All I GotGot these feet
In these shoes
They walked a mile or two,
Got these legs
They've done work
That's left them black and blue,
They are wide
Got these hands
BeyondAcross the room
Across the street
Across the water where the two big blues meet
Across the widest space til you reach infinity
My love will still be
Beyond the sorrow
Beyond regret
BravebirdIn a land far away where the sun doesn't spare a soul
And a twisted tradition has a girl in a strangle hold
Lies a desert with the footprints
Of little girls with a secret
Of a pain
That you and I could never know
CongoNow could we go to the square they call Congo
I need to go and lay my feet upon the stone
Where the first of us stood before, before, before
Where we came and played to revive our depleted souls
Where we went to forget our freedom was not our own
Where we went to hold onto the memory of way back home
Now could we
Dear To MeAs gravity is to every human
As the earth is to the trees
I couldn't drift away from your love because it's
implanted in my memory
If there was some uncertainty
[chorus]
DownDown where I'm going
Down cause you dance me around
And you're too busy to see
Down boy did you let me down
There's a permanent frown where my smile used to be
Pride has kept me from crawling
But sorrow is constantly calling
Earn My AffectionsI work hard for what I got
Plenty overtime
When I clock out I’m worn and beat down
But still ready to fly
( here you come with those )
unsteady eyes
like you been looking for something you cannot find
right through me
Even IfNever thought I would, find the words that could
Stand up through any weather
Something I could say, you could hear today
But stay with you forever
Just when I was losing my faith, and I was losing my way
It came to me as clear as day
[Chorus:]
For RealI can run, I can race for hours and hours and don't stop
I can float, I can fly us to the highest mountain tops
I can, I can live on your smile
I can breathe you, I can drink in your laugh
I can trip but, if I can fall into your arms
I can stay there my whole life
I can love
For Real в конце верхаI can run, I can race for hours and hours
And don't stop
I can float I can fly us to the highest
Mountain top I can breathe you, I can drink in your laugh
I can... I can live on your smile I can trip and if I can fall into your arms I can
Stay there my whole life
[Chorus]
Get UpMmm...
La da da da da da da da da da da da
La da da da da da da da da da da
6 a.m. gettin’ out of bed again
Can’t get back in ‘cause sleep ain’t gonna pay the rent
Day to day, I got you workin’ like a slave
Takin’ credit for the work you gave and stealin’ your raise, well I
Gills And Tailsi looked at my reflection in the water
thought what an unlikely pair
closed my eyes, held my breath, plummeted down,down,down
and anchored myself there
can't tell how long i've been
in the company of gills and tails
i think i feel my skin
Giving Something UpVERSE 1
'76 when a man
Told his wife 'baby doll sorry i can't stay'
Left with 5 kids she was forced to become
Superwoman and go earn some pay
Washing dishes in a man's world
A college-educated girl
Maybe you've been, maybe you are today
Infinite Possibilities21
Oh life has just begun
Got a temper like a gun
Pointing it at everyone
That's his game
And it helps him to get through the day
But a voice inside him says
How much longer can I play
Make Me WholeDarling I want you to listen
I stayed up all night, so I could get this thing right
And I don't think there's anything missing
Cause a person like you, made it easy to do
I've waited for so long, to sing to you this song
Cause your eyes are the windows to heaven
Your smile could heal a million souls
SacredIs there nothing sacred anymore
When
Celebrities are deified
And we're still calling some countries third world
And
Crimes against little ones
Are punished with little laws
And
Say You Want It AllYou say you want it all
To dip your fingers in the green
You say you want it all
The sun, the moon and what's in between
You say you want it all
You want the world to know your face
Baby haven't you heard
Every star can be replaced
ShineI made some decisions
Detrimental to my life
Put my trust in some translucent people
Now I see through them just fine
I've come back to the real world
And put my bitterness behind
Cuz revenge is not as sweet as my freedom
And no one's taking mine
Sweet MiseryHmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
I wish I didn't feel it
I know it just ain't right
But it seems to pop up in my head
Morning, noon, and night
I just can't release it
We Can Be NewCan you tell that I've been hurt so
Can you tell I wanna lay low
Can you tell that I'm a flower
Waiting for a sun shower
WearyThis woman is growing weary
Of having to be so strong
Of having to pretend I’m made of stone
So I won’t end up with no broken bones
