Fortzion(Authenticity) Music

..legends are made when th song they sing never dies!

that aside,i think I'm now singing new tunes to old lyrics..old music!..legendary music..
here goes..sheryl crowe and her "first cut is the deepest jazz":
I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And he's taken just all that I have
But if you want I'll try to love again

...yes Ron...someone should try to "love" again..some people have not even tried to love for once just because they fear they will be the ones to tear someone's heart up to pieces...
But Ron,Iam willing to make the leap..Iam willing to walk away with this stranger..In the words of Avril Lavigne this time "I'm with You"
I'm standing on a bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound

Isn't anyone tryin to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you

..Life is lived on the risks we are willing to take for what we want..risks we take to get those we love!
When you're drowning to the bottom of the sea...no one knows what you'll stummble upon in the endless choking darkness beneath you...You might run into a whale shark...or better still...you might stumble upon long lost sea treasure!the secret is in diving into the sea with eyes closed!
Owl City and "Take to the Sky":
Shipwreck in the sea of faces,
There's a dreamy world up there,
Dear friends in higher places,
Carry me away from here,
Travel light let the sun eclipse you,
'Cause your flight is about to leave,
And there's more to this brave adventure,
Than you'd ever believe,

Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you,
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue,
Chase your dreams, and remember me, speak bravery,
'cause after all those wings will take you, up so high,
So bid the forest floor goodbye, as you brace the wind and,
Take to the sky... you take to the sky

"friend of mine"...

Sooner Than Yesterday

Iam lost for words to say,
'cause waiting for that perfect day...
iam waiting for the perfect sunrise,
but its the perfect practical rainy day...
All the time,you always walk away...
&Sometimes you're gone...even sooner than my yesterday!

15 days!

"..if music be food for the soul,play on" and "if schooling be the therapy for ignorance..let the teachers 'teach on'!"
It's been exactly 15days,and 13hours from the time i lost set my eyes upon a pair of jeans...
it's exactly been about the same time since i last wore my long kinky...rugged afro dreads...{i miss them!}...
and it's been round about the same time since i last did plotless hanging out with my plotless pals!!
Nobody knows where this ends up...but when we're done,i dont see myself in this classroom!

everything is never as it seems

“Everything is never as it seems
Good things seem to fade away with our dreams
Deepest darkness seems to hide where the light in greatest
brightness beams
Sad eulogies sound in the heart of praise of glorious hymns”


This is the point where I want to say something…actually a lot of things, and/but there is this serious lack of expression incessantly lingering over me! Never the less I still get to say something (I’ve got to say something).
Ever stopped to think how all of us (yes…you and me inclusive) pretend? Ok, we at least kind of pretend at some point in life. Do you know/haven’t you ever noticed how for every person you meet you wear a different face? Surprising but true?! Somehow at some point in life it’s only your best friend who has met, or gotten to taste a glimpse of “the real you” (in most cases your bff has actually experienced all the possible characters of you…and may be not the complete real you).
So where on earth does this end up? jeez…myself I don’t know. I woke up one day and I was tired of pretending, so I decided to plait my long hair (mark you, dreadlocks has been the real Fort since my childhood…ask my mum)…you don’t want to know where the cornrows, ended me up, moreover in church[you noticed?..”ended me up”...haaha…].
People get so used to the fake you, they don’t want the genuine thing…they have no liking for the AUTHENTICITY in you. Fact is though, when the real you is jailed on the inside of a fake you, you’ll always feel inadequate! you may never get to be!
Piece of advice, “do what you have to do”…it's just as simple as that. The most important things you must always think about still remain; GOD , family (the order of the first two never changes…particularly the first one),friends, love, gifts(talents),strangers(everyday people), the person you have a crush on, the house-help, the askari, your lecturer, the taxi conductor, the pope(I think…)..as in people need people in a nutshell!
People are people, and people need people. READ YOUR BIBLE, PRAY EVRYDAY and DO A GOOD DEED ESPECIALLY FOR A STRANGER EVERYDAY!

Ps: BFF, may be you have a “hastiness problem”, and sometimes I think you are too bossy and judgmental…but who cares, my temper issues are an item too…I love you too much to even care for a second about that!
