Shared on Thu, 09/21/2006 - 11:20After having bloged last week about the Graphic Novel "Pride of Baghdad" (see blog below)
this news out of the war in Iraq struck a cord. Not only are the "lions" continuing
to be killed, they are being killed in ever increasing numbers. This month alone, they
lost more then double what we lost on 911. At some point we will
have to realize that we have actually killed 100's of times more innocent life then we lost on that day.
Whether it be by our own weapons or by indirectly opening up the flood gates. Some how that is going to come back to haunt us.
My Clan mate, fellow A team member, and team slayer buddy Phlizzer turned me onto some great new music by John Mayer. One particular great song is called "waiting on the world to change" Its a powerful song about some of the frustrations that i often find myself experiencing now a days. Here is a live performance of the song. "When they own the information, they can bend it all they want! " That pretty much sums it up for me now a days. I posted the Lyrics below as well. Enjoy. And thanks Dr Phlizz! :-)

Waiting On The World To Change
me and all my friends
we're all misunderstood
they say we stand for nothing and
there's no way we ever could
now we see everything that's going wrong
with the world and those who lead it
we just feel like we don't have the means
to rise above and beat it
so we keep waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
it's hard to beat the system
when we're standing at a distance
so we keep waiting
waiting on the world to change
now if we had the power
to bring our neighbors home from war
they would have never missed a Christmas
no more ribbons on their door
and when you trust your television
what you get is what you got
cause when they own the information, oh
they can bend it all they want
that's why we're waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
it's not that we don't care,
we just know that the fight ain't fair
so we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
and we're still waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
one day our generation
is gonna rule the population
so we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
