Novas Perspectivas

Sempre disse que a música tem muita influência em mim, consegue alterar o meu humor e, frequentemente, põe-me a pensar nas coisas banais da vida. Não tão raramente quanto isso, faz com que chegue a algumas conclusões importantes, pelo menos para mim! A mais recente conclusão a que cheguei: I'm good, but the world isn't prepared for me. Como este post é essencialmente sobre música, deixo-vos a letra de uma música da Jennifer Lopez que gosto e com a qual me identifico em alguns pontos.

All I Have...

Love is life and life is livin'

It's very special

All my love...

Oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...

(Baby, don't go)

(Baby, don't go) Yeah

(Baby, don't go, uh)

(Baby, don't go) Yeah

(Baby, don't go)

(Baby, don't go) Yeah, yeah

(Why you act like that)

It's such a shame, but I'm leavin'

Can't take the way you mistreated me

And it's crazy, but oh, baby

It don't matter, whatever, don't phase me

Uh, uh, uh

I don't believe you wanna leave like this

I don't believe I just had my last real kiss

I do believe we'll laugh and reminisce

Wait a minute, don't bounce, baby, let's talk about this, man

Well, I'm bouncin' and I'm out, son

I gotta leave you alone'

Cause I'm good holdin' my spot

And I'm good reppin' the girls on the block

And I'm good, I got this thing on lock

So without me you'll be fine, right

All my pride is all I have

(Pride is what you had, baby girl, I'm what you have)

You'll be needin' me, but too bad

(Be easy, don't make decisions when you mad)

The path you chose to run alone

(I know you're independent, you can make it on your own)

Here with me you had a home, oh, yeah

(But time is of the essence, why spend it alone, huh)

The nights I waited up for you (Oh, boy)

Promises you made about comin' through

So much time you wasted

That's why I had to replace you

Uh, uh, uh

It makes a cat nervous, the thought of settlin' down

Especially me, I was creepin' all over town

I thought my tender touch could lock you down

I knew I had you, as cocky as it sounds

That's the way you used to giggle right before I put it down

It's better when you angry, come here, I'll prove it now, come here

Stop playin, you gamin'

I gotta leave you alone'

Cause I'm good holdin' down my spot (Stop actin' like that)

And I'm good reppin' the girls on the block (Now you know you need to stop)

And I'm good, I got this thing on lock

So without me you'll be fine, right (Here we go)

All my pride is all I have

(Pride is what you had, baby girl, I'm what you have)

You'll be needin' me, but too bad

(Be easy, don't make decisions when you mad)

The path you chose to run alone

(I know you're independent, you can make it on your own)

Here with me you had a home, oh, yeah

(But time is of the essence, why spend it alone, huh)

People make mistakes to make up, to break up,

To wake up cold and lonely, chill, baby, you know me

You love me, I'm like your homey

Instead of beefin' you come hold me

I promise I'm not a phony

Don't bounce, baby, console me, come here

Ain't nothin' you can say to me that can change my mind

I gotta let you go now

And nothin' will ever be the same, so just be on your way

Go 'head and do your thing now

And there's no more to explain to me, you no

I know your game and I'm feelin' what you do

So I'm bouncin' and I'm out, son

I gotta leave you alone, yeah, yeah

All my pride is all I have

(Pride is what you had, baby girl, I'm what you have)

You'll be needin' me, but too bad

(Be easy, don't make decisions when you mad)

The path you chose to run alone

(I know you're independent, you can make it on your own)

Here with me you had a home, oh, yeah

(But time is of the essence, why spend it alone, huh)

All my pride is all I have

(Pride is what you had, baby girl, I'm what you have)

You'll be needin' me, but too bad

(Be easy, don't make decisions when you mad)

The path you chose to run alone

(I know you're independent, you can make it on your own)

Here with me you had a home, oh, yeah

(But time is of the essence, why spend it alone, huh)

I promise you

You know what I'm sayin'
