Redeeming Truth

So I catch the tears from her eyes
I look up to her face and i see its no surprise
Shes smiling again, though she must hurt inside
Another blackened star in the sky

And so she covers up her tears
She manages to cover up the scars
Along her arms, truth screaming out muffled by her sleeves
Waiting to be noticed, to be cared about

Oh, you need to live on
Oh, you've got friends to hold on to

Stop bleeding, its just not right
You got me and your parents worried with fright
You dont need to make a sound, take that knfe to the ground
I'l be here waiting on. the other side



Breakdown***



hold On. Don't go
Hold on don't let Go
Hold On. Keep on holding
Hold On. HOld ON


(Screamng)

Hold On.

A good day.

Have done a buncha recording of the guitar today. And yeah. Deejay is making all the beats and all that cool producing stuff in which he specializes in.

Yeah. i think like 5 songs we've made today. The album is not too far from production. The only setback will be the writing of the lyrics. Pretty hard when our music is all over the place =P

If you like music you'll love our album. It is very well rounded with different genres of music. Its gonna be awesome.

Peace,

Winter Fall (A Winter Song)

A little poem on how i feel about winter. The change in seasons. And also. change in feelings...








A cool winter’s breeze
Like water in the desert
A new found season
Full of fun and glory

After leaves of brown fall
The joy of the season comes full on
The freezing cold soothes my soul
After leaves of past love falls down

This season of white
After a season so dark
Just brings to my heart
A quick jump start

Spring, summer, autumn, winter
The seasons rotating round and round
But nothing can bring joy to my heart
Like the cold soothing winter breeze.

But as the seasons start anew
Would your feelings for me stay alight the wind
As the trees sway felling their leaves
Would my love also shake away

Leave me in this winter land
Leave my memories next to the corspe
Of our love that was here and now is lost
Lay me to sleep next to our love gone frost..

Without You (A Winter Song)

Well I wrote this. Yeah. I'll record and stuff later. I hope you guys like it...


Its pretty..deep to me




This winter grows so cold without you in my arms
Our distance grows further as the seasons change and change
I’m missing every moment I spent in your charm
With every day without my mind becoming deranged

Come back here for winter time
Honey I miss you so
Let these words written in ink
Become the epiphany that brings you back

December 25th, a new bright day without you in my arms
An empty bed, a cold breeze coming in an empty room
Let the snow mark down the days I knew you’d be alarmed
To find me here cold, alone. Let your imagination assume.

Come back here. Its winter time
It’s been a long time coming now
Let my words spoken in love
Become your beacon on the way home

Employee Harassment. Lets avoid it.

You know. I really hate sexual harassment. This is my readiness. I want to preach it.




Steps Employers Can Take to Avoid Sexual Harassment Lawsuits1.) If your company does not have a sexual harassment/discrimination policy, get one fast! The policy should communicate that the company is taking a "zero tolerance" approach toward sexual harassment. Have an attorney review it, and make sure it gets out to all your employees either through the employee handbook or in memo form. Have the employees sign it to acknowledged that they received and read the policy. The policy should be verbally communicated to all new employees, and can even be posted in the workplace. If you have employees whose primary language is not English, have your sexual harassment policy translated or communicate to them in their primary language.



2.) Provide different routes that employees can take to file complaints; i.e., calling a hotline, contacting the human resource department, or by contacting their supervisor. Also the employee should have the option of talking with a male or female company representative.


3.) Conduct sexual harassment training, even if it is only composed of reading material or watching a video, something is better then no training at all.


4.) Conduct yearly meetings with your supervisors to review the sexual harassment policy, and to make sure that they understand that an employee does not need to suffer negative consequences in order to make a claim of sexual harassment. Inform the supervisors that even mild to moderate sexual jokes or statements can create an atmosphere of hostility that will make some employees uncomfortable, and could lead to the creation of an environment where sexual discrimination could develop. The supervisor should also be directed to always inform upper management of any sexual harassment complaints he or she receives from employees. Supervisors should never promise confidentiality with an employee when the information relates to sexual harassment.


5.) Conduct a yearly sexual harassment survey among your employees. The survey can be done anonymously and should be distributed with a copy of the company’s sexual harassment policy. The survey can simply ask the employees (male and female) if they have experienced any form of sexual harassment during the past year. Why do a survey? The results of the survey will tell a court that your company is actively engaged in preventing and correcting sexual harassment. Remember, that the Supreme Court has just determined that an employer can be held liable for incidents of sexual harassment that they are unaware of occurring. So, one method of defense will be to demonstrate to the court or a jury that your company conducts yearly meetings with supervisors and also conducts a yearly sexual harassment survey to attempt to uncover sexual harassment violations before they cause problems for your employees.


6.) Conduct investigations promptly and thoroughly. After the dispute is resolved, a follow up should be done with the employee to ensure that no one has suffered retaliation. Make sure your sexual harassment policy spells out clearly that retaliation against an employee filing a sexual harassment complaint is illegal and will not be tolerated.


7.) Treat same-sex harassment, and men reporting harassment, the same as you would for a woman reporting her male supervisor being sexually inappropriate.


8.) Always document the results of any sexual harassment complaint or investigation. Not only document the results, but document any corrective action that you asked the employee or supervisor to take. Follow up on any corrective action so you can document if the employee fails to take advantage of your companies polices/procedures or any corrective action that your company takes to prevent the sexual harassment from occurring again in the future.


9.) Inform all employees that it is their obligation to report sexual harassment that they either experience or witness.

Life Of A Ten Year Old Girl (Song)

This is a true life story. Not of me but a close frend's. I finally wrote a song about it. So here it is. The actaul recording will come soon


And there He stands with open arms
waiting for the the sun to dawn
To see a girl that lives in harm
Coming back to a shepard like a fawn

And back at home she lives in scare
Red black scars shown are beneath her hair
Parents getting drunk at the fair
Never recieving love it as so rare

Its tis simple to derive
That she goes home and cries al night
She sleeps in her closet due to fright
That her parents again may get into a fight

Theres no reason to believe
That someone like her may never recieve
A sort of love that you cant see
But thats the pain i want to relieve

And this is where she starts a new life

Theres still hope up above
Go and pray to God for love
He is there to keep you safe
Never again is it ever to late
To send dear God such a prayer
He loves you so much he will repair
The broken marriage your parents shared
God will heal you, for He is there

And now she cowers due to fear
Mom and Dad are divorcing this year
Now that shes 13 its quite so clear
that dads almost gone its really near

The night he leaves she says dont go
but in return he says honey you ought to know
I dont love your mom anymore
Im seeing someone else now so i have to let you go

Shes now 16 her mom doesnt care
shes pregnant now lifes not quite there
her boyfriend just left and now she says its not so fair
she now lives a life full of sorrow and depair

And this is where she starts a new life

Theres still hope up above
Go and pray to God for love
He is there to keep you safe
Never again is it ever to late
To send dear God such a prayer
He loves you so much he will repair
The broken marriage your parents shared
God will heal you, for He is there

And now I leave with an unfinished story
Lets just say that she gave God all her glory
She now lives quite happily
With a husband thats not so wishy washy

Her prayer was sent up above
And with this prayer God poured down his love
The rest of the story you can imagine
Cuz she dedicated her life to God with a burning passion

I For Disaster

Another bluesy song I just wrote. About my feelings. just now. Yes. wait till its recorded.


V1
Everything's okay. the shining light in her eyes
Just makes the rest of my day. Way better than i ever coulda thought
I can see her smile glimmering like the suns light on the surface of a pool
Just pause the moment take a picture nothing like this can ever get better
V2
She makes my day like a rainbow in the sky after hours of rain
Like seeing a diamond in full shine after working hours in the cold hard coal
She makes me smile the way a mother comes back to a baby at home
She lifts my day the way a thermometer goes up when the sun finally rises
PC
And everytime she walks by. I can never catch her eye.
C
Cuz i. I see the way she looks at me
With an eye of why him, of a look like hes not worth anythin
Cuz I. See the way she trats me
With a hey who are you, you are anything but cool. everyday
B
Feel her cold hard stare, going right through your spine
I can see why she never wants to be with me
C
Cuz i. I see the way she looks at me
With an eye of why him, of a look like hes not worth anythin
Cuz I. See the way she trats me
With a hey who are you, you are anything but cool. everyday
O
Is it just because Im never gonna be as good looking as him...

Leave Her Here

I wrote this song for those guys that just had this girl that just kept using them. The kinda of 'money on her mind all the time' girl. Gold-digger. But it can also apply to other women. It was just what I felt right now.

Its pretty bluesy. When i record it I guess you'll hear the bluesy kinda tone.





V1
In between the crossroads We separate and meet.
But way along the road you get tired and lose your feet
Lying on the road down on the ground
Yell out for comfort, but find out that noones around
PC
Everything that i had done
everything that i had to blunder
Everything that just went wrong
All the things you ripped asunder
C
Taking separate paths you can see your own way
This is your rewards for walking astray
I guess i have no choice but to be her greatest fear
This is your consequence now i just gotta leave you here
V2
Its too close for comfort you have a long way to go
But the next time i see you maybe your kindness will actually show
You seem to miss me like you loved me but thats no reason to distress
But every time i get near its that my vision is clearly messed
PC
Everything that i had done
everything that i had to blunder
Everything that just went wrong
All the things you ripped asunder
C
Taking separate paths you can see your own way
This is your rewards for walking astray
I guess i have no choice but to be her greatest fear
This is your consequence now i just gotta leave you here
B
You seem to try to hold me on
But i dont need your silly remarks
Of why you want me back
Of how you'll die if im gone

Guitar Solo

C2
Go back to your own path I dont wanna ever see you again
I can clearly see you were just using me
I dont need you back in my arms i want you back where you belong
Im just gonna go and mind my business, and then leave you here
