If ever lyrics summed up YOU..... What are they? Mine:
Back when I had a little I thought that I needed a lot A little was over rated, but a lot was a little too complicated You see-Zero didn't satisfy me A million didn't make me happy That's when I learned a lesson That it's all about your perception Hey-are you a papa or a superstar So you act, so you feel, so you are It ain't about the size of your car It's about the size of the faith in your heart There's hope It doesn't cost a thing to smile You don't have to pay to laugh You better thank God for that [repeat] There's hope [Verse 2:] Off in the back country of Brazil A met a young brotha that made me feel That I could accomplish anything. You see just like me he wanted to sing He had no windows and no doors He lived a simple life and was extremely poor On top of all of that he had no eye sight, but that didn't keep him from seein' the light He said, what's it like in the USA, and all I did was complain He said-livin' here is paridise He taught me paridise is in your mind You know that Every time I turn on the T.V. (There's Hope) Somebody's acting crazy (There's Hope) If you let it, it will drive you crazy (There's Hope) but I'm takin' back my power today (There's Hope) Gas prices they just keep on rising (There's Hope) The government they keep on lying but we gotta keep on surviving Keep living our truth and do the best we can do Stand up for your rights [echo] Keep shining your light [echo] And show the world your smile [echo] | |

I hate Lynard Skynard, but...
If I leave here tomorrow Would you still remember me For I must be traveling on now There's too many places I've got to see If I stay here with you girl Things just couldn't be the same 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now And this bird you cannot change Oh, and the bird you cannot change And this bird you cannot change Lord knows I can't change Bye-bye babe, it's been sweet, love 'Though this feeling I can't change But please don't take this so badly 'Cause Lord knows I'm to blame But if I stay here with you girl Things just couldn't be the same 'Cause I'm as free as a bird now And this bird you cannot change Oh, and the bird you cannot change And this bird you cannot change Lord knows I can't change Lord help me I can't change Oh No, I can't change | |

"Tiny Dancer" Elton John
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand Jesus freaks out in the street Handing tickets out for God Turning back she just laughs The boulevard is not that bad Piano man he makes his stand In the auditorium Looking on she sings the songs The words she knows, the tune she hums But oh how it feels so real Lying here with no one near Only you and you can't hear me When I say softly, slowly Hold me closer tiny dancer Count the headlights on the highway Lay me down in sheets of linen you had a busy day today Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand | |

Ex-Moderator | sometimes it's this:
I am not a pretty girl that is not what I do I ain't no damsel in distess and I don't need to be rescued so put me down punk maybe you'd prefer a maiden fair isn't there a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere I am not an angry girl but it seems like I've got everyone fooled every time I say something they find hard to hear they chalk it up to my anger and never to their own fear and imagine you're a girl just trying to finally come clean knowing full well they'd prefer you were dirty and smiling and I am sorry I am not a maiden fair and I am not a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere and generally my generation wouldn't be caught dead working for the man and generally I agree with them trouble is you gotta have youself an alternate plan and I have earned my disillusionment I have been working all of my life and I am a patriot I have been fighting the good fight and what if there are no damsels in distress what if I knew that and I called your bluff? don't you think every kitten figures out how to get down whether or not you ever show up I am not a pretty girl I don't want to be a pretty girl no I want to be more than a pretty girl but more often it's this: I'm a girl, and by me that's only great! I am proud that my silhouette is curvy, That I walk with a sweet and girlish gait With my hips kind of swivelly and swervy. I adore being dressed in something frilly When my date comes to get me at my place. Out I go with my Joe or John or Billy, Like a filly who is ready for the race! When I have a brand new hairdo With my eyelashes all in curl, I float as the clouds on air do, I enjoy being a girl! When men say I'm cute and funny And my teeth aren't teeth, but pearl, I just lap it up like honey I enjoy being a girl! I flip when a fellow sends me flowers, I drool over dresses made of lace, I talk on the telephone for hours With a pound and a half of cream upon my face! I'm strictly a female female And my future I hope will be In the home of a brave and free male Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me. When men say I'm sweet as candy As around in a dance we whirl, It goes to my head like brandy, I enjoy being a girl! When someone with eyes that smoulder Says he loves ev'ry silken curl That falls on my iv'ry shoulder, I enjoy being a girl! When I hear the compliment'ry whistle That greets my bikini by the sea, I turn and I glower and I bristle, But I happy to know the whistle's meant for me! I'm strictly a female female And my future I hope will be In the home of a brave and free male Who'll enjoy being a guy having a girl... like... me. |

You're so good to me I know but I can't change Tried to tell you But you look at me like maybe I'm an angel underneath Innocent and sweet Yesterday I cried Must have been relieved to see The softer side I can understand how you'd be so confused I don't envy you I'm a little bit of everything All rolled into one I'm a bitch, I'm a lover I'm a child, I'm a mother I'm a sinner, I'm a saint I do not feel ashamed I'm your hell, I'm your dream I'm nothing in between You know you wouldn't want it any other way So take me as I am This may mean You'll have to be a stronger man Rest assured that When I start to make you nervous And I'm going to extremes Tomorrow I will change And today won't mean a thing I'm a bitch, I'm a lover I'm a child, I'm a mother I'm a sinner, I'm a saint I do not feel ashamed I'm your hell, I'm your dream I'm nothing in between You know you wouldn't want it any other way Just when you think, you got me figured out The season's already changing I think it's cool, you do what you do And don't try to save me I'm a bitch, I'm a lover I'm a child, I'm a mother I'm a sinner, I'm a saint I do not feel ashamed I'm your hell, I'm your dream I'm nothing in between You know you wouldn't want it any other way I'm a bitch, I'm a tease I'm a goddess on my knees When you hurt, when you suffer I'm your angel undercover I've been numb, I'm revived Can't say I'm not alive You know I wouldn't want it any other way | |

I want to tell the people of Argentina
I've decided I should decline All the honors and titles you've pressed me to take For I'm contented Let me simply go on as the woman who brings her people To the heart of Peron Don't cry for me Argentina The truth is I shall not leave you Though it may get harder for you to see me I'm Argentina, and always will be Have I said too much? There's nothing more I can think of to say to you But all you have to do is look at me to know That every word is true http://elmadartista.tumblr.com/ http://twitter.com/madartista | |

Natural-Arrested Development
I'm checking you out, you're all alone No one is clocking you, but I'm scoping you Staring right thru you, staring into you Your beauty is endless and I'm hoping to explore Brothers may say you're ugly but I disagree But in a way that's fine with me 'cause I want to travel with you Travel in your mind 'cause you seem like a virgin Free as the wind blows, tall as a tree grows Wild like nature, yet calm as a field Hair is natural, lips are natural Face wins first place, you appeal to me, girl Let me ask you for some time for you to unwind together et cetera I have nothing but pure intentions Everything we'll be will be natural [CHORUS:] Natural (2x) I'd like to hold your waist as we chase The wind down the shores of a southern ocean Rub my fingers thru your hair Slowly rub and caress your forehead and bare our problems, as we lay on the bed called Earth Holding hands 'till we touch each and every finger as the ocean water wets us both in the center of the crossroads Spiritual bonds are connected...what...an erection Well...Let's drive to the city and walk among the lights of the city streets You're making me weak and it's scary 'cause you've played no games All you've been is very natural That's why I'm scared to fall in love with you [CHORUS] I wanna be natural (2x) I wanna be sleeping in you I wanna be inside you I wanna be sleeping deep in you (2x) I wanna be in you (2x) Natural (2x) Love your lips Love the way you do the things you say Natural Your lips | |

Thanx to Muse for the reminder of who I am
Video-India.Arie Sometimes I shave my legs and sometimes I don't Sometimes I comb my hair and sometimes I won't Depend on how the wind blows I might even paint my toes It really just depends on whatever feels good in my soul I'm not the average girl from your video and I ain't built like a supermodel But, I learned to love myself unconditionally Because I am a queen I'm not the average girl from your video My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes No matter what I'm wearing I will always be the india arie When I look in the mirror and the only one there is me Every freckle on my face is where it's supposed to be And I know our creator didn't make no mistakes on me My feet, my thighs, my lips, my eyes; I'm lovin' what I see I'm not the average girl from your video and I ain't built like a supermodel But, I learned to love myself unconditionally Because I am a queen I'm not the average girl from your video My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes No matter what I'm wearing I will always be the india arie Am I less of a lady if I don't wear pantyhose? My mama said a lady ain't what she wears but, what she knows But, I've drawn a conclusion, it's all an illusion, confusion's the name of the game A misconception, a vast deception Something's gotta change but,Don't be offended this is all my opinion ain't nothing that I'm sayin law This is a true confession of a life learned lesson I was sent here to share with y'all So get in where you fit in go on and shine Clear your mind, now's the time Put your salt on the shelf Go on and love yourself 'Cuz everything's gonna be all right I'm not the average girl from your video and I ain't built like a supermodel But, I Learned to love myself unconditionally Because I am a queen I'm not the average girl from your video My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes No matter what I'm wearing I will always be the india arie Keep your fancy drinks and your expensive minks I don't need that to have a good time Keep your expensive car and your caviar All I need is my guitar Keep your Kristal and your pistol I'd rather have a pretty piece of crystal Don't need your silicone I prefer my own What God gave me is just fine I'm not the average girl from your video and I ain't built like a supermodel But, I learned to love myself unconditionally Because I am a queen I'm not the average girl from your video My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes No matter what I'm wearing I will always be india arie | |

I Am Not My Hair-India.Arie
Little girl with the press and curl Age eight I got a Jheri curl Thirteen I got a relaxer I was a source of so much laughter At fifteen when it all broke off Eighteen and went all natural February two thousand and two I went and did What I had to do Because it was time to change my life To become the women that I am inside Ninety-seven dreadlock all gone I looked in the mirror For the first time and saw that HEY.... [Chorus] I am not my hair I am not this skin I am not your expectations no no I am not my hair I ma not this skin I am a soul that lives within [Talking:] What'd she do to her hair? I don't know it look crazy I like it. I might do that. Umm I wouldn't go that far. I know .. ha ha ha ha [Verse 2] Good hair means curls and waves Bad hair means you look like a slave At the turn of the century Its time for us to redefine who we be You can shave it off Like a South African beauty Or get in on lock Like Bob Marley You can rock it straight Like Oprah Winfrey If its not what's on your head Its what's underneath and say HEY.... [Chorus] [Bridge] (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Does the way I wear my hair make me a better person? (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Does the way I wear my hair make me a better friend? Oooh (Whoa, whoa, whoa) Does the way I wear my hair determine my integrity? (Whoa, whoa, whoa) I am expressing my creativity.. (Whoa, whoa, whoa) [Verse 3] Breast Cancer and Chemotherapy Took away her crown and glory She promised God if she was to survive She would enjoy everyday of her life ooh On national television Her diamond eyes are sparkling Bald headed like a full moon shining Singing out to the whole wide world like HEY... [Chorus 2x] [Ad lib] If I wanna shave it close Or if I wanna rock locks That don't take a bit away From the soul that I got Dat da da dat da [4x] If I wanna where it braided All down my back I don't see what wrong with that Dat da da dat da [4x] [Talking:] Is that India.Arie? Ooh look she cut her hair! I like that, its kinda PHAT I don't know if I could do it. But it looks sharp, it looks nice on her She got a nice shaped head She got an apple head I know right? It's perfect. | |

I've had so many lives Since I was a child And I realise How many times I've died I'm not that kind of guy Sometimes I feel shy I think I can fly Closer to the sky No one's telling you how to live your life But it's a setup until you're fed up This world is not so kind People trap your mind It's so hard to find Someone to admire I, I sleep much better at night I feel closer to the Light Now I'm gonna try To improve my life No one's telling you how to live your life But it's a setup until you're fed up It's no good when you're misunderstood But why should I care What the world thinks of me Won't let a stranger Give me a social disease Nobody, nobody knows me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Like you know me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Like you know me No one's telling you how to live my life But it's a setup, and I'm just fed up It's no good when you're misunderstood But why should I care What the world thinks of me Won't let a stranger Give me a social disease I don't want no lies I don't watch TV I don't waste my time Won't read a magazine I don't want no lies I don't watch TV I don't waste my time Won't read a magazine I, I sleep much better at night I feel closer to the light Now I'm gonna try To improve my life Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody knows me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Like you know me *Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Like, like you know me Like you know me Like you know me Like you know me Like you know me *(Its no fun but the damage is done Don't want your social disease Don't want your social disease) **Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Like you know me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Don't want your social disease **(I don't want no lies I don't watch TV I don't waste my time Won't read a magazine I don't want no lies I don't watch TV Won't read a magazine) http://elmadartista.tumblr.com/ http://twitter.com/madartista | |
