Feeling Good by Nina Simone Lyrics

Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin on by you know how I feel

(refrain:)
Its a new dawn
Its a new day
Its a new life
For me
And Im feeling good

Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the tree you know how I feel

(refrain)

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, dont you know
Butterflies all havin fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
Thats what I mean

And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

Sweet Disposition by The Temper Trap Lyrics

sweet disposition
never too soon
oh reckless abandon
like no one’s
watching you

a moment, a love
a dream, a laugh
a kiss, a cry
our rights, our wrongs
a moment, a love
a dream, a laugh
a moment, a love
a dream, a laugh

chorus
just stay there
cause i’ll be comin’ over
and while our bloods still young
it’s so young
it runs
and we won’t stop ’til it’s over
won’t stop to surrender

songs of desperation
I played them for you
a moment, a love
a dream, a laugh
a kiss, a cry
our rights, our wrongs
a moment, a love
a dream, a laugh
a moment, a love
a dream, a laugh

chorus:
just stay there
cause i’ll be comin over
and while our bloods still young
it’s so young
it runs
and we won’t stop til it’s over
won’t stop to surrender

a moment, a love
a dream, a laugh
a kiss, a cry
our rights, our wrongs (won’t stop til it’s over)
a moment, a love
a dream, a laugh
a kiss, a cry
our rights, our wrongs(won’t stop til it’s over)
a moment, a love
a dream, a laugh
a kiss, a cry
our rights, our wrongs (won’t stop til it’s over)
a moment, a love
a dream, a laugh
a moment, a love
a moment, a love (won’t stop to surrender)

Hip Hop Song ‘One’ by Zion I Promotes Unity and Meditation

This track is from Mind Over Matter by Zion I. Listen on YouTube.

Lyrics for One by Zion I

Planet Earth..

Are you there..?

Are you listening?

Are you prepared?

Yo, I see mothership connection
Deeper into spritual realms in a dimension
Leavin’ some battalion, descending from Orion
Travel ’til gone, hear the bust then go
To the next level brought by bass and treble dig with your shovel
Like a fossil find me subterranean, hard like a pebble
In a microscope he’s still dope, coat me with your resin
Analyze, suprise! secret weapon’s always hidden
I’m fittin’ to decompress, yes
Ride to the sur–face, think your best is good
I’m blowin’ heat up off my chest
Don’t need no bulletproof vest, drop the tech
I’m selectin’ my infinite power claim and reign through intellect
Fly on a jumbo jet to Tibet, meet my queen in Benign
All about livin’ dreams in a tropical scene
Doin’ my pimp walk leanin’ to the side
The sky is so wide, I’m feelin’ alright, let it ride

[Chorus]
Yo we travel through radio waves, roll and misbehave
We won’t stop until we get done
I sit and meditate, let vision’s formulate
like the Nazarite Sampson
We pray and generate power while cowards get devoured
You bakin’ deep in my dark sun

[Verse 2]
Dicin’(?) ice is the nicest
type or size of the knife is, sights like
Samurai souls: Man what the price of your life is?!
I rock for father lifers
Cat’s wit gats, deadly snipers
Little children ridin’ they bicycles
Guerrilla fightas to the rhyme writers
Raft Riders, and math reciters
Cat’s holdin’ skunk deep off in the blunt wit gingivitis
Ignite yo lighter we takin’ you higher, fire yo flame
We won’t retire no higher than I’d be a liar
We walk a live wire baggy attire
passin’ out flyer(s) tryin’ to get you to come to the gig
Just to admire the rhyme-icidal: it’s vital, ill-percussion is bustin’
K-G up on the AHH, 1-2, get busy cousin’ with the..
While we buggin’ and zonin’ until
Six in the mornin we will
Rock and shock elevate non-stop, yo

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Interplanetary vocabulary, peep hypothetical
Notions in an ocean, I’m coastin’ on every decible
Amp though, stay low, beneath your radar sensory
Prepositional phrases can jump me to infinity
I spin eternally, non-phsyically: invisibly
True reality is one that naked eye cannot see
In this galaxy I’m Pluto, tiny but I’m rude though
Flippin’ you up on your back, I attack like Judo *Whaaooo*
Break it down to the atom my long division
is vision of precision of my triple fly blast
A decision that the Lord maketh
Taketh away, it’s all the will
So I chill, crack my seventh seal, thankin’ you forreal
Cuz you feel “we” with purpose
Shinin’ in a light
We proceed to ignite the mic to shine bright, yo

[Chorus]

itunes_iconI was listening to XMU on Sirius/XM today and this song just caught my ear. I wanted to hear it again so why not share while I’m at it. (Listen on YouTube).

I love the unique mix, the simplicity and the lyrics, especially “don’t fight the darkness bring the light and darkness disappears.”

Song of the Week – 9-1-09 – The Uprising by Muse

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009

Watch/Listen on YouTube.

Will you be victorious or will the paranoia pull you in?

Lyrics for Uprising by Muse

The paranoia is in bloom, the PR
The transmissions will resume
They’ll try to push drugs
Keep us all dumbed down and hope that
We will never see the truth around

Another promise, another scene, another
A package not to keep us trapped in greed
With all the green belts wrapped around our minds
And endless red tape to keep the truth confined

They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious

Interchanging mind control
Come let the revolution take it’s toll if you could
Flick the switch and open your third eye, you’d see that
We should never be afraid to die

Rise up and take the power back, it’s time that
The fat cats had a heart attack, you know that
Their time is coming to an end
We have to unify and watch our flag ascend

They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious

They will not force us
They will stop degrading us
They will not control us
We will be victorious

Song of the Week – 8-4-09 – You Can Get It If You Really Want by Jimmy Cliff

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

Watch the video on YouTube.

Lyrics for You Can Get It If You Really Want

You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
But you must try, try and try
Try and try
you’ll succeed at last

I know it
Listen to me

Rome was not built in a day
Opposition will come your way
But the hotter the battle you see
It’s the sweeter the victory, now

You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
But you must try, try and try
Try and try, you’ll succeed at last

Persecution you must bear
Win or lose you’ve got to get your share
Got your mind set on a dream
You can get it, though hard it may seem now

You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
But you must try, try and try
Try and try
You’ll succeed at last

You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
You can get it if you really want
But you must try, try and try
Try and try
You’ll succeed at last

You can get it if you really want – I know it
You can get it if you really want – I show it
You can get it if you really want – So don’t give up now
You can get it if you really want – Keep on doing it
