Lyrics: "LIST OF DEMANDS" by SAUL WILLIAMS

I want my money back
I'm down here drowning in your fat
You got me on my knees praying for everything you lack
I ain't afraid of you
I'm just a victim of your fears
You cower in your tower praying that I'll disappear,
I got another plan, one that requires me to stand
On the stage or in the street, don't need no microphone or beat
And when you hear this song, if you ain't dead then sing along
Bang and strum to these here drums til you get where you belong

I got a list of demands
written on the palm of my hands
I ball my fist and you're gonna know where I stand
We're living hand to mouth
You wanna be somebody?
See somebody? Try and free somebody?

I got a list of demands
written on the palm of my hands
I ball my fist and you're gonna know where I stand
We're living hand to mouth Hand to mouth

Do you understand the difference?

If I could...

The ChildFund Alliance asked children around the world the questions below. I would like to find out your answers.

1.If you were the president/prime minister of your country, what is the one thing you would do to improve the lives of the children in your community?

2.If you could grow up to be anything you wanted, what would you be?

3.If you could spend a day doing anything you wanted, what would you do?

Once you’ve answered the questions, read this news report on the findings of this survey and compare your answers to what other children around the world had to say.

Remembrance Day/Poppy Day

November is the time of the year when Britain wears a red poppy in memory of those who sacrificed their lives for them during wars.

The eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month marks the signing of the Armistice, on 11th November 1918, to signal the end of World War One.

At 11 am on 11 November 1918 the guns of the Western Front fell silent after more than four years continuous warfare.

Remembrance Day is on 11 November. It is a special day set aside to remember all those men and women who were killed during the two World Wars and other conflicts. At one time the day was known as Armistice Day and was renamed Remembrance Day after the Second World War.

Remembrance Sunday is held on the second Sunday in November, which is usually the Sunday nearest to 11 November. Special services are held at war memorials and churches all over Britain.

A war memorial in Sevenoaks Kent


Remembrance Day is also known as Poppy Day, because it is traditional to wear an artificial poppy. They are sold by the Royal British Legion, a charity dedicated to helping war veterans.

A poem called 'For the Fallen' is often read aloud during the ceremony; the most famous stanza of which reads:

"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them."

Fourth stanza of 'For the Fallen' by Laurence Binyon (1869 - 1943)

Why is the poppy a symbol of remembrance?

Sobre o concurso

O Grande © é um projecto promovido pela AGECOP – Associação para a Gestão da Cópia Privada, dirigido às escolas do Ensino Secundário e 3º Ciclo. Este projecto tem como principal objectivo a educação, sensibilização e literacia do público mais jovem no que respeita ao Direito de Autor e aos Direitos Conexos. Pretende mobilizar os jovens através das suas escolas em torno de um tema que lhes diz directamente respeito – a protecção da propriedade intelectual – promovendo mudanças de comportamento no que se refere a esta temática.
A abordagem destes temas é feita através de um concurso de criatividade, que lança aos jovens o desafio de criarem uma obra. Pretende incutir o valor da criatividade e da obra original, que é a base e o fundamento do Direito de Autor e dos Direitos Conexos.
Os jovens criadores terão assim oportunidade de desenvolver obras originais (inéditas), individualmente ou em grupo (podendo contar com a participação de um ou mais professores) em diferentes áreas de criação, tendo por base a importância do Direito de Autor e dos Direitos Conexos.

Human Rights Day: 10th December

Lyrics

If U-N-I-T-E-D, the world would be a better place.
As ink pours from pen, pain pours from my heart
Knowing there’s kids somewhere that actually starve.
Take the time out, close your eyes and just picture this;
No color, no hate, nemesis, or differences.
TV is filling me with scenes of negativity
But we can control it if we can cooperate willingly,
We came a long way, but we got so much further to go.
Guns kill, but hatred destroys us the most.
And the problem could never be solved you see,
Human Rights, define the word — EQUALITY
If we don’t respect and love each other, we’re just livin’ a lie
Because UNITED starts with you and I
You feel me?

Chorus:

U-N-I-T-E-D
A better place this world would be
We’re all in this game, can’t you see?
We’re all a part of this family tree

Chorus repeats

Lai Lai’s Rap
Lai Lai

We are born free and equal
Free to walk
And free to talk
Free to dance
Free to jump and free to prance.
Know what I’m sayin’?
Got to keep it together
No matter how bad the weather
It will be alright
Keep it tight
’cause we all got our freedom rights
Every day from the night
To the broad daylight
Don’t discriminate
Learn to appreciate
So you don’t hafta imitate
Don’t be the one to hate
It’s never too late
You got the right to life
Innocent ’til proven guilty
You can say what you like
You got the right to education
So don’t throw it away
Know your human rights
’cause it could help you some day
