Lord knows i gotta be
true to myself to see god's been too good to me to take things i believe we all kmow that we got better days even when our world is grey trouble dont last always thats why im leaning on my friends sometimes we gotta stop and take everything in make room for my new dreams look back on the old scenes its time for me to step up you gave me a reason to walk into my season I've only just begun so busy worryin bout the little things when someone else is doing worse than me somebody out there got a child in need I never sold you down for you and me And the air we breathe maybe aint even healthy cause in the forest there aint no trees dont tell me that dont make you stop and thing Im so grateful (said im grateful) Im where i wanna be (right where i wanna be) Every Blessing... Every Blessing means more than life to me Cant let it get me Im just to rested to be stressed like some people be... |

So with love, my best regards I'm giving you the time and the space Yes, you need just a little more faith If you're gonna grow, then you need to know When it's time to just let go Cause life is too short to be pretend We're in the beginning when it's the end Oh oh, here we go... a-gain Trying to make it right When it don't make sense, no Now we're both knowing what the problem is Instead of letting go, trying to make it fit Making a fool out of love Ending up in the same predictament If we're gonna grow, then we need to know When it's time to just let go Life is too short to pretend We're in the beginning when it's the end Oh oh, here we go... a-gain Trying to make it right When it don't make sense, no I trusted you with everything Gave you my all to make you stay You took, but never understood my pain Now I gotta leave you Love I'm on my way Oh oh, here we go a-gain Trying to make it right When it don't make sense, no Time to let it go now Wherever we would go from here I'm praying Sweet blessings Nothing but joy, happiness Baby don't regret it It's all good Said we learned so much from each other |

The way I love too much and I give too much and ya take so much til I ain't got nothin' And your energy how it weighs on me steady drainin' me until I'm empty Wantin' better days and all your crazy ways am I lovin' you in vain? Somebody to help me I don't need negativity I just need some clarity (sometimes I wanna love you) ooh ooh ooh Sometimes I wanna hate you sometimes I wanna grab you and pull you close and tell you I love you then push you away oh oh oh boy I wanna love you and sometimes I wanna fight you and God knows that it ain't right to I tell you I'm leavin' and then I say oh oh sometimes Now I give my all every time you fall I'm right there whenever you need me That's when I'm positive you're insensitive and just knowing this I'm uneasy Don't appreciate sacrifice I made money that I threw away not a dime on me but all I see is negativity I think I'm getting clarity Am I asking too much? When I need for you to hold me just to make me feel better Am I asking too much? When I'm asking for the little things you do to bring me laughter Am I asking too much? I can't wait another minute 'cause I'm runnin' on empty When I long for your touch your touch, your touch, your touch, your touch (sometimes I wanna love you ) Sometimes I wanna hate you sometimes I wanna grab you and pull you close and tell you I love you then push you away oh oh oh boy I wanna love you and sometimes I wanna fight you (I wanna fight ya right now ...oh oh oh oh oh... I wanna make ya leave) and God knows that it ain't right to I tell you I'm leavin' and then I say oh oh sometimes Make you leave... Far to believe... I wanna stretch my arms and I fall to my knees that's when the heavens open up and pour a blessing on me.... Sometimes sometimes oh you make me so mad sometimes I wanna love you I wanna love you Sometimes I wanna hate you, sometimes I wanna grab you and pull you close and tell you I love you then push you away, oh oh oh boy I wanna love you, sometimes I wanna fight (fight ya right now) you and God knows that it ain't right to I tell you one minute and then I say oh oh sometimes |

Just like a seed that wouldn't grow.
Not 'til it had the right home. You were like that for me. You nurtured me. You cared for me. You never would let go. Not 'til you could breathe new life into me. Don't you see? What you mean to me -- EVERYTHING. Where would I be without ya? So many times you could have walked. But you stood by me through it all. Got me through hurt. Baby you served through every broken thing to put me back together. Now all is good with me. I'm more happy than most can be. I'm so gone and that's ok with me. Oh boy you make me breathe free. You make the sunshine. You make the rain fall. These are the reasons I love you. Just like the wind blows. Or how the Nile flows. Baby I love you. I love you. High as the moon, boy, you've got me flying. And though the seasons -- they change. You stay the same boy. These are the reasons. Baby I love you. I love you. Got on my knees real low. Wanna let God know, that I'm so thankful for you. Now and forever, I'll adore. Yeah. I'm crying tears of joy. I'm so in love with you boy. Praisin' His name for blessings and favor. Yeaaahh I want you to know that you have changed my whole life. And now I'm trusting like I never did before. Smiling like I never did before. Loving like I never did before. And it's all because of you. You make the sunshine. You make the rain fall. These are the reasons I love you. Just like the wind blows. Or how the Nile flows. Baby I love you. I love you. High as the moon, boy, you've got me flying. And though the seasons -- they change. You stay the same boy. These are the reasons. Baby I love you. I love you. |

Looking back on when I started
Had a lot of sun and a lot of rain I had some joy and broken hearted But now that doesn't mean a thing I'm living for the joy and laughter Longing for my befores and afters All in all it's been cool And there's nothing I wouldn't do I'm so happy being me Ohhh So happy being me I'm regretting noting about me Too busy living life, Living love, Freely So happy being me Stop reaching back from your beginnings All those broken dreams that went down stream As we grow, live and know Some things were never meant to be Just like people they come and go Some will live forever and some will never know That's why god gives us memories To leave us to our victories I'm so happy loving me All those hidden treasures Feeling nothing but pleasure We could never replace, is love (We can't no we can't no) The sunlight leads us to a place and moonlight keeps us in it's grace I'm so happy being me |
