Angel Haze Ft. Sia - Battle Cry

 

"I came from the bottom, now everybody's watchin', I said it was my time, now I'm who everybody's clockin', And I'm just out here sprintin', I'm runnin' right through my vision, 'm trying to outrun my past, but still trying to defeat my limits, Cause you only get one moment in this life to be great, And you can give it your all despite what it takes. "So now I spit it for people who say their cords missing, Inspire life into anybody that's forfeiting, Cause it's easy to keep pretending that there's nothing wrong, But it's harder to keep your head up and be fucking strong"  --  Angel Haze

Song Lyrics:

Money cannot buy

All the love that's here tonight

All the love that's here tonight

Ooh ooh

There's just you and I

So lift your hands toward the sky

Lift your hands toward the sky

Ooh ooh

Chorus

It seems like yesterday that I was nothin'

Then all of a sudden I'm a volcanic eruption

Then all of a sudden it's like spontaneous combustion

And I'm all up in your face yellin', "Bitch, you can't tell me nothin'"

'Cause I came from the bottom, now everybody's watchin'

I said it was my time, now I'm who everybody's glockin'

And I'm just out here sprintin', I'm runnin' right through my vision

I'm trying to outrun my past, but still trying to defeat my limits

'Cause you only get one moment in this life to be great

And you give it your all despite what it takes

And you never let 'em kill you, you take everything they give you

And throw it right fuckin' at 'em and tell 'em it doesn't build you

And no it don't ever break you, and no it can't overtake you

Life's like a bed of roses, you take the thorns and you make do

Sometimes you have to hurt for the 'cause to be reached

But one day you'll be stronger then all that you beat

And you can say

Money cannot buy

All the love that's here tonight

All the love that's here tonight

Ooh ooh

There's just you and I

So lift your hands toward the sky

Lift your hands toward the sky

Ooh ooh

I woke up one Sunday morning, stopped believing in Jesus

Stopped believing in churches, I stopped believing in preachers

I realized I was a teacher, not just one of the heathens

I'm born to destroy the fallacies, stop creating believers

Start creating the leaders, tell 'em who they should follow

Nobody but themselves, especially if they hollow

Especially when they empty and death reserves for fulfillment

You the only person alive who holds the key to your healin'

So you take it and you run with it

And keep going even when your suns hidden

Because the time we spend in darkness when the rain comes

Is where we often find the light soon as the pain's done

There ain't material things in the world

That can change the fact that you feel lonely

Despite the fact that it gets hard, you take it all and you still go

Take the sun and you still grow, lose the light and you still glow

I been there, I'm still here and I know how you feel, so

Chorus

Money cannot buy

All the love that's here tonight

All the love that's here tonight

Ooh ooh

There's just you and I

So lift your hands toward the sky

Lift your hands toward the sky

Ooh ooh

We don't wanna fight

So sing with me our battle cry

Sing with me our battle cry

Ooh ooh

Money cannot buy

All the love that's here tonight

All the love that's here tonight

Ooh ooh

It's hard to explain my way of living to people who never lived it

A minute in my position filled with my opposition

That anybody not different fighting to stay the same

I got lives in my hands and I'm fighting to make 'em change

Couldn't accept responsibility, find somebody to blame

The emotions that I'm harboring 'bout to drive me insane

Tried to say f*ck everything, but I ain't have the heart to

Rarely had the heart to do a lot of things I ought to

So now I spit it for people who say their cords missing

Inspire life into anybody that's forfeiting

'Cause it's easy to keep pretending that there's nothing wrong

But it's harder to keep your head up and be fucking strong

So, now they telling me "go, Haze, they can't stop you

Heavyweight flow, if they can't lift you then they can't top you,

The pinnacle, if they can't reach you then they can't stop you

Man, they can't do anything that you're about to!

Chorus

Money cannot buy

All the love that's here tonight

All the love that's here tonight

Ooh ooh

There's just you and I

So lift your hands toward the sky

Lift your hands toward the sky

Ooh ooh

We don't wanna fight

So sing with me our battle cry

Sing with me our battle cry

Ooh ooh

Money cannot buy

All the love that's here tonight

All the love that's here tonight

Dax - Depression

#MentalHealthExposed. Dax's powerful lyrics shine the light on mental health and how hard it can be to express to others. "I realized the greatest lie I ever told was the smile I faked. Sometimes in life it’s easier to just throw one on then having to explain to people why you feel the way you do..... With our God, you can beat all the odds Keep your faith and you'll never be lost and say."

Song Lyrics:

[Chorus]

I can't find myself, mm

I get lost inside my brain

I think I might need help, mm

But I pushed all of 'em away

I took the cards they dealt

And there's nothin' I can change

So when I'm by myself

I just pray for brighter days

[Verse 1]

Sometimes I sit and I reminisce 'bout the good times

Wish I could get those back

I keep on runnin' these races that go in my mind

Then they go on these tracks

I'm not ready to erase all my memories, mm

I fight depression and I let it get the best of me

Now thеre's nowhere to run, nowhеre to go

Look around, it's liquor bottles all on the floor

Fillin' up the space inside my heart and my home

Drownin' out these thoughts until they leave me alone

[Chorus]

I can't find myself, mm

I get lost inside my brain

I think I might need help, mm

But I pushed all of 'em away

I took the cards they dealt

And there's nothin' I can change

So when I'm by myself

I just pray for brighter days

[Verse 2]

These thoughts are drainin' all my energy, mm I try to tell 'em to God, they said I'm goin' insane

And then they recommended therapy, mm

And to go and talk to a man who's gettin' paid to explain

He started sayin' that the chemical imbalance is the reason that my brain

Ain't connectin' to accomplishments associated with movin' on

In life and past the things that my heart cannot contain

So the happiness won't sustain

Then he read me my options, mm

And it'll numb how I feel (Numb how I feel, numb how I feel)

[Chorus]

I can't find myself, mm (Can't find myself)

I get lost inside my brain

I think I might need help, mm (Think I might need help)

But I pushed all of 'em away

I took the cards they dealt (Took the cards they dealt)

And there's nothin' I can change

So when I'm by myself (When I'm by myself)

I just pray for brighter days

[Bridge]

Should I drown all these thoughts, or should I leave 'em to float?

I got all of my flaws livin' inside of this boat

I've been anchored in pain, the weight is makin' me choke

It's gettin' harder to breathe, it's pullin' right at my throat

I've been hopin' for change, but don't know how to restart

They say you ain't a man when you exposin' your heart,

Then they say you insane until it tears you apart.

And then it cuts you so deep and they can tell by the scars

We can only see change when we accept who we are

Try to run from the shame and you will never get far

Don't you bottle the pain or live your life in the dark

You're meant to break from those chains and shine as bright as a star

Don't you ever tell yourself that your depression

Is the reason you won't make it or that happiness is not in your cards

With our God, you can beat all the odds Keep your faith and you'll never be lost and say

[Chorus]

I can't find myself, mm

I get lost inside my brain

I think I might need help, mm (I think I might need help)

But I pushed all of 'em away (I pushed all of them away)

I took the cards they dealt

And there's nothin' I can change

So when I'm by myself

I just pray for brighter days

Self Love - Queen Naija

 

It starts with self positivity, put self love first and always know your worth!**  Loving yourself is the best love!😃🏆

Song Lyrics:

I gave all of my love away
I thought that maybe it would bring some good to me
I sacrificed for those who wouldn't do the same
And it really caused me a lot of pain
And I realized that there was a change in me

Smiles started fadin' away and my skies were grey
Tried to please everybody around me, it consumed my days
I learned my lesson
Not to neglect the very one who I'm supposed to love on

Me, can't nobody love me like me
Can't no one fulfill all my needs like me
Gotta get back to me
Fallin' in love again but this time, I'm officially lovin' me

I made a vow that I'd put me first (I'd put me first)
No longer compromisin' my worth
And that goes for anyone without good intentions
One, two many times, I've put my heart on the line
And I noticed

Smiles started fadin' away and my skies were grey
Tried to please everybody around me, it consumed my days
I learned my lesson
Not to neglect the very one who I'm supposed to love on

Me, can't nobody love me like me
Can't no one fulfill all my needs like me
Gotta get back to me
Fallin' in love again but this time, I'm officially lovin' me

Oh, I gotta love me, yeah, yeah
Oh, I gotta love me, yeah, yeah

'Cause I love me enough for all of y'all (Uh, ayo)

[Verse 1: Nicki Minaj & Monica]

I used to think my happiness depended on a man (A man)

Diamond on the ring finger blingin' on my hand (My hand)

Sativa or Indica, it don't matter what the strain

The worst drug of all, the addiction to a man (A man, ooh)

Insecurе, real jealous, bitter littlе man (A man)

Cursin', beat a woman, but he never hit a man (A man)

Man, yeah, you such a man, damn (A man)

Like Tina in a limo, well, bitch had to go ham, scram (Aah)

Fuck I look like? (Brr) I wish I would like (Yeah)

Wasted a couple years, now I'm good like (Yeah)

It's worth the pain, I'ma still have a good life

Still be a great mother, still be a good wife

And I don't care how the media perceives me

I just do it for the girls who ain't never had it easy (Ooh)

The woman who conceived me, the girl in the mirror (Oh)

That just cries when she sees me, easy, I'm breezy

Finger on the trigger yellin', "Squeeze me, relieve me" (Oh)

I thought that everyone who loved me would leave me

But, fuck that, I love this new chick named Me-me (I love)

First things first, all my girls, know your worth

Self-love is the greatest love on Earth (Yeah)

Cry your eyes out, get it out, it's the worst

But love don't hurt, no

[Pre-Chorus: Monica]

I used to think love had to hurt (Used to)

So I'd do shit to make it worse

Got off on the toxic words

I used to think love had to hurt

But, lately

I've been thinkin', maybe

No one needs to save me

'Cause I love me enough for all of y'all (All of y'all)

Oh, baby, don't you play

Wipe your pretty little face

Let 'em say what they say

Oh, baby, walk away (Ooh)

Oh, baby, don't you play

Wipe your pretty little face

Let 'em say what they say

Celebrate you walked away

Celebrate, celebrate (Celebrate)

Celebrate you walked away (You walked away, yeah)

Celebrate, celebrate

Celebrate you walked away (Oh)

I gotta celebrate, you gotta celebrate

Walked away, c'mon
