Daniela Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 Ana, or the rest of the mods, feel free to move the thread if it's in the wrong place.I need a small help.I have to do a homework about Human Rights. I am supposed to look for lyrics of several artist (most on them in my native language, spanish, which I've already found) that talk about Human Rights, songs against violence, racism, persecution and stuffs like that with Madonna and Eminem Songs.I've been looking for about 1 hours of Madonna's song, and Freedom is the one that's closer of being useful. But I'm not 100% percent sure.So I hope that any of you is able to help me.Thanks in advance. Quote
AnaBB Cover Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 It's in the right place. Madonna - "Love Makes The World Go Round" Make love not war we say It's easy to recite But it don't mean a damn Unless we're gonna fight But not with guns and knives We've got to save the lives Of every boy and girl That grows up in this world [Chorus:] There's hunger everywhere We've got to take a stand Reach out for someone's hand Love makes the world go round It's easy to forget If you don't hear the sound Of pain and prejudice Love makes the world go round They think that love's a lie But we can teach them how to try Love means to understand Reach out for someone's hand 'Cause everything you do Comes back in time to you We have to change our fate Before it gets too late [chorus] Don't judge a man 'til you've been standin' in his shoes You know that we're all so quick to look away 'Cause it's the easy thing to do You know that what I say is true Love makes the world go round... Make love not war we say It's easy to recite But it don't mean a damn Unless we're gonna fight [chorus] Quote

MattLoveModels Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 Eminem - White America (Prelude)America! We love you! How many people are proud to be citizens of this beautiful country of ours? The stripes and the stars for the rights that men have died for to protectThe women and men who have broke their necks for the freedom of speech the United States government has sworn to uphold. (Yo I want everybody to listen to the words of this song) or so we're told...Verse 1I never would've dreamed in a million years I'd see, so many motherfuckin' people who feel like mewho share the same views and the same exact beliefs, it's like a fuckin' army marchin' in back of meSo many lives I touch, so much anger aimed in no particular direction, just sprays and sprays and straight through your radio waves it plays and plays, till it stays stuck in your head for days and dayswho woulda thought, standing in this mirror bleachin' my hair, with some peroxide, reachin for a t-shirt to wearthat I would catapult to the forefront of rap like this? How could I predict my words would have an impact like thisI must've struck a chord, with somebody up in the office, cuz Congress keeps telling me I ain't causin' nuthin' but problemsand now they're sayin' I'm in trouble with the government, I'm lovin' it, I shoveled shit all my life/and now I'm dumping it on...White America!I could be one of your kidsWhite America!Little Eric looks just like thisWhite America!Erica loves my shitI go to TRL, look how many hugs I getVerse 2Look at these eyes, baby blue, baby just like yourself, if they were brown Shady lose, Shady sits on the shelfbut Shady's cute, Shady knew Shady's dimples would help, make ladies swoon baby, ooh baby! Look at my salesLets do the math, If I was black I would've sold half, I ain't have to graduate from Lincoln High School to know thatbut I could rap, so fuck school, I'm too cool to go back, gimme the mic, show me where the fuckin' studio's atWhen I was underground, no one gave a fuck I was white, no labels wanted to sign me almost gave up, I was likeFuck it, until I met Dre, the only one to look past, gave me a chance, and I lit a fire up under his asshelped him get back to the top, every fan black that I got was probably his in exchange for every white fan that he's gotLike damn, we just swapped. Sittin' back lookin' at shit, wow, I'm like my skin is it starting to work to my benefit now?Verse 3See the problem is I speak to suburban kids who otherwise would of never knew these words existwhose moms probably woulda never gave two squirts of piss, till I created so much motherfuckin' turbulencestraight out the tube, right into your living room I came, and kids flipped when they knew I was produced by DreThat's all it took, and they were instantly hooked right in, and they connected with me too because I looked like themthat's why they put my lyrics up under this microscope, searchin' with a fine tooth comb, its like this ropewaitin' to choke, tightening around my throat, watching me while I write this, like I don't like this (Nope)All I hear is: lyrics, lyrics, constant controversy, sponsors working round the clock, to try to stop my concerts earlysurely hip hop was never a problem in Harlem only in Boston, after it bothered the fathers of daughters starting to blossomso now I'm catchin' the flack from these activists when they raggin', actin' like I'm the first rapper to smack a bitch, or say faggotshit, just look at me like I'm your closest pal, the posterchild, the mother fuckin' spokesman now for...Verse 4So to the parents of AmericaI am the derringer aimed at little Erica, to attack her characterThe ringleader of this circus of worthless pawnsSent to lead the march right up to the steps of CongressAnd piss on the lawns of the White House and replace it with a Parental Advisory stickerTo spit liquor in the faces of in this democracy of hypocrisyFuck you Ms. Cheney! Fuck you Tipper Gore! Fuck you with the freest of speech this divided states of embarassment will allow me to have, Fuck you!
