How is it you can hear a song one time and it has a lasting effect... Heard John Mayer's In The Blood and here come the tears... I am such a cry baby... I challenge you to listen and not be affected.
The thought that came to me while listening... Will what happened to me growing up haunt me the rest of my life or can I rise above it? "You will never amount to anything" "Can't you do anything right?" "Quit being so stupid"
Good news... At nine years of age I committed my heart and soul to Jesus Christ... I can rise above... Has everything turned out perfectly? Have I made major mistakes? When I dedicated my heart to God, did all the words, slaps, yelling magically disappear? No they did not... Have they had an affect and do they still sometimes affect me? Yes they do, BUT GOD. I was never promised a perfect life...It's all about taking what's happened with God's help and making something beautiful out of it. Using my past to help others with their future... Building a bridge of things past to learn and move forward to a great future

In The Blood - John Mayer
How much of my mother has my mother left in me?
How much of my love will be insane to some degree?
And what about this feeling that I'm never good enough?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
How much of my love will be insane to some degree?
And what about this feeling that I'm never good enough?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
How much of my father am I destined to become?
Will I dim the lights inside me just to satisfy someone?
Will I let this woman kill me, or do away with jealous love?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
Will I dim the lights inside me just to satisfy someone?
Will I let this woman kill me, or do away with jealous love?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
I can feel love the I want, I can feel the love I need
But it's never gonna come the way I am
Could I change it if I wanted, can I rise above the flood?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
But it's never gonna come the way I am
Could I change it if I wanted, can I rise above the flood?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
How much like my brothers, do my brothers wanna be?
Does a broken home become another broken family?
Or will we be there for each other, like nobody ever could?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
Does a broken home become another broken family?
Or will we be there for each other, like nobody ever could?
Will it wash out in the water, or is it always in the blood?
