Yes again more lyrics from the Flobots. I encourage their messege more and more every damn day.

Fight WIth Tools
echo echo one-nine
hear the call through fault lines
smoke signals old rhymes
shorted lights in store signs
spelled in a broken code
find that it is time to
breath build bend and refine you
we sky tenants
give it all but wont give up
radio soul antennas
radio to lift spirits
call sign commando
m.o. is independence
scream till the walls fall,
dissolve all the limits

occupied minds
unemployed skills
desolation
worn out
torn down
just for now thrill seekers
slanging
test tube babies in beakers
where gun blasts pump straight from the speakers
the system where the
poor get poorly paid
to hold the ladder
where the rich get ricocheted
into the stratosphere
and in between people are rushin' like vladimir
with metals to make their status clear
get us out of here

we need heroes
build them
don't put your fist up
fill them
with our hopes and our hearts and our hands
we're the architects of our last stand

there's a war going on for your mind
those who seek to occupy it will stop at nothing
the battlefield is everywhere
there is no sanctuary
there are no civilians
you have two choices
surrender or enlist

what kind of person are you
always the first to argue
or never down to stick your neck out
cause it hurts you far too much
to see your rep suffer
set you up a buffer
well neither is enough for us cut from a tougher brand of duct tape
the propaganda's stuck on us like sock pajamas
spread like a virus
through accepted thoughts and proper manners
but off the cameras
something's simmering across the land
about to bubble up
and knock the lids off of the pots and pans

we are non stop juggernauts
stomp ziggurats
spit manifestos
by terabytes and gigawatts
shock paradigms
give sense to a score
throw thoughts through the sky
activate twenty more
in these high and dry times
expectorate on dogma
pragmatic sycophants
divide and conquer
we build bridges offer
hard work and prosper
as hand made heroes brought to you by no sponsors

all free minds to the front
all free minds to the front
we call upon women
we call upon children
we call upon the handicapped
the infirmed
the week of heart
we need your courage
your dedication
your passion
your commitment
gather up your platinum
melt it down
gather up your gold
melt it down
gather up your bronze
your silver
your aluminum
melt it down
melt it down
melt it down

This song represents one of my core and most powrfull beliefs. This brings me out of every rut. It is written by the Flobots. Its about how ALL human beings, me, you, EVERYONE has INFINATE POTENTAL! I will be posting more of their lyrics soon. I will even probably join their orginization, Street Team.

Handlebars
I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
No handlebars
I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
No handlebars

Look at me, look at me
Hands in the air like it's good to be
Alive, and I'm a famous rapper
Even when the paths're all crookedy
I can show you how to do-si-do
I can show you how to scratch a record
I can take apart the remote control
And I can almost put it back together
I can tie a knot in a cherry stem
I can tell you about Leif Ericson
I know all the words to "De Colores"
And "I'm proud to be an American"

Me and my friend saw a platypus
Me and my friend made a comic book
And guess how long it took
I can do anything that I want cuz, look--

I can keep rhythm with no metronome
No metronome
No metronome
And I can see your face on the telephone
On the telephone
On the telephone

Look at me, look at me
Just called to say that it's good to be
Alive
In such a small world
I'm all curled up with a book to read
I can make money open up a thrift store
I can make a livin off a magazine
I can design an engine sixty four miles to the gallon of gasoline

I can make new antibiotics
I can make computers survive aquatic conditions
I know how to run the business
And I can make you wanna buy a product
Movers, shakers and producers
Me and my friends understand the future
I see the strings that control the system
I can do anything with no assistance

...'Cuz I can lead a nation with a microphone
With a microphone
With a microphone
And I can split the atom of a molecule
Of a molecule
Of a molecule

Look at me, look at me
Drivin' and I won't stop
And it feels so good to be alive and on top
My reach, is global
My tower, secure
My cause, is noble
My power, is pure

I can hand out a million vaccinations
Or let them all die in exasperation
Have'em all healed from the lacerations
Have'em all killed by assassination
I can make anybody go to prison
Just because I don't like'em
And I can do anything with no permission
I have it all under my command because

I can guide a missile by satellite
By satellite
By satellite
And I can hit a target through a telescope
Through a telescope
Through a telescope

And I can end the planet in a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust
In a holocaust

I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
No handlebars
I can ride my bike with no handlebars
No handlebars
No handlebars

Here is the begining to our apartments Constitution....we obviously need help..........

Constitution of THE APARTMENT

1. "Residents" have the power to make all final desicions in THE APARTMENT; as well as veto any "Crew Members" choices.

2. All decisions must be agreed upon by ALL "Residents" as well as be written down by the Sribe, if need be, before they come into effect.

3. "Residents" must convine to create/edit "Rules" to this document, add/remove "Crew Members" or "Residents",
along with any and all major desicions pertaining to THE APARTMENT or the livelyhood of "Residents" and "Crew Members".

4. Noted "Crew Members" can make temporary desicions that are needed when there are no residents around to make it. The "Crew Member(s)" that make the desicion have full responisbility for the consequences that ensue from their choice(s). These desicions can be vetoed at any time by any "Resident".

5. Under any circumstances, Anthony Loja and Cory harvey (Paying the most rent) have final say in terms of this document and THE APARTMENT in general. Even over other "Residents"

6. This Constitution is a living document and is viable to change at any time, under the watch and power of the "Residents".

7. A list of "Residents" and their duties within and pertaining to THE APARTMENT, along with those of "Crew Members", will be posted on another document. This other document, titled "Roster", is also a living document and can be changed at anytime through the watch and power of the "Residents".

8. Only "Residents" have the power to give someone a title. A "Crew Member" with a title may suggest possible canidate(s) for an open title slot.

9. The only people who may hold a title are "Residents" and "Crew Members". "Fringe Members" are not capable of holding any title besides that of "Initiate"; which still must be given by the "Residents"

10. "Crew Members" and "Residents" must up hold their title and duties. If they disconitue their duties they can be removed from their title and post through the watch and power of the "Residents".

          -Definitions-
1. THE APARTMENT- the place of living where these rules are believed in and are enforced.

2. "Resident"- A person who lives in THE APARTMENT and is somehow putting in effort/monetary value to THE APARTMENT or the livelyhoods of all other "Residents". ie. If your not giving to the rest of us you get nothing from us. YOU GET WHAT YOU GIVE!

3. "Crew Member"- A person who gives time/energy or anything else who doesn't live in THE APARTMENT. A "Crew Member" usually will have duties and other such things.

4. "Fringe Member"- A person who doesn't add to THE APARTMENT in any consitant, or worthwhile, way. If they are givin any Title, unless it is a joke or an "Initiate Title".

5. "Initiate Title"- Someone who wants a try at a title can take it via diplomatic force. Or they can request to become an "Initaite" of the Title and work up the ranks by proving themselves. An "Initiate" has only the power to run basic errands for the "Crew Member" (if one) with the Title. Meanwhile if the Title holder whom the "Initiate" is under is a "Resident" they can do anything that all the "Residents" feel the "Initiate" can do.

5. "rules"- A governing statement that will be enfored by "Residents" and "Crew Members" as well as be respected by visitors to THE APARTMENT. A "Rule" is anything within the Constitution, Roster or anything that the "residents" post somehow. "Rules" must be clear and easily understood.

And finally Our Crew Roster. Which needs to be updated.

-Roster-

Key=
*=This title can be owned by multiple people

NOTE:Any "Resident" can hand off a title temporarily (Agreed upon time by the "Residents") to a, trusted, "Crew Member" whom the "Residents" approve capable. It is then, if something goes wrong, both the "Resident"'s and the trusted "Crew Member"'s responibility. The "Resident" for bad leadership. The "Crew Member" for incompitence. If things go above par both will be praised. The "Resident" for good leadership and management. The "Crew Member" for competence (Possible re-crowning of Title).

I have decided to post my poetry and random thought up in this diary thing. All the diary is is a damn blog anyway.
I may even post my apartments Constitution here. I'm way to into and inspired by that thing.

Lookin' Round (May change title)
As the worlds spin
Twirlin' in their orbits
Wirlin' round their balls of gas
Swirlin' in their elequent dance
Lit only by strobe lights
We go amongst our fights

Blowing each other way
Each and every day
Leaders on giants shoulders
Like crushing flowers
Stealing candy from babies
Just to feed it to Hades

We go amongst our fights
Our day lit with bomb flare
Enough for Ghangis to have a scare
Up and down our planes soar
Much like the price of a whore
Enough to make the brothers cry to the core

Survival is loosing its lights

All of this and I'm still asked of God
Sodom and Gamorah
His cities of sins and ash
Are our cities of grins and cash
'Nough said
