I AM NOT A QUITTER


Feet thread a thousand miles
Bear the burden of the universe
Stumbled, yet raise and walk
Weary, but still can't give up
Chasing down cloudy dreams
I am not a quitter

If the world is destroyed
Life paddle but a star
I wouldn't give up a smile
Will hold on a firm to my gut
Don't matter if the cloud falls apart
I am not a quitter

If for a reason the heart is broken
I will pick up the pieces from the start
I wouldn't let my feelings go blind
I wouldn't let my pride worn out
Will live happier than ever had
I am not a quitter

No need to cry, the world owns me no dime
If life ain't satisfy, I'll find a piece of music to dance
No use gave up hope in a world not perfect
Pick up the things that make me happy
With spirit high and shout out loud
I am not a quitter

LEAD THE WAY






Father lead the way, I will follow
I've lost track of my path on the journey of life
My dreams tossed and turned with the wind
Thirsty, yet couldn't find water to drink

I am weary, threading in my own world
When I look up the sun, I couldn't find neither hope
So I am leaning all my efforts on you Lord
Don't come to tarry but stay in my life Lord

I need thy grace with me everywhere I go
I heard salvation is free, so am laying down my soul
I am tired of walking in darkness all my life
Take away my burden lord, also take away my strife

DON'T YOU EVER LEAVE ME








Right now I want you closer
Tell me all I need to do
Please don't take away the moon
I will change all my ways for you

I have done somethings that hurt you
Never did intend to hurt your feelings
Please pick up your bag and shoes
Lets take a walk, just me and you

Life is miserable whenever you are sad
Don't want your heart broken
Can you draw the curtain behind the past?
Stand by me and watch the morning smile

Take me as I am for a start
Look beyond my imperfection
Don't let the good time walk away
I need you back in my life to stay

My love for you is a weakness I can't define
I can't let go, even if loving you is a crime
All I really want is for us to live together happily 
Share love that makes a dream sweet and real
