MUSIC OF THE DAY... K'NAAN - 70 EXCUSES

Okay I've decided to dedicate this week to posting a few of K'naan's songs and today its gonna be 70 Excuses.

Mr Warsame in this piece he titled "70 excuses" was able to paint pictures with words to a melody just like every other good artist should...

 You could add your own lines to this great piece, you could also draw out your own meanings and interpretation to this song, it really is that broad...

I could've been a doctor were not for degree
I could've been a winner were not for defeat
I could've been richer were not for the taxes
I could've been a scholar were not for classes
I could've been a rebel were not for a cause
I could've been employed were not for the boss
I could've been loved

We could've been artists were not for the music
We could've been on time were not for excuses
We could've been diamonds were not for the penny
We could've been special were not for the many
We could've been patient were not for the waiting
We could've been committed were not for the stain
We could've been loved 

A LIL SOMETHING

I still love your views and cup your inner views
Got me playing detective searching for some clues
I wanted to take you home show you where I've grown
Coffee down in Kenya then the swimming Cameron
But you're in California working on your script
Young and beautiful just want to make the most of it
You could've been loved 

I could've been free were not for the past
I could've been first place were in not for the last.

We know how Excuses eventually leads to stagnation, yes! stagnation, we keep claiming that there's a barrier or obstacle up the road preventing you from taking the first step, when you could take that first bold step and cross that river when you get there!  and so we remain in that very position without making any progress at all.

Even the Holy Bible tells of a man... "a lazy man folds his hands and would not go out" to make a livelihood or a life out of himself because of an excuse "that there is a Lion in the streets" that man like every other illustrated in the song "70 excuses" would end up with regrets and wishing that he had taken that very first Bold step...

Whatever your dream is, start off now! why wait till tomorrow when you could actually do it today???
Why wait for the lion to die when you could actually see it dead! lolz!

Do not procrastinate! get rid of excuses and start off today!!! cheers!!!
