Everything Happens for a reason...they say
I haven't written in my blog as much as I use to...perhaps it's because I have something else in my life that helps me express what I'm feeling. Today, I felt I needed to stop and just blog a bit. I had a nice long ass conversation with Rose today. Something we often do when we end up sitting at the dining table together at the same time...REASON, SEASON, OR LIFETIME???I use to think about why everything happens in my life...never really finding an answer. Last year someone helped me figure out that "everything happens for a reason"...George explained to me that God has a plan for all of us...we don't really guide ourselves...we just have to follow the goodness of the Lord. Ever since then i have taken that to the heart. I question the existence of any occurence wondering why God has allowed such things to happen. I still wonder why God put certain people into my life...why they are who they are...why they aren't who I wish they would be. I wonder why he takes away people just when I need them the most. I wonder why I fall in love with certain people...I wonder. I always like talkin with Rose about these things...so often we forget to reflect and take a deeper look within ourselves in order to find who we are, why we are, how we wish to become. A couple of years ago I always phrased the questions as "In the future, how do you..." now it appears that the questions have become "in a couple of years..." It's scary but true. I can't diminish the fact that I'm 20 now. Life is not as it use to be and I am definitely not how i use to be either. I just don't understand and maybe I'm not meant to but all I know is that I see my future. Perhaps not very clearly but I see a future. I see a future with you...kids and a house... a dog and a basketball court in the yard...I see love and happiness...I see you. Maybe I'm being too vehement in this situation but I'm just saying I don't understand how I've gotten so lucky and perhaps I shouldn't question it...I do know that I really do want it to work...I just don't think I'm worthy of you.
song of the moment: one call away by chingy ft. jason weaver
Ooh, yea yea
DTP, how we do
Call you and you can call me
Whatever you wanna do baby
(You, could, roll, wit, me)
You call if you wanna bump over me
(If you was my baby)
I'm only one call away
It was weird how we met, huh
She was wit her mom in Bank America
I'm wit my son cashin the check
So I asked outta respect (uh)
Would she like to explore the world or buy
We can fly in my jet
Her reply was "Yes, can I ask you sumpin?"
I seen it in her eye, mama lookin like all I wanted was sex
Scene moved to the next (that is true) but it was something
about this girl's style that make me feel no regrets
We started off casual; walks through the park
Candle light dinners by dark, I'm thinkin smart (smart)
Of course she might think I'm in a rush
To touch, clutch and be up, but baby I ain't on that stuff
Dropped her off and told her call me up, we can talk
Conversate about political subjects whatever's thought
So I zoomed off, lookin by and my phone rang
It was her in the shower, (she said) she said "I couldn't do without ya"
Then I said. . .
(You, could, roll, wit, me)
You call if you wanna bump over me
(If you was my baby)
I'm only one call away
The next day I'm with the fellas at the case playin ball
Here she comes wit her friends they posted up on the wall
Now I'm showin off, trynta dunk trynta dribble break fast
Through the middle just to see her smile and giggle
Game over I punched her wit a kiss on the cheek
The homeboys lookin at me sayin "Lil Howard you weak"
But you know how that go, what I got they want
What I got I flaunt, never mess wit it, PLEASE don't
Told her "I'm going home" she asked can she go too
I'm like "Yeah boo, I can't see me without you"
Got thurr, I took a shower jumped out she in the bed
With a see-through thong said I looked at her and said. . .
(You, could, call, me)
You call if you wanna bump over me
(If you was my baby)
I'm always one call away
Girl recognize game, before game recognize YOU
You're dealin wit a player, TRUE
Now whatchu wanna do?
We can kick it and go puff on a bluuunt
Oh you don't smoke? Grab a pint of Hen' then we can get druuunk
It's up to you, I'm the man but baby just let me know
Cuz if you got an attitude I could treat you just like a hoe
Get to rollin wit me baby, hop in there's enough room
We can gaze at the stars that shine like the moon
Gimme a chance to show ya, and a chance to know ya
Just be true, and there's nothing I won't do, for ya
Some women like to play it foul (foul)
But them the kind I put in the place of a child (child)
Don't worry be happy and smile and. . .
(You, could, roll, wit, me)
You call if you wanna bump over me
(If you was my baby)
I'm only one call away
