Favorite Quote:
Believe deep down in your heart that you are destined to do great things because you don't succeed by "It is what it is", you succeed by "It is what you make it".


Sitting in a lecture

Listens to conjecture

Giving the professor blank stares

Her name is all she wrote

When she should be taking notes

Cause her head ain't even close to there

Now she's staring through the glass

When her mind should be in class

And she's thinking she could fly

If only she could touch the sky

But she's stuck in this cage

Holding all of her rage

Gotta let go of the doubt

Gotta let it all out

Come on closse your eyes and feel it all again

It's gonna hurt cause you're reliving all the pain

You know you really want to let it all go

Write it in the sande, erase it all with a blow

If you tell your story maybe it will get better

Come on girl put your pen to the paper

Sitting in the bleachers

Listens to the preacher

Droning on about her sins

It's hard to stay awake

And be good to her faith

She wants to drown it in a bottle of gin

But how can she say a prayer
When her heart just isn't there

And she's thinking she could fly

If only she could touch the sky

But she's stuck in this cage

Holding all of her rage

Gotta let go of the doubt

Gotta let it all out

Come on close your eyes and feel it all again

It's gonna hurt cause you're reliving all the pain

You know you really want to let it all go

Write it in the sand, erase it all with a blow

If you tell your story maybe it will get better

Come on girl put your pen to the paper

Breathe in deep then go ahead and cry

Let it all go, all the hurt and scars and lies

You know you really want to let it all go

But anyone you tell will never leave it alone

Yeah to live you know you've got to let it all go

Write it in the sand, erase it all with a blow

If you tell your story maybe it will get better

Come on girl put your pen to the paper
