Click to listen.

It's a b, b, beautiful world we've been given
From the top of the sky to the ocean
I'll never understand it all
It must be supernatural

It's a m, m, magical thing a starry night
Feel, feel so small under a billion lights
I'll never understand it all
It must be supernatural

Amazing life
Amazing life

Flying higher than I've ever dreamed
From the top of the world I could scream

Amazing life
Amazing life

It's a colorful, colorful world painted so bright
Gonna walk on air gonna take flight
I'll never understand it all
It must be supernatural

I wanna drink, drink every drop of sunshine
Gotta smile on my face, I won't apologize

I'll never understand it all
Must be supernatural

Amazing life
Amazing life

Flying higher than I ever dreamed
From the top of the world I could scream

Amazing life
Amazing life

Your the burning in my heart that never dies
Without you here my world is black and white

Like a show without a stage
Like a storm without the rain

You're the one I can't replace
Need You by my side
Need You by my side

//Amazing life
Amazing life//

Amazing life
Amazing life

Flying higher than I've ever dreamed
From the top of the world I could scream

Amazing life
Amazing life

Socially Acceptable

"Socially Acceptable"

(It's okay, it's all right)

It's okay, it's alright
Yeah, here we go
dcT is in the house boy
It's okay, it's alright

Whatcha thinking, doing the things you do
Whose opinion are ya listening to?
Justifying, you turn it all to gray
Synchronizing to society's ways

Society has gotten to be all outta whack
And don't bother with excuses whether white or black
To blame it on a color won't get a result
Because history reveals to me how ethics were lost
In reality our decency has taken a plunge
"In God We Trust" is an American pun
Funny how it happened so suddenly
Hey yo fellas, kick the melody...

[chorus]
Socially acceptable, it's okay, it's all right
Socially acceptable, it's okay, to loose sight
Socially acceptable

Times are changing, when morals in decay
Human rights have made the wrong okay
Something's missing, and if you're asking me
I think that something is the G-O-D

To label wrong or right by the people's sight
Is like going to a loser to ask advice
And by basing your plans
On another man's way of living life
Is creating a brand of ethics
Sure to be missing the punch
No count morals that are out to lunch
They're sliding away cause everything is okay
It was taboo back then but today ya say, "What the hey"

[repeat chorus]

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Here we go, here we go
A come on, a come on
Here we go, here we go
A come on, a come on
Here we go, here we go
A come on, a come on
Here we go, here we go
A come on, a come on

Everybody's doin' it
Who's doin' it
Everybody's doin' it
Yo, who's doin' it
Everybody's doin' it
Who's doin' it
Everybody's doin' it
Yo, yo, yo, who's doin' it
Ohhhh, alright
Ohhhh, come on

[bridge]
We gotta back to the principles found in the Word
A little G-O-D could be society's cure
From the state that we're in cause again we're slipping
So pray for America 'cause time is ticking

[repeat chorus 2x]

Don't Wait

"Don't Wait" by Addison Road is a great song about not waiting for things because you never know what tomorrow will bring. Don't wait to love. Don't wait to live. Don't wait to laugh. :)

Today I lost a friend of mine
I never even got to say goodbye
I thought we had time to burn
But life is short
You only get one turn

Whoa,gone before you know
Whoa,so make the most

We're not indestructible
Our lives are unpredictable
It can turn on a dime
So now is the time
Don't wait
Don't wait
Gotta live today
Gotta live today
Today


So here I am wide awake
Blinded by a brand new day
Every breath given to me
Is a gift I want to redeem

Whoa,the minutes they unwind
Whoa,so I gotta make the time

Cause we're not indestructible
Our lives are unpredictable
It can turn on a dime
So now is the time
Don't wait
Don't wait

We're not indestructible
Our lives are all predictable
It can turn on a dime
On a dime
Don't wait
Don't wait

In the blink of an eye
You snap and time goes by
Time goes by

We'll wonder where it all went
If we forget
So don't forget

We're not indestructible
Our lives are unpredictable
It can turn on a dime
So now is the time
Don't wait
Don't wait

We're not indestructible
Our lives are unpredictable
It can turn on a dime
On a dime
So don't wait
Don't wait
Gotta live today
You gotta live today
Don't wait
Don't wait

Don't wait
Don't wait
You gotta live today

Made For Me

I love this song, "Made For Me" by tobyMac about his wife. It's so sweet I cry. It's from his new album, Eye on It.

Click here to listen.

Yea, here we go
1, 2, 3

She was 17 when she came on the scene
I saw her down the hall and felt that I was in a dream
See she was from the islands
Which had this brother smiling
Little did I know that I’d be on this mic and testifying

I love sunsets but she likes sunrise
I’m always running late and she’s always on time
But I like U2 and she like Coldplay
But something tells me we’re gonna be OK

‘Cause she was made for me
You gave ‘er to me
I said I’d hold on loose but I so wanna squeeze you
Just right for me and for the life of me
I can’t believe I get to call her mine

And she was made for me
Made for me
And she was made for me
Made for me

Next chapter - we got hitched
And thought we’d have some kids
Looked up and now we got five little Jamaricans

I thank God every day
I’m blessed in a crazy way
My daughter said 2 to 8
This thing we got is cool like shade

I love sunsets but she likes sunrise
I’m always running late and she’s always on time
Well I like hip-hop and she likes raggae
So we meet in the middle with some Shattie

‘Cause she was made for me
You gave ‘er to me
I said I’d hold on loose but I so wanna squeeze you
Just right for me and for the life of me
I can’t believe I get to call her mine

And she was made for me
Made for me
And she was made for me
Made for me

She is a flower, You are the rain
She gets more beautiful with every passing day
She is my flower and You are the sun
She gets more beautiful because of how You love
How You love

I get to call her mine
I get to call her mine, oh my

See she like slow days and I like fast days
She into books, I’m into movies
She made straight As
Well I got white skin and she got brown skin
But milk and coffee’s always been a beautiful blend

She was made for me
When You gave ‘er to me
I said I’d hold on loose but I so wanna squeeze you
Just right for me and for the life of me
I can’t believe I get to call her mine

She was made for me
When You gave ‘er to me
I said I’d hold on loose but I so wanna squeeze you
Just right for me and for the life of me
I can’t believe I get to call her mine

And she was made for me
She was made, she was made
Made for me
And she was made for me
She was made, she was made
Made for me

She was made, she was made for me (I get to call her mine)
She was made, she was made for me (I get to call her mine, oh my)

"Stand in the Rain" by Superchick.

She never slows down.
She doesn't know why but she knows that when she's all alone, feels like its all coming down
She won't turn around
The shadows are long and she fears if she cries that first tear, the tears will not stop raining down

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain

She won't make a sound
Alone in this fight with herself and the fears whispering if she stands she'll fall down
She wants to be found
The only way out is through everything she's running from wants to give up and lie down.

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain

So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
Stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain

"Love Somebody"

This is a fun song about loving others. "Love Somebody" by Mandisa feat. TobyMac. (Those two are an awesome combination.)

Click to listen and dance.


"Love Somebody"


I need a minute, can we get some time?
We both know we don't see eye to eye
I know it's hard on us when we disagree
But don't you think that you and me could take a chance?

And love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to love

Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

I had a dream just the other day
With blinded eyes we let real love guide the way
Nobody felt we had to look the same or talk the game
We found true beauty and we weren't afraid to go ahead

And love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to
Love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to love

Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
But she gave me eight to flow and translate
Recalibrate, end all debates

'Cause this bomb is about to drop, y'all
Diverse City just can't be stopped
So here we go, come, check the show
Come one, come all, come overflow with love

Yeah, love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to

Love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

Go ahead and love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to love

Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

Come on, if Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme

If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme

You Found Me lyricsI saw three a.m. come and go again
Another sleepless night, thanks to living my own way
All my great ideas, I've regretted most of them
But that was back long before the day

When I saw a flash of light and I heard the sound
Of a voice like thunder shake the ground
It was the first time I remember ever feeling my heartbeat
And the arms that gripped me felt like grace
And I realized in their embrace
To be held so tight
I've never felt so free
Also know as the day that you found me
[. From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/big-daddy-weave-lyrics/you-found-me-lyrics.html .]

My whole life has changed ever since the day You came
The way I see, the things I want, it's everything
Some may call it strange, I don't care what people say
I knew You were the only way

I've never known a love like this
You've captured my heart and You brought the sweetest
Peace to my life, brought me into the light
Now I'm all Yours, Jesus, draw me into You

I don't think that I could ever be the same
Who would want to be anyway

"Atmosphere"

THis is one of my new favorite songs. "Atmosphere" by TobyMac feat. DC Talk, so it's a little remeniscint of "Between You And Me" by DC Talk. I love the smooth jazzy sound and awesome lyrics about encouragement in hard times.

"Atmoshpere" by TobyMac feat. DC Talk.

I know you keep a journal and every page is rippled
From the tears that you cry, ain't no meanin' to your scribble
Cause words can't describe what you've been feelin' inside
It's like thousand foot walls, and they're still on the rise
But look up to a beautiful sound
And see for yourself you're not that far down
And know this, I cannot love a little
My promise to you is unconditional

And I'll keep the light on, baby
Just keep the course, you can weather the storm
I'll keep the light on, baby
You've come this far, don't you ever lose heart, now

Just turn around and I'll be there
I'm moving into your atmosphere
Just turn around and I'll be there
I'm moving into your atmosphere

I know you're all alone in a crowd full of friends
I can see it in your eyes that your fadin' again
Checking out, moving into your hole
Where the light can't touch any part of your soul
But hold up and let the river rush in
You can turn around and start livin' again
Cause your life is a beautiful bloom
In the image of the one that created you

I'll be there

Said I'll be there, said I'll be there
Said I'll be there always, forever

"True Beauty"

I just heard this song and I rather like it. "True Beauty" by Mandisa. It's a good reminder that true beauty comes from that inner glow within, not from Mabeline. :)

Do You think that a California girl is supposed to have curls and wear a jean size 3?
All the curves in all the right places, spray tanned faces like on TV?
And we read in the gospel of Vogue that we're all supposed to dress and move and be
Visions of perfection
Such a misconception
'Cause the real connection is deeper than the eye can see

Chorus:
What's inside of you
What's inside of me
The hands that made the moon and the stars
The mountains and the seas
Made you wonderful, beautiful, marvelously
Let the whole world see your
True beauty

Don't know much about Dolce and Gabbana
Seems like a lot of drama to me
And you can keep all your red high heels
And open-toed shoes - I'm good in my bare feet
Lets get down to the nitty gritty
Enough "S** and the City"
What about purity?
Skin is just the surface
The passion and the purpose that's burning down inside us
Is really what we need to see

Chorus

Doesn't come in a bottle, doesn't come in a box
You can't spray it on, you can't wash it off
You can't nip and tuck, you can't sew it up
So don't waste your time
It's the love in your heart, the peace in your soul
The hope in your smile lets the whole world know
This little light - you gotta let it shine

Chorusx2 I just heard this song and I rather like it. "True Beauty"

"Only The World"

[Verse 1:]
Been a hard one, Been a bad one
Been a tough one, Been a sad one
It's been one of those days that keeps chipping away at my heart
Nothing new here, It's what I do here
It's a stereotypical day, in the life
I'm surrounded by all of the pain and the strife
But I know it's alright, woah oh

[Chorus:]
Cause it's only the world I'm living in
It's only today I've been given
There ain't no way I'm giving in
Cause it's only the world (only the world)
I know the best is still yet to come
Cause even when my days in the world are done
There's gonna be so much more than only the world for me
Do do do do do do do do do, yeah it's only the world

[Verse 2:]
Anybody can you hear me?
Do you feel me? I mean, do you feel me?
I know I'm not the only one wearing the weight in this world
We got problems (said it's alright)
Just remember (yeah, it's alright)
Take a good look around we're just stuck on the ground for a little while
Don't it make you smile

[Chorus:]
Cause it's only the world I'm living in (Yeah)
It's only today I've been given(Yeah)
There ain't no way I'm giving in
Cause it's only the world (only the world)
I know the best is still yet to come
Cause even when my days in the world are done
There's gonna be so much more than only the world for me
Do do do do do do do do do, yeah it's only the world

Do do do do do do do do do, yeah it's only the world

[Bridge:]
Heaven is a place where the tears on every face will be wiped away
And I can't wait to go, but for now it's enoughto know
This is only temporary this is only, Yeah, Alright!

[Chorus:]
Cause it's only the world I'm living in
It's only the day I've been given
There ain't no way I'm giving in
Cause it's only the world (only the world)

There's gonna be so much more than only the world for me

Cause it's only the world I'm living in

There ain't no way I'm giving in
Cause it's only the world (only the world)
I know the best is still yet to come
Cause even when my days in the world are done
There's gonna be so much more than only the world for me

This is a happy song. "Joy" by Newsboys. My favorite part is about how the world can't give nor take away joy. "

Click to listen.

"Joy" by Newsboys

You give me joy that's unspeakable
And I like it, And I like it
Your love for me is irresistible
I can't fight it, I can't fight it

If life is water, I was dry as Tuscon dirt
If it's a gamble, I'd already lost my shirt
If it's a journey, I was dazed without a clue
I flipped a 'U' back to the first love I ever knew

CHORUS
You give me joy that's unspeakable
And I like it, And I like it
Your love for me is irresistible
I can't fight it, I can't fight it
You carried the cross and took my shame
I believe it, I believe it
You shine Your light of amazing grace
I recieve it, I receive it

If life's a battle, the invasion is complete
If it's a rhythm, I have found the perfect beat
If it's a renaissance, I've got a new birthday
The world don't give it
And the world can't take it away

CHORUS

I'm bowed and broken, everything's new
All that I need, You're like water to seed
And how Your love, rights everything wrong
And in my weakness
You're ever stronger, You're pulling me back
Where I belong

CHORUS

Get behind me I’m coming through
I’m armed and dangerous
I’m like an army that’s fed up with you
Commanding you must
Get out my way and go back
To where you came from
Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!

I’m sick and tired of all you’re lies
Nothing you say could make me
Agree with you, I know the truth
Nothing you do could break me
You just don’t know who your messing with
I’m a warrior

Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!
The weapons of my warfare
They are not carnal

Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!
The weapons of my warfare
They are not carnal

The victory is mine
I’m taking back everything at least seven times
I raise my sword and make you wish
You never even tried
I’m telling you, No More!

All your attempts are only making me stronger
Your strategy ain’t fooling me any longer
I see you loud and clear
You can’t hide, but you can run
Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!

You best be leaving now
cause I’m about to bring some glory
You lose, and thanks again
for giving me an awesome story
You just don’t know who you’re messing with
I’m a warrior
Oh! No! I’m telling you no more!

Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!
The weapons of my warfare
They are not carnal
Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!
The weapons of my warfare
They are not carnal

The victory is mine
I’m taking back everything at least seven times
I raise my sword and make you wish
You never even tried
I’m telling you, No More

I’m not afraid cause I’m not alone
So be on your way
There’s nothing here for you
The battle’s already won
You ain’t worth my time
I ain’t messing with you no more
You’ve been defeated under my feet
Crushed on the floor
You ain’t done nothing
But make me a better warrior!
So I’m telling you, no more!
The victory is mine
I’m taking back everything at least seven times
I raise my sword and make you wish
you never even tried
I’m telling you, No More!

The victory is mine
I’m taking back everything at least seven times
I raise my sword and make you wish
You never even tried
I’m telling you, No More!

"Between You And Me"

Sorrow is a lonely feeling
Unsettled is a painful place
I've lived with both
For far too long now
Since we've parted ways

I've been wrestling
With my conscience
And I found myself to blame
If there's to be any resolution
I've got to peel my pride away

Just between You and me
I've got something to say
Wanna get it straight
Before the sun goes down

Just between You and me
Confession needs to be made
Recompense is my way to freedom now

Just between You and me
I've got something to say

If confession is the road to healing
Forgiveness is the promised land, oh
I'm reaching out in my conviction
I'm longing to make amends, yeah

So I'm sorry for
The words I've spoken
For I've betrayed a friend
We've got a love
That's worth preserving
And a bond I will defend

Just between you and me
I've got something to say
Wanna get it straight
Before the sun goes down

Just between You and me
Confession needs to be made
Recompense is my way to freedom

Just between You and me
I've got something to say

In my pursuit of God
I thirst for holiness
As I approach the Son
I must consider this

Offenses unresolved
Will keep me from the throne
Before I go to Him
My wrong must be atoned

If there's to be any resolution
I've got to peel this pride away

Ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa

Just between You and me
I've got something to say
Wanna get it straight
Before the sun goes down

Just between you and me
Confession needs to be made
Recompense is my way to freedom

It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say
So let me say it today

It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say
Confession needs to be made

It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say
Confession needs to be made

It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

You were walking on the moon, now you're feeling low
What they said wasn't true, you're beautiful
Sticks and stones break your bones, I know what you're feeling
Words like those won't steal your glow, you're one in a million

This, this is for all the girls, and boys all over the world
Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high, it's your time to shine
From the inside it shows, you're worth more than gold
(gold gold, you're gold)
You're worth more than gold
(gold gold you're gold)

Well everybody keeps score, afraid you're gonna lose
Just ignore they don't know the real you
All the rain in the sky can't put out your fire
Of all the stars out tonight, you shine brighter

This, this is for all the girls, and boys all over the world
Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high, it's your time to shine
From the inside it shows, you're worth more than gold
(gold gold, you're gold)
You're worth more than gold
(gold gold you're gold)

So don't let anybody tell you that you're not loved
And don't let anybody tell you that you're not enough
Yeah there are days that we all feel like we are messed up
But the truth is that we're all diamonds in the rough
So don't be ashamed to wear your crown
You're a king you're a queen inside and out
You glow like the moon, you shine like the stars
This is for you, wherever you are

Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, oh,
You're gold

This, this is for all the girls, and boys all over the world
Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high,
It's your time to shine
From the inside it shows, you're worth more than gold
(gold gold, you're gold)
You're worth more than gold
(gold gold you're gold)

So don't be ashamed to wear your crown
You're a king you're a queen inside and out

"Walls"

This is a fun song. "Walls" by Manic Drive

Click here to listen.

We are one but we're not the same
For a thousand years we've played this game And the tension rises up Ya the passion's given up

So our God reaches to unite
While amongst ourselves we fight
And I'm sick of wasting time
Ya I got something on my mind

So lift your hands, move your feet
Get your, get yourself ready
Lift your flags, hit the streets
And charge

So lift your hands, move your feet
Get your, get yourself ready
Lift your flags, hit the streets
And charge

No you can never stop it from coming
Those against me can take off running
Cause there's something going down
Ya these walls are coming down
Cause the truth that has been said
Will unite us once again
Cause there's something going down
Ya these walls are coming down

Can we practice what we preach
And turn these fists into hands that reach Embrace ourselves with open arms Turn this hate into loving heart

What goes up, must come down
So I'll march towards this town
And undo what has been done
Tear down these bricks and stones one by one

So lift your hands, move your feet
Get your, get yourself ready
Lift your flags, hit the streets
And charge

So lift your hands, move your feet
Get your, get yourself ready
Lift your flags, hit the streets
And charge

No you can never stop it from coming
Those against me can take off running
Cause there's something going down
Ya these walls are coming down
Cause the truth that has been said
Will unite us once again

Cause there's something going down
Ya these walls are coming down
No you can never stop it from coming
No you can never stop
