If you don't like my fire, then don't come around. Cause I'm gonna burn one down.
It turns out that there is something more magnificent than nature. It's love.
Wish there was something that I could say or do, I can resist anything but the temptation from you. But I'd rather walk alone than chase you around, I'd rather fall myself then let you drag me on down.
With so many people to love in my life, why do I worry about one?
I knew a girl, her name was Truth. She was a terrible liar.
You're living life in real time, man, and we' ve got a good amount of work to do for each other. Hiding is not an option and you're going to step out and you're going to make mistakes.
A candle throws its light into the darkness, in a nasty world so shines a good deed. Make sure the fortune that you seek is the fortune that you need.
When you have everything, you have everything to lose.
My head works in music, so there's always music there.
I want to try to not be the child that had to go through too much too young. I want to be who I am now and not who I was then.
The very thing that drives you, can drive you insane Got a head full of thought crimes and a number with no name Got an eleventh hour Jesus and a mouth full of blame A casket lined with silver dollars and a number with no name.
Some things You have to let be lost Some battles, some battles You have to leave unfought. Then the truth just wastes away In all we dare not say. And in all we can't explain But I faithfully remain.
Genetics do play a role in how you consciously or subconsciously manifest your true self.
Could've sworn I heard you say Amen this morning, showing some kind of sign that you believe. Did it fall from your tongue without warning? Or just another trick to fall from your sleeve?
