Incubus- Drive Title: Re: What is a good song to lift our spirits and encourage us? Post by: Whichwayisup on March 26, 2013, 07:12:38 PM I find a lot of strength in music, have maybe been too focused on the romantic notions in the past but at the moment, really powerful:
Alicia Keys - Brand new me... . (Incredibly powerful) Bon Jovi - Because we can... . (Even references black and white thinking) But there's lots of older tunes that I've found strength in the lyrics "tainted love"... .

Well maybe I give her too much credit for being self aware. More Uplifting songs.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=P48q2S7BgS4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P48q2S7BgS4) In this life I lead I plead no fifth on how I feel but drink a fifth of Henn to kill how I’m feeling I know it’s wrong but it won’t be long Until it all falls down. Woke up yesterday, coughing up cigarette smoke and head hurting Not much left to say, but that I’m going through a bad situation Once in my life I had to find, my way out of the dark so the sun could shine Not to promise but effort given, to make it better I’m trying In this life I lead I plead no fifth on how I feel but drink a fifth of Henn to kill how I’m feeling I know it’s wrong but it won’t be long Until it all falls down. (x2) It ain’t hard to say, that I’m going through a self confliction Maybe it’s where I stay, east coco that’s my true addiction I had to vacate to get my mind straight, off to the 808 to contemplate And I returned learning about the burn when in, the heat of this fire In this life I lead I plead no fifth on how I feel but drink a fifth of Henn to kill how I’m feeling I know it’s wrong but it won’t be long Until it all falls down.
