31 years later

Today, 31 years ago, Mark David Chapman, shot John Lennon near his home in New York. He thought he would gain his fame. He thought john was a hypocrite. To sum it all up he though "oh why does john sing about peace and selflessness but yet have all of this money" The man was and still is insane. John was rushed to the hospital but was dead in arrival. Mark was found guilty and placed in jail for life and has been denied parole. At least 2 fans have killed themselves over this terrible event. Rest in peace John.



Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace

You, you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one


Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world

 you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will live as one
