CALL ME AN ANGEL

All through April I wore a smile

The candle light in my heart burning high

But the cold wind gives my feeling the chill

It became broken but never ill

The grasses are greener this season

But I couldn't find water to quench the taste within

I’ve got no way out of this on my own

I don't think I can cope, can't hang on alone

Please, call me an angel to ease this pain

Maybe a touch from him will make my day sane

I don't want to be weary searching for love

All I ask is a kiss to my heart of his love

NOT LIKE YESTERDAY

You told me you are doing fine

Search your heart and tell me it's not a lie

Thought I'll find your smile between the stars

But it's blown away and left behind a scar

So I looked deep down the moments spent with you

Don't see you hugging me in my dreams, not like you used too

Why are you hiding your feelings behind a fragile smile?

Why you spending the night all alone, when I could lend you mine?

The storm's coming; please don't get your emotion tossed away

Don't need to change the way you feel about me today

I am not leaving without a piece of you in my heart stay

Can't let this guilt go astray, not like yesterday

I CAN

I can be who I want to be

If I can work hard will achieve my dream

Long days on the street hustling for a life deserved

Little kids from childhood need have a decent life

Life nowadays isn’t what it's meant to be

Struggling to make a mark in a world that’s crowded

The future is blurring but success I crave

Like the stars, efforts given will grow and thrive

Wouldn't let the distance get me weary of my dreams

I'll work hard, in no time get the heart wishes

The future's brighter with efforts here and there

I can make it and become who I want to be
