All of My Life - Phil Collins

A few lines from this song would give you a glimpse as to why it is on this list.

For the things I know I should have done.
All the things I could have said come back to me"

Man In The Mirror - Michael Jackson

A masterpiece by the legendary late MJ. Check out these lyrics, which portrayed social and economic disparity.

"That there are some with no home,
Not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me,
Pretending that they're not alone?"

Hurt - Nine Inch Nails

Although the name of the band is a bit strange, the lyrics of this song catch your attention instantly. An excerpt:

"Beneath the stains of time,
The feelings disappear.
You are someone else,
I am still right here."

Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd

Perhaps one of the most popular and hit numbers by Pink Floyd is Comfortably Numb. Great music and beautiful lyrics make this song worth collecting.

"My hands felt just like two balloons. 
Now I got that feeling once again I can't explain, 
You would not understand. 
This is not how I am.
I ... have become comfortably numb."

Eminem - Lose Yourself

Again, a few lines from a masterpiece sung by Eminem!

"You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo"

Over and Over - Nelly

This is a really good rap song with beautiful lyrics.

"When you said that you would leave
I was too damn stubborn to try to stop you or say anything
But, I see clearly now 
And this choice I made keeps playing in my head
Over and over again "
