People get ready

 

Be thankful for what you've got

But remember brothers and sisters 


You can still stand tall

Diamond in the back

Talkin bout don't worry

Gimme your love

Nothing to prove

Nobody would believe it anyway

Don't worry, if there's a hell below, we're all gonna go

Kung Fu

Our days of comfort, days of night
Don't put yourself in solitude
Who can I trust with my life
When people tend to be so rude?

My mama borne me in a ghetto
There was no mattress for my head
But no, she couldn't call me Jesus
I wasn't white enough, she said

And then she named me, kung fu
Don't have to explain it, no, kung fu
Don't know how you'll take it, kung fu
I'm just trying to make it, kung fu

I've got some babies and some sisters
My brother worked for Uncle Sam
It's just a shame, ain't it, mister
We being brothers of the damned

But nothing brings about the difference
You are my lover, do believe
Shall we join hands for tomorrow?
Don't giving up, then up your sleeve

Keep your head high, kung fu
I will till I die, yeah, kung fu
Don't be too intense, no, kung fu
Keep your common sense, yeah, kung fu

Don't mistake life for a secret
There is no secret part of you
You bet your life if you think wicked
Someone else is thinking wicked too

Keep your head high, kung fu
I will till I die, yeah, kung fu
Don't be too intense, no, kung fu
Keep your common sense, yeah, kung fu

Our days of comfort, days of night
Don't put yourself in solitude
Who can I trust with my life
When people tend to be so rude?

My mama borne me in a ghetto
There was no mattress for my head
But no, she couldn't name me Jesus
I wasn't white enough, she said

And then she named me, kung fu
Don't have to explain it, no, kung fu 
Don't know how you'll take it, kung fu
I'm just trying to make it, kung fu

Kung, kung fu, kung fu

Keep on keepin' on

In this world there are two groups of people. Us and them.

You can identify group one by certain behavioral traits.

It is comprised of the people who smile brightly as they patiently hold the door for the elderly and infirm even when in a hurry. These people stealthily keep an eye on other people's children while careless parents ignore or are oblivious to potential danger. This group has been known to feign a lack of hunger when the catering seems to have been severely miscalculated or even better they frequently accidentally prepare more food than is needed and wonder if those in need would be so kind as to help them get rid of it. You can define group one through a million different traits that usually involve the well being of others.

Generally group one persists in trying to save a world that we know is ultimately doomed to explode in a magnificent display of the universe's majesty.

Group two is simply defined by their absence from the group one.

Poor man's social engineering

Freddy's dead!

I know a recession is a very painful and difficult thing for many of us.

But if there is an upside to the great recession it is that you no longer see quite as many douche bags tooling around town in overpriced luxury cars that they cannot afford.

That's gotta count for something.

Ladder shaped obstacles

You know, sometimes it seems as if God purposely puts stumbling blocks in your path just to see if your dumb ass has enough sense to climb up on them to overcome your obstacles.

Yesterday, I was faced with a seemingly insurmountable obstacle. Now I could have just punked out and found a corner and started sobbing. Or, on the other hand, I could start searching for a work around.

And I could have given up when the first 3 solutions didn't pan out.

But the fourth solution not only solved my problem but ultimately proved to be a better course of action than my original plan.

So not only did I accomplish my short term goal, but I improved upon my process going forward.

Like I said, sometimes its just a test to see how your dumb ass will react.

We people who are darker than blue Give me your love

This is my country
