like I'm wasting my life
That's how I feel every single day
Wasting my life as the radio plays
I'm just a blue collar rock n roller
STARS BELONG IN THE SKY CELEBRITY WORSHIP MUST DIE
Too many in this country worship the celebrity
Living out the lies before their own lives
If everyone was treated like a member of their favorite band it would be a happier land
Why worship the celebrity when they're no better than you or me
Celebrity worship must die
Falling across forgotten landscapes
Transcending all time and space
Well I've read from this book before but through different lips
Turned by different fingertips
I never learn the lesson until I learn the lesson too late I fold and I start again
Rise up and over and collapsing in
MY SOUL IS RECYCLABLE
Dying and rotting away
To wake up and start a brand new day
Like a bottle brought back then thrown away
My soul's in the process in the cycle of change
MY SOUL IS RECYCLABLE
I've learned these lessons before but I'll be damned
I have forgotten them
I walk alone through the valley of death yet
Never for a moment do I second guess
I can't afford to live in doubt
Faith in myself if nothing else
Some things I'll never forget
I refuse to lose my life to regret
I've paid for the mistakes I've made
I've lived to pay my debts
To live and learn my life returned
I don't really care about the bridges burned
walked those burning embers
That's something I'll always remember
I was beginning to fear
Fear I fear happiness
I was beginning to fear
Fear I fear Happiness
I've grown so comfortable with all my anger and my madness
But it keeps me running on in fear of finding my own gladness
Up and down and round and round
I fall back into emptiness
You make me feel so damn real
You make me feel what's really real
Deep within my beating heart
I was given a brand new start, Yeah!
I was beginning to fear Fear I fear happiness
I've grown so comfortable with all my anger and my madness
But it keeps me running on in fear of finding my own gladness
Up and down and round and round I fall back into emptiness
Can you help me find my way or am I doomed to this eternal madness
A voice of reason in all this insanity
So the lock him yeah they lock him up
In maximum security
They lock him up to shut him up
Found guilty in Philly for shooting a cop
Evidence of innocence but charges don't drop
No matter what's right or wrong
They've been after him for too damn wrong
YOU GET IN THE WAY YOU GET WASTED
IF YOU GET IN THE WAY
A Black Panther at the age of fifteen
Born to rage against the racist machine
Laying down the facts what it's like to be black
Not treated like a human being
A love for life is something that he proved
Wrote about John Africa
He wrote about Move
Wrote about the Philly cops
And the bomb they dropped
Burned down a city block
YOU GET IN THE WAY YOU GET WASTED
IF YOU GET IN THE WAY
You can cage my body but my spirit flies free
Your bars made of steel can not hold what feel
Living in this country well I've got pray
Because they crucify a Christ every single day
Sabo let the heads roll
Death row what a brother know
So quick to execute before they give a new trial
That's capitol punishment American style
They've done it once they'll do it again
Love it or leave it that's what they say love it or leave it the American way I love this country I love this land but tolerance for liars I won't stand Not a ring of truth in the political lies The rich get richer While the innocent die Love it or leave it that's what they say change it ,believe it it could happen today If our founding fathers were alive today They'd all be rounded up and be locked away Stripped of all the rights that they created and everything they own would be confiscated Love it or leave it that's what they say Change it believe it it could happen today FOR THE PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE ALL OF US CREATED EQUAL RISE!!

Largest land mammal
on the face of the plant
faces extinction
this very minute
Taken from the Land
by the Hand of Man
largest land mammal
faces extinction
in our lifetime
What are we gonna do about it?
Absolutely-- Nothing
Absolute--Extinction
Taken from the Land
by the Hands of Man
cutting a hole
through the heart of the jungle
shrewn with body parts
Look Ma, top of the food chain
whose the king of the road
Has my kind gone so blind
or are we just Insane
look Ma, top of the food chain
Whose the king of the jungle NOW?
Largest land mammal
murdered for jewelry
stolen for ivory
I curse your trophies
Largest land mammal
Taken from the Land
I'll stop singing, when I'm swinging
From a Tree with a noose around my neck
When they cut me down, and put me in the ground
Will you come and pay me your last respects
But until then put me on your play list
'cause I'm living with a death wish
In it for a lifetime, not for the dollar sign
You know it means so much to me
Part of a bigger whole, that you can't control
Feel us growing, beneath your feet
But until then, put me on your play list
'cause I'm living with a death wish
I'm living with a Death Wish
I'm a Death Wish man
I've got to get things done
before my permanent vacation
I'm always running
running out of time
Is it true that haste makes waste
I can't afford to hesitate
I've got a Deadline on my Lifetime
Tick tock goes the clock
and its never ever gonna stop
Until it falls off the wall
and we all fall to a crawl
Is it true that haste makes waste
I can't afford to hesitate
I've got a Deadline on my Lifetime
A body in motion stays in motion
a body at rest will stay at rest
No matter how severe
I'm gonna persevere
I'm always running in a circle, within myself
If its true that haste makes waste
I can't afford to hesitate
Deadline
A body in motion stays in motion
a body at rest will stay at rest
When I drink I think of her, she's so far away but gets closer
A hopeless dream, yeah I know but she had to let me go
When I'm asleep she comes to me, dancing her way through waves of guillotines
A hopeless dream, yeah I know but she had to let me go
COLD AND ALONE COLD AND ALONE COLD AND ALONE AGAIN
In memories she kisses me so tenderly I gotta save myself and set my soul free
COLD AND ALONE AGAIN
So I lie to myself say I'll find somebody else
Well so long's been the day since I braced a tree
Since I, tried to conquer something bigger than me
For I thought
That I could never go back
Yet here I stand in the midst of them
Learning what it means to be a child again
And I know
It's not too late to go back
And won't that be the day?
When we molecularly meltdown the walls we once held raised
And suddenly, suddenly we're climbing trees
Limber are our members like the children that we use to be
When you say play
When you say play
Well my joints don't hurt when they normally would
And my knees are doing things that I never thought that they could
They're going back in time
Empowered by the memories, of me as a youngin running through the trees
And i know, it's not too late to go back
Cause I'm back now
And wont that be the day?
When we atomically breakdown the walls we once held raised
And suddenly, suddenly we're climbing trees
Limber are our members like the children that we use to be
When you say play
When you say play
It's time for us to play, oh
It's time for us to play
Well times are dire and I think it's time we found a way
To bring our inner children back from where they've gone astray
For life is short and sure to expire
It's time we spread love instead of spreading the fire
Yea times are dire, I'll say it again
To truly change the world, we need to change the way we're living
For life is short and I think it's time we found a way
To kick our shoes off and play
And wont that be the day?
When we molecularly meltdown the walls we once held raised
(Walls we once held raised)
And suddenly, suddenly we're climbing trees
Limber are our members like the children that we use to be
When you say play
When you say play
Well I'll be everything that you want me to be
(Well I'm a child in your eyes)
And I'll give my life to humanity
(I am always in your eyes)
I'll make my way to the top of the tallest of trees
Spreadin seeds, spreadin seeds, spreadin seeds, spreadin seeds
So make me only in to what you want me to be
And I will spread the truth from the top of the tallest tree
When you say play
When you say play
When you say play
They're cutting down all the trees
Can someone stop them please
Thank God for people in this world
Who dedicate their lives to these
Thank God for people in this world
Who dedicate their lives to trees
Because...
Don't they know if they chop them down
There won't be anything to see
Don't they know if they chop them down
There won't be anything to breathe
Don't they know if they chop them down
It's only desert that they leave
Don't they know anything? NO
And it's all for the money
That love for money
Yes it's sweeter than honey
That love for money..and
Don't care about the future
Don't care about the past
You just chop those trees down
While the money it still lasts..
There's a war going on yeah
And it ain't in the middle east
It's happening in our own damn country
They're chopping down all the trees
Don't they know if they chop them down
There won't be anything to see
Don't they know if they chop them down
There won't be anything to breathe
Don't they know if they chop them down
It's only desert that they leave
Don't they know anything? NO
Hippie, ferel, protestors
Call them what you may
But if they weren't here right now
There wouldn't be a tree standing today
Hippie, ferel, protestors
Call them what you may
But if they weren't here right now
There wouldn't be a tree standing today
They're cutting down all the
They're cutting down
They're cutting down all the
They're cutting down
Don't they know if they chop them down
There won't be anything to see
Don't they know if they chop them down
There won't be anything to breathe
Don't they know if they chop them down
It's only desert that they leave
Don't they know anything? NO
Richard Court do you know anything?
Liberal Party do you know anything?
John Howard do you know anything?
Bunnings do you know anything?
Simcore do you know anything?
We all know she's not alone
That doesn't mean she's not lonely
We said goodbye I felt sick inside
Leaning on a rail I watched her as she shied away
To our passion her defences held no ground
But by the light of morning kisses
I could see her face turn down
Love ain't what you're used to when you're used to being alone
The curtain is parted
You see that your emotions have grown away
Turn it around what could it be?
She lifts her eyes and smiles at me
Tasting the moment I say, could we just
Take a walk
Out through the yard
And wander through the trees
Sometime
Just you and me
Sometime
Wander through the trees
Sometime
Just you and me
Sometime soon
Billy works on Wall Street
In an office on the 22nd floor
He never sees how Jenny's eyes light up each day
When he walks through that door
While she's wishin' she could be the one
To fill his every need
He's looking back at love he lost
Somewhere in Tennessee
CHORUS:
Trees, can blind us to the forrest
'Til we never even notice
All the love that's right before us
We can't see the flowers that are bloomin'
Sometimes the truth gets hidden by the leaves
Of trees
Becky slams the bedroom door
Her mama says tonight she's stayin' in
What gives her the right to make up
All the rules and try to pick her friends
Becky doesn't understand a single mother's job is tough
And all her rules are just reflections of a mama's love
CHORUS:
Trees, can blind us to the forrest
'Til we never even notice
All the love that's right before us
We can't see the flowers that are bloomin'
Sometimes the truth gets hidden by the leaves
Of trees
There's beauty all around us
If we read between the lines
There's so much waitin' for us
If we only look behind
CHORUS:
Those trees, that blind us to the forrest
'Til we never even notice
All the love that's right before us
We can't see the flowers that are bloomin'
Sometimes the truth gets hidden by the leaves
Of trees
(Steven Drake)
We all know she's not alone
That doesn't mean she's not lonely
We said goodbye I felt sick inside
Leaning on a rail I watched her as she shied away
To our passion her defences held no ground
But by te light of morning kisses
I could see her face turn down
Love ain't what you're used to when you're used to being alone
The curtain is parted
You see that your emotions have grown away
Turn it around what could it be?
She lifts her eyes and smiles at me
Tasting the moment I say, could we just
Take a walk
Out through the yard
And wander through the trees
Sometime
Just you and me
Sometime
Wander through the trees
Sometime
Just you and me
Sometime soon
It's time to brood
Put up the walls of sound
And practice all the finer points
Of falling down
I'll put aside
The calculated eyes
The even tempered smile
Diffuse again
Given time to discuss these points with
Outside help I could still these friends in my
Heading out to the trees I see myself
I hide in green
Recall the faded dreams
Collide my scope divides
And leaves the team
Beyond the veil
I watch the line extend
A helping hand withdraws
The line again
Given time to discuss these points with
Outside help I could still these friends in my
Heading out to the trees I see myself
Is that an angel on it's side
Next to the postman drifting by
I once had a dream that I could fly
Into the trees
It's time to brood
Put up the walls of sound
And practice all the finer points
Of falling down
I'll put aside
The calculated eyes
The even tempered smile
I don't wanna go through this life
Without you by my side
And I have got it all worked out
In my head
Here's how it's got to be
It will be you and me up in the trees
And the forest will give us the answers
It'll be you and I up in the sky
Its a combination for disaster
We, we make believe
In a world we rule together
We, can build our dreams
With a knot tied tight to last forever
It will be you and me up in the trees
And the forest will give us the answers
It will be you and I up in the sky
It's a combination for disaster
Yeaa-yeaaa-yeaaa-yea-yea-yea
We got one shot
So let's use our imagination
Yeaa-yeaaa-yeaaa-yea-yea-yea
You're all that I've got
So where do we go from here?
It will be you and me up in the trees
And the forest will give us the answer
It will be you and I up in the sky
It's a combination for disaster
And I know there's more for us in this life
If we hold on
If we hold strong
I know there's more for us in this life

Silent in the trees.

Silent in the trees
Standing cowardly.
I can feel your breath.
I can feel my death.
I want to know you.
