"The Racist"
Edutainment
1990
I've been taught to respect my elders and behave
Even if when they were young they sold slaves
Truth and understandin' is what I crave
In the land of the thief, home of the slave
Turn your page to a brief demonstration
Cos now in '90 it's strictly information I'm givin'
Teachin' on a regular basis
Today's lecture is about The Racist
We're not out to exaggerate or diss him
But show the symptoms and facts of racism
Understand The Racist ain't equal
There's about five different types of racist people
First of the five different types of cases
Is the individual brought up racist
Here you have young men and women
Brought up in the Great White Way opinion
This opinion introduced by the parent
To the civilised becomes transparent
The civilised man could look through the faces
Make the analysis and see The Racist
Number two case which y'all must hear
Is the individual racist out of fear
Here you have people that fear the African
And conjure up new ways of trappin' him
Number three is the unconscious racist
Not knowin' they're racist they invade your spaces
They say, "I'm not a racist, I'm not a bigot"
Yet they allow it to go on and won't admit it
Number four is the money racist
The one that used the topics of sheer economics
They say, "Owning a business isn't for the black man
He don't want that", yet they went and took his land
Damn, that's like a rock in a hard place
You don't have your land yet this ain't your space
America was built by every other race
Except the European that runs this place
What a waste, America's doomed
To be overthrown by the righteous real soon
But last but not least racial prejudice
Is the black man speakin' out of ignorance
Whitey this and Ching-Chow that
Is not how the intelligent man acts
You can't blame the whole white race
For slavery, cos this ain't the case
A large sum of white people died with black
Tryin' hard to fight racial attacks
The media wants you to think that no whites
Really fought and died for Civil Rights
But once we have a true sense of history
You'll see this too as a mystery
If black and white didn't argue the most
They could clearly see the government's screwin' 'em both.
Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
The wind would whisper and I'd think of you
And all the tears you cried, that called my name
And when you needed me I came through I paint a picture of the days gone by
When love went blind and you would make me see
I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes
So that I knew you were there for me
Time after time you were there for me Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you We spend the summer with the top rolled down
Wished ever after would be like this
You said I love you babe, without a sound
I said I'd give my life for just one kiss
I'd live for your smile and die for your kiss Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you We've had our share of hard times
But that's the price we paid
And through it all we kept the promise that we made
I swear you'll never be lonely Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
Washed away a dream of you
But nothing else could ever take you away
'Cause you'll always be my dream come true
Oh my darling, I love you Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights and every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you Remember yesterday - walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights through every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I remember you
Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand - I Remember You
Through all the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say - I Remember
I REMEMBER YOU!
Skid Row- "I Remember You"
Queensryche- "Silent Lucidity"
Hush now, don't you cry.
Wipe away the teadrop from your eye.
You're lying safe in bed.
It was all a bad dream spinning in your head.
Your mind tricked you to feel the pain of someone close to you leaving the game of life.
So here it is, another chance.
Wide awake you face the day.
Your dream is over... or has it just begun?
There's a place I like to hide.
A doorway that I run through in the night.
Relax child, you were there but only didn't realize it and you were scared.
It's a place where you will learn to face your fears,
retrace the years and ride the whims of your mind.
Commanding in another world.
Suddenly, you hear and see this magic new dimension.
* I - will be watching over you
I - am gonna help you see it through.
I - will protect you in the night.
I - am smiling next to you...
... In Silent Lucidity
If you open your mind for me you won't rely on open eyes to see.
The walls you built within come tumbling down,
and a new world will begin.
Living twice at once you learn you're safe from pain in the dream domain.
A soul set free to fly, a round trip journey in your head.
Master of illusion,
can you realize your dream's alive,
you can be the guide but...
I - will be watching over you
I - am gonna help you see it through.
I - will protect you in the night.
I - am smiling next to you...
... In Silent Lucidity
Cheap Trick- "The Flame"
Another night slowly closes in,
And I feel so lonely.
Touching heat freezing on my skin,
I pretend you still hold me.
I�m going crazy, I�m losing sleep.
I�m in too far, I�m in way too deep over you.
I can�t believe you�re gone.
You were the first, you�ll be the last. Wherever you go, I�ll be with you.
Whatever you want, I�ll give it to you.
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
Remember: after the fire, after all the rain,
I will be the flame.
I will be the flame. Watching shadows move across the wall,
I feel so frightened.
I wanna run to you, I wanna call,
But I�ve been hit by lightening.
Just can�t stand up for fallin� apart.
Can�t see through this veil across my heart, over you.
You�ll always be the one.
You were the first, you�ll be the last. Wherever you go, I�ll be with you.
Whatever you want, I�ll give it to you.
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
Remember: after the fire, after all the rain,
I will be the flame.
I will be the flame. I�m going crazy, I�m losing sleep.
I�m in too far, I�m in way too deep over you.
You�ll always be the one.
You were the first, you�ll be the last. Wherever you go, I�ll be with you.
Whatever you want, I�ll give it to you.
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
Remember: after the fire, after all the rain,
I will be the flame.
I will be the flame. Whatever you want, I�ll give it to you.
Wherever you go, I�ll be with you.
And whatever you want, I�ll give it to you.
Slaughter- "Fly To The Angels"
Pictures of you
oh, theyre still on my mind
you had the smile
that could light up the world
now it rains
it seems the sun never shines
and I drive
down
this lonely lonely road
oooo I got this feelin'
girl I gotta let you go (Chorus)
'cause now youve got to fly
(fly high)
fly to the angels
heaven awaits your heart
and flowers bloom in your name
you've got to fly
(fly high)
fly to the angels
all the stars in the night
shine in your name
Though it hurts me
way deep inside
when I took a look
and found that you're not there
I tried to convince myself
, but the PAIN
the PAIN is still not gone
still I drive
down
this lonely lonely road
oo I got this feeling
girl I gotta let you go (repeat chorus) FLYYYY!!!
(musical interlude)
oo yeah
(musical interlude)
and still I drive
down
this lonely lonely road
oo I got this feelin'
oh
I can't let you go
BUT I KNOW that youve got to fly
(fly high)
fly to the angels
heaven awaits your heart
and flowers bloom in your name
you've gotta fly
(fly high)
fly to the angels
all the stars in the sky
SHINE IN YOUR NAME YEAH
OW!
oo--oo--oo (repeat)
I'm gonna miss you
gonna miss you girl
Led Zeppelin- "Stairway To Heaven" There's a lady who's sure
All that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven. There's a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
There's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder. There's a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder. And it's whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter. If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder. Your head is humming and it won't go
In case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind. And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll. And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
Would you know my name
if I saw you in heaven?
Would you feel the same
if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven... Would you hold my hand
if I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
if I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way through night and day
'Cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven...
Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees
Time can break your heart, have you begging please... Beyond the door there's peace I'm sure
And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven... Would you know my name
if I saw you in heaven?
Would you feel the same
if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on
'Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven...

Kenny Loggins- "Meet Me Halfway (Across The Sky)" In a lifetime
Made of memories
I believe
In destiny
Every moment returns again in time
When I've got the future on my mind
Know that you'll be the only one Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Up where the world belongs
to only you and I
Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Make this a new beginning of another life. In a lifetime
There is only love
Reaching for the lonely one
We are stronger when we are given love
When we put emotions on the line
Know that we are the timeless ones Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Out where the world belongs
to only you and I Meet me halfway
Across the sky
Make this a new beginning of another life.

Reviews
Poltergeist III (1988)
Heather O'Rourke is the greatest (her best acting, IMO)
Going in a different direction from the previous two movies in the series, this one took a few chances. The high-rise, mirrors, a new Kane(sad what happened to Julian Beck), etc. I loved this movie for those reasons. Not saying I didn't enjoy the other two because those were excellent, but it seemed like there wasn't anything in there to make them considered a horror movie except for the presence of ghosts with a little bit of suspense. "Poltergeist III" contained murder, suspense, tricky camera angles and most of all, the best acting I have ever seen from Heather O'Rourke. She was so adorable in her red pajamas and I truly believe she carried the movie with up to par performances by Skeritt, Allen, Rubenstein, Fire, Flynn Boyle and Wentz. Her presence on screen while watching this movie is so magnificent and very believable. When I was little, she was my first crush and I loved her, I only found out on 6-4-2005 that she passed away and it crushed me. I say this is the best of the series and I know I am the minority, but hey, to each his own. I realize the first movie is pretty much legendary for her famous line "They're Here", but I feel the acting here is better. The way they made the concept of the mirrors work is amazing and I thought it was a great attempt a something new. I gave this movie a 9/10 because of how much I enjoyed Heather O'Rourke's performance. Check it out.
