(#1)
anyone who knows me and talks to me will tell you that i refer to people who have taught me things in my life. but the #1 teacher of things in my life that i hold on to and refer to is my momma. many people teach me things, not with words, but with actions and my mommy, encompasses both. so you will hear a lot about her. even though my family isnt the Huxtable’s, they sure have taught me a lot.
for the past week or so you hav noticed me posting a lot of videos of songs. well, i dunno if you’ve been listening to the words of the songs.
but my mommy taught me to listen to the words of the songs. she said we get caught up in the backround/ music and dont realize wat we’re listen to sometimes and then your letting that stuff infiltrate your mind and your heart. so, since then i’ve been vary careful to make sure that the music i listen to reflects me, because even if people dont kno me, they can hear the music coming from my house, car, or lips and kno wat i think, feel, believe, etc.
well, anyway, to my point. for this fact i hav some new songs to share. these songs speak to me and about some of my thoughts and feelings. so i hope you listen and enjoy.
Waiting on the World to Change
by: John Mayer
cd: Continuum
me and all my friends
we’re all misunderstood
they say we stand for nothing and
there’s no way we ever could
now we see everything that’s going wrong
with the world and those who lead it
we just feel like we don’t have the means
to rise above and beat it
so we keep waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
it’s hard to beat the system
when we’re standing at a distance
so we keep waiting
waiting on the world to change
now if we had the power
to bring our neighbors home from war
they would have never missed a Christmas
no more ribbons on their door
and when you trust your television
what you get is what you got
cause when they own the information, oh
they can bend it all they want
that’s why we’re waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
it’s not that we don’t care,
we just know that the fight ain’t fair
so we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
and we’re still waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
one day our generation
is gonna rule the population
so we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
we keep on waiting
waiting on the world to change
Imagine Me
by: Kirk Franklin
cd: Hero
Imagine me, loving what I see when the
Mirror looks at me ’cause I imagine me
In a place of no insecurities
And I’m finally happy cause
I imagine me
Letting go of all of the ones who hurt me
‘Cause they never did deserve me
Can you imagine me
Saying no to thoughts that try to control me
Remembering all you told me
Lord can You imagine me
Over what my mamma said
And healed from what my daddy did
And I wanna live and not read that page again
Chorus
Imagine me, being free
Trusting you totally
Finally I can…imagine me
I admit it was hard to see
You being in love with someone like me
But finally I can…imagine me
Being strong and not letting people break me down
You won’t get that joy this time around
Can you imagine me
In a world where nobody has to live afraid
Because of your love fears gone away
Lord, can You imagine me
Bridge
Letting go of my past
And glad I have another chance
And my heart will dance
‘Cause I don’t have to read that page again
Vamp
Gone, gone, it’s gone, all gone
Nobody Knows it But Me
by: Tony Rich Project
cd:
I pretend that I’m glad you went away
These four walls closin’ more every day
and I’m dying inside
and nobody knows it but me
like a clown I put on a show
The pain is real even if nobody knows
and I’m cryin’ inside
and nobody knows it but me
Why didn’t I say
the things I needed to say
How could I let my angel get away
Now my world is just a tumblin’ down
I can say it so clearly
but you’re nowhere around
chorus
The nights are lonely, the days are so sad
and I just keep thikin’ ’bout the love that we had
and I’m missin’ you
and nobody knows it but me
I carry a smile when I’m broken in two
and I’m nobody without someone like you
I’m tremblin’ inside and nobody knows it but me
I lie awake it’s a quarter past three
I’m screamin’ at night as if I thought
you’d hear me
Yeah my heart is callin’ you
and nobody knows it but me
How blue can I get
You could ask my heart
but like a jigsaw puzzle it’s been torn
all apart
A million words wouldn’t say just how
I feel
A million years from now ya know
I’ll be lovin’ you still
chorus
Tomorrow mornin’ I’m hittin’ the
dusty road
gonna find you whereever, ever you
might go
I’m gonna unload my heart and hope
you come back to me
said when the nights are lonely…
chorus
last one for the day… sorry they never made a video for this song.
Beauty
by: Dru Hill
cd:
Sorry didnt notice you there
But then again you didnt notice me
So well remain passers by
Until the next time we speak
I hope that I can make you mine
For another man steals
your heart
And once your beauty is mine
I swear we will never be apart
Walks by me every day
Her and love are the same
The woman thats stolen my heart
And beauty is her name
Im hoping I can make you mine
For another man steals your heart
And once your beauty is mine
I swear we will never be apart
It didnt take much time to think about
But I didnt want to move too fast
Cuz I knew that when I saw you again
That I wouldnt wanna let you pass
Cuz my eyes have seen the glory
In the coming of your smile
So I swear if you ever come round again
Please stay for a while
Walks by me every day
Her and love are the same
The woman thats stolen my heart
And beauty is her name
Im hoping I can make you mine
For another man steals your heart
And once this beauty is mine
I swear that well never be apart
You are so beautiful
When Im down and out
I never seem to get tired
Tired of your love
Cuz you are wonderful
Youre wonderful
Im just dying to make you see
Anything you want inside your heart
You can find right here inside of me
Walks by me every day
Her and love are the same
The woman thats stolen my heart
And beauty is her name
Im hoping I can make you mine
For another man steals your heart
And once this beauty is mine
I swear we will never be apart
Walks by me every day
Her and love are the same
The woman thats stolen my heart
And beauty is her name
Im hoping I can make you mine
For another man steals your heart
And once this beauty is mine
I swear we will never be apart
Walks by me every day
Her and love are the same
The woman thats stolen my heart
And beauty is her name
Until Next Time…
