2005- Written after  Hurrican  Katrina hit

Food in my stomach, roof over my head when I get sleepy I go to my bed whoa whoa, yeah yeah
Wake up in the morning get in my car put the heater on eat my breakfast bar I got everything, change my cell phone ring
Move lanes when I please give valet my keys pour a coffee drink get paid just to think, what more could I want, should I give or flaunt
Lunch time what to eat hot steak or sushi I can eat either on doesn't matter to me, wow I have it good, if I should I would,
After work what to do watch my plasma TV take a dip in my pool or just be lazy, this is the life, no fuss no strife, whoooauu whaoo
what about the man on the street he had to food to eat no shoes on his feet, look like he was beat nothing on him was neat a person he’d like to meet,,, do I really need all that I have.
Well if I don’t need all that I have what should I do, won't you give me a clue, won't you give me a clue, won't you turn on your big TV, then you will see, there are some out there with no food to eat no shoes on their feet or no place to sleep you see disaster hit, nature threw a fit,
in His eyes we are one no one better than the other if you think otherwise go and cry to your mother it’s time to dooos, chase away the blues
One step a time no need for hurry, take a step back amongst this scurry, thank you for this day, ohh come what may...
Now the man who was on the street he’s got food to eat shoes on his feet he’s dressed nice and neat got a place to sleep
And he’s holding his head up high... you see you really never needed all that you had

StreetTalk

when you stay walking down the street do you recognize the people that you meet do you say hello and wave goodbye.
the postman’s making her run, the barber shops chopping away, the candy store and the fruit stands are a busy busy.
there goes little john a little wizy dizzy, his friends bet him to spin around a fifty sixty times, and now he can’t walk.
on your way home you see anti lu and anti zu, talking story at the ninth street park, politics, gossip and the sales at the local market...
a dog jumps out bark bark there he goes lily let him out and no one knows what he’s up to who he'll chase , or when he'll return
the ice cream mans tune starts to appear while the grown men hang talking over a beer all you hear all the children’s yells and their cheers..

when the news hit town about good old Billy everyone was down everyone was around, to hear the story of what he was doing, overseas.
his wife his daughter knelt down to pray and to the good good lord they wish he saved just for one more chance to see their Billy again...
the flags were flown halfway up the pole visitors could see that they lost a soul; people talked of Billy and his great past,
this father friend son and husband was loved so much by his friends and kin then one day, come what may the angels took him away...
do you know, do you know what you doing, do you know, do you know, what you’re doing; we don’t know what were...

the powers are thinking to start sending more, they keep on adding time to this war, don’t they know to put a fire out, you don’t add more.
many families like Billys, are going through troubles and miseries, just imagine if you were the one, to lose yours,
let’s just hope that the time is near, where we will all stop living in fear, can’t you see, let them be, let them free..

KnockKnock

knock knock who’s at the door I’ll tell you once won’t tell you again, sit down won't you and let her fly away, knock knock who’s at the door tell you once won’t tell you again, don’t do nothing, and watch it flee your way..
We all went through it, we all went through it, papa tells you this, papa tells you that run into the room and shut the door thinkin let me be and let me free whooaoaoaoao...
While younger we were as soldiers taking command, then later we started to turn our cheek...
knock knock who’s at the door I’ll tell you once won’t tell you again, sit down won't you and let her fly fly away, knock knock, who is it, tell you once tell you again, don’t do nothing and watch it flee your way..
Many a time when he sat me down he told me this, what you have in your hands, don’t you don’t you waste it away,,,
Knock knock who’s at the door,, sit down won't you just let fly away, knock knock, who is it,
Get up and do something, knock knock, whooao, yeahhheeahh, knock knock, who’s at the door,
Sit down won't you and let her fly away, knock knock who’s at the door, knock knock, oh whoao...

Do  U See

As I sit here thinking theirs something I don’t understand.
Why is man always judging his fellow man
Always looking at what the other persons got
And with what we have we are thankful not

See that man that you always see
There are many things you have that he don’t have
Why not share and give freely
Do the act and don’t look back

Leeky Faucet

Drip Drop went the faucet it started one day, two people had meet it was a blessed day.
The dripping and the dropping didn’t bother no one so the two of them continued their fun.
They didn’t wanna waste any water you see, so they gathered it up and watered the tree.
So they left the leeky facucet water dripped freely, and day by day up grew this tree…..
Months went by drip drop still it went between the boy and the girl it was love they meant.
But little by little the boy chopped away at the tree that they had planted back that day
The tree was also getting heavy for the girl you see, so she chopped right back and went down the tree.
In each other’s arms they both cried that day they couldn’t understand why it had to be that way…
The two have chosen to go their ways, for both we pray they’ll be better days. Plumbers from everywhere came by, one by one they gave it a try, together, the boy and girl try to fix but no can,
Little do they know theirs only one repair man… Will this leeky faucet ever go away
