Express yourself with lyrics

Risin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance
Now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

So many times, it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

[Chorus]
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Risin' up to the challenge
Of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the
Eye of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds
Still we take to the street
For the kill with the skill to survive

[Chorus]

Risin' up straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance
Now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive

[Chorus]

The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger

Survivor - Eye Of The Tiger Lyrics | MetroLyrics

"Roar"

I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath
Scared to rock the boat and make a mess
So I sat quietly, agree politely
I guess that I forgot I had a choice
I let you push me past the breaking point
I stood for nothing, so I fell for everything

You held me down, but I got up (HEY!)
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder gonna shake the ground
You held me down, but I got up (HEY!)
Get ready 'cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now

[Chorus:]
I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter, dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar

Now I'm floating like a butterfly
Stinging like a bee I earned my stripes
I went from zero, to my own hero

You held me down, but I got up (HEY!)
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder gonna shake the ground
You held me down, but I got up (HEY!)
Get ready 'cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now

[Chorus:]
I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter, dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
(You're gonna hear me roar)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
(You'll hear me roar)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar...

Ro-oar, ro-oar, ro-oar, ro-oar, ro-oar

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter, dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
(You're gonna hear me roar)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
(You'll hear me roar)
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar...

Katy Perry - Roar



#Love Wins The Eye of Tiger......
followed by a close up picture of a tiger's eye....the color of the tiger's eye is every possible color in the visible and non-visible spectrum.

I don't know if the lyrics of those two songs describe ways in which I personally would like the express Mi, myself exactly........but I really wanted to post them anyway due to recent certain happenings concerning marriage and religion.

"Firework"

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?

Do you ever feel already buried deep six feet under?
Screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you?

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby, you're the eye of the tiger
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

You don't have to feel like a wasted space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
And when it's time you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby, you're a firework butterfly
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through-ough-ough

'Cause, baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colours burst
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

 

My anaconda don't want none unless you got buns hun.

 

I spoke to God today, and she said that she's ashamed.
What have I become, what have I done?
I spoke to the Devil today, and he swears he's not to blame.
And I understood, cause I feel the same.

Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I'm no hero, and I'm not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, righteous side of hell.

I heard from God today, and she sounded just like me.
What have I done, and who have I become.
I saw the Devil today, and he looked a lot like me.
I looked away, I turned away!

Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I'm no hero, and I'm not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.

I'm not defending, downward descending,
Falling further and further away!
Getting closer every day!

I'm getting closer every day, to the end.
To the end, the end, the end,
I'm getting closer every day!

Arms wide open, I stand alone.
I'm no hero, and I'm not made of stone.
Right or wrong, I can hardly tell.
I'm on the wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side of hell.
The wrong side of heaven, and the righteous side, the righteous side of hell.

 

It's not that easy being green;
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves.
When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold-
or something much more colorful like that.

It's not easy being green.
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things.
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water-
or stars in the sky.

But green's the color of Spring.
And green can be cool and friendly-like.
And green can be big like a mountain, or important like a river, or tall like a tree.

When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder? Why Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be.

Being Green​

 

I'm the next step
Waiting in the wings
I'm an animal
Trapped in your hot car

I am all the days
That you choose to ignore

You are all I need
Youre all I need
I'm in the middle of your picture
Lying in the reeds

I am a moth
Who just wants to share your light
I'm just an insect
Trying to get out of the night

I only stick with you
Because there are no others

You are all I need
Youre all I need
I'm in the middle of your picture
Lying in the reeds

It's all wrong, it's all right
It's all wrong, it's all right
It's all wrong, it's all right
It's all wrong, it's all right
It's all, it's all

Radiohead - "All I Need"

 

:roflmao:
This made my day LOL!

 

From the pain of the sun, to the darkness we run
I give you oceans of time, every curse of my crime
Let this unstoppable sin make you stronger within
In the black night I seal your future

 

Scar tissue that I wish you saw.
Sarcastic Mr Know-It-All

 

Walks on his own, with thoughts he can't help thinking.

 

"Sunshine on my window makes me happy like I should be, Outside all around me! Really sleazy, then it hits me! Don't tell me you can't see what it means to me, Leave me"

I could wait a thousand hours
Stay the same in sun and showers
Pick apart a hundred flowers
Just to be quiet- Quiet by Lights.




So here's my heart, and here's my mouth
And I can't help if things come out
'Cause there are words I want to shout
But maybe I'll stay low- Quiet by Lights.

 

I wear my heart on my sleeve
Don't act like that's a disease
Need y'all to bear with me please
I just say what I see
We all just chasing a dream
In the land of the free
While we paying a fee
To stay on this concrete
Well, I don't know the price of your roof
But the first of the month we all pay our dues
When the rain falls it don't rain on a few
When the sun shine it don't shine just on you

I don't know the monsters you knew
But I'm trying to forget the ones I met too
Baby, you could help me
Baby, I could help you

You look at me and you see what I see
Because you're looking in the mirror
When you're with me there's no use in hiding
Because you're looking in the mirror
Baby, baby, baby, don't look away
Because you're looking in the mirror
'Cause maybe, maybe, maybe we're just the same
Because you're looking in the mirror

We're all crossing paths
For a reason I know that
Hoping just to share some laughs
Avoid the broken glass
Have I met you in the past
In a life that I lived last
You know they go too fast
God knows they go too fast

Well, I don't know the monsters you knew
But I'm trying to forget the ones I met too
Baby you could help me
Baby I'm a help you

You look at me and you see what I see
Because you're looking in the mirror
When you're with me there's no use in hiding
Because you're looking in the mirror
Baby, baby, baby, don't look away
Because you're looking in the mirror
'Cause maybe, maybe, maybe we're just the same
Because you're looking in the mirror

Baby, baby
Baby, baby
It's the same pain
And when I wake
I hear the same wave
Of sirens coming down my way
And I'll never try to leave you
Baby, you're the one I cling to
Baby, don't look away
Baby, don't look away
I am you​

"Mirror" by Kat Dahlia

 

For this one time, one time
Let my body do what it feels
For this one time, one time
Let this fantasy become real
Because I am not afraid to let you see this side of me

Sesame Street - I Love Trash

Oh, I love trash!
Anything dirty or dingy or dusty
Anything ragged or rotten or rusty
Yes, I love trash

I have here a sneaker that's tattered and worn
It's all full of holes and the laces are torn
A gift from my mother the day I was born
I love it because it's trash

Oh, I love trash!
Anything dirty or dingy or dusty
Anything ragged or rotten or rusty
Yes, I love trash

I have here some newspaper thirteen months old
I wrapped fish inside it; it's smelly and cold
But I wouldn't trade it for a big pot o' gold!
I love it because it's trash

Oh, I love trash!
Anything dirty or dingy or dusty
Anything ragged or rotten or rusty
Yes, I love trash

I've a clock that won't work
And an old telephone
A broken umbrella, a rusty trombone
And I am delighted to call them my own!
I love them because they're trash

Oh, I love trash!
Anything dirty or dingy or dusty
Anything ragged or rotten or rusty
Yes, I love, I love, I love trash!

 

Looking up high, found a steel tower
Wondering how I would feel,
if I fall down
Was it a dream?
I saw deep red

Chasing, for what's far ahead, always yearning
Don't know why but the beauty
I really want may seem to be
awkward to someone's eyes

 

If you ask me who I am, what is my vision, and do I have a plan,
Where is my strength, have I nothing to say?
I hear the words in my head, but I push them away.

'Cause I stand for the power to change, I live for the perfect day
I love 'till it hurts like crazy, I hope for a hero to save me
I stand for the strange and lonely, I believe there's a better place,
I don't know if the sky is heaven, but I pray anyway.

And I don't know what tomorrow brings, the road less travelled: will it set us free?
'Cause we're taking it slow, these tiny legacies
I don't try and change the world, but what will you make of me?

'Cause I stand for the power to change, I live for the perfect day,
I love 'till it hurts like crazy, I hope for a hero to save me
I stand for the strange and lonely, I believe there's a better place,
I don't know if the sky is heaven, but I pray anyway.

With the slightest of breezes, we fall just like leaves, as the rain washes us from the ground
We forget who we are, we can't see in the dark, and we quickly get lost in the crowd

I stand for the power to change, I live for the perfect day,
I love 'till it hurts like crazy, I hope for a hero to save me
I stand for the power to change, I live for the perfect day,
I love 'till it hurts like crazy, I hope for a hero to save me
I stand for the strange and lonely, I believe there's a better place,
I don't know if the sky is heaven, but I pray anyway.

- I stand, Idina Menzel
