Jezebel

"Reach for the top and the sun is gonna shine. Every winter was a war she said I want to get what's mine."

Fear

"Blue is the color that she feels inside. Matador I can't hide my fear anymore."

Ain't Nobody Worryin'

"These are our precious times, deseases takin lives, medicaid ran out, showed me a weapon line. There's a mother on her own, tryin to beat the drout, tell me when will this end, all the sufferin, my faith is
runnin low, aint nobody worryin no more."

Don't Know Why

"Out across the endless sea I would die in ecstasy. But I'll be a bag of bones driving down the road along."

There's Hope

“A little was over rated, but a lot was a little too complicated.”

Bad Habits

"Lady when we lock it low we get together, it's an overdose.
I'm slipping, I'm here, I'm on my knees.
I feel my heart's about to explode."

Free as A Bird

“I’ve done all that I can do except let you fly away”

- Sometimes we just have to let people go. No one said it was going to be easy, but it is essential for your continuation in the long journey we call life. In life, we often find ourselves being the ones in control of our own actions and consequences. Always trying to be on top of things in order to maintain control, always making sure, always following procedures. But, in the midst of it all something happens, something outside the boundaries of your power and influence. Whatever you do, it's not enough and it never will be. These are the times when we shouldn't frown and look down, instead wear the gown and put on the crown. For you have done all that you can do except letting them fly away, leaving you free as the bird you always knew you were. Finally are the chains of sorrow and misery unleashed and your soul can now speak the true voice from within.

Brand New Day

"Some kind of magic happens late at night. When the moon smiles down at me and bathes me in its light."

I just wanna be successful

"In person, I'm everything and more. I'm everywhere these other n****s never been before. But inside, I'm treadin' waters, steady tryin' to swim to shore. I'm on a shoppin' spree to get whatever is in store."

Strenght, Courage & Wisdom

"Behind my pride there lives a me, that knows humility.
Inside my voice there is a soul, and in my soul there is a voice."

- We all know how it is to feel vulnerable in various situations. It feels strange and highly unfamiliar. We would rather take the other, longer road, instead of the one with high exposure. But it's time we took a deep look within ourselves and found that voice miss Arie is talking about. Let your guard down sometimes, but be sure you know who you let it down to. Pride doesn't have to mean you can't recognize humility in your own environment, instead let it become part of what you value the most. Don't forget about you, priorities are important and if you don't come on top of the list, who does and why? Let your own voice be heard for a change. Your voice is your instrument. Be sure to feed, nurture and look after it, for it is the key to unlock your soul.
