Rally kicked major ass.

Period.

Edgewood completely blew me away. I was a little concerned coming into the rally but I had no need to be. It was awesome.

It was an interesting rally for me. A lot of my friends who I usually hang out with weren't there. In fact, the only Cabinet members who were there were the regis and Kathryn. Even though I missed those wonderful people immensly, I got to know some really awesome people too. Katie and Cassie, twins from the Edgewood chapter, were the two people that I hung out the most with. They did a lot of the rally planning and it was only their second rally!!!!!!!!!! So, so amazing. I am very grateful to have met them.

I connected with a lot of Dallas people as well as a girl named Stephanie from the South Austin Chapter. I was feeling very alone on the way back, just from a lot of stuff that has happened in the past couple weeks and the fact that I was amazingly tired, and then there she was. We had a good four hour conversation and I ended up falling asleep sitting on her lap with my head on her shoulder. Very, very nice.

Oh, and I've realized that I hate men. Not man or a male person individually. Men, together, in general, are assholes. Long story that involves a soccer game, my skin tight goal pants and assholes standing behind me for a full forty minutes. Damn boys.

Where Is The Love?
Black Eyed Peas

People killin' people dyin'
Children hurtun' hear them cryin' Can you practice what you preach
Or would you turn the other cheek
FATHER FATHER FATHER help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cuz people got me got me questionin'
Where is the love (where is the love)


What's wrong with the world mama
People livin' like ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring ya trauma
Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists hea livin' in the USA
The big CIA, the Blood to the Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for ya own race
Then ya only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when ya hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah
Badness is what ya demonstrate and that's exactly how ANGER works and Operates
Nig, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love y'all, y'all

Chorus:

People killin' people dyin'
Children hurt, ain't even cryin'
Would you practice what you preach
Or would you turn the other cheek
FATHER FATHER FATHER help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cuz people got me got me questionin'
Where is the love (where is the love)
Where is the love
Where is the love, the love, the love

It just ain't the same, always unchanged
New days are strange, is the world insane
If love and peace is so strong
Why are these pieces of love that don't belong
Nations droppin' bombs
Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones
With the ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young
So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone
So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong
In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin' in
Makin' wrong decisions only visions of them dividends
Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin' on but the reason's undercova
The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth then you never know love
Where's the love y'all come on (I don't know)
Where's the truth y'all come on (I don't know)
Where's the love y'all

Repeat Chrous

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm getting olda, y'all people gets colda
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' our own direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema
Yo, whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality
Instead of spreading love we spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive 'til love is found


Repeat Chorus til fade
