Post some lyrics of the song you like! If you don’t know them by heart, search them up and post them to! I love Sunday Best:

Ay, feeling good, like I should
Went and took a walk around the neighbourhood
Feeling blessed, never stressed
Got that sunshine on my Sunday best (yeah)

Ay, everyday can be a better day despite the challenge
All you gotta do is leave it better than you found it
It's gonna get difficult to stand but hold your balance
I just say whatever 'cause there is no way around it

E-e-everyone falls down sometimes
But you just gotta know it'll all be fine
It's okay, uh-huh, uh, uh
It's okay, it's okay

Ay, feeling good, like I should
Went and took a walk around the neighbourhood
Feeling blessed, never stressed
Got that sunshine on my Sunday best

Ay, somedays you wake up
And nothing works, you feel surrounded
Gotta give your feet some gravity to get you grounded
Keep good things inside your ears

Just like the waves and sound did
And just say whatever 'cause there is no way around it
E-e-everyone falls down sometimes
But you just gotta know it'll all be fine

It's okay, uh-huh, uh, uh
It's okay, it's okay

Ay, feeling good, like I should
Went and took a walk around the neighbourhood
Feeling blessed, (Ay) never stressed
Got that sunshine on my Sunday best

Ay, feeling good, like I should
Went and took a walk around the neighbourhood
Feeling blessed, never stressed
Got that sunshine on my Sunday best

Jenny Clark | 280 comments This is another Icon For Hire song I am obsessed with
Blindside
I've been underestimated my whole life
Can play it on the quiet side, but I'm not shy
And maybe I'm the flower painted on the wall
And maybe I'm the number that you never call
I've been waiting in the shadows way too long
Saving up my punches while I bite my tongue
I'm about to strike, gonna leave a mark
Take a seat, the show's about to start
'Cause you won't see me coming
But you're gonna know, when I show up, show up
Gonna make your head spin, make you listen
Yeah, you will know my name
From the shadow, to the spotlight
From the background, to the front lines
I'm a fire about to ignite, out of nowhere
I'm gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside (blindside, blindside)
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside (blindside, blindside)
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you
Feeling like a viper, finally shed my skin
Bet you didn't know I had it from the outside in
Counting down the hours, careful where you are
Watch your back, the show's about to start
You won't see me coming
But you're gonna know, when I show up, show up
Gonna make your head spin, make you listen
Yeah, you will know my name
From the shadow, to the spotlight
From the background, to the front lines
I'm a fire about to ignite, out of nowhere
I'm gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside (blindside, blindside)
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside (blindside, blindside)
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you
Blindside, in your blindside
You'll never know it's coming 'til it hits you
In your blindside, in your blindside
You'll never know it's coming 'til it hits you
In your blindside (blindside), in your blindside (blindside)
You'll never know it's coming 'til it hits you
In your blindside (blindside), in your blindside (blindside)
You'll never know, never know, never know
You won't see me coming
But you're gonna know when I show up, show up
Gonna make your head spin, make you listen
Yeah, you will know my name
From the shadow (from the shadow), to the spotlight (to the spotlight)
From the backrooms, to the front lines
I'm a fire (I'm a fire) about to ignite (about to ignite), out of nowhere
Gonna hit you, gonna hit you in your blindside
And gonna hit you in your blindside
(Gonna hit you, gonna hit you)
In your blindside

Jenny Clark | 280 comments I'm goanna show my age here,but I remember when this song came out LOL me and my bff danced to it all night ROTFL

Larger Than Life
Backstreet Boys

I may run and hide
When you're screamin' my name, alright
But let me tell you now
There are prices to fame, alright
All of our time spent in flashes of light

All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

Looking at the crowd
And I see your body sway, c'mon
Wishin' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon
'Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive

All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

All of your time spent keeps us alive

All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

Yeah, every time we're down
Yeah, you can make it right
Yeah, and that's what makes you larger than life

All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger
That makes you larger
That makes you larger than life

Jenny Clark | 280 comments You Were Wrong Icon For Hire
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
I thought we were one and the same
Us against them and their dumb little game
Well, I guess I got played, head in the sand and my heart on stage
Missed it, oh, so twisted, going to my grave all up tight fisted
Never mind I'm gonna be fine, too much on the line to sit and cry
Oh, oh, oh like don't you think I know
This is not the end of me, this is not the end of me
Oh, oh, oh like don't you think I know
This is not the end of me, this is not the end of me
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
Try to break me, try to break me
Make me
I don't really know what to say
Trying to keep track but everything's changing
And ain't it strange, you and me thought we'd be keeping the world in flames
But all we did was burn it all down
Burn it all down, burn it all down
Oh, oh, oh like don't you think I know
This is not the end of me, this is not the end of me
Oh, oh, oh like don't you think I know
This is not the end of me, this is not the end of me
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
Try to break me, try to break me
Make me
I don't go down easy
I don't bow out quiet
I never lost a war
Unless I didn't fight it
I don't go down easy
I don't bow out quiet
I never lost a war
Unless I didn't fight it
Pick my brain
Pick your poison
If I'm to blame then I ain't the only one
If I'm on the offense, well I'm not sorry
You haven't exactly given me reasons regarding
The way that you snap me in half, the way you stab me in the back
The way that you front to my face and keep putting me in place
But I ain't under your thumb, I ain't stuck in your shadow
I'm on top of the world up here fighting my battles
And I shoot to kill
I play to win and baby I will (will, will, will)
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
You were wrong all along, tried to break me, make me strong
Try to break me, try to break me
I don't go down easy
I don't bow out quiet
I never lost a war
Unless I didn't fight it
I don't go down easy
I don't bow out quiet
I never lost a war
Unless I didn't fight it

Love Like This by Lauren Daigle



When I am a wasteland
You are the water
When I am the winter
You are the fire that burns


When I am a long night
You are the sunrise
When I am a desert
You are the river that turns
To find me


What have I done to deserve love like this?
What have I done to deserve love like this?


Your voice like a whisper
Breaking the silence
You say there's a treasure
You'll look 'til You find it
You search to find me


What have I done to deserve love like this?
What have I done to deserve love like this?
I cannot earn what You so freely give
What have I done to deserve love like this?


Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah


What have I done to deserve love like this?
What have I done to deserve love like this?
I cannot earn what You so freely give
What have I done to deserve love like this?

Jenny Clark | 280 comments It Ain't My Fault by Brothers Osborne
Blame the whiskey on the beer
Blame the beer on the whiskey
Blame the mornin' on the night
For whose lyin' here with me
Blame the bar for the band
Blame the band for the song
Blame the song for the party that went all night long
But it ain't my fault
No, it ain't my fault
Mighta had a little fun
Lotta wrong got done
But it ain't my fault
Blame the heart for the hurtin'
Blame the hurtin' on the heart
Blame the dark on the devil
Blame the devil on the dark
Blame the ex for the drinkin'
Blame the drinkin' for the ex
Blame the two for one tequila's for whatever happens next
But it ain't my fault
No it ain't my fault
Mighta had a little fun
Lotta wrong got done
But it ain't my fault
I got my hands up
I need an alibi
Find me a witness who can testify
You made a mistake
You got the wrong guy
I'm only guilty of a damn good time
No, it ain't my fault
Blame my reason on my name
Blame my name on my reason
Blame my lack of knowing better on public education
Blame smoke on the fire
Blame fire on the smoke
Blame the fight on the bouncer that couldn't take a joke
But it ain't my fault
I got my hands up
I need an alibi
Find me a witness who can testify
You made a mistake
You got the wrong guy
I'm only guilty of a damn good time

Could Have Been Stardust by Sam Shore

I don't think that I'm being that selfish right now
You said it yourself you'd be breaking here without
I can understand you're tired of this town
And I'm not saying that we have to settle down now

Just remember this

We could have been stardust, same world but without us
Something made us, made us find each other out there
Made us realize we're more than just stardust
Ignore this fact if you must
To do what your dreams are telling you to do
And I'll be out there looking for
Someone like you, stardust, stardust

I'm the lazy one so I guess I should have known
You said yourself you wanna do this alone
What if your dreams are making it hard to think straight?
If you still love me I can wait, I can wait
And remember this

We could have been stardust, same world but without us
Something made us, made us find each other out there
Made us realize we're more than just stardust
Ignore this fact if you must
To do what your dreams are telling you to do
And I'll be out there looking for you
Someone like you, you, you, you

Hey! I don't think you're supposed to go
Maybe I'm just too slow
We should just lean together (yeah yeah)

We could have been stardust, same world but without us
Something made us, made us find each other out there
Made us realize we're more than just stardust
Ignore this fact if you must
To do what your dreams are telling you to do
And I'll be out there looking for
Someone like you, you, you, you
Yeah

Jenny Clark | 280 comments Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones

It's been brought to my attention, got my name on your lips
You been blowing dirt on it for days
Telling everyone my head is too big for my crown
'Cause when a woman wears it that's what they say

I built this kingdom from the ground up
Any castle is what it's made of, oh

Hurl your sticks and cast your stones
I sit higher with each blow
I know something you don't know
Your sticks and stones just forge my throne

Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones

I'm not after the attention but all eyes are on me
Feel my power, I think I'll let it reign
King of clubs, they'll want me dead
They'll be screaming, "Off with her head"
For the queen of harlots and deranged

I built this kingdom from the ground up
Any castle is what it's made of

Hurl your sticks and cast your stones
I sit higher with each blow
I know something you don't know
Your sticks and stones just forge my throne

Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones

Familiar places on her throne
Built off every insult thrown
Build a castle, build a home
Every traitor overthrown
Hell, there's no fury like me
Don't mess with her majesty
Well-behaved women rarely make an empire

An empire

An empire

Oh, hurl your sticks and cast your stones (cast your stones)
I sit higher with each blow
I know something you don't know
Your sticks and stones just forge my throne

Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones

Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones

Jenny Clark | 280 comments It's My Life Bon Jovi

This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for faith-departed
And I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice when I shout it out loud
It's my life
It's now or never
But I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just want to live while I'm alive
It's my life
Yeah, this is for the ones who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina, who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky, got to make your own breaks
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life
Better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down
It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just want to live while I'm alive
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said, "I did it my way"
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life
