The Elements (#WQW & Sunday Stills)

Hello Readers, 

The theme for #Sunday Stills is #Elements 

The first thing I thought of was Toby Mac’s Albumn “the Elements” – and the them song is here:

—

I overplayed that Toby Mac album a few years ago.  And somehow this joke unfolded to where we put the word elephants in for elements. Someone took their arm and started swinging it like an elephant trunk. so once in a while if that song comes on – we do the elephant truck and say “elephants”instead of elements.

Here are some of the song lyrics:

I lace the boots up, it’s straight to the door
‘Cause this, is worth fighting for
I get my head right, the heart’s gotta follow
Whisper a prayer like there ain’t no tomorrow
Take a breath, and I exhale slow
I wasn’t made for this kind of cold
This ain’t the kind of place that you wanna know
These are the elements, I’m telling you bro
This world, is up in my grill
This world, is shooting to kill
This world always gotta be stealing my heart
This world always tryin’ to rip my family apart (apart, apart, apart)

I’ll fight the elements (elements, elements, elements)
I’ll fight the elements (elements, elements, elements)
I got spirit, I got faith
I might bend but I won’t break
I’ll fight the elements (elements, elements, elements)

****

But my favorite line from the song is “if I go down – I’m a gonna go down swinging.” and that is for #WQW, which is communication this week – because songs sure can be powerful ways to deliver messages (and that is why I am careful with the kind of music I immerse with)- and blogging gives us a chance to communicate what works for us, eh?               

And I’ma gonna go down swinging,

if I go down

I’ma gonna go down swinging, if I go down
I’ma gonna go down swinging, if I go down
Let’s go

Elements, the elem-elements
Elements, the elem-elements
