Belong
Every time I step into a room I disappear-and even though you see my form still I am not here. I fell somewhere between the cracks-and I feel them getting wider-have you ever seen the world through the eyes of an outsider? "Belonging" was something that always fell beyond my range-the things that most defined as normal-I always saw them strange. I often stare at others-almost everyone I see-asking through a voiceless whisper, "Do you feel like me?" But no one quite admits it-at least they don't out loud-and people bleed to bind themselves and fit within the crowd. So where do I go from here? Don't tell me this is it-wherein lies the Promised Land for those who just don't fit? Is "belonging" an actual place that anyone can find? Or is it nothing more than a peaceful state of mind? IF SO, then I belong to those who love me-my friends and next of kin-I am also a Child of God so I must belong to Him. I belong to the earth-composed of dust as I stand here-I am Fire-Wind-Rain and Sun-I am a child of the atmosphere. I belong to all that's breathing-and that much I know is true-and even if I don't fit in-I still belong to you. And that makes us connected-at least from what I see-because if I belong to you-then you must belong to me. There is no separation of one from the other-and she is as much my sister as 'this man' is my brother. Hence I found my answer-I don't know if it's right or wrong-poetically speaking this is my summation of the world where I belong.

Wow
author: MyaFarewell Aaliyah made me cry...i was blown away by the emotion in the song, i could just imagine Aaliyah, her family all her memories passing like pictures fallin from a table gliding to the floor, each memory fading as it hits the floor. Aaliyah, sittin at a white table in a white gown staring from heaven's window at the world and how times are changin yet still people remember her life and legacy.

author: ElaineThis CD is great, I love the flavor, it has a touch of what I call early classic jazz as well as contemporary Jazz. It puts me in the mind of George Duke and many other greats. You did good Cori, keep up the good work and I wish you continued success!
