  1. FROM FIRST TO LAST LYRICS

    "Emily"

    Smiles and her laughter
    It's the only thing that I've been waiting for a time
    Regardless of our distance and our hope...grows greater
    Trapped by pretty eyes and letters for all time
    ...the only thing that I've been waiting for.

    I hope it's something worth the waiting
    'Cause it's the only time that I ever feel real
    Thunder storms could never stop me
    'Cause there's no one in the world like Emily

    She's simple yet confusing
    Her sparkling eyes make me weak at my words, they tremble
    Days seem like years in this month of December
    The winter coldens me for I have yet to sleep
    And never will I give up trying 'cause you're everything to me

    I hope it's something worth the waiting
    It's the only time that I ever feel real
    'Cause thunder storms could never stop me
    'Cause there's no one in the world like Emily,
    There's no one in the world like Emily.



    i like the song because it reminds me of my life and my girlfrind emily,
    i dont like it cause it remindes me of her when im not with her and then i miss her

    To me this lyric are tell me about a persons relationship with thier mom. it tells me that the person and his mom did really get along when they were young but now that the person is older he relized how much she was do for him and he tahnks her.I like this song because it relates to my life a little bit. Back when i was young my mom use to tell me to stop running in the house and i just though she didn't want me to have any fun. but now i understand that she didn't want me to fall and get hurt.

    Friendship essay



    I found a song that makes me think of friendship. Makes me think of a fun time being out with my friends. This song called “The Rock show” by Blink 182. Every time I hear this song makes me think of summer time driving to the Vans warped tour 07. The song explains how a guy went to a rock show and meets a girl that he’ll never forget. Its kind of a love song but I don’t see that way I see it as being a guy who’s fallen in love with a girl and his best friends are there to see it thought. This most fits into my life because when ever I get a girlfriend I know am going to have my friends there to support me
    Blink 182 “The Rock Show”

    Hanging out behind the club on the weekends
    Acting stupid, getting drunk with my best friends
    I couldn't wait for the summer and the Warped Tour
    I remember it's the first time that i saw her...there

    She's getting kicked out of school cause she's failing
    I'm kinda nervous, cause I think all her friends hate me
    She's the one, she'll always be there
    She took my hand and that made it i swear

    Because I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
    She said "what?" and I told her that I didn't know
    She's so cool, gonna sneak in through her window
    Everything's better when she's around
    I can't wait til her parents go out of town
    I fell in love with the girl at the rock show

    When we said we were gonna move to Vegas
    I remember the look her mother gave us
    17 without a purpose or direction
    We don't owe anyone a fuckin explatation

    I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
    She said "what?" and I told her that I didn't know
    She's so cool, gonna sneak in through her window
    Everything's better when she's around
    I can't wait til her parents go out of town
    I fell in love with the girl at the rock show

    Black and white picture of her on my wall
    I waited for her call, she always kept me waiting
    And if I ever got another chance I'd still ask her to dance
    Because she kept me waiting

    I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
    She said "what?" and I told her that I didn't know
    She's so cool, gonna sneak in through her window
    Everything's better when she's around
    I can't wait til her parents go out of town
    I fell in love with the girl at the rock show

    with the girl at the rock show
    with the girl at the rock show
    (I'll never forget tonight)
    with the girl at the rock show......

  4. Dear mama

    When I was young, me and my mama had beef
    17 years old kicked out on tha streets
    though back in tha time, I never thought I'd see her face
    ain't a woman alive that can take my mommas place
    suspended from school, scared ta go home
    I was a fool with tha big boys breaking all tha rules
    shed tears with my baby sister
    over tha years we wuz poorer than tha other little kids
    and even though we had different dadies
    tha same drama when things went wrong we blamed mama
    I reminised on tha stress I caused, it wuz hell
    hugg'en on my mama from a jail cell
    and who'ed think in elementry, heeeey i'd see tha penatentry
    One day
    running from tha Police, that's right
    Momma catch me--put a whoop'en to my backside
    and even as a crack fiend mama,
    ya always was a black queen mama
    I finally understand for a woman
    it ain't easy--trying ta raise a man
    ya always wuz commited, a poor single mother on welfare,
    tell me how ya did it
    there's no way I can pay ya back
    but tha plan is ta show ya that I understand.
    you are appreciated......

    Laaaaady, don't cha know we luv ya
    Sweeeet Laaaady, place no one above ya
    Sweeeet Laaaady, don't cha know we luv ya

    Ain't nobody tell us it wuz fair
    no luv for my daddy, cause tha coward wuzn't there
    he passed away and I didn't cry
    cause my anger, wouldn't let me feel for a stranger
    they say i'm wrong and i'm heartless
    but all along I wuz looking for a father--he wuz gone
    I hung around with tha thug's and even though they sold drugs
    they showed a young brother luv
    I moved out and started really hang'in
    I needed money of my own so I started slang'in
    I ain't guilty cause, even though I sell rocks
    It feels good, putting money in your mailbox
    I love paying rent when tha rents due
    I hope ya got tha diamond necklace that I sent to you

    cause when I wuz low, you was there for me
    ya never left me alone, cause ya cared for me
    and I can see ya coming home after work late
    ya in tha kitchen trying ta fix us a hot plate
    just working with tha scraps you wuz given
    and mama made miracles every Thanksgiving
    but now tha road got rough, your alone
    trying ta raise two bad kids on your own
    and there's no way I can pay ya back
    but my plan is ta show ya that I understand
    you are appreciated.....

    Laaaaady, don't cha know we luv ya
    Sweeeet Laaaady, place no one above ya
    Sweeeet Laaaady, don't cha know we luv ya

    pour out some liquor and I remenise
    cause through tha drama, I can always depend on my mama
    and when it seems that i'm hopeless
    you say tha words that can get me back in focus
    when I wuz sick as a little kid
    ta keep me happy theres no limit to tha things ya did
    and all my childhood memories
    are full of all tha sweet things ya did for me
    and even though I act craaaazy
    I got ta thank tha Lord that ya maaaade me
    There are no words that can express how I feel
    Ya never kept a secret, always stayed real
    and I appreciate how ya raised me
    and all tha extra love that ya gave me
    I wish I could take tha pain away
    If you can make it through tha night, there's a brighter day
    everything'll be alright if ya hold on
    it's a strugle
    everyday gotta roll on
    and there's no way I can pay ya back
    but my plan is ta show ya that I understand
    you are appreciated.......

    Laaaaady, don't cha know we luv ya
    Sweeeet Laaaady, place no one above ya
    Sweeeet Laaaady, don't cha know we luv ya, Sweeeet Laaaady
