B.Y.O.B - System of a Down

BYOB is a song that was done by System of a Down that is a song about war and how it has been in a way made to seem not bad as it was back in old days. Lyrics/Video
This song can be interpeted as a way of how lightly people take war and how down played it has become. For example when the lyrics go,"Marching forward hypocritic And hypnotic computers.You depend on our protection,Yet you feed us lies from the table cloth."
Then it goes, "everybody's going to the party to have a good time dancing in the desert the desert blowing up the sunshine" which is saying that while everyone is having a good time there are people that are being trained to obey every order and that no one cares about it yet they depend on them. Then it says "why don't presidents fight the war why do we always send the poor?" this show that how presedents all they do is start the war and rid them-selves of any dirty work. Overall this is a very good song.

Caucasia After Thought

After finishing reading caucasia I thought alright this book was really bad. This only really made me take the view of someone who is half black and half white not just mostly black or mostly white. which makes it really tough to learn about racial things because its physically impossible for me a white person to expierence being half white and half black. Even there was a white person who was kind of a main character. That character was potrayed a stereo typical crazy white woman who is paranoid about everything yet this book is trying to teach me about racism and stereo types of others. So it was just a terrible book and left me going "okay and your point is what exaclty?"

I Just Want You

I Just Want You - Ozzy Osbourne
Lyrics

This song is a very soft song comparing it to what else I listen to but it is still good maybe one of the best by Ozzy. Through the majority it goes like

There are no unlockable doors
There are no unwinable wars
There are no unrightable wrongs
Or unsignable songs

There are no unbeatable odds
There are no believable gods
There are no unnameable names
Shall I say it again, yeah

This song is like a big inspirational speech because he says there are no unwinible wars which is true because you can change the tide of battle with just one event. When he says "there are no believievable gods" this is very true because all of the gods that people believe in there is no prove that they could do the things that they said even though they existed as a real person because after all the only history we learn is what the historian choose to put in the books. This song just counters everything that some people believe so blindly and just accept it without question.

Toxicity

Toxicity is a song by System of a down when Serj Tankin was still in their band.
Lyrics

This song is talking about how just chaotic and confused as a society we have become. This becomes clear when he starts saying "Conversion, software version 7.0" mean that we are upgrading to what is needed in order to keep up with the times. The song also says that we have become people who have become obsessed with being skinny by saying the "Eating seeds as a pastime activity". That points out that there is now a sense of people not eating just to be beautiful. Then he goes on saying that people want to own the own world but then say why would you want to own disorder. He says Sacred Silence in this song not just silence because he wants to make clear that it so hard to get silence in this day and age and sometimes that's what some people need but it's just so hard to obtain and the only time you get it is in your sleep. But this song overall is just about the Toxicity or corruption on people just by time moving by.
