Home in honesty So tonight who's it gonna be? I'll sit right there and tell you all that comes to me And if you have something to say You should say it right now Give me a feeling that I'm not as impossible to ignore And I can't take it I was wondering maybe Could I make you my baby? So if you waste it, don't waste me, don't waste You said to me This is exactly how it should feel when it's meant to be Time is only wasting so what wait for eventually If we gonna do something about it We should do it right now Give me a feeling that I know I deserve it It's becoming something that's impossible to ignore It is what we make it I was wondering maybe Could I make you my baby? If we do the unthinkable Would it make us so crazy? Or would it be so beautiful? Either way I'm saying If you ask me, I'm ready I give up before we try Feel the lows before the highs Clip our wings before we fly Can't say I came prepared Won't you come be in the sky? But I got good enough If you ask me, I'm ready I'm sorry I'm late Mr. Bell, how you doing? I was late I'm sorry I'm so late Let me get that for you I got this sweetie You got it? Your boy just walked in He did? The hot chocolate Hot chocolate? Thanks And you'll never know how good it feels To get a chance to experience my lovin' Cause my lovin' feels like Will you ever know it? To Michael Oh hey, how you doing? I feel kinda silly doing this but uh This is the waitress from the coffeehouse on 39th and Lennox You know the one with the braids?

Yeah, that's interesting Look man, I mean I don't wanna waste your time but I know girls don't usually do this I was wondering if maybe we could get together Outside the restaurant one day You know cause I do look A lot different outside my work clothes I mean we could just go across the street to the park Right here Wait, hold up My cell phone's breaking, hold up Can you hear me now?

I think I'm gonna have the uh You want the special right? And the hot chocolate Some people live for the fortune Some people live just for the fame Some people live for the power, yeah Some people live just to play the game Some people think That the physical things define What's within And I've been there before But that life's a bore So full of the superficial Some people want it all But I don't want nothing at all If it ain't you baby Oh baby Some people want it all Some just want everything But everything means nothing If I ain't got you Some people search for a fountain That promises forever young You know Some people need three dozen roses And that's the only way to prove you love them And what good would it be When I share with no one Who truly cares for me Some people want it all I don't want nothing at all If it ain't you baby If I ain't got you baby Some people want diamond rings Some just want everything But everything means nothing If I ain't got you Some people want it all But I don't want nothing at all If it ain't you baby If I ain't got you baby Some people want diamond rings Some just want everything But everything means nothing If I ain't got you Yeah Let me get my carpet dirty with those big ass feet Want you close You can stay forever You can be sure That it will only get better You and me together Through the days and nights I don't worry cause Everything's gonna be alright People keep talking They can say what they like But all I know is Everything's gonna be alright No one, no one, no one Can get in the way of what I'm feeling No one, no one, no one Can get in the way of what I feel for you You, you And my heart is hurting You will always be alright I don't worry cause Everything's gonna be They can say what they like But all I Can get in the way of what I'm feeling Of what I feel for you You Define, to define Something so real So till the end of time I'm telling you There ain't no one She's just a girl and she's on fire Hotter than a fantasy Lonely like a highway She's living in a world and it's on fire Filled with catastrophe But she knows she can fly away Oh, oh, oh, oh She got both feet on the ground And she's burning it down Oh, oh, oh, oh She got her head in the clouds And she's not backing down Looks like a girl but she's a flame So bright she can burn your eyes Better look the other way You can try but you'll never forget her name She's just a girl but she's on fire Sometimes I love you Sometimes I feel good At times I'm loving you Oh, oh, oh, oh She was walking in the street Looked up and noticed He was nameless, he was homeless She asked him his name and told him what hers was He gave her a story about life With a glint in his eye And a corner of a smile One conversation, a simple moment The things that change us If we notice, when we look up, sometimes They said I would never make it But I was built to break the mold The only dream that I've been chasing is my own So I sing a song for the hustlers Trading at the bus stop Single mothers waiting on a jet to come Young teachers, student doctors Sons on the frontline Knowing they don't get to run This goes up to the underdog Keep on keeping at what you love And you'll find that someday soon enough You'll go rise up, rise up, yeah She's riding in a taxi back to the kitchen Talking to the driver about his wife and his children On a run from a country where they put you in prison For being a woman and speaking your mind She looked in his eyes in the mirror And he smiled One conversation, a single moment The things that change us If we notice, when we look up, sometimes They said I would never make it But I was built to break the mold The only dream that I've been chasing is my own So I sing a song for the hustlers Trading at the bus stop Single mothers waiting on a jet to come Young teachers, student doctors Sons on the frontline Knowing they don't get to run This goes up to the underdog Keep on keeping at what you love And you'll find that someday soon enough You'll go rise up, rise up, yeah You can ride I sing a song for the hustlers Trading at the bus stop Single mothers waiting on a jet to come Young teachers, student doctors Sons on the frontline Knowing they don't get to run This goes up to the underdog Keep on keeping at what you love And you'll find that someday soon enough You'll go rise up, rise up, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah This beautiful city seems empty All the people in the world And you can still feel lonely What's the point of having it all Without the person you love Sometimes you just need to start again In order to fly Used to dream of being a millionaire Without a care If I'm seeing my dreams and you aren't there Cause it's over That just won't be fair Darling On the street, no food to eat Have to cry Cause it's over Who said goodbye Last one Doesn't mean anything You're gone From before Seems I had it all Since you're gone I see myself through different eyes It's no surprise Being alone would make you realize When it's over Should've been there Should've, should've All that was Before Seems I had it all But it didn't mean anything Since you're gone I pushed you away What can I do that will save our love Take these material things They don't mean nothing It's you That I want All that was I had it all Doesn't mean anything Now that you're gone From before Seems I had it Mean anything Since you're gone Should've been there Should've, should've All that was I had it all But it doesn't mean anything Now that you're gone Seems I had it all Mean anything Since you're gone I want you to get those Get that blood flow stopping In the lower extremities Get those clothes off Compress There's a lot of blood Compress This isn't working We have to use the paddles again Charge Clear Good We're losing him More time I'm left to be here Would you cherish what we had Is it everything that You were looking for Do you feel your touch I've been wishing you were here Is it everything that I've been looking for Present is a gift And I don't wanna take for granted The time you may have here with me Cause Lord only knows Another day is not really guaranteed So every time you hold me Hold me like this is the last time Every time you kiss me Kiss me like you'll never see me again Every time you touch me Touch me like this is the last time Promise that you'll love me Love me like you'll never see me again Love is Is it everything that We are looking for I'm so thankful that I found Is it everything that The time you may have here Cause Lord only knows Another day is not really guaranteed So every time you hold me Hold me like this is the last time Every time you kiss me Kiss me like you'll never see me again Every time you touch me Touch me like this is the last time Promise that you'll love me Love me like you'll never see me again Now this seems comfy Stand up and Urchin For the better part of me I hang my head from sorrow So much State of humanity Wearing our shoulders Gotta find Strength in me Cause I am Superwoman Yes I am Yes she is Still when I'm a mess Still put on a vest Well then that's so much less Oh yes I'm a superwoman That's right, this is for All the mothers fighting Better days to come All my women, all my women Sitting here trying To come home before the sun All my sisters Say yes I will Yes I can Cause I am Superwoman Yes I am Yes she is Still put on a vest Well then that's so much less Oh yes I'm a superwoman When I'm breaking down And I can't be found Cause I start to get weak Cause no one Holds me underneath this coat Can't fight Superwoman Yes I am Yes she is Still put on a vest Well then that's so much less Oh yes I'm a superwoman Yes she is Oh let me Superwoman Yes she is Still put on a vest See me when I'm a mess I'm still a woman That's right, yes I am And I'm a superwoman Yes you are Yes I am Yes she is Yes I am Yes you are And everybody know the story Of David and Goliath But this is bigger than triumph This is for the warrior This is for you and I This is for euphoria Give me a piece of mind God is recording us Won't you look in the sky Tell him that you got the behavior Your neighbor Even when stability's Never in your favor Fly with the turbulence Only last a minute Land on your dreams And recognize she live it Run through the valley And peaks with bare feet Run through the flames There's more passion for me I blast testimony Just so the world can see I got the wounds on me You're watching me lick them clean I know, I know My pride, my goals My highs, my lows I know, I know It's mind control I know I can prosper No imposter Prosecute my posture I stand up and I stand by it I am a freedom fighter The name that history wrote And even through disaster Eye of the tiger for hope I'm trying to find my way back There's no day off for heroes And even when I'm tired Go is the only word And the night is taking over And the moonlight gets exposure And the players have been chosen And it seems like fate has spoken When it seems your faith is broken By the second losing focus Ain't no way to get up Get up, get up, get up Unless you're more for it But they wonder how Go on, go on But they wonder how Go on, go on I simply say it's on again It's on again The world won't think it's on again It's on again I am a lonely hero Trying to fight my battles Life likes to blow the cold wind Sometimes it freezes my shadow In the midst of all this darkness I sacrifice my ego There ain't no room for selfish We do it for the pain The night is taking over And the moonlight gets exposure And the players have been chosen And it seems like fate has spoken When it seems your faith is broken By the second losing focus Ain't no way to get up Get up, get up, get up Unless you're more for it But they wonder how Go on, go on But they wonder how Go on, go on I simply say it's on again It's on again The world won't think it's on again It's on again They say the birth don't stop Cause they don't stop And everybody here trying to get on top Everybody from the birth down to the block Gotta hold on tight and don't let go, let go So you think you hot? Gotta grind hard, give it all you got You can have it, you can have none I see that a lot in the ghetto, ghetto Go on, go on But they wonder how Go on, go on I simply say it's on again It's on again The world don't stop, it's on again It's on again I keep on falling In and out I'll be back Hey, yo, Shorty, what's up? You looking good today So you gonna give me some time or what? What you talking about, Shorty? What you know about a woman's worth? You could buy me diamonds You could buy me pearls Take me on a cruise around the world Baby, you know I'm worth it In a lit by candles Burn my bubble bed Love tenderly to last, last Baby, you know I'm worth it Wanna please, wanna keep Wanna treat your woman right Not just dope, but a show That you know she's worth your time You will lose if you choose to refuse To put her first She will if she can Find a man who knows her worth Cause a real man knows a real woman When he sees her And a real woman knows a real man And prays to please her And a real woman knows a real man Always comes first And a real man just can't deny A woman's worth If you treat me fairly I'll give you all my goods Treat you like a real woman should Baby, I know you're worth it If you never play me Promise not to bluff I'll hold you down when it gets rough Baby, I know you're worth it She walks a mile Makes you smile all the while being true Don't take for granted the passions That she has for you You will lose if you choose to refuse To put her first She will if she can Find a man who knows her worth Cause a real man knows a real woman When he sees her And a real woman knows a real man And prays to please her And a real woman knows a real man Always comes first And a real man just can't deny A woman's worth No need to read between the lines Spell it out for you Just hear this song cause you can't go wrong When you're valued Sing it Cause a real man knows a real woman When he sees her And a real woman knows a real man And prays to please her And a real woman knows a real man Always comes first And a real man just can't deny A woman's worth
