Keep on Singin' My Song.....

After the ranting and raving in my last journal, I feel somewhat compelled to write another one. This one is more of what is in my soul today, as opposed to what is on my mind. I was on my way to school and I was playing my Christina Aguilera tape (yes, i still own tapes and i'm not ashamed of it ;) Anyway...the perfect song was on that would describe what took place for me this summer to allow me to be where i am now....lovin' the Lord and lovin' life and livin' each day to the fullest. Who said God doesn't perform miracles anymore? He sure did in my life........ I woke up this morning with a smile on my face and nobody's gonna bring me down today been feeling like nothing's been going my way lately but i decided right here, right now, that my outlook's gonna change That's why i'm gonna say goodbye to all the tears i've cried every time somebody hurt my pride Feelin' like they won't let me live life and take the time to look at what is mine Chorus: I believe they can take anything from me but they can't succeed in taking my inner peace from me, they can say all they wanna say about me, but i'm i'm gonna carry on, ( carry on) i'm gonna keep on (keep on) singin' my song I never wanna dwell on the pain again there's no use in relivin' how i hurt back then Rememberin' too well the hell i felt when i was runnin' out of faith Every step i'm 'bout to take well it's towards a better day cause i'm about to say farewell to every single lie and all the fears i've held too long inside every time i felt i couldn't try, all the negativity and strife 'Cause too long, I've been strugglin', couldn't go on but now i've found i'm feelin' strong and i'm moving on Chorus Every time I tried to be what they wanted from me It never came naturally, so i ended up in misery Was unable to see all the good around me, wasting so much energy on what they thought of me than simply just remembering to breathe I've learned i'm humanly unable to please everyone at the same time so now i find my peace of mind living one day at a time In the end I answer to one God, comes down to one Love till i get to heaven above I have made the decision never to give in till the day i die no matter what I'm gonna carry on, keep on, sinin' my song
