Can you hear me
Yep
Come on friends Can you lift your hands
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh

Can I have a moment of your time
I'm going to come from my heart
I know what I'm about to tell you
Is going to hit you where you are
See I was raised in the church but I
Found a way to do my dirt
See I was a preacher's son and you won't believe the things
I've done but I said to myself you got to do better
You Can't keep living this way you got to get it together
When I humble myself and pray I knew God would listen
Today I can hear him say my son you are

Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
My past is behind me
I'm moving ahead
God has forgiven me
That old man is dead
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
That was yesterday
This is today
I don't care what people have to say

People always judging everybody else situation
But when the tables are turned suddenly they get the revelation
Nobody has the power to put you in a heaven or hell
I don't regret the things I've done
Cause now I got a story to tell
And there ain't no testimony
If you don't go through the test
And you ain't got no message
If you don't go through the mess
Just humble yourself and pray
And give God confessions
And you will hear him say my child you are

Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
My past is behind me
I'm moving ahead
God has forgiven me
That old man is dead
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
(Forgiven for the sins you committed?
And even though you did it)
That was yesterday
This is today
I don't care what people have to say

No I'm not innocent no
God know I've did some things yea
Somebody need to understand
That you can put your sins in the master hands
Now bow your head and repeat after me right now
Say father forgive me
I'm a sinner I need you
Come in to my heart and change my world around
Forgive me Oh Lord
Forgive me right now
I can't go another day
Living my life this way
You died for me
You rose and I confess you are Lord

Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
My past is behind me
I'm moving ahead
God has forgiven me
That old man is dead
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
That was yesterday
This is today
I don't care what people have to say
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven Oh

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
