MY WORDS OF CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SLEEPLESS
Im lost in a land of fear
Reality hits hard an here comes a tear
It drops down rolls off the cheek
I cant feel pain,an my body's geting weak
Its getin cold an the blood starts to drip
My hearts skipin a beat an im diein to quik
My eyes black out an i ask why me?
Im gonna die soon what happened to harmony
Red becomes white
My vein's become black
Im dien slowly now the tears come back
I watch death creep apon my bed
Where i lay in blood an my bodys dead
Hes dark like the night and quick like sand
As the room starts to shake he takes my hand
Throws me in a dark hole souls fly around
I scream my loudest bt there remains no sound
I get flashbacks an my dad points high
The room lights up by the moonlit sky
He tells me its not time for me to fall
I hear a voice crying an my temperature falls
Im losing air an my face is blue
I cant speak i feel trapt unsure what to do
I cant see anything an i hear loud screams
My name is Eddi Gonzales an welcome to my dreams....
WAR
The screamz get louder the blood gets thicker
The wouds get bigger the blood drips quiker
The nitez get longer the heat gets str0nger
Another nite an0ther life
Another fight another wife
0ne more death 2 more fall
0ne more killed we stand tall
Two more l0st 0ne more boss
Two more fall 0ne m0re l0ss
The war w0nt help n0 end 2 the system
More lifez l0st and death glady t0ok em
We l0st and havnt even started
0ne s0ilder 2 s0ilder we l0st regardless
No limit for power no limit 4 tearz
We l0st many and gained more fearz
Wat if wat kuld wat might
Who did where did questi0nz kryed at nite.
The screamz get louder the blood gets thicker
The wouds get bigger the blood drips quiker
The nitez get longer the heat gets str0nger
A critical synical way
A lyrical typical day
Double triple the play
Goverment d0esnt say
Why mus the in0cent die first
A gunsh0t wound heart beat burst
WORKING PROJECTS
The fr0ntlinez 0f n0 mans land
The bl0odlinez of an in0cent man
The bodyz of many
The honor of n0ne
The heart beatz of few
The visi0n 0f 0ne
Blood pourz like water
As the screamz get louder
The fear of death is stronger then u an me
A soilder a father a man of insanity
The war has changed his case His cheating wife has changed his faith
Mother has cancer fatherz g0ne
Killing is his life it w0nt be l0ng
By.Eddi Gonzales
Time For Change
Sick of war and people diein
Sick of war and people cryn
Why cant we just rejoice
I want you to listen to my voice
Its time to make a change
So put your fist up with all your rage
No matter your color no matter your age
Time to strike back
Make an impact
In your city or nation
And one day you will get your standing ovation
We got freedom of speech and freedom or press
But the goverment has tookin it now where all a mess
We cant do what we plz
They take the power by all means
------------------------------------------------
Dont you think its time for change?
We need a system more humane
So step up its time to rise
Time to rise and open ur eyez
Time open ur eyez and realize
Use wut u got we are all TOOLZ in this nation time to Utilize
------------------------------------------------
Its hard to get many involved
But we need to do somthing to evolve
The American Dream is dieing
But its ok soon we will be flying
cause the land is flowing
with milk and honey
bread and butter
and justice
if you just keep on going
We can make it
The fuse is lit
Time to explode out Dreams
Break free from this Goverment scheme
------------------------------------------------
Dont you think its time for change?
We need a system more humane
So step up its time to rise
Time to rise and open ur eyez
Time open ur eyez and realize
Use wut u got we are all TOOLZ in this nation time to Utilize
------------------------------------------------
Dont change u Change ur way
Try 2 help out our nation each day
Recycle ur goods
Clean ur hoods
Donate what u can
Do what u can to change the plan
Do what you can to change da man
Time to rise time to TAKE A STAND!!!
Time to become activist and realist
Time to bring life TO our fantasy
And make the American Dream Reality
Spread the change this is an epic outbreak
Nothings permanent its Never to LATE
------------------------------------------------
Dont you think its time for change?
We need a system more humane
So step up its time to rise
Time to rise and open ur eyez
Time open ur eyez and realize
Use wut u got we are all TOOLZ in this nation time to Utilize

Been super loaded up with activities and actions, while writing and performing with my new band. THAT is my life at the moment! What else you getting into these days? Any new poems/raps? Holla!
These poems are very impressive and powerful. Are these coming from personal experience? I hope there are people in your community who listen to your poems and talk with you about the issues you see. This cycle of safety/violence/revenge/etc. is happening all over the world, and there are so many unsung heroes who have found ways to transcend the violence through creativity and innovation. Hip-hop itself, as you may know, was coined when Afrika Baambata proposed gangs battle through breakdance rather than gunfights.
Anyway, I think you are an incredible writer, and whoever's joining the Chicago street team is lucky because hopefully you'll perform these pieces at the events!
BTW - sorry it took me so long to get back to you..it's been a looooooong week at work. :-)
I am kinda leaving this comment in reply to your post about making music videos to post on websites.. Not to sure what your ideas are but I have made a few music videos using images and I would be willing to help you .. Check out my videos
