15 Lyrics for the Struggling College Student
Cliff & Debby

Everyone struggles, but some days are better than others. Especially for college students, we seem to have more tearful days lately than joyful days... (thanks finals.) But don't worry, there's plenty of inspirational ammo available to help you push through and own it! Below are some lyrics to help you know you're not alone, you're stronger than you think, and that you have the power to overcome any obstacle you might be facing!

1. Cold Water by Major Lazer

'Cause we all get lost sometimes, you know?
It's how we learn and how we grow

2. Awake and Alive by Skillet

I'll stand my ground and never back down
I know what I believe inside
I'm awake and I'm alive


3.7 Years by Lukas Graham

I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure.Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major.

4. You Don't Always Get What You Want by The Rolling Stones

You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes well you might find
You get what you need

5. Sold Out by Hawk Nelson

In a world full of followers
I'll be a leader
In a world full of doubters
I'll be a believer

6. Adventure of a Lifetime by Coldpay

Everything you want's a dream away
Under this pressure under this weight
We are diamonds taking shape


7. Colors by Halsey

You’re ripped at every edge but you’re a masterpiece


8. Already Gone by The Eagles

So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains
And we never even know we have the key


9. Glitter in the Air by PINK

Have you ever looked fear in the face and said, "I just don't care?"


10. Photograph by Ed Sheeran

I swear it will get easier
Remember that with every piece of ya


11. Try by PINK

But just because it burns
Doesn't mean you're gonna die
You've gotta get up and try


12. Hate To See Your Heart Break by Paramore

For all the air that's in your lungs
For all the joy that is to come
For all the things that you're alive to feel
Just let the pain remind you hearts can heal


13. Warrior by Demi Lovato

Now I'm a warrior
Now I've got thicker skin
I'm a warrior
I'm stronger than I've ever been
And my armor is made of steel, you can't get in


14. Try by Colbie Calliat

You don’t have to try so hard.
You don’t have to give it all away.
You just have to get up, get up, get up, get up.
You don’t have to change a single thing


15. Never Been Hurtt by Demi Lovato

But even if I lose it all
I've got so much left to give, I won't give up

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
