*Nothings Real But Love - Rebecca Ferguson*
Standing in a line
Wonder why it don't move
Tryna get a hand
Watching people break the rules
And maybe the man in charge, doesn't like my face
But then this world's not always good
And nothing's real but love
Nothing's real but love
No money, no house, no car, can beat love...
They watch us open-mouthed
As we joke around like fools
See who can be the worst
Watch what I can do
But then the door gets slammed, slammed right in my face
And I guess this world's not always good
And nothing's real but love
Nothing's real but love
No house, no car, no job, can beat love...
It won't fill you up
No money, no house, no car, is like love...
La la la la la la
Yeaaah
I put it all away
Holding it down for a rainy day
But what if that day don't come
I need love

Tomorrow, Today....
Fitting words of Mr Kanye West...
They say people in your life for seasons
And anything that happen is for a reason
And niggas gun-clappin' and keep to squeezin'
And gran' keep prayin' and keep believin'
In Jesus, and one day that she'll see him
Till then in walk his footsteps and try to be him,
The devil is alive, I feel him breathin'
Claimin' money is the key, so keep on dreamin'
And put them lottery tickets just to tease us
My Aunt Pam can't put them cigarettes down,
So now my lil' cousin smokin' them cigarettes now
His job try to claim that he too niggaish now
Is it cuz his skin blacker than licorice now?
I can't figure it out, sick of it now..
Chorus:
And I heard 'em say, nothin's ever promised tomorrow, today
And I heard 'em say, nothin's ever promised tomorrow today
But we'll find a way
And nothin' lasts forever, but be honest babe
Hurts, but it might be the only way
With every worthless word we get more far away
And nothin's ever promised tomorrow, today
And nothin lasts forever, but be honest, babe
Hurts, but it may be the only way..

One Day At a Time
I love the lyrics to this song...
I'm only human, I'm just a man/woman
Help me believe in what I could be And all that I am
Show me the stairway I have to climb
Lord for my sake, help me to take
One day at a time
One day at a time sweet Jesus
That's all I'm askin' of you
Just give me the strength
To do every day what I have to do
Yesterday's gone sweet Jesus
And tomorrow may never be mine
Lord, help me today, show me the way
One day at a time
Do you remember when you walked among men
Well Jesus you know
If you're lookin' below, it's worse now than then
Pushin' and shovin' and crowdin' my mind
So for my sake, teach me to take
One day at a time
One day at a time sweet Jesus
That's all I'm askin' of you
Just give me the strength
To do every day what I have to do
Yesterday's gone sweet Jesus
And tomorrow may never be mine
Lord, help me today, show me the way
One day at a time
If needed, you can also change the word 'day' to 'hour'....
I'm only human, I'm just a man/woman
Help me believe in what I could be And all that I am
Show me the stairway I have to climb
Lord for my sake, help me to take
One day at a time
One day at a time sweet Jesus
That's all I'm askin' of you
Just give me the strength
To do every day what I have to do
Yesterday's gone sweet Jesus
And tomorrow may never be mine
Lord, help me today, show me the way
One day at a time
Do you remember when you walked among men
Well Jesus you know
If you're lookin' below, it's worse now than then
Pushin' and shovin' and crowdin' my mind
So for my sake, teach me to take
One day at a time
One day at a time sweet Jesus
That's all I'm askin' of you
Just give me the strength
To do every day what I have to do
Yesterday's gone sweet Jesus
And tomorrow may never be mine
Lord, help me today, show me the way
One day at a time
If needed, you can also change the word 'day' to 'hour'....
