“You’ll Love this when I’m Famous”

What?!? Josh Groban and Michael Buble? Together?!?!

This is by far the most popular entry on my entire blog. You all should be commenting on how awesome this video is, or how bad it sucks, or how you want to see more.
Oh, and you should also be telling all your friends how cool this blog is.
Yeah. Like whoa.

old skool song lyrics

Hold the milk, put back the sugar
They are powerless to console
We’ve gathered here to sprinkle ashes
From our late friend’s cereal bowl.

Breakfast Clubbers, say the motto
That he taught us to repeat:
“You will lose it in your gym class, if you wait til noon to eat”.

Back when the Chess Club said our eggs were soft
Every Monday he’d say grace and hold our juice aloft
Oh, none of us knew his checkout time would come so soon
But before his brain stopped waving, he composed this tune:

Chorus:
WHEN THE TOAST IS BURNED
AND ALL THE MILK HAS TURNED
AND CAPTAIN CRUNCH IS WAVING FAREWELL,
WHEN THE BIG ONE FINDS YOU MAY THIS SONG REMIND YOU
THAT THEY DON’T SERVE BREAFAST IN HELL

For absolutely no reason at all except the music…

I’m listening to three CDs my ex Rhema gave me.

Does it bring back memories of her and I? Not really. We never listened to them together and none of the songs were ‘our song’(save the song, Come What May, which is probably the best song in the entire universe).

I just remembered I had the music and really felt like listening to it. The mixes are just perfect.

The song, The Distance, by Evan & Jaron is really awesome. Wanna read the lyrics? Click below

The Greatest American Hero

Look at what’s happened to me,
I can’t believe it myself.
Suddenly I’m up on top of the world,
It should’ve been somebody else.

Believe it or not,
I’m walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it’s just me.

Just like the light of a new day,
It hit me from out of the blue.
Breaking me out of the spell I was in,
Making all of my wishes come true.

Believe it or not,
I’m walking on air.
I never thought I could feel so free.
Flying away on a wing and a prayer.
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it’s just me

Hmmm

I had planned on going through my LJ, and giving you guys links to what I consider to be my favorite posts. But I’m tired, so that will have to wait.
I just found out my brother can’t/won’t mow the yard(even if I pay him) cause my mom and/or sister won’t watch Hayli. Oh, the joy. Doesn’t phase me though. I’ll just end up paying different people a whole lot more money to come out and do it professionally. That is, unless, someone out there wants to do it for free? Any takers? LOL.
My stuff got here today! I am very excited. Now all I have to do is make it look cool and mail it away-. Yup, I know it sounded cryptic, but I can’t go into details right now. I’m mailing ‘the package” to someone, and I don’t want to give away any hints on what it is, incase they read this before they get it.
My mom and dad leave Sunday for FL. Dad is going there cause of work, and mom is going with him so she can visit with her mom for mother’s day. They won’t be back until May 15. That means that it’ll just be me and my sister in the house for 2 weeks. Oh fun fun! LOL. (somebody save me…)
It also means.. not only will I have to work on my birthday, but no one will be here to celebrate it. EH, oh well. No biggie. I’ve celebrated my birthday by myself before, and it looks like I’ll do it again. I’m only turning 22. LOL
Well, I’m tired. going to go lay down and eventually go to sleep. Call the cell if you wanna talk. (we should all know the number by now)

One more thing before I go for the night—I’m including this little snitbit of a song that was in my head ALLLLL day. It’s an old christian rap song. Old Skool. LOL. What can I say? I’m bored and now if you click the following link, you’ll get to read the lyrics….

Verse 1: Without the Alaa-Kasam!·
God said I Am· Because God is, without the show biz·
Ain’t no magic in His linguistics·
He is the definition of existence·
Because God is before any thing was·
and God did before anyone does·
From Alpha to Omega· without the·
booooom shaker· He had it going on long before He allowed Sega·
A Wennobaga· will take ya· on a long tour· but He’s got much more·
than you could ever explore· · Infinite· Omnipotent· without descent·
say what He means, means what He meant· ·
The Monumentous, Mr. Advantageous· So Magnifico and yet Solo·
Uno· “Oh No!”· did this mess up the photo in your God portfolio·
Well, prepare for the Bollo· · Cause you know· and I know·
and others do also· God is displaying and saying, “I Am That I AM”

Chorus: Forever past; I Am That I Am·
Forever present; I AM That I AM· Forever future;
I AM That I AM · The Great; I AM That I AM, That I AM

Verse 2: In the beginning was the Word·
and the Word was with God· and the Word was God·
and God is still large· · Though some find Him strange·
He can’t exchange· or rearrange· and you sure can’t change· ·
Makes Himself known· makes Himself heard· makes Himself seen·
all through the Word· · Sometimes a lot a little· sometimes in a riddle·
Sometimes when He’s revealing, it’s hard like peanut brittle· ·
But He’ll break it down into bite size pieces· with a complete thesis·
that we can eat up like Reese’s· · Peanut butter cup·
so good, to the roof of your mouth it’ll get stuck· ·
So you can savor· the flavor· forever·
to keep your spirit strong and your intellect clever· ·
Pull the lever, on all the things you think you know·
shed the dead leaves so you can grow· and sow·
and reap and expand· humble yourself under the
mighty hand of the one that’s saying· I AM

| Chorus | Break |

The Bridge: He’s Omnipresent· ["to the"-(Alternates)]·
up-down-left-right-broad-day-light-door-way-truth-life-Father-
Spirit-Jesus Christ

Verse 3: Back on the scene·
the ever existing Almighty Supreme·
the Theme· · who came to earth· thru a super natural birth·
to give the worthless some worth· ·
The Pharisees’ and The Sadducee’s·
always tried to catch Him up in a freeze· ·
But please, how could they do this·
catch the super-cala-fraj-expe-alla-smooth-ness· ·
every time they would try to judge·
He would step up to beat down the grudge· ·
He said “You know your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day.”.
They said “Hey!”· How do you know the father Abraham,·
your not even fifty years old my man?”·
He said “Verily, verily, understand·
Before Abraham was…, Yeah, I AM!

training..

I’m done with training.
I start my actual job on Wednesday.
Today is friday, and there is nothing to do.
Somebody Save me.

I feel my wings have broken
In your hands
I feel the words unspoken
Inside
When they pull you under
And I would give you any thing you want
You were all I wanted
All my dreams are falling down
Crawling round and round and round

Somebody save me
Let your waters break right through
Somebody save me
I don’t care how you do it
Just save, save
Come on
I’ve been waiting for you

I see the world has folded in your heart
I feel the waves crash down inside
And they pull me under
And I would give you anything you want
You were all I wanted
All my dreams have fallen down
Crawling round and round and round

Somebody save me
Let your waters break right through
Somebody save me
I don’t care how you do it
Just save, save
Come on
I’ve been waiting for you

All my dreams are on the ground
Crawling’ round and round and round

Somebody save me
Let your waters break right through
Somebody save me
I don’t’ care how you do it
Just save me, save me
I’ve made this whole world shine for you
Just save, save
Come on
I’m still waiting for you

Ok ending to the night, and listened to one new song!

Well, Stargate was awesome! (It was a new episode) I really hope to get the series on dvd one day. Anyway, I’m about to head off to bed–but one last note: I went to watch that Naruto episdoe that downloaded, and it wasn’t Naruto at all! All that time and I had to delete it and start anew. LOL.
Hey, I went on Launchcast after my previous update for the day, and listened to a pretty damn cool song. I’ve included the lyrics below. Oh, and if anyone is wondering, it’s not directed towards Sabrina at all. LOL.
Here it is!

Until the day I die
I’ll spill my heart for you,
Until the day I die
I’ll spill my heart for you

As years go by
I race the clock with you
But if you died right now
You know that I’d die too,
I’d die too

You remind me of the times
When I knew who I was
But still the second hand will catch us
Like it always does

We’ll make the same mistakes
I’ll take the fall for you
I hope you need this now
Cause I know I still do

Until the day I die
I’ll spill my heart for you
Until the day I die
I’ll spill my heart for you

Should I bite my tongue?
Until blood soaks my shirt
We’ll never fall apart
Tell me why this hurts so much

My hands are at your throat
And I think I hate you
But still we’ll say, “remember when”
Just like we always do

Until the day I die
I’ll spill my heart for you
Until the day I die
I’ll spill my heart for you

Yeah I’d spill my heart,
Yeah I’d spill my heart for you

My hands are at your throat
And I think I hate you
We made the same mistakes
Mistakes like friends do

My hands are at your throat
And I think I hate you
We made the same mistakes

Until the day I die
I’ll spill my heart for you, for you

Until the day i die
I’ll spill my heart for you, for you
Until the day i die
I’ll spill my heart for you

Until the day i die
Until the day I die

Sometimes (the latest addition to my Sad Love Songs Playlist)

You tell me you’re in love with me
Like you can’t take your pretty eyes away from me
It’s not that I don’t want to stay
But every time you come too close I move away

I wanna believe in everything that you say
‘Cause it sounds so good
But if you really want me, move slow
There’s things about me you just have to know

Sometimes I run
Sometimes I hide
Sometimes I’m scared of you
But all I really want is to hold you tight
Treat you right, be with you day and night
Baby all I need is time

I don’t wanna be so shy
Every time that I’m alone I wonder why
Hope that you will wait for me
You’ll see that you’re the only one for me

I wanna believe in everything that you say
‘Cause it sounds so good
But if you really want me, move slow
There’s things about me you just have to know

Sometimes I run
Sometimes I hide
Sometimes I’m scared of you
But all I really want is to hold you tight
Treat you right, be with you day and night
Baby all I need is time

Come just hang around and you’ll see
There’s nowhere I’d rather be
If you love me, trust in me
the way that I trust in you

music lyrics

OK, so I am very big into music. And whenever I post lyrics on here it’s not just so I can find them later when I need to. Its because the songs are expressing something I am feeling or something I am going through–and I think that maybe someone out there is going through the same thing, or thinking about the same stuff, and maybe they haven’t heard the song yet.
So, with that, heres another song.

I’m finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it’s okay
The last thing I need is to be heard
But to hear what You would say

CHORUS
Word of God speak
Would You pour down like rain
Washing my eyes to see
Your majesty
To be still and know
That You’re in this place
Please let me stay and rest
In Your holiness
Word of God speak

I’m finding myself in the midst of You
Beyond the music, beyond the noise
All that I need is to be with You
And in the quiet hear Your voice

REPEAT CHORUS 2x

I’m finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it’s okay

Smile

How far are You?
How close am I?
I know Your words are true
When I don’t feel them inside
Still I believe You’ll never leave
So where are You, now?
You’re all I have
You’re all I’ve known
Your breath is breathing in my soul
Still I am gasping, aching, asking,
Where are you now?

‘Cause I just want to be with You
I just want this waiting to be over
I just want to be with You
And it helps to know the day is getting closer
But every minute takes an hour
Every inch feels like a mile
Till I won’t have to imagine
And I finally get to see You smile

My journey’s here but my heart is there
So I dream and wait and keep the faith
While You prepare
Our destiny, till You come back for me
Oh, please make it soon!

‘Cause I just want to be with You
(I dream about Your promise to return)
I just want this waiting to be over
(And I wake up hangin’ on Your every Word)
I just want to be with You
(But for now, my feet are planted here on Earth)
And it helps to know the day is getting closer
(And it helps to know the day is getting closer)
But every minute takes an hour
Every inch feels like a mile
Till I won’t have to imagine
And I finally get to see You smile.

I’m all right

I played the fool today
And I can see us vanishing into the crowd
Longing for home again
But home is a feeling I’ve buried in you
I’m all right
It only hurts when I breathe
I can’t ask for things to be still again
I can’t ask for you to offer the world through your eyes
Longing for home again
But home is a feeling I’ve buried in you
I’m all right
It only hurts when I breathe
My window through which nothing hides and everything sings
I’m counting the signs and cursing the miles in between
I’m all right
I’m all right
I’m all right
It only hurts when I breathe

Letter of Love

Dear friend, I’ve been thinking about you lately
Wondering how you’ve been getting by
I have the feeling that you are hurting
Something’s telling me inside
These words are coming down from heaven
I hope they’ll make you realize
There’s so much love He has for you
More than you can comprehend
He is standing at the door
He’s hopin’ you will let Him in
He can wipe away your tears
Give you strength to carry on
Through these hard and painful days
He will help you find your way
Find your way back home
In this letter of love

Dear friend, I wish that you were with me
Words come easy eye to eye
But since the distance separates us
Let Him hold you when you cry
There’s so much love He has for you
And a peace you can’t describe
So that’s why I’m pouring out my heart
On this page you’re reading now
What I have I give to you
I can’t keep it all inside
Like a river to the sea
His love is flowing out of me
the love of Christ I share with you
In this letter of love

In this letter of love I’m writing to you
I pray you’ll make peace with God
and start anew
If you would give him your heart
Your life would change
He’s reaching out
Yes, God has open arms for you…
In this letter of love

Dear friend, I’ve been thinking about you lately
Wondering how you’ve been getting by
Dear friend, for you I am praying
That you’ll accept the love of Christ

Dear friend
My friend

I'm still searching…..

Still searching for that boy who had the faith to move a mountain. Want the fire back.

Another question in me
One for the powers that be
It’s got me thrown and so
I Put on my poker face
And try to figure it out
This undeniable doubt
A common occurrence
Feeling so out of place

Guarded and cynical now
Can’t help but wondering how
My heart evolved into a
Rock beating inside of me
So I reel, such a stoic ordeal
Where’s that feeling that I don’t feel?

There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain
And like a child he would believe without a reason
Without a trace he disappeared into the void and
I’ve been searching for that missing person

Under a lavender moon
So many thoughts consume me
Who dimmed that glowing light
That once burned so bright in me
Is this a radical phase
A problematical age
That keeps me running
From all that I used to be

Is there a way to return
Is there a way to unlearn
That carnal knowledge
That’s chipping away at my soul
I’ve been gone too long
Will I ever find my way home?

There was a boy who had the faith to move a mountain
And like a child he would believe without a reason
Without a trace he disappeared into the void and
I’ve been searching for that missing person
He used to want to try to walk the straight and narrow
He had a fire and he could feel it in the marrow
It’s been a long time and I haven’t seen him lately but
I’ve been searching for that missing person

Yesterday's Letter

I wrote a letter yesterday
Just trying to explain
Couldn’t find the words to say
Cause you are so far away, so far away

I wrote a letter yesterday
It’s so hard for me to face
That it had to end this way
But my love will never change, will never change

When I search my soul to find the truth
About the love we shared
I wonder why you’re no longer here

You can just walk away
But I don’t feel the same
My heart still beats for you, craves for you, sings for you
And those feelings will never fade
I can’t hide my pain
I can never hide the way I feel for you

I’ve been talking in my sleep
About the way it used to be
Girl, I pray that you hear me
Then I’ll see you in my dreams
Oh, in my dreams

Well I can’t forget the words you said
To move on with my life
And no matter what I’ll carry you inside

You can just walk away
But I don’t feel the same
My heart still beats for you, breaks for you, sinks for you
And those feelings will never fade
I can’t hide my pain
I can never hide the way I feel for you

Sooner or later you’re gonna realize
That this type of love happens once in your life
So open your eyes girl
And see what we could be

You can just walk away
But I don’t feel the same
My heart still beats for you, breaks for you, sinks for you
And those feelings will never fade
I can’t hide my pain
I can never hide the way I feel for you

You can just walk away
But I don’t feel the same
My heart still beats for you, breaks for you, sinks for you
And those feelings will never fade
I can’t hide my pain
I can never hide the way I feel for you
