My Life Through Song

Music is a large part of my life. Melodies, lyrics, and beats reach my inmost being. Often, when I go through hard times or exciting times a song will come to mind that fits the situaiton. If I were to put my life to song right now, here are the lyrics that would come out:


Either this life is meaningless or its meaning is
Eclipsed by a series of events that satisfy for the moment
But once your moment is passed your moment's the past
Then *poof* dude you can't revive it or hold it
You're born you suffer you die when you're older
But there's a loophole, I wouldn't lie to my soldiers
Nor would I lie to my sisters, God is my witness
Jesus Christ is the only escape from out of your prison


~'DA TRUTH



Why, why are you still here with me? Didn't you see what I've done?
In my shame I want to run and hide myself.
But God's here I see the truth I don't deserve you.
But I need you to love me, and I won't keep my heart from you this time
And I'll stop this pretending that I can somehow deserve what I already have.

I, I have wasted so much time pushing you away from me
I just never saw how you could cherish me
Cause you're a God who has all things and still you want me.
Your love makes me forget what I have been.
Your love makes me see who I really am.
Your love makes me forget what I have been.

I need you to love me


~BARLOW GIRL



There You stood holding me
Waiting for me to notice You.
But who are You?
You are the truth. Outscreaming these lies.
You are the truth. Saving my life.

And I worship. And I worship.


~FLYLEAF



Inside out you are a girl so beautiful
Inside out this love is so incredible
All your life you've never known
Has nobody told you? Has nobody told you?

Beautiful inside and out
I'm wondering how you never knew
You were made in the image of the Most High.
So praise Him you are made wonderfully.
It's true, even if you don't believe
That you're so amazing, I wish you knew.
Don't you know you're so beautiful?


~CALLING ELIJAH



I need you, more than anybody says.
My heart beats faster with you around the bend.
I want you, more than you would ever know.
My heart beats faster. Come on and let it show.

Sticks and stones will break my bones
And names will always hurt me.
The weight of expectation falls.
And brings me to my leads.


~MUMSDOLLAR



Fall down with my face down
Giving up me, myself, and I it’s a bittersweet taste to swallow my pride.
Now face down is where I stay now
If you see me standing up again just knock me back down so I can live face down.


~FAMILY FORCE FIVE



What will people think when they hear that I'm a Jesus freak?
What will people do when they find that it's true?
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus freak.
There ain't no disguising the truth.


~DC TALK



It's the Gospel,
it's the word of the Lord,
people yearn for the cure,
so we carry our swords.

It's the Ministry,
we steppin' up outta church,
and taking it round the earth,
and doing the Father's purpose.

It's the Faith,
'cause the people they need a reason,
hoping that they can see
we fighting for what we believe.

It's the Lifestyle,
this is not a facade,
we die to our pride,
so we can bring honor to God.

Now I've never been very assertive, I guess I always preferred to just keep my mouth shut, so a lot of unspoken words are coming out now. Figured I'd speak out loud before it's too late for me to get my thoughts out.

This world is so perverted from sex, greed, to murder. We've been judged by the clergy and guilty's the verdict, but thank God the High Priest interceded and cleared up the dirt that I stirred up. But thankfully the Living Word is something I heard of which means that death is something I don't got to be scared of I've been cured of it.

Now all the years that I've wasted and all the tears that I've tasted have forced me to face the truth and embrace it. Which leads me to the question it's simple and basic: What is true life and have you ever tasted it?

There's only one thing to live for, die for, get killed for,
and no it's not what they selling on them billboards.
Death is for certain, you can't take the pill for it.
It's happening whether you will or won't ignore.
Look at the signs, we running out of time,
There's work to be done it's the Bottom of the Ninth.
So get busy, hey, get busy, hey,
Choose life, seek Christ, and get busy, hey.

So when you're tired and low down and everything seems to go wrong put on your rally caps and be strong. We down in the bottom of the ninth but know now the one who's gonna win the showdown. So keep, keep on, keep fighting the whole round, and know the same One who's faithful is gonna crown, He see's ya. So get busy. He's so proud you're his own child believe me.

You only got one life to live.
You only got one life to give.
You only got one life to lose.
You only got one life to choose what you gonna live for.
There's only one thing worth living for.
