[God Will Make a Way by Don Moen

God will make a way
Where there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me
He will be my guide
Hold me closely to his side
With love & strength for each new day
He will make a way
He will make a way
.
And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness.

Stay by Miley Cyrus has been a long time go-to for singing in my head when I'm really sad or in a bad mood. All the King's Horses by Karmina is my go-to for listening to when I'm in a sad/bad mood - beautiful melody and harmony always lifts my mood and makes me feel so satisfied.
Closer by Chainsmokers is one that peculiarly helps me focus when I start to sing it. The first word is "hey," and just that word alone gets rid of everything in my brain that I'm not supposed to be focusing on. Then I slide into the rest of the song and get stuff done.
I wish you a kinder sea --Emily Dickinson

Any soft music that relates to my problem at that particular time consumes and sticks at my head. All of my problems seem to fade away when the tune starts playing and my boys sways with the beats.

I happened to hear "High Hopes" before an important exam which ended up going very well. Since then, I've been listening to the song when I'm nervous or need to be cheered up.

Imagine Me by Kirk Franklin is a good one. Also, anything by Eminem makes me square my shoulders and behave tougher than I feel.

Any Harry Styles song, really. They instantly brighten my mood and I can relate to a lot of them. Therefore, I feel less alone and things kind of work out from then.

Every time I feel low, I play the storm is over by R Kelly. The mood swings from zero to one hundred real quick.
