Othello's IPOD






I know you're scared, baby
But, you gotta give me everything, yeah

Let me be the one who can take you
From all the things you've seen
And if you trust in me
I can be there for anything you need

And give it all to me, baby
Don't you run from me, baby
I'll give you every little piece of me
No, I won't leave out a thing, 'cuz I

I know you've seen a lot of things in your life
It got you feeling like this can't be right
But, I won't hurt you, I'm down for you, baby

I know you've seen a lot of things in your life
It got you feeling like this can't be right
But, I won't hurt you, I'm down for you, baby

Let me show you, love can be easy
If you just let it be
Nothing is promised, but I believe if
If you give it everything, trust

I'll give you everything that I've got
I won't stop until you get it right
All the trust and all the love
You know we got a lot, baby

I know you've seen a lot of things in your life
It got you feeling like this can't be right
But, I won't hurt you, I'm down for you, baby

I know you've seen a lot of things in your life
It got you feeling like this can't be right
But, I won't hurt you, I'm down for you, baby

I trust you, baby

I trust you, I love you, I want you, I need you
Baby, I breathe you, never leave you
Life wouldn't be the same without you

I trust you and I love you and I want you and I need you
Baby, I breathe you, never leave you
Life wouldn't be the same without you

I know you've seen a lot of things in your life
It got you feeling like this can't be right
But, I won't hurt you, I'm down for you, baby

I know you've seen a lot of things in your life
It got you feeling like this can't be right
I won't hurt you, I'm down for you, baby

I know you've seen a lot of things in your life
I won't hurt you, baby no, in your life
I love you, baby oh

In your life, I won't hurt you, baby no
In your life, I won't hurt you, baby no
In your life, I love you, baby yeah, oh


I chose this song because it says how in the beginning of the story how in love Othello and Desdemona are and how they are in control together. It also explains how Othello really feels about Desdemona before Iago came along. It Says how Othello wants top show all the love and affection to Desdemona and how he would never hurt her. It says that how he would never leave her.       

                             The greatest betrayal


I've never been that strong, never been the one to charge head onI'm afraid to let this in, I have to try before the light goes dim
We pledge ourselves to all of this?A broken promise? Just a lie? A target I can't hit?And is being strong depending on our blind faithOr is being gullible making us weak?
Now I'm scared, and I'm using you, hoping you will somehow pull me throughIt's only when all is lost I need your help and I'll pay any costWill I take all this back?
We pledge ourselves to all of this?A broken promise? Just a lie? A target I can't hit?And is being strong depending on our blind faithOr is being gullible making us weak?
Don't place on me this crown of thornsI'm happy now, no need to be reformedPlease don't trust a single word I sayBecause you know I will surely betrayYou know I will betray
We pledge ourselves to all of this?A broken promise? Just a lie? A target I can't hit?And is being strong depending on our blind faithOr is being gullible making us weak?

 I chose this song because it say how Othello feels in the beginning about the cheating scheme that Iago is planning on Desdemona. It tells how he feels that she has broken the biggest promise a women can make and  how he feels that the whole thing is now just a lie. It also is explaining how in the story Othello feels that he is going on blind faith of whether he should believe Desdemona or not.

Ave Maria


She was lost in so many different ways
Out in the darkness with no guide
I know the cost of a losing hand
Ever for the grace of God, go I

I found heaven on earth
You are my last, my first
And then, I hear this voice inside.....
Ave Maria

I've been alone
When I'm surrounded by friends
How could the silence be so loud?
But I still go home knowing that I've got you
There's only us when the lights go down

You are my heaven on earth
You are my hunger, my thirst
I always hear this voice inside....
Saying Ave Maria

Sometimes love can come and pass you by
While you're busy making plans
Suddenly hit you, and then you realize
It's out of your hands.....

Baby, you've got to understand
You are my heaven on earth
You are my last, my first
And then, I hear this voice inside.....
Ave Maria
Ave Maria
Ave  Maria


I picked this song because it shows how Othello was lost about the whole Desdemona sleeping with Cassio and how Desdemona is trying to tell him that she has snot and that he is her one true love and that she would never sleep around on him. I also picked this song because it explains a little of how Othello felt that he was alone even though he had so many friends but it seemed as if there was no one who he could truly trust because Iago was telling him all kinds of things about the people that trusted the most.

Strong will continue

All I do is stay focused
Lookin' straight forward at the world and beyond
I feel people pullin' me down, I feel some pullin' me up
I can't get stuck, I just keep movin' forward
I got places to go man, let's go

When the Armageddon's dark and dread
A lot of weak hearted weep and moan
Only the strong will continue, do you have it in you?
Come, we've got a journey to go

And when the battle get sour and dread
A lot of weak hearted wither and moan
Only the strong will continue, I know you have it in you
I know you have it in you

Hey, the victory's found in truth
Like innocence found in youth
Self defeat is your own dispute
And man, you put yourself in your own shoes

Either you're winnin' or losin'
Don't you get it confused
Play a star and you know your own movie
Playin' of the role you choose, so

Stand up and fight if you know that you're right
And know you will never fail
Tippin' the scale and the wind shall prevail
And the boat shall forever sail

Hey, there ain't no stoppin' or cruisin'
Even when you're battered and bruised
Hold gun all the sprinklers on Mt. Olympus
My gat tougher than Zeus

When the Armageddon's dark and dread
A lot of weak hearted wither and moan
Only the strong will continue, do you have it in you?
Come, we've got a journey to go

And when the battle get sour and dread
A lot of weak hearted wither and moan
Only the strong will continue, I know you have it in you
I know you have it in you

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
New York to Cali, for the money, power, respect
It's a journey, some will get left behind
'Cause in life, you cannot press rewind

Get it right, you only have one first chance
To make one first impression that lasts a lifetime
Reputation supersede itself
Do you believe in hell? Babylon greed for wealth

Do you deceive yourself and let your ego swell?
And disregard those who most need your help
Thick skin, the dark won't take my soul
Survive spiritual wars, see my welts

And the evil's felt but the faith is stronger
I saw grown men fall when I was a youngster
But I clench my fists, ready to go against whoever
Tie my timbs and rise in the end

When the Armageddon's dark and dread
A lot of weak hearted weep and moan
Only the strong will continue, do you have it in you?
Come, we've got a journey to go

And when the battle get sour and tread
A lot of weak hearted wither and moan
Only the strong will continue, I know you have it in you
I know you have it in you

No man live forever but never say never
Every good he want better, must be a go getter
And always be clever in every endeavor
Now drastic time call for drastic measure

Your girl try to pleasure from your neighbors, things sever
The land and the treasure, work for whatever
Jah said don't be a beggar, the Alpha Omega
Will bless every soul no matter which name you prefer

The immortal stepper, believe in every skin
No matter which color they are
We never let we don't know here which kind of weather
You're destined to rise like the son of Rebbecca
Don't stop for a second

Everyone reckon, it sure would be good to be there
Whether Zion or Mecca
When the gates are finally closed
And the saints go marchin' in

When the Armageddon's dark and dread
A lot of weak hearted weep and moan
Only the strong will continue, do you have it in you?
Come, we've got a journey to go

And when the battle get sour and dread
A lot of weak hearted wither and moan
Only the strong will continue, I know you have it in you
I know you have it in you

I'm a street lifer, always harassed by the C-ciphers
Chief-like, Geronimo with his peace pipe
I emerged from the street life
This for the homies who relate, know what it be like

My QB life
Taken and turned to the Louie XIII light
Twisted and mangled sorta like Bruce Lee life
Cursed with his son Brandon if that's you and me knight
I pray our fate's greater

I speak like I still matter as a rapper, not doubtin'
Even Toni Braxton signed a deal with Craig Kallman
How in, the hell am I supposed to stay comfy?
When I pay child support, alimony, monthly?

Got Maserati's and Ferrari's
Only like a woman whose a rider but only hoes want me
Single life crazy, niggas wives on me
I say stay faithful, they say their man corny

So I'm stuck with some married woman, so fine
Cheatin' while their husband rushin' on the 40 yard line
Wonder if this is what my ex did the whole time
Good niggas seem to always end up with some hard times, hope not

If a pimp slippin' in a hoe plot, ain't nothin' to it G
In a two-tone drop, kid
And it don't stop, see a nigga disappearin'
With the baddest honey's in the whole spot, yeah
                              
 I picked this song because it demonstrates how Othello is strong and a good commander to his people. It fits in where Iago told Othello that Desdemona is cheating on him with Cassio and how he is upset and feels that it is a biggest betrayal that any women can think of to her husband. It shows how at the end of act IV how he noticed  that Iago was pulling him down and how he was failing as a commander but at the same time he is still trying to fight for what he believes in even after killing his one true love. 


Death Before Dishonor  By; Tayzia

Ive loved you since the beginning 
And I vowed to love you to the end
But there is someone here
Saying your sleeping with a friend

I felt so hurt, so dead inside
Only until I found out it was a lie
But only after I killed my one true love
But its okay I will see you above


I have chosen these lyrics for this song because it basically tells the story from beginning to end in a short version. It explains how Othello had ponce loved Desdemona in the very beginning and how they had married each other . It tells how Iago came and messed up Othello and Desdemona's relationship after telling Othello that Desdemona was sleeping with Cassio and how hurt he was. And it tells how after he had killed Desdemona he found out everything was a lie.
