i could not say this better so enjoy

these words i draw on when outgraded in chess , it inspires me but it applies to more than chess ,lyrics in description , hope you enjoy        

in case you have buffering or cant view yt vids

is it just me or is there a common message from all these words ?

i see that they speak of tolerance hope and belief in our innate ability to be better than who we are if only we will work together regardless of any superficial differences

i admit william wallace was more up for a good old toe to toe with the foe but its william wallace and he is worth a mention

but each ask us to dismiss the petty tyrants and realise that we are capable of acheiving all the lies and broken promises the tyrants gave

we can end the problms we face ,, are you up for the challenge?

but the are so few when you consider the number of tyrannised

from clash of the swords by hawkwind

"we were born , to be free , not live in terror and tyranny "

certainly watching this one again

nice! hi all

hello amie , glad you like it

im glad you asked i found this

ok this ones  for you to enjoy

When I asked you to lend me a fiver
You said you were already broke
And when I explained you were living in chains
You assumed it was some sort of joke
You wanted a job and then got one
And learned jokes about sex, Jews, and blacks
Got married to help pay the mortgage
Got wound up when you had to pay tax

What happened to you with your ideas?
What happened to all your hopes and fears?
Ex-Teenage rebel- same old story

When I asked you what you thought of the arms race
Asking you who d gonna win?
You remembered a man on the telly and said
I agree with him
You say everything s alright really
You say that I m just paranoid
You tell me it s always been the same
And there s some things I cannot avoid

So what happened to your old opinions?
The thoughts that you had for so long?
That inspired a thousand rebellions
Against what was and still is so wrong
You tell me you used to be crazy
And paranoid like I am now
You soon realized There was no reason why
So you gave up and soon settled down

And I tell you that you are the problem
Which is why you can t see it no more
The strength of us all could demolish the wall
But you chose to walk through the door
Living a life of compromise
What you re supporting is what you despised
Was all that you said just a useful disguise?
Or was it all just little white lies?
Little white lies
To help you survive
Is there no guilt in your mind?
Is there no guilt in your eye

not my words Crystal i will get the bands vid

couldnt agree more

scepticism is natural , weve had so many tell us of lands filled with milk and honey , but in an age where we also find ignorance intolerance and hate ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

how are we to say no this doesnt have to be this way

ive chosen understanding , acceptance and  an abiding love for our species , will it work ? im unsure , but i look to those greats of our shared history and see that they had success whilst facing the same malaise

i assume you meant 'who are we to say'
