Well today is my lil bro's bday...and he is 8...I am so proud that he made it to 8 lol...as crazy as he is...he acts juss like me when I was lil...only crazier..so u can imagine what that is like. Anyways...today is my first day single...so I guess I am this new person right? I finished a song I was working on...I am gonna call it send me an angel...it is a song about the pains of a breakup...and the will to go on...it is pretty sweet I think. Anyways today I woke up...and I was smiling...and I don't know why but I kept hearing that Brad Paisley song I gotta bite...lol. Today I heard Usher's song Let It Burn on the radio with my sis...I already love that song...and it was perfect timing. I have realized...now that I am outta my relationship that I was in...I have to take all the memories, both good and bad, and let them burn.
From the ashes I will start anew, and the lyrics describe my feeling perfectly...every last word is how I feel...and as much as it may pain me later I have decided to let it burn...now I am a new person...better than before...I am happy...very happy to see my family...and my breakup is honestly the last thing on my mind today until juss now...I knew that I would have to make one last entry about it though...since it is the hot topic amongst my friends right now..some of them I didn't even tell and they knew...so now that I am single I dunno what to do...I have so much free time and all. I have started to lift weights again..and I am getting buffer...lol...in only like 3 days I can already tell a difference so I am happy...I am gonna be like built for the season or at least I hope to be. Like I said before...I live with no regrets, and while I may still be healing and not know it...I feel that I am a better person b/c of my experience...and alot wiser too. I rushed into things...and I shoulda given it more time, that was my fault, but unno I guess what it all comes down to is this...I was lost in a way...gone..empty...and I was looking for that special someone to fill my void...so my journey continues...and for now I am juss gonna let it burn. I am gonna put the chorus from the song I wrote on here and some other lyrics...peace!!
Here I stand a broken man,
Still holding out my calloused hand,
They say life is overrated,
My heart is numb and sedated,
The wind blows through this hole in me,
And I can still feel the sting,
Lord please...send me an angel.
[Intro]
I don't understand why
See it's burning me to hold onto this
I know this is something I gotta do
But that don't mean I want to
What I'm trying to say is that I-love-you I just
I feel like this is coming to an end
And it's better for me to let it go now than hold on and hurt you
I gotta let it burn
[Verse 1]
It's gonna burn for me to say this
But it's comin from my heart
It's been a long time coming
But we done been fell apart
Really wanna work this out
But I don't think you're gonna change
I do but you don't
Think it's best we go our separate ways
Tell me why I should stay in this relationship
When I'm hurting baby, I ain't happy baby
Plus there's so many other things I gotta deal with
I think that you should let it burn
[Chorus]
When your feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to
But you know gotta let it go cuz the party ain't jumpin' like it used to
Even though this might ruin you
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know it's best for yourself but you
Hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over
We know that it's through
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn
[Verse 2]
Sendin' pages I ain't supposed to
Got somebody here but I want you
Cause the feelin ain't the same by myself
Callin' her your name
Ladies tell me do you understand?
Now all my fellas do you feel my pain?
It's the way I feel
I know I made a mistake
Now it's too late
I know she ain't comin back
What I gotta do now
To get my shorty back
Ooo ooo ooo ooooh
Man I don't know what I'm gonna do
Without my booo
You've been gone for too long
It's been fifty-leven days, um-teen hours
Imma be burnin' till you return (let it burn)
[Chorus]
When your feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to
But you know gotta let it go cuz the party ain't jumpin' like it used to
Even though this might ruin you
Let it burn (let it burn, let it burn, you gon'learn)
Let it burn (gotta let it burn)
Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know its best for yourself but you
Hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over
We know that it's through
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn
[Bridge]
I'm twisted cuz one side of me is tellin' me that I need to move on
On the other side I wanna break down and cry (ooooh)
I'm twisted cuz one side of me is tellin' me that I need to move on
On the other side I wanna break down and cry (yeah)
[Breakdown]
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh
Ooh ooh oooh (can ya feel me burnin'?)
Ooh ooh ooh oooh ooh oooh
So many days, so many hours
I'm still burnin' till you return
[Chorus]
When your feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to
But you know gotta let it go cuz the party ain't jumpin' like it used to
Even though this might ruin you
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know it's best for yourself but you
Hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over
We know that it's through
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn
