Ooh Ahh the remix

Originally done by GRITS, the song "Ooh Ahh" was redone by Capital Kings for the 20th anniversary of Gotee Records. Personally, I like this version better, but I would love to know what you think? Did you even hear the original? Happy listening!

Start Over by Flame feat. NF

Right after I got back from the Grand Canyon, I watched this video for the first time and was able to recognize exactly where NF (the white guy :) is standing! So cool. Anyway, love the message of this song. Happy listening!

Everybody’s got a blank page
A story they’re writing today
A wall that they’re climbing
You can’t carry the past on their shoulders
But you can start over
Regrets, no matter what you goin’ through
Jesus, He gave it all to save you
He carried the cross on His shoulders
So you can start over

Don’t let your heart be troubled
Don’t be afraid
To the broken hearted that wished that they’d
Never been born, never been torn, never sinned, never disobeyed
I know you think there’s no hope, but that ain’t true
I know you feelin’ regret
(Like I) brought this all on myself
(Like I) messed it up big time, and this time I don’t deserve God’s help
(Thinking) how can God forgive me after knowin’ what I did (can He?)
After knowin’ that I hid from Him, and I stayed away and backslid
Jesus came for the sick (so true)
Jesus came for the weak (amen)
Jesus came to give good news and have set the captives free (amen)
Jesus came for the poor (amen)
Jesus came with the keys
Jesus came to remove the chains so the prisoners are released

Everybody’s got a blank page
A story they’re writing today
A wall that they’re climbing
You can’t carry the past on their shoulders
But you can start over
Regrets, no matter what you goin’ through
Jesus, He gave it all to save you
He carried the cross on His shoulders
So you can start over

See, His love is deeper than the ocean floor
Run to His arms like an open door
God the Father sent the Son
So men can come and be free and ain’t gotta run no more
Come to me, all who are weary; with heavy burdens, I’ll give you rest
Separated you from the sin, as far as the east is from the west
Thrown in the sea of forgetfulness
What sin? What offense?
And when them waves come crashing in, I’ll calm the winds in your defense
So, whatever it is that you’ve done
He put that punishment on His Son
You’ll never come under His condemnation... Satan and his accusations
So, dry your eyes, lift up your head
Hallelujah! God is not dead!
Plus He gave us His peace, and He took our guilt on the cross instead
Took our place and now we embrace
A clean slate with the eyes of faith
We know unfailing love, unfailing love, it’s not too late, start over

Everybody’s got a blank page
A story they’re writing today
A wall that they’re climbing
You can’t carry the past on their shoulders
But you can start over
Regrets, no matter what you goin’ through
Jesus, He gave it all to save you
He carried the cross on His shoulders
So you can start over

Someone Else by The Jellyrox

I heard this song on Yesfm and instantly loved the music. I also like the lyrics, although I would go a step further and say, yes, you need to like who you are, but that is because God made you, and He doesn't make mistakes. Also want to point out that there is no such thing as a living hell, because hell is separation from God. But, I understand the artist is trying to say things are really bad. Okay, enough from me. Happy listening!


LYRICS:
Well I catch my reflection like it's some kind of disease
Wish I quarantined my thoughts before they made it past my teeth
I walk outside and it feels just like the weight of everybody's eyes
Is wrapped around my heart so tight that it might cease to beat

And it's all just passing through, but sometimes

I wake up wishing I was someone else
In a different circumstance, with a different set of plans
And I feel just like the world expected someone else
Well I just wanna like what I see
I just wanna like being me

These failures I can't fix all feel like fire without the heat
Somehow the devil's guilty conscience found its way inside of me
'Cause I let everything I see convince me that I need
To be loved and liked and listened to by everyone but me.

And it's all just passing though, but sometimes

I wake up wishing I was someone else
In a different circumstance, with a different set of plans
And I feel just like the world expected someone else
Well I just wanna like what I see
I just wanna like being me

Don't get caught up in the feeling that the grass is always greener
'Cause you'll never find your meaning if you're not ok with you
And when you feel like life's a living hell, that's the one way you can tell
You only ever see yourself in everything you do
And life is not all about you.

Don't spend it wishing you were someone else
In a different circumstance with a different set of plans
Only you, can be the you, you were made to be
And I'm starting to like what I see
I'm starting to like being me

Fire by Krystal Meyers

Okay, so this isn't a new song. They won't all be new. I heard this song on Dance Praise and really like it. I've never heard her on the radio, so I really only know this one song, but she sounds good. Happy listening!
