Seen and Not Seen

Seen and Not Seen

Aloha,

Band: Talking Heads

Album: Remain in Light

Lyrics: David Byrne

Song: Seen and Not Seen



He would see faces in movies, on T.V., in magazines, and in books....
He thought that some of these faces might be right for him....And
that through the years, by keeping an ideal facial structure fixed in his
mind....Or somewhere in the back of his mind....That he might, by
force of will, cause his face to approach those of his ideal....The
change would be very subtle....It might take ten years or so....
Gradually his face would change it's shape....A more hooked nose...
Wider, thinner lips....Beady eyes....A larger forehead.

He imagined that this was an ability he shared with most other
people....They had also molded their faces according to some
ideal....Maybe they imagined that their new face would better
suit their personality....Or maybe they imagined that their
personality would be forced to change to fit the new appear-
ance....This is why first impressions are often correct...
Although some people might have made mistakes....They may have
arrived at an appearance that bears no relationship to them....
They may have picked an ideal appearance based on some childish
whim, or momentary impulse....Some may have gotten half-way
there, and then changed their minds.

He wonders if he too might have made a similar mistake.






Get High, Listen to this Loud. Trippy stuff for old school

This is more than just a song, this is a politics.
Karl Marx wrote Philosophy of Poverty.

Artist:Immortal technique
Song: Poverty of Philosophy

"Most of my latino and black ppl who are struggling to get food clothes and shelter in the hood are so concerned with that,
that philosophising about freedom and socialist democracies is unfortuantely beyond their racional. They dont realise that America cant exist without separating them from their identity, because if we had some sense of who we really are, there's no way in hell we'd allow this country to push us genocidal consentments on our homelands.
This ignorance exists but it can be destroyed.

Niggas talk about change and working within the system to achieve that, but the problem with always being a conformist is that when you try to change the system from within, it's not you who changes the system, it's the system that will eventually change you, and there's usually nothing wrong with compromising the situation, but compromising yourself and the situation is another story completely, and i've seen this happen long enough in the few years that i've been alive to know that it's a serious problem.

Latino america is a huge colony of countries whose presidents are cowards in the face of economic imperialism.
You see, 3rd world countries are rich places, abundant in resources and many of these countries have the capacity to feed their starving people and the children you always see digging for food in trash on commercials, but (butocracies?), in other words, government run by the rich such as this one and traditionally oppresive european states force the 3rd world to buy overpriced unnecessary goods while exporting huge portions of their natural resources.

Im quite sure that people will look upon my attitude and sentiments and look for hipocrisy and hate in my words but my revolution is born out of love from my peopel, and not hatred for others.

You see most of the latinos are here because of the great inflation that was caused by american companies in Latin America. Aside from that, many are seeking a life away from the public democracies that were funded by the United States.
Places like El Salvador, Guatemala, Peru, Colombia, Nicaragua, Equador, Republica Dominicana, and not just spanish speaking countries either, but Haiti and Jamaica as well. As different as we've been taught to look at each other by colonial society, we're in the same struggle and until we realise that, we will be fighting for scraps from the table of a system that has kept us observing instead of being selfdetermined, and thats why we have no control of when the embargo will stop in Cuba or when the bombs will stop droppin in Viejes.

But you see, here in America the attitude that is fed to us is that outside of America there live lesser ppl, 'fuck them, let them defend for themselves', no, fuck you, they ARE you, no matter how much you wanna dye your hair blonde, put fake eyes in, or follow a (interx?) standard of beauty, or no matter how many diamonds you buy from people that exploit they're own bruttaly to get them, no matter what kinda car you drive or what kind of fancy clothes you put on, you will never be them, they'll always gonna look at you as nothing but a little monkey.
I rather be proud of what i am rather than desperately being something i'm really not, just to fit in, and wether you want to accept it or not, that's what this culture or lack of culture is feeding us.

I want a better life for my family and for my children but it doesn't have to be in the expense of millions of lifes in my homeland.
We are given the idea that if didn't have this people to exploit then America wouldnt be rich enough to let us have this little petty material things in our lives and basic standards of living.
No, thats wrong, it's the business giants and the gov officials who make all the real money, we have whatever they kick down to us.

My enemy is not the average whiteman, it's not the kid down the block or the kids i see on the st, my enemy is the white man i dont see, the ppl in the whitehouse and the corporate monopoly with those fake liberal politicians, those are my enemies, the generals of the armies that are mostly conservative, those are the reall motherfuckers that i need to bring it to. Not the poor broke country ass soul that is too stupid to know shit about the way things are set up. In fact, i have more in common with most working and middle class white people than i do with most rich black and latino people.

As much as racism bleeds America we need to understand that clacism is the real issue. Many of us are in the same boat and its sinking while these 'bourgie' motherfuckers raid on the luxury liner, and as long as we keep fighting over kicking ppl out of the little boat were all in we're gonna miss an oppurtunity to gain a better standard living as a whole.

In other words, i dont wanna escape the plantation, i wanna come back, free all my ppl, hang the mf that kept me there and burn the house to the goddamn ground! I wanna take over the encomenda and give it back to the ppl that work the land.
You cannot change the past but you can make the future and anyone who tells you different is a fucking lethargic devil.

I dont look at the few latinos and black ppl in the public eye as some type of achievement for my people as a whole, most of those successfull individuals are just sellouts and house negros. But, i dont consider a brother as a sellout if they moved out of the ghetto, poverty has nothing to do with our ppl, its not in our culture to be poor, that's only been in the last 500 years of our history, look at the last 2000 years of our existence and what we brought to the world in terms of science, mathematics, agriculture and forms of governement. You know the idea of a confederation of provinces where one federal government controls the states? The europeans who came to this country stole the idea from the (iriquois li?), the idea of a (pitching?) ruler comes from an aztec tradition, that's why Moctezuma was stoned to death by his own ppl because he represented the agenda of white spanyards once he was captured, and not the aztec people who would become mexicans.

So in conclusion, i'm not gonna vote in anybody just because they're black or latino, they have to trully represent the community and represent whats good for all of us proletarians.

Porqe se no te mando para el carago gusano hijo de puta, seramos libres e pronto, viva la revolucion, VIVA LA REVOLUCION!"

Led Zeppelin
In The Light
Physical Graffiti

And if you feel that you can't go on. And your will's sinkin' low
Just believe and you can't go wrong.
In the light you will find the road. You will find the road.

Oh, did you ever believe that I could leave you, standing out in the cold
I know how it feels 'cause I have slipped through to the very depths of my soul.

I just wanna show what I'd give you it is from every bend in the road
Now listen to me Oh, whoa-whoa, as I was and really would be for you, too, honey As you would for me, oh, I would share your load. Let me share your load. Ooh, let me share, share your load.

And if you feel that you can't go on... In the light you will find the road...

Though the winds of change may blow around you, but that will always be so
When love is pain it can devour you, if you are never alone
I would share your load. I would share your load
Baby, let me, oh, let me....

In the light... Everybody needs the light.
In the light, in the light, in the light ~

Pink Floyd
Pigs On The Wing (Pt. 1)
Animals

If you didn't care what happened to me...
And I didn't care for you...

We would zig-zag our way...
through the boredom and pain...

Occasionally glancing up through the rain...
Wondering which of the buggers to blame...

And watching for pigs on the wing.

Give me a word
Give me a sign
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find...

Lay me on the ground
Fly me in the sky
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find...

Oh Heaven let your light shine down

Love is in the water
Love is in the air
Show me where to go
Tell me will love be there...

Teach me how to speak
Teach me how to share
Teach me where to go
Tell me will love be there... will love be there ~

Oh, Heaven let your light shine down

Ozzy Osbourne & the Blizzard of Ozz
You Can't Kill Rock & Roll
Diary of a Madman

How many times can they fill me with lies
And I listen again
Twisting the truth and they're playin' around with my head, O.K.
The things they will do and the things they will say
But they don't really understand
Tears fill my eyes when I hear all the cries for the reason today....

And they don't really know even what they're talkin' about
And I can't image what empty heads can achieve
Leave me alone, don't want your promises no more
'Cos rock & roll is my religion and my law
Won't ever change, may think it's strange
You can't kill rock & roll, it's here to stay...

Lookin' through eyes of time
Mirrors reflecting their stories untrue
Promises, promises telling me all of my glories overdue
How many times have I heard it before and I'll probably hear it again
King of a thousand knights, pawn in a table light
Losing to you...

And they don't really know even what they're talkin' about
And I can't image what empty heads can achieve
Leave me alone, don't want your promises no more
'Cos rock & roll is my religion and my law
Won't ever change, may think it's strange
You can't kill rock & roll, it's here to stay....

Even the rhymes that they
Give me in times of confession ain't true
Outcome is obvious all for them, none for us meaning you too
The things they will do and the things they will say
When they don't really understand
Fear of rejection, I need their protection I'm making a stand...

'Cos they don't really know even what they're talkin' about
And I can't image what empty heads can achieve
Leave me alone, don't want your promises no more
'Cos rock & roll is my religion and my law
Won't ever change, may think it's strange
You can't kill rock & roll, it's here to stay...

Leave me alone, don't want your promises no more
'Cos rock & roll is my religion and my law
Won't ever change, may think it's strange
I'm born to rock & roll, I'm here to stay, yeah ~

Robert Plant
Tall Cool One
Now And Zen

Like a strange cat running in the heat of the night
Got a fire in my eyes, got a date with delight
Some kinda moaning in the heart of the storm
I'm gonna love you so hard, if you want your loving done
Lighten up baby I'm in love with you...

With my one hand loose I aim to satisfy
You like my loving machine, I like your bloodshot eyes
Real gone girl jumping back with the beat
I'll be your tall cool one with those crazy feet
Lighten up baby I'm in love with you...

I'm so tall and you're so cute, let's play wild like wildcats do
You're gonna rock your tall cool one
I'm gonna say that - you're gonna say - aaah......

You stroll, you jump, you're hot and you tease
'Cause I'm your tall cool one, and I'm built to please...

M-m-move over mister step on back in the crowd
'Cause she's a whole lotta sister 'bout to drive me wild
Lotta places I've been seen, lotta names lotta words
No one compares to my real gone girl
Lighten up baby I'm in love with you ~

Molly Hatchet
Dreams
Molly Hatchet

Just one more morning i had to wake up with the blues
Pulled myself out of bed, put on my walking shoes
Went up on the mountain to see what i could see
The whole world was falling right down in front of me....

'cause i'm hung up on my dreams i'll never see
Yeah babe, oh help me babe
Or this will surely be the end of me, yeah....

Pull myself together, put on a new face
Climb down off the hilltop baby
And get back in the race....

'cause i'm hung up on dreams i'll never see
Yeah babe, oh help me babe
Or this will surely be the end of me, yeah ~

Stevie Ray Vaughan
Couldn't Stand The Weather
Couldn't Stand The Weather

Comin' through this business of life
There's rarely time if I'm needed to
Ain't so funny when things ain't feelin' right
Then daddy's hand helps to see me through
Sweet as sugar love won't wash away
Rain or shine, it always here to stay
All these years you and I've spent together
All this, we just couldn't stand the weather ~

Like a train that stops at every station
We all deal with trials and tribulations
Fear hangs the fellow that ties up his years
Entangled in yellow and cries all his tears
Changes come before we can go
Learn to see them before we're too old
Don't just take me for tryin' to be heavy
Understand, it's time to get ready for the storm ~

Bad Company
Bad Company
Bad Company

Company, always on the run
Destiny is the rising sun
Oh I was born 6-gun in my hand
Behind a gun I'll make my final stand
That's why they call me

Bad company and I can't deny
Bad company
Till the day I die...

Rebel souls, deserters we are called
Chose a gun and threw away the sun
Now these towns
They all know our name
6-gun sound is our claim to fame
I can hear them say...

Bad company and I won't deny
Bad company
Till the day I die...

Tell me that you are not a thief
Oh But I am
Bad Company, it's the way I play
Dirty for dirty....
Oh Somebody Double-crossed me

Yeah, we're Bad company
Kill in cold blood

Jimi Hendrix
Purple Haze
Are You Experienced

Purple haze all in my brain
Lately things just don't seem the same
Actin' funny, but I don't know why
'Scuse me while I kiss the sky....

Purple haze all around
Don't know if I'm comin' up or down
Am I happy or in misery?
Whatever it is that girl put a spell on me...

Purple haze all in my eyes
Don't know if it's day or night
You got me blowin', blowin' my mind
Is it tomorrow, or just the end of time?

Bob Dylan
Like A Rolling Stone
Highway 61 Revisited

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
You thought they were all kiddin' you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin' out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And ask him do you want to make a deal?

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
When they all come down and did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Suite: Judy Blue Eyes
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

It's getting to the point where I am no fun anymore, I am sorry.
Sometimes it hurts so badly I must cry out loud, ‘I am lonely.'
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are, you make it hard.

Remember what we've said, and done and felt about each other
oh babe, have mercy.
Don't let the past, remind us of what we are not now, I am not dreaming.
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are, you make it hard.

Tearing yourself away from me now, you are free and I am crying.
This does not mean I don't love you, I do, that's forever, yes, and for always.
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are, you make it hard.

Something inside is telling me that I've got your secret. Are you still listening?
Fear is the lock and laughter the key to your heart and I love you.
I am yours, you are mine, you are what you are
and you make it hard, and you make it hard, and you make it hard, and you make it hard.

Friday evening, Sunday in the afternoon, what have you got to lose?
Tuesday morning, please be gone, I'm tired of you what have you got to lose?
Can I tell it like it is, listen to me baby ~
it's my heart that's a suffering, it a-dying and that's what I have to lose.

I've got an answer. I'm going to fly away, what have I got to lose?
Will you come see me Thursdays and Saturdays? What have you got to lose?

Chestnut brown canary, ruby throated sparrow,
sing a song, don't be long, thrill me to the marrow.
Voices of the angels, ring around the moonlight,
asking me, said, she so free, how can you catch the sparrow?
Lacy, lilting lyrics, losing love lamenting.

Change by life, make it right, be my lady.

To the Cannabis warriors every where;

Triumph;

Out in the streets inspiration comes hard
The joker in the deck keeps handin' me his card
Smilin' friendly he takes me in
Then breaks my back in a game I can't win
Jivin', hustiln', what's it all about?
Everybody always wants the east way out
Thirty golden pieces for the Judas kiss
What's a nice boy doin' in a place like this?

CHORUS:
Never Surrender - keep your dreams alive
Never Surrender - hold your head up high

Modern apathetics; you got plenty of nothing to say
Some are born to follow: some will make their own way
Today you found a hero tomorrow you'll forget
You're lookin' for convenient truth you haven't found it yet
You don't make commitments no time for regrets
Easy come and easy go and easy to forget
You don't ever take responsibility
Don't you know that part of you is part of me

CHORUS

Never Surrender, it's easier said than done
But you go to finish what's already begun
Never, that's forever, seems like such a long time
But I only got one life to live - It's gonna be mine

Never Surrender - we cannot be denied
Never Surrender - spread your wings and fly

the Winner Loses

the Winner Loses

The winner Loses, by Body Count from the album of the same name!

My friends addicted - to cocaine
Smokes day n night drives his ma n pa insane.
Livin his life, in the dark light,
Every penny he gets, goes into the pipe

(Louder) He wants to borrow some money from me!
Do you think im blind/dont know the score/cant see???????
Chorus
You wanna get high as the sky
youre kissing your life goodbye
You think its a game that you play
But the winners lose
but the winners lose it all somedaaaayyyyy
2nd verse

You dont know who you are, youre losin your mind.
Things get a lkittle tight he committed a crime!
GIVE ME UR MONEY-OR GIVE ME UR LIFE
YA BETTA EMPTY YA POCKETS BECAUSE YA , YA DONT LIVE TWICE

He took the money to the dope-man,and he said he had the best
Next thing you knew CARDIAC ARREST.
It was a rollercoaster he couldnt get off!
the next thing I knew, My friends life was lost
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.


I just found out an old mate who I used to crash with out ion the streets has died form a heart attack at the age of 28.....was on the old bolivian marching powder...and then crack from being 15 years old. Silly cunt died doing exactly the same thing that killed John Belushi
So this song is pretty apt really

 

[Guest]

Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond the illusion
I was soaring ever higher, but I flew too high
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreamin',
I can hear them say

Carry on my wayward son,
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Now don't you cry no more

Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, it surelyÂ
means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune, but
I hear the voices say

Carry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
Surely heaven waits for you

- Kansas

sideshow blues

My land lady treats me like I don’t pay my rent
Took my car to my mechanic, I ain’t seen it since
My phone is always ringin’ when I want to be alone
They try and sell me everything from Heaven to cologne
Everybody’s got an offer I can’t refuse
It’s a circus out here momma
Your baby’s got them Sideshow Blues

It’s all a big commercial, it’s a video of a man
It’s a plot to put an end to my attention span
They make up all these issues, I never understood
If I thought I could change things I’d run out to Hollywood
But it’s hard to kick the door down wearing seven dollar shoes
It’s a circus out here momma
Your baby’s got them Sideshow Blues

I’ve got them Sideshow Blues
I want to tame the lions
These center ring rich kids ain’t even trying
From college to the big top they take the best positions
While I’m out in this tent with these freaks and musicians
While I’m out in this tent with these freaks and musicians
I’m moaning them Sideshow Blues

I try to tell my girlfriend she’s the only one that I’ve got
This chick I hardly knows keeps on telling her she’s not
She got a loaded pistol, she waves it all the time
Says, “Sometimes you’ve gotta kill a boy
to keep his ass in line”
Well, that’s the way she sees it, she says she saw it on the news
It’s a circus out here momma
Your baby’s got them Sideshow Blues

See people play satanic records, and you don’t know when they’ll freak
From quiet kid to maniac to movie of the week
We’re killing over cocaine, dyin’ over sex
We’re bowing down and praying to who’ll ever cuts the check
When I go to church on Sunday, I can’t help sleep in the pews
It’s a circus out here momma
Your baby’s got them Sideshow Blues
It’s a circus out here momma
Your baby’s got them Sideshow Blues
It’s a circus out here momma
Your baby’s got them Sideshow Blues
