If you could walk a mile in my shoes
In the footprints left behind
I think you'd be amazed at all the love you'd come to find
The way I feel about you wouldn't be surprising news
If you could walk a mile in my shoes

If you could walk a mile in my shoes
In the tracks that I have laid
You'd come across some hard times and mistakes that I have made
You'd see you've been my sunshine and my shelter from the blues
If you could walk a mile in my shoes

If you could walk a mile in my shoes
In the footprints left today
You'd see me coming home to you so I can finally say

If you could walk a mile in my shoes
You'd feel blessed from up above
To have you in my life and feel the comfort of your love
You'd know that you're the one thing that I never want to lose
If you could walk a mile in my shoes

If you could walk a mile in my shoes

Father you're the sunshine on a day that hasn't dawned
I hope to reunite with you in paradise beyond
Meet me at the gates because to you I'm gonna run
I thank the good Lord everyday that he made me your son

I thank the good Lord everyday that he made you my dad
And for the love I shared with you and all the times we've had
Meet me with those blue eyes on that unknown future date
And welcome me with open arms inside of Heavens Gate

Welcome me with open arms because I've missed you so
And off into eternity we'll journey off and go
Into a land of happiness where heartache isn't known
Into a place of comfort where I'll never be alone

Father you're the sunshine on a day that hasn't dawned
I hope to reunite with you in paradise beyond
Meet me at the gates because to you I'm gonna run
I thank the good Lord everyday that he made me your son

I thank the good Lord everyday that he made you my dad
And for the love I shared with you and all the times we've had
Meet me with those blue eyes on that unknown future date
And welcome me with open arms inside of Heavens Gate

For You Dad !!

No more cuts and bruises now
The wounds are more severe
It's a kind of pain that's never silenced by a tear
It's not like in your childhood when you fall and skin your knee
Cause they don't make a band aid for a wound that you can't see

They don't make a band aid for a wound you have inside
When doctors came into the room and told us you had died
Without you I'm not sure how to keep on being me
Cause they don't make a band aid for a wound that you can't see

No more cuts and bruises now
Cause it's a brand new day
There's just a lasting ache that never fades or goes away
I know that you're still with me but it doesn't ease the pain
Every life has sunshine and a healthy dose of rain

No more cuts and bruises now
The wounds are more severe
It's a kind of pain that's never silenced by a tear
It's not like in your childhood when you fall and skin your knee
Cause they don't make a band aid for a wound that you can't see

Dedicated to my Dad !!
God bless you and hope to reunite with you one day in paradise !!

Sorry to those of you who I've not been in contact with for some time. I've been busy and really haven't been to the site to check things for quite a while. Please know I haven't forgot about my good friends here and I will get back to you when time permits. In the meantime check out the first new piece of writing I've done in quite a while that's located in the blog below this one! It's called Defiance!

Thanks,
Jeff

I won't take your orders
I won't learn to fall in line
You can't run your own life
Now you wanna control mine

I stand in Defiance
I don't stand behind your cause
I despise your guidelines
And I don't respect your laws

I've never been your robot
I'm not marching to your drum
You got a taste of power
And now look what you've become

But I stand in Defiance
Of most all that you proclaim
Right and wrong were different
Til you made them both the same

And I stand in Defiance
I stand diligent and bold
I stand in Defiance
No more doing what I'm told

Let me clear up your confusion
You're filled with such delusion
It hurts to hear those lying words
And things I never knew

Especially from you....

It hurts to know I trusted you with secrets from the heart
And now you want to hurt me cause you feel we've grown apart
When everything is ending with no chance to make it through
It's the last thing I expected ......

Especially from you....

You finally got the last words
But they're words I won't forget
We tried to solve the puzzle
But the pieces wouldn't fit

And harsh words entered in from somewhere straight of the blue
And I won't take the lies and all the insults that you threw

Especially from you...

It hurts to know I trusted you with secrets from the heart
And now you want to hurt me cause you feel we've grown apart
When everything is ending with no chance to make it through
It's the last thing I expected......

Especially from you....
Especially from you...

An old man walks the streets at night
He's looking for a fool
He acts so meek and tender
But he's arrogant and cruel

He's not what he appears to be
He's wicked and he's odd
He speaks in tongues of babel
And he doesn't serve his God

Persuasion is the mask he wears
He'll act like he's a friend
His purpose is to devastate
And see that you're condemned

His purpose is to lure you in
A fish hooked on the line
He hopes that you won't recognize
He's evil by design

He's been around forever
Old as all the grains of sand
He'll tell you what you want to hear
Then offer you his hand

Some think he's a fantasy
Some know he's for real
The old man has a secret
That to you he won't reveal

He'll tell that you're family
You'll wonder at his charms
The old man is a sly one
You're in the Devils arms

What happened to the forrest
To the squirrels and to the trees
More land for the wealthy
And industrial disease

The landscape was so beautiful
Especially in fall
Now the land is concrete
For another shopping mall

Don't you have enough
You need to take a little more
Every hundred feet
Another Wal-Mart megastore

I prefer the country
But there's hardly any left
You're stealing from the youth
You've been found guilty of the theft

All the gorgeous land
Became a filthy parking lot
Monuments to greed
Of what a rich man came and bought

Life for all you wealthy must be so extremely rough
Now you want it all because you can't destroy enough

She's taking off with some new guy
Don't know when and don't know why
What I have she's taking half
Should I cry or should I laugh

Taking half of all I've earned
Getting robbed and getting burned
Getting booted in the can
Should of stayed a single man

She's a woman mad as Hell
That's about all I can tell
Now my well is running dry
Taking her slice of the pie

Don't know how to feel or think
Guess I'll have another drink
Chug it down and have some more
Might as well be drunk and poor

She's taking off with some new guy
Don't know when and don't know why
What I have she's taking half
Should I cry or should I laugh

I never told you but I've tried
That he shouldn't be the one that's standing by your side
He'll never hold you close or love you like I can
You're to much woman for your man

You're to much woman for a child
So let me love you girl and let me drive you wild
He disrespects you and he treats you like his toy
You're to much woman for a boy

He really has a lot of nerve
He doesn't pamper you the way that you deserve
He'll never hold you close and love you like I can
You're to much woman for your man

You're to much woman for a child
So let me love you girl and let me drive you wild
He disrespects you and he treats you like his toy
You're to much woman for a boy

So let me make you feel the way you know I can
You're to much woman for your man

To the friends I haven't gotten back to yet I'll get in touch with you over the weekend and sorry for the delay in responding! Have a good weekend !

This clip below shows Rickson and Royler Gracie demonstrating some self defense and then sparring! This is a beautiful demonstration of Ju Jitsu where the sparring is intense but very controlled and methodical. Excellent video of Ju Jitsu so enjoy !!

I'm hungry for your special love
I'm starving for your touch
I've never wanted anyone
So badly and so much

I'm filled with pure desire
And I'm needing what I miss
I need to feel your fire
And the passion in your kiss

I need to feel the burning
As we rage out of control
I need to feel your body
And I need to feel your soul

So take me to another place
Until the nights complete
Fan the flames of passion
And consume me in the heat

I'm filled with pure desire
And I'm needing what I miss
I need to feel your fire
And the passion in your kiss

I don't mean to stare at you
But I can't look away
I'm at a loss for words
And I'm not sure just what to say

You turned in my direction
And my heart began to race
I knew you were an angel
As we stood there face to face

Your eyes were just like diamonds
I was lost inside their shine
And all that I could think
Is how I wished that you were mine

I wish I knew your destiny
I wish I knew Gods plan
But all I know for certain
Is I want to be your man

Yeah, all I know for certain
Is I want to be your man

He gets out of his limousine
Pours himself some scotch
Looks down to see what time it is
Upon his Rolex watch

He bought her diamond earrings
A brand new Fendi purse
He wrote a brand new poem
And he read her every verse

It told of how he loved her
It came right from the heart
He told her she was brilliant
Like a priceless work of art

He poured for her a glass of wine
Then he proposed a toast
For all his worldy treasures
She's the one he treasures most

I gotta sweet tooth baby
And I'm needin a treat
While I'm rubbin on your thighs
And I'm kissing your feet

I got a sweet tooth baby
Got a six and a nine
And it's just about the time
When those numbers combine

I got a sweet tooth baby
While you wiggle your hips
Curl your toes up tighter
While you lick on your lips

I got a sweet tooth baby
And i'm harder than stone
Rubbing lotion on your body
While I'm hearing you moan

I got a sweet tooth baby
And you're just like a dream
I got a sweet tooth baby
For some Peaches N' Cream

I don't want to hear your lame excuses
For all the things that you can't get set straight
For all the things I really like about you
That's something that I don't appreciate

All the things you've done have been you're doing
You chose for things to turn out in that way
It doesn't really matter how it happened
You made the bed you're lying in today

What's been done is done so stop you're talking
why rehash old plans that went astray
The only thing we really know for certain
Is you made the bed you're lying in today

You made the bed you're lying in for certain
It didn't happen randomly by chance
So why go through the same old tired story
And repeat all the same old song and dance

What's been done is done so stop you're talking
why rehash old plans that went astray
The only thing we really know for certain
Is you made the bed you're lying in today

You made the bed your lying in today

I'm just another soldier
Stomping in my boots
Doing all my duties
Training new recruits

Carrying a rifle
Carrying a wrench
Standing at attention
Digging out a trench

I'm just another soldier
Serving out a tour
Readying for chaos
Readying for war

I'm just another soldier
Tossing a grenade
Holding off an ambush
Going on a raid

I'm just another soldier
Laying here in wait
Setting all my traps up
Putting out the bait

I'm just another soldier
An officer of rank
Armored like a Hummer
Armored like a tank

I'm just another soldier
Standing at my post
Waiting for a signal
Quiet as a ghost

Putting on my helmut
Putting on my tags
Looking through my gunsight
Filling bodybags

I'm the cookie monster
I like my cookies tight
But you don't have to worry
I'm never known to bite

I don't want no peanuts
Or little chocolate chips
I only want the cookie
That's sweetest to my lips

I'll have a little nibble
I'll have a little taste
I love that little cookie
You have below the waist

I like em when they're single
I like em in a set
The cookie monsters coming
To make your cookie wet

I'm the one that's staying hungry
While you already ate
With a silver spoon in hand
From a golden dinner plate

I'm the one that's staying skinny
While you been getting fat
While your jelly belly's bulging
My stomachs staying flat

But my appetite is growing
I want my slice of pie
I'm getting kind of thirsty
My mouth is getting dry

Cause I'm calling for a table
That needs to be reserved
Playing like a game of tennis
And always getting served
