			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>  <strong>Drew Bonus</strong> and <strong>Steve McVeigh </strong>  The confederate battle flag came to war To defend the slavery that it stood for The flag backed hate and freedom for some It chased down others and left them undone  The flag waved on beside the burning cross Scaring more the ones already lost The white mans hate continued to feed On their prey, on their strength and steed  Chorus: All of this hate is bringing thunder It&rsquo;s got me in a haze, runnin for cover, But still I see no changes, People flying hate, about a war already lost Look what that damn flag has already cost So I know, its up to us to make the fear disappear So brothers where we gonna go from here How are we gonna fix this concentrated mess That has brought this damn country so much stress the stars and bars has evolved into a sign of deadly hate that plagues our crazed minds so tell me brothers where we gonna go from here where we gonna, where we gonna, where we gonna, go, go,  go from here??  The flag is flown by the ku klux klan The men of white with dirty hands Their pointed hats and unloved cloaks Are caked with dirt that they boast  The Ku Klux Klan bleeds blood of hate They fly the flag of a confederate state Saint Andrews Cross blows in the breeze Alongside people lynched from trees

<p> A; I&rsquo;m tired of the Iraq War<br /> Its time to step through the door<br /> The people care but the House isn&rsquo;t listening<br /> It&rsquo;s like we&rsquo;re not even existing</p>
<p> CHORUS Oh can&rsquo;t they see this just isn&rsquo;t right<br /> It&rsquo;s not fair to kill without a fight<br /> Poverty, warfare, and mistreating the citizens<br /> Just another reason to get rid of him.</p>
<p> We are starving a bunch of people that aren&rsquo;t involved in this<br /> What do you think of this injustice<br /> How would you like it if was your life<br /> Being wasted for a pointless, meaningless fight</p>
<p> CHORUS Oh can&rsquo;t they see this just isn&rsquo;t right<br /> It&rsquo;s not fair to kill without a fight<br /> Poverty, warfare, and mistreating the citizens<br /> Just another reason to get rid of him.</p>
<p> It is against our virtue and the ways of god<br /> It&rsquo;s time for a change<br /> Send in the peace squad.<br /> We must follow our hearts and what we believe in<br /> Reconciliation; one movement over the nation<br /> OOOOHHHHHHH.</p>
<p> CHORUS Oh can&rsquo;t they see this just isn&rsquo;t right<br /> It&rsquo;s not fair to kill without a fight<br /> Poverty, warfare, and mistreating the citizens<br /> Just another reason for all to start listening.

<p> By Madeline, Morgan and Ben</p>
<p> Throughout the world, there is no sound. Three planes, two buildings crash to the ground.</p>
<p> Chorus: All we do is hate, we all choose to discriminate. Our whole world is filled with lies, we have to stop now before it ruins our lives</p>
<p> 60 countries feeling the pain, makes their families go insane.</p>
<p> mothers and fathers will never come home. Their children are now left all alone</p>
<p> Chorus x2</p>
<p> Tens of thousands of flags hung at half mast, as hard as people try they can never erase the past</p>
<p> Followed by war, many more die. Its impossible to explain, why should i even try</p>
<p> Chorus x2</p>
<p> They are hated for the color of their skin, it is impossible, no one will ever win. World is in a bind, all we do is fight. Children left crying night after night. Fathers away in a far away land. They will come back but the war will never end.
</p>

<p> Chorus<br /> No one can tell you to kill<br /> It&rsquo; your own free will<br /> Life or death it&rsquo;s up to you<br /> It&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s in your heart<br /> It&rsquo;s what you chose<br /> Don&rsquo;t let the thoughts of others weigh you down<br /> Don&rsquo;t let their opinions suppress you to the ground<br /> Stand up. It&rsquo;s your choice.<br /> Don&rsquo;t let them take your voice.</p>
<p> Verse 2<br /> A mistake that took your fate<br /> Learned the consequences a bit too late<br /> Now it&rsquo;s time to not regret<br /> What&rsquo;s done is done, now do your best<br /> To make it through, struggle through, try to make it work</p>
<p> Chorus<br /> No one can tell you to kill<br /> It&rsquo; your own free will<br /> Life or death it&rsquo;s up to you<br /> It&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s in your heart<br /> It&rsquo;s what you chose<br /> Don&rsquo;t let the thoughts of others weigh you down<br /> Don&rsquo;t let their opinions suppress you to the ground<br /> Stand up. It&rsquo;s your choice.<br /> Don&rsquo;t let them take your voice.</p>
<p> Bridge<br /> There&rsquo;s a life inside<br /> A spark you can&rsquo;t deny<br /> Another being which you can&rsquo;t hide<br /> It&rsquo;s time to decide<br /> No more living a lie<br /> Don&rsquo;t defy your dreams, who you were meant to be<br /> Just show the world and they will see&hellip;..</p>
<p> Chorus<br /> No one can tell you to kill<br /> It&rsquo; your own free will<br /> Life or death it&rsquo;s up to you<br /> It&rsquo;s what&rsquo;s in your heart<br /> It&rsquo;s what you chose<br /> Don&rsquo;t let the thoughts of others weigh you down<br /> Don&rsquo;t let their opinions suppress you to the ground<br /> Stand up.

<p> The towers went down and people sought justice.</p>
<p> Terrorists were to blame, so the army went missing.</p>
<p> Osama slipped through the cracks, we couldn&#39;t answer</p>
<p> They said the constitution needed a change</p>
<p> If all people are to be the same,</p>
<p> Why do we torture and spy on just a few?</p>
<p> The founding fathers sure look ashamed,</p>
<p> when they saw the Patriot Act by George W.</p>
<p> Now they search without warrants, violates our rights.</p>
<p> Privacy is sacrificed</p>
<p> We lead this war, with no end in our sights,</p>
<p> Because tapping our lives pays a price</p>
<p> If all people are supposed to be treated the same,</p>
<p> Why do we torture and spy on just a few?</p>
<p> The founding fathers would be ashamed,</p>
<p> If they saw the Patriot Act by George W.</p>
<p> If the Act can&rsquo;t help us, what can?</p>
<p> Torture and fear is just not the way</p>
<p> To end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.</p>
<p> If rights are universal, this would end today.</p>
<p> Injustice and fear pervade the world&#8230;</p>
<p> If all people are supposed to be treated the same,</p>
<p> Why do we torture and spy on just a few?</p>
<p> The founding fathers would be ashamed,</p>
<p> If they saw the Patriot Act by George W.</p>

<p>They put a tag on his life (guilty or not)</p>
<p>Death is the price (wrong or right)</p>
<p>They don&rsquo;t care 2 cents if it&rsquo;s (truth or lie)</p>
<p>All they know is someone committed a crime</p>

<p>They put him in a cage now he has a reason to sing</p>
<p>Robbed of his freedom cuz they said that it change</p>
<p>But he gonna be robbed of his life for a crime</p>
<p>Sittin in a cell goin crazy inside</p>
<p>His life is in the hands of the man</p>
<p>So he put his soul in the lords palm</p>

<p>Ray Bailey and Michael Casimir</p>
<p>These are the reasons why we are aginst the traffic of men-body, as followeth:</p>
<p>There is a saying, that we should do to all men<br />
like as we will be done ourselves;<br />
making no difference of what generation, descent, or color they are.</p>
<p>And those who steal or rob men,<br />
and those who buy or purchase them,<br />
are they not all alike?</p>
<p>Here is liberty of conscience,<br />
which is right and reasonable;<br />
here ought to be likewise liberty of the body,<br />
except of evildoers.</p>
<p>If once these slaves<br />
(which they say are so wicked and stubborn men)<br />
should join themselves fight for their freedom,<br />
and handle their masters and mistresses,<br />
as they did handle them before;<br />
will these masters and mistresses take the sword at hand<br />
and war against these poor slaves, like, as we are able to believe,<br />
some will not refuse to do?</p>
<p>To the end we shall be satisfied on this point,<br />
and satisfy likewise our good friends and acquaintances<br />
in our native country, to whom it is a terror,<br />
or fearful thing, that men should be handled so<br />
in Pennsylvania.
