Motives and Thoughts

Rotating bodies, confusion of sound

Negative imagery, holding us down
Social delusion, clearly constructed
Human condition, morals corrupted
Trapped in reaction, lawlessness war
Dissatisfaction from bowels to core
Devil’s technology, strategy for
Human mythologies, urban folklore
Sick of psychology, counterfeit cure

Wicked theology, robbing the poor
Scheme demonology mislead the pure
Strictly strategically studying war
Light shown in darkness, image exposed
Few can see through the new emperor’s clothes
Lustful this hustle turn humans to hoes
When the blind lead the blind
Just more trouble and woes
It’s the mind that they chose
Its designed to stay closed

Standard of jokers, court just a logic
Sick looking cosmics, from schoolyards to college
Primitive man with civilize knowledge
System collapse and he still won’t acknowledge
God is the saviour, studies behavior
Trying to fix the mix mind that he gave ya
Stiff-necked scholars on prescription meds
Wishing their problems were all in their heads
Morale dilemma, pride is the root
Misguided from youth, heart divided from truth
Egyptians and Grecians, spiritually dead
Imperially led, by the gods in their heads

Motives and thoughts
Industrial wealth
Global economy, in it for self
Heart full of madness, covered with kind
Pleasure designed to take over your mind
Furnished in godliness, painted in good
This tainted priesthood got real saints misunderstood
While classes in government, set up the veil
And cultivate minds for more mythical tales
Typical Hollywood follies good girl
While vice and corruption take over the world

Motives and thoughts
Check your motives and thoughts
Blind with the wickedness, deep in your heart
Modern day wickedness is all you’ve been taught
Lied to your neighbors, so you get ahead
Modern day trickery is all you’ve been fed

Motives and thoughts
Check your motives and thoughts

"Oro" The Deity no woman ever sets her eyes on

On Tuesday, I got a call from my mum, telling me, I had to get home before six pm, as there has been information that the "Oro" deity was coming out. Things is we got a new King at my end after such a long battle and according to the Yoruba tradition, the Oro deity must come out. Sharply I carried my bag and rushed straight home. By 5.30pm, the streets were deserted, window blinds were pulled down

"Oro" is a deity that the woman never sets are eyes on, anyone who sees it never live to tell the tales, as she would be the sacrificial lamb. It is a revered deity, even a man who is not strong enough, he could also be used as a sacrificial lamb. Sacrificial Lambs are needed for make rituals for the coronation of the King.

Alone

Lying, thinking

Last night
How to find my soul a home
Where water is not thirsty
And bread loaf is not stone
I came up with one thing
And I don't believe I'm wrong
That nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.



Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.



There are some millionaires
With money they can't use
Their wives run round like banshees
Their children sing the blues
They've got expensive doctors
To cure their hearts of stone.
But nobody
No, nobody
Can make it out here alone.



Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.



Now if you listen closely
I'll tell you what I know
Storm clouds are gathering
The wind is gonna blow
The race of man is suffering
And I can hear the moan,
'Cause nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.



Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Seasons of Life

Read the story recently in a mag and I felt it cool to share...

There was a man who has four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too quickly...so he sent them all on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.

The first son went in winter, the second in spring, the third in summer and the last in autumn... when they had all gone and came back,he called them together to describe what they had seen.

The first son said the tree was ugly,bent and twisted...the second said no, it was covered with green buds and full of promise...the third disagreed;he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful,it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen...the last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit,full of life and fulfillment.

The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had all seen only one season in the tree's life...

He told them that :
"you cannot judge a tree, or a person by only one season, and that the essence of you are and the pleasure, joy and love that comes from that life can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up."
If one gives up when it's winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, and the fulfillment of your autumn.

So in this year be optimistic, stay focused and expect the the best and don't hastily judge people.
