Hey Mr. DJ
I heard you dedicate this last one to the lovers
Well make this a good one ‘cause to me it means much more than the others
Me and my baby just agree to disagree
And though we really love each other we gotta know when to let things be so I’ll
Put on my stepping shoes, save this dance for me and you
I had a real good time
But now it’s time to say goodbye
It's the last song
'fore we go home
party's over
once it comes to an end
In the meanwhile
‘fore we move on
let's go once more
and still leave here as friends
Tonight I wanna party
(but) not with just anybody
the night is yours
by invite only
Not one for reminiscing
But right now I can’t resist it
As I recall
how you cured my lonely
and those were the days
ships might sail away
As they leave for different options
things had to change
chapters turn a page
but this story’s never forgotten
So long
Said we’ve been here so long
Though we walked in alone
we still wound up together
So Wrong
Would it be so wrong
If we prayed that this song
Would stay on forever

Shorty I’d like to take your hand
And bring you round the world like a
diplomat visiting foreign lands
And show you how it feels when a queen
dips her toes into foreign sand
Next time you meet up with all your friends
You introduce me as your man
But first I gotta take you up
I know you like life’s finer things
So when we take a hit
Ain’t no seeds just smoke
Get lost inside the haze
Fancy restaurant, leave a tip
Hotel penthouse we close the shades
And I’ll be spanking you
long before you get a chance to misbehave
But first I gotta lift you up
Shorty, there’s levels to this
We makin’ rebel music
Cause once you step into this
You gon be steppin’ to this
Teachers explain to students
Winners refrain from losing
We were designed to be the
irrifuted, undisputed
Certified high, so fly, can’t lie,
Clear blue sky we’ll be droppin’ a payload
Know the flow might blow minds showtime
so good angels hand you a halo
Elevate have ‘em asking where they go
While we master the castles of Greyskull
If it’s cash take the pounds over pesos
All looking bueno
So how could you say no?
Whenever you’re sure
Let’s take this plane and fly
Go somewhere warm
I’ll keep you occupied
Whatever you want
I guarantee you’ll find
And when you want more
I’m more than qualified
Let me take you to the more

This is Africa
(straight up)
ain't no chaser
We gon' take it up higher
Elevator
If you're looking for party
just be patient
This one 'bout to get started any second
And if you’re tryna find the way
Only the lion’s will come this far
Be a Lion for a day
All of the jungle will hear you roar
As the music is jammin’
The rhythm is slammin’
The people are askin’ for
Bam Bam straight up
(Bruk it down)
This is Jamaica
(straight up)
ain't no chaser
Come fi ram up di dance 'n
Bad behavior
Uno wine up ya body 'n
move your waist uh
DJ ramp up di sound 'n
Mash di place up
(BO!)
And if you’re tryna find the way
You’ll find it today, today
When the lions start to play
You won’t be the same again
As the music is jammin’
The rhythm is slammin’
The people are askin’ for
Bam Bam straight up

Black Widow
05:13
|

She rode in like a
thief in the night
No satisfying her appetite
she spun the web that
lasso'd me in
with one conversation
got under my skin
and I guess they don't teach some things in school or
I could have saved myself
but instead
I was defenseless
and she got the best of me, she's a
She's a
Black widow spider
Angel face
Nothing inside her
But empty space
she'll steal your heart and
exit the scene
She's wanted for murder
but I want her for me
Now there's laws of attraction
most folks obey
So I stayed believin' that I'd be safe
but she fired a shot that
came without a warning
was here in the evening
but gone in the morning
and I guess they don't teach these things to fools
cause I couldn't save myself
and I admit, I admit, I played the fool for you
she's such a cold thing
And fallin' in love with a fugitive
is so unfortunate
Cause they never leave witnesses
with all of her sins
I couldn't bring myself to turn her in
and now and then, now and then, think I see her face
but she's gone with out a trace

Baby, you could be, fully auto-matonic
I wouldn’t even know
Cause the way that you respond to me
Lately is so robotic
It’s hardly personal
Maybe it’s a sign of the times (there changin’ and)
People deal in 1’s and 0’s
Leading very opposite lives (as strange as it is)
Even love is virtual
If you put your love on autopilot
I guarantee we won’t survive the fall
if your gonna phone it in don't bother
might as well just save yourself the call
And we’ll be, destined for system failure if we don’t change and make
maintenance our first concern
It’s a simply equation (no computation needed)
what you put in will return
I remember when there were sparks (electricity)
long before emotion was gone (so gone, so gone)
Now it’s like we’re missing some parts (We’ve changed and were)
Barely turning each other on
When it’s not getting better
but it can’t stay the same (no)
Gotta fix all our errors
or be victims of the digital age

Pressure
04:14

I know you feel you've been surrounded
expectations so high
you don't know where to go
but everyone has got their mountains, and
once you start to climb
you'll find
you're not alone
You got a family to take care of
and bills to pay
but tell me who takes care of you?
when what you bring home just ain't enough
But you still make do
while you're looking for a way out
We gon' make it through this
Like there's nothing to it
Hey, they'll be nothing stopping us
cause now
I said now
the world and it's problems
no longer get us down
What we build can’t no one tear it down
Just believe we’ll turn it all around
What we build can’t no one tear it down
Just believe we’ll turn it all around

Love, up to now only got the short end of the stick
Romance I tried my hand, it damn sure made me sick
I tried to call it quits, to save my sanity
but it's too late for me
Even though some things are worth waiting for
I always wanted so much more
Life surely wasn't all that I thought it would be
Truly
Till I met you
You're the one that can turn this cold world upside down
Take away all my fears, erase my every doubt
just a few words from you can turn my life around
See you're the one I need
Then, just when I thought I had this life thing figured out
You came and showed me what it's truly all about
Sat on the sidelines hoping I'd get in the game
Then you called my name
You said
Boy what could you be waiting for?
Time's one thing you just can't ignore
Go forward and know all that you saw in your dreams
can be
but it takes you
You're the one that can turn this cold world upside down
Take away all the fears, erase my every doubt
just a few words from you can turn it all around
You're the one I need

Best is Yet
03:53

I've been a lotta places in my life
where I couldn't always tell my wrong from right
Dropped everything inside a slot machine
and hoped I could hitch a ride with destiny
Punchin' at the moon
cause I ain't really where I wanna be
Hopin' that the next bus'll take me right outta town
So much on the line that if fear ever tries to come for me
I'll stare him in the face and I'll wrestle him to the ground
When you say your penance
don't look back
let your faith keep you on the run
and you won't have any
more regrets
Once you know the best is yet to come
Let's travel on a space ship back in time
unravellin' the mysteries that we find
No gravity can keep us from what's ours
cause everyday we dream we’ll travel amongst the stars
Show me anyone that has made it to where they wanna be
I'll show you 20 more that have tried and have fallen down
They’ve fallen down, They’ve fallen down
So much on the line that if fear ever gets in front of me
I'll stare him in the face and I'll wrestle him to the ground
Nothing you could say is at loud as the voice inside of me
Had my share of doubts when nobody else was around
No one’s around, No one’s around
So much on the line that if fear ever tries to gun for me
I'll find him where he lives and I'll bury/put him into the ground
