Gandhi

I keep forgetting to shave my legs.
My mom hates that.
But she's not in charge of me. 
When will we own ourselves completely?
Who knows.. 
I feel like my mom will own me until the day i die. 
I keep on seeing this bright light in my backyard. 
It never goes away. 
I wonder what it is?
As soon as you get close, It just goes off.
Hopefully tonight is not the last time i'll see the light because i think that's where gandhi is hiding out.

Blurbs




Pretty Girl - Priscilla Renea
Priscilla is singing to a girl who doesn't have any confidence and thinks she isn't pretty. She just won't be herself. Priscilla just tells her that if she sees what she is seeing she is a pretty girl, inside and out and that she is perfect.
Wrong man for the job - JoJo
She was in a relationship and thought she knew him so well and everything was so good in the beginning but now the flame is gone. Now that's she's out of it she realizes that she was in denial and he was the wrong man for the job and that needs to let go all though her heart it breaking but she needs to move on. She loves him but he's not the one.
Kleptomanic - Bruta
A kleptomanic is someone who steals. This song is about a girl who is highly addicted and will fool you from the start and then steal your heart away. It is a pretty brutal song towards this girl. It just goes on saying that she'll lie to your face and to get away if you see her. My perception of it is that the girl just had no emotion and doesn't care.
Say Goodbye - Chris Brown
Chris loves this girl but he can't do it anymore. He doesn't feel the same way he felt about her and he doesn't want to break her heart. He knows that they need to go their separate ways and there is never a right time to say goodbye but he's got to do it.
Should've Said No - Taylor Swift 
Taylor's boyfriend cheated on her. She finds out he says that he would take it all back and that it was a moment of weakness. She just goes on that he should've said no and she should of been there in the back of his mind and he would still have her.

Songs with stories

Runaway Love Ludacris


Plot: Ludacris tells the story of  3 young girls troubled life's and tells them to runaway with him to a happy place.
Characters: Ludacris, Mary J Blige, Lisa, Nicole, Erica.
Conflict: Lisa who is 9 years old, her mom's boyfriend sexually abuses her, Nicole who is 10 years old, her step dad physically abuses her, Erica who is 11 years old got pregnant by a 16 year old who bails out.
Theme: I think the song acknowledges some of the unfortunate situations that teenagers can be in and wants to send the message to teenagers they are not alone and that there is help out there. 
Setting: There a a few settings i picture a lot of them in broken down houses, empty streets and buildings.




Picture to Burn Taylor Swift

Plot: Boyfriend broke up with her, has a new girlfriend 
Characters: Taylor, Ex boyfriend and new girl. 
Conflict: Boyfriendless getting over him. Has a new girlfriend that he lets drive his truck and never let her.
Theme: I think the theme is to just get over ex boyfriends. Boys are stupid and a waste of our time so just get over it.
Setting: I picture her in her bedroom getting all of his old stuff and burning them.
