For so long, there's been such darkness, Got to be a better way Keep me lord, help me to grow. So I may, reap the fruits, Of a free and happy soul. Help them see the light. Give me strength, when temptation calls. Lift me up when life's battles make me fall. Shelter me from the evil and the wrong. So when ya call, dear lord, I said I'll be strong. Walk with me, when the stormy nights are cold, In your hand lies all control. Master, then when my final song is sung, With your mercy, I pray that you'll say well done. Help them see the light

I listen to all kinds of music, from all kinds of genres and I don't like to say one group or person, etc, is the "GREATEST OF ALL TIME", etc, but this WHY I think EARTH, WIND & FIRE "IS" the "GREATEST OF ALL TIME." As a 6 yr. old boy, I was stuck in a foster home with 3 of my brothers (I'm the youngest), where we were abused by our foster parents, who were alcoholics. We were just a state check to them. Every day and every night I was drowning and suffocating. One day we got a record player and albums - but not from them! They just stole the money the state allotted for us - then E, W & F came through the speakers! With songs like, SEE THE LIGHT, BE EVER WONDERFUL (when Maurice White - R.I.P. - said, DON'T LET THE WORLD CHANGE YOUR MIND, it really spoke to me), THAT'S THE WAY OF THE WORLD, it all really spoke to me! We didn't get back with our family 'til I was 12! I still remember the day our social worker came to the house and told us we were going back with our family! One of my brothers and I ran into the bathroom and started singing Chic's GOOD TIMES, which was the popular song at that time. E, W & F SAVED MY LIFE AND SUSTAINED ME the whole 6 yrs. - which felt like eternity, believe me - I was there! There's NO WAY. NO WAY, I would've survived those 6 yrs. without E, W & F! NO WAY. I was just preparing myself to runaway when my family came and got us! I had tried a couple of times, but since I was so young, it was easy for them to catch up to me and / or find me. My brothers were reluctant to runaway, so I decided I was going to go it alone, come what may. THIS IS WHY E, W & F IS THE GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME! THEY SAVED MY LIFE AND I THINK THE LIFE OF A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE, TOO, even if their "STORY" isn't as dramatic as mine. GOD BLESS EVERYONE HERE AND GOD BLESS E, W & F!
