In the 90's this music made me feel really changing the world could happen if all of us had even the slightest portion of righteous anger that RATM song's like this one could inspire.

Then 10 years later I still hoped that it would, then another 10 went by after that and i saw a world that had just given up.

Then I realized the world today is unwilling to fight for itself, and will continue to get ran over willingly if they can afford to distract themselves with an iphone and barely pay for a car much less rent or mortgage if any of it...

Im so tired of seeing the opportunity this kind of music gave us to aspire to, to rally to, to just completely losing the name of action.

I remember hearing Bulls on Parade for the first time. It gave me so much passion and a feeling of wanting to go out on the streets to protest.

Many years has passed and I realized that so many humans have had a variety of experiences in history based on wealth. When you make many attempts to get through Wealth Shown to Scale, then you can begin to process what's really going on here.

It's not easy but it is liberating in the end. Years ago, I accepted to just celebrate and enjoy life the best that I can while sharing that with as many people as possible.
