My Song...

Every few months, a song comes out on the radio that just embodies a memory or an emotion for all of us. Sometimes it feels like the song writer channeled you and your specific situation. Every now and again though, there is a song that transcends the petty daily emotions we all go through and embodies the entire package that is you. I don’t think it happens that often, because I can only think of less than 5 songs that this sensation has occurred for me personally. One song in particular… every word, every note, it feels like I wrote this song to explain myself to others. If I could have a life thus far anthem, it would be this song. I got the lyrics and pasted them below. I want you to see me verse by verse. The scary part is that I am not only in one verse… it’s every word. Sometimes, I worry that I am working towards a goal that will never let me see the best parts of me. I always feel like I am given a new chance at life every day I wake up. I still believe I will marry a king even if I don’t believe in the constitution of marriage. And I know that people live in their own personal fantasies unwilling to and not ready to accept the reality that life is what you make it. However, like Lola, I am working on it.

Lola: I can't Take It 

I woke up early and it was a sunny day 
Soon as I went outside that's when it started raining 
Rushed and got in my car pull out my driveway and on my way to work 
Got stuck in two hour traffic. 

And I can't Lie 
Seems like the more I try 
The more I realize 
That I might not never see the best of me 
But I can't cry 
cause hey im still alive still got a chance at life 
Just wanna be happy 
But the facts remaining. 

Wanna go off everytime something goes wrong 
Cause I can't take it 
Tell me is it me or is it this society 
Cause I can't Take it 
When I look around wanna scream out hit the ground 
Cause I can't take it 
But Im But Im But Im 
Im Working on it, Working on it. 

I want so many things 
When I was young I dreamed , that I'd marry a king 
My daddy called me princess 
But in reality those things will never be 
Ain't no celebrity, but won't catch me complaining 

And I can't Lie 
Seems like the more I try 
The more I realize 
That I might not never see the best of me 
But I can't cry 
cause hey im still alive still got a chance at life 
Just wanna be happy 
But the facts remaining. 

Wanna go off everytime something goes wrong 
Cause I can't take it 
Tell me is it me or is it this society 
Cause I can't Take it 
When I look around wanna scream out hit the ground 
Cause I can't take it 
But Im But Im But Im 
Im Working on it, Working on it. 

Most people live, inside their fantasies 
Don't wanna see the truth,(they don't wanna see the truth) but life is what you make it 
And they'll do anything to even up the score 
Just trying to get a little bit more, Just trying to get a little bit more 

So only Trust yourself, and do what works for you 
Listen to no one else, 
I bet you you'll be happy 
So don't you hesitate, aint got no time to waist 
Just trying to get a little bit more, Just trying to get a little bit more 

Wanna go off everytime something goes wrong 
Cause I can't take it 
Tell me is it me or is it this society 
Cause I can't Take it 
When I look around wanna scream out hit the ground 
Cause I can't take it 
But Im But Im But Im 
Im Working on it, Working on it. 

And they'll do anything 
THING THING THING THING 
Just trying to get a little bit more 
Just Trying to get a little bit more 
And They'll Do anything 
THING THING THING THING 
Oh 
Oh yeah

Just trying to get a little bit more


What’s the song that embodies you? Think about it, maybe you haven’t found it yet or maybe you didn’t know it was your song








SCORPION

I woke up many times this weekend not knowing if it was day or night outside. I secluded myself after having a burst of too much emotion. On...
