Rawlings
No matter the bullet pains in me, i will survive;
No matter the hatred around me, i will survive;
So give my letter to Mrs. Robinson because,
I love her daughter!
And my name is Rawlings.

Our Survival
We shall survive distance.
We shall survive space.
But can we survive the loneliness
that we have to face?
We shall survive winter.
We shall survive spring.
But can we survive the guilt
of the wedding ring?
We shall survive long nights.
We shall survive days.
But can we survive the longings
that always and forever stays?
We shall survive suspicion.
We shall survive fear.
But can we survive living
without each other, dear?
We shall survive all of this
if we put our love first.
We shall survive hunger.
We shall survive thirst
only if this love is true.

Survival Shake
This is no story its the key of existence
A little thing you better not forget
I dont know nothing bout its a water-resistance
Why dont you use your head
And survive, survive, survive
You got to survive
Survive, survive, survive
You got to survive
So tell me darling what you wanna be
A welcome idiot in an appletree
I shake you up and I shake you down
Down to the ground
To survive, survive, survive
You got to survive
Survive, survive
All you got to do is to survive
You just got one life
All you got to do is to survive
You just got one life
So better be careful boy
Survive, survive, survive...

Only The Strong Survive (Take 22)
I remember my first love affair
Somehow or another the whole darn thing went wrong
My mamma had some great advice
So I thought I'd put it into words of this song
I can still hear her sayin' it
Boy, Oh, I see you're sittin' out there all alone
Cryin' your eyes out 'cos the woman that you love has gone
Oh, there's gonna be, there's gonna be a whole lot of trouble in your life
Oh, so listen to me get up off your knees 'cos only the strong survive
That's what she said, only the strong survive
Only the strong survive,
Oh you've got to be strong, you'd better hold on
Don't go all around with your head hung down
Well I wouldn't let that little girl
No, I wouldn't let her know that she made me feel like a clown
There's a whole lot a girls lookin' for a good man like you
Oh but you'll never meet 'em if you give up now and say that your life is through
Yes she said: Only the strong survive, only the strong survive,
You've got to be a man, you've got to take a stand
Only the strong survive, only the strong survive,
Oh, you've got to be strong, you'd better hold on
'Cos only the strong survive
Only the strong survive, only the strong survive,
Well, you've got to be a man, you've got to take a stand
Only the strong survive, only the strong survive

I Will Survive
(f.perren & d.fekaris)
(this is dedicated to my girls)
At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinkin I could never live without you by my side
Then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
And so youre back from outer space
I just walked in to find you here, with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second youd be back to bother me
Go on now, go walk out the door
Just turn around now
coz youre not welcome anymore
Werent you the one who tried to break me with goodbye?
Did you think Id crumble?
Did you think Id lay down and die?
Oh no not i, I will survive
For as long as I know how to love, I know Ill stay alive
Ive got all my life to live
And Ive got all my love to give
Ill survive
I will survive
Hey hey
(i, I will survive)
Hey hey
(i, I will survive)
Every day
(i, I will survive)
Oh yeah
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Just trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high
And you see me, somebody new
Im not that chained up little person still in love with you
And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
But now Im savin all my lovin for someone whos lovin me
Go on now, go walk out the door
Just turn around now
Youre not welcome anymore
Werent you the one who tried to break me with goodbye?
Did you think Id crumble?
Did you think Id lay down and die?
Oh no not i, I will survive
Oh as long as I know how to love, I know Ill stay alive
Ive got all my life to live
And Ive got all my love to give
Ill survive
I will survive
Hey hey
Go now, go walk out the door
Just turn around now
coz youre not welcome anymore
Werent you the one who tried to break me with goodbye?
Did you think Id crumble?
Did you think Id lay down and die?
Oh no not i, I will survive
Oh as long as I know how to love, I know Ill stay alive
Ive got all my life to live
And Ive got all my love to give
Ill survive
I will survive
I will survive
(i, I will survive)
Hey
(i, I will survive)
Every day
(i, I will survive)
Yeah yeah
(i, I will survive)
Oh
(i, I will survive)
I will survive
(i, I will survive)
(i, I will survive)
Ive got all my love to give
(i, I will survive)
Ive got all my life to live
(i, I will survive)
My loving is not in vain, oh no
(i, I will survive)
I will survive
(i, I will survive)

No Matter What You Do
(olivia newton-john)
No matter what you do Ill send you love
No matter what you say
No matter what you do Ill send you love
Starting today
Im not lost
Im not scared
Im not frightened at all
Im just sad that youre feeling this way
But no matter what you do
Ill send you love anyway
I started out with anger I was mad
I started out afraid
I had to let it go cause in your mind
You felt betrayed
You are lost
You are scared
You are frightened I know
And Im sad that youre feeling this way
But no matter what you do
Ill send you love anyway
I found out
Just what is important
And I found out
Who really loves me
And I found out
That trials like these make us grow
So no matter what you feel Ive done to you
Know that my heart was true
If reaping what you sow is real I know
I planted in truth
And I hope you find out
That its you that youre hurting
Its time that you let it all go
cause no matter what you do
Ill send you love cause I know
That if I lose it all
Ill survive and Ill show
From the fall I can grow and go on
And I wont live in fear of the changes it makes
cause Ive learned what it takes to be strong
So no matter what you do
Ill send you love
Oh no matter what you say
Oh no matter what you do
Ill send you love starting today
Im not lost
Im not scared
Im not frightened at all
I surrender myself to my fate
So no matter what you do Ill send you love
Oh no matter what you do Ill send you love
Oh no matter what you do Ill send you love anyway

Let's have a dream, let's have a dream,
No matter how hard it is, let's survive another day.
I want to climb the sphinx under the moon.
Let's have a dream, let's have a dream.
Let's love each other, let's love each other,
No matter how we struggle, we die tomorrow.
I want to caress the new york skyline
And love each other, love each other.
Let's forgive each other, forgive each other,
No matter how we have each other, it's a life that ends tomorrow.
Let's watch the water of the seine pass by
And let's forgive each other, forgive each other.
Wanna love each other,
Wanna hold each other,
Wanna forgive each other,
Wanna meet, wanna meet, wanna meet,
Love, love, love, love,
I miss you!
Let's have a dream, let's have a dream,
No matter how hard it is, let's survive another day.
I wanna be blown by the willow in ginza.
Let's have a dream, let's have a dream.
I want to be immersed in the green of japan
Let's have a dream, let's have a dream.
Wanna love each other,
Wanna hold each other,
Wanna forgive each other,
Wanna meet, wanna meet, wanna meet,
Love, love, love, love,

Once Said
Mind is equal to Matter

The Father is the Voild
The wife Waves
Their child is Matter.
Matter makes it with the mother
And their child is Life,
a daughter.
The Daughter is the Great Mother
Who, wuth her father/brother Matter
as her lover,
Give birth to the Mind.

Will We Survive? Yom HaShoah 5768
WILL WE SURVIVE? YOM HASHOAH 5768
Will we survive?
I don’t know.
I will not survive.
But will we survive?
Will my children grow old here?
Will there be generations to come here?
Will Israel survive?
Will the Jewish people survive?
G-d has promised us
But can we trust G-d?
Can we trust anyone or anything
After what we have been through.
Israel is here.
Sixty years.
The Jewish people
A few thousand or more
Will we survive?
How long?
I don’t know.
I pray we will do right
May God help us

It Must Be Over
Written by: r. robinson & c. robinson
No matter what road I take
No matter what laws I break, I still
I keep singing these songs
No matter what my mistakes
No matter how high the stakes, I wont
I wont ever fold
And with time youll see
You will forget about me
And Ive already disowned you
From my memory
Can you see
I know it must be over
This love can last no longer
We both know that it must be over
Now I see
No matter what words I write
No matter no wrong nor right, you still
You listen anyway
No matter where I sleep tonight
No matter if the stars if the stars shine bright, I know
That Im on my way
And with time youll see
You will forget about me
And Ive already disowned you
From my memory
Can you see
I know it must be over
This love can last no longer
We both know that it must be over
Now I see
Alone is just alone
Tell me whats a happy home
Tell me whats a wasted year
When you lose, when you lose all of your fears
Tell me
And with time youll see
You will forget about me
And Ive already disowned you
From my memory
Can you see
I know it must be over
This love can last no longer
We both know that it must be over
Now I see, now I see, now i....
I know, I know that it must over
This love can last no longer
We both know that it must be over
Now I see

You're an ancient walker
You're an ancient walker down the pallid walls of silence
Who likes to creep in all horror stories in design
There are so many things I hate about you
As they look like too much of myself
But unlike me you can't change your faces from morn to eve
And unlike me you sometimes
Neatly wear your mind where your heart should be
With a repelling urge to push things into words
Only because you want them to survive
Only because you want to survive
At the expense of the world crumbling down
Just to fit the measure of the simile you normally get stuck in
Perfectly aware that a is not b since a long time ago
That a cannot be b no matter how hard you try
To shift it back into a mythos time
Revive in vacuum reanimation
Your own heart when softly you lick
Those wounds that only you understand and care about
And when despair driven you want them to survive
For it may mean that you will survive as well
I am touching you like a disease
A hypochondriac infliction in love with itself
That never wants to heal
You will eat up the best part of me
Long before I'll be able to reach myself
But to survive at the cost of myself
Is far from my finishing line

No Matter What
No matter what they tell us
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach us
What they belive is true
No matter what they call us
How ever they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back
I can't deny what i belive
I can't be what i'm not
I know i love forever
I know no matter what
If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered
Then we would here god say
No matter what they tell you
No matter what they do
No matter what they teach you
What you believe is true
And i will keep you safe and strong
And sheltered from the storm
No matter where it's barren
Our dream is being born
No matter who they follow
No matter where the lead
No matter how they judge us
I'll be everyone you need
No matter if the sun don't shine
Or if the skies aren't blue
No matter why they ended
My life began with you
I can't deny what i believe
I can't be what i'm not
I know this love forever
That's all that matter's now
No matter what
No

Time Will Tell
Time will tell if I will live eternally,
Through life instead of being someone.
All of my life, you are the one, youre on my mind.
Have a good time, do what you want, but you will find,
Time will tell if Ill survive.
Id rather be dead than just pretend Im alive.
Time will tell, its just a matter of time.
Its just a matter of time.
Time will tell if we will be the same as now,
Or not, if not, then never mind.
All of my life, you are the one, youre on my mind.
Have a good time, do what you want, but you will find,
Time will tell if Ill survive.
Id rather be dead than just pretend Im alive.
Time will tell, its just a matter of time.
Its just a matter of time.
Time will tell if dreams become reality,
For you got me, as long as you want.
All of my life, you are the one, youre on my mind.
Have a good time, do what you want, but you will find,
Time will tell if Ill survive.
Id rather be dead than just pretend Im alive.
Time will tell, its just a matter of time.
Its just a matter of time.
Its just a matter of time.

Made with no loss of time

Matter makes it with his mother
And their child is Life,

No Matter
No matter what your resume might say
No matter your belief or to what GOD you pray
No matter the languages that you might speak
No matter the lessons that you might teach.
No matter the words that you might use
No matter your occupation or the work you do
No matter the schooling or the degrees you have
No matter the pot holes that's in your path.
No matter the places that you had lived
No matter the gifts that you did give
No matter your wealth whether your rich or poor
No matter if you speak quietly or speak with a roar.
No matter the clothes that you wear
No matter the color or the length of your hair
All that matters is your actions and your deeds
As they speak louder, and to them, man will heed.

No Matter How Handsome and Tall
No matter how Handsome and Tall -
No matter how more Beautiful than all-
No matter how Great-
No matter how Courageous and Strong -
No matter how Loving and Kind-
No matter how Good as Good can be-
No matter how much of All and Everything,
In every way and form
No matter who one is
And what one is
And how much they give
And how life is made better or more beautiful by them-
No matter how Big or how Small

In the end,
In one real sense,
Nothing at all.

All's Fair in Love and War
Going on instinct, wanting to survive
you kill all people both low and high
you hide from sunlight for darkness is your only friend
you must survive no matter what until this war ends
do not feel guitly for the people now dead
they were going to kill you, remember the old quote said
all is fair in love and war and war it is indeed
any tool to survive is all that is in need
now lets move on to love a new kind of sin
doing anything for her to win
her tendernouse and love not knowing what you did
you killed lied and played the others after her in the compatition
you do not feel guilty remembering the truest quote
all is fair in love and war and love is what you value most
she will never know and you cant cheat
all the men that you have beat
love and war, war and love there is no difference
anything to live on is all men commence
so if you come across a man in love or war remember their only quote
all is fair in love and war and they will always boast
that there are no rules so there is no way to cheat
so if you come across a man in love or war, stay out of the way or you surely will be beat
