08/22/2021 – J-Dub's Grin and Bear It

Jim prompts us with sport songs. MY first thought was a line from Grease. When the principal says over the loudspeaker If you can’t be an athlete, be an athletic supporter. Anyways, moving on to my song today. I picked Let It Rock by Kevin Rudolf featuring Lil Wayne. It’s a song often played during T-shirt tosses or flight squadron demonstrations at basketball games. Any song that gets the crowd going is good by me.

I see your dirty face
Hide behind your collar
What is done in vain
Truth is hard to swallow

So you pray to God
To justify the way
You live a lie, live a lie, live a lie

And you take your time
And you do your crime
Well, you made your bet
I made mine

Because when I arrive
I, I’ll bring the fire
Make you come alive
I can take you higher
What this is, forgot?
I must now remind you
Let it rock, let it rock, let it rock

[Kevin Rudolph]
Now the son’s disgraced
He, who knew his father
When he cursed his name
Turned, and chased the dollar
But it broke his heart
So he stuck his middle finger
To the world, to the world, to the world

And you take your time
And you stand in line
Well you’ll get what’s yours
I got mine

Because when I arrive
I, I’ll bring the fire
Make you come alive
I can take you higher
What this is, forgot?
I must now remind you
Let it rock, let it rock, let it rock

[Lil Wayne]
Yeah!
Wayne’s World
Planet Rock
Panties drop
And the tops
And she gonna rock ’til the camera stop
And I sing about angels like Angela (rock)
And Pamela (rock)
And Samantha (rock)
And Amanda (rock)
And Tamara (rock)
Ménage à moi
I’m in here like, “Bitch, what’s up?”
Mechanic, me, I can fix you up
I can dick you up
I can dick you down
Shorty we can go wherever just pick a town
And the jewelry is louder than an engine sound
Big-ass rocks like on the ground
Dirty like socks that’s on the ground
Weezy

Because when I arrive
I, I’ll bring the fire
Make you come alive
I can take you higher
What this is, forgot?
I must now remind you
Let it rock, let it rock, let it rock

Just let it rock, let it rock, let it rock, let it rock

[Lil Wayne]
I’m back like I forgot something
I’m something
Ruling rock rubbin’ rap runnin’
Miles like I’m trying to get a flat stomach
Like Wayne the personal trainer
My aim is perfect I’ll bang ya
Period, like the reminder

[Kevin Rudolph]
I wish I could be
As cruel as you
And I wish I could say
The things you do

But I can’t and I won’t live a lie
No, not this time

And because I think dancing is a sport, here is a bonus video from So You Think You Can Dance

Y’all I’m exhausted. Running on fumes as they whoever they are say. Yeah buddy. I hit a wall bounced off and hit it again. But I’m gonna overcome this crap. I want to figure out how to deal with the pressure instead of bottling it all up until I break. Which is what happened this past Friday. Lulu Belle has the good sense to get me out ot the Botanical Gardens yesterday where magically I was cured. Not fully but enough to get a grip and start the climb back to a better place.

The SA Botanical Gardens are my happy place just like Fanick’s nursery and anything greenery. Dirt I like dirt! From as far back as I remember, lil Jilly making mud pies. I took several pictures and posted them all to FB. On WP, I only have the media which comes with the free plan. I’m at 70% full and if I delete to add new pictures, those posts get all twisted. But yesterday was so therapeutic for me that I am taking up prime real estate in bloglandia so my pictures can be uploaded here.
