experience something similar at any other concert I have been to. The different spotlight they used and the screens that played videos behind him on stage were done very well. Throughout the concert he played songs from Kiss Land most of the songs on his Album. He also played some of his more popular songs from his previous mixtape, The Trilogy. I was a bit disappointed that some of my favorites were left out. Tears in The Rain was one of my favorite songs on Kiss Land and unfortunately he did…
everyone. My student pastor, Will Riddle, told us how proud he was of us and how much he loves us. He explained how he wants us to continue growing in our faith each and every day.

He ran to the living room towards the coffee table and TV stand; not even the photo albums and home made cards the two had made for each other years ago were there.
