Aid
In international relations, aid (also known as international aid, overseas aid, foreign aid or foreign assistance) is – from the perspective of governments – a voluntary transfer of resources from one country to another.
Aid may serve one or more functions: it may be given as a signal of diplomatic approval, or to strengthen a military ally, to reward a government for behaviour desired by the donor, to extend the donor's cultural influence, to provide infrastructure needed by the donor for resource extraction from the recipient country, or to gain other kinds of commercial access. Humanitarian and altruistic purposes are at least partly responsible for the giving of aid.
Aid may be given by individuals, private organizations, or governments. Standards delimiting exactly the types of transfers considered "aid" vary from country to country. For example, the United States government discontinued the reporting of military aid as part of its foreign aid figures in 1958. The most widely used measure of aid is "Official Development Assistance" (ODA).

Face Of The Holy
by: Odd CrewA story written
A story bought
The words well fitted
The story sold
A broken gospel, a preacher sick,
Obedience to a perverted myth
A reason holy, a divine will
An absolution gained through blood spill
Doctrinisation of impudence and hypocrisy
Free misconception of slavery
Writing the story, the ink had been switched with blood
Kneel for the slaughter of reason as it will come
With the face of the HOLY
Righteous to heaven, sinners to hell
Donation cashed to grant the holy bail
The sainted soldier, the martyr blessed
The haze of words to lead the ignorant
Forgive me father for I've sinned in seeing your
bigotry
I praise your HOLY insolency
Writing the story, the ink had been switched with blood
Kneel for the slaughter of reason as it will come
With the face of the HOLY
For this is the meaning - until it takes hold
For this will take hold- until we revolt
For this is the meaning - until it takes hold
For this will take hold- till we revolt
The holy savior, a sinking ship
The acid flood of bullshit cuts the rig
Just bend few of the rules as needed when the psalms
don't fit
Then robe all freedom until we bleed
Writing the story, the ink had been switched with blood
Kneel for the slaughter of reason as it will come
