Alright Man,It's Time For You To Move. 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1

You're here, I'm pleased
I really dig your company
Your style, your smile, your peace mentality
Lord, have mercy on me
I was blind, now I can see
What a king's supposed to be
Baby I feel free, come on and go with me

1 - Let's take a long walk around the park after dark
Find a spot for us to spark
Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation
Share our situations, temptations, education, relaxations
Elevations, maybe we can talk about Surah 31:18

Your background it ain't squeaky clean shit
Sometimes we all got to swim upstream
You ain't no saint, we all are sinners
But you put your good foot down and make your soul a winner
I respect that, man you're so phat
And you're all that, plus supreme
Then you're humble man I'm numb
Yo with feeling, I can feel everything that you bring

Repeat 1

2 - Or maybe we can see a movie
Or maybe we can see a play on Saturday (Saturday)
Or maybe we can roll a tree and feel the breeze and listen to a symphony
Or maybe chill and just be, or maybe
Maybe we can take a cruise and listen to the Roots or maybe eat some passion fruit
Or maybe cry to the blues
Or maybe we could just be silent
Come on, Come on

Repeat 1

Repeat 2

Let's take a long walk around the park after dark
Find a spot for us to spark
Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation
Share our situations, temptations, education, relaxations
Elevations, maybe baby, maybe we can save the nation

Love rain down on me,on me,down on me(4x)

Met him on a thursday,sunny afternoon
Cumulus clouds, 84 degrees
He was brown,deep
Said he wanted to talk about my mission
Listen to my past lives (Word?)
Took me on long walks to places where butterflies rest easy
Talked about Moses and Mumia
Reparations,blue colors,memories of shell topped adidas
He was fresh,like summer peaches
Sweet on my mind like block parties and penny candy
Us was nice and warm,no jacket,no umbrella,just warm
At night we would watch the stars
And he would pyhsically give me each and every one
I felt like cayenne pepper,red,hot,spicy
I felt dizzy and so near the heavens and miles between my thighs
Better than love,we made delicious
He me had,had me he
He made me tongue tied
I could hear his rhythm in my thoughts
I was his sharp, his horn section
His boom and his bip
And he was my love

Love rain down on me,on me,down on me

The rain was fallin and,and slowly and sweetly and stinging my eyes
And I could not see that he became my voodoo priest
And I was his faithful concubine
Wide open,wide,loose like bowels after collard greens
The mistake was made
Love slipped from my lips
Dripped down my chin and landed in his lap
And us became new
Now me non-clairvoyant and in love
Made the coochie easy and the obvious invisible
The rain was falling
And I couldn't see the season changing
And the vibe slipping off it's axis
Our beautiful melody became wildly staccato
The rain was falling and I could not see
That I was to be plowed and sowed and fertilized
And left to drown in his sunny afternoon
Cumulus clouds,84 degrees,melody

Love rain down on me,on me,down on me (2x)

{Mos Def}
In stretched my arms towards the sky like blades of tall grass
The sun beat in between my shoulders like carnival drums
I sat still in hopes that it would help my wings grow
So then I would really be fly
And then she arrived
Like day break inside a railway tunnel
Like the new moon,like a diamond in the mines
Like high noon to a drunkard,sudden
She made my heart beat in a now-now time signature
Her skinny canvas for ultarviolet brushstrokes
She was the sun's painting
She was a deep cognac color
Her eyes sparkled like lights along the new city
She lips pursed as if her breath was too sweet
And full for her mouth to hold
I said,"You are beautiful,distress of mathematics."
I said,"For you, I would peel open the clouds like new fruit."
And give you lightning and thunder as dowry
I would make the sky shed all of its stars like rain
I would clasp the constellations around your waist
And I would make the heavens your cape
And they would be please to cover you
They would be pleased to cover you
May I please,cover you,please.

Slowly surely, slowly surely
I'll walk away from
that old desperate and tainted love
caught up in a maze of love
the crazy crazy love
thought it was good
thought it was real
thought it was
but it wasn't love

I just don't know
Where i should go
So
Slowly surely
I'll walk away from
self-serving
undeserving
constantly hurting me love
deserting me love
you said, I said, we said
but

Slowly surely
I'll walk away from
confusing love
misusing love
abusing love
this can't be

Slowly surely
I'll walk away from
self serving
undeserving
constantly hurting me love

I just don't know
where I should go
No
I just don't know
know, know, know
Where I should go
so

Slowly surely
I'll walk away from
that old desperate and dazed love
caught up in the maze of love
the crazy craze of love

thought it was good
thought it was real
thought it was
but it wasn't love

I just don't know where to go
So

Slowly surely
I'll walk away from
I'll walk away from
Slowly surely
I'll walk away from love
Oh
Lonely, surely one step at a time
but surely
I will pass the old love aside
and love me
Lonely,
surely I'll walk away from
slowly surely I'll walk away from desperating love
caught up in the maze love
crazy crazy crazy love
slowly surely, I'll walk away from (repeat 5 times)

No hay nadie mas que yo, uno es el numero magico
En vida y en muerte, uno es todo...comprende

If I multiply 2 times 2 is it really, really 4 me (La 6X)
And if I add 5 to get 9 minus 8 that just leaves me (Me 8X)
So many times I define my pride through somebody else's eyes (La da da, la da)
Then I looked inside and found my own stride, I found the lasting love for me
If I'm searching for my spirituality passionately I must begin with me

There's just me...One is the magic number 2X

If I add myself unto myself multiplied times you and yours and you again
There's just me
And if I divide 8 billion, 48 trillion, 98 zillion
There is... there is just me
If I subtract one plus me to the 5th degree, use any theorem
There's just me

There's just me...One is the magic number 2X

Me, me, me, me...

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

So good, so good, so good

1 - Do you remember me?

(Repeat 1 till end in background)

Don't you remember those days

And I'm still here

verse 1:

Sweeeeeeeeet Justice
Climb the Mountain
Though your hands maybe weary
Swim the ocean
Though your legs maybe tired
Run the extra mile
Though your stride maybe worn-down
Fight, Fight, Fight
Never surrender

Chorus:
Sweeeeeeeet Justice (repeat 1X)

verse 2:

Many sides to the same face
Searching, wanting their hour
So many colors in the spectrum of life
With right lies the power
Struggle, Struggle, Struggle, Struggle
Struggle only makes a man stronger
If he believes within his heart then he can find it
He will find it

Chorus:
Sweeeeeeeet Justice (repeat 1X)

Freedom the epitome of life
Lay your down your burden soldier
Study, study war no more, no more
Trust the soul that thrives within you
Hold strong to your faith

Sweeet Justice
Sweet Sweet Justice
Sweet Sweet Sweeeeeet Justice

Whoa!
She a big chick
Big o legs
Big o thighs
Big o hips
Big o ass
Big o tits
She so big!
Won't nobody even try to reach her mind
Age 14
Eyes green
Young tender, supple, and fine
All those oohs and ahhs slip as she lick her lips
Oh, they want to fuck her
The want to rub their dicks on her precious clitoris
They want to watch those big o tits settle and part a bit
They want to talk about it
Tell it
Spread it
Relive the conquest
How they beat on that ass and how the knock that shit
Don't stop
Won't stop
To recognize that there's more
More underneath that thickness
That sweet and round brown young tender thickness
Now they like her quite eager
Sweet and meager
Shhhhh!
Don't you complain about my other women
Just drop that big thick ass on my stiffness
Make me nut all upon your gut with the quickness
Don't stop
Won't stop
Lift it
Yea girl lift it
Lift it baby
Drop it again
Cause I aint your tribesmen no more
I aint your friend
Come on girl just let me in
Let me into all that thickness
That sweet and round brown supple bigness
Cause she so big won't nobody even try to reach her mind
She's been degraded, exploited, not celebrated
Saturated with self hatred
Let me say that again please:
She's been degraded, exploited, not celebrated
Saturated with self hatred
Cause every time she turns on the TV
What does she see, big o booty
And it don't have nothing to do with the song
Thus her definition of beauty
Thus her definition of beauty
Oh, oh, oh Lord
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
Let her
Let her recognize the magnificence you created
Lift her
Lift her
Lift her
Let her be elevated
Let her be elevated
Lord, Lord
Let her be elevated
Let her be elevated
Cause she is so big
She so big
She so big
She so big
She so big
She so big
She so big
She so big
Let her be elevated
