Here you go, jacket down Timbs off Remote control And there you go Off into outerspace Distant from me Where do you go?

Thug passion on ice? Or a glass of Merlot? I'll roll it up If you want I won't front I just need to know What you know Talk to me, break it down, spell it out for me baby Talk to me, break it down, spell it out for me Dee da da Be bim bim Bum bum bum di di bum didi dow...

When we first met, I was surprised to get...
That feelin... That feelin... the kind that don't wash away with soap. So sweet to me... Mmmmm......The kind of feeling I need... 2 get me thru my darkest days... For you I prayed.... What you do is Crazy baby, Not like you belong in an asylum /Crazy baby Like the sun in the morning and the moon at night, Like the rain falling from the sky. Like the trees growing from the ground, I'm astounded baby.. by your love for me, and you're touchin me, and you're trustin me.. like you do, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-wooo. Even now, I still feel that feeling....... Although, we've grown..... We're still on the same side Of the proverbial road..... Heading in the same direction I'm so glad to know.... With you I spend my time... What you do is Crazy baby, Not like you belong in an asylum /Crazy baby Like the sun in the morning and the moon at night, Like the rain falling from the sky. Like the trees growing from the ground, I'm astounded baby.. by your love for me, and you're touchin me, and you're trustin me.. like you do, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-wooo. (repeat chorus 4 x's).............Crazy baby. |

I gotta admit sometimes I feel week for loving you the way I do
It's beyond me I can't control it or force it to be, you know, what I want it to be I think about you so much when I'm with you and when I'm not It's deep, the way, just looking in your eyes just changes my whole perspective Nothing is more beautiful than loving you, holding you being next to you Kissing youir lips taking my time with you Nothing is more beautiful than loving you Holding you being next to you Moving my hips Moving in time with you Put of all the things in the world, god gave us to each other It's amazing You are the king I always imagined This is the bes time of my life. |

His name was Rasool
Carmel completed boy from the 22 Rough on the outside But on the inside he was cool Rasool was a king But also a fool Back on the block again with the same crew Tariq from the west side Little John form the avenue Always seen um bout a quarter to two Shaking hands with everybody But at the same time sharing the blues And oh how he passed it on Shaking hands till what was in his pockets was gone He'd be outside in the cold with his bubble goose on But inside I knew he wasn't warm Around 10:30 on that dreary night His bowaz said they were hungry they were hungry Wanted to get a bite But they didn't send a runner Rasool knew it wasn't right But he stayed anyway to get the chain he liked And oh how the shots rang in the streets Hitting everybody in the surrounding vicinity Children of the children One young father to be And Rasool lay dead in my north Philly Street At fifteen years old It was the first death I'd seen But the game ain't designed for no kind of winning And oh this is a friend of Rasool Telling you to think about what you do and who you call your crew The very choices you make May make a Rasool out of you Now you don't want that do you? |

*The little rain drops fallin' down on me
But I can't seem to feel it, feel it Feel it coming over me The rain gon' come through the window, pain will come Black, white, rich, poor, it's the same old drum Rainy days like the war, use wisdom as a weapon Hold your head up, dry your clothes and keep steppin' Let the children feel the rain, 'cause if they feel the rain From the wetness, they stand to gain I came into the game, it felt like the middle of June Music was warm, artists, like flowers, they bloom Then boom, I shook the room, many felt the thunder My time to shine, did it like summer I wondered if the sun would shine forever Pops said "rain gon' come", to him I said "never" Chedder in the genes, face on screens Got a benz wit' the sheen, but what did it all mean I earned money and burned money, credit cards smokin' Platinumn, grammys, famous, but still broke and Not having cash put me in check Yo, the road to the riches is slippery when wet Amongst the fall is where you truly find yourself Ever since then, the rain I never felt Deal wit' it *Repeat (x2) At age seventeen, the worst pain, a hurrcaine Her first name still conjuers the rain Vowed to never let nobody ever get me wet Lest we forget, love is a four season concept Many say the rain they can't stand Never let the weather determine the man God has a plan, from it I never ran Follow my heart through the storm, my umbrella in hand I'm Noah, life's my arc forty days and forty nights, still can't take my heart Seen the fallen man To dope and liquor brands The devil'll dance to make it rain Bringing the pain Walk through the puddles of struggle on flooded streets Soakin' wet, but mastered the art of peace Through grey skies, I grew wise, on bended knees I knelt Since then, the rain I never felt What's wit' it *Repeat (x2) Sometimes I sit in my room, stuff on my mind Stress, can't rest, so I open the blinds See kids in the streets, runnin' around It wasn't touchin' em, but the rain was comin' down I wondered how, with my mouth wide Reminisce of the key, said I wanna go outside In the rain, to see if the same would happen to me 'Bout that time, God started rappin' to me He said "pain is the mother of change, the rain must flow So the seeds of joy might grow Don't be afraid, find shelter in me The road to greatness, through the valley of adversity" I felt the light as He proceeded to drop the gem These little children, the world we must receive like them I just smiled, and thanked Him for the cards He delt And since then, the rain I never felt What's wit' it *Repeat (x6) |

His name was Rasool
Carmel completed boy from the 22 Rough on the outside But on the inside he was cool Rasool was a king But also a fool Back on the block again with the same crew Tariq from the west side Little John form the avenue Always seen um bout a quarter to two Shaking hands with everybody But at the same time sharing the blues And oh how he passed it on Shaking hands till what was in his pockets was gone He'd be outside in the cold with his bubble goose on But inside I knew he wasn't warm Around 10:30 on that dreary night His bowaz said they were hungry they were hungry Wanted to get a bite But they didn't send a runner Rasool knew it wasn't right But he stayed anyway to get the chain he liked And oh how the shots rang in the streets Hitting everybody in the surrounding vicinity Children of the children One young father to be And Rasool lay dead in my north Philly Street At fifteen years old It was the first death I'd seen But the game ain't designed for no kind of winning And oh this is a friend of Rasool Telling you to think about what you do and who you call your crew The very choices you make May make a Rasool out of you Now you don't want that do you? |

[Chorus: Jill Scott] Can you speak your words of bedtime I was just saying to myself the other day Most of believing the magician But you're bewitching Because of this I must say I (I) I (oh I) I Appreciate what you give to me Yeah (I) I (oh I) I Appreciate what you give to me [Verse 1: Common] People say I got soul look at all the records I hold The lives I've affected, connect and control With me in your basement, your mama got blown I provide the vibe to keep the strippers on poles Through me the black experience is glorious told From a school that's old bold, so I rock gold And platinum, so cats I hold notes and cash for them On streets I rap for them, in ghettos I blast for them Mash with them, at the party and all Peep the universal language that's embodying all Put the Billie Holiday, Bob Marley in y'all Y'all feel most high when I be in y'all System, with the rhythm I up jump the boogie Shame I rely on record labels to push me Since the bush, I been y'all way to escape Through eight-tracks wax CDs and tapes I am music [Chorus] [Verse 2] You can feel me all over alive, I help culture survive, I opened the eyes of many Styles y'all wrote in the skies, with your lows and highs, open your mind to hear me In the streets I beat cops and obsolete On every station it's hot you can't stop my heat I taught J and Dre how to rock the beat On what's going on today yo, I gots to speak I take the stand, yo you could feel me bam Whether in Larry Graham or Steely Dan Live I be killing it man For how long I survived yo I'm realer than man Got a soft side but I'm still a man For me women cry and children dance, I'm trying to eat I could'a got a mil and ran But like Sly for the fam still I stand I am music [Chorus] [Verse 3] I been here since the beginning Beginning of time yo beginning of time Deep in the mind of the ancient ones Everybody love me like they do the sun I shine at times yo at times I'm dark You can't categorize me, my mind's a art Inside my heart, it ain't about climbing charts I'm the one you roll with when your ride is smart The change that came, the change that comes I change with chords and I kick it with drums Get blow with horns and did it on the one Riffed for guitars, for the Lord I sung Spun around the world at parties and weddings Wherever I go I create the setting You know me from lessons or your pops collections Whether whole or half stepping I'm a blessing Yo I am music [Chorus 2X] |

Or is he too submissive? Or did I come along and hit you with the futuristic? Or is it cuz you really couldn't see a future with him All he bout is paper never took the time to choose or listen You wanna get gripped up, flipped and thrown And get strictly shown The way to get in the zone. Of course, Dealing with this you won't be taking a loss You need to leave him alone and roll With the one who's breaking you off Chorus 2nd verse Brother down the hall The one you bound to call Workaholics are really I'm rarely around at all What we started got serious reprecautions in court We had a chance to turn back, but look now it's what Late nights twistin something Listenin to Neicey sing She got the beef for you telling me you deeply Appreciate the company, time we spend I feel the same, it's a shame you ain't my girlfriend Cuz listen, you need a brotha with the physical fix Who come through in the mix For you with no head tricks or fraud You need a new position and who can get you open Like eucalyptus and have ready to go for yours Come on and wo |

I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More (Black Thought) You're physically in this, but how can we tell If we was meant to be in bliss if you're not mentally as well This energy you're sending me is tricky as hell Usually it's like a 50/50 we can take an L Before we start things At this point being apart brings The feeling of somebody plucking at your heart-strings I know it probably shouldn't feel like this But any other woman I see is in your likeness It's from your cheekbones... To your lips... To your curves... To your deep moans... To that walk... To your words... Your love feelin' like a breakdown on the verve First we on good terms, then you're on my last nerve Got my back just aching My Shoes is all tight It's too complex when we choose to do it right It's wrong One minute you a soldier - strong Then you turn around talking 'bout its over and gone. (i swear to god...)

You feel like you makin' a waste of Your precious time? - You need to get a taste of Some space to breathe, a moment as friends We shoulda felt ourselves slippin' into it again 'Cuz it's like Off and on, on and off Passion - Lost and found, found and lost Clashin', askin' for nothing but understanding Your heart's made of glass, use care in handling Girl - all-in-all I never leave you stranded 'Cuz my respect you commanded (you figure it out...) (Jill Scott) I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More (Black Thought) I used to come into the party And stand around 'Cuz I was kinda too shy to really get down I used to, play the corner And watch the scene Deep down, knowing I wanted, to find me a queen And I can feel that in my stomach And up in my chest Because I knew a lot of women, and some was fresh But then I found you, girl and just like me You had a heart that was yearning to be set free Now listen See you and me need to take the time To erase any doubt that's inside your mind Its not a mountain that I'm ever too tired to climb And who's counting? - But I know at least a thousand times I let you know I'm here for you, care for you, and confide in you Break bread, share with you and provide for you And that's full time - it's no 9 to 5 with you That's why I'm tryin' to work it out with you (Let's go.)

If you want it to happen baybay Hold fast and believe You can make it happen baybay You can be where u pleaze All you gotta do is try Then try once again Then try a few more times Then try after then When I was a little girl Raised on N. Philly streets I'd hear my people say Ghetto'z all they'd be But my mommy would hold me Quietly give me peace She'd look me in my eyes and she'd say to me Chorus As a teenager I dreamed to see the world But how could I do this me a poor black girl And just when my will was lost And all hope seemed set free I'd remember my mama's face and her tellin' me Chorus Try try try Try try try Try try try Try and try again (repeat) Now as a grown woman I still stumble and fall But wit a lot of faith and the same amount of effort I can withstand it all I dun see some thangs now and been a few places I'm now enjoyin' the beautiful world and the many new faces I say Chorus If you want it to happen baybay 6x |

Love rain down on me, on me, down on me Love rain down on me, on me, down on me Met him on a Thursday, sunny afternoon Cumulus clouds, 84 degrees He was brown, deep Said he wanted to talk about my mission Listen to my past lives. (Word?) Took me on long walks to places where butterflies rest easy Talked about Moses and Mumia Reparations, blue colors, memories of shell-topped Adidas He was fresh, like summer peaches Sweet on my mind like block parties and penny candy Us was nice and warm, no jacket, no umbrella, just warm At night we would watch the stars And he would physically give me each and every one I felt like cayenne pepper, red, hot, spicy I felt dizzy and so near heaven and miles between my thighs Better than love, we made delicious He me had, had me he He had me tongue tied I could hear his rhythm in my thoughts I was his sharp, his horn section His boom and his bip And he was my love Love rain down on me, on me, down on me The rain was fallin' and, and slowly and sweetly and stinging my eyes And I could not see that he became my voodoo priest And I was his faithful concubine Wide open, wide, loose like bowels after collard greens The mistake was made Love slipped from my lips Dripped down my chin and landed in his lap And us became new Now me non-clarivoyant and in love Made the coochie easy and the obvious invisible The rain was falling And I couldn't see the season changing And the vibe slipping off it's axis Our beautiful melody became wildly staccato (Repeat 1 in background) The rain was falling and I could not see That I was to be plowed and sowed and fertilized And left to drown in his sunny afternoon Cumulus clouds, 84 degrees, melody Love rain down on me, on me, down on me Love rain down on me, on me, down on me [Mos Def] I stretched my arms towards the sky like blades of tall grass The sun beat between my shoulders like carnival drums I sat still in hopes that it would help my wings grow So then I could really be fly And then she arrived Like day break inside a railway tunnel Like the new moon, like a diamond in the mines Like high noon to a drunkard, sudden She made my heart beat in a now-now time signature Her skinny canvas for ultraviolet brushstrokes She was the sun's painting She was a deep cognac color Her eyes sparkled like lights along the new city Her lips pursed as if her breath was too sweet And full for her mouth to hold I said, "You are the beautiful, distress of mathematics." I said, "For you, I would peel open the clouds like new fruit And give you lightning and thunder as a dowry I would make the sky shed all of it's stars like rain And I would clasp the constellations across your waist And I would make the heavens your cape And they would be pleased to cover you They would be pleased to cover you May I please, cover you, please" |

Lyrics from Jill Scott?s rap in Golden Days, by Kem
What exactly, my dear, are you clinging to? Some propaganda stating you?re going as far as you?re going to? That your skjes are finite and limited? That your growth is an impossible dream, that your future is inhibited. Oh please!! They have been shoveling them lies since the 50s? can?t nobody decide what your life can move through!!! This is YOUR time and YOUR challenge. What is it that YOU want to do? Sit and be still and not shine the way your life was meant to???? Oh, I pray that ain?t true!!!! I pray that ain?t true!!!! Oh please, don?t fall in the abyss because something negative once ruled you. Please! Understand I?m from where you are and I?ve got to fight my demons too. Please! Don?t give up because somebody broke your heart or some things fell through. This is LIFE. You owe it. Life does not owe you. An obstacle is a thing that impedes or blocks one?s way. You can climb over?you can dig under?you can chip through it? you can go around it?you can move it?. you can ignore it! But you CAN do it! YOU CAN DO IT! |

What exactly, my dear, are you clinging to? Some propaganda stating you?re going as far as you?re going to? That your skjes are finite and limited? That your growth is an impossible dream, that your future is inhibited. Oh please!! They have been shoveling them lies since the 50s? can?t nobody decide what your life can move through!!! This is YOUR time and YOUR challenge. What is it that YOU want to do? Sit and be still and not shine the way your life was meant to???? Oh, I pray that ain?t true!!!! I pray that ain?t true!!!! Oh please, don?t fall in the abyss because something negative once ruled you. Please! Understand I?m from where you are and I?ve got to fight my demons too. Please! Don?t give up because somebody broke your heart or some things fell through. This is LIFE. You owe it. Life does not owe you. An obstacle is a thing that impedes or blocks one?s way. You can climb over?you can dig under?you can chip through it? you can go around it?you can move it?. you can ignore it! But you CAN do it! YOU CAN DO IT! |

Verse 1
Here you go, jacket down Timbs off Remote control And there you go Off into outerspace Distant from me Where do you go? Your eyes are closed I'd like to know I stop, sit next to you because you seem so blue, And pray nothings broke Baby I don't want to see us burn down And go up in smoke No, no, no, no, no Chorus Talk to me, break it down, spell it out, spell it out for me Talk to me, break it down, spell it out, spell it out for me Verse 2 But when I push Begins the riff You take off and there I sit Alone feeling cold I become antagonist, loud, and wrong Words are thrown I bitch, you moan So I try another tactic Ohh, ohhhh, oh Verse 3 Close your eyes Relax your mind Cool down Just recline We've got the time To let it go Just unwind I'll be cool baby I'll be quiet If you'd like I'll put on your favorite song Sounds nice! Thug passion on ice? Or a glass of Merlot? I'll roll it up If you want I won't front I just need to know What you know Talk to me, break it down, spell it out for me baby Talk to me, break it down, spell it out for me Dee da da Be bim bim Bum bum bum di di bum didi dow... (continues scatting) Ohh Baby I'm getting so frustrated Aggravated And so it seems that you're hiding something from me And that ain't the way my sweet I'm loving you But I get confused And what makes me fear When your personality is unclear I make things up in my mind You're right next to me But sometimes I feel like you're off away And you just don't have a thing to say But I'm for you So tell me what you Tell me what you're goining through Ahh |

When we first met, I was surprised to get...
That feelin... That feelin... the kind that don't wash away with soap. So sweet to me... Mmmmm......The kind of feeling I need... 2 get me thru my darkest days... For you I prayed.... What you do is Crazy baby, Not like you belong in an asylum /Crazy baby Like the sun in the morning and the moon at night, Like the rain falling from the sky. Like the trees growing from the ground, I'm astounded baby.. by your love for me, and you're touchin me, and you're trustin me.. like you do, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-wooo. Even now, I still feel that feeling....... Although, we've grown..... We're still on the same side Of the proverbial road..... Heading in the same direction I'm so glad to know.... With you I spend my time... What you do is Crazy baby, Not like you belong in an asylum /Crazy baby Like the sun in the morning and the moon at night, Like the rain falling from the sky. Like the trees growing from the ground, I'm astounded baby.. by your love for me, and you're touchin me, and you're trustin me.. like you do, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-wooo. (repeat chorus 4 x's).............Crazy baby. |

I gotta admit sometimes I feel week for loving you the way I do
It's beyond me I can't control it or force it to be, you know, what I want it to be I think about you so much when I'm with you and when I'm not It's deep, the way, just looking in your eyes just changes my whole perspective Nothing is more beautiful than loving you, holding you being next to you Kissing youir lips taking my time with you Nothing is more beautiful than loving you Holding you being next to you Moving my hips Moving in time with you Put of all the things in the world, god gave us to each other It's amazing You are the king I always imagined This is the bes time of my life. |

His name was Rasool
Carmel completed boy from the 22 Rough on the outside But on the inside he was cool Rasool was a king But also a fool Back on the block again with the same crew Tariq from the west side Little John form the avenue Always seen um bout a quarter to two Shaking hands with everybody But at the same time sharing the blues And oh how he passed it on Shaking hands till what was in his pockets was gone He'd be outside in the cold with his bubble goose on But inside I knew he wasn't warm Around 10:30 on that dreary night His bowaz said they were hungry they were hungry Wanted to get a bite But they didn't send a runner Rasool knew it wasn't right But he stayed anyway to get the chain he liked And oh how the shots rang in the streets Hitting everybody in the surrounding vicinity Children of the children One young father to be And Rasool lay dead in my north Philly Street At fifteen years old It was the first death I'd seen But the game ain't designed for no kind of winning And oh this is a friend of Rasool Telling you to think about what you do and who you call your crew The very choices you make May make a Rasool out of you Now you don't want that do you? |

You're gonna hear the pages turn
Let me take my Gazelle's off Don't want this thing but can't let go Even though I need it so Your arms they soothe me But I ain't no game I ain't no toy I ain't just brain This ain't no movie mane I'm a real woman Been down this road before I just need more Why does my body ignore what my mind says I try to keep it intact but I'm here in this bed I need to listen listen Why does my body ignore what my mind says I try to keep it intact but I'm here in this bed I need to listen Emotions deep down inside of me I'm trying to hide but they keep finding me I want to lay low but continuously you do Unh unh unh All the right things So sweet to me What do I do Why does my body ignore what my mind says I try to keep it intact but I'm here in this bed I need to damn Why does my body ignore what my mind says I try to keep it intact but I'm here in this bed Again I'm scared Again Oh oh oh You got that ocean of soul Baby you super thick And I'm the man of steel with skills Call me Super Dick I got that technique that keeps you cummin back to back And I know you feel it all in your stomach whenever you arch your back I'm a pull yo hair I know you love that When I maneuver this tongue your eyes roll back I work them side angles I'm a Kama Sutra pro Kitchen table down to the flo Ass in the air while you biting that pillow Girl you know how I chop and screw That's what a diamond chip dick do That's what a diamond chip dick do Oh my mind says and my body says something different Why does my body ignore what my mind says I try to keep it intact but I'm here in this bed He got that thickness the kind that make you get up makin biscuits with Breakfast so gone Why does my body ignore what my mind says I try to keep it intact but I'm here in this bed I'm scared of this love He got that thickness the kind that make you get up makin biscuits with Breakfast so gone And I ain't even thinkin bout the next chick that he mess with so Reckless so gone |

[Verse 1]
Here I am again asking questions, Waiting to be moved. I am so unsure of my perception, What I thought I knew I don't seem to Where is the turn so I can get back to what I believe in? Back to the old me and [Chorus] God, please hear my call. I am afraid for me. Love has burned me raw I need your healing I need Your healing. [Verse 2] I've been such a fool How did I get here? Played by all the rules Then they changed I am but a child to your vision Standing in the cold and the rain Lost here in the dark I can't see. Gotta take a stand, what is happening? Oh, this hurts so bad. I can hardly breathe. I just want to leave so [Chorus x2] God, please hear my call. I am afraid for me. Love has burned me raw I need your healing I need Your healing.

About another time
some other time How 'bout you call next week We'll get something to eat We'll just hang and chill Just to keep the thrill About another time some other time Oh my God I really had a good time tonight It was fun I had stars in my eyes Oh my God he was witty and sweet Relaxed and comfortable Conversation was nice and easy Steady moving smart There was a kind of dignitary vibe Like an original hip hop melody break dance soul train He was kinda Don Cornelius to me But it's only been two weeks About another time some other time He can be a snake in the grass Deceptively hiding waiting to spill his venom on my ass He could be cold blooded With another woman behind another door Another couple of kids three or four He could be lying about his money Ain't got nothing to show He could be be a lotta things a lotta things He could be a lotta things I just wanna see |

Too much on my mind
Too much on my mind Too much on my mind Too much on my La la la la la la la la la Here I am thinking again All lost in my brain But I know I should get up and get out of it I gotta keep moving But here I am lost all up inside my brain Can't stop thinking reminiscing Can't stop Can't let go But when I wake up And one day I will do it I have let you go Need everything I went through was beautiful I have let you go And everything I went through was beautiful Maybe I right now can't see the forest full of trees So lost behind hurt But I'm trying everyday exponentially To move forward you know how it feels to be lost But when I wake up Everything I went through would be beautiful When I wake up And I will wake up It's gonna be beautiful Down to my left side Feeling I could fly All day up high Sweeter than the sugar on a cinnamon treat Or an ice cream That was me But I'm feeling like I'm in a nightmare Fear of loving somebody everywhere Oh Lord I need this confirmation this affirmation That when I wake up Then I wake up Everything I went through will be beautiful When I wake up Everything I went through will be beautiful Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up Gotta wake up |
