If I Could Make Her Mine

My recording of this on YouTube

It is your smile that will never leave my mind

I think about you daily, just wishing I could make you mine

I can hear your laugh, the soundtrack to my life

I think of us together and know nothing could be more right

I think of every moment that we have spent together

You make my life a sunny day no matter what’s the weather

You are my sun when the rain comes pouring

And no moment with you can ever get boring

I just love every second that I can spend by your side

Whenever you’re around, this smile I can't hide

And when you are not near, my life feels so empty

Because all I want is for you to be with me

Just want you to be all that I can see

Because you truly are all that I need

And I would sell away my entire future

Just so I could spend another moment with you

Even if it was just for the blink of an eye

It's better than an entire life without you by my side

Because my hand is just another piece of the puzzle

That can only become whole with your hand in mine as we cuddle

And I would just love to hold you in my arms

Whisper in your ear that I will protect you from every harm

Hold you close and never let you go

Let you feel that love you thought you'd never know

Kiss you on the cheek, let you know everything is fine

All of this I'd love to do, if I could make you mine

All of this I’d love to say if you would just listen

I have all these people around me yet it is you that I am missin’

I would trade them all away, for it to be just me and you

I think if you gave me a chance you’d see this love to be true

I may not have much, but I can guarantee you my heart

And I can promise you this, we will never fall apart

If you ever slip, I will be there to catch you

If you ever feel scared, I will be there to protect you

If you’re ever cold, I will be there with a sweater

And if you are sick, I will be by your side until you’re better

And when it’s that time of the month and out comes the crazy

I will be there, hand full of daisies

Each day my love for you keeps growing

And my heart for you is overflowing

When I am with you I am afraid to even blink an eye

And I don’t ever want to have to say goodbye

And I just can’t get your image out of my head

If love is a disease, then in my body it is fully spread

But I don’t ever want the cure

I want this disease to mature

And maybe it’ll spread to you, and love for me you will find

All of these are my wishes, on how I could make you mine

Six Feet Deep

We try so hard just to be accepted

Changing our image to what society wants reflected

Changing our thoughts until they're no longer our own

Doing anything at all so we will never be alone

Surrounding ourselves with anyone we can find

Thinking this will help us shine 

Just trying to fit into the crowd

Just trying to make this world proud

Trying anything this world says we should

Living our lives so misunderstood

Just trying to be heard

So into our body a new person is transferred 

We spend our whole life looking for some fame

Just trying to make a name

But they will never remember

To this world we are just another number

Just another page in the history book

And they will never give us a second look

We're just left back in their rear

But they won't take a look into their mirror

We're just forgotten with nothing more than a tombstone

We try to so hard, but we will never be known

If we just blend into society

You can't be remembered if you have no identity 

If we just try to fit into the status quo

We will be nothing that this world will ever know

The world doesn't remember the ones who followed, rather those who led

Because the ones who followed are nothing more than dead

But he who led the movement lives on

Yet all we want is to just follow along

Just try to morph into those around us

Leaving our old selves out to rust

Too afraid to write our own story

Too afraid to find our own glory

Too afraid to not be loved

So our true identity is gloved

Never allowed to make a peep

And our legend will just be buried six feet deep

Lovestruck

I can't help but to dream of me and you
Wishing that this dream would come true
Just staring at the sky looking for a shooting star
They all tell me my dreams are too bizzarre
But  I can't help but wish
They tell me that the sea is full, but you're my only fish
Maybe these dreams are too insane
But you have been too implanted in my brain
And now I cannot get you out
I refuse to listen to those people who doubt
Those people who tell me to move on
The ones who tell me the short stick I have drawn
Tell me I am just wasting my time
But I'd rather chase you than make another girl mine
So I sit here throwing coin after coin into the well
Because to you I will never say farewell
They're all telling me enough is enough
But I want you to know I will never give up
So I search the ground for some good luck
I will do anything, for my heart has been lovestruck
Struck straight by the arrow of cupid
Got me doing all these things looking so stupid
But it is all worth it
For it is all for a girl who is simply perfect
My interest in you I will not withdraw
They're telling me to find a flaw
But there is only one that I see
That you, are not yet with me

My Soul

Sometimes I can’t help but feel that I am to blame

That if it wasn’t for me these situations wouldn’t be the same

Guess I never considered the precautions 

For they were always listening to my discussions

Soaking it all up like a sponge

And now in them all my traits plunge

Took them over, they had no hope

Set them forth on their slippery slope

Just falling, falling- all because of me

All because of the things I let them see

Let them see me so out of control

Let them be influenced by a broken soul

Slowly breaking their own

I wish my own soul I could disown

Just burn it for eternity

For taking away their identity

Taking away their chance

Because I gave them a glance

Into the eyes of the devil

Now I just try to act like some angel

Acting like forgiveness is enough to settle my soul

But really, my soul is just on parole

Free for now as long I behave

But this sin is something that I will always crave

Just looking for some happiness to hold

But I come to find this happiness is fools gold

Just leaving me empty handed

Just don’t know if I can do all that you commanded

Please, Lord, just help me make this right

Then, my soul is yours to smite

Somebody That I Used to Know

When you left it wasn't just my heart you stole

I think you also took a piece of my soul

Because ever since the day you left

And I finally got over the nights that I laid in bed and wept

I realized that I just wasn't the same

Because through it all, feelings for you still remain

And no matter how much I tell my self it's over

I find myself wishing we could do it all over

But for what? Just for misery and pain?

I mean honestly, with you what did I gain? 

Besides just a stomach full of anxiety 

I was always trying to form into what you wanted, lost my individuality 

With you I lost the little confidence that I had

We're finally over, I should be so glad

I can finally rebuild my life you destroyed

Go back to the old me that you never seemed to enjoy 

Find the smile that you made me give up

Pick up all the dreams that you made me give up

Pick up the pieces that you left broken

Don't have to listen to the negativity that was always spoken

I am set free

Allowed to finally be me

It's funny how I used to beg you not to go

And now you're just somebody that I used to know

The Road of Success

Success is a road that so few get to travel

The pressure gets big and many are left unraveled

The road is tough and may get narrow

But like the yellow brick road all my dreams I’m gonna follow

My dreams may be set in the stars

But through faith and perseverance no star is too far

Focus your eyes on the destination

Because anything can be accomplished through determination

When you feel that you are at your weakest

Just think of what the reward is

We will all face our obstacles

But you got to keep moving if you want to reach that pinnacle

Reach your highest potential

The hard work will be all the more beneficial

No matter how crazy your ambitions

Just remember you are led by a God of perfection

And through Him you can do all things

No matter how crazy your dreams may seem

But you will never reach them if you just sit here passive

Opportunities are short, each moment you wait they may be passing

Each day you do nothing is another day wasted

Just postponing the chance for success to be tasted

Oh and how the taste is so sweet

It is a feeling that nothing can beat

Just to know that you have defeated all chances, defeated all doubt

A feeling of pride that will never dry out

For your successes can never be taken away

It doesn’t matter what any of the critics say

They can never take away that moment, never take away that feeling

Because it is in your heart concealing

It is a feeling that you can’t truly explain

But it is a feeling that will always remain

But you will never know it unless you strive for it

Unless you fully commit

Success is a road that so few get to travel

But you are the only one who gets to determine if you will

Jesus Feeds Five Hundred

I don't think we truly understand the story of the five hundred Jesus fed
All He had was some fish and a little bit of bread
But He broke the bread and said thanks for what He had
It wasn't much, but with the little He had He was glad
Because even when it seems what God provides is small
Just know that with nothing He can feed us all
He will never leave us empty
Just take what He gives you and thank Him simply
And once that little loaf is broken
You will find He has served you a golden token
That with only enough food for a few
He was able to feed five hundred of you
All we need to be is grateful 
And all we have to be is faithful
For our God is the creator of everything 
And salvation is what He will bring 
So even when you feel short changed
Know that God has a payment for you arranged
The simple story of Jesus feeding a crowd
Such a short story can speak to us so loud
That even when we feel like we have nothing
Just know, God has given you more than enough for everything 

He is Risen

Jesus of Nazareth, the man of many miracles

Fully God who came to take the flesh of fools

To live a life filled with demons 

Saving men drowning in sins

The Man who came to fulfill the prophet

But so few were able to recognize it

The Man who allowed the blind to see, the crippled to walk

Cleansed the lepers, and allowed the mute to talk

Given God's command since His birth

To bring Heaven's kingdom to earth

Spreading His love through the nations

Giving each man his rations

Birthed from a virgin, bestowed God's only son

Coming down to earth so God's will could be done

Living life tempted like us

Showing perfection can be done through God's trust

Even with knowledge of Judas' betrayal

And knowing He was seen through eyes of denial

Knowing all the torture He'd go through

He never flinched because He so loved me and you 

And even as He was nailed to the cross

Not a single ounce of love was lost

And as He took His last breath

And He came closer and closer to death

He still cried out with precision

He cried out for us to be forgiven 

For we do not know what we have done

That we had just killed off our God, His son

But three days later, when His tomb was visited

Mary came to find that He had risen

Our King once again walked the land

Showing that even death was under His command

Our Lord, our Savior is risen

And new life we are given 

Our Lord is risen

And all our sins are forgiven

Our Lord is risen

And we are no longer controlled by sin

We are set free

We are set free

For our Lord is risen

He is risen
