Celebrate

Whitney Houston with Jordin Sparks

(Celebrate is the final song by the American diva. "Celebrate" is featured on the soundtrack of 'Sparkle').

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh

Everybody's been so uptight

And forgetting to live the life

Let all the problems get them down

Till they make you wanna shout

See everybody's been down in luck

Now finally things are looking up

The sun is chased all the rain away

No more obstacles in our away

It's time to celebrate (come on, yeah)

Come on and celebrate (that's what I want)

I wanna celebrate (because it's so right)

I celebrate you (I celebrate you, yeah)

There is oh so many of us (that underestimate the power of love)

So much hate going round and I've had enough

I've invited you for the love

Though we been going through changes

Just trying to make it from day to day

Tonight don't you worry about a thing

Just cast your cares away

It's time to celebrate (come on, yeah)

Come on and celebrate (it is what I want)

I wanna celebrate (it's time to celebrate)

I celebrate you, I celebrate you

It's time to celebrate (come on, come on)

Come on and celebrate (don't matter what color you are)

I wanna celebrate (tonight everyone is a star)

I celebrate you, I celebrate you

I'm gonna give you a reason

Why you should clap your hands and jump for joy

There's something we can believe in

Now that the rain is gone we're gonna dance in o a rainbow

It's time to celebrate (come on, yeah)

Come on and celebrate (time to celebrate)

I wanna celebrate (because it's so right)

I celebrate you (I celebrate you)

Celebrate me, celebrate me

It's time to celebrate (time to bring you and me)

Come on and celebrate (don't matter what color you are)

I wanna celebrate (tonight everyone is a star)

I celebrate you, you celebrate me

It's time to celebrate

Come on and celebrate

I wanna celebrate

I celebrate you, you celebrate me

It's time to celebrate

Come on and celebrate

I wanna celebrate

I celebrate you, you celebrate me

It's time to celebrate

Come on and celebrate

I wanna celebrate

I celebrate you, you celebrate me

Wings (are made to fly)

[All]

Mama told me not to waste my life

She said spread your wings my little butterfly

Don't let what they say keep you up at night

And if they give you sh ....

Then they can walk on by

My feet, feet can't touch the ground

And I can't hear a sound

But you just keep on running up your mouth, yeah

Walk, walk on over there

'Cause I'm too fly to care, oh yeah

[All]

Your words don't mean a thing

I'm not listening

Keep talking, all I know Is, yeah

(Chorus)

Mama told me not to waste my life

She said spread your wings my little butterfly

Don't let what they say keep you up at night

And they can't detain you

'Cause wings are made to fly

And we don't let nobody bring us down

No matter what you say it won't hurt me

Don't matter if I fall from the sky

These wings are made to fly

(Hey,hey,woo!)

I'm firing up on that runway

I know we're gonna get there someday

But we don't need no ready steady go, no

Talk, talk turns into air

And I don't even care, oh yeah

[All]

Your words don't mean a thing

I'm not listening

Keep talking, all I know is

(Chorus)

I don't need no one saying hey, hey, hey, hey

I don't hear no one saying hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

You better keep on walking

I don't wanna hear your talking, Boy

You better keep on walking

I don't wanna hear your talking, Boy

[All]

Your words don't mean a thing

I'm not listening

They're just like water

off my wings

(Chorus)

"Best Day Of My Life"

I had a dream so big and loud 
I jumped so high I touched the clouds 
Wo-o-o-o-o-oh [x2]
I stretched my hands out to the sky 
We danced with monsters through the night 
Wo-o-o-o-o-oh [x2]

I'm never gonna look back 
Woah, never gonna give it up 
No, please don't wake me now 

Oo-o-o-o-oo 
This is gonna be the best day of my li-ife 
My li-i-i-i-i-ife 
Oo-o-o-o-oo 
This is gonna be the best day of my li-ife 
My li-i-i-i-i-ife 

I howled at the moon with friends 
And then the sun came crashing in 
Wo-o-o-o-o-oh [x2]
But all the possibilities 
No limits just epiphanies 
Wo-o-o-o-o-oh [x2]

I'm never gonna look back 
Woah, never gonna give it up 
No, just don't wake me now 

I hear it calling outside my window 
I feel it in my soul (soul) 
The stars were burning so bright 
The sun was out 'til midnight 
I say we lose control (control) 

Everything is looking up, everybody up now 
This is gonna be the best day of my li-ife 
My li-i-i-i-i-ife.

Saturday Song

I know you're fed up
Like a lead up for us
All they talk about is
What is going down?
What's been messed up for us?
When I look around I see blue skies
I see butterflies for us

Listen to the sound and lose it
Its sweet music and dance with me
There is beauty in the world
So much beauty in the world
Always beauty in the world
So much beauty in the world
Shake your booty boys and girls for the beauty in the world
Pick your diamond pick your pearl there is beauty in the world
All together now

We need more lovin
We need more money, they say
Change is gonna come
Like the weather
They say forever
They say
When they're in between,
Notice the blue skies
Notice the butterflies
Notice me.

Stop and smell the flowers

And lose it, the sweet music and dance with me
There is beauty in the world
So much beauty in the world
Always beauty in the world
There is beauty in the world
Shake your booty boys and girls for the beauty in the world
Pick your diamond pick your pearl there is beauty in the world
All together now

Heya throw your hands up and holla
Throw your hands up and holla
When you don't know what to do
Don't know if you'll make it through
Remember God is giving you beauty in the world
So love (Beauty in the world)
Yeah love (Beauty in the world)

Hey baby when I'm looking at you
I know its fact is true
There is hope for love
There is beauty in the world
Hey baby
Hey baby when Im looking at you
I know this vibe is true
There's love
There's hope for love
There's beauty in the world

Song # 1...MY FAVORITE:

You can be amazing
You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug
You can be the outcast
Or be the backlash of somebody’s lack of love
Or you can start speaking up
Nothing’s gonna hurt you the way that words do
When they settle ‘neath your skin
Kept on the inside and no sunlight
Sometimes a shadow wins
But I wonder what would happen if you

Say what you wanna say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

With what you want to say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave

Everybody’s been there,
Everybody’s been stared down by the enemy
Fallen for the fear
And done some disappearing,
Bow down to the mighty
Don’t run, just stop holding your tongue
Maybe there’s a way out of the cage where you live
Maybe one of these days you can let the light in
Show me how big your brave is

Say what you wanna say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

With what you want to say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

And since your history of silence
Won’t do you any good,
Did you think it would?
Let your words be anything but empty
Why don’t you tell them the truth?

Say what you wanna say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

With what you want to say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
See you be brave
