Insomnia Lyrics By Jill Scott

It is 4 a.m.
I'm waiting in our bed alone,
Dreaming of your embrace
Wishing you would come back home

But you don't call,
And you don't come,
And you don't say,
That you miss me
And you don't stop
To say hi
On your way by
I'm feeling crazy

It is 5 a.m.
And I'm waiting by the phone again
This is not how it's 'sposed to be
You're 'sposed to be here with me

But you're go'n now
You're just go'n now
You don't even think about the way I feel
You're just go'n now
You're just go'n now
When I know you should be right here

It's 6 o'clock in the morning
And I'm so tired of yawning
I am miserable and feeling blue
Cause all I really want is you

But you don't call,
And you don't come,
And you don't say,
That you miss me

And you don't stop
To say hi
On your way by
I'm feeling crazy

It's 7 o'clock in the a.m.
In 15 minutes this alarm will be ringing
At work,no one will feel my pain
It's a shame the way this whole thing changed

But you're go'n now
You're just go'n now
You don't think about the way I feel
You're just go'n now
You're just go'n now
When you know that you should be right here

But you don't call,
And you don't come,
And you don't say,
That you miss me
No,no,no,no
And you don't stop
To say hi
On your way by
This is crazy

Brrring...
Time to wake up,
And put on my strong face
And hope that no one will know

Celibacy Blues Lyrics By Jill Scott

This here celibacy thing
Lawd,just got something over me
Like an addict,I could really use a thing
You know what I'm talking about
Yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah

It's been hard to sleep at night
I'm ying ying ying ying it
Scratching it right
I get some new batteries almost every night
Lawd,this here celibacy thing

The stresses of this world
You know how they come down on a girl
I'm trying to clear my mind
But all I seem to find
Is this gangsta,gangsta,type of need

People say mind over matter
But,I don't mind what they say
And it don't matter
This here celibacy thing
Is working on me...

The Way Lyrics By Jill Scott

Woke up this morning with a smile on my face
Jumped out of bed, took a shower, dressed, cleaned up my place
Made me some breakfast, toast, 2 scrambled eggs, grits
Grabbed my keys, grabbed my purse, grabbed my jacket
Off to work, beaming all the way down 3rd

Is it the way you love me baby?
Is it the way you love me baby?
(Yeah)

Four thirty, can't wait to get home
Nah, girl I got somethang else to do
(Damn Jill, don't be frontin' on your girls for real)
Go 'head, really get your groove on
Cause tonight my man's coming through
(Oh word)
We gonna have to connect some other time
As much as I like to shake my thang on the dance floor
I got another nasty, freaky just right way in mind
Tonight I'm gonna beat the high score

Is it the way you love me baby?
(Yeah)
Is it the way you love me baby?
(Baby)
Is it the way you love me baby?
(Is it, is it the way)
Is it the way you love me baby?

I'm Not Afraid Lyrics By Jill Scott

I'm not afraid to be your lady
I'm not afraid to be your whore
I'm not afraid to be your future
I'm not afraid to be your soil
In which you plant your seed
Flowers, they sprout for me
My fragrance in the breeze
You must nurture me please
I'm not afraid to be your baby
I'm not afraid to be your strength
I'm not afraid to be open wide
I'm not afraid to be glutinous
The essence of glue
I will stick to you
Through earthquakes and moods
If ever one thing was true
I'm not afraid to wind it, wind it
I'm not afraid to keep your pace
I'm not afraid to create my queendom
I'm not afraid to take my place
I'm not afraid

All I Lyrics By Jill Scott

You like
Don't be scared
You never saw me like this before huh?

It's been nice,but now it's time
To show love what we made of

No time for games,no rules just play
Hope you want me in the same way

Slowly Surely Lyrics By Jill Scott

Slowly surely,
I 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 i should go
So
Slowly surely
I walk away from
self-serving
undeserving
constantly hurting me love
deserting me love
you said, I said, we said
but

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

Slowly surely
I 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 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 walk away from
I walk away from
Slowly surely
I walk away from love
Oh
slowlyy, surely one step at a time
but surely
I will pass the old love aside
and love me
slowly,
surely I walk away from
slowly surely I walk away from desperating love
caught up in the maze love
crazy crazy craze of love
slowly surely, I walk away from [repeat 5 times]
Slooooooowly Suuuuuuurely, slowly surely

Bedda At Home Lyrics By Jill Scott

[Verse:]
You're that kind
That turns my head and makes me look
Whoa whoa whoa uh uh uh...uh
You're the kind
That makes me pull single dollars
Out my pocket book, ooh baby
You're sexiness in my restitute makes me
Wanna cook my favorite recipe
And place it on your table, baby

But, I got something better at home
Ooh whoo oo woo woo

And curls my toes, woo woo woo baby ow
He's the kind that loves my mind and feeds my soul
And I love it baby

Makes the hardest things
The simplest and I look but don't touch

Try Lyrics By Jill Scott

[Chorus]
If you want it to happen baybay
Hold fast and believe
You can make it happen baybay
You can be where u pleaze
All you gotta do is try
Then try once again
Then try a few more times
Then try after then

When I was a little girl
Raised on N. Philly streets
I'd hear my people say
Ghetto'z all they'd be
But my mommy would hold me
Quietly give me peace
She'd look me in my eyes and she'd say to me

[Chorus]

As a teenager I dreamed to see the world
But how could I do this me a poor black girl
And just when my will was lost
And all hope seemed set free
I'd remember my mama's face and her tellin' me

[Chorus]

Try try try
Try try try
Try try try
Try and try again [repeat]

Now as a grown woman I still stumble and fall
But wit a lot of faith and the same amount of effort
I can withstand it all
I dun see some thangs now and been a few places
I'm now enjoyin' the beautiful world and the many new faces

I say?

[Chorus]

If you want it to happen bay bay [6x]

Love Rain Lyrics By Jill Scott

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, Sonya, heaven, 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.

It's Love Lyrics By Jill Scott

They say I'm crazy the way you got me open, baby ooh

They say I'm losin' it cause I can't seem to keep my grip, baby ooh

Rightness Lyrics By Jill Scott

(feat. Mike Phillips)

When I write the rightness,tightness
It just flows and flows
Pull it from my left side,right brain
Grab it from my neck,my toes
I feel the music sink into me
Go through me,move me,move me
It's a pleasure to be live and thinkin'
It's a pleasure to be in this zone

[Chorus:]
I just let it go
Don't stop this feeling
Chop this feeling
I just let it go
Don't stop this feeling
Chop,chop,no

[Repeat x2]

When I sing the rightness,tightness
It just goes and goes
Pull it from my people's legacy
Way down in my soul
I let the spirit move right to me
Come through me,move me,whoa
it's a
pleasue to be
It's a pleasure to be vocalizing
It's a pleasure to sing this song

[Chorus]

Music is my life
Takes away the strife
Of day to day sorrow and pain
Music is my life
Takes away the strife
And helps me breathe again

[Repeat x2]

[Chorus]

[Mike Phillips solo to end of song]

Can't Explain (42nd Street Happenstance) Lyrics By Jill Scott

I'm truly sorry baby for what I did to you
While you were busy loving me, I was busy too
I played you dirty boy, did some things I shouldn't do
While you were only trying to treat me food
I was playing... damn

I can't even begin to explain
I'm truly sorry boy
Believe me I had my turn
The next time love came along yeah it was me who burned.
Sad and desperate I cried wondering why ask God why
He would do this to me so damn easy
Well karmas real and now I really do understand
What you give is what you get, universal plan
Paid my price and looked at my life
And finally I'm loving somebody righteously
And
What goes around comes around really do
Really does come back around
And I'm sorry for what I didn't to you
You didn't deserve what I gave you but I gave it to you
I hope your okay
I hope your loving

Well baby just because you lived and lost don't mean stop loving
If you have a nightmare, do you stop dreaming?
Don't give up on love because what I did to you
I hope your okay
I really do.

Rasool Lyrics By Jill Scott

His name was Rasool
Carmel completed boy from the 22
Rough on the outside
But on the inside he was cool
Rasool was a king
But also a fool
Back on the block again with the same crew
Tariq from the west side
Little John form the avenue
Always seen um bout a quarter to two
Shaking hands with everybody
But at the same time sharing the blues
And oh how he passed it on
Shaking hands till what was in his pockets was gone
He'd be outside in the cold with his bubble goose on
But inside
I knew he wasn't warm
Around 10:30 on that dreary night
His bowaz said they were hungry they were hungry
Wanted to get a bite
But they didn't send a runner
Rasool knew it wasn't right
But he stayed anyway to get the chain he liked
And oh how the shots rang in the streets
Hitting everybody in the surrounding vicinity
Children of the children
One young father to be
And Rasool lay dead in my north Philly Street
At fifteen years old
It was the first death I'd seen
But the game ain't designed for no kind of winning
And oh this is a friend of Rasool
Telling you to think about what you do and who you call your crew
The very choices you make
May make a Rasool out of you
Now you don't want that do you?

Golden Lyrics By Jill Scott

[Intro:]
Heyyy, Ohh, Heyyy, Yeah, Ohh, Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeahhhh

[Verse 1]
I'm taking my freedom,
Pulling it off the shelf,
Putting it on my chain,
Wear it around my neck,
I'm taking my freedom,
Putting it in my car,
Wherever I choose to go,
It will take me far,

[Chorus]
I'm livin' my life like it's golden
Livin' my life like it's golden, [X3]
Livin' my life like it's golden, golden,
Livin' my life like it's golden, [X4]
Livin' my life like it's golden, golden,

[Verse 2]
I'm taking my own freedom
Putting it in my song,
Singing loud and strong,
Grooving all day long,
I'm taking my freedom,
Putting it in my stroll,
I'll be high-steppin' y'all,
Letting the joy unfold,

[Chorus]

I'm holding on to my freedom,
Can't take it from me,
I was born into it,
It comes naturally,
I'm strumming my own freedom,
Playing the god in me,
Representing his glory,
Hope he's proud of me,

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
I'm living my life like its golden, golden, golden, golden, golden, golden, [X2]

[Chorus]

[Jill Scott:]
Livin' my life like it's golden,
It really matters to me, Ohhh

[Bridge X5]

Wanna Be Loved Lyrics By Jill Scott

Mmmm,
Don't,don't,don't,don't,
Don't,(don't,don't) don't,don't,don't,
(don't don't)
It's bad,It's bad
Sometimes s**t is bad... (don't)
Look,

Don't feel no pity for me
Cause I'm going through a couple things,
Life means change,
That's the way it goes,goes
All my life I had a constant burning
A strong deep,desire
An aching ambiguous,yearning,yearning,
yearning

For something better
For something bigger
For something wider
For something higher
And lots of regrets
Cause I ain't seem to found it yet
I've been searching around the world
Never knowing what to expect
I get sad sometimes
Yes I be mad sometimes
Cause I'm out here on the grind
Making mine
And I still can't seem to find
What I've been looking for
Opened so many doors
For real,yo
I just wanna be loved...

[Chorus:]
I just wanna be loved
Like everybody else does
I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved [Repeat x4]
I just wanna be loved

[Chorus]

Gettin' In The Way Lyrics By Jill Scott

You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin
You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin
You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin
You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin

Sister girl
I know you don't understand
But you goin have to understand he's my man now
What you had is gone
I think it's sweet
It's stronger than any lie you can tell on me
He knows my heart and that's the part
Yo roots are dug up
So you might as well give up
I see your intentions
You can't handle the truth
He let you go a long time ago
Now it's time to turn him loose

You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin
You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin
You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin
You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin

But I'm bout to take my earrings off get me some vasaline

Chill and I mean it

You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin
You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin
You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin

You're gettin the way of what I'm feelin

A Long Walk Lyrics By Jill Scott

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

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

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

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

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

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

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
Come on, Come on

My Petition Lyrics By Jill Scott

You say you mean good for me
But you don't do it
You say you have a plan but you just don't go thru with it
You say you know the way to go
And I should follow
But all of your empty promises
Leave me hollow

And oh
How do I trust you
How do I love you
When you
Lie to me repeatedly
And oh
How do I have faith, in you
When you just don't come thru
Like you say you could

Oh, say can you see [2x]

You say that I'm wrong for
Stating my opinion to you
You say that I'm wrong and there'll be quiet consequences too
But I know my rights babe
There'll be no law abridging
The freedom of my speech
Or the right for me to petition for a remedy of grievances

And I want to trust you
I want to love yeah
But you lie to me repeatedly
And oh I want to have faith in you
But you just don't come thru
Like you said you could
Oh say can you see
Hmmm

I want fresh fruit, clean water,
Air that I don't see
I want the feeling of being safe on my streets
I want my children to be smarter than me
I want, I want to feel
I want to feel, I want to feel free
For real ya'll
I'm just telling you so you know
I want to, I want to have faith in you
I really do but you keep lying to me
It hurts
I believe, I believe you owe it me
Give it to me like you said you would
Hmmm
Oh say can you see
Hmmm
Oh say can you see
Oohh say can you see
Hmmm
By the dawn's early light

Honey Molasses Lyrics By Jill Scott

Honey molasses, ebony majesty
Chocolate brown shuga, sweet epiphany
I waited for your call but you chooz not to call me
I wonder what happened
Were you inside a safe space and too I wondered
Were you thinking about me and if you were
Why was I feeling so lonely
By the phone, alone to the bone
Although the night before you were in my home my body my dome
In a circle of passion we Paris Italy Japan Africa Rome
We made music, we trombone
It was magic the way it happened
Pure electricity
I felt so excited and afraid at the same time
I don 't know whether to sing or to rhyme
Call me
Honey molasses, ebony majesty
Chocolate brown shuga, sweet epiphany

Not Like Crazy Lyrics By Jill Scott

When we first met
I was surprised to get
That feeling,
That feeling
The kind that don't wash away with soap
So sweet to me,
Oohh
The kind of feeling I need
To get me through the darkest days
For you I prayed

[Chorus]
What you do is crazy babe
Not like you belong in an asylum
Crazy babe,
Like the sun in the morning
And the moon at night
Like the rain falling from the sky
Like the trees growing from the ground
I'm astounded babe
By your love for me
And your touching me
And your trust in me
Like you do whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo

Even now I still feel that feeling
Although we've grown
We're still on the same side
Of the proverbial road
Heading in the same direction
I'm so glad to know
With you I spend my time

[Chorus]

[Break]

[Repeat Chorus 3x]

Crazy baby

Do You Remember Lyrics By Jill Scott

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

Oh honey
Why you got to be so mean?
Don't you
(Don't you remember me?)
Oh baby, baby
You and me, you and me, you and me
We build sandcastles in the Serengeti
(Don't you remember me)
You splashed my face with Nile water
Daughter of Diaspora
You named me, claimed me

Do you remember me?
(Do you remember me?)
Do you remember me?
(Oh)
Do you remember me?
(Me)
Do you remember me?

Remember playing pinball right on 23rd street
(K-I-N-G)
I was there, I remember
When you got your first pair of sneaks
(Oh the are phat!)
Mmm Converse I think

(Do you)
I remember you swore you were so big and bad
You walked around like your mmm didn't stink
(You can't beat everybody)
But I was there always been there
I remember that it did, ooh it did

I remember you lovin' me
It was so beautiful
(Magical, wonderful)
I remember loving you
So good, so good, so good

[1] - Do you remember me?

[Repeat 1 till end in background]

I mean, for real
Don't you remember those days
Way back when we spoke K Swahili
It was you and me
See, remember playing hide and go freak
I was that one you were born to seek
And I'm still here

Getting down, getting down
Getting down, getting down
Getting down, getting down, for you

Getting down, getting down
Getting down, getting down
Getting down, getting down, for you

Yeah

Show Me Lyrics By Jill Scott

If I asked you to trust me on all things,
Could you do it?
If I needed you to map your position,
Would you try it?
Your constantly talking about how much you love me, want me, need me, you told me stop talking.
No more conversation necessary.

Show me, show me, show me, show me, show me, show me, show me, show me, show me.
Show me, show me, show me, show me, show me.
If I needed you to replenish my faith in brothers,
Could you do it?
If I needed you to be, cool with my strength,
Could you do it?
Your constantly talking about how much you love me, want me, need me, you told me stop talking.
No more conversation necessary.

Show me, show me, show me, show me, show me, show me, show me, show me, show me.
Show me, show me, show me, show me, show me.

Your word is love but you push me away, and won't say why.
You show me your exterior, I need to see your interior, I need to be absolutely clear wit cha, if we are to ever stand a chance.
It's the last dance, don't you see, show me the warrior you're born to be.

Warrior keep fightin, I know you're there.
Keep fightin, warrior I know you're there.
[Repeat until end]

Talk To Me Lyrics By Jill Scott

Here you go jacket down
Timbs off
Remote control
And there you go
Off into outer space
Distant from me
Where do you go
Your eyes are closed
I'd like to know
I stop
Sit next to you because you seem so blue and pray nothings wrong
Baby I don't want to see us burn down and go up in smoke
No, no, no, no, no

Talk to me, break it down, spell it out, spell it out for me
Talk to me, break it down, spell it out, spell it out for me

But when I push
Begins the riff
You take off and there I sit
Alone feeling cold
I become antagonist loud and wrong
Words are thrown
I bitch you moan
So I try another tactic
Ohh, ohhhh, oh

Close your eyes
Relax your mind
Cool down
Just recline
We've got the time
To let it go
Just unwind
I'll...cool baby
I'll be quiet
If you like
I'll put on your favorite song
Sounds nice
Thug passion on ice?
Or a glass of Merlot?
I'll roll it up
If you want
I won't front
I just need to know
What you know

Talk to me, break it down, spell it out for me baby
Talk to me, break it down, spell it out for me

Dee da da Be bim bim Bum bum bum di di bum didi dow...(continues scatting)

Baby I'm getting so frustrated
Aggravated
Because it seems that you're hiding something from me
And that ain't the way I swing
I'm loving you
But I get confused
And what makes me fear
When your personality is unclear
I make things up in my mind
You're right next to me
But sometimes I feel like you walk away
And you just don't have a thing to say
But I fear for you
So tell me what cha
Tell me what cha goin through

Love Rain (remix) Lyrics By Jill Scott

(feat. Mos Def)

[Jill Scott]
Love rain down on me, on me, down on me
Love rain down on me, on me, down on me
Love rain down on me, on me, down on me

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 physically give me each and every one
I felt like cayenne pepper, red, hot, spicy
I felt dizzy and so near heaven and miles between my thighs
Better than love, we made delicious
He me had, had me he
He had 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-clarivoyant 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
[Repeat 1 in background]
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
Love rain down on me, on me, down on me

[Mos Def]
I stretched my arms towards the sky like blades of tall grass
The sun beat between my shoulders like carnival drums
I sat still in hopes that it would help my wings grow
So then I could 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 ultraviolet 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 the beautiful, distress of mathematics."
I said, "For you, I would peel open the clouds like new fruit
And give you lightning and thunder as a dowry
I would make the sky shed all of it's stars like rain
And I would clasp the constellations across your waist
And I would make the heavens your cape
And they would be pleased to cover you
They would be pleased to cover you
May I please, cover you, please"

Nothing (interlude) Lyrics By Jill Scott

I gotta admit sometimes I feel week for loving you the way I do
It's beyond me
I can't control it or force it to be, you know, what I want it to be
I think about you so much when I'm with you and when I'm not
It's deep, the way, just looking in your eyes just changes my whole perspective
Nothing is more beautiful than loving you, holding you being next to you
Kissing your lips taking my time with you
Nothing is more beautiful than loving you Holding you being next to you
Moving my hips
Moving in time with you
Put of all the things in the world, god gave us to each other
It's amazing
You are the king I always imagined
This is the best time of my life.

Brotha Lyrics By Jill Scott

So many times you tried to cut we

Hate On Me Lyrics By Jill Scott

If I could give you the world
On a silver platter
Would even matter
You'd still be mad at me
If I can find in all this
A dozen roses
Which I would give to you
You'd still be miserable
In reality
I'm gon be who I be
And I don't feel no faults
For all the lies that you bought
You can try as you may
Break me down when I say

That it ain't up to you
Gon on do what you do

[Chorus:]
Hate on me hater
Now or Later
Cause I'm gonna do me
You'll be made baby

(Go head and hate)
Go head and hate on me hater
I'm not afraid of
What I got I paid for
You can hate on me...

Ooh if I gave you peaches
Out of my on garden
And I made you a peach cobbler
Would you slap me out?
Wonder if I gave you diamonds
Out of my on womb
Would you feel the love in that
Or ask why not the moon
If I gave you sanity
For the whole of humanity
Had all the solutions for the pain and pollution
No Matter Where I live
Despite the things I give
You'll always be this way
So go ahead and ...

[Chorus x2]

You Cannot...
Hate On me
Cause my mind is free
Feel my destiny
So Shall it Be
[Repeat x2]
[Chorus]

The Fact Is (i Need You) Lyrics By Jill Scott

I can pay my own light bill baby
Pump my own gas in my own car
I can buy my own shoe collection
I've been blessed thus far
I can kill the spider above my bed
Although it's hard because I'm scared
I can even stain and polyurethane
But some things just don't change
I need you yeah
Sometimes so hard to say oh
I need you
Some things remain
I could buy my own groceries baby
Get my hair tight, my nails right
I can floss my own bling bling
Write the words to the songs I sing
I can even raise the child we'll make
Make sure he's loved and knows what God gave us
I can teach him how to walk and stand
But he needs you to help him be a man
We need you
So hard to say
We need you
Some things don't change
I could be congresswoman
Or a garbage woman or
Police officer, or a carpenter
I could be a doctor and a lawyer and a mother and a good girl
God what you've done to me
Kind of lover I could be
I could be a computer analyst, the Queen with the nappy hair raising her fist
Or I could be much more and a myriad of this
Hot as the summer, sweet as the first kiss
And even though I can do all these things
I need you
And even though I can do all these things
We need you
We need you
We need you
And even though I can do all these things by my damn self
I need you
I do, I do, I do, I do
And even though I can do all these things
I need you
We need you
We do
We need you yeah
We need you

How It Make You Feel Lyrics By Jill Scott

[Chorus:]
Tell me how you'd feel
If I was,If I was go'n,
Tell me how you'd feel?
Tell me how you'd feel
If I was,If I was go'n,
Tell me how you'd feel?
What if I was go'n forever?
No more chocolate kisses,
No nappy dugout ever,
No mamma,no daughter,no sister,no
No sister friends
Tell me my brother,
What would become of you then?
What if,poof,every black female in the world
disappeared?
Your man-child left unattended
Lost without no one behind the steering wheel
Tell me,hmm mmm,
C'mon,how would that make you feel
C'mon,c'mon,help a sister say

[Chorus]

Your beautiful brown would be forever go'n
With no more cocoa wombs to carry your
brown on
You right there,would be the last of your kind
Can you feel this song? How does that
affect your mind?
Cause if there was no me,there'd be no you
Ooo can you feel me,is this song coming
through
What if,poof,every
black female
in the world
disappeared?
11
That's the science in it,
but it's so much more intense
Reach into your soul for the answer
Reach wherever you need to,to find it

[Chorus]

[Rap:]
Say you be tripping,
Say you pimping it,
Talking 'bout how you "Da Man"
What you are is something different
By-product of when "Massa"ruled your life
Spreading babies everywhere
Couldn't think,couldn't care
But you can now
You can,you can
C'mon and man up
Damn it,Tell me how you'd feel?
No mamma,no daughter

[Chorus]

[Repeat w/ adlibs until fade:]

Imagination Lyrics By Jill Scott

Shining all bright and baby I just don't know how...

[Chorus]

This is crazy magic wooper fantastic chemistry...

[Repeat chorus]

Whatever Lyrics By Jill Scott

You pulled some tricks out your sleeve last night
Everything I fantasize about
You had me climbing up a wall
How many ways was God called
You represented in the fashion of the truly gifted
You put it down last night
Knocked me out then had me dreaming bout waking up, alright
Do you want some money baby?
How about some chicken wings?
Do you want some fish and grits?
I'll hurry and go get it
Whatever
We made a groove last night
A poignant rocking forth and back alright
Anything I can do for you?
Just ask sometimes you wont have to
I'll be happy just to make you happy
And that's true
Oh
We made powerful
Love last night
Never knew passion could taste so sweet alright
I made a vow to you
Everything I do for you is a joy and a gift
You got my whole life lifted

Epiphany Lyrics By Jill Scott

Watching,
Watching as he took the holder off his shoulder
Fire in his eyes,hands getting bolder
Quiet,quiet
Growing excited
Dug him for his bank account,but really for
his private
Damn about a mindset
Really wasn't into that
Needed me some pleasing,jon looking real fat
Laidback was his foreplay
All that was needed,needed was some of that
Started simple
Massaging on my temple
Pinching on my mountain peaks
That a sisters into
I responded,"Mmmmm."
You like the sound,I like makin'it more
I fell for the rock and shore
Enough,he brought it close so I could really see
Up close he slid between my breast
Sweaty with lust and sweat

Rode Mt.Saint Scott 'til ooooo
Creamy lava landed on my skin and neck
Blended with my all day Chanel scent
This freaking was incredulent,decadent
Flip side,stomach meets sheets
He plows inside as if he's making beats
As if this year's harvest depended on it
Bendin'on it
Back on my back old fashioned is renewed
Red toenail polish on whitewalls
Documenting this freaking,ahhhhh
I must...
Remember...
To thank him...
Later.
No,no,no,
No,no,no
I take charge of ship
Moving with my back and my hips
Like my ancestors did
Speaking the Bantu,Ranga and tonga??
But I've gotta stop all that to make it longer,
But it's too late
I put him to sleep
Curled all up,spasm all in his feet
Feeling all proud like I did something deep
Aint really nothin'it's the way that it be
North Philly sister repin'hard like me
But why do I feel so empty?

Exclusively Lyrics By Jill Scott

Hello, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hello
Hello, hello, hello, hello

Mmm, this morning my man exclusively introduced me
To some good extra lovin'
He was lickin' and suckin' on everything
Just the way he should
This morning's extra lovin' was good
We laid there sweaty, sex funky, happy as we want to be
Lovin' exclusively, my man and me
All nigh,t all morning
So our stomachs were growlin' hungrily
So I jumped up and rushed to the store
In hopes of coming back and getting a little more of
This morning's good extra lovin '
At the market the people were pushing and shoving
Trying to be the next in line, the turn was mine
The new girl at the counter was cute, not as fine as me
Was this some kind of women's intuition, some kind of insecurity
Nah, cause my man is happy at home lovin' me exclusively
So I shook my head, "What's up?"
"Hello," she smiled as she rung me up
Orange juice $3.29, Croissants $4.85
She sniffed, Butter 89
She sniffed, Strawberries $1.50 a pint
She sniffed, and sniffed, and sniffed, and sniffed again
And then replied, "Raheem, right?"
Right!?!

My Love Lyrics By Jill Scott

[Intro:]
Yo,I'm tripping right,
I heard you got married.
You got married?
No I mean,make any
It don't really make any sense
I mean,It's not like I,I didn't think you were
seeing other people or whatever,Imean
I was seeing other people but
You know what this is,
You know what it was,you tsch
I can't say I really understand though
You chose her cause she's sweet as pie
Take what you give,even your life
But baby,are happy without me?
She scrubs your back,washes your clothes
Gives you everything that ask for
But don't you ever want more?
Cause my love

[Chorus:]

My love is deeper
Tighter
Sweeter
Higher
Flyy-er
Didn't you know this,
Or didn't you notice?
(My love,my love)
My love is deeper
Tighter
Sweeter
Higher
Flyy-er
Didn't you know this,
Or didn't you notice?
Mmmm,what we had don't need no words
Deeper than anything you ever heard
I ain't reaching baby,
I know I should be your lady
You say you're happy
You say you're great
But you know and I know you really ain't
You need to come be with me
That's the way it's supposed to be

[Chorus]

Cause ohh,
All I ever do is think about you baby
I hold you in my arms inside my dreams
And I know what I know and what I know is
That no matter where you go
You will always think of me

[Chorus]

[Repeats with adlibs until the end]

Spring Summer Feeling Lyrics By Jill Scott

Feeling the way I do
It's hard to keep focus
One minute staring at the moon
Next into your eyes
And it's no surprise
Ooo that my knees weaken
At the lovely words you're speaking
La la la la
It takes more than diamonds to woo me
La la lala
It takes more than money to groove me
Feeling the way I do
It's hard to keep focus
One minute starin at the moon
Next into your eyes
It's no surprise
That my knees get weaken
From the lovely words you're speaking
Lalalala
It takes more tan diamonds to woo me
Lalalala
It takes more than money to move me
Lalalala
It takes more than ooo material things
Lalala
It takes more than diamond to move me
Lalalala
It takes more than money to groove
Lalalala
It takes more than cars to get me where I need to go
Don't stop the flow

Only You Lyrics By Jill Scott

Ain't go'n be no eyes
To make me turn away
Ain't go'n be no kiss
To make me contemplate
Walking out the door
And never coming back no more
(Ain't go'n,ain't go'n,ain't go'n,ain't go'n,g-g-go'n)

Ain't go'n be no cologne
To make me say goodbye
Ain't go'n be no words
To make me change my mind
Throw away all I know
For something physical
(Ain't go'n,ain't go'n,ain't go'n,ain't go'n,g-g-go'n)

[Chorus:]
Only U
Only U
Only you can make me leave the key and
lock the door
and never come back no muh muh muh, more
Only U
C-c-c come,come

Ain't go'n be no style
To make me change my smile
(Ain't go'n,ain't go'n,ain't go'n,ain't go'n,g-g-go'n)
Ain't go'n be no stroll
To make me lose control

(Ain't go'n,ain't go'n,ain't go'n,ain't go'n,g-g-go'n)
Of my sanity
Oh no,it won't be me.

Only you can make me leave the key and
lock the door

And never come back no muh muh
muh,more
Only you can make me leave the key and
lock the door
And never come back no muh muh
muh,more

[Chorus]

Whenever You're Around Lyrics By Jill Scott

(feat. George Duke)

[Intro:]
Hey
Mmmm hmmm,
Listen to me,listen to me,listen to me,
listen to me
Listen to me,listen to me,listen to me,listen...

I've been talking to this man
He's been saying what I like and
He makes me smile,
When I'm down,so down

He says sweet things in my ear
All the things that I needed to hear
But that's as far as it's gone
I promise,I promise

But I enjoy it,I love it so
Cause it seems like I'm always alone
You're at arms reach
But baby,
Where are you?
Where are you?

Cause I got this fire
Sweet and true
But I'm cold as ice around you

[Chorus:]
Cause I'm lonely
Whenever you're around
Cause I'm lonely
Whenever you're around

[Instrumental Break]

Whoa,whoa,whoa
What happened to the wonderful thing
we had
It seems like you're missing in action
And I'm tired,I'm tired
I'm tired,I'm tired,I'm tired,I'm tired

I don't wanna lose this good life
But I ain't scared
If I'm going to be the only one participating
in this

[Chorus]

I Think It's Better Lyrics By Jill Scott

It's so hard for me to say this
I'm struggling to find the right words
What I've felt is past tense
What I feel you just haven't heard

So, I think it's better that I tell you now
I think it's better that I tell you now

He's so sweet and good, good
I can't let him go

Cross My Mind Lyrics By Jill Scott

I was just thinking about you
Wondering if you wear the same cologne
Smelled good
On you
Had the next boyfriend of mine try the same kind
But it stunk on him though.
You know what they say everything ain't for everybody.
But I tried anyway.
You sure did smell good.

[Chorus:]
You just running gross my mind
[x3]

You had that masculine thing DOWN
Shoulders, back straight never sloping never round
It would turn me on just to see you walk into a room, across the room, out of the room.
You really impressed me.
Eh yeah

[Chorus:]
You just running cross my mind
[x3]

I know if I pick up this phone, write this letter send this two way.
I know I'm gonna say some things, I know you gonna say some things
That we both don't mean to say
Like...how amazing...how amazing...
When you would spread my limbs cross continents
And bababed way over mountains.
Kiss this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this and that.
Show each other where the climax is at.

You just running cross my mind
[x3]
I was just thinking about you, wondering what you doing I mean what you've been up to
I know its wrong feeling this strong let me take a second minute I will think this thing through

I was just thinking about you, wondering what you doing I mean what you've been up to
I know its wrong feeling this strong let me take a second minute I will think this thing through

Remember all the moments for two, how we used to
Oooh yeah
But the reality honestly...you where never good for me and I was never good for you.
I just remember what we used to do....
