What I Want

Top ten things in my life I want
For these things continue to haunt
So here we go I start off with love
Someone to be there when push comes to shove
Next I want the pleasure to be crowned
A voice for the world of the undergrownd
Third I want an IPOD I cant afford it
Then I want sobriety, for the drug world I already explored it
Number five, I want enlightenment
To continually learn brings excitment
Six is so underrated
Keep the past and the present completly seperated
So seven must be to trust me
I want to know I can rely on my family
To be married to Shakira must be number eight
Baby if you dont want commitment at least give me a date
Number nine, I think I just want a nice car
And number ten I want to remove my scar
A scar left by my past actions
I hope you liked this I want your reactions
