                                                            Condemnation 

In the urban jungle we are... Everywhere you look you see a car....
All this steel and glass used to be grass... The light poles replace the trees...
In there natural state I wish they could be....
We think that we have come so far but where did we really go?
Most of the farmers are gone so how will we get along?
People just go to the store not thinking they will ever be poor....
What happens across this world when the streets outnumber the tweets?
We should be happy to live here...
The day will come and there will be no meat and nothing else to eat...
Our four fathers would be so ashamed at what happen to the dream...
We lost it somewhere in between the coolest new thing and chasing all our dreams....
We have to take care of this place just as the great men had planned...
Let's not wait until it is too late or fear will replace those dreams that we had...
And everyone will be very sad...

                                               Prisoner In My Own Mind

At the edge of night... Not long til the morning...
Seems like forever with all this terror...
Things inside my mind put me way behind...
I wish I could step out of my dreams and leave them behind...
But there inlies the problem..
Can't just take out my brain and erase all the scares and pain..
They took a life time to create and now I am afraid it is to late...
Sleep is but a distance memory to me...
I want to live again and feel young and spry....
There is no denying there is a lot of love in me...
I want it to show and let those people know...
I am who I used to be even if they can not see...
My words do not convey what they mean to me but they will again one day....
