My chinchilla on a voyage in the sea Seeing what there is to see Said she’d come and visit me So there I waited patiently But when morning came The sky was red That’s when I feared She might be dead But assuming it’s the death of me So I myself set out to C (chorus) Ms. Chinchilla where have you one You’ve been gone for way too long When you left you said be strong But I’ve been strong for way too long I went to where I saw her last Many years since then have past And on the shore I saw a ship Ignore this like and chocolate chip (chorus) For many years I searched for you and you just broke my heart in two Now I don’t know what to do Ms. Chinchilla where are you?

(intro) Now let me tell you something society about a young girl willing to lose her life to throw away everything she had strived for all because she felt ugly They whispered in her ear spread the poison to her soul She was forever lost nothing more than a zombie A zombie praying, pleading and begging god to let her be beautiful because for every taunt and tease the longer she would stay on her knees until they were bleeding raw Until the meat on her bones could no longer thaw the frozen heart that was slowly killing her She had internalized her oppression and believed in the misogynistic misinterpretation of beauty. Now you tell me, can she be beautiful? (Verse 1) Sitting on the couch, waiting for tomorrow and fearing life itself I am living, living life within my head Oh TV’s on, she comes on 5’7, her beauty is that of heaven She is emaciated on the outside starving on the inside Oh where is her pride (Chorus) Beauty, such an easy word to say Beauty, Am I beautiful Oh beauty, what an easy word to say Beauty, Am I beautiful (Verse 2) If I look in the mirror what will I see? A plastic Barbie with no feelings Aren’t I just a human being, why can’t society accept me? Society just let me be me Just me. (Chorus) (Rap/Breakdown) I’m chubby and I am fine with that Don’t need no regulations telling me what I can or cannot do that I’m too fat I have a free and open mind that I decide rather than to waste my time and focus on those photoshopped beauties I have a duty to me and my sisters whether they be brown black or any color to love me. To know in the knee deep of my gut that beauty lies deep within the eye of the beholder DaVinci did not paint the Mona Lisa just so that society could critique her She is a masterpiece but in society’s eyes she looks like a catastrophe having one too many twinkies for dinner Are you kidding me I am not going to be starving I wanna rise to the top not plunge to the bottom of that toilet seat leaving behind everything I have decided to eat There is a reason digestion occurs to nourish the mind, body, and soul. Oh beauty (Chorus)

Intro: Yea Yea Yea Yeaaaahh x4 I woke up this morning There was snow here, there, everywhere How perfect this day will be We could have a snowball fight With the girls across the street We will win the fight and have a party tonight! (Chorus) Let’s party Yea party We’re gonna have a party tonight! Verse: Let’s get ready for the party With streamers and balloons… Don’t forget the food! People started coming in, The party was so fun All my friends were there (Chorus)

Trying had all these years I’m going crazy messing with the musketeers I’m still waiting to figure out Why when they hear the music they can’t stop saying “Ya ya ya ya ya ya” Then you want to just stop moving So you just say “Ya ya ya ya ya ya” You want to stop going So you just say “Ya ya ya ya ya ya” You want to stop sayin “Ya ya ya ya ya ya” So I say they have fire in their hearts and eyes like a spider “Ya ya ya ya ya ya”

I awake in a perpetual motion unsure to where I stand All I know is the voices are calling me forward as the buildings rise from the land. (Chorus) We traveled play with yarn lay in the sun space battles fight the dog meow meow we won (verse 2) All around me a world begins to synthesize that's when I looked in the cat peoples eyes She told a tale of a voyage from a faraway place (Chorus)

VERSE (x2) When I look in the mirror all I can see is a lonely face. There’s a girl by the bleachers looking for another “hi” or “hey”. She used to be a legend now she’s just history. The first glimpse of paradise is the second you bail. CHORUS Ohh, oh-oh, oh oh, Oh Ohh, oh-oh, oh oh, Oh Ohh, oh-oh, oh oh, Oh-ohh
10.
I wonder why the thunder Is rising from the under so soon I think I might sink into The darkness and the gloom I don’t care You can stare It’s not fair My soul is bare That there’s rain it brings me pain In the dark we go insane In the depths of my mind There’s hidden pain that I find It feels like glass under my feet I would rather feel grass It smells so sweet As I sleep I can’t help but think Of what summer used to be I was splashing in the pool Living so wild and free I was drinking lemonade and watching lots of MTV During summer it’s so much brighter I’m a fighter I think through rain or shine Times get tough I’ll be fine

Wondering by Las Afrikanas Verse1:Jaya Oh I try and try to make you mines But i seem to fail every single time Is it me, or is it you? You don't seem to want what I do But if you ever choose to want a girl you should consider me I can be your friend, I can be your world, I can be all you need CHORUS: So why do you make it hard For me To see if you even want me I just wanna know please don't leave me wondering [x2] Verse 2: Lauren I know that love is real I can tell by the way you are making me feel I wake up in the morning and the sun is shining And i think about you all the time and thats alright But i wonder why you dont give me a try Baby its gunna be fine, you just gotta take your time CHORUS: So why do you make it hard For me To see if you even want me I just wanna know please don't leave me wondering [x2] Breakdown(Rap): Mawehyah Tell me how you feel Its not a big deal It will be okay if you just keep it real Its that super sonic That technologic, shock when you look my way oh boy you know that You can be my world If I was your girl Never say nevver I'll be by your side (oh) Take a chance on me baby you know you wont regret it I'm the type of girl that make you feel like you done one it Yeah me, your all i need And if you want me, then we were ment to be baby..
