A realization has occurred...

[Hell_bound]

In life there are constant forces that push and pull an individual. At times this push and pull can create tremendous stress on individuals, and in these times one will have to muster all their strength and struggle to face these times without a sense of disrepair.

Yet, if looked at from a different perspective, these forces have a powerful ability to shape and strengthen an individual. For if faced these forces can give a deep insight into the personality, motivations and the beliefs that one holds. For these forces will project and demand that you look at your own image, actions and statements.

But woe onto you who choose not to look into the image of the self and recognize not the folly of ones one actions and but also one's thinking.

For when you do this you harden your heart against the very process that allows humanity to evolve.

The sound of metal i want to be you
i should learn to be a man
like you

Plug me in and turn me on
oh everything is moving

I need my treatment it's tomorrow they send me
singing "i am an american"
do you?

Picture this if i should make the change
I'd like to pull the wires from the wall
did you?

And who are you and how can i try
here inside i like the metal
don't you?

Evolution is a process whereby humanity can free itself from the oppressive laws of nature and define their own destiny. But without first learning about the limitations of the self, one can have no hope to understand this process much less the self.

If the air is a little thick in this room tonight
I reckon it's the result of an onslaught of separatist rookies
Overcome by this colorful sight

Talking so fast that even they
Talking so fast that even they
Don't know what they mean

Of all the things that base a rhyme
How is it that you every time
Regurgitate the racist lines that keep us apart?

Thank God this ain't Monopoly
You'd make us all go back to start

Race
In the space I mark human (Face the music)
Race
Face the music
We all bones when we dead

Race
In the space I mark human (Face the music)
Cut me, cut you
Both the blood is red

I gotcha

Check it

Three seats over there's a lady black
Entrusted to her care is a little white girl
And the fact of the matter is

Before her momma or another kid at school
Tells her about the fallacy that one race rules over the other
She'd be a much-better-off-left to be a fool (Face the music)

If we never heard about the evils that those before us committed
Then how my dear, tell me now how my dear, tell me now how now would we know

And then the band say

Race
In the space I mark human (Face the music)
Race
Face the music
We all bones when we dead

Race
In the space I mark human (Face the music)
Cut me, cut you
Both the blood is red

I gotcha

Race
Race
(Face the music)

Down with history and Bullshit propaganda
Keeping you from me and me from you as we grow
I don't wanna know (I don't wanna know)
Why those before us hated each other

I'd rather believe they never did
I'd rather believe (I'd rather, I'd rather believe)
That there's hope for a kid

And if he imitates the best
I guess that's what I'll try to be
And I will let the rest dissolve with my guitar underneath the sea

Race
(Face Face Face Face Face)
Face the music (Face the music)
Face the music

Race
In the space I mark human (Face the music)
Race
Face the music
We all bones when we dead

Race
In the space I mark human (Face the music)
Cut me, cut you
Both the blood is red

Do you understand now the task that if before you, my children? Be more then what you are. Be more then what you perceive. Be more then your limits make you.

Lean all that you can and stop not on this road to this task, for if you do you will shall wither and recede. And you will lose this gift, that I give to you.

Now it looks like this

And you can swallow
Or you can spit
You can throw it up
Or choke on it
And you can dream
So dream out loud
You know that your time is coming 'round
So don't let the bastards grind you down

No, nothing makes sense
Nothing seems to fit
I know you'd hit out
If you only knew who to hit
And I'd join the movement
If there was one I could believe in
Yeah I'd break bread and wine
If there was a church I could receive in
'Cause I need it now

To take the cup
To fill it up
To drink it slow
I can't let you go

I must be an acrobat
To talk like this
And act like that
And you can dream
So dream out loud
And don't let the bastards grind you down

Oh, it hurts baby
What are we going to do? Now it's all been said
No new ideas in the house and every book has been read

And I must be an acrobat
To talk like this
And act like that
And you can dream
So dream out loud
And you can find
Your own way out
And you can build
And I can will
And you can call
I can't wait until
You can stash
And you can seize
But in dreams being responsibilities
And I can love
And I can love
And I know that the tide is turning 'round
So don't let the bastards grind you down

Now that I have given you this, you are free to do as you please. However, now that you know this message you shall also be judged by it. For it's the measure of how one separates the wheat from the sheaf.

Blessed are those that can see. Blessed are those that can hear. And above all, blessed are those that know the truth of this message.

I listened to them all, and lets see i agree with everything you say(strangely), our lives are shaped by many things that we do. When we make our choices whether wrong or right we must ponder about why we took that certain path, if we dont then we will never learn about ourselves, what makes us tick, why we love, why we hate, why we are happy, why we are sad, if we are spiritual....to not question yourself means you will never move forward in life, just stay stagnant. Self discovery is the key, to know one's self..is the best discovery of all....confront your fears and inbrace your dreams..what have you got to lose.

As fast as thou shalt wane, so fast thou grow'st
In one of thine, from that which thou departest;
And that fresh blood which youngly thou be-
stow'st
Thou mayst call thine when thou from youth
convertest.
Herein lives wisdom, beauty and increase;
Without this, folly, age and cold decay:
If all were minded so, the times should cease
And threescore year would make the world away.
Let those whom Nature hath not made for store,
Harsh, featureless and rude, barrenly perish:
Look, whom she best endow'd she gave the more;
Which bounteous gift thou shouldst in bounty
cherish:
She carv'd thee for her seal, and meant thereby
Thou shouldst print more, nor let that copy
die.

All may say

Drink from the reasons that hold you alive
'Til we're safe from the wounds of desire and pain
You must rise from the mounds of desire and change

Too late to discover peace of mind
Too late to recover me

All you see and all you breathe and all you cease to be
Taken down your only son and what he means to me
Your dream will be
To dream with me

Will you wait? Yes I will, I will wait for you
To cleanse your life takes more than time
Take what you want
Take all of it

Too late to discover peace of mind (have no peace of mind)
To late to recover

hey can I paste in half of a Bible and then some Koran and stuff?

A story, a life - words combined that tell of the truth of humanity from a time long ago..

Then the whole assembly rose and led him off to Pilate. And they began to accuse him, saying, "We have found this man subverting our nation. He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar and claims to be Christ, a king."

So Pilate asked Jesus, "Are you the king of the Jews?"
"Yes, it is as you say," Jesus replied.

Then Pilate announced to the chief priests and the crowd, "I find no basis for a charge against this man."

But they insisted, "He stirs up the people all over Judea by his teaching. He started in Galilee and has come all the way here."

On hearing this, Pilate asked if the man was a Galilean. When he learned that Jesus was under Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem at that time.

When Herod saw Jesus, he was greatly pleased, because for a long time he had been wanting to see him. From what he had heard about him, he hoped to see him perform some miracle. He plied him with many questions, but Jesus gave him no answer. The chief priests and the teachers of the law were standing there, vehemently accusing him. Then Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked him. Dressing him in an elegant robe, they sent him back to Pilate. That day Herod and Pilate became friends—before this they had been enemies.

Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers and the people, and said to them, "You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined him in your presence and have found no basis for your charges against him. Neither has Herod, for he sent him back to us; as you can see, he has done nothing to deserve death. Therefore, I will punish him and then release him."

With one voice they cried out, "Away with this man! Release Barabbas to us!" (Barabbas had been thrown into prison for an insurrection in the city, and for murder.)

Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate appealed to them again. But they kept shouting, "Crucify him! Crucify him!"

For the third time he spoke to them: "Why? What crime has this man committed? I have found in him no grounds for the death penalty. Therefore I will have him punished and then release him."

But with loud shouts they insistently demanded that he be crucified, and their shouts prevailed. So Pilate decided to grant their demand. He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, the one they asked for, and surrendered Jesus to their will.

As they led Jesus away, they seized Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus. A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed for him. Jesus turned and said to them, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep for yourselves and for your children. For the time will come when you will say, 'Blessed are the barren women, the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!' Then" 'they will say to the mountains, "Fall on us!"and to the hills, "Cover us!" 'For if men do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?"

Two other men, both criminals, were also led out with him to be executed. When they came to the place called the Skull, there they crucified him, along with the criminals—one on his right, the other on his left. Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."
