Work That Part 2

As many of my loyal subjects know music defines our kingdom. We live, we breath, we eat, we sleep music. It is what gets us through an arduous day of counting or brings clarity to a wonderful day like today. Many of you also know that for over the past two years one song, Take Me as I Am, has been our anthem. It has been the song we rose two, walked to class to, ate lunch to, and even went to bed to. With this one song MJB put into words what we believe is essential to a happy life: you have to love and accept yourself. However, you listen to a song over 500 times and it starts to lose its impact. It doesn't lose its meaning but it just doesn't provoke or inspire as much of a reaction as it did the first 200 times you heard it. So although many of you never thought this day would come I am removing Take Me As I Am from our daily playlist. Instead, will be rocking to Work That. In many ways Work That is Take Me As I Am on steroids. Its much less somber in tone but has the same message. It says you have to love yourself but you also have to more. You have to go out and live for you. Mary said it best.

I just want to be MYSELF
That's right just be YOURSELF

Let them get mad,
They gon' hate anyway
Don't you get that
Doesn't matter if you go along with their plans
They will never be Happy
Cuz their not happy with THEMSELVES

WORK WHAT YOU GOT

I am talking about things that I KNOW
Its okay to show yourself some LOVE
Don't worry about who's saying what
It going to be hard but work with what you GOT

WORK THAT! WORK THAT! DON'T HOLD BACK!
