This is a story, or every person’s story for that matter, of how I reached my wits end with cigarettes. It’s a story about how I started and how I quit smoking cigarettes. I got pneumonia at least once a year because of smoking. Not just because I had asthma though, because I’m sure others have even developed asthma with smoking. I got asthma at birth and shouldn’t have smoke in the first place. Anyways, this is mainly a message for younger adults and teens... I guess nowadays even children, that when people say smoking is bad, it’s not just a clichè. Smoking can and will kill you. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but it will catch up with you. There’s no reason to anyway.

This is a, I guess you could call it sad, song that I wrote in spite of how I’m on my third cancer scare now within two years and people have just kind of brushed it off because it’s my third one. This one is especially scary to me though because the doctor had already said he’s doing a biopsy. So I just wrote this to calm my nerves down and I hope that whomever partakes in these lyrics, if they or someone they know is going through something similar, I hope it calms them down as well. I didn’t write this song about me. Well, yes, it’s about me but it’s not just me. It’s for any other person; boy or girl, old or young, etc, to get the feeling that they’re not alone in this and if it is cancer, they can beat if they have the right mindset.

Having fun? or finding love? Waiting for the day I find love fun...

Inspired by a rainy night.

This is a very sad song about an eating disorder relapse and not just a relapse; becoming a part of the Pro ED society. Embracing her sickness, treating it like it’s her child, nurturing it. Then turning around and telling people it’s a good idea and they should do it too.
