I look at you all
See the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor
And I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and so-old you

I look at the world
And I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
(With) every mistake
We must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps
Yeah

I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No-one alerted you

I look at you all
See the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
Look at you all
Still my guitar gently weeps

Life is a journey,
Not a destination,
There are no mistakes,
Just chances we've taken
Lay down your regrets cause all we have is now

Wake up in the morning
And get out of bed
Start making a mental list in my head
Of all of the things that I am grateful for

Early in the morning
It's the dawn of a new day
New hopes new dreams new ways
I open up my eyes and
I open up my mind and
I wonder how life will surprise me today
Early in the morning
It's the dawn of a new day
New hopes new dreams new ways
I open up my heart and
I'm gon' do my part and
Make this a positively beautiful day

La la la la la la la la la [x3]
It's a Beautiful Day [x3]

Life is a challenge not a competition
You can still smell the roses and be on a mission
Just take a moment to get in touch with your heart
Sometimes you feel like you've got something to prove
Remind yourself that there's only one you
Just take a moment to give thanks of who you are
Early in the morning
It's the dawn of a new day
New hopes, new dreams, new ways
I open up my eyes and
I open up my mind and
I wonder how life will surprise me today

Early in the morning
It's the dawn of a new day
New hopes, new dreams, new ways
I open up my heart and
I'm gon' do my part and
Make this a positively beautiful day

La la la la la la la la la [x3]
It's a Beautiful Day [x2]

Let's make this a wonderful
Let's make this a powerful
Let's make this a Beautiful Day

Life is a journey,
Not a destination,
There are no mistakes,
Just chances we've taken
Lay down your regrets cause all we have is now

Yeah, Yeah
Ohhhhh
Let my people go
Ohhhhh
Let my people go

In the swamps of New Orleans
The rain came pouring down
... of the water
That the walls came crashing down
Now I know a survivor
But how the hell you justify
Leavin' a hundred thousand people in water that high
Just struggling for their lives

I know there's got to be a better way
I know there's got to be a better way
I know there's got to be a better way
And we gotta find it
Gotta find it
Gotta find it
mmmmm

Politicians are screaming
They say we gotta raise up a war
So many people are dyin'
And we ain't even sure what for
Is it because he's a muslim
Tell me is it democracy or is it the oath
It's in the news every day one paycheck away
And the president's on the golf course

I know there's got to be a better way
I know there's got to be a better way
I know there's got to be a better way
And we gotta find it (We gotta stand together)
Gotta find it (Or we gon' fall apart)
Gotta find it (We gotta find it)
mmmmm

Sweet butter crawdad
Delta bread hot pepper
Sold ____ sold out
Lifestyle was taken before they found out what life was all about

He's a genius with the lyrics
Started young sippin' syrup
And it hurts me to my soul
The way he drinks away the pain
The world's gonna lose him
Another unsung hero

We gotta find it
We gotta find it
We gotta find it (We gotta find it)
We gotta find it (We gotta find it)
We gotta find it (Hey)
We gotta find it

See the children on TV
It's become a sign of the times
Glorifying their bodies
Something just don't feel right

Still we keep pretending
That boys and girls are men and women
We watch it and we call it entertainment
And everything's okay, long as somebody's gettin' paid

I know there's got to be a better way
I know there's got to be a better way
I know there's got to be a better way
And we gotta find it
Gotta find it
Gotta find it
mmmmm

If we make each other happy
then we just can't lose
I don't mean to be decadent
I might sound like a hedonist
But the simplest way
I can put it
You become a habit
The more I consume
the more I gotta have it
Ain't no such thing as too much
If you gave me everything
it'd never be enough yeah
My black coffee
with sugar no cream
in the morning
You're my super
double caffeine dream yeah
Your precious darkness
got me so strung out
and lovin' the way
that you got me so wide open
my babydoll
Jonesin' and fienin'
under my skin
My nerves are screamin'
when you're not here
See baby I need ya
Sugar you're so delicious

There's a girl who was raised to believe that love is suffering
She grows up and the man like a father gives her a wedding ring
Now she walks around up constant companion, our resentment, fear and sadness
The lack of laughter turns to cancer, this song is dedicated to her

The worst disease in the world
It's not cancer, it's not aids
The cure will not be found
By any physicist or scientist
Cause any cure living every single one of us
The worst disease in the world is hate
And the cure for hate is love
Oh love, oh love, oh love

Picture this:
There's a boy who was abused when he was 12 years old
Now guilt lives in the pit of his stomach and even though he's grown
He believes he deserves to be punished, now he lives his life past and reckless
Searching for love, helpless, this song is dedicated to him

The worst disease in the world
It's not cancer, it's not aids
The cure will not be found
By any physicist or scientist
Cause any cure living every single one of us
The worst disease in the world is hate
And the cure for hate is love
Oh love, oh love, oh love

It may seem
When I'm looking at the world through those kind of glasses
I believe that it's so simple but sometimes it looks complicated
God's love is like sunshine not be recognized
The most powerful energy in the universe
And all we have to do is use it

You may think
That there's nothing in the world that you can do but that ain't the truth
The fact of the matter is the battle world begins with you
Be the best person you can be
Pass those values to your family
And when you pray for those you love
Say a prayer for humanity

There are places in Havannah,
That remind me of Savannah.
Parts of West Virgina,
That might as well be Kenya.
Parts of New York City,
Parts of Mississippi.
Parts of Tennessee,
Look like another world to me.

[Chorus:]
Oh, oh oh, Ghetto-o-o-o,
Might as well be another country.
Barrio-o-o-o,
Might as well be another country.
When you look around,
You live in another country too (too).

To be hungry in L.A.
Is just like starving in Bombay.
Homeless in Moracco,
Is a shelter in Chicago.
Right around the corner,
Just down the road.
Right before your eyes,
Right under your nose.

[Chorus:]
Hey, the ghetto-o-o-o
Might as well be another country.
Barrio-o-o-o,
Might as well be another country.
When you look around,
You live in another country too (too).

Now the dictionary says,
That the ghetto is a place
Of minority, and poverty, and over population.
We live on this earth together,
Ain't no separation.
When you're looking down,
From outer space.
We're just a human race and the world is a

[Chorus:]
Ghetto-o-o-o,
Listen every place and every country.
Barrio-o-o-o,
It's in every place and every country.
When you look around,
Do you see your brother when you
Look around?
It's a small world after all.
Look around,
You live in another country too.

(Ghetto) Jamaica is a ghetto

He heals me
Told him my biggest secret
And he told me four.
He smiled at me and said
that makes me love more
And then he made me laugh
And I knew it was a sign
That he was a man,
That I wanted in my life

And with every passing day
I feel more and more of that way

He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me,
He heals me

I can play him songs, all
through the night,
And he will listen to every line,
And even when I'm wrong, he is still kind
[ Find more Lyrics on www.mp3lyrics.org/ERac ]
He chooses his words wisely
when he tells me I'm not right.

And yes he is a beautiful man,
But he is also a beautiful friend

He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me

The moment that we met, he made me smile.
He has so much compassion in his eyes
I have no idea, how long he'll be here
A season or a lifetime, forever or a year
But for the first time in my
life I'm not worried about
the future
Because we have such a
wonderful time when we're together
However things turn out, it's all right
Cause he's already changed my life.

He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me, he never hurts me
He heals me..........

I am grateful that you never cease to amaze me the way you love me
From the flicker of an eyelash to the furthest star
From the pyramids to the beat of my heart
From a woman in Somalia to a child in Harlem
We're created from the same things
I'm grateful that you created me from the same grains from the same things
I'm grateful that you never cease to amaze me the way you loved me

I am grateful that you never cease to amaze me the way you love me
From the flicker of an eyelash to the furthest star
From the pyramids to the beat of my heart
From a woman in Somalia to a child in Harlem
We're created from the same things
I'm grateful that you created me from the same grains from the same things
I'm grateful that you never cease to amaze me the way you loved me

I'm grateful that you created me from the same grains from the same things
I'm grateful that you never cease to amaze me the way you love me

Mmhmmmm......

I say I love you
You say that's Kind
You don't wanna get too close
You loved me crazy
I lost my mind

(Listen.....)

You're everything I never wanted
And all the things I didn't need
This ain't who I wanna be
You don't have to stay forever
I'll take passion over pride
Full moon, high tide
Let's make it a long goodbye
Tomorrow we'll pick up the pieces
Try to mend our broken lives
Soft kiss, sweet lies
(Let's make it a long goodbye)

Yeah....
I cried in silence
I lived through you
I've given everything away
And maybe I can learn to fall
For someone who can give me all
The things I'm not afraid to lose

You don't have to stay forever
I'll take passion over pride
Full moon, high tide
Let's make it a long goodbye
Tomorrow we'll pick up the pieces
Try to mend our broken lives
Soft kiss, sweet lies
Let's make it a long goodbye

Whenever you see lonely faces
That's where I'll be
Don't cry for me, no no no
Don't cry for me, Don't cry for me yeah yeahhhh

Hey, don't cry for me, no no no
I'm gonna be okay

(반복)
You don't have to stay forever
I'll take passion over pride
Full moon, high tide
Let's make it a long goodbye
Tomorrow we'll pick up the pieces
Try to mend our broken lives
Soft kiss, sweet lies
Let's make it a long goodbye

I'm grateful that now I can see
That I am a part of everything
And everything is a part of me
You've amazed me

There is a woman in Somalia
Scraping for pearls by the roadside
There is a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive

That is how she lives her life
She is dying to survive
I don't know what she's made of
But I would like to be that brain

She cries to the heavens above
There's a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Yes, it hurts like brand new shoes
And it hurts like brand new shoes

There is a woman in Rwanda
The sun shows her no mercy
The same sky we lay under
It burns her to the bone

Long is afternoon shadows
It's gonna take her to get home
Each gray carefully wrapped up
Pearls for her little girl

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

She cries to the heavens above
There's a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Yes, it hurts like brand new shoes
And it hurts like brand new shoes

There was a womanin Somalia
There was a woman in Rwanda
There was a woman in Tibet
There is a woman in a Congo
And she hurts like brand new shoes

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Ohhh
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[African words sung]
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I've Seen: Money come between my best friend and me
I've Seen: Old friend become new enemies
I've Been: Through a couple of litigations
I've Been: Through character assassination.

They Try To Put This Stick In Between My Wheels
But They Can't Stop My Motivation (Nothing Will...)

Though I walk through the Valley where the shadow of death is... I fear no evil cause I'm protected.

No weapon formed against me shall prosper
Cause I'm walking with the heavenly father
And I do believe I'm going to prosper
Cause I'm walking with the prayers of my mother.

You won't get the best of me even though you broke my heart... I'm gone pick up the pieces. [x2]

I Was Thinking: Maybe this isn't the life for me.
I Was Thinking: Maybe I should leave the music industry
I've Been: Betrayed by the people I trusted
I've Been: Oh... seriously disgusted.

They Try To Put This Stick In Between My Wheels
But They Can't Stop My Motivation (Nothing Will...)

Though I walk through the Valley where the shadow of death is... I fear no evil cause I'm protected.

No weapon formed against me shall prosper,
Cause I'm walking with the heavenly father~
And I do believe I'm going to prosper
Cause I'm walking with the prayers of my mother.

You won't get the best of me even though you got my money... I'm gone pick up the pieces. [x2]

[MC Lyte Mix:]
You Can't Get The Best Of Me... Cause Of My Destiny
Not To Be Less Than Me... But To Be More.
So, Don't Question Me...
I Came And I Conquered, I Soared
To New Heights And Still I Explored
In My Fight To Survive,
Lyte Is Too Right...
Keep My Eyes On New Sights
I Continue To Plight
So, When Try To Hurting Me
Even Deserting Me...
Know That I Am Designed To Overcome Adversity~
Want To Bring Out The Worst In Me... It won't happen!
Because I Take Responsibility For My Actions.
My Tenacity... Well It Has To Be Everlasting...
Cause Even When Comes To Backstabbers... I'm laughing!

You won't get the best of me even though broke my heart... I'm gone pick up the pieces.
You won't get the best of me even though you got my money... I'm gone pick up the pieces. [x2]

You won't get the best of me because by the grace of GOD... I'm gone pick up the pieces. [x4]

There was always A power I could feel It was guidance to tell me the way to go But nowadays I feel like can't hear that voice I've been flying blind I need you to come and be my eyes. (be my eyes) River Rise Carry me back home (I cannot remember the way) River rise Carry me back home (I surrender today) I was always A charmed flower child I would sit for hours And listen to the sky But nowadays I feel like I don't have that choice I've been looking down in desperation I need you to be my inspiration yeah (My inspiration) River rise Carry me back home (I cannot remember the way) River rise Carry me back home (I surrender today) I bow down And I humble myself I can't do this Lord I need your help All the material things They feel like chains If you're not here beside me you're the reason I see (Help me to remember the way) I surrender Help me to remember Only you can show me (Only you can show me the way) I surrender (I surrender today) You are the only way Lord, I need you.

I got the call today, I didn`t wanna hear
But I knew that it would come
An old true friend of ours was talkin` on the phone
She said you found someone

And I thought of all the bad luck,
And all the struggles we went through
How I lost me and you lost you
What are these voices outside love`s open door
Make us throw off our contentment
And beg for something more?

I`ve been learning to live without you now
But I miss you sometimes
The more I know, the less I understand
All the things I thought I knew, I`m learning them again

I`ve been tryin` to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it`s about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don`t love me anymore

These times are so uncertain
There`s a yearning undefined
And people filled with rage
We all need a little tenderness
How can love survive in such a graceless age

And the trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness
They`re the very things we kill, I guess
Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms
And the work they put between us,
You know it doesn`t keep us warm

I`ve been trying to live without you now
But I miss you, baby
The more I know, the less I understand
And all the things I thought I figured out,
I have to learn again

I`ve been tryin` to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But my will gets weak
And my heart is so shattered
But I think it`s about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don`t love me anymore

All the people in your life who`ve come and gone
They let you down, you know they hurt your pride
Better put it all behind you； cause life goes on
You keep carrin` that anger, it`ll eat you up inside

I wanna be happily everafter
And my heart is so shattered
But I know it`s about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don`t love me anymore

I`ve been tryin` to get down to the Heart of the Matter
Because the flesh will get weak
And the ashes will scatter
So I`m thinkin` about forgiveness
Forgiveness

Even if you don`t love me anymore
Even if you don`t love me anymore

Time... I've been passing time watching trains go by All of my life...Lying on the sand, watching seabirds fly
Wishing there would be Someone waiting home for me...
Something's telling me it might be you It's telling me it might be you...
All of my life...
Looking back as lovers go walking past...All of my life Wondering how they met and what makes it last
If I found the place Would I recognize the face?
Something's telling me it might be you Yeah, it's telling me it might be you
So many quiet walks to take
So many dreams to wake And we've so much love to make
I think we're gonna need some time Maybe all we need is time...And it's telling me it might be you
All of my life...
I've been saving love songs and lullabies And there's so much more No one's ever heard before...
Something's telling me it might be you Yeah, it's telling me it must be you And I'm feeling it'll just be you All of my life...
It's you..It's you...
I've been waiting for all of my life...
Maybe it's you... Maybe it's you...
I've been waiting for all of my life...
Maybe it's you... Maybe it's you...
I've been waiting for all of my life...
Repeat to fade...
A Whole New World Lyrics
I can show you the world Shining, shimmering, splendid Tell me, princess now when did you last let your heart decide?
I can open your eyes Take you wonder by wonder Over, sideways and under On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world A new fantastic point of view No one to tell us no Or where to go Or say we're only dreaming
A whole new world A dazzling place I never knew But when I'm up here It's crystal clear That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Now I'm in a whole new world with you Unbelievable sights Indescribable feeling Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling Through an endless diamond sky A whole new world

I am ready for love
Why are you hiding from me
I"d quickly give my freedom
To be held in your captivity

I am ready for love
All of the joy and the pain
And all the time that it takes
Just to stay in your good grace
Lately I"ve been thinking
Maybe you"re not ready for me
Maybe you think I need to learn maturity
They say watch what you ask for
Cause you might receive
But if you ask me tomorrow
I"ll say the same thing

I am ready for love
Would you please lend me your ear?
I promise I won"t complain
I just need you to acknowledge I am here

If you give me half a chance
I"ll prove this to you
I will be patience, kind, faithful and true
To a man who loves music
A man who loves art
Respect"s the spirit world
And thinks with his heart

I am ready for love
If you"ll take me in your hands
I will learn what you teach
And do the best that I can

I am ready for love
Here with a offering of
My voice
My Eyes
My soul
My mind

Tell me what is enough
To prove I am ready for love

I am ready

Better People Yeah Yeah! Yeah Yeah! [Verse 1:] I wish there was a video game to teach you your ancestors name I wish there was a phone number like 1-800-Save-Your-Brother I'm thankful for the radio station Not afraid to put the truth in rotation there are skirts of information That you can only get in conversation with... [Chorus:] Young People, who talk to Old People, it would make us Better People, all around... (Yes it would) And if Old People would talk to Young People, it would make us Better People, all around.... (Yes it would) [Verse 2:] We went from radio to TV Now we're going from LP to CD Don't be afraid To try something new I can help you with the brand new technology Help me with the age old philosophy Together there's so much we can do with: [Chorus:] They say that every Generation gets worse Whether if your generous or no purse These problems tend to strive off the sky (yeah) Listen to Mahatma Ghandi's words Be the change you want to see in the world Start with yourself and healing will multiply AAAAAAH, that's what happens When.. [Chorus:] If black people Would talk to white people It would make us Better People All Around.... If Republican people would Talk to Democratic people It would make us diplomatic people [laugh] All Around.....

Do do do
Do do do
Do do do do do do dooooooo (4x)

Good morning silence
Good morning to myself

Good morning to the pain in the center of my chest

It's crazy how much I miss
a simple good morning kiss
oh ohhhhh...

Good morning independence or is it loneliness?
I know I said I wanted this but I have regrets

I pray for God's will to be done
The very next day you were gone
Oh Ohhhhhh

Good morning to the harsh realities of life
and good morning to the fact we're not husband and wife

We made a promise to stay
But destiny got in the way
oh ohhhhhhhh

Good morning...

Good morning acceptance
Good morning inner strength
I'm loving every moment
even the strain

It's crazy how much I miss
a simple good morning kiss
It's crazy how much I've missed
Now it's time for me to live
oh ohhhhhhhhhh

Good morning...

Good morning optimism
Good morning to my faith
Good morning to the beginning of a brand new day

I know that God's will be done
So I lay down my pain and I'm moving on

I know that God's will be done.
So it's a good morning after all

Do do do
Do do do
Do do do do do do dooooooo

Good morning silence
Good morning to myself

Good morning to the pain in the center of my chest

It's crazy how much I miss
a simple good morning kiss
oh ohhhhh~

Good morning independence or is it loneliness?
I know I said I wanted this but I have regrets

I pray for God's will to be done
The very next day you were gone
Oh Ohhhhhh

Good morning to the harsh realities of life
and good morning to the fact
we're not husband and wife

We made a promise to stay
But destiny got in the way
oh ohhhhhhhh

Good morning

Good morning acceptance
Good morning inner strength
I'm loving every moment

It's crazy how much I miss

It's crazy how much I've missed
Now it's time for me to live
oh ohhhhhhhhhh

Good morning

Good morning optimism
Good morning to my faith
Good morning to the beginning of a brand new day

I know that God's will be done
So I lay down my pain and I'm moving on

I know that God's will be done.
So it's a good morning after all

India Arie - Get It Together

One shot to your heart without breaking your skin.
No one has the power to hurt you life your kin.
Kept it inside didn't tell no one else,
didn't even want to admit to yourself.

And now your chest burns and your backaches,
from fifteen years of holding the pain.
And now you'll only have yourself to blame if you continue to live this way.

Chorus: Get it together, you have to heal your body.
Get it together you have to heal your heart.
Whatsoever you so sow you will reap, Get it together.

Dark future ahead of me that's what they said.
I'd be starving if I ate al the lies they fed.
Cause' I've been redeemed from your anguish and pain,
a miracle child, I'm floating on a cloud.
Cause' the wards that come from your mouth, you're the first to hear...
Speak words of beauty ad you will be there.
Na matter what anybody says what matters most is what you think of yourself.

Chorus:Get it together, you have to heal your body.
Get it together you have to heal your heart.
Whatsoever you so sow you will reap, Get it together.

The choice is yours, don't matter what it is.
To choice life... is to choice to forgive.
You don't have to try and hurt him, or break his pride...
Just shake that weight off and you'll be ready to fly.

One shot to your heart without breaking your skin,
no one has the power to hurt you like your friends.
Thought it would never change,
but as time moved on,
that ugly duckling grew up to be a swan.
And now your chest hurts and your back aches because
now the years are showing up on your face.
But you'll never be happy and you'll never be whole
until you see the beauty in growing old.

Chorus:Get it together, you have to heal your body.
Get it together you have to heal your heart.
Whatsoever you so sow you will reap, Get it together.

You can fly, fly, fly, fly
You can live or you can die
You know that life is a choice you make
You can give or you can take

"I Choose" Because you never know where life is gonna take you and you can't change where you've been. But today, I have the opportunity to choose. [Verse 1:] Here am I now looking at 30 and I got so much to say. I gotta get this off of my chest, I gotta let it go today. I was always too concerned about what everybody would think. But I can't live for everybody, I gotta live my life for me.(Yeah) I pitched a fork in the road of my life and ain't nothing gonna happen unless I decide. [Chorus:] (And I choose) to be the best that I can be. (I choose) to be authentic in everything I do. My past don't dictate who I am. I choose. (Yeah) [Verse 2:] I done been through some painful things I thought that I would never make it through. Filled up with shame from the top of my head to the soles of my shoes. I put myself in so many chaotic circumstances, but by the grace of God I've been given so many second chances. But today I decided to let it all go. I'm dropping these bags, I'm making room for my joy. [Chorus:] (And I choose) to be the best that I can be. (I choose) to be authentic in everything I do. My past don't dictate who I am. I choose. [Bridge:] Because you never know where life is gonna take you and you can't change where you've been. But today, I have the opportunity to choose. (Hey ey) I used to have guilt about why things happen they way they did cuz life is gone do what it do. And everyday, I have the opportunity to choose. [Verse 3:] From this day forward I'm going to be exactly who I am. I don't need to change the way that I live just to get a man. (NO!) I even had a talk with my mama and I told her the day I'm grown, "from this day forward, every decision I make will be my own." And hey! [Chorus:] (And I choose) to be the best that I can be. (I choose) to be courageous in everything I do. My past don't dictate who I am. I choose. (And I choose) to be the best that I can be. (I choose) to be authentic in everything I do. My past don't dictate who I am. I choose. [Bridge:] Because you never know where life is gonna take you and you can't change where you've been. But today, I have the opportunity to choose. (Hey ey) I used to have guilt about why things happen they way they did cuz life is gone do what it do. And everyday, I have the opportunity to choose.

Too much hypocrisy
in this old southern town for me
Way back in 1619 began this tragic story
Thrown into slavery
the crime was the color of skin
Never to see the light of the past again

I wanna go where the mountains are
high enough to echo my song
I wanna go where the rivers run
deep enough to drown my shame
I wanna go where the stars shine
bright enough to show me the way
I wanna go where the wind calls my name
The wind is calling India India India

It's a typical Savannah day
So I take my guitar to the park and I play
Sitting up under the live oak tree
The strangest feeling came over me
Is this the tree where my brother was hung?
Is this the ground where is body was burnt?
God gave to me the gift of song
so I dedicate this one

I wanna go where the mountains are
high enough to echo my song
I wanna go where the rivers run
deep enough to drown my shame
I wanna go where the stars shine
bright enough to show me the way
I wanna go where the wind calls my name
The wind is calling India India India

Superiority, who have you better than me
Wasting precious time on racist mentality
This is only the beginning
because we'll be pushing up
daisies in the ending
Spirit knows no color
either you're a hater or a lover

I wanna go where the mountains are
high enough to echo my song
I wanna go where the rivers run
deep enough to drown my shame
I wanna go where the stars shine
bright enough to show me the way
I wanna go where the wind calls my name
The wind is calling India India India

Goodbye summer
I hate to see you go;
I wasn't ready for
the Autumn wind to blow.

So lonely.

We had a fine time time
holding hands in June.
Warm in the sunshine
watching loving bloom.

Where are you now?

My heart is frozen in this place.
Waiting for another summer's day;
to bring you back my way.

Hello winter watch the swirling snow.
I didn't have a blanket for the cold.

So lonely now.

My heart is frozen in this place.
Waiting for another summer's day
to bring you back my way.

I'd be waiting under the pappa tree.
Anticipating, when you come back me
in the spring.

Hello summer a kiss from my old friend.
Been such a long time
tell me how you've been.

So lonely now yeah.

My heart is frozen in this place.
Waiting for another summers day;
to bring you back my way.

There's hope [Verse 1:] Back when I had a little I thought that I needed a lot A little was over rated, but a lot was a little too complicated You see-Zero didn't satisfy me A million didn't make me happy That's when I learned a lesson That it's all about your perception Hey-are you a papa or a superstar So you act, so you feel, so you are It ain't about the size of your car It's about the size of the faith in your heart [Chorus:] There's hope It doesn't cost a thing to smile You don't have to pay to laugh You better thank God for that [repeat] [Verse 2:] Off in the back country of Brazil A met a young brotha that made me feel That I could accomplish anything. You see just like me he wanted to sing He had no windows and no doors He lived a simple life and was extremely poor On top of all of that he had no eye sight, but that didn't keep him from seein' the light He said, what's it like in the USA, and all I did was complain He said-livin' here is paridise He taught me paridise is in your mind You know that

These eyes never saw you leavin
This heart is in need of some healing
These arms are letting you go
Our life is the greatest story never told

How many more ways can I explain this to you boy
We had had this conversation several times before
I will except nothing less
than your complete respect
If you cannot give me that then
maybe I should step

These eyes never saw you leavin
This heart is in need of some healing
These arms are letting you go
Our life is the greatest story never told

All this cryin all this fightin
simply ain't my style
Though you're one of
the most important people in my life
I love you from the day we met,
I know you love me too
But at this point walking away is
the best thing we can do

These eyes never saw you leavin
This heart is in need of some healing
These arms are letting you go
Our life is the greatest story never told

Are we meant to be man and wife?
The answer I don't know
Of life's many mystery's
what intrigues me the most
Is who our children would have been
I guess we'll never know
Even as I walk away I'll always keep the hope

These eyes never saw you leavin
This heart is in need of some healing
These arms are letting you go
That's life

That's the way the story goes
Truth is every relationship is a lesson
Truth is I saw it coming but it hurts anyway
Truth is I'm not the reason you're so angry
Truth is you're not the reason I'm so passive
Truth is I've got to take back my power
Truth is

The reason why it hurts so bad
to walk away from you

These eyes I never saw you leavin
This heart my heart is in need of some healing
These arms, These arms are letting you go
That's life is the greatest story never told

Our love is the greatest story never told
Our life is the greatest story never told

And that's the way the story goes...

I`ve achieved so much in life,

삶 속에서 많은 것을 이뤄왔다고 생각하지만
but I`m an amateur in love

아직도 사랑에 있어서는 아마추어일 뿐이죠.
My bank account is doing just fine

은행잔고는 그럭저럭 괜찮지만,
but my emotions are bankrupt

내 감정은 파산 한것처럼 메말랐어요.







My body is nice and strong

내 몸은 강하고 멋지지만,
but my heart is in a million pieces

내 마음은 산산조각이 났네요.
When the sun is shining so am I

해가 떠오를때면 나도 함께 떠오르지만
but when night falls, so do my tears

밤이 내리면 내 눈물도 같이 떨어지네요.






Sometimes the beat is so loud in my heart

때로는 고통의 소리가 너무 커서
that I can barely tell the voices apart

내 목소리 조차 들리지가 않아요.
Sometimes the fear is so loud in my head

때로는 두려움의 소리가 내 머릿속을 울려서
that I can barely hear what God says

그 분(신)의 목소리 조차 들리지가 않았어요.





but then I hear a whisper that this too shall pass

하지만 그때 어떤 속삭임을 들었지요. 이것 또한 지나갈거라고...
I hear the angels whisper that this too shall pass

이것 또한 지나갈거라는 천사의 속삭임을 들었어요.
my ancestors whisper that this day will one day be the past

오늘도 언젠가는 과거가 될 뿐이라 말해주었죠.

so I walk in faith that this too shall pass

그래서 이것 또한 지나가리라 믿고 나아갑니다.






The one that loved me the most

나를 가장 사랑했던 사람이
turned around and hurt me the worst

나에게 가장 큰 상처를 주고 떠나갔지요.
Been doing my best to move on

앞으로 나아가려 최선을 다했지만
but the pain just keeps singing me songs

고통은 계속해서 노래하네요.






My head and my heart are at war

내 머리도, 마음도 전쟁중이에요.
cause love ain`t happening the way I want it

사랑은 언제나 내가 원하는대로 움직이지 않으니까요.
Feel like I`m about to break down

터널의 끝에서 빛이 느껴지지 않아
can`t hear the light at the end of the tunnel

완전히 무너져버렸다고 생각했어요.
is when I pray for healing in my heart

찢어져버린 내 아픈 마음을 어루만져 주시고
to be put back together what is torn apart

다시 되돌려달라고 기도했어요.
and I pray for quiet in my head

그 분의 분명한 음성을 듣게 해달라며
that I can hear clearly what GOD says

조용히 마음속으로 기대했지요.
but then I hear a whisper that this too shall pass

그때 어떤 속삭임을 들었지요. 이것 또한 지나갈거라고...

I hear the angels whisper that this too shall pass

이것 또한 지나갈거라는 천사의 속삭임을 들었어요.
my ancestors whisper that this day will one day be the past

오늘도 언젠가는 과거가 될 뿐이라 말해주었죠.
so I walk in faith that this too shall pass

그래서 이것 또한 지나가리라 믿고 나아갑니다.







All of a sudden I realized

문득 난 깨달았어요.
that it only hurts worst to fight it

맞서려고 하면 상처만 더해진다는 걸요.
So I embrace my shadow and hold on to the morning light

그래서 나는 내 어두움까지 껴안아주기로 했어요.

그리고 아침해가 뜰때까지 기다리기로 했어요.







this too shall pass...

이것 또한 지나가겠지요...







I hear the angels whisper that trouble don`t have to last always

문제가 언제까지나 계속될 필요는 없다는 천사들의 속삭임이 들려요.
I hear the angels whisper even the day after tomorrow will one day be as today

내일 모레도 언젠가는 지난 날이 되어버릴거라는 속삭임이 들려요.
I hear my angels whisper

내 천사들의 소리가 들리네요.
I hear my angels whisper

내 천사들의 소리가 들리네요.
this too shall pass

이것 또한 지나갈거라며...

Wings of Forgiveness I just want you to know After everything that we've been through I just want you to know That I still love you Had to go Across the water Just to find What was here in my heart all along Spend so much time Trying to be right That I was dead wrong If Nelson Mandela can forgive his oppressors Surely I can forgive you for your passion Chorus1 : You're only human Let's shake free this gravity of resentment And fly high, and fly high You're only human Let's shake free this gravity of judgment And fly high on the wings of forgiveness Had to run To the arms of curiosity Just to find What was here in my life all along I had found that the art of simplicity Simply means making peace of your complexity If Gandhi can forgive persecution Surely you can forgive me for being so petty Chorus1 I've searched for romance Flowers and affection What I found is a lesson Of what love really is Found the game of love is Not about how much you can take In fact authentic love is about How much you can give Chorus2 : After everything that we've been through I just want you to know That I still love you I want you to know That I forgive you (thank you for teaching how to give) And I wanna let you know how much you changed my life I wanna let you know you taught me how to fly And I wrote this song to tell you this I'm better cuz you taught me how to give I took a swim In the sea of guilt and misery To find myself in an island In the middle of nowhere In my solitude I asked to know the highest truth And what I was told Is to let own self be true If Jesus can forgive crucifixion Surely we can survive and find resolution Let's keep it moving Let's shake free this gravity of resentment And fly high, and fly high Chorus1 Chorus2 I still love you I want you to know I still love you Want you to know I still love you (And I always will love you) And I wanna let you know I forgive you I wanna let you know That I still love you Want you to know I still love you I just want you to know I still love you Want you to know I still love you Want you to know I still love you And I wanna let you know I forgive you I wanna let you know I still love you

To show somebody that you care

And we're flossing in the club
But the freshest thing you can do is
Give someone your love

Your hair and your makeup
And the time that it takes up
It will take the same care of
Ya give someone ya love

It's like your baptizing me with you love…

Easy like Sunday mornin’, like an angel callin’
He’s taking me all in, I’m embracing him with my skin
Like a glimmer of life, like a vision of light
And he's so perfect that I couldn't picture him if I tried

See, some may come, some may go
But I’ll follow you wherever, your the perfect mate for my soul
And I know I lose control whenever I’m around you cause you given me

And that's more than enough (your glance)
Is like jumpin' in the river of (Jordan)
Purify me, baby
And I'm takin'…

It's summertime always, like it's sunny out all day
Whenever you smile, sweeter than momma's homemade
I thought every man was made the same way
But in a world of smoke and ashes boy, your are milk and honey

See some may come, some may go
But fill me up with your love, you're the nourishment to my soul
And I know I lose control whenever I’m around you cause you’ve given me

(Your hand)
And that's more than enough (your glance)
Is like jumpin' in the river of (Jordan)
Purify me, baby
And I'm takin'…

Can I Walk With You
India.Arie

I woke up this morning you were the first thing on my mind
I don't know where it came from all I know is I need you in my life
You make me feel like I can be a better woman
If you just say you wanna take this friendship to another place

Chorus
Can I walk with you in through your life
Can I lay with you as your wife
Can I be your friend till the end
Can I walk with you through your life

You've got me wondering if you know that I am wondering about you
The feeling is so strong that I can't imagine you're not feeling it too
You've known me long enough to trust that I want what's best for you
If you wanna be happy then I am the one that you should give your heart to

Chorus

Now everyday ain't gonna be, like the summer's day
Being in love for real it ain't like a movie screen
But I can tell you all the drama aside you and I can find what the worlds been
looking for forever friendship and love together

Chorus

Can I walk with you through your life till the day that the world stops turning
Can I walk with you till the day that my heart stops beating
Can I walk with you through your life
Can I walk with you till the end that the birds no longer take flight till the
moon is underwater
Can I walk with you
Can I walk with you

This is the moment I've been waiting for
Can I walk with you
Can I walk with you
Can I walk with you

You are everything I've been looking for
Can I walk with you
Creative intellectual
Can I walk with you
Can I walk with you as your wife

I am ready for love
Why are you hiding from me
I"d quickly give my freedom
To be held in your captivity

I am ready for love
All of the joy and the pain
And all the time that it takes
Just to stay in your good grace
Lately I"ve been thinking
Maybe you"re not ready for me
Maybe you think I need to learn maturity
They say watch what you ask for
Cause you might receive
But if you ask me tomorrow
I"ll say the same thing

I am ready for love
Would you please lend me your ear?
I promise I won"t complain
I just need you to acknowledge I am here

If you give me half a chance
I"ll prove this to you
I will be patience, kind, faithful and true
To a man who loves music
A man who loves art
Respect"s the spirit world
And thinks with his heart

I am ready for love
If you"ll take me in your hands
I will learn what you teach
And do the best that I can

I am ready for love
Here with a offering of
My voice
My Eyes
My soul
My mind

Tell me what is enough
To prove I am ready for love

I am ready

Slow down

So far from where I started out
So far from where I wanna be
Listening for answers in the wind
But can't find a rock to plant my feet
Looking for love in all the wrong places
Down on my knees and now I'm praying for
patience
I know there's gotta be a better way
In the back of my mind I hear my momma say

Slow down, Baby you're going too fast
You got you hands in the air
With you feet on the gas
You're 'bout to wreck your future
Running from your past
You need to slow down before
You go down baby

Thinking the faster that I go
The faster (that) I will reach my goal
The race is not given to the swift
But to the one who endureth
I thought that all my obstacles were behind me
Walking around like I'm made out of diamond
I tripped and fell and it remindedme
Move over and let my angels guideme

Slow down, Baby you're going too fast
You got you hands in the air
With you feet on the gas
You're 'bout to wreck your future
Running from your past
You need to slow down before
You go down baby

Sometimes you gotta be still
Before you can get ahead
Be still
Ask the universe for help
Be real
You can't do it all by yourself
Ah, no no
Sometimes, sometimes you gotta be still
It take some time to reach you and they
Be still
Take some time to clear your space
Be real
Chaos isn't good for your health
Ah, no no, ahhh
Cuz I'm breaking things and losing things
I lost my cell phone again the other day
Now, I don't wanna live this way, no
In the back of my mind I hear my mama say

Slow down, Baby you're going too fast
You got you hands in the air
With you feet on the gas
You're 'bout to wreck your future
Running from your past
You need to slow down before
You go down baby
(Slow down baby)
Slow down (baby)
You're going too fast
Slow down (baby)
Feet on the gas
Slow down (baby)
Run from your past
Slow down baby (4x)

One shot to your heart without breaking your skin
No one has the power to hurt you like your kin
Kept it inside, didn't tell no one else
Didn't even wanna admit it to yourself
And now it just burns in your backaches
From 15 years of holding the pain
And now you only have yourself to blame
If you continue to live this way

[Chorus:]
Get it together
You wanna heal your body
You have to heal your heart
Whatsoever is so you will reap
Get it together

You can fly fly

Talk future ahead of me
That's what they say
I'd be starving if I ate all the lies they fake
Cause I've been redeemed from your anguish and pain
A miracle child I'm floating on the clouds
Cause the words that come from your mouth
You're the first to hear
Speak of words of beauty and you will be there
No matter what he devices
What matters is matters what you think of yourself

[Chorus]
Get it together
You wanna heal your body
You have to heal your heart
Whatsoever is so you will reap
Get it together

The choice is yours
No matter what it is
To choose life is to choose to forgive
You don't have to try
To hurt him and break his pride
To shake that weight off
And you will be ready to fly

One shot to your heart without breaking your skin
No one has the power to hurt you like your friends
Thought it will never change but this time moved on
An ugly duckling grew up to be a swan
And now it just burns in your backaches
Because now beads are showing upon your face
But you're never really happy
And you never behold
Until you see the beauty in growing hope

[Chorus]
Get it together
You wanna heal your body
You have to heal your heart
Whatsoever is so you will reap
Get it together

(featuring India.Arie)

No butterflies no butterfingers
No "ah me" that lingers
On and on when you are gone
No last dance from the lake swan
No string quartet playing in my head
No sweet Juliet
No thunder bolt from up above
Just good old plain old concrete love
Good old plain old concrete love
No jelly legs no trembling weak knees
No belly knots in me
I can eat and I can sleep
No twisted tongue that can't speak
No lunar walk no floating cloud talk
No ten out of ten to report
No thunderbolt from up above

chorus
You snuck up on me
You waited patiently
You snuck up on me

chorus

Won't you come
Won't you come over darling
Won't you come
cause I want some
Bring it on bring it on
Over
Concrete love
