I was catching up on blogs and visited JJ's blog from: http://momojj-myjourneytoanewme.blogspot.com/ and saw where she was asking about theme songs and if anyone had one. That just reminded me that yes I do have a theme song and it has fit for everything that I have dealt with in my life, no matter what.... Having a natural father that was a mean controlling man, the death of my natural mother at age ten, my little brother who is just 11 months younger than me, hit by a car and changed forever when he was 11, being sent to a children's home to grow up, being any overweight teen, having a very difficult time in nursing school, not being able to get pregnant, a divorce, and now having a life changing surgery. This song says it all.
Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
Stand up and be counted
Don't be ashamed to cry
You gotta be
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
You gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day
Herald what your mother said
Readin' the books your father read
Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time
Some may have more cash than you
Others take a different view
My oh my heh, hey
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
You gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day
Don't ask no questions, it goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace
The world keeps on spinning
You can't stop it, if you try to
This time it's danger staring you in the face
Oh oh oh Remember
Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
My oh my heh, hey, hey
You gotta be
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
You gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold
You gotta be wiser, you gotta be hard
You gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm
You gotta stay together
What keeps you going?
You have overcome so much. That song is a great theme song for you. I love that song too.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work sweetie. Nothing can stop you now.
I am so sorry for your past and what you've been through hon. You have overcome so much in your life and I'm so proud to see that song is your theme. It's really an inspirational song.
ReplyDeleteI saw Des'ree inconcert qith Seal back in the mid 1990's. I always loved that song. You picked a good one! Mine is "I will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor
