Such a good song...

SwiTcHfooT - MeanT to LivE

Fumbling his confidence
And wondering why the world has passed him by
Hoping that he's bid for more than arguments
And failed attempts to fly, fly

[Chorus]
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside
Somewhere we live inside
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
Somewhere we live inside

Dreaming about Providence
And whether mice or men have second tries
Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open
Maybe we're bent and broken, broken

[Chorus]

We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than this world's got to offer
We want more than the wars of our fathers
And everything inside screams for second life, yeah

We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live for so much more
Have we lost ourselves?
We were meant to live
We were meant to live

Awesome guitar in this song and it's stuck in my head so I had to post it up!

iNcubus - MegaLoMaNiAC

I hear you on the radio
You permeate my screen, its' unkind but
If I met you in a scissor fight
I'd cut off both your wings on principle alone
On principle alone

Hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean of yourself
Baby, just step down, step down, step down

If I were your appendages
I'd hold open your eyes
So you would see
That all of us are heaven sent
There was never meant to be only one
To be only one

Hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean of yourself
Baby, just step down, step down, step down

Step down, step down, ohhh step down

You're, you're, you're
You're no Jesus
You're no Elvis
You're no Jesus

You're no Jesus
You're no Elvis
You're no answer

Step down, step down, step down, step down, hey...

Hey megalomaniac
You're no Jesus
Yeah, you're no fucking Elvis
Wash your hands clean of yourself
Baby, just step down, step, step down

Step down
Ohh step down
Ohhh step down
Step down.....

Wow, haven't written in here since Panama City, and there's just way too much to even write about. Most of it I don't even remember! But I had a fucking awesome time...so good in fact that coming home to Gainesville was such a relief after the constant drunken craziness of Panama City. Sleeping in my own bed last night was probably the best sleep i've had in damn long time. But let's see, I can do a brief overview of my Spring Break. With our perfect Cali 21 fakes (made by the genius himself, lol) it was basically a week of being 21 and doing whatever the hell we wanted! First day, tits everywhere lol. Clubbin' every damn night, drunk every damn night. Got a tan and another tattoo...besides that, all I can say is: What happens in Panama City, stays in Panama City In the end we all had a damn good vacation and a lot of fun- no regrets!

Ack, hate not being able to sleep. Looks like i'm goin on 2 days again. I really gotta see if I can get some drugs perscribed for this insomnia! I suppose I could always take Dave Chappelle's advice and use the newest sleep aid: RIBS®, lol but I'm not sure if I want the side effects of barbeque stains and Mud Butt®, haha. But newayz had some fun this weekend. The concert was awesome! And the second band that played was damn good too so I definitely don't regret staying. So I played some poker tonight, Texas Hold of course...and I whooped some ass too lol. Went in with $10 bucks, left with $45 I'll probably be hittin' that up every Sunday too so there's some cash flow lol. Wow there's really nothing on TV this late/early...I just watched college gymnastics...lol. At least I don't have class today, that would suck even more. Hmm ok creativity has run out for the moment, back to informercials...

I'll definitely hit you up Jess, not sure when I'm comin'
down to T-Town next but we should hang out fo' sho

Ok time for new music, here's some One Drop for ya:

i finally made up my mind and decided to stay in gainesville for the concert this weekend (with a little help from michelle) now i just have to get joe to pay me back some money he owes me so i can pay for a ticket and supplies! besides that nothing much is goin on, it's been kinda slow around here lately. the chili peppers are still down there but i had to put up some new music too so here it is! listen to the words, its a really sad song...

the postal service - nothing better

will someone please call a surgeon
who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart
that your're deserting for better company
i can't accept that it's over...
and i will block the door like a goalie tending the net
in the third quarter of a tied-game rivalry

so just say how to make it right
and I swear i'll do my best to comply

tell me am i right to think that there could be nothing better
than making you my bride and slowly growing old together

i feel i must interject here you're getting carried away
feeling sorry for yourself
with these revisions and gaps in history
so let me help you remember.
i've made charts and graphs that should finally make it clear.
i've prepared a lecture on why i have to leave

so please back away and let me go
i can't my darling i love you so... oh oh

tell me am i right to think that there could be nothing better
than making you my bride and slowly growing old together
don't you feed me lines about some idealistic future
your heart won't heal right if you keep tearing out the sutures

i admit that i've made mistakes
and i swear i'll never wrong you again
you've got a lure i can't deny,
but you've had your chance so say goodbye
say goodbye

There is so much good music out there I am just discovering! I can't post songs up fast enough, lol. Check out Porcelain and Savior by the Peppers- pretty much the rest of Californication is awesome too. A band called Postal Service has some of the coolest music i've ever heard, check out the songs Brand New Colony and Natural Anthem especially. Hmm lets see, can't go wrong with Sublime of course, plus there's Ween, Phish, and Jamiroquai to fall back on. Definitely check out a band called One Drop (www.onedropmuzik.com). They're from Gainesville and probably my new favorite band. Some of the coolest beats and rhythm i've ever heard. In fact they're so good i'm still debating whether to hit up the night parade back in Tampa or just stay here at the G-spot to see them in concert... Well I guess thats all for now. I doubt anybody even reads this stuff but its your loss not mine!

Well I had a very good, very interesting weekend.
During this journey of mine I discovered how
amazing the Red Hot Chili Peppers really are.
Check it out and just get inside the music...

Road Trippin'

Road trippin’ with my two favorite allies
Fully loaded we got snacks and supplies
It’s time to leave this town
It’s time to steal away
Let’s go get lost
Anywhere in the u.s.a.
Let’s go get lost
Let’s go get lost

Blue you sit so pretty
West of the one
Sparkles light with yellow icing
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun

These smiling eyes are just a mirror for

So much as come before those battles lost and won
This life is shining more forever in the sun
Now let us check our heads
And let us check the surf
Staying high and dry’s
More trouble than it’s worth
In the sun

Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun

These smiling eyes are just a mirror for

In big sur we take some time to linger on
We three hunky dory’s got our snakefinger on
Now let us drink the stars
It’s time to steal away
Let’s go get lost
Right here in the u.s.a

Blue you sit so pretty
West of the one
Sparkles light with yellow icing
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun
Just a mirror for the sun

These smiling eyes are just a mirror for
These smiling eyes are just a mirror for
Your smiling eyes are just a mirror for

(right click cd cover and
Save Target As... to download)

What up peoples. Check out the new song. Its by Talib Kweli, a fuckin badass rapper from Brooklyn, formerly half of Black Star with fellow rapper Mos Def. Anywayz the song and the artist are both tight so be expecting more from Talib Kweli and Mos Def in the near future!

Talib Kweli - Get By

[Talib]
Yeah.. my Lord.. yeah

[Verse 1: Talib]
We sell, crack to our own out the back of our homes
We smell the musk at the dusk in the crack of the dawn
We go through "Epidodes II," like "Attack of the Clones"
Work 'til we break our back and you hear the crack of the bone
  To get by.. just to get by
  Just to get by, just to get by
We commute to computers
Spirits stay mute while you eagles spread rumors
We survivalists, turned to consumers
  Just to get by.. just to get by
  Just to get by, just to get by
Ask Him why some people got to live in a trailer, cuss like a sailor
I paint a picture with the pen like Norman Mailer
Me and Willa raised three daughters all by herself, with no help
I think about a struggle and I find the strength in myself
These words, melt in my mouth
They hot, like the jail cell in the South
Before my nigga Core bailed me out
  To get by.. just to get by
  Just to get by, just to get by
We do or die like Bed-Stuy through the red sky
with the window of the red eye
Let the lead fly, some G. Rap shit, "Livin' to Let Die"

[Chorus: Background singers]
This morning, I woke up
Feeling brand new and I jumped up
Feeling my highs, and my lows
In my soul, and my goals
Just to stop smokin, and stop drinkin
And I've been thinkin - I've got my reasons
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
Just to get (by), just to get (by)

[Talib and background singers]
(ba ba ba, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da badahh
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
Just to get (by by by by by by)
(ba ba ba, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da badahh
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
Just to get (by by by by by by)

[Verse 2: Talib]
We keeping it gangster say "fo shizzle", "fo sheezy" and "stayin crunk"
Its easy to pull a breezy, smoke trees, and we stay drunk
Yo, I activism - attackin the system, the blacks and latins in prison
Numbers of prison they victim black in the vision
Shit and all they got is rappin to listen to
I let them know we missin you, the love is unconditional
Even when the condition is critical, when the livin is miserable
Your position is pivotal, I ain't bullshittin you
  Now, why would I lie? Just to get by?
  Just to get by, we get fly
The TV got us reachin for stars
Not the ones between Venus and Mars, the ones that be readin for parts
Some people get breast enhancements and penis enlargers
Saturday sinners Sunday morning at the feet of the Father
They need somethin to rely on, we get high on all types of drug
When, all you really need is love
  To get by.. just to get by
  Just to get by, just to get by
Our parents sing like John Lennon, "Imagine all the people watch"
We rock like Paul McCartney from now until the last Beatle drop

[Chorus: Background singers]
This morning, I woke up
Feeling brand new and I jumped up
Feeling my high's, and my low's
In my soul, and my goals
Just to stop smoking, and stop drinking
And I've been thinking - I've got my reasons
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
Just to get (by), just to get (by)

[Talib: repeat 2X - with background singers]
Yoyoyo, yo
Some people cry, and some people try
Just to get by, for a piece of the pie
You love to eat and get high
We decieve when we lie, and we keepin it fly

Yoyoyo, yo
When, the people decide, to keep a disguise
Can't see they eyes, see the evil inside
But there's people you find
Strong or feeble in mind, I stay readin the signs

Changes

Hey everybody, just thought i'd change the song up a little. Been havin fits of insomnia again lately so I've had tons of time to completely revamp my xanga and website, so check them out. Let me know if ya like the new look! I picked this song cuz lately I dunno what's goin on in my head, I suppose i'm just goin through some changes...

3 Doors Down - Changes

I'm not supposed to be scared of anything
But I don't know where I am
I wish that I could move but I'm exhausted
And nobody understands
I'm tryin' hard to breathe now but there's no air in my lungs
There’s no one here to talk to
And the pain inside is making me numb

I try to hold this, under control
They can't help me
'Cause no one knows

Now I'm going through changes, changes
God I feel so frustrated lately
When I get suffocated save me
Now I'm going through changes, changes

I'm feelin' weak and weary walkin' through this world alone
Everything I say, every word of it, cuts me to the bone
I've got something to say but now I got nowhere to turn
It feels like I’ve been buried underneath all the weight of the world

I try to hold this, under control
They can't help me
‘Cause no one knows

Now I’m going through changes, changes
God I feel so frustrated lately
When I get suffocated save me
Now I’m going through changes, changes

I'm blind and shaking
Bound and breaking
I hope I make it through all these changes

Now I’m going through changes, changes
God I feel so frustrated lately
When I get suffocated save me
Now I’m falling apart now I feel it

But I’m going through changes, changes
God I feel so frustrated lately
And I get suffocated I hate this
But I’m going through changes, changes

P.O.D. - Find My Way

I don't know how to let you go
I've given to you all of me, all that will ever be
We share the same heart and soul
I want you to believe in me
See through my eyes and you will know
I'll take my chance that you will come home to me
Even if it takes some time for you to work it out
I'll be there

[Chorus]
I still got a ways to go
So far away from home
Inside I always knew
I'd find my way to you [repeat]

If I could be everything you want
If I could change everything that I have done
Only you know where I have gone
I want to prove I am worthy to be called yours
I need you more that I ever have
And I don't want to stay, try and find me if you can
If I get lost along the way, please don't forget me
Know that I'll be here

[Chorus]

I'll be there [x4]
I'll be there [x4]

[Chorus]

I'll be there [x4]
I'll be there [x4]
I'll find my way to you...
