RECOMMENDED READING FOR THE CONSCIOUS MIND.


Peace everbody, it's your main man OUTTHERE coming through with something a little different. Below are the lyrics to my song titled Prisoners of War. The song speaks to being captive as civilians to policies related to the war and the effects of them where we live.

What i am trying to do is to provide links to information related to my lyrics. Hopefully this will add some understanding to my words and maybe inspire people to do a little digging for themselves.

My point of view is exactly that, a point of view. My song only lightly touches any of what i'm talking about, so i thought it was necessary to give people a starting point to do the research that will allow you to draw an intelligent conclusion or point of view.

It doesn't matter if you agree with me, but it does matter that you take the time to find out for yourself.

I have linked to various video clips to make it easy to take in, but i'm sure some of the links could be better or more detailed, so if you have any suggestions for alternate links to the related info, please email them to me at info@katklaw.com For now listen to the song and feel free to email me your comments.

Mouse over lyrics to link to references in the song

They dont care about us. who? who in charge bring war upon us
young man with a dream and no funds, get deployed overseas to shoot guns

pop pop soldier in land we not from, shoot at young kids, they're mom and husband, use brown face, make case for more shots, fly planes like video games and bombs drop,

so cold, so low, you see them, pop the bad guy, when they done and dont need him thats historical fact you dont see when they act like them planes just crashed to hate freedom

they sit upon black gold land, while they make us fight operation black gold plan
we think bout threats and more horror, and they just gaming like its medal of honor

we only blips and dots, so just watch, how they build empire, while your son get shot. why not you want a better life but then if you make it back you got that nightmare in your head

everytime we give a life for these traders, important men shuffling pawns for more paper we give'm power to strip the whole dream, and to sell it back in pieces for more green


We are prisoners of war
we're become unknown soldiers
we'eve been listed MIA
fighting for the USA


that war cost more then a body, like a son, like a dad, like a mommy,
like a home, like the future of your family, like your soul, like a trip to insanity,

wonderland, full of patriot games, and under class get the bill and the pain,
you get an ear when they running for office, but they dont hear you when they taking those offers

to the dollar, yeah we bow and we pray, and every now and then we give god some due praise, no money for the schools when they need some, but no money too much for machine guns,

more money go to snatch what you speak of, illegal tap, illegal search, illegal reason boogieman on your phone in your email, in the library where sally sell sea shells,


but you can feel safe in the mall, in a place where dont have to worry at all,
we're like reality proof, no handle, flip channels not in search of the truth

Depressed, but yes there's a pill, whatever you got you get like 20 refills,
now you dont have to feel a thing, but now you wont feel a thing


We are prisoners of war
we're become unknown soldiers
we'eve been listed MIA
fighting for the USA


how you give welfare to a boardroom, while a man lose his house in a courtroom,
while the boss play golf on the green, hoorah wave the flag pass the m-16

flatline hope lies in the gutter, he like the doe for guns but not butter he like stripping cash from grandmothers, he like the prison cell for young brothers

theres gangster mob in economics, for free trade, they'll invade a small province

and the mission coming outta your pockets, but when the chicken hawk war cries, we patriotic?

and what they call a war it's just murder, it aint defense at all, it's a merger,
a takeover hostile troops, B & E home invasion, for a lie they shoot,

gotta gang in every city with a badge
, and world wide you see them rockin that flag, open your eyes, I know you not believin them lies

damn right for the cause got beef, i got a few sons that a war will not see
bad man, dont represent me, long as he dont want it, i wont let him have peace



We are prisoners of war
we're become unknown soldiers
we'eve been listed MIA
fighting for the USA

Below is a playlist of various video clips from youtube that speak to certain issues.
It's not to insult anyone's intelligence, most of us prefer video to take in information.
i have reccomendations on books and articles, but I thought this would be the best
way to ease into the topics as described in these video clips.
