bye bye
This is for my peoples who just lost somebody
Your best friend, your baby, your man, or your lady
Put your hand way up high
We will never say bye (no, no, no)
Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins
This is for my peoples who lost their grandmothers
Lift your head to the sky 'cause we will never say bye
As a child there were them times
I didn't get it but you kept me alive
I didn't know why you didn't show up sometimes
It's something more than saying "I miss you"
But when we talked too
All them grown full things
Separation brings
You never let me know it
You never let it show because
You loved me and obviously
There's so much more left to say
If you were with me today face to face
[Chorus:]
I never knew I could hurt like this
And everyday life goes on like
"I wish I could talk to you for awhile"
"I wish I could find a way try not to cry"
As time goes by
And soon as you reach a better place
Still I'll give the whole world to see your face
And I'm bragging right next to you
It feels like you gone too soon
The hardest thing to do is say bye bye
(Bye Bye) [x3]
Bye bye
And you never got the chance to see how good I've done
And you never got to see me back at number one
I wish that you were here to celebrate together
I wish that we could spend the holidays together
I remember when you used to tuck me in at night
With the Teddy Bear you gave to me that I held so tight
I thought you were so strong
That you can make it through whatever
It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone forever
Your best friend, your baby, your man, or your lady
Put your hand way up high
We will never say bye (no, no, no)
Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins

the dilemma of desire... and the reality
i saw a pair of shoes that i like a few months ago, but i didn't buy it...
the next time i want to get a pair of shoes, i went back to the same place, but it's not there anymore.
i looked high and low with the hope of finding the same pair or something similar, but no such luck...
few months later, i found a similar pair. for the fear of missing it again, i bought it.
but, the more i look at it, i asked myself, do i really like it that much?
now... the question is...
do i want to look pretty in a pair of uncomfortable shoes, or should i settle for otherwise?
we think we do... but do we really know what we want?
as i reflect back, i realised that i've been trying to live up to a self fulfilling prophecy that is constructed by none other than yours truly.
what is the reality? whose reality? how is this reality significant to me?
i had the chance, but i did not grab it. i didin't know i want it so badly until i realise what i've been doing to find it. when i finally found it, and got it, it doesn't seem to be what i want. having it doesn't change the fact that i still don't have what i want... what am i looking for now?
