Mary Lambert Secrets歌词
[Verse 1]
I've got bi-polar disorder
My shit's not in order
I'm overweight
I'm always late
I've got too many things to say
I rock mom jeans, cat earrings
Extrapolate my feelings
My family is dysfunctional
But we have a good time killing each other
[Pre-Chorus]
They tell us from the time we're young
To hide the things that we don't like about ourselves
Inside ourselves
I know I'm not the only one who spent so long attempting to be someone else
Well I'm over it
[Chorus]
I don't care if the world knows what my secrets are (secrets are)
I don't care if the world knows what my secrets are (secrets are)So-o-o-o-o what
So what
So what
So what
[Verse 2]
I can't think straight, I'm so gay
Sometimes I cry a whole day
I care a lot, use an analog clock
And never know when to stop
And I'm passive, aggressive
I'm scared of the dark and the dentist
I love my butt and won't shut up
And I never really grew up
[Pre-Chorus]
They tell us from the time we're young
To hide the things that we don't like about ourselves
Inside ourselves
I know I'm not the only one who spent so long attempting to be someone else
Well I'm over it
[Chorus]
I don't care if the world knows what my secrets are (secrets are)
I don't care if the world knows what my secrets are (secrets are)
So what
So what
So what
So what
I don't care if the world knows what my secrets are (secrets are)
I don't care if the world knows what my secrets are (secrets are)
So what
So what
So what
So what
(I don't care if the world knows what my secrets are)
So what
So what
So what
So what

Will.I.Am Feelin' Myself歌词
I'll be everywhere, everybody know me
Super, super fresh, what a dope styling
Hunny on my wrist, couple karats on my neck
Givenchy, keep the chickens in check
All these car keys, drive them chickens to my crib
Jewel heel, got somebody slipping in my bed
She give me IQ, that mean she get a head
I just give the beats, so don't give a bread
'Cause we be in the club
Bottles on deck
And god dammit, god dammit
I'm feeling myself
'Cause I'mma get it all

Like god dammit, god dammit

Look up in the mirror

Catch me in the club hundred bottles on me
I get busy like a one line
In the drop getting head baby never mind
We gettin' money why you playing with it
Pool in the crib you could land a water plane in it
Slick Rick looking at the mirror

I love bad bitches that's my fuckin' problem
And I don't give a fuck that's my fuckin' problem
[will.i.am]
And I don't give a fuck that's my whole Annotatemo
I rock the whole globe with no problemo
Been rocking coats since my first demo
And now I'm banging hoes in the continental
And I done seen me slidin' out my dope ride
I open up the doors, suicide
I came from the bottom, the sewer side
I made it to the top cus I do it fly
Feelin' fuckin' lucky like the fuckin' Irish
I see the whole game from my third Iris
I tour the whole word like a dirty pirate
To give the whole world some Miley Cyrus
[Miley Cyrus]
Now everybody trippin' like they poppin' molAnnotately
Up in the club, is where you can find me
I do it real big never do it tiny
If you about that bullshit please don't remind me
I step in this motherfucker just to make it work
I get on the floor just to make that booty twerk
Shake, shake that ass like a, like an expert
Shake, shake that ass like a, like an expert
I'll be everywhere, everybody know me
Super, super fresh, what a dope styling
Hunny on my wrist, couple karats on my neck
Givenchy, keep the chickens in check
All these car keys, drive them chickens to my crib
Jewel heel, got somebody slipping in my bed
She give me IQ, that mean she get a head
I just give the beats, so don't give a bread
'Cause we be in the club
Bottles on deck
And god dammit, god dammit
I'm feeling myself
'Cause I'mma get it all
And I'mma throw it up
Like god dammit, god dammit

[Wiz Khalifa]
Doobie in my hand, Rollie on my wrist
Got a bottle of that thousand dollar champagne in my fist
Women of in your dreams sleep in my bed
So I don't need your brains I need my ass kissed
But all my homies like give me some head
Smoke joints till our eyes turn Indian red
Takes shots till our chests burn
We got papers, bottles, mollies, all this let's get it started
The bigger the bill, the bigger you ball
The bigger the watch, the bigger the car, the bigger the star
The bigger the chain, the farther you go, you already know
The bigger the bank that's more hoes, nigga
And I done spent a quarter milli on clothes
Coppin' them oldschools and puttin' foriegns on the road
Real talk and if my fuel get low
I roll up another joint take a shot and reload, pow
I'll be everywhere, everybody know me
Super, super fresh, what a dope styling
Hunny on my wrist, couple karats on my neck
Givenchy, keep the chickens in check
All these car keys, drive them chickens to my crib
Jewel heel, got somebody slipping in my bed
She give me IQ, that mean she get a head
I just give the beats, so don't give a bread
'Cause we be in the club
Bottles on deck
And god dammit, god dammit
I'm feeling myself
'Cause I'mma get it all

Like god dammit, god dammit

You say I sound silly when I laugh real loud
Talk about my day and you tune me out
You keep telling me lies to make things worse
But I don’t hear you
‘Cause I’m listening to his words
And he says I am beautiful
And when I fall
It don’t matter that I’m not perfect
I am beautiful
I’m not alone
And in his eyes I’m so worth it
I’m worth every tear
And every scar
And even when you say I’m not
He says I’m beautiful
You say I’ll never be good enough
Knock me down
Won’t help me up
And you always say the right thing to make hurt
But I don’t hear you
‘Cause I’m listening to his words
And he says I am beautiful
And when I fall
It don’t matter that I’m not perfect
I am beautiful
I’m not alone
And in his eyes I’m so worth it
I’m worth every tear
And every scar
And even when you say I’m not
He says I’m beautiful
And I deserve better things
He says he understands
I got to do whats right for me
And he says I am beautiful
And when I fall
It don’t matter that I’m not perfect
I am beautiful
I’m not alone
And in his eyes I’m so worth it
I’m worth every tear
And every scar
And even when you say I’m not
He says I’m beautiful
He says
He says
I’m beautiful
And I’m worth every tear
And every scar
And even when you say I’m not
He says I’m beautiful

Sam Hunt - Take Your Time Lyrics
I don't know if you were looking at me or not
You probably smile like that all the time
And I don't mean to bother you but
I couldn't just walk by
And not say hi
And I know your name
'Cause everybody in here knows your name
And you're not looking for anything right now
So I don't wanna come on strong
But don't get me wrong
Your eyes are so intimidating
My heart is pounding but
It's just a conversation
No girl I'm not gonna waste it
You don't know me
I don't know you but I want to
And I don't wanna steal your freedom
I don't wanna change your mind
I don't have to make you love me
I just want to take your time
I don't wanna wreck your Friday
I ain't gonna waste my lies
I don't have to take your heart
I just wanna take your time
And I know it starts with hello
And the next thing you know you're trying to be nice
And some guys getting too close
Trying to pick you up
Trying to get you drunk
And I'm sure one of your friends is about to come over here
'Cause she's supposed to save you from random guys
That talk too much and wanna stay too long
It's the same old song and dance but I think you know it well
You could have rolled your eyes
Told me to go to hell
Could have walked away
But you're still here
And I'm still here
Come on let's see where it goes
I don't wanna steal your freedom
I don't wanna change your mind
I don't have to make you love me
I just wanna take your time
I don't have to meet your mother
We don't have to cross that line
I don't wanna steal your covers
I just wanna take your time
Woah, I don't wanna go home with you
Woah, I just wanna be alone with you
I don't wanna steal your freedom
I don't wanna change your mind
I don't have to make you love me
I just wanna take your time
And I don't wanna blow your phone up
I just wanna blow your mind
I don't have to take your heart
I just wanna take your time
No, I ain't gotta call you baby
And I ain't gotta call you mine
I don't have to take your heart
I just wanna take your time, ooh

Breaking Benjamin - Failure Lyrics
Life will come our way,
It has only just begun.
The world will die alone
The frail will fall below.
Time will take our place.
We return it back to one
The calm before the cold,
The long and lonely road.
Look for the light that leads me home.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Failure.
Drive the cloud away,
We will fall from last to none.
The dark before the dawn,
The war will carry on.
Look for the light that leads me home.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Tired of wasting breath, tired of nothing left.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Failure.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Tired of wasting breath, tired of nothing left.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
We bury the sunlight, we bury the sunlight.
Failure! Failure.
We bury the sunlight, we bury the sunlight.
Failure! Failure.
Failure.

Yelawolf American You Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Man you got it all worked out, don't you? Old pair of shoes
Never wear your heart on your sleeve cause it don't go with the suit
You got a bad, bad woman with a young little pretty face
They told you not to go get married but you went and did it anyway
[Chorus]
Singin', oh sweet sounds of American you
Never miss a Sunday service, never got tattoos
Every time we drive by wavin', I see right through
Fuck you too
[Verse 2]
Mama said steer clear of the devil so you never played in the road
Always lookin' on the bright side, so you never see the potholes
You got a house on a hill, big news, that's a big deal
Big party with your big time friends, man imagine how that feels
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
I believe in the modest dream, ain't lookin' for a pot of gold
A 6 pack and some good marijuana I can watch my mama roll
I believe I can buy a few things like a house with a nice pool
Invite my nobody friends to the party and we'll be in it, fuck you
You got a blue collar father who drinks Budweiser out the bottle
20 dollars, an old Impala, a baby's mama www.ryedu.net
You work hard, you don't beg, you don't borrow
Night at the factory, daytime job at McDonald's
Your daddy told you that girl was nothin' but a problem
But you fell in love cause to you she was like a supermodel
And they told you not to go get married but you went and did it anyway
It ain't no problem
You make somethin' out of nothin', you make money for a livin'
Pushin' buttons, stickin' digits, flippin' burgers in the kitchen
With the vision, you've been dreamin', you've been savin'
You've been given nothin' but shit
But you take it cause you're patient in this prison
Fuck everybody visitin', it ain't them who gotta live in this skin
With all these tattoos that you got, it fuckin' offends them
If it's you that I'm speakin' to, you must be my extension
I take my drink up and sip it, take my hat off and tip it
Slumerican
[Chorus] x2

The Wanted - Glad You Came
Lyrics:
The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts
Is here and now
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no-one else can see, you and me
Turn the lights out now
Now I'll take you by the hand
Hand you another drink
Drink it if you can
Can you spend a little time,
Time is slipping away,
away from us so stay,
Stay with me I can make,
Make you glad you came
The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts
Is here and now
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no-one else can see, you and me
Turn the lights out now
Now I'll take you by the hand
Hand you another drink
Drink it if you can
Can you spend a little time,
Time is slipping away from us so stay,
Stay with me I can make,
Make you glad you came
The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts
Is here and now
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
So glad you came
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts
Is here and now
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came

下面是读文网小编整理的英语美文:All you remember ,欢迎大家阅读!
All you remember about your child being an infant is the incredible awe you felt about theprecious miracle you created. You remember having plenty of time to bestow all your wisdomand knowledge. You thought your child would take all of your advice and make fewer mistakes,and be much smarter than you were. You wished for your child to hurry and grow up.
All you remember about your child being two is never using the restroom alone or getting towatch a movie without talking animals. You recall afternoons talking on the phone whilecrouching in the bedroom closet, and being convinced your child would be the first Ivy League1college student to graduate wearing pullovers2 at the ceremony. You remember worryingabout the bag of M&M's melting in your pocket and ruining your good dress. You wished foryour child to be more independent.
All you remember about your child being five is the first day of school and finally having thehouse to yourself. You remember joining the PTA3 and being elected president when you left ameeting to use the restroom. You remember being asked "Is Santa real?" and saying "yes"because he had to be for a little bit longer. You remember shaking the sofa cushions for loosechange4, so the toothfairy5 could come and take away your child's first lost tooth. You wishedfor your child to have all permanent teeth.
All you remember about your child being seven is the carpool6 schedule. You learned to applymakeup in two minutes and brush your teeth in the rearview mirror1 because the only timeyou had to yourself was when you were stopped at red lights. You considered painting your caryellow and posting a "taxi" sign on the lawn next to the garage door. You remember peoplestaring at you, the few times you were out of the car, because you kept flexing2 your foot andmaking acceleration3 noises. You wished for the day your child would learn how to drive.
All you remember about your child being ten is managing the school fund?raisers. You soldwrapping paper for paint, T shirts for new furniture, and magazine subscriptions4 for shadetrees in the school playground. You remember storing a hundred cases of candy bars in thegarage to sell so the school band could get new uniforms, and how they melted together onan unseasonably5 warm spring afternoon. You wished your child would grow out of playing aninstrument.
All you remember about your child being twelve is sitting in the stands6 during baseballpractice and hoping your child's team would strike out7 fast because you had more importantthings to do at home. The coach didn't understand how busy you were. You wished thebaseball season would be over soon.
All you remember about your child being fourteen is being asked not to stop the car in front ofthe school in the morning. You had to drive two blocks further and unlock the doors withoutcoming to a complete stop. You remember not getting to kiss your child goodbye or talking tohim in front of his friends. You wished your child would be more mature.
All you remember about your child being sixteen is loud music and undecipherable8 lyrics9screamed to a rhythmic beat. You wished for your child to grow up and leave home with thestereo.
All you remember about your child being eighteen is the day they were born and having all thetime in the world.
And, as you walk through your quiet house, you wonder where they went and you wish yourchild hadn't grown up so fast.

不要让任何人偷走你的梦想。无论怎样都要跟随你自己的心。下面是读文网小编为大家整理的双语美文欣赏:Keep Your Dream,希望大家喜欢!
I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch. He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events. The last time I was there he introduced me by saying: “I want to tell you a story. It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of an itinerant horse trainer who would go from stable to stable, race track to race track, farm to farm and ranch to ranch, training horses. As a result, the boy’s high school career was continually interrupted. When he was a senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.
“That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great detail and he even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the location of all the buildings, the stables and the track. Then he drew a detailed floor plan for a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a 200-acre dream ranch.
“He put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that read, ‘See me after class.’
“The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, ‘Why did I receive an F?’ The teacher said, ‘This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. You have no money. You come from an itinerant family. You have no resources . Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for the original breeding stock and later you’ll have to pay large stud fees . There’s no way you could ever do it.’ Then the teacher added, ‘If you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.’
“The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, ‘Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very important decision for you.’ Finally, after a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no changes at all. He stated, ‘You can keep the F and I’ll keep my dream.’ ”
Monty then turned to the assembled group and said, “I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper framed over the fireplace.” He added, “The best part of the story is that two years ago that same schoolteacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week. When the teacher was leaving, he said, ‘Look, Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream stealer. During those years I stole a lot of kids’ dreams. Fortunately you had enough gumption not to give up on yours.’ ”
“Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what,” Monty at last concluded.
美文翻译:
我有一个朋友叫蒙蒂•罗伯茨,他拥有一座养马场。他让我用他的房子作为举办筹集基金活动的地点。上次我在他那儿时,他跟我说:“我想给你讲一个故事。这要追溯到一个年轻人身上发生的故事,他是一位巡回驯马师的儿子,他的驯马师父亲从马厩到赛马场,从农庄到牧场,负责训练那里的马匹。结果,这个男孩的中学生涯就不断地被中断。当他成为一名高年级学生的时候,老师要求他写一篇文章,内容有关他长大后想成为什么人以及想做些什么。
“那天夜里,他写了长达七页的文章,描述了自己将来有一天能拥有一座养马场的目标。他极其详细地介绍了自己的这个梦想,甚至还画出了一幅200英亩牧场的示意图,在上面标出所有建筑、马厩和跑道的具体位置。然后他又画了一幅面积达4,000平方英尺的房屋平面图,这栋房子会坐落在200英亩的梦想牧场上。
“他在这个项目上投入了很多心血,第二天,他把文章交给了老师。两天后,他收到了自己的文章。在第一页上,有一个大大的红色F,并带有一条批注:‘课后来见我。’
“这个怀揣梦想的男孩课后去见那位老师,他问:‘为什么我得了一个F?’老师回答说:‘对于像你这样的小男孩来说,这是一个不切实际的梦想。你没钱。你出身于一个居无定所的家庭。你也没什么才智谋略。要拥有一座养马场需要很多钱。你得买地。你还得为原有的种畜付钱,之后,你将要支付大笔的种马费。你是永远也无法做到的。’随后,老师又补充道:‘如果你针对一个更为实际的目标重写这篇文章的话,我会重新考虑你的成绩的。’
“这个男孩回家苦苦思索了很久,他问自己的父亲他该做些什么。父亲回答说:‘哎,儿子,你必须要在这件事上自己下定决心。不过,我认为这对你来说是一个非常重要的决定。’最终,男孩在一周后交上了同样一篇文章,他根本没做任何更改。他表明:‘你可以保留这个F,而我将继续怀有我的这个梦想。’”
然后,蒙蒂转向聚集的人群说:“我告诉你们这个故事,是因为你们目前正坐在我4,000平方英尺的房子里,它就坐落在我这200英亩的养马场中心。我依然留着那份学校论文,把它装在镜框里,挂在壁炉的上方。”他补充道:“这个故事里最精彩的部分是,就在两年前,同一位老师带着30个孩子在我的牧场上露营了一周的时间。当那位老师离开时,他说:‘喂,蒙蒂,我现在可以对你说这些了,当我做你老师的时候,我其实有点儿像一个偷梦人。在那些岁月里,我偷走了很多孩子的梦想。但幸运的是,你有足够的魄力,没有放弃自己的梦想。’”
“不要让任何人偷走你的梦想。无论怎样都要跟随你自己的心,”蒙蒂最后总结道。
