The Unbeliever

When you start to take a look within
Do you feel at ease with what you see
Do you think you can have peace of mind
And have self belief or be satisfied

Do you think you even like yourself
Or really think you could be someone else
Is there something that you'd rather be
Never thought you'd be

The Utter Importance Of Eating Cheetos

One day I just woke up
Just knew things were different, as I drank my cup
Of water, it was sweet, it tasted different
I really felt, that something had been sent
My way
Some joy, some kind of peace, no it wasn't those
It wasn't my clothes
It was... sweeter... it was, freedom, yes freedom I say

Today, that day, would include possibly one of the most important
Moments of my entire life
Although my day was rife
With the mundane and the normal, my freedom was heaven-sent
So I did something I didn't think I could ever do
I did something that I never knew
Could ever be so important, so sweet... so free

I opened up the pantry
I found exactly was I was looking for
I poured myself a plate of cheetos... and then some more
But I didn't realize the importance of what was about to happen
The kind of occurrence where you're amazed and just say amen
I reached over to eat a cheeto
But then I thought you know....
I don't want my hands to get dirty
Hmmmm well let's see
I've seen people do a lot of things, like use a bag
Put them in a cup, but then I thought of something totally unique
This idea definitely did pique
My interest and it would get me out of my snag
I decided I would do something I thought I'd never do
Something really weird too
I grabbed a spoon and used that to eat each cheeto
But who could ever know
The utterly significant beauty of this one moment

To me I had for once, done something that made me, me
I did something unique, because I wanted to... finally
I was starting to feel like I had an identity
I had hated myself for so long, anything that made me, me
I refused to see
It was repulsive because it was... it was..., well it was me

But today with sweetness and freedom
I ate my cheetos and it was bomb!
I ate them with a spoon, and now that's part of my identity
I felt like I was me, I'm... I'm me

But I felt one other thing that I also did not expect
In this very deep moment, there was some other feeling I did detect
As I used my spoon and looked behind me
Just to see
If anyone else could see me
I had this very strange feeling besides my freedom and sweetness

I wonder if I could describe it for you hmmmmm
I guess I felt kinda like... I felt kinda like, O that's it!

I felt like a dork

Momma's Crying

2: 30 am, nobody's on the raod
But me, my brother, and my mom
Trying to get away, but have no where to go
We're running on empty and it won't last long

We're leaving everything we have
Hoping for a brand new start
My brother's asleep in the back
My mom's driving with a broken heart

I looked back at my brother, then over at my mom
That moment changed my life
The woman I thought was so damn strong
Had a single tear in her eye

I've never seen her like this
It was so different to me
Was there something that I missed
Something I failed to see

I hate seeing you this way
Whats the matter mom
She had nothing to say
So I just moved on

Lately she's been crying a lot
Still nobody knows why
It seems like she never stops.

It hurts to see your momma cry

When You Have Nothing At All To Say

there are days of drudgery
hours that drag, months that you think are too long
like mountain trails that you feel you cannot really tread
years that look like tall buildings without elevators

you are stunned by all these
you hold the railings of the stairs and wait and then you decide
to just sit there
the passers-by look at you
could be something like disdain
you let them stare at you and you do not stare back
you look down the dusty floors
this is the time when you have nothing at all to say
hoping to find that peace within

I Think I Could Stand You Forever

Would you say no if I asked you for your hand
Could you believe in the same words that I dont understand
And would you cry if I told you I must go
Chorus:
Ive been waiting such a long, long time, I think I could stand you forever
Ive been wanting you a long, long time, I think I could stand you forever
Would you say no if I asked you for this one chance
Am I a fool to believe that this night is circumstance
I wish that for once you could see the look in your own eyes
Chorus
(instrumental break)
Chorus
I think I could stand you forever
Think I could stand you, think I could stand you forever, yeah
Think I could stand you forever, yeah - I think I could stand you
Think I could stand you forever, yeah - forever and ever
Think I could stand you forever, yeah
Think I could stand you forever and ever and ever

When You're Looking Like That

She's a 5 foot 10 in catsuit
and bambi eyes
Everybody who's staring wouldn't
believe that this girl was mine

I should have known I was wrong
When I left her for a life in pity but
they say you you never miss
the water until it's gone (yeah)

Guess I failed to love you
And you're taking it out tonight

How am I supposed to leave you now
When you're looking like that
I can't believe what I just gave away
Now I can't take it back
I don't wanna get lost
I don't wanna live my life without you
Am I supposed to leave you now
When you're looking like that

She's all dressed up for glamour and
rock and roll
Wanna squeeze her real tight
Get out of this place
If only I could take control

But she's out of my reach forever
And just a week ago she lied
next to me
It's so ironic how I had to lose
Just to see
That I failed to love you
And you're taking it out tonight

(Chorus)

I don't wanna forget you
I don't even wanna try
How am I supposed to walk on by
When you're looking like that

How am I supposed to leave you
I can't believe what I just gave away
'Cause I can't take it back

When You Really Love Someone

I'm a woman
lord knows it hard
i need a real man to give me what i need
sweet attention love and tenderness
when it real it's unconditional
i'm telling ya'll
cause a man just ain't a man if he aint man enough
to love you when you right
love you when you wrong
love you when you weak
love you when you strong
(take you higher) when the world got you feelin low
he's given you his last cause
he's thinkin of you first given comfort when
he's think that you hurt (that's done when you really love someone )
i'm telling ya'll i'm telling ya'll
cause your a real man
and lord knows it's hard
sometimes you just need a woman's touch

cause a woman ain't a woman if she ain't woman
enough to love you when you right
love you when you wrong
love you when you weak love you when you strong
(take you higher)when the world got you feelin low

given comfort when she thinkin
that you hurt (that's what done when you really love
someone) i'm telling ya'll i'm telling ya'll
um...um..um...um
sometimes you want to argue
sometimes you want to fight
sometimes it's going to feel like it will never be right
but something so strong keeps
you holdin on it don't make sense
but it makes a good song
Cause a man just aint a man if he aint man enough
to love you when you right

When you say I am your dream-boy

When you say I am your dream-boy
I think I could break-dance with joy

When you stare at me with those eyes
Hopes come in my mind like sunrise

When you kiss me like an angel
I feel so warm I feel so well

When you hold me tight in your arms
O my heart starts throbbing like drums

What Will You Be Like When You're Eighty-Two (Shakespearean Sonnet)

What will you be like when you're eighty-two
Will I be alive or six feet under
Will you still believe that our love is true
And what if our love were torn asunder
Would we be able to bear such a thing
I do not feel I could live without you
I believe I would rather feel death's sting
My love do you feel the same as I do
And what if our love were to have faded
For destiny has been known to be cruel
And many a love has become jaded
Oh why do I feel like I am a fool
You may not remember me at that age
Just like in a book you'll have turned the page

When You Come Back

before you go
you put three things
just three things
on the table of your room

a red rose, a yellow mongol pencil,
a nail cutter,

a nail cutter is nothing
but when you come back you find it missing.

you think about the nail cutter
that ordinary nail cutter that you can buy
at anytime
in any store,

it is not there anymore, the red rose wilted
and the yellow mongol pencil is untouched.

you still think about the nail cutter
where could it be? who took it?

your world revolves now around
the missing nail cutter.

it is like loving an ordinary person,
who is now
missing.

Pictures of you

Looking through pictures of what we used to be
young faces
old image
but the moments we shared are still new to me
we have been in a drawer collecting dust
and I know keeping us, is stupid but
your the only person I could ever really trust.

I just wanna call you
I just wanna talk to you
tell you how I feel
give you love
coz I finally know its real

I sit in sorrow feeling like no one understands
when I go out all I see is happy couples holding hands
I'm looking for someone like me
I whish I could find someone like me
to make me laugh
but all I have
is you
and your a photograph.

When You Kiss Me

When we kiss me
I know you miss me

When you kiss me
You know you want to be with me

When you kiss me
you take the world off my shoulders

When you kiss me
you want me in your arms tonight

When you kiss me
I always think of you

When you kiss me
I miss your soft lips

When we go out to the movies
We always kiss in the movie

When you kiss me
you take away my breathe

When you kiss me
you take my soul away

When you kiss me
I know you miss me

When you kiss me
You take away my pains

When you kiss me
I felt like walking on clouds

When you kiss me
You make the world go away

When you kiss me
I will love you more.

When You Dance I Can Really Love

When you dance,
Do your senses tingle?
Then take a chance?
In a trance,
While the lonely mingle
With circumstance?
Ive got something to tell you, you make it show.
Let me come over, I know you know
When you dance I can really love.
I can love, I can really love, I can really love
I can love, I can really love, I can really love
Like a mountain thats growing a river that rolls
Let me come over, I know you know
When you dance I can really love.
When you dance,
Do your senses tingle?
Then take a chance?
In a trance,
While the lonely mingle
With circumstance?
Ive got something to tell you, you make it show.
Let me come over, I know you know
When you dance I can really love.

When You treat Me like that

My sweet heart cried out her heart
She said I break her heart
When I treat her like that
She said I made her sad when she caught me on the act
I never knew I could break a heart
Not that of my sweet heart
Now she is parking out of my house.
What can a man do to mend
A broken heart?
I am now alone, all alone in my empty
House, and my empty heart
Or should i say, my broken heart.
It is difficult, very difficult to live
Without her in my heart and my house
These days I drink, day in, day out
I try to forget my sweet heart,
But when I'm sober, there she is, right here in my heart
Her last words to me, 'You break my heart when you treat me lile that, I cant live like that'
She parked and left my house
Now here I am drinking my life out
Here I am crying my heart out.
my sweet heart has broken my heart
When she treat me like that.

When You Love, Love

when you love
love, do not think of any other thing
like a disease
HIV, cervical cancer, hepatitis
STD,
when you love
love with all your heart
kiss the leprosy in her heart
hug the virus on her breast
love, love, love with all your heart
make love with love
and savor the moment that love has offered
every drop...every moment...every ecstasy...
ever

when i love, i always love, i set aside the mind
i take everything at heart
i refuse to think
about the hurt
the future mess
the possibility of errors
i am blind
i just touch
and feel my way all through this maze

and when love is gone
if ever be
i take all the hurt, the blame, the regrets

it is love in me, it is this self-annhilation
this dying upon oneself for the other

this death
that gives my redemption, my resurrection
it is love
and not the thought of love

the love that is real that dies upon itself
only to be born again

When You Awake

Ollie told me Im a fool. so i
Walked on down the road a mile, went to the house that brings a smile
Sat upon my grandpas knee, and what do you think he said to me?
(chorus:)
When you awake you will remember evrything, you will be
Hangin on a string from your... when you believe, you will relieve the only
Soul
That you were born with to grow old and never know
Ollie showed me the fork in the road.
You can take to the left or go straight to the right,
Use your days and save your nights,
Be careful where you step, and watch wha-cha eat,
Sleep with the light on and you got it beat.
(repeat chorus)
Ollie warned me its a mean old world,
The street dont greet ya, yes, its true;
But what am I supposed to do:
Read the writing on the wall,
I heard itwhen I was very small.
(repeat chorus)
Wash my hand in lye water, I got a date with the
Captains daughter. you can go and tell your brother. we sure gonna
Love one another, oh! you
May be right and ya might be wrong, I aint gonna worry all day long.
Snows gonna come and the frost gonna bite, my old car froze
Up last night. aint no reason to hang your head I could wake up in the
Mornin dead. oh! and
If I thought it would do any good, Id stand on the rock where moses stood.

When You Think About Your Gifts From God

When you think about your gifts from God...
Don't be limited,
With the gifts God gives.

And when you think about those gifts from God...
Don't just sit around,
With your head held down.

You gotta get up in the groove and move.
You do!
Just move,
And groove.
You gotta do it...
And,
You gotta get up in the groove and move.
You do!
Just move,
And groove.
You gotta do it!

When you think about your gifts from God...
Don't be limited,
With the gifts God gives
And...
When you think about those gifts from God...
Don't just sit around,
With your head held down.

You gotta get up in the groove and move.
You do!
Just move,
And groove.
You gotta do it...
And,
You gotta get up in the groove and move.
You do!
Just move,
And groove.
You gotta do it!

When you think about your gifts from God...
Don't be limited,
With the gifts God gives.
And..
You gotta get up in the groove and move.
You do!
Just move,
And groove.
You gotta do it,
And,
You gotta get up in the groove and move.
You do!
Just move,
And groove.
You gotta do it,
And,
You gotta get up in the groove and move.
You do!
Just move,
And groove.
You gotta do it,
And,
When you think about your gifts from God...
Don't be limited.
Take your eyes off the ground!

You Can Take It With You (When You Go)

Well, I'm gonna have to get a new mailbox
'Cuz all she left me was a hole
And I'm gonna hafta get a new washin' machine
As soon as I get some new clothes
Well, I could close my eyes and run through this house
And never once stub my big toe
It was a man who'd never been left who said
You can't take it with you when you go
Hell, she took everything but the kitchen sink
If I had me a glass Lord, I'd pour me a drink
It's a lesson hard learned but it just goes to show
You can take it with you when you go
Well, I'm sittin' here on this hard floor
Where a big, soft couch used to be
And I'm starin' at a bug on the wall
Where there used to be a TV
Well, I'd kill that sucker in a heartbeat
If I could find me anything to throw
I was so naive to have ever believed
You can't take it with you when you go
Well, she took everything but the kitchen sink
If I had me a glass Lord, I'd pour me a drink
It's a lesson hard learned but it just goes to show
You can take it with you when you go
Well, she took everything but the kitchen sink
If I had me a glass Lord, I'd pour me a drink
It's a lesson hard learned but it just goes to show
You can take it with you when you go
I oughta call somebody but I ain't got a phone
Just goes to show you can take it with you when you go

You Can't Take It With You When You Go!

You can't take it with you when you go, boy,
You can't take it with you when you go.
For what good is all your wealth,
If you haven't got your health,
'Cos you can't take it with you when you go.

You can't take it with you when you go, boy,
You can't take it with you when you go.
Grasping relatives look on,
Hoping that you'll soon be gone,
'Cos you can't take it with you when you go.

You can't take it with you when you go, boy,
You can't take it with you when you go.
When they hear you've taken ill,
They'll be hunting for the will,
'Cos you can't take it with you when you go.

You can't take it with you when you go, boy,
You can't take it with you when you go.
It's a shame to think your bread
Will be squandered once you're dead,
'Cos you can't take it with you when you go.

You can't take it with you when you go, boy,
You can't take it with you when you go.
You don't have to spend the lot!
Sell the rolls and buy a yacht,
'Cos you can't take it with you when you go.

You can't take it with you when you go, boy,
You can't take it with you when you go.
Dress the missus up in Bling!
Diamond necklace, brooch and ring,
'Cos you can't take it with you when you go.

For you can scrimp, and you can save,
But you're a long time in your grave!
So spend it now and have some fun - BEFORE you go! ! !

When you failed.....

When vision is blurred, you failed to see,
Movement restricted and world not free,
Whole world come to a grinding halt,
You seemed to think your actions are at fault,

There is straight principle which works silently,
Slight gain if you work and cheat conveniently,
Raise little to show you progress constantly,
Conscience not clear to show satisfaction instantly,

When success blinds and you see no further,
Take it as if you have lost vision together,
You may have vision but in fact blind,
Some force working from within and behind,

You may not like to see the reasons,
No change or alterations in seasons,
Only change if life style or thinking,
May push you forward in stage sinking,

Nothing will impress or deter,
No amount of persuasions alter,
You live in your own world,
Relations freeze as ice in cold,

You get beating at appropriate time,
You seemed to have everything as goal prime,
Suddenly it appears you are on decline,
Nothing goes well and out of line,

No one is obeying your command,
Unfair talks and unreasonable demand,
You are loosing grip and out of gear,
Unwanted things you are forced to hear,

This all leads to your imminent fall,
Powerful signals and immediate call,
Resist the temptation before it is too late,
Family may turn against and start to hate,

Nothing will go well at eleventh hour,
Flower may be there but without flavour,
All odds and nothing in favour,
No warmth in relation but completely sour

Success should not always blind,
Arrogance and pride should not bind,
Always compromise with nature mild,
Nature too mixing and approach kind
