Music Is Everything

© Jbizzy

Published on March 2011

Music travels all around my body
Now I can say it's living right through me
Listening to music puts me in a good mood
It makes me want to stand up and start to groove

Music can make me forget all of my pain
It brings out the sun when I can only see the rain
I put on my headphones and play all of my songs
I could listen to it all day long

Music takes me to another place
Higher than the sky and far away from the space
There's nothing to compare to it in the whole world
It wouldn't even be better than my favorite girl

Music can teach you many lessons
Like stand up for your rights and all the good reasons
I know there's people who thinks the same way
Because they know music lives in us everyday
