All of the Lights [REMIX]

I was already in love with this song, the remix is pretty good in my opinion. Where'd Drake get his swag from?

Going Back in Time

Ever had a song that perfectly describes what you're going through? Down to every single line, every single word? I swear music isn't what it use to be. I believe if there were better music these days, a lot of things would be different. I'll be the first to admit that there's a lot of music that I can't relate to these days. Sure, "What's My Name?" by Rihanna is entertaining to sing along to, but how many of us can relate to that situation? What happened to the real love songs, about not being able to live without that person. Thinking about them and even still loving them after you have to let them? Maybe that's why no one believes in real love anymore, there's no one singing to us, testifying that it still exists.

The Past is the Best Teacher

Should have stuck to what I knew.
Should have stuck to living the way I was before I met you.

Lights dark.
Music blaring,
The beat our bodies were sharing.
My hips perfectly swaying,
As the song perfect for this moment is playing.

Should have held back like I wanted to.
Everything I'm doing is brand new.
This person isn't me.
Emotions all caught up,
This isn't reality.

Things shouldn't be this way,
But my heart was encouraged by the words you would say.
But in your actions is where the truth would lay.

In the beginning, quickly turned off.
Over time, slowly turned on.
Too deep in my feelings-
So far gone.

Deep breath,
Relax.
Just this once go against the facts.
Break all the rules.
This time let your heart choose.

My mind constantly warning me of the things you would do.
Put everything on the line.
Never once did I think the facts would hold true.

texting addiction, mental illness?

"Experts" are claiming that texting addiction is actually a mental illness. While this seems a little extreme, I can somewhat understand. Not that I'm addicted, but there truly are people who would go crazy without their cellphone. Do any of these symptoms apply to you? 
  • Excessive use (neglect day to day activities)
  • Withdrawal ( feeling depressed when not accessible)
  • Tolerance (over texting)
  • Negative repercussion ( social isolation)
Couldn't even imagine a world without the technology we have today.

West, Kanye ; All of the Lights


Am I the only one in love with the beginning of this song? The piano and violin make the perfect duet. Truly beautiful. & with Shawn Carter (Jay Z) as one of the executive producers, you can expect nothing but greatness.
