Inspiration

Since I've become a new me, or started to change rather, my taste in music has always changed. When I was 18 you would have found a lot of gangster music on my iPod, even though I've never been anything like one. Now that I understand myself better I try to look for music that I can relate to, or that inspires me. These are some songs that either I just like a whole lot or they seem inspirational to me. I think that even someone who is not an avid hip-hop listener like myself might like something here.

(* asterisk means you might have to listen to the song more than once to understand it, as I did.)

Okay, I've decided I'm going to make this a series. Because if I keep going this will be a long ass post, there's too many songs I wanna put up. Also it's kind hard for me to think because I recently lost my iPod that had over 7000 songs on it :(.
