Lyrics

Survivor-Eye of the tiger

Risin’ up, back on the street (getting myself back in the game)
Did my time, took my chances (served my time in jail, took all risks)
Went the distance, now I’m back on my feet (went down the wrong road, now back on track)
Just a man and his will to survive (just me trying to survive in a bad world)
So many times, it happens too fast (happens again and again)
You change your passion for glory (exchanging feelings for triumph)
Don’t lose your grip on the dreams of the past (don’t forget the past)
You must fight just to keep them alive (got to struggle to remember)
It’s the, eye of the tiger, it’s the thrill of the fight
Risin’ up to the challenge of our rival (trying to bravely face a bigger person)
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night (the toughest man gets more)
And he’s watchin’ us all with the eye of the tiger… (Staring down on weaker people)
Face to face, out in the heat (fighting in pressure)
Hangin’ tough, stayin’ hungry (staying tough, not quitting)
They stack the odds still we take to the street (the odds are against me, but I still stay strong)
For the kill with the skill to survive (for one goal, with the skills to get it)
It’s the eye of the tiger, it’s the thrill of the fight
Risin’ up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he’s watchin’ us all with the eye of the tiger…
Risin’ up, straight to the top (I’m going to reach my goal)
Had the guts, got the glory (got courage, got fame)
Went the distance, now I’m not gonna stop (I got this far, and I’m not quitting now)
Just a man and his will to survive


It’s the, eye of the tiger, it’s the thrill of the fight
Risin’ up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
And he’s watchin’ us all with the eye of the tiger…

Patriotism

10-18-10
Does Patriotism still matter?
Atop the famous statue of Iwo Jima are some of the millions of faces of people who bravely and courageously fought in the terrible and horrific war of WWII. Those people fought for one country and within that country a flag, a flag that was sewn from liberty, its stripes are red from the blood of those who fought in the war that made this country, the blue is from the beautiful rivers and lakes in our land, and the white stars are of the patriotic hearts that make our country strong. That country is called America, the land of the free and home of the brave. People still wonder if patriotism still matters, some say yes others say no. I feel bad for the ones who say no because you should always love your country and praise the hard working people. Whether in politics to the military to even the police and fire department you always show recognition through patriotism.
Today people still wonder if patriotism still matters, probably because the American Revolution is over and World War One and Two are done and over and we really don’t need to do it anymore. But there are so many more things in this time that still relies on it like the current war in Iraq and Afghanistan, the courageous men and women fighting for our country in the harsh blazing, humid, sandy deserts of the Middle East. Those people have to struggle for survival because of the lack of moisture. What about those patriotic people of congress, each and every one of them deserves patriotism from citizens like us for their hard work and careful decisions like making fair laws for us, passing important bills that make this country a better place.
Patriotism does still matter; it’s what brought this country together, it’s what helped us through all the past wars, WWI, WWII, The Korean War, The Vietnam War, and The American Revolution. All the past wars and struggles we got through because of patriotism even today we still use it because we still need it.

Poem

Food
Food is very good, we eat food every day, but we always have to pay. There are foods of all kinds; some come from pig’s behinds. Some people eat foods that are bugs, you know, the ones you find under rugs.
You can eat food in the sun, but if you find a bee you'd better run.
People eat bad food and become fat, nobody wants to become that. Healthy food is here to stay, so you can stay healthy for another day!

LA response

The year was 1940, a man and a woman were standing by the train station, Bonny and Clyde Edward were their names. They were there with hundreds of other men and women but only the men boarding the train. Clyde wearing his military uniform and leather jacket around it, carrying his luggage, he was about to board the train. "Be careful!" Yelled Mrs Edward with tears in her eyes, "don't worry I will, I promise!" Mr. Edward yelled back as he boarded the train. "ALL ABOARD!!!" Yelled a man working on the train, as he got on the locomotive, the train started spewing smoke from the stack, an extremely high pitched whistle came from the train as it began to move faster and faster. With a poof of smoke it was out of site hundreds of people cheering and saying their last goodbyes especially Mrs Edward who's goodbye lasted the longest.
