Do Not Forget The Sad Times
do not forget the sad times
make an album
of your tears
and fears
give them the captions
and tell yourself
i have learned, i have grown, i will learn some more,
i am strong, i want to be strong some more,
i have fallen, i am rising,
so do not forget the harsh times
the sad moments, recall them, relish them
learn, learn
surely, you will miss them again
your teachers leaving you some marks
A plusses
some more A+, sir and ma'am

Learn
when broken
learn
when happy
learn
when bored
learn
when you float and does not know what to do
learn just the same
when filled with idealism
learn
when fed with what you cannot swallow
learn again
when the times get rough and you want to kill yourself
learn, learn, learn
you still have many things to learn
faces of life
bodies of life
learn, learn, learn everything
do not surrender
for in truth, you do not do what you only want
you will also do what you are told to do
no questions asked
or you will be left out
or you will be not a part of the picture
this life
learn, learn, learn, always learn
do not surrender
live, learn, live, learn
you will soon do all that others will tell you
learn, learn and learn again
and sooner you will have learned everything
and then do what you want to do
with firm conviction
you know now what is right
and that is what you will do,
now without even being told
you have become yourself
but still learn, learn, and learn again
because
you might be wrong,
try thinking some more, learn
relearn, learn, learn, learn, forevermore....

Times Like These (One-Way Motorway)
I am a one way motorway
I'm the one that drives away
then follows you back home
I am a street light shining
I'm a wild light blinding bright
burning off alone
it's times like these you learn to live again
it's times like these you give and give again
it's times like these you learn to love again
it's times like these time and time again
I am a new day rising
I'm a brand new sky
to hang the stars upon tonight
I am a little divided
do I stay or run away
and leave it all behind?
it's times like these you learn to live again
it's times like these you give and give again
it's times like these you learn to love again
it's times like these time and time again

I' ll Always Stand Strong
here we are again
here it goes again
the night become a nightmare
when you are insulted me
it's like a lesson
a lesson to learn
it hurt but i'll take it
to make the best of it
tears won't make it better
fear won't make it stronger
i'll always stand strong
strong as god wanted me to be
i will not give up
when the world tries to bring me down
i got to keep going
i got to be strong
strong as a fighter
strong enough to learn the lesson
i'll always stand strong

I learn
I learn when I teach others
I learn when I listen
I learn when I read
I learn from children
I learn from animals
I learn from nature
I learn how to breathe
I learn how to live
I learn how to love
I learn how to be a human being
I'm always learning ...

The School Of Life
The place were much was learned; The School Of Life.
A far different place than papers, books, and homework.
The School of Life, is a never ending, when it comes to lessons.
In The School Of Life, I have learned, that not
all, is ever learned, or comprehended.
The School Of Life, often teaches one, some bitter and
disappointing lessons.
This school, reveals much in the way of surprises. Many
that of a happy nature and some, devastating.
Somehow, The School Of Life, teaches one, to keep going.
To try...try and try again. We learn that much is gained
through tenacity. We learn it matters not how many times
one is knocked down, for it is how many times we get
up, that is the test in this school.
We learn of mans inhumanity to man. We learn that in
helping our fellow human beings, there is much reward.
We learn, that The School Of Life, has no graduating day.
We learn, that we remain, an ongoing student of education.
The School Of Life, does have its rewards; a diploma of
knowledge, understanding and wisdom.
The School Of Life, better than any college in the world.
The School of Life, where knowledge is ones ticket to
anyplace in the world.
Learn ye well, for in The School Of Life, one does not
have the opportunity to repeat a grade.

Don't Forget (22nd)
Don’t forget those times we used to laugh
About your silliness and awkwardness
I so love that about you
Don’t forget those times we watched
Some epic gross movie, I enjoyed
The best part was- sitting next to you!
Don’t forget those times we felt so uninspired
Yet your presence lights my fire,
You gave me so much joy
Don’t forget those times we just sit and talk
Sometimes you sang, I listened,
I cherish that moment my love
Don’t forget those times we used to eat out
The best days we had together
I wish that more would come
Don’t forget my words to you
How great and good you are,
I will say it again, if ever you doubt
Don’t forget those times of long silence
Yet our hearts beat as one
I will miss your empty corner
Don’t forget those times I didn’t speak
I was praying for you, I was longing
To be near you
Don’t forget those times of sadness
I was teaching you to rise up,
so you would know what you want
Don’t forget this special time, I allowed
My heart to love, I want to talk
I want to know, how about you?
Don’t forget that all we have, is but limited time
Just talk, just ask,
I have been waiting all this time

Learn My Son
Learn my Son, my Mother said
From the things you’ve seen
To the things you have read,
For there is so much knowledge,
In our small World,
And when you learn it my son
It will become your pearl,
As you will shine it
And you will refine it
You will then display it proudly,
You will then profess it
A then you will confess it
And you will brag of it loudly.
Learn my son, my Mother spoke
As she talked from wisdom of age
As you can learn from many things,
Or by simply turning a page.
You can learn from a tree
If you would sit and watch a seed,
You can even learn from a poor man,
Just look upon his face, and you will be he.
Learn my son, my Mother cried
As tears came to her eyes
You can learn from tears and also smiles
You can even learn from a Child,
You can even learn, from me,
When I pass through my life,
You can learn from all men’s brothers
And why some only wish to die.
So take your knowledge and store it well
Protect it from all other men
For some Men need, what other men own.
And they will steal it as surely as you stand.
And when the years go by, and you're old and gray
In your mind many things will flow,
Some men have their wealth, many Men their gold
But their will be nothing more precious;
Than what you will know.....

When You Trust Somebody
Where should I turn
What should I do
There’s no one to trust
There’s no one left
They’ve all turned against me
I knew not to trust
When you mess with fire
You must get burned
I used to trust them
Now definitely not
I’ve never trusted before
Why should I start now
Every time this happens
And eventually I forgive and forget
But not this time
This time I will NOT forget
There’s only one person to trust
And that’s yourself
Yourself won’t share your secrets
Unless you want them to
Yourself will never betray you
In the end it’s you against the world
So you must learn to defend yourself
To automatically lock down your emotions
To never trust no matter what
Cause in the end
You will only get hurt
So now it’s just me
With no one to trust
I must learn to fight
To defend
And to never trust again
Cause everyone will turn their backs
Right when you need them
They’ll leave when you need help
They’ll ignore you
When you’re uncertain and need guidance
What are these so called friends
They are nothing to you
Like you are nothing to them
Friends are imaginary
Like unicorns and fairies
They don’t exist
They are made up
They’re just someone’s fantasy
Someone who still trusts
But that someone will learn
That there is no one to trust
I’ve learned my lesson
After being burned countless times
I’ve learned, have you
I will never trust again
Cause trust only leads to pain
And I don’t need anymore of that
So the next time someone says
TRUST ME
Look at them strangely
And laugh
Because you know what happens
When You Trust Somebody

Loving Power
Throughout the good times and the bad times that caused smiles or tears.
I need to say thank you because you have helped through
those times a lot over the last few years.
During those times you reminded that I should have hope.
To take those problems and I need to be strong and learn how to cope.
It is hard not to have you here but my memories of happiness
because of everything that it brings.
And I will always have you in my heart and it will remind me of a lot of things.
This is why my thoughts you will never go away no matter what hour
Because of you, I feel your Loving Power.

Forgive X
How do you forgive the fox?
How do you forgive the pain?
How do you forgive the sly?
From the one that hurt u all over again
how do you forget the lies?
How do you forget the blame?
How do you forget the damage?
From the one that was playing the game
How do you trust the truth?
How do you trust your heart?
How do you trust the fox?
Will you ever be able to restart?
How do you learn to trust?
How do you learn to forget?
How do you learn to forgive again?
Will I always live with regrets? ?

To the Students of the Workers' and Peasants' Faculty
So there you sit. And how much blood was shed
That you might sit there. Do such stories bore you?
Well, don't forget that others sat before you
who later sat on people. Keep your head!
Your science will be valueless, you'll find
And learning will be sterile, if inviting
Unless you pledge your intellect to fighting
Against all enemies of all mankind.
Never forget that men like you got hurt
That you might sit here, not the other lot.
And now don't shut your eyes, and don't desert
But learn to learn, and try to learn for what.

Oh Well, Ill Never Learn
Looking up at the sign
It said: please keep away
And so in I ran
You see ...
Ill never learn
Oh, Ill never learn
Ill never learn
Chapter one again
Here I go again
I found a fountain of youth
And I fell in
How could I ever win ?
Ill never learn
Ill never learn
Ill never learn
Why should I mind ?
Why should I care ?
Ill never learn
Ill never learn

Learn To Say Goodbye
(hugo montenegro / bradford craig)
When I close my eyes I can see your face
Tho I try I cant believe that you are gone
Theres a part of you thats a part of me
And no matter where I go it comes along
Reminding me of all the good times
And, of course, some of the bad
But then again, some of those hard times
Were the best we ever had
How can I learn to say goodbye
To the only life I ever knew?
Learn to say goodbye to you?
How can I learn to say goodbye?
Tell me - how do you expect me to
Say goodbye to you?
When I needed you, you were always there
You were more than love to me, you were a friend
They say that time is all that matters
And to live it while it lasts
But I cant stop from reminiscing
Or stop living in the past
How can I learn to say goodbye
To the only life I ever knew?
Learn to say goodbye to you?
How can I learn to say goodbye?
Tell me - how do you expect me to
Say goodbye to you?
How can I learn to say goodbye
To the only life I ever knew?
Say goodbye to you?
How can I learn to say goodbye?
Tell me - how do you expect me to
Say goodbye to you?

How Long
2+2,
Me and you,
Strollin' down the avenue,
I never knew that this was meant to be.....
And all those times we looked into each other's eyes,
I did it again, I did it again, I did it for you!
Holding on,
To a song,
I guess it's time we passed it on.....
Because one of us keeps changing everyday...
And all those times we told each other little lies....
I did it again, i did it again, I did it for you!
How long before we learn to live and fly away?
How long before we learn to live another day?
Woah-oah....
And all those times we broke our hearts despite ourselves......
I did it again, I did it again, I did it for you!
How long before we learn to live and fly away?
How long before we learn to live another day?
Woah-oah......

I Wonder
I'm sitting in my room
I'm looking thru the window
I see raindrops falling down
and I can hear the wind blow
I wonder where you are
I wonder what you do
I won't make it on my own
I need to be with you
And I wonder
Was our love not strong enough
To keep us going on
Tell me what I did wrong
Was our love not strong enough
To make you fall
Like I've fallen for you
Days are passing by
It seems I can't forget you
The teardrops in my eyes
Are showing that I miss you
I wonder where you are
I wonder what you do
I won't make it on my own
I need to be with you
And I wonder (2x)
Was our love not strong enough
To keep us going on
Tell me what I did wrong
Was our love not strong enough
To make you fall
Like I've fallen for you

Without Your Love
If I see you again
You might understand the way
That I feel
Though time after time I try
To explain the feeling was so real
And I want you to know time hasnt changed
When I was loving you then
The breeze of your lips
The warmth of your hands
One touch and Im flying again
I cant go on without you
Feeling this way about you
I just cant learn to live
Without your love
All I wanted from life
And learned about love was
Much better beside you
And I just cant forget
Learning to cry
The day I found out that
I had lost you
Though love is a game
And games always end
I just cant think of you
As a memory
All the days that you cared
All the love we once shared
Inside I cant seem to forget you
And cant go on without you
Feeling this way about you
I just cant learn to live
Without your love
I cant go on without you
Feeling this way about you
I just cant learn to live
Without your love
Though love is a game
And games always end
I just cant think of you
As a memory
All the days that you cared
All the love we once
Inside I cant seem to forget you
I cant go on without you
Feeling this way about you
I just cant learn to live
Without your love
I cant go on without you
Feeling this way about you
I just cant learn to live
Without your love

Grown Folks Continue to Roll Eyeballs
No steps should one take backward...
Unless they are in some game.
It's okay if something is to be learned.
If something from hindsight will change.
But some aren't prepared to learn at all.
Unless they qualify who teaches...
And why they should learn.
Leaving lessons missed,
With minds left twisted to drift.
And arguments over who has learned...
Anything at all.
Opportunities become stagnant...
And grown folks continue to roll eyeballs.
As if there was something in their heads connecting.

Moments
Come on love
Lets forget about all the things that weve done wrong
Just remember all of the things that weve done right
Im in no mood to argue and Im in no mood to fight
So let the tears pass you by
Dont you cry, dont you cry, dont you cry
And I aint gonna let this big world get me down
I gotta learn to keep a hold of my head and keep my feet on the ground
Moments of ecstatic happiness
And the moments of stress that we had better forget
But love, I gotta feeling that Ive said it all before
I said it before
I say Ill never do you wrong but then I go and do the same again
I dont know why, dont know why
Dont know why, dont know why, dont know why
We gotta learn to share these moments in our lives
And never let it get us down, we gotta put up a fight
Moments to remember all our lives
From the first brief hello to the last good-bye
I say Ill never do you wrong but then I go and do the same again
I dont know why, dont know why
Dont know why, dont know why, dont know why
We gotta learn to share these moments in our lives
And never let it get us down, we gotta put up a fight
Moments to remember all our lives
From the first brief hello to the last good-bye
