She’s a single mother with a very low income			
He’s an eight year old who knows there’s nothing that he’s done
To be torn from his mother, his sisters and his brother
It’s the only life he knew and he loved it like not other

But you don’t give up, you don’t give up, you don’t give up, or give in
You know; you don’t give up, you don’t give up, you don’t give up, or give in

We’re always thinking of you Aaron, you’re always on our mind
We know your lonely, you know we love you all the time
How can some strangers say what’s good for you or I
There’s one who knows best, look in the child’s eye

The world is crumbling round me, its in a dizzy spin
With all I see and hear, my heart is full and breaking
I could end up on a mountain top or in a deep prison
But I know I never, never give up or give in

But we won't give up, we won't give up, we won't give up, or give in
You know; we won't give up, we won't give up, we won't give up, or give in

Don't Give Up

I was knocked out when Jimmy offered this beautiful song to me to sing, but then it took me 3 months to build up the confidence and to practice it. Jimmy is one of my favourite singers on SC (or anywhere) and he makes everything sound easy as he is so professional, so I hope you don't mind my take on this. Thank you Jimmy for sharing your skills with me.

You complete me
no matter how I feel
even with my nerves of steel
when the day is done
I know something good has begun
you complete me
when the day is warm
and the blue skies form
we sail on a following sea
far away from big pine key

You Complete Me - J.Rivas & Mark J Bennett

Ptolemaic System

World is sick !  Everything becomes a battlefield ... on a paradise ! Violence and disrespect everywhere, for everything... in the street, at school, in hospitals, in stadiums, on the road, at borders, on TV, in the cinema, against people nature and the planet... Stop ! There is no planet B. On its ruins, we can play the horn, no one will come !

Wonderful Sight

A side track suddenly popped into my head. It's something that happens to me sometimes. And I tried to catch it, because an hour later it probably wasn't there anymore.

I sent it to our dear poet/lyricist Peter, and it only took a couple of hours for an absolutely wonderful lyrical interpretation to be in my box.
Peter explained that this song's name was "Gaza" and I understood where we were going. A heartfelt thank you my friend, for your brilliant creations with your poetic vein.

To Gaza, with Love to all

Pray, which good God has cast this spell?
In dusty lands of diverse brilliant ancient provenance
Where peoples cherish but the solitary aim to dispatch to hell
Their neighbouring humanity through inculcated intolerance.
And this from such a tiny, precious space where all do share a common Abraham
The self same place where culture, morals and philosophy first graced the mind of modern man.

What peace can be, powered by the craving of decimation
Where love lies cowered from the social suffocation
Of him next door plus wife and child
The moral floor of passions wild 
With centuries of sparkling seasoned hate
Stoked brightly by the not so holy operatives of Judaism and the Caliphate. 

And so, my middle Eastern brothers, kindly answer this
When you leave this world, for the other and your promised eternal bliss
And as you call your God to realise Allah and Yahweh are one and the same
Will you call in the crushing tanks and play the heavenly occupation game
And will you, conversely, greet your neighbour with rocks and flaming molotovs
Send him on his hellbound way with mobile phone suicide bombs and spitting kalashnikovs?
