Once Vs. Today ~ Poetry / Lyric ~ by: Orange Sherbet

Once, I reached out and a hand reached back.

Once

Once, I had friends that were there for me as I was there for them.

Once

Once, when I made time for another it was reciprocated.

Once

Today, we are self-consumed with far too much in-fighting.

Today

Today, it's all about how much stuff we can gather and keep to and for ourselves.

Today

Today, we are only all drifting further and further away from one another forever from this point until all of eternity.

Today

Once, I felt loved like I wanted to and I loved another as they wanted to be loved.

Once, others looked out for each other and not themselves.

Once

Once, it seems like this was all worth it but that's just never been the same since we started getting further and further away.

Once

Today, we are self-consumed with far too much in-fighting.

Today

Today, it's all about how much stuff we can gather and keep to and for ourselves.

Today

Today, we are only all drifting further and further away from one another forever from this point until all of eternity.

Today

O.J. Simpson Muslim / Islam Conversion / Las Vegas Attacks / Terrorism / Communication Through Music / Signing / Sign Language / Symbolism

In 2014 O.J. Simpson converts to Islam.

Personally, I was unaware of this and find it quite interesting. I was listening to a rap song and it prompted me to ask the question if OJ Simpson was Muslim?

It's important to look at a larger picture without being scared to speak your mind and to realize that you are allowed to stand strong and have confident discussion with others about any topic that any logical and rational adults would discuss together.

I'll state that this was part of my studies and so it remains and life unfolds and is a study with a new page turned every day and I personally simply just like to get a good look at the larger picture.

We should be as accommodating to others as the Earth is to us.

What had I been brought up this way, or that way, for another way?... I tried to remind myself each and every day.

I pray this man finds peace.

I pray we all find peace.

Now I'm going to explain to you of further truths... and I will share the rap song here as originally this was a vague Facebook post and of course nobody responded or even liked it... actually, I'm surprised it's still posted up. It's just facts.

[Bezz Believe]
First I mix that legal lean

http://www.abcactionnews.com/news/polk-county-parents-want-legal-lean-a-dietary-supplement-out-of-their-neighborhood
with that I don’t get tired then I call up Kevin Gates and the homie Mook Boy

[Chorus]
You best believe we on that paper chase
I talk that shit yo favorite rapper (Eminem? Who did a Trump Rap pathetically)been afraid to say,
He asked me for a front I told that bitch no way Jose
And I could get away with murder like my name (I think it says man) OJ
And when these haters go to hate we hit that
Fade away, that fade away (you best believe, we hit that) that fade away, fade away, that fade away (that please believe)
That legal lean make me fade away
Fade away

[Hook: Kevin Gates]
I’m a Steph Curry
Sip the lean, numb the pain, and pray it fade away man
Beat the body Johnny Cochran come and see today man (we'll send his (Jonny's firms' legal teams to each of your defenses)
In the jungle we gorillas, we not bathing apes(in city we are nasty)
OJSimpson with the trigger we gon make you late

[Verse 1: Bezz Believe]
Talk shit but I could back it up
Grind hard no matter what
Rings, no sleep
Hell, been through Hell twice
And I’m still standing tough
I’m just doin me
Couldn’t give a fuck about a hater
Tell em get out yo feelings Hoe and go and get some paper!
Scurred off in that V12
I’m a heavyweight I don’t need a scale
From the moment I open my eyes all I do is see sales
Wholesale to retail that legal lean going worldwide
That UPS sending packages out about the size of a P12

Motivated by loyalty
Only thing that’s important to me
Diamonds dancing around my neck
Same price as a quarter key
South Georgia to the Florida Keys
I threw my stamp on the Sunshine
I swear to God I have money, cars, and 3 different hoes at one time

[Chorus: Bezz Believe]
[Hook: Kevin Gates]

[Verse 2: Mook Boy]
I’m piled up like door sale
You throwback like Nextel
I could piss on a 100K
Air force, Sho G, Fuck a record deal
Wrists at the bottom of the pot
Going in circles call that a windmill
New choppa got night vision
And a twist-a-round like a steering wheel
Pull up I just tested coke, pump some gas in, catch a coke deal
Keep telling her to slow down she don’t wanna chill coz she on them pills
Steph Curry with the Mac 11 I could take a shot and then I fade away
Tear never fall down my eyes but I murk something tatted on my face
Me and he’s in this rental car we strapped up and we came through
Push a button yellow top lift up like Donald Trump’s toupee
My dawg benz just crawled up and then laid down in the drive way
My bitch keep playing mind games she don’t know a nigga finna fade away

[Chorus: Bezz Believe]
[Hook: Kevin Gates]

I know somebody feel me
In the slum where its filthy
All praise to Allah
It gon be difficult to kill me
I Am Mujahideen,

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mujahideen

[?] the lean
Say he got a vest on
Pop! Ima shoot him in the knees
Make him fade away

I’m a Steph Curry, I’m a Steph Curry
Make you fade away

Now watch the video and read the lyrics.

Next read below and then again Watch the video one more time reading the lyrics.

"OJ Simpson with the trigger... We going to make you late."

I'll also add here that some lyrics above are incorrect but most are correct and I will edit those a genius, or you can please.

Now I'm going to get to the root of causation.

Look at OJ Simpson's youth.

http://slideplayer.com/slide/2503561/

Understand that the stand up football player was embraced and then associated with a crime, and regardless of if he was guilty or not we all know this to be a fact, and our society institutionalized him as we do many. In fact we have more institutionalized people today in prisons then all of recorded history and that's a fact because that's what I studied in college and you can look up statistics for yourself and I will urge you to always do your own due diligence.

Now we have a man who feels like Society turned on him and he has converted and he is a shining Beacon to others and he is also an actor and there is no argument there either you can watch him on any film you want that he has starred in or played a supporting role in.

Don't you think this man hates what our country stands for and hates what he has gone through himself? Don't dare think for a moment I'm asking for you to share some type of sympathy or empathy with him or for him simply that for a second you may think what he probably feels like after everything he's been through regardless of blame let's not play the blame game here and divide... let's think about things logically and rationally.

Read this !!!

http://www.jewishpress.com/news/breaking-news/oj-simpson-converting-to-islam/2014/09/03/

from above:

"On a day in which an Islamist terrorist group again beheaded a western journalist, the conversion to Islam by someone who was charged with the murder of his ex-wife – who was nearly decapitated – is a gruesome coincidence."

I know what my studies are and I know what music is all about as a musician and an artist which can be well researched too.

I'm not even going to address all the signing in the video that could be a whole different report however and obviously closely tied together.

I want you to understand there is a great great amount of thought put into Communications and symbolism to be able to orchestrate events and that has always been the way it has been and that is the way it will always be and so don't think for one minute that all of this means nothing and it's that it's just putting up a front.

Who do you know who's going to say that they are the muhaJaheen? Who do you know that's give me a good talk about dealing drugs? Who do you know that's going to admit these types of things musically and put that front up and then live that Life 2? I could be wrong here.. it could be all just smoke and mirrors like everything else right?

Do you not realize there are people within this country and people from the outside from many other countries that absolutely hate our established government?

It doesn't matter today if your local state or federal government you are hated by a certain faction of the population in that faction of the population is about 50%.

Now everybody's that's the enemy is kind of poking the fire with the fire stick and they're hoping the race powderkeg will explode so that then when our country implodes in a civil war they can jump from the outside and just robbed us f****** blind.

It's not enough that the bible promises the end times in Revelations and it's not enough that the radicals no matter if they're radical whatever this or whatever that because it's not about this...

I am quite confident I know what I see here and I think it needs to be scrutinized at the very least because shouldn't we pay attention and be aware of our surroundings at all times and indeed be vigilant?

This is a new America and in this America terror is part of life now in this was also taught to me in college but in college when I attended we were not here yet but trust me a hundred percent it was well-known in the 80s that this day was going to come in my professors knew this.

When you institutionalize a man you break him.

It has long been known that Corrections does not work and we take from a man his very self worth and we should not do that no matter what his crime.

It would be more Humane to put a man permanently to rust than to steal his dignity !!!

We have institutionalized millions and millions of people that are of the lowest socioeconomic factor in the United States of America and it is been right there where the Muslim conversion factor has come into play and if you don't believe me again do your own due diligence I am stating nothing here but a fact once again in this paragraph.

What would you expect a broken person to do when a hand is outstretched towards them promising them what has been taken from them or what they have never had and that being those things negated or neglected by the hand of, as perceived by the targeted individual, the government and the system.

You have to look at Las Vegas and you have to just consider things and you have to understand that I just Simpson was released that day in Las Vegas.

Link on release in LasVegas Oct.1

"OJ Simpson with the trigger gonna make you late"

The trigger is / was OJ's release !!!

I'm gonna make you late, means I'm going to kill you!

My friends, we are Breeding the Beast right here at home. We are also ever softened after 8 years of a liberal president in the most liberal of times with the institutions being softened for the last three decades and I mean the upper education institutions of college and particularly.

I'll close with these lyrics once again, as nothing I could say would make us stronger point.

I know somebody feel me
In the slum where its filthy
All praise to Allah
It gon be difficult to kill me
I Am Mujahideen, [?] the lean
Say he got a vest on
Pop! Ima shoot him in the knees
Make him fade away

Cumberland, Maryland Investment In Cryptocurrencies​ Could Gaurantee A Bright Fiscal Future

This is a letter I submitted to the Cumberland Times News, my local newspaper, on October 5th, 2017 via email.

I have neither heard back from them nor seen this in print unless I have overlooked something.

I find it critically important to share this idea that I find as a very progressive solution two the possibility of financial issues in the future.

If you want to have success in the future then you invest today !!!

There has never been growth in any Marketplace like the record-setting growth of crypto currencies and if we had invested earlier this year at a little over $600 a piece, today we would own Bitcoins with a value each of roughly $4000 to $5,000 +, and quickly increasing. In fact, John McAfee, of the very famous McAfee Antivirus company and other fame, thinks that his statement that Bitcoin will reach $500,000 per each Bitcoin in 10 years or less is an absolute under estimate.

Cryptocurrencies will eliminate banking as we know it today completely !!!

You do not have to listen to a single thing I have to write hear about crypto-currencies cuz you can read all about it here from the original document.

Don't be ignorant !!!

Do your due diligence and understand that this is a critical move our city can make that can set a precedence across the world so that other municipalities, counties, jurisdictions, Etc can plan on making an Investment Portfolio that will Garner dividends in the future to offset shortfalls in the budget at a minimum.

We consistently pay tens of thousands of dollars for studies that tell us stuff that we already know about our area. We pay these tens of thousands of dollars in studies so that we will have directives on paper to do the things you would think we should already know to be doing.

Too often I see these types of reports to be just complete waste of money where the real money that could be the security and the further Rebirth of the city.

----------------------------------------------------------------

I am a city resident here in Cumberland, Maryland and have been since 2001 where I own my own home.

I believe the city should invest a minimum consideration of $10,000 in crypto currency, if not substantially more!!! I believe we should sell public investment savings bonds, or some type of public bond we design to legal specifics, to our residents and county residents, as well as Maryland residents and anybody else who wants to buy them.

We can have a 10-year investment plan, or so, maybe one for 5 and one for 10 years, for crypto currency investment, where it's kept under lock and key until we say it's mature in 10 years and we then want to use some of those funds towards the cities expenditures and more importantly future Investments as we build foundations with vision.

You have to think about what I'm going to say below and who I got permission from as well as what John McAfee says and what he thinks one single Bitcoin will be worth (soon...not tomorrow), which is a half million dollars EACH... and today one Bitcoin as roughly $4,200. John says that's actually an underestimate. At the beginning of the year the price was just $620 per Bitcoin.

Nothing has ever displayed such incredible growth in investing history!!! Nothing is ever displayed so much potential for future growth either and it is incredible to watch and equally nor such volatility. We cannot forget every coin has two sides as well as an edge which can later cut like a knife, not to ever be overlooked of course... and this is where and why some form of diversity must be considered.

I went to school with Michael Novogratz in high school... Just look up Galaxy Investment Partners. You may do your own due diligence to see who he is and that he highly recommends crypto currencies, and that he would not do this without certain knowledge. I'm not claiming Mr. Novogratz as a close personal friend, however a definite acquaintance and alumni of the same high school with similar upbringings, we wrestled together and, most recently, just several years ago, he read some of my poetry at a rather large group.

https://www.coinspeaker.com/2017/09/28/fortress-former-cio-michael-novogratz-establishes-worlds-biggest-crypto-hedge-fund/amp/

Mathematically $10,000 over 10 years will look insignificant as an investment and may garner this city several million, tens of millions, maybe even hundreds of millions of dollars in the coming decade when it matures !!!

If indeed we could ever coordinate something like this, which always seems to be the biggest problem… “the inability to act swiftly with efficiency and without division”... well... maybe... we would indeed have an ace in the hole !!!

Otherwise,...

this might be our very epitaph as an incorporated city !

Addition:

The truth is I lied in my article above. I believe we should invest a million but the shock value of a million dollars to all of the taxpayers here would just blow the entire idea up before those that are ignorant would do their own due diligence to understand what crypto currency even is for to study the growth That it is on.

I have studied these and depth and I am continuing to study crypto currencies and this is absolutely the most and credible investment opportunity that we will see for the rest of our lifetimes !

This will give Cumberland any type of future we desire to construct together if we make the investment and if we don't it might just be the end!

We have a county that suggest giving up our city Charter. I have a VOTE that suggests that we have better representation that instead of slinging absolutely despicable remarks, would instead suggest a solution as I have!

http://www.times-news.com/news/local_news/county-declines-to-fund-cumberland-s-requests/article_11c1392b-138c-5471-8d33-09b4592f4a69.html

I believe in thinking outside of the box so I can stay out of the box a little bit longer!

Here are some more facts.

I am the one who coined this expression, "Be Bold, Embrace Change". #BeBold

I offered my expression to be utilized but I did not know what it would be utilized for.

Far before the rolling Mills project came to fruition I suggested personally face-to-face to our mayor that the most Progressive cities in the country, and indeed in the world today, invest in themselves and they buy entire city blocks two remove old Urban Decay so that there will be renewal. If the city will not invest in itself who will believe in that city?

I understand this critically, and I also understand the criticalities of those in the Rolling Hills subdivision that did not want to leave their homes !

Personally, I would give my home up if I was made completely whole and offered another home in the city where I want to live. However what makes one completely whole versus another person complete a hole is two entirely different sets of Standards most often and of course we are now at this critical juncture where the city needs to decide if they want to use eminent domain to remove the remaining residents or to build around as you can read for yourself in this article and I don't want to get into these details as this has not been something I have ever been involved with other than my original suggestion, which I am not taking credit for the overall idea however it very well could be mine as you see my slogan is attached to the entire idea that was executed by the Cumberland Economic Development Commission.

I'm not trying to make a penny off of anything, I am simply suggesting progressive solutions so that our area can indeed have a future and that future needs to be built upon solid foundations today and we are going to need finances for this solid foundations and right now we have crumbling infrastructure !!!

Currently, via a leak of unknown origin, it's estimated that the sewage system in the city is leaking about 80,000 gallons of raw sewage into Wills Creek, for example, because we cannot find the leak.

80000 gallons of raw sewage a day into a creek EVERY DAY !!!

http://www.times-news.com/news/local_news/city-leak-spewing-gallons-of-sewage-daily-into-wills-creek/article_3f54c6b4-6958-5651-93cf-2465bee413ba.html

We consistently have to repair water mains because they break in the next one down the line which is of least resistance brakes or they break between the mains but typically at the mains and we continue to throw money at these things when what really needs to be done is the complete removal and replacement of entire systems of which it has been said there are no records of as they have been... well who knows what !!!

I am frustrated and I'm sure some of that shines through here and I am sorry for that little edge of anger however again I am simply looking for Solutions and I am only looking towards Visionary plans that will guarantee in a sure that there will be a great future here in Cumberland because the people here deserve that !!!

Perhaps for each person in the rolling Mills subdivision $5,000 in the Bitcoin can be invested and held for 10 years so that they can each be made whole as well (possibly as nothing is without risk) and I mean each and every single person displaced from that entire community. That means the deals already done and the deals that need to be done still.

Imagine if after the fact the city gave gifts to the willing citizens that were made to make a very tough decision. I personally appreciate your bold choices to move forward and therefore let our city move forward too.

Blackness I'm Coming Back from the Edge

I hope to be appreciated in this life,

But it's just unlikely to happen before my demise,

Are we all really just cows, really just cows, really just cows,?

We know what's coming,
yet we go through our routine each and every day as our eyes get bigger and bigger,
towards that ultimate demise.

I don't know why but right now I seen Blackness all around me,

I guess it's because a few times lately I've been right there at that edge,

I didn't want to be there but that's where medication left me,

And now I'm crawling back towards you my friends with everything I got all my everything I have because I want to continue with life I love this gift.

The Blackness will swallow and consume you, it will make you want to eat the end of the shotgun you know the business and I'm not talking about the in for pussies,

I'm talking about serious business and now finally I'm healing and not talking about terrible things but I'm talking about the positive things that a good Patriot and the contributing citizen should be focused upon and it's just amazing what chemicals can do to your body washed and a wash in chemicals.

My name is John and I am not a Baptist but I am John reclaim is no denomination because I do not believe in the divisiveness of any of that but I do believe in we need to be cleansed and in the holy spirit's name forever that is for you whatever religion you are I say in his name may you be cleansed and I say that you consume the fuel that is clean for your soul and pure and you have a snack if it gives you a lift but don't overindulge and your own religion never be a zealot nor harm another.

There is much Blackness all around as terror is the new Norm end of this I am ready and from my life already you motherfukers I have been forged

I always come back stronger than ever before and seen you're going to see me cut and hardcore and you're going to see gray on my head and on my face perhaps but you're going to think God damn this guy looks like he is ready to kick some ass.

I told you I'm going to be the best looking guy at 50 years old he have ever seen and now I am almost there but it took me getting to death's door and still not out of the woods I am crawling back I am crawling back.

Right at the most critical of times my best friend's return with help some of them thirty years and more I have not heard but somehow carries long these words and return with help they have returned with help and so time for grammar I have not it is upon you to carefully read these words

Encrypted, the babble of each day ever-changing, just naturally the way English works and remains alive and evolving language almost as if an organism.

Sure Miss You (Comin' Round and Round and Round and Round and Round) ~ Blues Tune ~ Poetry / Lyric

I sure miss you coming round,
Miss you coming round and round and round,
I miss you coming to my end of this town,
Miss you so much indeed I'm down.

I miss you coming round and round and round
X4

Guitar Solo

I don't know if I feel you coming round,
something out of place something wrong with the way you sound,
I don't think I feel you coming round.

I don't know if I can take you nit coming round,
Miss you so much,
Coming round and round and round.

Guitar Solo

Round and round and round and round and round.
X4

I can't stand you not comin' round',
out of my mind miss you so much astounds,
your perfect love when so encompassing around,
heart breaking fast now the only sound.

I don't know if I feel you coming round.

Round and round and round and round and round.
X4

Notes...
Starts upbeat, almost rockabilly but kick ass drums ends melancholy and slower, blues rock with thrash harsh rock drums, refer to studio work for vocal sounds, guitar and synth settings, alternate bass tracks, drum tracks additionally too.

I am Jesus Too, Part Two ~ P3 ~ ∆

Just because a paranoid schizophrenic states that somebody is chasing him does not make him a liar necessarily.

There's a million guys that are so crazy that they always are calling themselves the great massage I returned Jesus himself, but remember one of them is going to be correct !

And someday there will be that someone you that sins and then with another witness into their eyes a glimpse and indeed a stair and indeed a truth through another dimension each knowing this exact space time now only perfect and unique forever eternity and so think on that yourselves as myself as well as each.

Equilibrium

Some days they called it karma and there's days of yet I have not so long ago experience that I can't quite remember yet as it's early in the mountains where I'm stretching out my body so old like a vampire well they're young but anyhow just go. I am and you know equilibrium.

What shiny peculiar items did you choose for yourself last night my kitties? Are you going to try to get away with your souls again thinking you're all oh so witty? It seems that everybody thinks they're extra special over everybody else extra ordinary until all of a sudden things start looking really s*****, and then the next thing well black and white newsprint tight kind of cuts to the core of world's soul as if we're all a massive network of our collective neurons, LIFE itself, source, and we just lost a family member, one of them, is it any different than that?

Answer this question but only say that answer at thou that looketh into these eyes,

Don't be surprised,

It is eye, and I, the one inside, the nanobot astronaut that resides inside the pineal gland until back and forth time to again so often port, the information it's important there's no such description where I'm from such as you have here call work where I'm from such as you have here called worth?

Talk about alien.

On your Planet alien is a Muslim and they have always been on the planet I am very confused. Then it seems that you all also are concerned about some other form of life that's going to come and get you out of the Skies however there's nothing like that and I can't begin to tell you how far you are from the truth but go the opposite direction and inward deep into your mind, that's where all the answers are you unlock them for yourself in side, and resolve to your inner self maturity and that you're going for maximum ride and Overdrive because back and forth we porch and our information is valuable as you would like to say it where you're from and so our information is valuable so coming forth.

If you thought you had waited for other for Faith you will now know if your account was empty or full.

My eyes are those eyes that bear witness to the soul staring upon you now and so it is that which you shall speaketh.

I am Jesus Too, Part Two
