"When I'm alone in my room, sometimes I stare at the wall." - Rick Ross

What else is there to do when you've got a load on your heart and mind?  I just stare and think about everything.  Sometimes I get a headache from all the thoughts running through my mind.  I suppose there's nothing wrong with thinking, but I guess it's what you think about that matters.  I reflect many times a day on where I want to be in the next hour, day, week, 5 years.  I think about my family members who I rarely see or speak to.  I think about friends new and old.  I think about what's next on my To Do list.  I enjoy contemplating in general.  What would I do without music to help express my thoughts and feelings?  A good friend of mine and I used to always laugh about there's a song for everything.  I still believe that statement to be true.  It's a good feeling to just let your mind run free and just sing and rock to the music.  There's no need for words; the singers say it all.

"All that bullsh*t is for the birds; you ain't nothing but a vulchur.  Always hoping for the worst, waiting for me to...  You'll regret the day that I find another [one], yeah." - Chris Brown

Can I truly say bye-bye to it all?  This may sound cheesy, but I want to chuck up my deuces to everything.  When the going gets tough, the tough pull through, but don't the tough want to escape sometimes?  I need a break from life... A nice drive in a sunny countryside followed by sitting on the hood of the car enjoying the breeze sounds a-m-a-z-i-n-g right now.  Maybe that'll happen one day, but for now it's back to the stress of real life - studying, writing, reading, performing, etc., etc., etc.

According to me, music soothes a troubled soul.
