What is life?
To live is to believe
To love
Is to receive
Unh, check it out
Check it out now

Young woman confused
Young woman abused
You must understand
It's never too late to lose who you are
And choose who you are supposed to be
Supposed to become
You've been in and out
Up and down, back and forth
Backwards around
Not a friend, not a mother, not a father 
Just God and you should make a choice
What you ought to do
What matters most
Who you are to you
Opinions of the old and young
Shouldn't matter to you
Take advice think it over twice
Make a choice that helps you sleep at night
Night is decent, but recently
Things have shown us
We have done the wrong things often
Never suicide, that's the easy route
There's always another way out
Think about it (think about it)

Life is like
Life is like a park
Seesaws, merry-go-rounds
And though you may swing high
Sometimes you may even fall down
And though you may get stuck
You must get back up
You are bloomin' love

Now see if you went through life with your eyes closed
You never would've known there was a high road
Let people get the best of you and get mad at them
Instead of bein' mad at yourself
You're only number one in your life
And you will decide if it goes right
Every time you digress
Defeat your progress
Feed you lunch, but you must digest
The controversy yo can get personal
They don't understand it's the role reversal
Seekin' fame, play their games
Gave a whole lot for a whole little game
When push comes to shove
Do you push or shove?
When the choice is yours
Do you leave with love?
All the tears you cried, you're dyin' inside
When will you decide to survive
Think about it

Life is like
Life is like a park
Seesaws, merry-go-rounds
And though you may swing high
Sometimes you may even fall down
And though you may get stuck
You must get back up
You are bloomin' love

Life is like
Life is like a park
Seesaws, merry-go-rounds
And though you may swing high
Sometimes you may even fall down
And though you may get stuck
You must get back up
You are bloomin' love

Clap your hands, this evenin', everybody
Clap your hands
Why don't you clap your hands everybody?
Everybody clap your hands
Why don't you clap your hands, oh Left Eye?
Everybody clap your hands
Why don't you clap your hands everybody?
Everybody clap your hands y'all
Clap your hands y'all, ohh clap your hands
If you believe it, clap your hands
Bloomin' love

Life is like
Life is like a park
Seesaws, merry-go-rounds
And though you may swing high
Sometimes you may even fall down
And though you may get stuck
You must get back up
You are bloomin' love

Sometimes you may fall down
But you gotta get back up and try it again
Try it again and try it again
And Try it again
And try it again
And try it again

. . .



5, 9 (10, 11), 12, 18 (what!)

She's the one you thought would never do a solo LP
Yeah, now what chick could outsell me?
Drama comes in dozens and I know you love it
A rose is still a rose, so I rose above it
The more that they see the woman got a mind of her own
The less that they want a part of my throne, it figures
But the more they compare me to the ones they could own
They know they never should have left me alone
I'm bigga
No doubt
Money gang and my G's is up
Treat me like David Blaine and freeze me up
Let me address the issue 
I'm super not superficial
Spoil me
The only statement I'm makin' is royalties (rock the dollars)
Seven digits never under my bank account hold
Numbers like your phone number, plus area code
Gamble with your career 
Go ahead chance her
See what happened with scrubs on my records
Deserve answers

Oh Left Eye 
What's happenin'?
Everybody wanna know where the hell you been
Oh Left Eye
Teachers, children, mothers, and thugs
Everybody loves Miss Left Eye
What's happenin'?
Everybody wanna know where the hell you been
Oh Left Eye
Teachers, children, mothers, and thugs
Everybody loves Miss Left Eye

Whole bunch of names on your credit in pubs
Tryin' to be loved
I'm 30 mill and a fan club
What you got signed for 
I spent on some rugs
DVD's and TV's and that's just in the car
Borderline genius 
Scientists swear by me
Imagine Einstein in Carmen Jones's body
Gave you auditions
They say I'm a gymnast in business
My summersault your positions
Waste not whatnot
I don't want your nothing
On top she's hot
No discussion
I'm a diva
Teacher (to the rap game)
Here when it started I'll be here when it change
Started more careers than Quincy Jones
Other rap chicks actin' funny since she's home
Do it again and again
Expect her to
Left Eye you expect me to respect you too

Oh Left Eye 
What's happenin'?
Everybody wanna know where the hell you been
Oh Left Eye
Teachers, children, mothers, and thugs
Everybody loves Miss Left Eye
What's happenin'?
Everybody wanna know where the hell you been
Oh Left Eye
Teachers, children, mothers, and thugs
Everybody loves Miss Left Eye

Uh, uh, shake, uh, shake it down now
Uh, uh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah one time
Two times, shake it down now

Remember way back in the day (hey hey)
When the kids from around the way
Used to come out and play
And the double dutch bus
Had you bumpin' on down the street
Tryin' to move your feet
While you shake your little booty
To the groove of the beat (uh)
To the beat
To the beat (beat)
You hit the corner and you stopped
Hey y'all there's a party on the other block
We hit the jackpot
Jackpot (what what)

Gettin' busy with the gigolo

Let me live
Let me live
Let me live
Let me live

Ya'll niggas really know me from the stories I tell (tell)
From the lifestyle I lead and the records I sell (sell)
Caught up in situations detrimental to me
And I been through every one for the world to see
That time is always movin' situations do change
And few don't always work out just the way that we plan
Still stand necessary be my friend and my foe
Either love me or you hate me
That's how the game goes
If it's wrong to be respected never ever say die
Remain strong never neglect to spread my wings and fly
Like you I been through struggles so much stress on my brain
Actin' out my life on stages and still had to maintain
Question my every decision
My intentions were good
Twist the story all around and make me misunderstood
Imagine that, no privacy but that's the price of this fame
Under attack, my destiny to be a soldier through rain

I flow I flow
Like water like water
And my desire
Like fire, like fire
I'm kickin' up dirt
From the earth, the earth
Imaginin' I'm the wind 
Redeliverin' from deeper within

I flow I flow
Like water like water
And my desire
Like fire, like fire
I'm kickin' up dirt
From the earth, the earth
Imaginin' I'm the wind 
Redeliverin' from deeper within

Let me live live
Let me live
In in inside
Inside intelligence
Say it say it say it
What you gotta say
Always ask 
And you will be amazed

Let me live live
Let me live
In in inside
Inside intelligence
Say it say it say it
What you gotta say
Always ask 
And you will be amazed

Just to make it in this world and go against all odds
Come from the gritty, in the city, to a superstar
Number one hit consistently for 10 long years
Put my soul in every project my blood, sweat, and my tears
Y'all know my status Left Eye the baddest
Underestimate don't hate it I keep it lavish
But it don't mean nothin' if I can't find peace of mind
Packin' all distractions away leave 'em behind
Say goodbye part-time small crimes and felonies
A new beginnin' I'm winnin' envision' the breeze
I'm dressed in all white linen and fallin' to my knees
Thankful for all that's been given I'm livin' with ease
Tropical trees 90 degrees please
Do like the birds and the bees and start a family
So reminisce on every line that I wrote
Know that I never will surrender and it's truth that I spoke

I flow I flow
Like water like water
And my desire
Like fire, like fire
I'm kickin' up dirt
From the earth, the earth
Imaginin' I'm the wind 
Redeliverin' from deeper within

Let me live live
Let me live
In in inside
Inside intelligence
Say it say it say it
What you gotta say
Always ask 
And you will be amazed

Let me live live
Let me live
Let me love love
Let me love
Let me learn learn
Let me learn
Let me laugh laugh
Let me laugh

Let me see see
Let me see
Let me sing sing
Let me sing
Let me smile smile
Let me smile
Let me ask ask
Let me ask

Let me live
Let me live
Let me live
Let me live

3, 2, 1
What what what, man turn that down...
Gimme five more minutes
Five more minutes...

What times is it? I'm tired man
11:59 already

Wake up in the morning one thing on my mind
Cheerios with vanilla on my milk
It's all mine, I devour, take a shower
Grab the papers and sack
See ya'll later I'm packed
Smoked up till I get cataract
Laid in the Cadillac
Switch lanes out of the driveway
Like I was on the highway (yeah)
I ride a big boy
Y'all ride a similac and oh my Cadillac
Has 50's in the back
Playin' Rick James and Tina, so relaxing
Passed on by the neighbor Red Lane
They called him insane
Here's Mr. Chang limps with a cane
Had a crush on Ms. Payne
Blessed and he's strange
Now he can't walk the same
Innocent three-legged rover
Kinda says four-leafed clover
His owner smooth Jason
Yeah Jane like Playstation
Had the girl's hearts racin'
Like you're nervous and pacin'
Well I swerved the curb
Corner action like verb
Cops throwin' the bird you heard
I'm on I-20 wit' 20's (unh-huh)
And beats I got plenty can't wait to see Jenny

I been all around the world, met a lot of girls
Jenny, yeah that's my dog
I been so many places, seen so many faces
Still ain't none like my dog
I been around the world and back again
Ain't nobody like her yet
Don't forget your homies, can't forget my homies

Well, as sun starts to dim and I'm under the speed limit
And there's hectic traffic too, got off at exit 22
Stopped at Lorraine's she's datin' Mr. Kane
And she's just as deranged and insane in the brain
Man she blew up his Range, shouted things so profane
Unh-huh (sounds like Left Eye)
So we go to Pit's Lane, way over by the main
To get the rest of our girls
With them ghetto ass names
Toleda, Bonnie, Quesha
With them hairdo's
Look like they went through a seizure
You know, went to the movies
And you can't see the feature (ha ha)
And Jenny's father's a preacher
And see her unleashed around daddy so sweet
Without daddy she a freak (she a ho!)
Ain't never seen her with the same nigga for weeks
Naahh wait a minute (yeah)
I seen her three times with Saadiq

I been all around the world, met a lot of girls
Jenny, yeah that's my dog
I been so many places, seen so many faces
Still ain't none like my dog
I been around the world and back again
Ain't nobody like her yet
Don't forget your homies, can't forget my homies

Pull up to Jenny's and she's waitin' outside
My hair ain't done get your ass in the ride
It's Friday night, me I'm high and tight
Jenny sippin' on the Henny, I'm drivin' tonight
My exhaust is about to ignite, we turn on Morland Ave.
And then I see these blue lights (blue lights make me nervous)
I feel fright Jenny yells I ain't goin' to jail tonight girl
So anyway I'm drivin' slow, then enormously fast
Then Jenny dumps her shit and I slammed on the gas
She says I'm fucked up (ha!)
Not to mention all the weed in the ride
And the way we drive and are stupid to ride
I bust a right on Memorial Drive (go left left)
She threw out the Henn and I threw out the stash
And we was goin' so fuckin' and oh so fast
And we stopped, the cops had caught us at last
Knew I forgot somethin' I might have needed some gas
So the cop walked up knocked on the window
I dropped, I ain't drunk, I forgot Jenny's uncle's a cop
Yo relax it's me man, you just forgot your keys
Your keys? Dumbass nigga
I can't believe I threw out my stash
I shoulda whooped your ass
I know I have some crazy Friday nights
But somethin' about Jenny makes it alright

I been all around the world, met a lot of girls
Jenny, yeah that's my dog
I been so many places, seen so many faces
Still ain't none like my dog
I been around the world and back again
Ain't nobody like her yet
Don't forget your homies, can't forget my homies

This jam is dedicated to moi
That's right you guys it's just for...

Me, I believe in me
'Cause I take care of me
It took so long to see
All I really need is me
Faith and family
Has finally made me see
No matter what I face
All I need is me

Everybody says they know me better than I know myself
But I don't know nobody else has felt what I felt
Did what I did or been where I been
But have to defend myself again and again
Let it end where it begins
Who cares what the cause is
Too many bosses cause divorces
And I don't take losses
Well I play with a team
But I'm a Diana Ross and not a Supreme
You think you got me all figured out
Ohh so I'm so shallow 
The only thing I'm tryin' to get is a bigger house
No part of my need is a company
Where I can hire my own people
To live out their dreams
So tell me
What's happenin' to all of ya'll people with low self-esteem
What you want me to cry on your shoulder
So you can turn around and laugh and talk about it when it's over

Me, I believe in me
'Cause I take care of me
It took so long to see
All I really need is me
Faith and family
Has finally made me see
No matter what I face
All I need is me

I done sold 30 mill, dated, then made you want it
When it got too convenient, I just gave it up
I don't need the stress
I don't need the pain
I do need the checks
But don't need the games
Ohh my how could him and I be the same
When the house burnt down
Only I made the blame
When the money got funny, I took it to court
When most of y'all scrubs
Wouldn't have even fought it
When the group had issues, I laid in thought
Corrected the bad news, I heard in interviews
How many of you really know Lisa? Not many!
It's not contrary, it's fear, I don't know you either
I'm responsible for more than you'll ever know or see
So many things you don't know happened because of me
From Blaque, to the designs of the stage, that was me
So how could any of ya'll be mad at me?

Me, I believe in me
'Cause I take care of me
It took so long to see
All I really need is me
Faith and family
Has finally made me see
No matter what I face
All I need is me

Everybody says all they want is the truth
Well the truth is I still got love for my group
But you don't really want the truth when it's concernin' you
You want to hear that no one's doin' better than you
You love to hear the pain
You love to hear the struggle
You love to know that paradise
Has got trouble
The only trouble we ever had
Is you bein' involved
You gettin' involved where you don't belong
When my faith started to waver it was like I was done
I felt like Brian McKnight I was "Back At One"
The only one that was
The only one that ever
The only one I need
The one and only me
Because if I hadn't told you it was on different planes
You would think that I meant our flights ain't the same
My only crime was I was so blind
Didn't know I had everything I wanted all the time

Me, I believe in me
'Cause I take care of me
It took so long to see
All I really need is me
Faith and family
Has finally made me see
No matter what I face
All I need is me

Me, I believe in me
'Cause I take care of me
It took so long to see
All I really need is me
Faith and family
Has finally made me see
No matter what I face
All I need is me

Me, I believe in me
'Cause I take care of me
It took so long to see
All I really need is me
Faith and family
Has finally made me see
No matter what I face
All I need is me

A quick story from rags to riches
Comin' to you from Supernova (AKA Left Eye)
Give it to 'em, give it to 'em, give it to 'em (ha ha)

I'm goin', I'm goin' from rags to riches (ha ha ha ha)
I'm goin', I'm goin' from rags to riches (ha ha ha ha)

I started off as an army brat (Atten-hut!)
Seven months old class act
I was racing down the block
As a matter of fact
I could've been a track star (I guess I am)
I stacked bars
Comin' through your system in them phat cars (uh)
Cross country isn't that far
It's like I'm in the race, don't know who you cats are
See one day I fell from grace, landed in this place
My innocence erased from talkin' back to my momma's face
Like I was lost in space
Without a trace, cuttin' class, bein' Mrs. Fast Ass
Gettin' blasted with my dad, got caught up in the flash
My Nana goin' straight mad, had to make the dash
Saw a fella through the streets
Who would give anything for cash
And anything to crash in anybody's path
If everything I had
Look at what I could grab (check it)
And it was just a bunch of niggas

I'm goin' from rags to riches
From rags to riches
I'm goin' from rags to riches
I bet you I'mma be the richest
I'm goin' from rags to riches
From rags to riches
I'm goin' from rags to riches
I bet you I'mma be the richest

I'm goin' from rags to riches
From rags to riches
I'm goin' from rags to riches
I bet you I'mma be the richest
I'm goin' from rags to riches
From rags to riches
I'm goin' from rags to riches
I bet you I'mma be the richest

Ding ding the bell ring, landlord causin' a scene
Mama diggin' for her green, last dolla (dolla bill)
To pay for the phone bill, electric bill, water bill
How you feel when you make a mill?
And move your mama to a house on the hill
With picture framed TV's on the wall
Hard and I'm pissed when she wanna ball
A cell phone for when she wanna call
She ballin' out of control
With her own bank roll, I got her back though
One for the money and two for the show
Mama floors stayin' clean 600 green outside
Showin' them the many ways that God provides in life
Or who can see the bigger picture
And tell a story from goin' dead broke to gettin' richer
Knowin' I'm gettin' with you in this paper chase
Rags to riches all up in your face

I'm goin' from rags to riches
From rags to riches
I'm goin' from rags to riches
I bet you I'mma be the richest
I'm goin' from rags to riches
From rags to riches
I'm goin' from rags to riches
I bet you I'mma be the richest

I remember sellin' weed
Can't believe that I was poisonin' my folk
Now I let my throat be the antidote
Always kept my hopes high
Now mama don't cry, 'cause I'll be close by
With the most high I was playin' Robin Hood (in the hood)
Little Red Riding Hood
Til' the barrel pointed where I stood (yeah, I stood)
But walked away like I was absolutely positively sure I could
Attitude on drugs
A few dollars in the bucket
And scheming steady dreaming
For a chance to make some duckets
Caused a little ruckus on the sideline
From the alley way to Cali, on the Grammy day
Went from disarray to mayday, mayday, mayday
Ran away from the sickness with a quickness
And went from rags to riches

I'm goin' from rags to riches
From rags to riches
I'm goin' from rags to riches
I bet you I'mma be the richest
I'm goin' from rags to riches
From rags to riches
I'm goin' from rags to riches
I bet you I'mma be the richest

I'm lovin' everybody that's tryin' to get it from rags to riches
From nuttin' to somethin' (ha ha right)
You know what I'm sayin'
I'm nuttin' but a quickie story from rags to riches
To all my mournin' ghetto superstars out there
Much love!
I'm backin' everybody, East coast, West coast, the Midwest
Everything you know what I'm sayin', it's all hip hop
Much love!

We all came from rags and went to riches
And the ones that's still messin' with them rags
You know what I'm sayin'
Keep your head up (know what I'm sayin')
Somethin' bound to happen
For sure though...

. . .



See it was one of them days (yeah)
Like wakin' up in the stormy weather in your mind thinkin'
Ooohh, this could be so much better (I'm tellin' y'all)
I'll never forget her
Black leather down for whatever
My nigga's sweatin' me
So we sittin' in this club
Where the ladies rub-a-dub
They solicitin' their love
Me and my man about as tight as you can get it
So he admitted that he wanted to hit it
I said now wait a minute, I can contest
To bein' 'bout as open-minded as it gets 
When it comes to sex
'Cause I believe in time and space and what a waste
If you can't really have your time and space
So what was the use?
But to swallow my pride to love and let loose of this feelin' inside
Said if you want it that bad then you should have it
And then he smiled and said I want you to grab it

True confessions of a broken heart
I learned my lesson now I'm torn apart
Everybody's got a story
About how they lost their one and only
True confessions of a broken heart
I learned my lesson now I'm torn apart
Everybody's got a story
About how they lost their one and only

I'm on the hunt to get my nigga what he wants
From back to front of the club
She's tryin' to pull a stunt
Even though they got the lights down low
I can see the whole dance floor
She must have slipped out the back door
Rather than goin' back empty handed
I know this ain't the way he planned it
I do as if commanded
Hmm let's see who next be the finest
Who next be the best for sex
And messin' with his Highness
So I took another look and guess who's back
I'm off the hook
It's the lady in black
Excuse me Miss, see that man sittin' at the table
He wants to know
If you're ready willin' and able
So she followed me and obviously
My man is gonna want a little privacy but I was wrong
He turned it up another notch
Asked if she went tongue to crotch
And said he wants to watch

True confessions of a broken heart
I learned my lesson now I'm torn apart
Everybody's got a story
About how they lost their one and only
True confessions of a broken heart
I learned my lesson now I'm torn apart
Everybody's got a story
About how they lost their one and only

So now I'm thinkin' what have I done and gotten' into?
Maybe this will be strong and maybe monumental
As I look in her eyes what is she gonna say?
Never thought I'd be in dismay when I woke up today
She said her thing ain't girls we in three different worlds
So he mentioned instead that he wanted some head
She obliged no menage then fled
We were straight for 'bout a month
Until pure lust were the topics we discussed
Though I didn't mind he wants it all the time
More women and all I've been in
Spreadin' venom and still wanna be mine
So I told him one day can't do it any more
He reacts so relaxed
Said he's done with them for sure
Then I caught him one weekend
Cheatin' and creepin' duct's leakin' don't speak
I'll be leavin'

True confessions of a broken heart
I learned my lesson now I'm torn apart
Everybody's got a story
About how they lost their one and only
True confessions of a broken heart
I learned my lesson now I'm torn apart
Everybody's got a story
About how they lost their one and only

. . .



Untouchable, look at how you found me
I'm lookin' around sayin' these are my friends
It's a strange world my enemies are my friends
More of the same street, same world, same problems
Is this indifferent?
Same drama, same karma, same mama
Is it different?
The only difference is me
I see inside the truth
Feel bad you don't know the day gon' come
When God has taken you
I see the invisible spirits, walkin' along the physical mind
Of a crazy individual
Where demons still find it livable
I need a hug to hold my soul inside my body
I got the secret here
Yeah, I should have told somebody
'Cause ever since I've been sayin' things I never meant
It's like I was speakin' in tongues, the black breath in my lungs
I won't allow it
Where the cowards live under the dirt in the flowers
Ready to come up in the darkest hour
It ain't the courage of my persona
You wanna admire it's the faith
'Cause with the faith I can walk through the fire
(Now feel me)

I know you feel me it's the untouchable
Make yourself presentable
I'm listenin' to mysteries of the untold (uh-oh)
Echoin' inside my soul
I know you feel me it's the untouchable
Make yourself presentable
I'm listenin' to mysteries of the untold (uh-oh)
Echoin' inside my soul

Sometimes I'm feelin' like I'm sinkin'
Thinkin' what it's like from on the other side
When I look at myself it's like my love had died
People thinkin' of gettin' richer
I'm usin' the blood of the loves that I lost recently
To paint a perfect picture
Can you see the future, future endeavors
That'll make us better
Usin' the light from my wings to make us fly together
Guide my people to a place like what you imagined
My duty now is to God
There's no more beauty pageants we gettin' the chance to thank Him
Me and you finally for what they made
Is it a game that they still playin'
Look at us now we're rid of grief
Payin' society's debt but life we still obeyin'
Until then I'll follow the path
Where will it lead?
Much in between ashes and dust
We must believe trickin' thee ain't trickin' me
I got tricks up my sleeve
They tryin' to market I'm tryin' to make my mark before I leave

I know you feel me it's the untouchable
Make yourself presentable
I'm listenin' to mysteries of the untold (uh-oh)
Echoin' inside my soul
I know you feel me it's the untouchable
Make yourself presentable
I'm listenin' to mysteries of the untold (uh-oh)
Echoin' inside my soul

I know you feel me it's the untouchable
Make yourself presentable, make yourself presentable
I will ride untouchable
After the fire comes the rain
After the pleasure there's pain
Even though we broke for the moment
We ball in the game
Time to make y'all my military
Be prepared for the busters
I'mma let ya bitches that's scary
Get to hear me no questions
Visions of overpacked prisons
Flingin's and niggas thug livin', precious
Three strikes, I hope they don't test us
And pull a heater ammunition is great
Move without a sound
And we slide down pistols in place
I'm sensin' niggas just defenses
From hittin' bitches to gettin' those
Who can prevent the shootin' senses
At these niggas throats only wish to breed
I explode into a million seeds y'all remember me
Legendary live eternally then bury me in pieces
'Cause they fear reincarnation, niggas screamin' peace
'Cause they fear
We must wanna face 'em, take 'em to places
Fake their fates then erase 'em, and break 'em
Murder my niggas I'm tired of waitin'
Now quicken the pace
Blast me but never ask me to live a lie
Am I wrong 'cause I wanna get it on til' I die?
Now worldwide
Niggas got the black girls, they hide
No offense to Nas
But this whole fuckin' world is mine
Even if you blind
You can still see my prophecy
My destiny to overthrow
Those on top of me fiendin' for currency
The money be callin'
Can you feel me dreamin'?
Seein' scenes of me ballin'?
Niggas that made niggas and that bitch
What you goin' through
Outlaws bustin' while we rush it
Untouchable
Niggas that play fucked up now what you goin' through
We outlaws rushin' 'em bustin'
We untouchable, untouchable, untouchable (uh-oh)

Echoin' inside my soul, untouchable (uh-oh)
Echoin' inside my soul, untouchable (uh-oh)
Echoin' inside my soul, untouchable (uh-oh)
Echoin' inside my soul, untouchable (uh-oh)

Echoin' inside my soul
Ya'll niggas never stop, you never drop, you never let me fall
Me 2 Pacalypse
All I know how to do is ball, ball, ball
My true fuckin' niggas survived reincarnation
After I'm dead they'll rock and roll
And bring the funk to the whole nation
And you know these fuckin' niggas
Have a gun with my name on it, untouchable
I spit the game so clear it's playin' on it
When I'm dead
My niggas will ride for me
Untouchable (untouchable)
Untouchable (untouchable)
Untouchable (untouchable)
Expect me like you expect Jesus to come back
Expect me nigga, I'm comin'

Keep on you so try
Keep on singing let's try
Keep on moving try

Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try
Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try

To all my little shorties coming up in school
Don't forget what they said about the golden rule
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"
Your life is what you make it, and that's true
And if you don't know what I'm talkin' 'bout
Then listen up to what a beat
You better watch what's coming out'cha mouth
'Cause while you're talkin' 'bout your friends
Showing these messages you sent
Gotta real funny way of comin' back again
I know that life can be a struggle (struggle, struggle)
You stayin' in and out of trouble (trouble, trouble)
Weapons used, killin' our youth
What's up with that?
You feelin' used and abused
Wanna strike back
Then do yourself a favor
Take the anger, flip it around
I'm telling you He's the savior
There's more to life than you may ever know
But you must recognize
What it means to grow

Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try
Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try

In the mist of all this confusion, burnt bridges turn into bruises
I conjure flames out in fusion, mental combustion to music
Compells the demons to shatter
Miscontrusing the fantastic
Imagine how clear is to plastics
Time to fault the unnatural
Copin' and dealin', makin' me feel like I'm about to burn any second
Losin' the feelin' like life is depressin'
Generations are burnin' and people ain't the same no more
For real 'cause he drops, she drops, what happend to the fall we rise?
It's nothin' but encouragement, we encourage with pride
If you instill the blessings and return to now for no lie
Unfold your eyes, don't be blinded by the pain and the tears
You never dried
Realize peer pressures of our young adolescents
Bulletproof vestin'
And searchin' for questions
We tell them everything but the truth
For instance there's pride inside
Squash the bullshit and you'll be all right
And we'll make it to that other side

Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try
Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try

Now as we step into the light and grab the mic
Let's try to look for difference between wrong and right
You know they listenin' to everything that we resite
But if it's glistenin', that makes it a'ight
We got shorties on the blocks who know they glocks
Believe it or not
We raisin' the last generation through Hip-Hop
We can't forget about Playstation, you don't stop
What's wrong with the nation? It's flip-flop
But we can turn it all around, starting with the sound
Spreadin' love from the Rock 'N Roll to the Underground
We gotta take control of our minds, bodies, and souls
Never fall, never fold, never fold
And then let the truth be told, there it go
Let it show
Open your mouth, and let it flow
Into the depths and through the blackest hole
We can find rainbows and a pot of gold

Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try
Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try

Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try
Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try

Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try
Keep your head to the sky
Lift your life and reach high
Wipe your tears and don't cry
You will make it if you try

It's for the open minded

Now
Now what do you believe?
Who do you receive?
Where do you go next?
And through what exit do you leave?
The questions that I believe confessions go to He
Count your many lessons and blessings that they bring
This is for my breed and all life that is conceived
Energy told me you manifest your destiny
What is energy?
It's what you eat
It's what you breathe
It's what you think
It permeates throughout your being
And serves a link to all other energies
That's anything and everything
Moving light that you have never seen
And light carries information
Without hesitation vibrations glean
Through the constellation, manifestation stimulated
Better destination, total creation realizations
And mental concentration
Alienated from the truth
Is why we conversated
Savin' the nation for the youth
Is for my observation

Are you free or are you guided?
Do you make your own decisions?
Our only responsibility is love (love)

Let's touch on Christianity
I question all humanity
Is God so full of vanity?
That children enter this family
Who haven't yet to see that Jesus is the key
Or suffer this calamity, I cast you down for an eternity
Insanity
You can call me what you want to
But the man in me
Separated from this false reality
Would never be the victim of casualty
For my lack of understanding there's a guarantee
Spirituality has immortality
No matter your status or nationality
What's your locality notice the fallacy
We're all separated by principalities
Billions of galaxies and all you see is this
In the totality of eternal bliss
A life of sin it's all the kin

Are you free or are you guided?
Do you make your own decisions?
Our only responsibility is love (love)

Are you free or are you guided?
Do you make your own decisions?
Our only responsibility is love (love)

You see, we like to make things complicated
You don't have to read books and go to church
To learn about God
And find out
We don't know how to talk to each other
You know if we all just be quiet
Then we'll realize that we can really hear each other
And then you'll realize that you already have the answers

Are you free or are you guided?
Do you make your own decisions?
Our only responsibility is love (love)

Are you free or are you guided?
Do you make your own decisions?
Our only responsibility is love (love)

Do you make, make your own?
'Cause you're all on your own
Do you all make, make your own?
'Cause you're all on your own

Do you make, make your own?
'Cause you're all on your own
Do you all make, make your own?
'Cause you're all on your own

Do you make, make your own?
'Cause you're all on your own
Do you all make, make your own?
'Cause you're all on your own

I believe when someone passes away
Either a star is born, energy so pure
That it creates new worlds
Or as the soul releases
Shatters into pieces
Becoming free flowing thoughts
For my mental thesis
Maybe we just don't understand
The spirits that still walk the land
Or whatever the case
I believe that we all still remain
To share the same space

So dad, I know you're listenin'
How you been?
Oh, I'm doin' fine, just passin' time
Submerged in sin sometimes I take a bath
And just get all dirty again
I try to cleanse my mind, cleanse my soul and get in
Into that place you've been
No, I'm not tryin' to rush anything
I just wanna visit you because I miss you
So what you tryin' to say?
My imagination been wild since I been a child
And since you're laughin' then
I take it that good things are happenin'

The day I learned you were gone
A new star was born
Distant voices fill my mind
Said look up in the sky
And when I did there you were

Well, I'm sure you already know this
I'm a big pop star
And my pops is a star (ha ha)
No, you really are
Sometimes I feel like an anus
I kinda made you a little famous
Always spillin' my guts
Explainin' to these people who think I'm nuts
Told them how you and moms knuckled up
My excuse for being such a disrupt
Yeah, they sure did
They called you an abusive drunk
Sorry, I didn't realize the media would run with it
But now I know and sometimes I try to have fun with it

The day I learned you were gone
A new star was born
Distant voices fill my mind
Said look up in the sky
And when I did there you were

What did you say you wish to be free
Been here all this time because of me
And on August 16, 2001
Anything that I wish to release
Release? I see.
First of all I give you my thanks for preparing me
To be open and free
I release my mind releasin' my soul
Release the courage to break the mold
Release my record 20 million sold
Release my pops you're free to go
Create a new galaxy, yes dad
You'll still be right next to me

The day I learned you were gone
A new star was born
Distant voices fill my mind
Said look up in the sky
And when I did there you were

The day I learned you were gone
A new star was born
Distant voices fill my mind
Said look up in the sky
And when I did there you were

Woman of my own and tranquil key
No I'm not just the L out of TLC
Songstress for the longest
Felt more adappa as a rappa
Start to make what it seems
It's more mind over matter
Have fun
Comin' with beats & rhymes
But it's not so sweet in this light of lime
Sometimes when you make it people get mad
Throw buckets grab, backs get stabbed
It was a hard struggle, meaning shit
Now it's hard just tryin' to juggle this, among shit
So people see the smile
All the while I have an inner child
That's cryin' denial (cry in denial)
Cryin' no smile, cryin' with style of beguile
In piles in aisles of niles
Meanwhile seem so senile, fakes monsters
I'm docile, fragile
I show gentile smiles, I take it a mile
People don't see the truth, in this booth
Under my tongue, over my tooth (ah-ooohh)
Eight nine spoof of my inner youth
Innocence

So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange
So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange

Just breathe and let it go (let it go)
Just breathe and let it go (let it go)

It seems right, do the math
Sportin' laughs, bubble baths, autographs
Awards and claps
The glistenin' only comes if people listenin'
But to a lyricist, chastising conniving, criticists
Gotta earn your bliss, unchill your wrists
I know you mince, add bills to rent
So now you owe me
That's why I'm so into it
This tapestry
Put you abstract, non-skilled folks can't see
I hinted at them, add tracks
Don't care if you're mad at
I speak the past
I speak rash spirits
Universal, helped my lyric rehearsals of the here's
Become an adult from peers, much fears, such tears
Scorned from revelations dawn
Things I do like, morning lawns
I'm morning poems
That now yawnin' on
They're not spawning wands (they're not spawning wands)
This here wand has a magic stick
Throat-wise called the Larynx
Helps me spill it, my utter of a mind
I milk it
So that it hits your back with spiritual parmalat
I farm the black
Spirit staff, Spirit staff, Spirit staff

So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange
So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange

Just breathe and let it go (let it go)
Just breathe and let it go (let it go)

So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange
So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange

Just breathe and let it go (let it go)
Just breathe and let it go (let it go)

This one right here
Goes out to everybody
And it doesn't matter who you are
Cuz I know that everybody
Has a friend (friend)

What defines a friend
The meaning where does it lie?
In the mind
In the money
In the face
In in the eyes
In the days and the nights
Well what is a friend
Do you love it and leave it
Again and again?
Now our story begins
Of two little friends
You would've thought they were twins
Would've thought they was kin
Wouldn't think they could manage
All the time they would spend
For each other they'd fend
For their friends till the end
And their mothers know mothers
Sisters know brothers
Mothers know fathers
Sons know their daughters
Blood thicker than water
If one had 50 cents
They'd both have a quarter
It only makes sense
That destined love was in order
They grew up together
From pre-K to high school
Winters in the snow
Summers in the pool
He's an athlete
She's an actress
But hormones would lead them to the mattress

[Chorus]
I thought you were my friend (friend)
Together through thick and thin (friend)
Like it we were
All the things that we've been through
I put so much trust in you
Back then (friend)
Now what kind of friend
Could you have been

Not furious just curious
She saw himself fit
Who better than a boy
The girl grew up with
How 'bout all the walks in the park
On the phone all night
Dreams like that she saw in plain sight
To his friends he's urgin'
The simple fact she's a virgin
To her he'll be urgin'
Sexually lets merge
As you can see
There's two different dreams
Her thoughts are so pure
His low as the floor
She's lookin'
He's gawkin'
They're walkin' and talkin'
About a new stage and phase
That they should embark in
So it came to that night
No dinner no candlelight
The female exhales
Somethin' doesn't feel right
She said it polite
Honey please not tonight
He didn't get in it
So he got real malignant
He hit her
It hurt
Her breath got suspended
Then he looked at his work
Not feelin' so splendid

[Chorus]

Their meeting had ended
Feelin' offended
He went and attended
A counselin' session
Now life is a lesson
Full of questions
Why we drown down
Rather than manifestin'
Went to his friend
Right from the beginnin'
With tears in his eyes
Said I apologize
She much obliged
Made amends
Once again
They're friends to the end
Yeah it was true love again
As transparent as lens
As apparent as kin
What defines a friend
Where does it lie
In the mind
In the money
In the face
In the eyes
In the days and the nights
What is a friend
Do you love and leave it
Again and again
In the time
In the sadness
In the hurt
In the pride
It's the person dispersin'
Through the hands of time

[Chorus]

Oh
Oh oh
I thought you were my friend
What kind of friend?
What kind of friend?

The alarm clock rung
Momma woke her out the bed
She's gettin' dressed for school
Puttin' barrettes in her head
An honor roll student real smart
That's what they said
Every morning when she left
Mom would cook her grits and eggs
Pops worked two jobs
To bring in the bread
Momma stayed in the kitchen
And kept her well fed

Now here she go
Quick to meet her friends
At the bus stop
On the avenue
That's when the old Cadillac dropped
The man that was drivin'
Snatched her up around 8 o'clock
While her friends and the bus driver
Waitin' down the block
No one heard her screamin'
He turned the bass up a notch
She was tampered with
Second floor in an abandoned spot
No telephone around
So she couldn't call the cops
He threw her in the bathroom
Made sure the door was locked
All she was thinkin'
"Why me?" and "Will it stop?"
All she was thinkin'
"Why me?" and "Will it stop?"
It's a damn shame

Chorus:
Damn shame
That someone
That someone would want to mess with you
And you just can't get them out your mind
Try to replace bad times with smiles
Let it out
Out right now
I know it's hard to talk about
You gotta keep going on with your life
Letting it out
Don't you let it back away

The school bell rung
For the first hour of school
Her teacher called her moms
Cuz she thinks she's skippin' school
But if only they knew
What was really goin' on
She's cryin' for your help
While y'all talkin' on the phone
The teacher's on the wrong subject
Sayin' that she think she grown
Somebody call the police
Damn callin' up Tyrone
So her mother filed a report on her own
This is the description that she gave what was known

Fifteen
She was last seen
Standin' on the corner
Eatin' ice cream
At the bus stop
On 10th Street and Milly Ave.
Just a few feet
From the spot
Where she stayed
Cute mini skirt
And french braids
Hundred-ten pounds
What she weighed
5 foot 2
Eyes blue-grey

Chorus

Now back to the abandoned spot
Where she's tryin' to pick the lock
So he threw her in his 'lac
Ridin' with the doors locked
Drove her through the woods
That was right around the block
Dropped her off at the hospital
In the parking lot
The school bell rung
For the end of a class
At the same time
She was runnin' in the flash
To go and call her mother
But her mother isn't there
And when she finally seen her
Speculation filled the air
Her momma don't believe her
She's keeps callin' her tricks and whores
Sayin' I told you 'bout them older men before
Her father didn't neither
Afraid to face the sticks and stones
And now she's searchin' for the grace to carry on
It's a damn shame

Chorus

Let it go
Let it go
I know it's hard
But you should let it go
Life goes on and you should know
If you let it go
Let it go

Let it go
You should let it go
I know you'll make it
If you let it go
Life goes on and you should know
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
I know it's hard
But you should let it go
Life goes on and you should know
If you let it go
Let it go
