If words were flowers
I’d give them all to you They carry power
So proud and beautiful

Hopeful
Now in this present darkness
All ears just listen a mass has formed to cure the common condition
Though black as a cloud in a war ridden sky
The lights will shine through till this bull shit blow by
And the best of me won’t settle for less
I’m convinced and once I’m convinced then I’ll manifest
A catalog of parables that’s broke down in a tongue
That’s been corrupted no substance to be hidden from
Now it’s erupted brought forth from a dream
A stream underwater without an option to sing
Not to pacify you but homie to truly change
When you stare at the heavens you’ll see the stars have rearranged so be
Hopeful
We’re in the middle of a monotonous storm
Made from messed up music motivated I mourn melodic melody that moves and mediates
Evolution of change to pulsate the mind state
It’s not impossible for our mission to succeed
You ask are we chosen I’ll say indeed
We’ve studied and trained for a warrior mind frame
The counsel has gathered thicker than soap is lathered
Don’t fret cause it ain’t over yet but by the time it is your cries will turn into cheers
No fears just hold on tight
Cause the darkness will be over by the end of the fight
With doubt and fear jealousy
All the things that cause casualty
To your soul let it go
Most of all be hopeful
Hopeful

Can't Hide It
03:19
|

If I don't smile when you’re walking by
It's because I can't live a lie
Spent so much time being blue
Just holding my head thinking of you
And I can't hide it
It’s true
I only want you
Let’s make it right now
Just us two
Cause I only want you
If I don’t go where you want me to
It's because I can barely move
From bending down down on my knees
Begging you just to take me please
And I can't hide it
It’s true
I only want you
Let’s make it right now
Just us two
Cause I only want you
You can see it in my face
Don’t walk away
When you leave I break down
You're more than words what can I say?
Except that I need you around
And I can't hide it
It’s true
I only want you
Let’s make it right now
Just us two
Cause I only want you

With You

It's no fun here when you're alone
There's no sun here nothing has grown
Where do we go to get away?
How do we know when to stay?
Soon as we find a space I want to celebrate
If we could leave today
I would just sail away
With You
The sun shines bright
With you
You are my light
With you
I’m never alone
With you
I’m already home
It’s so fun here who would've known
Were over run here the flowers have grown
It's beautiful today
Let's go find a way
Soon as we find a space I want to celebrate
If we could leave today
I would just sail away With you
The sun shines bright
With you
You are my light
With you
I’m never alone
With you
I’m already home

I've heard it all before
There’s nothing left to do
But see
I’m down to explore so let’s
Walk through a fantasy
As long as I’m with you
Then I love it yeah
Just enough room for two
Then I love it yeah
Talking ‘bout magic
Can’t believe it’s true
Talking ‘bout real magic
It’s made between me and you
Hurry to the door
Open up let me see yeah
It’s not the alcohol you
Intoxicate me
As long as it’s room for two
Then I love it yeah
Just enough for me and you
Then I love it yeah
Talking ‘bout magic
Can't believe it's true
Talking ‘bout real magic
It's made between me and you

Where's The Love
03:14
|

What if one day love couldn’t be found
You search the highest mountain
Even looked underground you
Couldn't quite prove it as a natural fact
It just up and vanished
With no sign of coming back
Where is the love
And what of lost love
It's just a point of view
A world covered in darkness
Despair and disease too
The science of pathology couldn’t
Even explain the effects to our
The feeling of disdain
An insatiable hunger no one or nothing
Could fill a deep bottomless hole
A real raw deal
It’s only because of love that I’m
Obliged to tell, that if we ever lost it
This would be a living hell
Where is the love
What if the lost of
Made the earthquake
The moon pull the tides
For all loves sake
It's only because of love I feel I should say
That if I ever lost it
I wouldn't care anyway

Trying to understand just what it takes
To be the only
Man
But my first mistake
Was trying to erase but I can’t take his place there was love that you gave
That I won’t know but you're loving
Me now and I won't go
I know loneliness but I’m gone
Try my best
To be all that you need and a
Good friend and you're all that I need babe and then some
I’m the one
Baby I’m the one
Baby I’m the one you need
Now that we're alone how can I prove that i'll be here for all time cause
I can't lose you
I know I made mistakes and those
Can't be erased
There was love that you gave that
I won't know
But you're loving me know and I won't go be
I know loneliness but I’m gone try my best to all that you need and a good friend and you're all that I need babe and then some
I’m the one
Baby I’m the one
Baby I’m the one you need

So Low
03:17
|

How did I get so low
I never should have let you DOWN
Just like the time before
Now you won't come around
I’m drowning inside
No place now to hide
I have to decide
My homies say they got the key
And its gonna pick me up before I’m a casualty
I hit the bar
To fill my cup
I take it to the head
Wish I was in bed
With my baby instead
I get so so high so low
I can touch the sky with no try
Why do I get down just
To get high
I’m wide open on the 10 touch
Fire and you'll get BURNED
You don’t drown by falling in
But you will if you stay submerged
I’m hitting the gas Can't live in the past
How long will this last?
Pull up in a cloud of smoke
I see love in the neon lights
If you’re here with your
Friends I don't know but I just might Take another to the head
WISH I was in bed with my baby instead.
I get so-so high so low
I can touch the sky with no try why
Do I get down just to get high
HIGH
I get so so high so low I can touch the
Sky with no try why do I get down just to get
I get so so

Forever More

I can’t keep my cool with you
I been playing the fool it’s true
There has to be some rules
Between us two
I can’t keep my cool
She’s wearing a different suit today
Dressed up for the games we play
See the words around town I can’t put
You down
I can’t keep my cool
You’re just so beautiful
And I’m really sure
The feeling is mutual
Forevermore
I’ve been stuck in a mood today
Tired from the games we play
See I want you to stay
What more can I say
I can’t keep my cool
She’s wearing a different suit today
Dressed up for the games we play
See the words around town I can’t put
You down
I can’t keep my cool
You’re just so beautiful
And I’m really sure
The feeling is mutual

It's A Wonder
03:56

It’s a wonder how you feel at all
Oh yeah and it’s a wonder
How it makes you crawl
I’ve been searching for the truth
And it can’t be found in you no more
Oh yeah you got a different point of view
As long as you know we do too so let’s us grow oh yeah
Before you could barely see
Now you’re face to face with me
This our reality
It’s a wonder how you feel at all
Oh yeah and it’s a wonder
How it makes you ball
I’ve been searching for a sign
But in it ain’t no peace of mind no more
Oh yeah you got a different point of view as long as you know I do too so let’s it go oh yeah
Before you could barely see
Now you’re face with reality
This is who we’ve grown to be
Oh yeah

I Won't Let You Down
04:04

Take your time and don’t worry baby
Everything is fine even here lately
There’s an old friend just hanging around
When you need me I won’t let you down
No I won’t
I won’t
I’m here for you
Let you down
Whatever you do
I won’t
When you’re going through
Let you down
Know I’m here for you
Take your time and don’t go to strangers
The path they lay may lead to danger
There’s an old friend just standing
Around, when you need him
He won’t let you down, no I won’t
I won’t
I’m here for you
Let you down
Whatever you do
I won’t
When you’re going through
Let you down
Know I’m here for you

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last!
