I wish that you could see the pain that I've seen and
All of the time I spent being not me and
I hope you know it's not always happy
In my head

'Cause I don't know
The perfect road to go down
But I know
I'm trying my best
I'm trying my best to be okay
I'm trying my best but every day
It's so hard
And I'm holding my breath
I'm holding my breath 'til I can say
All of the words I wanna say
From my heart

I've been hurt in the past
I've been hurt in the present
The smile on my face ain't the feelings represented in my head
Oh I'm sorry I'm alive
I been wishing I was dead from a very young age
So tell me how you feel
Well I'm feeling just fine
That's a lie that I been telling my entire fucking life

Still tryna get to you
In hopes you're on the other side talking to me too
Or am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon?

I know you're somewhere out there
Somewhere far away


Never heard of whoever originally wrote or sung this, but only recently was I introduced to it, and for some reason I love it, and today it turned up again in something I was listening to. The singer I've heard is some kid named Emma on YouTube, and she does an excellent job (Adrian and Emma-Jean Music, if you're interested).

Anyway, it's been rattling round my head for a while now.

Broken hearts everywhere
From stepping on love we don't care
Somebody tell me what we gonna do

Even though its plenty to share
People still going hungry it ain't fair
But you don't think about it, until it's you...

Just look around the whole wide world
So many beautiful things to see
Take my hand and come along
Spread some love with me


It's the answer to the questions in your mind

Love is the answer

Is the answer, if you're looking, you will find

Love is the answer

It's the only thing that makes us truly free...

I'll say it again

The answer is...

Love.

My Guardian Angel by Robat Arwyn

Sometimes I feel
The world is unforgiving
A daily battle
Just to go on living
But when all hope is fading
An angel there descending
And dawn is breaking full of hope once more


This is such a beautiful encapsulation of, well, everything! I'm quite an optimistic person naturally but sometimes can get a bit down. The dawn is very hopeful too - a new day, with new hours to use. I noticed this really when I was transcribing the lyrics (I noticed they weren't available online and I wanted them) since the singer sings very clearly and it was easy to hear and it hit me like a sledgehammer, I don't know. Anyway, those are my lyrics for the week.

You'd think I'd despise you

But in the end, I wanna thank you

'Cause you made me that much stronger

Might be the best feature on Donda//one of the best verses this year

Quote from: Jay Electronica
Uh-huh, in the name of the true and living God, the beneficent, the merciful
Thank you for bringing me up the rough side of the mountain like Ertuğrul
Every knee bowed and every tongue confessed and paid homage
To the monk who visited Rothschilds like Thelonious did Pannonica
It's Jay Elec-entendre-nica comin' through your monitor
Back from the great beyond like the Son of Man or the Son of Donda?
I never rolled the GSXR or the R6 or the Honda
But I flew my Ducati through North America like Wakanda
Earthquakes will strike this nation for what Bush did to Rwanda
What the Clintons did to Haiti and Downing Street did to Ghana
In Tenochtitlan, they call me Terremoto, El Negro Loco
I shake the tectonic plates of the game if I lay one vocal
The God is interstellar while you fellas remain local
My bars is like the pyramid temples of Pacal Votan
As sure as the DOJ confirmed Ezekiel's Wheel
I could change the world like Yacub with two pieces of steel
My sword and my microphone, I swore to the Christ's throne
But when you great, they wanna say you took a L, José Castille
I'm in the fight here, fight here for what seemed like lightyears
My rugged cross and thorny crowns squeeze out Christ tears
Thirty pieces of silver clout, my Pierre price tier
It's a war outside, it's a war outside
It's like the last days of Sodom and Gomorrah outside

You went away, you went away, ay
You never said anything, ay
You left it all, everything, ay
Now I don't feel anything, ay
It's hard to say, but you were my everything
Honestly, you were the last good dream

Yes there's a lot we can
We can learn from this loss
Learn not to let it fall around our ears
Don't fall in love with the, with the way things were
It'll fuck up your mind, it'll fuck up your mind

Don't give in
Don't you dare quit so easy
Give all that you got on the sword
Don't say that you won't live forever
I know, I know

Maybe I'm crazy
Yeah, a little naive
But the light at the end is brighter than it used to be
Got a long way to go
But I know, I believe
That the light at the end is brighter than it used to be

And if you want to be free,
I can't be the one to make you believe.
You've still got this promise to keep.
Step back and wash away the reckless intentions.
They're leaving me breathless.
Find a way to stay in your skin.

This song really tells me I just need to breathe and step back sometimes, and that I have to stay accountable to what I do.

If all of the kings had their queens on the throne
We would pop champagne and raise a toast
To all of the queens who are fighting alone
Baby, you're not dancin' on your own

Run, running back, tell 'em where I'm coming at

I was on that bullshit, and now I'm done with that

Scared of what I didn't want, scared of what I wanted at

Thought that I was finished, but I hardly had begun in fact

I'ma beast, I'ma monster, a savage

And any other metaphor, the culture can imagine

And I gotta caption for anybody asking

That is I'm feeling fucking fantastic
