“Circle of Life” lyrics
Music by Elton John, lyrics by Tim Rice Performed by Elton John

code From the day we arrive on the planet And blinking, step into the sun There's more to be seen than can ever be seen More to do than can ever be done

Some say eat or be eaten Some say live and let live But all are agreed as they join the stampede You should never take more than you give

//(Chorus)// In the Circle of Life It's the wheel of fortune It's the leap of faith It's the band of hope Till we find our place On the path unwinding In the Circle, the Circle of Life

Some of us fall by the wayside And some of us soar to the stars And some of us sail through our troubles And some have to live with the scars

There's far too much to take in here More to find than can ever be found But the sun rolling high Through the sapphire sky Keeps the great and small on the endless round

//(Chorus repeats)//

On the path unwinding In the Circle, the Circle of Life.

 * It's My Life lyrics**

It's my life It's now or never I ain't gonna live forever I just wanna live while I'm alive

(It's my life) My heart is like an open highway Like Frankie said, "I did it my way" I just wanna live while I'm alive 'Cause it's my life

This is for the ones who stood their ground For Tommy and Gina who never backed down Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake Luck ain't even lucky, gotta make your own breaks

It's my life And it's now or never I ain't gonna live forever I just wanna live while I'm alive

(It's my life) My heart is like an open highway Like Frankie said, "I did it my way" I just wanna live while I'm alive 'Cause it's my life

You better stand tall When they're calling you out Don't bend, don't break Baby, don't back down

It's my life It's now or never 'Cause I ain't gonna live forever I just wanna live while I'm alive

(It's my life) My heart is like an open highway Like Frankie said, "I did it my way" I just wanna live while I'm alive

(It's my life) And it's now or never I ain't gonna live forever I just wanna live while I'm alive

(It's my life) My heart is like an open highway Like Frankie said, "I did it my way" I just wanna live while I'm alive 'Cause it's my life! media type="custom" key="6735747"

 * /"I Can" //by NAS//**

//[Kids]// I know I can (I know I can) Be what I wanna be (be what I wanna be) If I work hard at it (If I work hard at it) I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)

//[Nas]// Be, B-Boys and girls, listen up You can be anything in the world, in God we trust An architect, doctor, maybe an actress But nothing comes easy it takes much practice Like, I met a woman who's becoming a star She was very beautiful, leaving people in awe Singing songs, Lina Horn, but the younger version Hung with the wrong person Got her strung on that Heroin, cocaine, sniffin up drugs all in her nose... Coulda died, so young, now looks ugly and old No fun cause now when she reaches for hugs people hold they breath Cause she smells of corrosion and death Watch the company you keep and the crowd you bring Cause they came to do drugs and you came to sing So if you gonna be the best, I'ma tell you how, Put your hands in the air, and take a vow

//[Chorus - 2x (Nas and Kids)]// I know I can (I know I can) Be what I wanna be (be what I wanna be) If I work hard at it (If I work hard at it) I'll be where I wanna be (I'll be where I wanna be)

//[Nas]// Be, B-Boys and girls, listen again This is for grown looking girls who's only ten The ones who watch videos and do what they see As cute as can be, up in the club with fake ID Careful, 'fore you meet a man with HIV You can host the TV like Oprah Winfrey Whatever you decide, be careful, some men be Rapists, so act your age, don't pretend to be Older than you are, give yourself time to grow You thinking he can give you wealth, but so Young boys, you can use a lot of help, you know You thinkin life's all about smokin weed and ice You don't wanna be my age and can't read and write Begging different women for a place to sleep at night Smart boys turn to men and do whatever they wish If you believe you can achieve, then say it like this

//[Chorus]//

//[Nas]// Be, be, 'fore we came to this country We were kings and queens, never porch monkeys There was empires in Africa called Kush Timbuktu, where every race came to get books To learn from black teachers who taught Greeks and Romans Asian Arabs and gave them gold when Gold was converted to money it all changed Money then became empowerment for Europeans The Persian military invaded They heard about the gold, the teachings, and everything sacred Africa was almost robbed naked Slavery was money, so they began making slave ships Egypt was the place that Alexander the Great went He was so shocked at the mountains with black faces Shot up they nose to impose what basically Still goes on today, you see? If the truth is told, the youth can grow Then learn to survive until they gain control Nobody says you have to be gangstas, hoes Read more learn more, change the globe Ghetto children, do your thing Hold your head up, little man, you're a king Young Princess when you get your wedding ring Your man is saying "She's my queen"

//[Chorus]//

Save the music y'all, save the music y'all Save the music y'all, save the music y'all Save the music

Imagine me and you I do I think about you day and night It's only right To think about the girl you love And hold her tight So happy together

“Land Down Under”

Men at Work Traveling in a fried-out combie On a hippie trail, head full of zombie I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said,

"Do you come from a land down under? Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover."

Buying bread from a man in Brussels He was six foot four and full of muscles I said, "Do you speak-a my language?" He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich And he said,

"I come from a land down under Where beer does flow and men chunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover."

Lying in a den in Bombay With a slack jaw, and not much to say I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me Because I come from the land of plenty?" And he said,

"Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah) Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover."

“Heal The World" 

There's a place in your heart and I know that it is love and this place could be much brighter than tomorrow And if you really try you'll find there's no need to cry In this place you'll feel there's no hurt or sorrow.

There are ways to get there if you care enough for the living make a little space, make a better place...

Heal the world, make it a better place for you and for me and the entire human race there are people dying, if you care enough for the living make a better place for you and for me.

We could fly so high, let our spirits never die in my heart I feel you are all my brothers create a world with no fear together we'll cry happy tears see the nations turn their swords into plowshares

We could really get there if you care enough for the living make a little space to make a better place...

Heal the world, make it a better place for you and for me and the entire human race there are people dying, if you care enough for the living make a better place for you and for me.

(repeat)
