Red

Who knew color could be a rap?

Check this out. I met a girl named Red home grown, corn fed. Turns out she's got this way about her but I'm the only one who knows somethin' about her. We went together for a couple three years and man I kept thinking about her over a couple of beers. She got me messed up like some kind of allergy always hitting me wrong like my paid vacation salary.

I'm some young kid from the 479 so what am I suppose to know about some young love that just ended up dyin? Man I ain't trying to start something you know she got me runnin already from this place I called home. So tell me Red what's it gonna be? Is it gonna be this life without me? You gave me a purpose I can finally see you made me love you since "Star Wars: Episode III." Take a grown man down to the movies, shit let's be honest my man that's some kind of trick.

Give Red all I had and she ran to her Dad and said I ain't lovin' this boy anymore he's just a fad. Hell you can give a girl all you got but man in the end it ain't worth the shot. So take your time and stand your ground or your place or you'll get a girl like red that ended up throwing me away like waste.

It's been awhile now since I seen her I heard now she's been working at the dry cleaners. Yeah, this stuff is what it's all about moving, going strong, getting out. But I can't help but notice that she's the color of blood maybe she's something I need or she's just a dud. But as I grew a little older my shoulders got a bit boulder and I tend to miss her this is true what I had with Red is what kept me from turning blue.

Some of you are wondering what you just read. Well, go back and read it like a song or some kind of rap. The other day I was listening to an interview from a list of well known rappers that talked about what got them started with rap. How did they come up with lyrics? G-Eazy is a platinum recording artist who would start out his lyrics about a certain someone but name her a certain color. He went on to explain how colors can go with anything and how it can transmit into certain emotions. That's like the color Blue represent sad or Red can mean love. The concept alone is neat so I figured I would try it out and see how cool it would be! Hope everyone enjoyed my attempt!

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.
