I bow down
And I humble myself
I can't do this
Lord I need your help
All the material things
They feel like chains
If you're not here beside me
You're the reason I see

Help me to remember the way
I surrender
Help me to remember
Only you can show me
Only you can show me the way
I surrender
I surrender today

You are the only way
Lord, I need you.

India Arie Lyrics Psalm 23

2009-02-17T17:23:00.000-08:00

(Not yet released on the web)

I see
Money come between my best friend and me
I see
Old friends become new enemies
I’ve been
Through a couple of litigations
I’ve been
Through character assassination

They tried to put this stick in between my wheels
But they can’t stop my motivation
Nothing will

I walk through the valley where the shadow of death is
I fear no evil ‘cause I’m protected

No weapon armed against me shall prosper
‘Cause I’m walking with the heavenly father
And I do believe that I’m gonna prosper
‘Cause I’m walking with the prayers of my mother

You won’t get the best of me
Even though you broke my heart
I’m gonna pick up the pieces
You won’t get the best of me
Even though you broke my heart
I’m gonna pick up the pieces

I see
Maybe this isn’t the life for me
I was thinkin’
Maybe I should leave the music industry
I’ve been
Betrayed by the people I’ve trusted
I’ve been
Ooohhhh seriously disgusted

They tried to put this stick in between my wheels
But they can’t stop my motivation
Nothing will

I walk through the valley where the shadow of death is
I fear no evil ‘cause I’m protected

No weapon armed against me shall prosper
‘Cause I’m walking with the heavenly father
Hey! And I do believe that I’m gonna prosper
‘Cause I’m walking with the prayers of my mother
Oh whoa

You won’t get the best of me
Even though you got ma money
I’m gonna pick up the pieces
You won’t get the best of me
Even though you got ma money
I’m gonna pick up the pieces

You won’t get the best of me
Even though you broke my heart
I’m gonna pick up the pieces
You won’t get the best of me
Even though you got ma money
I’m gonna pick up the pieces

You won’t get the best of me
Because by the grace of god
I’m gonna pick up the pieces

Happy Valentines Day!

2009-02-14T18:51:00.000-08:00

Hope you all have a great V day!

My work was crazzzy with selling chocolate covered strawberries, which were oh so delicious!

Lots of Love to my appreciated friends and loved ones!

Everyone around me today wasn't really in the spirit, but I surely was. I think it's a cute holiday, not only for your spouse or signif other, but for anyone who's ever been there for you in your life. I think it's a great holiday for showing your love to your friends and family. It's a day of loving and being loved. Wayyy to many people in this world take advantage of the most important people in their lives. They let stupid things like fighting and money come between them, and that's just terrible. We need to thank others for their love & support.

Never take advantage and say "oh that will never happen to me" because it might, and it happens every single day. My heart goes out to anyone who has ever lost a loved one. For the pain is unbearable and will always stay with them.

After shedding a few tears while composing this message,
I once again hope you all had a great v day.

You are so blessed to be where you are and with whom your with.
Never stress the little things in life, it's not worth it.

Sincerely Yours,
Abby <3

http://www.meetkarina.net/

The young and beautiful Karina shows the world her vocal talent on her album 'First Love', which was released August 19, 2008. At age 16, she has conquered the music industry. Her beauty complements her amazing voice. Songs like "Can't Find The Words" and "Baby, Baby (featuring Lil' Mama)" are just two of the many popular songs off her album.

"I've been singing and playing piano since I was three," says Karina.

"While some have been quick to compare Karina Pasian to other performers including Aaliyah, Alicia Keys and Mariah Carey, one listen to her self-assured debut disc is evidence enough that she is destined for success.... Melancholic and truthful, funky and real, blissful and bold, Karina's album is the sound of a better tomorrow. "

Pleaseeeee, if you enjoy female R&B artists, you must go purchase this cd.

It is totally worth buying.
