| What's new? Isn't it really just the old pursued?You say you loved me, but then you turn and walk away
All for love, not even born yesterday
I see you on the streets and you just pass me by
You think I got no feelings, think I’m living high?
But let me tell ya…
I could be on the TV, I could be in the magazines
But it’s never enough when you felt the touch
Of an angel that’s rocking your soul
When the rain comes down
You’re never around
But when the sun comes up
You always steal the fire
And rain comes down on this side of town
But people have no feelings
They just run around They just...they just...
Keep chasing dollars, it’s making me hollow
I just don’t know
I don’t need a check I need some respect
So people, you know?
And the war, and the baby's crying
And the car, and the house, and the rings
And the things that don’t mean nothing?
You can try to hate, classify and make me break down
But I’m here to elevate, I’ll be floating in outer space now
When the rain comes down
Will you be around?
When the sun comes up
Will you always steal my fire? When rain comes down on this side of town
But people have no feelings
People… Whoo…
it's almost the end of the semester in probably the worst sequences of events that occurred all in a row. but i still praise God for lifting my head above the troubled waters. you guys must be saying..."you're crazy! how can you still believe in God even after all that's happened to you?" but if it wasn't for all this, i'd still be heading down the wrong path. goes to show that prevalent theme in the Bible - "you meant it for evil, but God meant it for good". learned alot of things through this experience. i was chasing the wrong things when the right thing was in front of me. as i told my boy Trek, it's not the destination that builds us, it's the journey.
if i don't make it back here before christmas, merry christmas to you all! check me on myspace - www.myspace.com/nonethelest...music myspace coming sooooooooooooooon! [just laying down some tracks!] can't wait to share my music to y'all.
peace and blessings,
les

amos lee - colors
Yesterday I got lost in the circus Felling like such a mess Now I’m down I’m just hanging on the corner I can’t help but reminisce When you’re gone all the colors fade When you’re gone no New Year’s Day parade You’re gone Colors seem to fade
Your mama called she said that you’re down stairs crying Feeling like such a mess Yeah I hear you you’re in the background bawling What happened to your sweet summertime dress
I know we all, we all got our faults We get locked in our vaults and we stay But when you’re gone all the colors fade When you’re gone no New Year’s Day parade You’re gone Colors seem to fade Colors seem to fade Yeah

| Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by. I say to myself, "You're such a lucky guy." To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true. Out of all of the fellas in the world she belongs to you...
But it was just my imagination running away with me. It was just my imagination running away with me...
Ooh-hoo-hoo-hooh Soon we'll be married.. and raise a family. In a cozy, little home out in the country with two children, maybe three. I tell you, I can visualize it all. This couldn't be a dream for too real it all seems.
But it was just my imagination -- once again -- running away with me. I tell you it was just my imagination running away with me...
Every night, on my knees I pray, "Dear Lord, hear my plea... don't ever let another take her love from me or I will surely die.." Ooh, her love is heavenly; when her arms enfold me, I hear a tender rhapsody... but in reality, she doesn't even know me
Just my imagination -- once again -- running away with me. Tell you it was just my imagination running away with me. I never met her, but I can't forget her. Just my imagination.. -- ooh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah -- running away with me | | |
| wow, call me narcoleptic, i'm sleeping on this big time. i'm sleeping on alot of things right now but that's cuz i'm a lazy bum.

peace and blessings. | | |
| i'm baaaaaaaaccccccccckkkkkk.
p.i. was real dope. i wanna go back every year. i miss the fam. especially my little neices and nephews. MAN! i was shocked at how many of them there are. i walk in and i was just bombarded with little kids. my cousins just keep on popping them out. haha! i love 'em all.
a little observation though (on a serious tip)...
i noticed that people there are just generally happier than us here in north america. i mean, i found it odd that they who are generally "poorer" are just way more content than us here. we're so spoiled here in north america and we just take all these blessings for granted. kinda humbled me. goes to show how good we have it here and yet we still keep complaining.
oh yeah...i did something that you guys will never think i'd do. if you could guess what it is....you get a prize!
that's all for now. peace and blessings y'all. | | |
