Let Go

Five in the mornin' I'm laying here with you
I could really stay here all night
Cause we just finished making love
But you and I've got work at nine
I swear that you've become my new addiction
With you I spend all my money and time
(But you're worth it baby)
(Your love is amazing baby)
I don't wanna let go
I don't wanna let this feeling go
I don't wanna let this feeling go
For once in my life, it all makes sense
The stars were aligned
When I
(I dreamed of your presence)
Now that you are here and you're all mine
The time that we spend it brings sentiment to my life
Right now my body is subdued by you
And your body’s mesmerized by mine
(As we hold on to this moment)
I don't wanna let go
I don't wanna let this feeling go
I don't wanna let this feeling go
I don't wanna let this feeling go
I don't wanna let this feeling go
I don't wanna let this feeling go
I don't wanna let this feeling go
You just go here I don't wanna lose
In this game I'm playing with you
Boys be lyin'
You might be the truth
On another level you're taking me to
Let’s get lost in the moment
If I could capture this moment
(Then I would just rewind us)
Then I would just rewind us

(What's it all about)
Wake up early
Make my coffee
Headed to the office
(That type of love)
See the kids off to the yellow bus
We be caught up in the morning rush
(That type of love)
Whole time he's the only thing on my mind
Mellow like a glass of
(That type of love) wine
I never have to beg or plead
We in this together and we're all we need
(That type of love)
He gets respect from his homies
They say “Man, you gotta good woman there”
They know he ain't chasing
Contentment in the smile that he wears
All day, thinking 'bout me
Taking off, picking up the kids early
He calls me passion fruit cause I'm his juicy
I raise the temperature about 100 degrees
Let no man and let no woman come between us
Let no paper bill or children come between
You and I
(The love between)
You and I
(It’s a mystery)
You and I
(The union between)
You and I
It about the type of love that’ll change you
(Break you down, lift you up)
It’s about the type of love that don’t add up
You take one plus one, you still get one
It's about the type of love that’ll sustain you
(Hold you down, build you up)
It's about the type of love that never takes away
That keeps giving in overflow everyday
Let no man and let no woman come between us
Let no paper bill or children come between
You and I
(The love between)
You and I
(It’s a mystery)
You and I
(The union between)
You and I, you and I, you and I
(The love between)
You and I
(It's a mystery)
You and I, you and I
(the union between)
Let no man and let no woman come between us
Let no paper bill or children come between
You and I
You and I
You and I

They say you can’t miss
What you never had
Oh but I miss
This feeling so bad
Being around my family
Grandma lovin' me
Oh I wonder how it’d be
If I never had to leave
The place I called
(Home)
I wanna go
(Home)
I wanna go
(Home)
Home
I want to go back home
I wanna go
(Home)
Home
I want to go back there
Home is where the heart of Africa is
My land
Congo is where all my forefathers lived
I know
What I long for is to be around them
Smiling and laughing
I’d find my rhythm in their
Singing and their dancing
Oh I wanna go back there
(Home)
Home
I want to go home
I wanna go home
(Home)
I wanna go home
(Home)
Home
I wanna go
(Home)
To see
Fresh air, clear sky
I need it
Even if it’s only on vacation
Five years old
I had to leave
The leaders
And the murdering had us all going crazy
Wish I could speak to all the rebels in the east
Wish I
Could hit em with some wisdom from Patrice
So they
Really know the value of their soul
Black power equals black gold
I wanna go home
(Home)
Home
I want to go home
I wanna go home
(Home)
I wanna go home
(Home)
I want to go back home
I wanna go home
(Home)
It's been too long
(Home)
I gotta go
I gotta go
(Home)
Where I'm from
I wanna go
(Home)
Oh that's my home
the people oh
(Home)
The people are my own
Oh the people that I've known
In my memories
And they never die
(Home)
They never die
I wanna go
(Home)
Memories they never die
(Home)
(Home)
(Home)

Can't Stop

I know I can’t afford to stop
(It's right around the corner)
I know I can’t afford to stop
(Believe it if you wanna)
I know I can't afford to stop
(It’s right around the corner)
I know I can’t afford to stop
(You got to believe)
Can’t stop the rain from falling
Can’t stop these tears from pouring down
Sometimes I just wanna step down
Stop the labor pains too much
Pushing this work is just too tough
It’s really trying my patience
But a wise man told me
Never become weary in doing good
Time to reap fruits will come if you don’t give up
Get started doing, trying is lying
It’s up to Him how high you flying
I know I can't afford to stop
(It's right around the corner)
I know I can’t afford to stop
(Believe it if you wanna)
I know I can’t afford to stop
(It’s right around the corner)
I know I can't afford to stop
I can’t, I can’t
I am not gonna quit
I am not sick of this
No
I am not gonna quit
I’m gonna see it to the end
(You got to believe)
The bigger picture too big for me
(Too much to view)
I'm choking on ideas
(Too much to chew)
I'm feeling overwhelmed
(Too much to do)
Too much to do
But a wise man told me
Never become weary in doing good
Time to reap fruits will come if you don’t give up
You can’t approach the battle the same way twice
Darkness is always frightening until some light
Peaks through
Let Him guide and teach you
Give you life and lead you
He trusts you why don’t you believe
(Believe in yourself)
I know if I just take one step forward
That it’s right around the corner
I know, I know
(I can't afford to stop)
Now
(You've got to believe)
Everyday I’m getting closer to that moment
That'll be worth my tears
That I cried
And when I get there
You know I’m gonna own it
‘Cause it’s all I ever wanted
One step is all I have to take
I believe
Everything's working out for my good
Everything is working out for my good
Everything is working out for my good
Everything is working out for my good
Everything is working out for my good
Everything is working out for my good
(I know I can’t afford to stop)
It’s right around the corner

Bring it down
It’s getting hotter
Toll is rising
The stakes are high
Bring it down

Children are suffering
In West Africa
An alarm is sounding
(Sounding there is a war that’s)
Unfolding

We’ve got to do something

Do nothing

In so deep ain’t no point in ever leaving
Soul intertwined there’s no end and no beginning
I feel like I know now that this is commitment
We trust in the choices we made in each other
Selfishness takes a back seat to wisdom
And I surrender to you
I'm more than in love
(We go)

Deeper baby

More than in love

(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
It’s all that I can say

Oh baby
When we make love
And the love we make shows in all of these babies
(Let my)
You're my beloved
(Beloved come into his garden and eat the choicest fruit)
You can eat the choicest fruit
I'm more than in love
(We go deeper than most)
More than just a feeling
(We go deeper than most)
You show me that’s it real
(We go deeper than most)
You show me, show me, show me, show me
It's more, it's more, it's more
(Deeper than most)
(We go deeper)
We go deep
(We go deeper)
(More than in love)
More than in love
(Deeper than most)
Deeper than most
(When we make love)
When we make love
That love we make shows in all of these babies
(Let my)
You're my beloved
(Beloved come into his garden and eat the choicest fruit)
You can eat the choicest fruit
I'm more than in love with you
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
