It's a New Day

Here's the next song to add to your playlist:

I went asleep last night 
Tired from the fight 
I've been fighting for tomorrow 
All my life 
Yea I woke up this morning 
Feeling brand new 
'Cause the dreams that I've been dreaming 
Has finally came true 

(CHORUS) 
It's a new day 
It's a new day 
It's a new day 
It's a new day 
It's a new day 

It's been a long time coming 
Up the mountain kept runnin' 
Souls of freedom kept hummin' 
Channeling Harriet Tubman 

Kennedy, Lincoln, and King 
We gotta maninvest in that dream 
It feels like we're swimming upstream 
It feels like we're stuck inbetween 
A rock and a hard place, 
We've been through the heartaches 
And lived through the darkest days 

If you and I made it this far, 
Well then hey, we can make it all the way 
And they said no we can't 
And we said yes we can 
Remember it's you and me together 

(CHORUS)

It's been a long time waitin' 
Waiting for this moment 
It's been a long time praying 
Praying for this moment 

We hope for this moment 
And now that we own it 
For life I ma hold it 
And I won’t let it go 

It's for fathers, our brothers, 
Our friends who fought for freedom 
Our sisters, our mothers, 
Who died for us to be in this moment 

Stop and cherish this moment 
Stop and cherish this time 

It's time for unity 
For us and we 
That's you and me together 

I woke up this morning 
Feeling brand new 
'Cause the dreams that I've been dreaming 
Have finally came true 
Yea, I woke up this morning 
Feeling alright 

'Cause we weren't fighting for nothing 
And the soldiers weren't fighting 
For nothing 
No, Martin wasn't dreaming for nothing 
And Lincoln didn't change it for nothing 
And children weren't crying for nothing

"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 #2

SONG #2: 

Well, I wear my clothes like this because I can
And I wear my hair like this because I can
And I walk around like this because I can
and I do my thing like this cuz its who I am.

And if you're expecting me, to give you an apology for being nothing that you're used to
Well go right on ahead and wait, hold your breath and concentrate. 
Keep holding 'til your face turns blue.

My road, it ain't your road but trust I know (I know just where I'm going)
My flow, it ain't your flow but trust I know (I know just how I'm flowing)
I'ma do my thing (I'ma do my thing)
Please feel free to hate and complain
I'ma do my thing
Say what you like because this one ain't gonna change
I'ma do my thing


{janelle}
I can't wear my clothes like you, because I'm not
I can't do my hair like you, because I'm not
I can't walk around like you, because I'm not
I can't do my thing like you, well that just ain't hot

And if you're expecting me, to give you an apology for being nothing like you're used to
Well go right on ahead and wait, hold your breath and concentrate. 
Keep holding 'til your face turns blue.

My road, it ain't your road but trust I know (I know just where I'm going)
My flow, it aint your flow but trust I know (I know just how I'm flowing)
I'ma do my thing (I'ma do my thing)
So please feel free to hate and complain
I'ma do my thing
And say what you like because this one ain't gonna change
I'ma do my thing


You don't know where I'm going, and so you think I'm lost
I ain't on your page ok, so to you that means I'm off.
When I dance, I dance to the beat of a drummer that you can't hear and can't see
So if I look offbeat to you, well the problem must be you, not me
Irregular but never irrelevant, unusual but never uncool.
You're not cut from my cloth so you don't get me. Well, I don't get you.
Either a believer of the fact that unique equals love.
Am I going to fast for you? Open your mind and speed up.


My road, it ain't your road but trust I know (I know just where I'm going)
My flow, it ain't your flow but trust I know (I know just how I'm flowing)
I'ma do my thing (I'ma do my thing)
So please feel free to hate and complain
I'ma do my thing
And say what you like because this one ain't gonna change
I'ma do my thing
