Lethal Letters

(MPD, NRA, GOP, LAPD)
Run from A to Z, what will you find?
Bodies written in between each and every line.
Shamelessly in every place we see,
every death spelled out in Lethal Letters.
Free me.
Just let me roll where I am trying to go.
Live your life, don't take mine
behind those Lethal Letters.
Free me.
Just let me roll where I am trying to go.

Nonviolence
04:00

Eye for an eye
Chain reaction
That old cliché
Won't save the day
Or save a fraction
Of what we'll have to pay.
For generations
Crushing lives
with no return
the homes will crumble
families will burn
Eternal violence
What have we earned?
Tooth for a tooth
Just extraction
Won't stop decay
Blood at the root
in a transaction
that we will pay in youth.
Organization, imagination
and we can grow
though we will stumble
learn as we go
We need Nonviolence
and we should know that
Peace won't shine
in the shadow of a bomb
we won't ease our fears
living in the grip of a gun.

Your Design

I'm in love with Your Design
It's such a precious peace of mind
When there's no time to seek and find
And it's divine.
All my faith in your design
I'm seeking yet I cannot find
with Your Design
I save no time
The loss is mine.
Can't sleep at night
Your light
Is telling me
That night is day
My memory
Something you give to me
Please don't ever hide
I am designed by Your Design.

West of West

Now time has come
They proclaim that we are free
We're free to the wind and the rain
To be put back in chains if we remain.
They call it emancipation
Slavery by a different name
After and before, so much the same.
Go west, maybe start fresh
We can have a chance
That's what they say.
Ride the rails of the Sunset Line
Never look behind, see what we find.
Now we are here
True and false
That much is clear.
Found work, maybe got a degree
But it's easy to see
that we're not free
They don't call it segregation
Jim Crow by a different name
After and before, so much the same.
Red lines and palm trees
in the hottest sun they tell us to freeze.
Stand their ground but can't keep us down
Going West of West
We'll come back around.
We'll keep on striving
till the sparks turn to flames
Beyond the setting sun
We will keep on moving
and things will never be the same.
