The word Ligaya is Tagalog (language of the Philippines) word for "Happiness." There are several versions of this song, but this one captures the meaning the most.
This song is about the truth. The moment we live is where we can find happiness. Neither the past nor the future can give us happiness -- we must live it now.
Gouryella - Ligaya
This is the first day of my life
For once I'm sure
That this is where I long to be
No need to know
If there is something more than this
No need to go
Cause there is nothing more than this
My future is so clear
Cause everything's right here
Inside of me
Inside of me
Music with deeper meaning. Self-Actualization, Growing Stronger, and Confidence Building through music.

Katy Perry - Firework
Great lyrics and Amazing video! Don't let your insecurities or doubts overshadow your light.
My favorite lyrics are:
Maybe the reason why all the doors are closed
So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road
Katy Perry - Firework
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind
Wanting to start again
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards
One blow from caving in
Do you ever feel already buried deep
Six feet under scream
But no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
Cause there's a spark in you
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July
Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gunna leave 'em fallin' down-own-own
You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow
Maybe the reason why all the doors are closed
So you can open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know
You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July
Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em fallin' down-own-own
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through
Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em goin "Oh, oh, oh!"
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

September - Satellites
A song about overcoming fear. Fear has a tendency to paralyze you. Even though yesterday was tough, today is a new day. Don't let fear hold you back.
September - Satellites
Even an angel can end up falling
Don't you cry, because you're crawling
Start again, it's a beautiful morning
For satellites
Well, they said it was time for changing
Rise and shine
Everybody's making it, but you
And they told you to trust your dreaming
But it's hard to believe a feeling
That you just don't know
Even an angel can end up falling
Don't you cry, because you're crawling
Start again, it's a beautiful morning
For satellites
Even an angel can end up falling
Don't you cry, because you're crawling
Start again, it's a beautiful morning
For satellites
You've been trying to walk on water
In the end everybody
Walked all over you
Now, you don't like the sight of mirrors
Cause you're scared that the face
You'll see, will look just like before
Even an angel can end up falling
Don't you cry, because you're crawling
Start again, it's a beautiful morning
For satellites
Even an angel can end up falling
Don't you cry, because you're crawling
Start again, it's a beautiful morning
For satellites
All I want is you
Let me take you back
Where you once belonged
All I want is you
It will be alright if you come along
You were never gone
Even an angel can end up falling
Don't you cry, because you're crawling
Start again, it's a beautiful morning
For satellites
Even an angel can end up falling
Don't you cry, because you're crawling
Start again, it's a beautiful morning
For satellites
Even an angel can end up falling
Don't you cry, because you're crawling
Start again, it's a beautiful morning

April (Villanueva) - Beat Goes On and On
Song about letting go of a bad relationship.
april (villanueva) - beat goes on and on
you know that you dont need him no
you're better off alone
so go and live your life
instead of waiting by the phone
your boyfriend is history
you should think about yourself
and you can rest, assured
jae e make the beat go on
and the beat goes on
and the beat goes on
and the beat goes on
and the beat goes on
and the beat goes on
and the beat goes on
and the beat goes on
so what, he promised you the world
you know he wasn't bout a thang
when you met him girl
he never gave you diamond rings and things
he didn't give you pearls
he didn't love you girl, no no no
so what, you gave him all your heart
you still got your self respect
keep your mind in tact. he was wack
you are my very best friend
and my big sister you will love again
and the beat goes on and on and on and on
sometimes things might go wrong
and the beat goes on and on and on and on
it seems much too long
still, and the beat goes on and on and on and on
you know you have to be strong
and the beat goes on and on and on and on
and on and on and on
so what, he didn't kick you down
you should of had your own cash
boyfriend was a clown
you need to get back in your books
you need to educate yourself
make that sacrifice for yourself
someday we'll look back on this time
and we will have a good laugh
so won't you dry your eyes, i'm by your side
you know i'm down till the end
and my big sister you will love again
and the beat goes on and on and on and on
you know the beat goes on and on
and the beat goes on and on and on and on
the world keeps spinning round
still, and the beat goes on and on and on and on
you got to roll with the punches everyday
and the beat goes on and on and on and on
and on and on and on and on
You know that you dont need him, no
you're better off alone
so go and live your life
instead of waiting by the phone
your boyfriend is history
you should think about yourself
and you can rest, assured
there will be someone else
feel good sister

and the beat goes on and on and on and on
the sun will come out tomorrow

Flyleaf - Tiny Heart
They made a comment about God giving you each breath and I couldn't help but hear this song in my head.
"Tiny heart
You're not by yourself
When will you recognize the beat
...Of my own heart
Making your blood flow
So that your chest can rise and fall"
In the absence of spirituality there is the feeling of death and void. One becomes self-centered and isolated when they disconnect from the universe around them.
Flyleaf - Tiny Heart
Tiny heart
Stuck inside yourself
When will you open up for me
I love you so
And want to meet you again
Before one of us must go
Your lips touched every hand but mine
In their shadows you slept fine
When will you get back to me
So we can rest
Tiny heart
You're not by yourself
When will you recognize the beat
Of my own heart
Making your blood flow
So that your chest can rise and fall
Your lips touched every hand but mine
In their shadows you slept fine
When will you get back to me
So we can rest
You will never know
What you have done to me
You will never know
Losing love from me
You will never know
A single day alone
Tiny heart
Stuck inside yourself
When will you open up
Your lips touched every hand but mine
In their shadows you slept fine
When will you get back to me
So we can rest
When you choose me
I'm waiting for you
Always waiting

Ayaka - I Believe (English Version)
A great English song about overcoming doubt from a Japanese singer. Her accent isn't perfect, but her vocals make up for it.
Ayaka - I Believe (English Version)
I Believe (English Version) Lyrics
Hidden where no one else can see
A whirlpool in my heart of my anxiety
So many roads to follow
Not really sure which one I should take
Anyway, I'm being me
For so long, I let others take me the way
Say goodbye to that part of yesterday
I believe myself
'Cause I know it's what I need
Everything begins when I believe within myself
Oh, I believe in me
The moment shining light I see
To the day we think I know that is where I'm gonna go
I believe
In front of me with my eyes
With eternal loving skies
I wanna know this feeling
oh beauty my love
I believe myself
'Cause I know it's what I need
Everything begins when I believe within myself
Oh, I believe in me
The moment shining like a sea
To the day we think I know that is where I'm gonna go
I believe

The lyrics make a great mantra. This song always gets me in a good mood!
Ferry Corsten - Beautiful
Everything is beautiful
Let the music carry you
Maybe I will follow you (forever)
Nowhere else I'd rather be
When you're lying next to me
Let the me music carry us together (together)

Deborah Cox - Beautiful U R
Great lyrics
"Beautiful U R" by Deborah Cox
It’s your life
Thing may not always go right, for you
In those times
Just leave it behind
Cause sometimes you gotta play the game
Just to survive
Without losing yourself
It’s a fight, it’s true
It takes time
Don’t have all the answers
No matter how hard it gets
Hold on to what’s inside
[CHORUS]
Don’t never let nobody bring you down girl
Don’t never let nobody tear your world apart
Look in the mirror and see who you are
Beautiful U R
In the dark
The paint chips have waited your heart
So deep
Can’t you see
See the light in the distance
Open up your eyes, look, look to the sky
And believe
There’s much more to life when you free
That’s the key
And in time
You will find all the answers
Don’t have to loose your pride
Hold on to what’s inside
[CHORUS]
Don’t never let nobody bring you down girl
Don’t never let nobody tear your world apart
Look in the mirror and see who you are
Beautiful U R
Don’t never let nobody bring you down girl
Don’t never let nobody tear your world apart
Look in the mirror and see who you are
Beautiful U R
Don’t care what they say anymore
There’s no time to be insecure
I leave it all at the door
She staring at him in the face
She’s taking it day by day
I’m finally on my way
[CHORUS]
Don’t never let nobody bring you down girl
Don’t never let nobody tear your world apart
Look in the mirror and see who you are
Beautiful U R
Don’t never let nobody bring you down girl
Don’t never let nobody tear your world apart
Look in the mirror and see who you are
Beautiful U R
Beautiful U R
Beautiful U R
Beautiful U R
Don’t never let nobody bring you down girl
Don’t never let nobody tear your world apart
Look in the mirror and see who you are

Lemar ft Justine - Time to Grow (J'ai plus de mots)
Beautiful French/English song.
When someone realizes it's time to let go of the past and move on towards new memories.
Lemar ft Justine - Time to Grow (J'ai plus de mots)
Last night I tried but I couldn't sleep
Un mauvais jour qui se lève
I was lonely and I needed you next to me
Quand la vie n'a plus de rêves
I never meant to do you wrong
Et c'est la fin qui resonne
I hope you won't be gone too long No
Where do I go
J'ai plus de mots
What do I do
J'ai plus le gout
I can't deny I still feel something
And girl, I wish
Et je sais que tu le sais
You've broken the bond
Meme si je t'aime
I gotta move on
Même si je saigne
But how do I end this lonely feeling?
You've gone, je pars,
I'm here, ailleurs, alone
I guess it's time to grow
Ce qui arrive, notre histoire restera inachevée
Like you never knew I was there
Tu te bats non seulement je préfère m'en aller
Can we make love re-appear?
Tes larmes ne vont plus rien changer
And now all is said and done
Il faudra nous reconstruire et apprendre à aimer
Where do I go
J'ai plus de mots
What do I do
J'ai plus le gout
I can't deny I still feel something
De reste jusqu'au bout
And girl, I wish
Et je sais que tu le sais
You've broken the bond
si je tais
I gotta move on
si je sais
But how do I end this lonely feeling?
You've gone, Je pars, I'm here, ailleur, alone
I guess it's time to grow
Crying time is over
Gardons de nous le meilleur
feelings If she won't return, then I guess I'll be a man and move on
Time to grow , And move on
Make life better than it was before
and move on
Make love better than I did before
(ne me retiens pas je pars)
Time to grow, And move on
Make life better than it was before
(je t’aime bien plus que tu crois)
Though you've gone , Je pars, alone
I guess it's time to grow
When someone realizes it's time to let go of the past and move on towards new memories.

Breaking Benjamin - I Will Not Bow
I just love the chorus to this song!
Breaking Benjamin - I Will Not Bow
Fall
Now the dark begins to rise
Save your breath its far from over
Leave the lost and dead behind
Nows your chance to run for cover
I don't want to change the world
I just want to leave it colder
Light the fuse and burn it up
Take the path that leads to nowhere
All is lost again
But I'm not giving in
I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away
Fall
Watch the end from dying eyes
Now the dark is taking over
Show me where forever died
Take the fall and run to heaven
All is lost again
But I'm not giving in
I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away
And I'll survive paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud
Cold blooded fate
I will shut the world away
I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away
And I'll survive paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud
Cold blooded fate
I will shut the world away
Breaking Benjamin - I Will Not Bow
Fall
Now the dark begins to rise
Save your breath its far from over
Leave the lost and dead behind
Nows your chance to run for cover
I don't want to change the world
I just want to leave it colder
Light the fuse and burn it up
Take the path that leads to nowhere
All is lost again
But I'm not giving in
I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away
Fall
Watch the end from dying eyes
Now the dark is taking over
Show me where forever died
Take the fall and run to heaven
All is lost again
But I'm not giving in
I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away
And I'll survive paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud
Cold blooded fate
I will shut the world away
I will not bow
I will not break
I will shut the world away
I will not fall
I will not fade
I will take your breath away
And I'll survive paranoid
I have lost the will to change
And I am not proud
Cold blooded fate
I will shut the world away

Jasmine - Bad Girl
Be proud of who you are no matter what others may say.
Jasmine - Bad Girl (translation [the original lyrics])
The clock’s hand strikes midnight, it never stops ringing
Surely, surely it never stops
You’re not bad, but I’ll throw you into a wall
Surely this won’t changed anything, yeah
Trying to find excuses only bruised my heart
I don’t know, I don’t know. I trampled my confusion
I can’t be myself. Running around feeling impatient, irritated
I can’t hide my wounded, shouting voice
*Even though they call me bad girl. I reply ‘so what?’
Even though they call me bad girl. If so, I’ll puff out my chest
This is my lifestyle and no one else’s
I’ll see it through
How can they feel? How can they see?
My own hands, my own eyes
How can I love them? I would never know how to love myself
My own voice, my own name
I get it, I get it. Someone’s words, softly
I get it, I get it. “You can find yourself in your mirror”
Hey, how should I live, protect and fight?
I want to notice you, you can’t hide
*repeat
I wanna be myself and find the light inside myself
I wanna be myself and proof why I am here
If I were born again, if I were born again
I wanna be me, I wanna be me, I wanna be me, once again
*repeat (x2)
Even though they call me bad girl (x3)

Eminem feat. Rihanna - Love the Way You Lie
This song and video are about a very common but hush hush problem -- domestic violence. Listen to the lyrics, they describe the volatility of this kind of "relationship."
I've been there, and it is not as easy to leave as others on the outside may think. Often the victim is so far deep into the brainwashing that they confuse reality with falsehood.
IF YOU OR A LOVED ONE IS IN A RELATIONSHIP WHERE YOU/THEY ARE BEING MENTALLY, PHYSICALLY, VERBALLY, OR SEXUALLY ABUSED, PLEASE CALL 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) OR VISIT www.thehotline.org
"Love The Way You Lie"
Eminem feat. Rihanna
[Chorus - Rihanna:]
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
But that's alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
[Eminem]
I can't tell you what it really is
I can only tell you what it feels like
And right now it's a steel knife in my windpipe
I can't breathe but I still fight while I can fight
As long as the wrong feels right it's like I'm in flight
High off of love, drunk from my hate,
It's like I'm huffing paint and I love it the more I suffer, I suffocate
And right before I'm about to drown, she resuscitates me
She fucking hates me and I love it.
Wait! Where you going?
"I'm leaving you"
No you ain't. Come back we're running right back.
Here we go again
It's so insane cause when it's going good, it's going great
I'm Superman with the wind at his back, she's Lois Lane
But when it's bad it's awful, I feel so ashamed I snapped
Who's that dude? I don't even know his name
I laid hands on her, I'll never stoop so low again
I guess I don't know my own strength
[Chorus - Rihanna:]
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
But that's alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
[Eminem]
You ever love somebody so much you can barely breathe
When you're with 'em
You meet and neither one of you even know what hit 'em
Got that warm fuzzy feeling
Yeah, them those chills you used to get 'em
Now you're getting fucking sick of looking at 'em
You swore you'd never hit 'em; never do nothing to hurt 'em
Now you're in each other's face spewing venom in your words when you spit them
You push pull each other's hair, scratch claw hit 'em
Throw 'em down pin 'em
So lost in the moments when you're in them
It's the rage that took over it controls you both
So they say you're best to go your separate ways
Guess if they don't know you 'cause today that was yesterday
Yesterday is over, it's a different day
Sound like broken records playing over but you promised her
Next time you show restraint
You don't get another chance
Life is no Nintendo game
But you lied again
Now you get to watch her leave out the window
Guess that's why they call it window pane
[Chorus - Rihanna:]
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
But that's alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
[Eminem]
Now I know we said things, did things that we didn't mean
And we fall back into the same patterns, same routine
But your temper's just as bad as mine is
You're the same as me
But when it comes to love you're just as blinded
Baby, please come back
It wasn't you, baby it was me
Maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems
Maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano
All I know is I love you too much to walk away though
Come inside, pick up your bags off the sidewalk
Don't you hear sincerity in my voice when I talk
I told you this is my fault
Look me in the eyeball
Next time I'm pissed, I'll aim my fist at the drywall
Next time. There won't be no next time
I apologize even though I know its lies
I'm tired of the games I just want her back
I know I'm a liar
If she ever tries to fucking leave again
Im'a tie her to the bed and set this house on fire
I'm just gonna
[Chorus - Rihanna:]
Just gonna stand there and watch me burn
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry
But that's alright because I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

Lyfe Jennings - Statistics
This song is soo true and I highly recommend it, especially for single women.
"Statistics"
Alright alright alright yall settle down settle down settle down.
If you don't know where you are this is STATISTICS 101
and I'm your teacher LYFE JENNINGS in the flesh baby.
Books out. Let's go!
[CHORUS]
25% of all men are unstable
25% of all men can't be faithful
30% of them don't mean what they say
and 10% of the remaining 20 is gay
That leaves you a 10% chance of ever finding your mate
That means you better pay attention to these words that I say
I'm gonna teach you how expose the 90%
and show you what to do to keep the other 10.
RULE #1
Don't be a booty call
If he don't respect you girl he gon forget you girl
RULE #2
If he's in a relationship
If he will cheat on her that means he will cheat on you
RULE #3
Tell him that you're celibate
And if he wants some of your goodies he gon have to work for it
RULE #4
Be the person you wanna find
Don't be a nickel out here lookin' for a dime
STATISTICS!
15% of all men got a complex
15% of all men don't practice safe sex
20% of them come from homes without a father
and there's a 50/50 chance that you'll marry a coward
Something to think about when you're taking a shower
Something to swallow when you're drinking bottled water
I'm gonna teach you how to expose the 90%
and show you what to do to keep the other 10
[REPEAT CHORUS]
Be patient! He's waiting!
You don't gotta settle for that
Leave what is past alone!
Get you a backbone!
Stop being (sorry for) yourself!
Have you no checklist?
It's gonna take patience
Time is still wastin'
Don't be a booty call
If he don't respect you girl he gon forget you girl
If he's in a relationship
If he will cheat on her that means he will cheat on you
Tell him that you're celibate
and if he wants some of your goodies he gon have to work for it.
Be the person you wanna find
Don't be a nickel out here lookin' for a dime.

Miley Cyrus - The Climb
Life gets hard sometimes, but keep on moving. Once you get over the rough spot, it doesn't seem so hard after all.
Miley Cyrus - The Climb
I can almost see it
That dream I'm dreaming but
There's a voice inside my head sayin,
You'll never reach it,
Every step I'm taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high
There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what?s waiting on the other side
It's the climb
The struggles I'm facing,
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes they knock me down but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on, cause
There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm going to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It's all about
It's all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

ItaloBrothers - So Small
This is a great song about not letting your problems get the best of you.
ItaloBrothers - So Small (Radio Edit) lyrics
What you got if you aint got love?
The kind that you just wanna give away
It's okay to open up
Go ahead and let the light shine through
I know it's hard on a rainy day
You wanna shut the world out and just be left alone
Don't run out on your faith
'Cause sometimes that mountain you've been climbing
Is just a grain of sand (Is just a grain of sand)
What you've been out there searching for forever
Is in your hands (Is in your hands)
When you figure out love is all that matters, after all
It sure makes everything else
Seem so small
it's so easy to get lost inside
A problem that's so big, at the time
It's like a river that's so wide
It swallows you whole
While you sittin' round thinking about what you can't change
And worryin' about all the wrong things
Time's flying by, moving so fast
You better make it count, 'cause you can't get it back
'Cause sometimes that mountain you've been climbing
Is just a grain of sand
What you've been out there searching for forever
Is in your hands (Is in your hands)
When you figure out love is all that matters, after all
It sure makes everything else
Seem so small
When you figure out love is all that matters, after all
It sure makes everything else
Seem so small
