Apparently I have not been getting the message to believe in or trust myself quite as much as I should. I mean this is something that I have been working on over the last few years. I think what the problem is for myself is that sometimes I don’t like the answers that my intuition gives me and therefore I go against it. The more in tune with myself I get, the clearer that the messages get from my intuition. This process can make life a bit weird in many ways. When I listen to my intuition though I avoid many of the mistakes and unnecessary things in life.
This week’s song is another older song that came out in the 90's ( see a trend going on here...). I just threw this song on the newest playlist for the music I put in my iPhone recently without thinking much about it. I didn’t realize till this week how relevant it is to what I have been focusing on lately in my life. Once I made the connection of course it made sense to play it many times during this last week. I have a feeling I will have it in rotation for a while.
The song is called “All Mixed Up” by 311 and it has a little reggae, punk, and pop feeling to it that makes it a fun little groove. I absolutely love the snare drum in this song because it is so punchy and tight. 311 is a band from the 90‘s that I never really got into more than their radio hits. Regardless they have provided me with a wonderful message and reminder for myself. So lets go right to the lyrics:
"All Mixed Up"
“You've got to trust your instinct
And let go of regret
You've got to bet on yourself now star
'Cause that's your best bet”
(This really is the best part of the song for me. Especially the trusting your instincts and letting go of regret. Easier sad than done of course, but I’m getting better.)
Watch me now with a wicked and wild and I said
We come with the funky style that gets us known for the show
And we'll mix the hip hop reggae if we say it is so
And fuck the naysayers cause they don't mean a thing
Cause this is what style we bring
Now it's morning but last night's on my mind
“There's something I need to get off my chest
And no matter what may come to shine
The dream will always be mine”
(This is important for all of us to remember that no matter what the universe throws at us it will always be your life, your dream.)
“All mixed up, you don't know what to do
Next thing you turn around and find the person is you”
(Life can turn you around and get you quite lost, but just when you think that you don’t know what to do...there you are again.)
Thought a freak might be the thing
But the first could be the last, so just getoff of your ass
All mixed up, you don't know what to do
Next thing you turnaround and find the person is you
Thought a freak might be the thing
“But you know this will pass, so just get off of your ass”
(All situations will pass. Especially when you get off your heine and take action to help you move forward.)
You've got to trust your instinct
And let go of regret
You've got to bet on yourself now star
`Cause that's your best bet
Watch me now with a wicked and wild and I said
Sick sickbit got to have it
Like bustin' in on a session but you got to call it quits
Sick sick bit just can't quit
Fact that you don't even know makes it fully legit
Now it's morning but last night's on my mind
There's something I need to get offmy chest
And no matter may come to shine
The dream will always be mine
You keepme coming,
That is a gal that'll kill dem stunning
You keep me coming,
That is agal that'll kill dem stunning
You keep me coming,
That is a gal that'll kill demstunning
You keep me coming,
That is a gal that'll kill dem stunning
You make me nervous, throat dry
My brain is empty, don't know why
But I saw you doing something
Which is really truly nothing
But you could bust me out all day
Many moons since first I saw you
Many moons since first we did the do
Many moons since first I saw you
Many moons since first we did the do
“And why did I try when I knew it was no and
Why did I try when I say it was so
But save it for late we should just let it skate
'Cause the waiting feel is fine”
(I won’t give details, but she was a flash in the pan and I knew it from the beginning. Just chose to take a shot anyways. *shrugs shoulders* Oh well. No regrets. I really don’t get enough credit for being as observant as I am.)
Intuition can be a powerful thing for sure. I’m pushing myself to listen more. I may not like the answers that it gives me sometimes, but I’m going to stop trying to go against it so much. I believe I’m not the only one that goes against their intuition. I guess it’s just human nature to do such silly things to ourselves. I don’t like it when my intuition is right at times, but I suppose in life it’s necessary.
As always I bring this to you with so much love and pure D-Lite. = )
