School is kicking my butt. I do not understand why professors feel the need to assign IMPOSSIBLE amounts of reading! And just think... I have 2+ years left of this. yay.......
Recently i've been doing some "soul searching:" trying to figure out what I believe. I have always been so strong in my faith, but right now is a very confusing point in my life. I'm trying to learn new things with an open mind, but after thinking something for 19+ years, its quite difficult to rethink all I thought I knew. I am so lucky, however, because I have some amazing friends who understand me and where i'm coming from, and who just want me to be happy. I love them :)
This song has always had a special place in my heart, and recently I've began to love it even more. This is Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopez's Rap portion of TLC's 90s hit, Waterfalls.(Not to be with the lyrics I sang as a child "Go Go Jason Waterfall")... :)
I seen a rainbow yesterday, but too many storms have come and gone
Leaving a trace of not one God-given ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of gray
I pray, all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
And like his promise is true
Only my faith can undo the many chances I blew to bring my life to anew
Clear and blue and unconditional skies
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries
My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope with such an endurin' pain
That it keeps them in the pourin' rain
Who's to blame for tootin' caine into your own vein
What a shame, you shoot and aim for someone else's blame
You claim the insane
For this day and time
For fallin' prey to crime
I say the system's got you victim to your own mind
Dreams are hopeless aspirations in hopes of coming true
Believe in yourself, the rest is up to me and you
Until Next Time.
Robin! I'm so glad I found your blog. I have been looking for it. First of all, I love this song. Not only are we both 90's children, but the lyrics are great. Thanks for posting. I miss you, and I can't wait to get together with you and Sam and catch up, especially on soul searching. I love you!
