Everybody wants to rise above
Without a touch of dignity Without a stroke of love Take a little time and check yourself To live the life you're praying for Just be true to yourself Everybody wants to be your friend If you got a dime to lend You never really matter in the end to them That's why Chorus: I'm true to myself ya'll I'm true to my family And love with a true integrity I'm true to myself ya'll True to my God above And love with a true integrity Everybody wants a piece of you and me To be the victim of their greed Or co-dependency It's so very hard to know Which way to go A lie can be the gospel truth If eloquently told Everybody wants to make amends If they can see another win You never really matter in the end to them That's why Chorus Some people live their whole life And they'll never see The only way to find true happiness Is to thine own self be True to yourself y'all Got to live your life for you, yeah All you gotta do, well Is be true to yourself, well I'm true to myself, y'all I'm true to my little baby girl I got to be true, oh yeah Chorus out |

I never felt the wind so cold
Until I had to walk alone (without you girl) I never knew what it was to be a man Well let me show you baby 'Cause now I understand I never thought it'd hurt so bad You never know 'til you lose what you had I don't need to waste time runnin' around all over town Now I know where to find true lovin' And I knew the first time that I ever seen you Chorus: Let's stay together girl it would be so nice If we just hold on and stay together Everything will be alright...(we'll be alright) Tell me why it feels so strong (tell me baby, tell me baby) The years roll by, but s'til this heart you own I never felt a love so completely Don't you know we're riding on destiny And I knew the first time that I ever seen you Chorus Ooh girl you got me 'Cause when I wake up You're the first thing on my mind Tomorrow will be So let's leave the past behind Just let me lead you To our happy ever after And girl when we arrive Why don't we stay awhile Chorus out |

This feels so wrong
This feels so wrong This feels so wrong I'm so confused You give me love but you can't be true You say you need your space and time With or without you I'll lose my mind Oh yes I know if meant to be In the future we'll be hand in hand But girl right now you're killing me Cause I know you're making love to another man Do you really want to be just friends Don't you stil love me love me It's so hard for me to understand You say you love me love me You call me for some time to spend Just long as I'm out your door by 10 Platonic love will have to suffice Can't bear the thought of you out of my life I've tried to end this misery But I'm always picking up that phone Swallow my pride I beg and plead But you always sing the same ole song We can be friends Do you really want to be just friends Don't you stil love me love me It's so hard for me to understand You say you love me I love you music down Do you really want to be just friends Don't you stil love me It's so hard for me to understand You say you love me love me Do you really want to be just friends Don't you stil love me love me It's so hard for me to understand You say you love me love me Do you really want to be just friends It's so hard for me to understand You say you love me love me Do you really want to be just friends with me |

Through this veil of tears
I can see what was suppose to be Now it's all so clear Love from you was so real, so true, genuine Stronger than time Chorus: Wipe your tears away Kiss you every morning Hear every word you had to say Are all the things I should have done While you were here And now the foolish boy has grown Into this man I'm sorry you've never known I'm not afraid to love 'Cause every beat of my heart Echoes all those memories from way back when And the man I should have been Chorus Faded dreams of you and me And of our little family Gone forever My God in heaven Before the gift of clarity We pay the price of misery Why please tell me why Her mommy's gone away But in her eyes I see you more each day How can I repay All your love unreturned From so long, long ago Now I know Alternate Chorus I'll wipe her tears away Kiss her every morning Hear every word she has to say Do all the things that you Would do if you were here Brighten her rainy day Catch her when she's fallen Say I love you each and every day Do all the things that you Would do if you were here Chorus |

Tracy is a good girl
Sweet 16 Her daddy's in her bedroom Makes her feel unclean She's slave to a secret That her dad and she keep together Nathan is a genius Or at least he was Nat traded future for a glass-pipe-buzz Nat lives on the streets now For $20 bills he'll do whatever Chorus: Don't stop breaking the chains Don't stop breakin' away Don't be afraid of breaking the chains It's up to no one else You've got to free yourself Rosie is a waitress at the airport lounge She gave up on her dreams Her self esteem's broke down Now she stares out the window Watching people fly around forever Chorus Make a change don't you be afraid, go on Free your mind from the fear inside And you won't be chained anymore Look here I'm a black man And they say I'm free Seems like somebody s'til got chains on me Well we got brothers killing brothers Leaving young mothers to raise a family We gotta stay together to make it better Chorus out |

Why is my heart so
Afraid of letting go And why did I push you away It's so simple to see That we were meant to be But why are three words hard to say It's all in the game It's all in the game of love It's all in the game After all of this time Can't get you off of my mind girl To you every girl I'd compare Every night she's trying To satisfy me But we both know nothing's there It's all in the game (why must I keep playing) It's all in the game of love It's all in the game (I know love is waiting) I think it's time I should let you know I'm going to love you the rest of my life I can't believe I once let you go No one's to blame It's all in the game Solo Chorus out |

Girl it's true
I can't deny I've been around a couple of times So you're afraid This love in me Tomorrow we'll no longer be My heart beats stronger At the end of each day Can you feel the rhythm between the two of us I'd be a fool to turn away Baby all I'm trying to say is Chorus: You're so much more than just a girlfriend You're more than just a temporary love of mine You're so much more than just a girlfriend So I'll ask you forever be mine 'Cause when I'm making love to you I can tell it's not pretend Many things to me are you Not just another lady friend See every brother has a place in his heart Only one lady can find her way to it Only one girl To see your smile is all I need To know that you're my destiny Chorus So I'll stay for always 'til the end of time Much more than loves before Don't wanna let you go Right here is where I'll stay Don't you ever go away Chorus out |

What if I made some time to listen to you
What if you made some time to hear me too What if we took the time to realize Givin' some love is givin' compromise What if I could show you that my love is true Without all these changes we be going through What if we learned to play it by the rules Chorus: What if we was cool...cool Wasn't acting like fools...fools What if we was cool...cool Wouldn't that be cool What if we tried something not tried before What if we let love open up the door What if we set some goals, but not too high What if we both agreed to really try What if we knew that we could disagree But s'til made love the first priority Show me love like you're suppose to do Chorus Do you hear me baby 'Cause our love is fading Can I get the message through to you I'm someone to love What if we had equality for all men What if we forgot all our forefather sins What if you forgot the color of my skin What if you could wear the skin I'm in What if we knew that we could disagree But still make love the first priority Show me love like you're suppose to do Chorus People can yousee 'Cause our love is fading Can I get a message through to you Can we keep this thing cool A lot of love we're needing I'm ready and I'm willing Don't you know that I s'til think of you As someone to love Chorus out |
