I'm just trying to be... Happy~

Woo hoo! Forget about my sad and unhappy previous post! Well, not yet, at least... Lol~

If you've read it (my previous post), you'd know that I wasn't happy with who I am. But heck! I've totally forgotten! I'm Joey the Only! THE ONLY! F*ck y'all who made me think that I was and HAD to be a prototype of whoever you want your "perfect friends" should be. I am Me. Face it. I'm not gonna change myself just because you don't like me! It's your loss to be unable to appreciate me~ WAKAKAKA!!!

Well, there are some songs which I'd like to share with y'all...

When I was sad, this song reflected my status yesterday...

Rihanna's "Questions Existing" from Good Girl Gone Bad album (2007)

These lyrics touched me in a way:

"Take off my shirt, loosen the buttons and undo my skirt
Stare at myself in the mirror
Take me apart, piece by piece
Sorrow decrease, pressure release

I put in work
Did more than called upon, more than deserved
When it was over, did I wind up hurt?
Yes, but it taught me, before a decision, ask this question first

Who am I living for?
Is this my limit? Can I endure some more?
Chances are given, question existing
Who am I living for?
Is this my limit? Can I endure some more?
Chances are given, question existing

Take off my cool
Show them that under here, I'm just like you
Do the mistakes that may make me a fool
Or a human with flaws

And with them a loss, round of applause
Take the abuse, sometimes it feels like they want me to lose
It's entertainment, is that an excuse?
No, but the question that lingers, whether win or lose

Who am I living for?
Is this my limit? Can I endure some more?
Chances are given, question existing
Who am I living for?
Is this my limit? Can I endure some more?
Chances are given, question existing

Dear diary, It's Robyn
Entertaining is something I do for a living
It's not who I am, I'd like to think that I'm pretty normal
I laugh, I get mad, I hurt, I think guys suck sometimes

But when you're in the spotlight, everything seems good
Sometimes I feel like I have it worst
'Cause I have to always keep my guard up
I don't know who to trust
I don't know who wants to take me for who I am
Or who wants to be my friend for who I really am

Who am I living for?
Is this my limit? Can I endure some more?
Chances are given, question existing
Who am I living for?
Is this my limit? Can I endure some more?
Chances are given, question existing"

Wow. Amazing lyrics... Credits to Shaffer Smith, Shea Taylor, Shawn Carter for writing such a fabulous song... =)


Next, is a song that I think almost everyone in this world knows...

"Beautiful" by Christina Aguilera, taken from her Stripped album back in 2002

"Don't look at me

Every day is so wonderful
And suddenly it's hard to breathe
Now and then I get insecure
From all the pain, feel so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down, oh no
So don't you bring me down today

To all your friends you're delirious
So consumed in all your doom
Tryin' hard to fill the emptiness, the piece is gone
Left the puzzle undone, ain't that the way it is?

'Cause you are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring you down, oh no
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring you down, oh no
So don't you bring me down today

No matter what we do
No matter what we do
(No matter what we say)
No matter what we say
(We're the song that's outta tune)
(Full of beautiful mistakes)

(And everywhere we go)
And everywhere we go
(The sun will always shine)
The sun will always, always shine!
(But tomorrow we might awake on the other side)

'Cause we are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words won't bring us down, oh no
We are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring us down, oh no
So don't you bring me down today

Don't you bring me down today
Don't you bring me down today"


Beautiful lyrics, don't you think? Lol~

And so, I'mma live to the lyrics to this song... I won't let nobody bring me down... =)

hahaha


And finally, a really nice song that I'd love to share with y'all...

It's a new one from Leona Lewis, and I donno if you guys have ever heard of it... If you haven't; you should.

Leona Lewis - Happy, taken from her yet-to-release "Echo" album... can't wait!!

"Someone once told me that 'You have to choose
What you win or lose, you can’t have everything
Don’t you take chances, you might feel the pain
Don’t you love in vain cause love won’t set you free'

I could stand by the side
And watch this life pass me by
So unhappy but safe as could be

So what if it hurts me, so what if I break down
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place, I wanna hear my sound
Don’t care about all the pain in front of me
Cause I'm just trying to be happy, yeah
Just wanna be happy, yeah

Holding on tightly just can’t let it go
Just trying to play my role slowly disappear, oh
But all these days, they feel like they’re the same
Just different faces, different place, get me out of here

I can’t stand by the side, ooh, no
And watch this life pass me by, pass me by

So what if it hurts me, so what if I break down
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place, I wanna hear my sound
Don’t care about all the pain in front of me
Cause I’m just trying to be happy, oh happy
Oh

So many turns that I can't see
Like I'm a stranger on this road
But don't say victim, don’t say anything

So what if it hurts me, so what if I break down
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place, I wanna hear my sound
Don’t care about all the pain in front of me
I just wanna be happy, oh happy
I just wanna be, oh
I just wanna be, ohhh
i just wanna be happy, now happy"


Well... this song doesn't really reflect my life, but like the lyrics have said, I JUST WANNA BE HAPPY!!! HAHAHA!!

Erm... ok lah... seems like this post has been quite long enough... hahaha~~

Once again, a gentle reminder to myself, I am JOEY THE ONLY, and no one can, and will ever, change me... =)
