The End Is The Beginning

My thoughts are dark and empty I'm not crying out loud Don't know what am I asking for If an answer can be found The loneliness is killing Though there's someone in my bed There's only so much living That I fear I could be dead But then standing at my window when The night seems like it's won And everything seems brighter With the sign of the sun And I said Oh my God, it's good to be alive Oh my God, it's good to be alive I know one thing for sure is that I'll die But today, yeah, it's good to be alive Lying in my bedroom My eyes are wide awake My body's tired and given up Oh, for heaven's sake Won't you please send me a little sleep To ease my worried mind I'm losing rationality That I won't know how to find But then standing at my window when The night seems like it's won And everything seems brighter With the sign of the sun And I said Oh my God, it's good to be alive Oh my God,...

I’m coming home I’m coming home Tell the World I’m coming home Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday I know my kingdom awaits and they’ve forgiven my mistakes I’m coming home, I’m coming home Tell the World that I’m coming Back where I belong, yeah I never felt so strong (I’m back baby) I feel like there’s nothing that I can’t try And if you with me put your hands high (put your hands high) If you ever lost a light before, this ones for you And you, the dreams are for you I hear “The Tears of a Clown” I hate that song I feel like they talking to me when it comes on Another day another Dawn Another Keisha, nice to meet ya, get the math I’m gone What am I ‘posed to do when the club lights come on Its easy to be Puff, its harder to be Sean What if the twins ask why I aint marry their mom (why, damn!) How do I respond? What if my son stares with a face like my own And says he wants to be like me when he’s grown Sh-t! But I aint finished growing Anot...

Comme si je n'existais pas, Elle est passee a cote de moi, Sans un regard, reine de Saba. J'ai dit Aicha, prends, tout est pour toi. Voici des perles, des bijoux, Aussi l'or autour de ton cou, Les fruits bien murs au gout de miel, Ma vie, Aicha, si tu m'aimes. J'irai a ton souffle nous mene Dans les pays d'ivoire et d'ebene. J'effacerai tes larmes, tes peines. Rien n'est trop beau pour une si belle. Ooh! Aicha, Aicha, ecoute-moi. Aicha, Aicha, t'en vas pas. Aicha, Aicha, regarde-moi. Aicha, Aicha, reponds-moi. Je dirai les mots des poemes. Je jouerai les musiques do ciel. Je prendrai les rayons do soleil Pour eclairer tes yeux de reine. Ooh! Aicha, Aicha, ecoute-moi. Aicha, Aicha, t'en vas pas. Elle a dit, " Garde tes tresors. Moi, je veux mieux que tout ca, Des barreaux sont des barreaux, meme en or. Je veux les memes droits que toi Et do respect pour chaque jour. Moi, je ne veux que de l'amour. ...

A lonely mother gazing out of her window  staring at a son that she just can't touch. If at any time he's in a jam she'll be by his side,  but he doesn't realize he hurts her so much. But all the praying just ain't helping at all,  'cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble. So, he goes out and he makes his money the best way he know how, another body laying cold in the gutter. Listen to me. Don't go chasing waterfalls. Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to. I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all,  but I think you're moving too fast. Little precious has a nat'ral obsession for temptation,  but he just can't see. She give him loving that his body can't handle,  but all he can say is, "Baby, it's good to me." One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror,  but he doesn't recognize his own face. His health is fading and he doesn't k...
