another day
staring out of my window
thinkin bout tomorrow
wishing things would clear

no need to rush
i ain`t gonna worry
any moment my sorrow
is bound to disappear

sometimes i tell myself
i`m better off without you
and then i have to face the emptiness
i feel inside without you
and find a way to make it through another day

i need a way
to find the truth within me
accept the fact that i love you
my blue eternity


i hear they say
what doesnt`t kill you makes you stronger
i must have the heart of a lion
sifting through love`s remains

sometimes i tell myself
i`m better off without you
and then i have to face the emptiness
I feel inside without you
and find a way to make it through another day

my love for you is etched
forever in my memory
now i realize that life goes on
even though you`re not here with me
I wake up looking forward to another day
a day of living without you
just another day

Another day
Staring out of my window
Thinkin' 'bout tomorrow
Wishing things would clear

No nee to rush
I ain't gonna worry
Any moment my sorrow
Is bound to disappear

Chorus:
Sometimes I tell myself
I'm better off without you
And then I have to face the emptiness
I feel inside without you
And find a way to make it through another day

I need a way
to find the truth within me
Accept the fact that I love you
My blue eternity

I hear they say
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
I must have the heart of a lion
Sifting through love's remains

Chorus:
Sometimes I tell myself
I'm better off without you
And then I have to face the emptiness
I feel inside without you
And find a way to make it through another day

My love for you is etched
Forever in my memory
Now I realize that life goes on
Even though you're not here with me
I wake up looking forward to another day
A day of living without you
I can't stand to live without you
Just another day

I know that I was not the one
To let my feelings show
In any way that mattered
The moment I felt
She might mean something to me
I would just run away
I felt that love was for the fool
Would tarnish any jewel
Turn a diamond to simple coal
Because in all my life
I never met that someone to make me feel love
was right, alright
Chorus:
Now I'll do most anything for you
To bring your love
Back into my empty world
You're the only girl I'm thinking of
Though I'll never know why you left this way
I'll try to understand
'Cause the moment you will in my life
Made me better than I am
Now I see how issues from the past
Can manfest themselves
In your feelings for others
My bitter heart would poison loving souls of those
Who tried to come too close
And then you came into my life
And filled me with the strength
To face the pain inside me
Now that I've given you
The best part of my heart
I see you have your issues too
Your issues too
Chorus
Better than I am
I'm better than I am
Though I'll never know why you left this way
I'll try to understand
'Cause the moment you were in my life
Made me better than I am

Black Monday
That's what this joint is all about
Black Monday
A million men strong without a doubt
Black Monday
It's not just a role that one plays
Black Monday
So we can have justice one day
Black Monday
Black, Black Monday
Hey Yo, B - I thougt we conquered the world
When a million men came and shined like a
black pearl
This time there was no black on black crime
'Cause everybody was thinkin' of ways that pays for
the black mind
One & equal
Not thinkin' of wealth
but knowledge of self
So the past won't repeat like a sequel
Visions of unity
Strong in the community
The same song sung for diplomatic immunity
Is soon to be reality
Not just a formality, an actuality
Built strong by our morality
Can you see what I can see
One force that be lettin' me be what I be
Without costing me members of my family tree
One man can stand for all
But who got his back when he fall
Yo, I had a dream that one day
One million men stood strong and we called it
Black Monday
Black Monday
Black Monday
Black, Black Monday
By now we all know that some wrongs have
been committed
So be wise, organize my man
Yo, you with it?
Let's have the courage to stand up and speak out
Reach out and help out
No doubt
See we can actually make a difference
The politicians got game, but I say who are
they kiddin'
Seriously, we gotta get our own thing tight
'Cause we ain't even learned
to treat our own peeps right
You don't have to be a scholar to acknowledge
You shouldn't harm your own just 'cause your
fiendin' for dollars
That's messed up, so fess up
It's good for the soul
Repent
Change your ways
Exhibit more self control
We must be willin' to stop the killin'
'Cause if not
We'll destroy what our forefathers were building
Step up
Do something
It's your duty and purpose
All the material pleasures ultimately are worthless
Curses
They are not needed to explain that
You will wreck your brain
If you do not maintain
Reconciliation, restoration and resolution
Atonement
Completion of perfect union
Black Monday
Chorus

Never liked nobody
That's been mean to me
I've got a heart full of stone
And I hate the misery
Then you came along
Into my life
Destroying my mind
Mounting up the toil and strife
But I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you
But I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you
Guess I'll always be
And I claim it famously
'Cause I'm a fool for you
It's a doggone shame
Knowin' you don't love me
You go on and use me
So continuously
I don't know why
I love you like I do
When you're breaking my heart
And you know it's true
But I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you
But I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you
Doggin' me every day
But child, I'm here to stay
'Cause I'm a fool for you
You don't want me to stay
But I'm a fool for you

You don't want me to stay
But I'm a fool for you
Do me wrong now every day
Child, I'm a fool for you
Ah-ha-ha-hoo
I'm a fool for you
Ah-ha-ha-hoo
cause I'm a fool for you I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you I'm a fool for you
I'm a fool for you

you can never tell what's in a man's mind
and if he's from harlem there's no use of even trying
just like the tot his mind comes and goes
like march weather when he'll change

six feet underground
he allows me as no other could no no
then he surprises me leave me a note saying
he's gone for good
and since my sweetie left me harlem
well it ain't the same old place
though a thousand dandies smile right in my face
i think i move some hall maid who champ go out for a lark
just to drive off

angels from the sky stroll seventh of that
things i do from Madame Walker's beauty shops
to pro-system to
that may those girls angels without any doubt

its sudden death
to let somebody see you even stop to get trouble breath
if you never been to harlem then i guess you'll never know
how these mean note harlem blues

Drivers' Road ditty folk song call 'em
one thing you should know is that i have a friend
who lives there
i know he won't refuse to put some music to my troubles
and call it harlem blues
and since my sweetie left me harlem
