My Personal Playlist I have picked a handful of song that show you what I have went through and overcame to make where I am today. So with that said I’m going to try and put you in my shoes and let you in on some of the unfortunate event that I have had to overcome. While you read further into my life there will be some ups and downs but you are going to be one of the lucky ones because there is only a handful of people that know this side of me!! With the song “Big Green Tractor” by Jason Aldean is going to be a good place to start. This is a song that really does hit close to home because since I grew up on a farm we have always had livestock and that means that you have to have a tractor to do all your shore. So I was always out there helping my dad putting out hay and everything else that needed to be done but I was always stuck running the gates for him but I liked to call it being “gate bitch”. I always went out to help because I felt that it was part of my responsibility to help my dad with all the chores because I knew he wouldn’t be able to do it on his own. When I was younger I always begged my dad to let me drive the tractor but he always said that I was to small that I needed to wait until I got bigger, so I waited but while I waited I would jump in beside him and ride along with him …show more content…

He was like a second father to me, I could call him up at any time and he would be there no matter what. He was my biggest role model because he never lost his cool with anyone, it didn’t matter how mad someone made him. He was great to me because I could always go to him with any problem I had and I know that he will always be watching over me because when I was younger I did a lot of things that I never should have

  • Song 'My Story' By Sean Mcgee: Song Analysis

    130 Words  | 1 Pages

    My first song I´ve chosen is Sean McGee, song titled My Story. Mainly the song is about him facing different struggles, obstacles, and all the horrible things and situations he´s been in throughout his life. I can connect to this song and the lyrics for many reasons. One of his lines were ¨Do you know how it feels to be left out in the rain¨? And I have faced times like this when I feel like no one is there or have my back, and in the line he´s trying express how it feels to have nobody and be all alone. Also throughout this song he expresses how everyday you wake up your face with something rather it's just a minor issue or something that will greatly impact your life.

    Another song that I thought a lot about when I heard it was "Grandpa was a Carpenter." I remember a lot about my grandpa and just like in the song Grandpa and me used to do everything together when I was little, and when he got sick, I didn't really understand what was happening because I was so little. I remember how as I got older he couldn't do much anymore.

  • Exit to Freedom by Calvin Johnson

    1059 Words  | 3 Pages

    During the summer of 1984, Calvin Johnson trudges knee deep through a swamp in the wetlands of South Georgia. As snakes brush past his legs, he marches in line with nine other men, each dressed in an orange jumpsuit, swinging a razor sharp bush axe in collective rhythm. His crew entered the swamp at dawn and they will not leave until dusk. Guards, armed with shotguns, and equally violent tempers, ignore the fact that the temperature has risen well above 100 degrees and push the men even harder. Suddenly, an orange blur falls to the ground and a prisoner from Wayne Correctional Institution lies face down in the swampy floor. As guards bark orders at the unconscious, dying man, Johnson realizes "the truth of the situation, and the force of injustice just incapacitates" him. It is then he decides he does not belong in the swamp.

    What are dreams? Some would say they are imaginations and fantasies, whereas others would claim dreams to be their aspirations, desires, and hopes, something they want to achieve someday. Aerosmith uses the latter group’s meaning of dreams in their song “Dream On”. The song exposes how one spends their whole life reaching the goals and wants that may never be all fulfilled, but continues to dream and hope, corresponding with the difficulties the band itself faced during the start of their career and how they kept trying to get to the top.

  • Commentary On The Song Mama By Boyz II Men

    208 Words  | 1 Pages

    This track was the hardest one only because I couldn't remember a song that represents my family. Instead I pick a song that only represent my mother. In 2008, on Mother's Day me and my niece was going through songs that we should sing to my mother and came across a very sweet popular song. It is called "Mama by Boyz II Men". I pick that specific song because it explains everything. For example, the first verse is "You taught me everything and everything you're given me" and "You were there for me to love and care for me when skies were grey". Those versus is true because my mom did taught me everything I needed to know and she also love and care for me no matter what was the circumstances. She even took risks for me me.
