What defines you?

Is it the way you dress? Where you work? How much money you have ? What kind of car you drive? Is it who you hang around with or what level you feel you are on social media? Are you defined by your past, making excuses for the way that you were conditioned by society? Or defined by who you will become in the future, because everyday we should be getting better. What have you learned new today? What defines you?

Don't

Don't allow yourself to become someones 2nd choice...you will always be 2nd.... Don't allow yourself to lose yourself in someone else.... you will always be lost... Don't allow people to make you uncomfortable... you will always be uncomfortable... Don't make excuses for the way you think... You think..the way you think... Don't allow someone to change your mood in a negative way... You will always give them that power... Don't allow someone to tell you how you feel... They will always control your emotions.... Don't let jealousy..envy or revenge into your heart... It will always live there if you do. Forgive those who have hurt you whether intentional or not... It will set you free.... Don't take yourself for granted... Others already do..... Please...please..do remember to always love you first... Cause if you don't..someone will cloud your vision with their version of love....

A Woman's Heart....

A woman’s heart is a delicate thing. Neglect to “feed” and care for it, and it will wither and shrivel up into nothing. Make too many withdrawals from it without making enough deposits, and it will soon become bankrupt. Bruise it, batter it, beat it up, and it will either go into hiding or morph into something ugly and destructive.

I paint a pretty picture....

Everyday she paints on a pretty face...splashes on beautiful fragrance and dresses so stylish. People think they have her figured out. As a teen she was rough around the edges an innocent product of her environment just wanting to fit in...she heard a sound that would completely change her life. A loud pop and then total darkness as she fell... Moments later she heard the sounds of a piano and angelic voices...she began to feel safe and warm...her mothers screams were drawing closer..It's time she thought...the bright light became more dense...she opened her eyes to see the shooter before he ran and felt her mothers hands grabbing her... Her legs were running and she felt mud all over skin...over time the incident was forgotten about and music never sounded the same. Introducing Ms. Lee

I promise....

I promise to be imperfect...Sometimes I hate combing my hair and painting my nails and face with colors that don't belong there.... I promise to be emotional....Without a reason I'm gonna cry and not want to be consoled.... I promise to be forgetful...There are so many things going on in my life that at times those little important things fall between the cracks and when my calendar alerts me...I ignore it... I promise to not make any sense at all...with all these daydreams swirling around in my head, who has time to always make sense? I promise that I will hurt you....Even if its unintentional because I may be so engulfed in my own reality that I will lose sight of yours cause all I am able to do is worry about me.... I promise that I will try.... I will try and stand beside you as a Queen with a Jesters personality and the spoiled attitude of a princess and a shrew. I promise one more thing...That I...Can only be me....

Today...Tomorrow...Forever....

I am passionate about music...About life....about honesty. My intentions are always to make a person feel good when they hear my music. It takes more muscles to frown than to smile. This path was chosen for me to share with all of you even if the subject content is not what you are used to someone singing in a song. Sometimes, there are hidden messages in songs.My messages are always clear, truthful and honest. How did you feel when you heard my music? Did you decipher the lyrics? Did you rock to the beat? Did you listen to it in a hurry? What did I say in a song and caught your attention? Was it the title....Now you know me... ~Ms. Lee

The Truth

The truth is.... I am human....I luv...I dislike...I want....I make decisions...I care....I feel....I see...I hear....

Throw it in the ocean.....

Sometimes...a person can run out of words to say, but then something happens and you figure it out. There is a rush of words swirling around in your head, and you have to carefully place them on your tongue. I choose to write instead...Its my way of getting out my feelings. I covered Drake's "Hold On (We're Going Home)" and those words were the words that I heard the loudest. Those words spoke truth to me and who I have become and what I want in my life. As an artist, it is tough to not carry your emotions on your sleeve, but that's what makes us human. Sometime I don't want to be human cause I hate some of the feelings that I feel in those strange moments. So what does a person do? Throw it in the ocean.....

One Moment Can Change Your Life

In a blink of an eye...your life can change. Your heart slows. Breathing gets shallow....your afraid. Its easy to just let go and give up. Something in you pushes you to get up...to make a little effort....You doubt yourself because your not sure. Then all of a sudden you gather your strength, the pain subsides, you wipe the tears from your face and you struggle a bit. But struggle turns into progress. Then you feel confident cause now you got it...You stand tall no longer afraid...All in one moment. One blink of an eye. Your heart pounds harder, you feel the bass in your feet. Show time.....
