Ode To Chin
What's your direction?
Tell me what's wrong, tell me what's right.
What's your direction?
Think about somebody else for the night.
Life's more than girls.
God's more than words.
You're more than this.
So, what's your direction,
And where are you now?
Grow, grow where you are.
Anchor your roots underneath.
Doubt your doubts and believe your beliefs.
What's your direction?
What matters most?
What should you know?
What's your direction?
All that you've been
Makes who you are now,
'Cause I've been ashamed.
I've been a fool.
You know Ive backed down.
When I lose direction, I pray to be found.
Grow, grow where you are.
Anchor your roots underneath.
Doubt your doubts and believe your beliefs.

My Duty Promise
i will build a glory before i die
i will tell my heart not to deny
i will build my faith to the sky
i will tell the soul what to defy
i will build my sentence with no lie
i will tell my mind to fly
after all when i die
i will live in the mansions of the sky
this was said by the most high
'the good shall live with me when they die'

Who Knew This?
You helped build up my life.
To see dawn,
From tops of mountains.
To adopt without doubt...
What is mine and belongs.
My life!
And all there is about it.
You helped build up my life.
Yes.
And to see dawn.
To fly high like an Eagle!
With a might ignited within me so strong.
Who knew this?
That you would be allowed to bring out the best in me,
To see.
Who knew this?
Not me!
That you would bring out my best.
Who knew this?
That you would be allowed to bring out the best in me,
To see.
Who knew this?
Not me!
That you would bring out my best.
You helped build up my life.
My life!
And all there is about it.
To fly high like an Eagle!
With a might ignited within me so strong.
Who knew this?
That you would be allowed to bring out the best in me,
To see.
Who knew this?
Not me!
That you would bring out my best.
You helped build up my life.
To see dawn,
From tops of mountains.
To adopt without doubt...
What is mine and belongs.
With a might ignited within me so strong.
Who knew this?
Not me!
That you would bring out my best.
That you would and could,
Separate me from the rest!
Who knew this?

The Lovely Lady Linnea
A winsome lass I spied one day
Who cared not for herself.
As she went on her winsome way,
She thanked God for her health.
From street-to-street and road-to-road,
She raised funds for the poor
And so her blessings overflowed
As she knocked door-to-door.
With total love her foremost thought,
Her soft voice spoke to me.
I told her of the things I'd bought
Supporting charity.
I passed them to their High Street shops,
Where they'd be sold anew
And so the blessing never stops,
As I bade them, 'Adieu! '
To hold things back, while others starve,
Is cruelty indeed.
The world is one big cake to carve,
Yet still some pray in need.
She made me think of years ago,
When charities helped me,
When savings were so hard to grow -
Ask any family...
When I looked back, my heart gave thanks.
I promised that I'd give
And as before, from out my banks,
My money helped some live.
Though I may never know their names,
I've helped fulfil God's plan.
Like Jesus, Peter, John and James,
I've helped my fellow man.
The winsome lass continued on...
Another street to bless...
And in a moment she was gone...
With smiles of happiness...

Another Pyramid
Sad to say our mighty ruler
Is not really in the pink
Hopes could not be minuscular
That he'll come back from the brink
Not to beat around the bush
He looks like heading for his box
At the risk of seeming pushy
We must plan for future shocks
According to the hawk of Horus
Our most regal invalid
Is not that much longer for us
Build another pyramid
Build it, build it
Another pyramid
build it, build it
Though all doctors and physicians
Have been summoned to his bed
It'll soon be top morticians
We'll be calling for instead
With each wheeze the nation's humming
Egypt shakes with every cough
No two ways about what's coming
No discussion, bets are off
Soon our monarch will have filled the tomb
Just like his fathers did
Summon Egypt's greatest builder
Need another pyramid
Build it, build it
Another pyramid
Build it, build it
We hate to depress the nation
But our leader has been told
He should scrub his next vacation
Even put tonight on hold
This is where his loyal priesthood
Has the chance to do him proud
Holy leaders at the least should
See him happy to his shroud
He must have a vault that's grand by
Any standards for to live
Put five thousand slaves on standby
Build another pyramid

Build A Fire (lenny Dee Remix)
Pulled up to rest, let the engine cool awhile.
Open the beans, gather wood for the fire.
I hum this tune, to all the girls I've known.
Should I care, about the chances I've blown?
Build a fire, they're gonna build a fire
Build a fire, they're gonna build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
When daylight breaks, I'll be down that road.
Rockman 'an me, with a lighter load.
We'll stop fo r lunch, in some taco bar.
Lee Marvin on the jukebox, 'Wanderin Star'.
Build a fire, they're gonna build a fire
Build a fire, they're gonna build a fire

Doubt Makes A Lousy Foundation.
If my doubts made way
for true love today.
Would you love me more
than you did before?
Would the sweetness of your kiss
be more difficult to resist,
and the passion you create
be better to contemplate?
Would your touch and caress
improve on my contentedness?
And your thoughtfulness and care
make me any more aware?
Would your technique in our love play
improve with every passing day?
Could there be even better times to come
than those we built our memories on?
After all the time given to thought
the down side is a positive naught.
So all lingering doubts have gone
and we’ve a love to build upon.

I always knew where I was going eventually, so it helped me to stay at home for three years. It helped me to develop my game. But it also helped me off the ice. Life here is way different, and I was able to get older.

Take Your Hand
Take Your Hand"
Hey
I feel like I just blow on up
Anytime I could just lose control, caught up
In your lovin' everytime I feel your touch
Second thoughts more doubts started buildin' up
You're everything I wanted
Before I knew just what I wanted
And hey, hey
You're killin' me on the inside
And you're the only one I want
I can't deny
Don't know what to do
What to say
I'm not sure what to tell you
Confused, which way do I
Take your hand or let go (do I)
Take your hand or let it go (I can't)
Take this feelin' much more (do I)
Take your hand or let go (go)
Don't know what to do
What to say
I'm not sure what to tell you
Confused, which way do I go
Hey
I feel like I just blow on up
Everytime I feel your love
I get so caught up
It's your kissin', your touch
It's just everything
But I'm feelin' like I wanna just run away
I'm here to tell you what I want
But you're everything I want
And hey, hey
It's killin' me on the inside
Cuz you're all I ever wanted
So I can't deny
Don't know what to do
What to say
I'm not sure what to tell you
Confused, which way do I
Take your hand or let go (do I)
Take your hand or let it go (I can't)
Take this feelin' much more (do I)
Take your hand or let go (go)
Don't know what to do
What to say
I'm not sure what to tell you
Confused, which way do I go
Somebody tell me
Is it that I'm so hung I can't say
Or is it my life
So young, careless ways
And in your eyes
So much love you wanna give
But the more I hold you in my arms
The pressure starts to build (build)
Build it up (build, build, build)
Don't know what to do
What to say
I'm not sure what to tell you
Confused, which way do I
Take your hand or let go (do I)
Take your hand or let it go (I can't)
Take this feelin much more (do I)
Take your hand or let go (go)
Dont know what to do
What to say
I'm not sure what to tell you
Confused, which way do I
Take your hand or let go
Take your hand or let it go
Take your hand or let go
Take your hand or let it go
Take your hand or let go
Take your hand or let it go
Take your hand or let go
Take your hand or let it go
Take your hand or let go
Take your hand or let go

To A Special Friend
To a special friend that helped me during my darkest days.
To a special friend that showed me that loves comes in many ways.
To a special friend that is able to understand my grueling pain.
To a special friend that helped me find all my lost remains.
To a special friend that showed me the light.
To a special friend that fought by my side when I couldnt handle the fight.
To a special friend that helped me stand on the days I fell apart.
To a special friend that healed this torn heart.
For all the peace you brought me.
For all the love you gave me.
For the hand you have given me.
For the courage you gave me to live another day
To that special friend that helped me realized the truth
I say Thank You..
I Dont Want To Grow Up
When Im lying in my bed at nite
I dont wanna grow up
Nothing ever seems to turn out right
I dont wanna grow up
How do you move in a world of fog thats
Always changing things
Makes wish that I could be a dog
When I see the price that you pay
I dont wanna grow up
I dont ever want to be that way
I dont wanna grow up
Seems that folks turn into things
That they never want
The only thing to live for is today...
Im gonna put a hole in my t.v. set
I dont wanna grow up
Open up the medicine chest
I dont wanna grow up
I dont wanna have to shout it out
I dont want my hair to fall out
I dont wanna be filled with doubt
I dont wanna be a good boy scout
I dont wanna have to learn to count
I dont wanna have the biggest amount
I dont wanna grow up
Well when I see my parents fight
I dont wanna grow up
They all go out and drinkin all night
I dont wanna grow up
Id rather stay here in my room
Nothin out there but sad and gloom
I dont wanna live in a big old tomb on grand street
When I see the 5 oclock news
I dont wanna grow up
Comb their hair and shine their shoes
I dont wanna grow up

A Friend
I live in a world,
Of pure Silence.
No one cares,
No one hears,
What I say,
So I just lay.
I think of running,
It's kinda funny.
All I have to do,
Is get up,
And run away.
Then I think,
'Find a bridge,
Just jump,
And it's over.'
Then I try,
But I become scared to die.
Then someone comes,
Helps me up,
Wipes the tears away,
And tells me,
'You have Beauty,
Talent,
And Intellegence.
You are YOU.'
I look up to see,
Who has helped me.
A teacher,
Who I like,
Is there.
I thank him,
And leave.
He has helped me,
He has saved me.

Our Love
Jerry lynn williams
Day by day Im lost for words to say
I try and speak but the words wont come
You and I should take these wings and fly
Its time to ring every bell and beat on every drum
Cause our love can take us where weve never been
And our love can build this world again
Build this world
What we need is just a little love and well succeed
The time has come for everyone to know
That you and I were all the reasons why
He taught the birds to sing and made the flowers grow
And our love can take us where weve never been
And our love can build this world again
Build this world
The time has come for everyone to know
He taught the birds to sing and made the flowers grow
And our love can take us where weve never been
And our love can build this world again
Build this world
Day by day Im lost for words to say
I try and speak but the words wont come
So you and I should take these wings and fly
Its time to ring every bell and beat on every drum
Tell the world about it
Our love can take us where weve never been
And our love can build this world again
Build this world
