Let your spirit rise
Let your spirit rise
Let your spirit rise
We've come to free yo mind (so we can find)
The key to live a life sublime (is if)
You give all you can give
And live your life like it's a gift
If you wanna find your place
You gotta leave your space
Cuz that's the only way
You gonna elevate, yeah
You gotta hold the line
Until it's yo time
And just let your spirit shine
Well sometimes
There ain't no easy way
To say all the things
That we need to say
And we spend so much time
Looking for the easy road
When all we need
Is right there in our soul
Let your spirit rise
Let your spirit rise
Let your spirit rise
Let your spirit rise
You’ve got to free yo power (cuz yo life)
Yo life is like a flower (open up)
Yo heart share what's inside
Say what good is life if all you do is hide
You gotta shine your light for the world to see
And let everything be what it's gonna be
Listen to yo voice and make up yo choice
And just let your spirit shine
Well sometimes
There ain't no easy way
To say all the things
That we need to say
We spend so much time
Looking for the easy road
When all we need
Is right there in our soul
(Spirit rise)
You gotta let yo (spirit)
You gotta let yo (spirit)
You gotta let yo (spirit)
You gotta let yo
Spirit rise
You gotta let yo (spirit)
You gotta let yo
Spirit rise
And brain goes dumb
Searching to simplify the complex
Cuz I don't want nothin taken out of context
I see them repeating the cycle of annulling agreements
In effort of restoring their cornerstones
keeping their backs turned
as they piss in the name of God
Marrying liberty and justice
I type away until my fingers go numb
And brain goes dumb
Hoping to amplify the subject
Cuz I be damned if any man try to make you his object
Unless you object
I'm with whatever you decide
It's your world
I'ma stay in it fighting by your side
I won't try to control nor chastise your freedom of expression
Your decision is God's essence
Your freedom is God's presence
I know God is a girl
To all my Goddesses, you go girl
Keep defying all the odds
Keep defining what you call God
Include those transcendent boys and girls
They know
God is a girl, God is a girl
Yeah they know
God is a girl, God is a girl
I believe God's waiting to be set free
In everybody
I receive the message that she's black like me
Now I am complete
There should be no question
Does God love everyone
(Gay, straight, trans, them or they)
The point that I'll keep stressing
(God says)
Is she loves
(Give us)
Freedom
I know God is a girl
To all my Goddesses, you go girl
Keep defying all of the odds
Keep defining what you call God
Include those transcendent boys and girls
Cuz she ain't found in the legal system
She hates how men portray her in their religions
God is a girl, God is a girl
Yeah
(Wise folk know that God is a girl)
Who wants all to live free in her world
Her world
It's Her world
Everybody should be free
As an absolute paradise
And baby we got love
But can we keep it safe enough?
It’s not so easy, gonna keep us busy busy
I work hard
I play hard
I live and I love and I get scarred
What do you wanna do?
I love you
I need you
But we gotta make sure I don’t get to choose
‘Cause when I get loose
Everyone around gets bruised
Insecurities ooze, baby
Let’s be true
Us two
I wish I wanted you
And nothing more
Love me do
I knew
I should have told you
How I loved before
Let’s be true
Us two
I wish I wanted you
And nothing more
Love me do
I knew
I should have told you
How I loved before
For the sake of humanity
Man, I’m not your enemy
Can’t you see it with clarity?
I have the capacity, my love has gravity
Keepin’ us on the ground
Maybe
There is any chance for you to believe
I’m not foolin' you around, just perceive that
I’m mad, you’re mad, all in all we are glad
That we have each other and I’ll try not to be bad
I work hard
I play hard
I live and I love and I get scarred
What do you wanna do?
I love you
I need you
But we gotta make sure I don’t get to choose
‘Cause when I get loose
Everyone around gets bruised
Insecurities ooze, baby
Let’s be true
Us two
I wish I wanted you
And nothing more
Love me do
I knew
I should have told you
How I loved before
Let’s be true
Us two
I wish I wanted you
And nothing more
Love me do
I knew
I should have told you
How I loved before
See, funny thing about love is
You never really know when it's coming
But you better believe you’ll know when it's there
True story
I must have been searching
Though I wasn’t looking for much
Checking out the scene
Wasn’t trying to get my numbers up
You know I keep it cool
I prefer to stay in the cut
Don’t want no attention on me
When I’m trying to shake the blues up off me
But then I saw your face
Caused my heart to race
Girl you looking like a million bucks
Something about the way you strut your stuff
Girl you fine as you wanna
What I’m posed to do
Something told me got no time to lose
Go ahead and bust a move
Funny thing about love
When it comes and goes
You never know
So
You gotta keep your heart exposed
And you can be sure
There’s no cause and no cure
And if it wants you
Oh It’ll come and find you
Fall back just a little
Don’t wanna lead you on
Don’t wanna push a feeling
And make the feeling gone
You see I got your number
But still I ain’t used the phone
I let it breathe for a minute baby
Next thing I know you called
Damn
One thing I know about love
You never know when it’s coming
But you sure know when it does
One thing I know about love
You might get what you asked for
So you better be sure it's what you want
Funny thing about love
When it comes and goes
You never know
So
You gotta keep your heart exposed
And you can be sure
There’s no cause no cure
And when it wants you
Oh It’ll come and find you
One thing I know about love
You never know when it’s coming
But you sure know it when it does
One thing I know about love
You might get what you ask for
So you better be sure
Think something new
Under the sun
You can’t
Take back them things
That you already done
You blame (you blame)
Things that you do
On somebody else (that ain’t right)
But they all see
But they all see
It’s you
In need of help
Still you
Try
So hard
to cover up your games
You try
So hard
Hoping that one day
Something gon’ change
You waste
All of your time
Covering up your tracks
Spend all your days running away
Now you gotta watch your back
(And that’s the facts)
You spend
So much of your life scheming
And trying to get over
Wondering why
You come around
All you get is cold shoulders
Still you
Try
So hard
to cover up your games
You try
So hard
Hoping that one day
Something gon’ change
Still you
Try
So hard
to cover up your games
Gotcha thinking
Don’t nobody see
That after all this time
Still ain’t nothing changed
