Believe Lyrics
Did you wake up today,
Did you find the strength to say,
The world is your own?
Did you look up today
Did you find the words to say,
The world is your own?
To be left here alone,
Your own way.
You've got to believe
You've got to believe
In your own way
(In your own way)
You've got to smile
You've got to be strong
You've got to believe
In your own way
Do you still feel sideways?
Well damn this backwards way
Way of thinking,
When I stop thinking
Your own way
You've got to believe
You've got to believe
In your own way
(In your own way)
You've got to smile
You've got to be strong
You've got to believe
In your own way
WAAAOOOOHHH
WAAAOOOOHHH WAY
You've got to believe (WOAH)
You've got to believe (WOAH)
In your own way (WAY)
(In your own way)
You've got to smile (WOAH)
You've got to be strong (WOAH)
You've got to believe
In your own way
You've got to believe
In your own way
You've got to believe
In your own way

These days there is a plethora of books, training programs and classes all designed and marketed to help you "feel good". Yet you can feel good anytime you choose, with or without training.
One of the ways to make happiness happen is to create an environment with constant reminders of what happiness is. Happiness is simple and it happens now, not later. Listen to songs like Feeling Good by Nina Simone regularly and happiness will begin to stir within you.

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

I love learning about the connections between today's music and music of previous generations. Today I Tweeted about how I was listening to Fire by The Prodigy and one of my music-loving friends told me that The Prodigy sampled Arthur Brown off the 1968 Crazy World of Arthur Brown album. Indeed, Arthur Brown appears to live in a crazy world and clearly, The Prodigy was inspired by it. Check out both videos for a little compare and contrast amongst genres and generations.
