Mixed Tape

1. Second Chance By: Shinedown
     After going through all the drama and struggles of growing up, sometimes I believe that getting away from the problems that I must face will make it not easier, but better for me. I know their will be problems wherever I go, but I also feel as if separating myself from unnecessary drama  is a good decision. Also, I deal with a lot of crap from my parents, and so getting away from them would be nice. They hold me back, and put me down.

2. Roar By: Katy Perry
     I picked this song because although people put me down, and try to make my life harder, I will not back down. I refuse to go down without a fight. I know who I am, and what I stand for, and I will not let somebody else control me. I am tired of being the quiet child, who never stands up for herself, and I won't be that person anymore.

3. Bruises By: Train Featuring Ashley Monroe
     Everybody has faced some sort of problem or challenge at one point in their life. You cannot live, and not face a problem. I feel like these difficulties are what makes us who we are. They make us unique, and mold us into who we are. These "bruises" are what makes us empathize with others.

4. Demons By: Imagine Dragon
     I picked this song because every human being has struggles that they face everyday. I know personally that their are decisions that I have made that I truly regret, but I can't undo them, so I have to live with them everyday. Most days it isn't easy to face them, they haunt me, and the decisions that I make now. They haunt me too because no matter what I do, I can't forget them, and neither can others. They are thrown in my face, as if I don't feel bad enough, others have to make me feel worse.

5. Let It Go By: Tim McGraw
     I love this song because I feel like everybody can relate to it. No matter what demons haunt you, if you let it go, then you can move on with your life. It is not always easy, but it is important for people to not let their problems hold them back.

6. Titanium By: David Guetta
     This song describes basically everybody. People have to be strong to survive. The hardships that people endure make them stronger. This song describes that.

7. Numb By: Linkin Park
     This song speaks to me because in an attempt to please others around me, I lost sight of myself. I felt as if I was just there, and it was as if nothing mattered to me anymore. I was who everybody else wanted me to be. So, I had to do some soul searching to find myself. Now I live my life for me, and I am who I am.

8. Easy By: Rascal Flatts
     I love this song. It is so true. It is easy to go out and live life, and make people think you are happy. Anybody can put a smile on their face, but just because their is a smile on their face does not mean they are truly happy. It is not easy to make people think you are happy. The easy part is going out, and doing activities. Being happy in itself is not happy.

9. Oath By: Cher Lloyd
     This is one of my all time favorite songs. Anybody who really knows me knows that I love my friends and family with everything in me. I truly live and genuinely care about those that are close to me. If I say I have your back, then I have your back. So, I feel like this song just relates to me because that is the type of friend that I try to be to all of my friends.
