Intro:

How you feeling?

Give thanks and breathe it in

Give thanks and breathe it in.

‘Cause we’re blessed.


Hook:

Blessed to have another moment,

Some more time spent,

Some more minds to get into.

Blessed to have another daydream,

Another maybe,

Yeah.


Verse 1:

Forget the bang or the reload,

The efforts to decode,

This life is a long road,

The objects to be bold,

The lessons are retold,

The prophets are resold,

The mercy is so cold,

We service the download.

So right this down now,

Brand new sound now,

Mix it right now,

Keep me loud now.

I wanna ignite the solar of your plexus,

I see you’re restless so take this and trust us.

Chances are there’s still a chance.

Forever is your state of trance.

Give thanks.

Breathe it in.


Hook:

Blessed to have another moment,

Some more time spent,

Some more minds to get into.

Blessed to have another daydream,

Another maybe,

Yeah.



Verse 2:

See this is for the takers and the offerings,

The barters and the bargaining,

The movers and the sitting in,

The wheel it out and come again.

We’re sending you a part of we,

Knowing what will be will be,

We giving you a melody,

Marketing a harmony.

So, write this down now,

Brand new sound now,

Mix it right now,

Keep me loud now.

I wanna ignite the solar of your plexus,

I see you’re restless so take this and trust us.

Believe that you can make believe,

You know who you’re supposed to be.

Give thanks.

Breathe it in.


Hook:


Blessed to have another moment,

Some more time spent,

Some more minds to get into.

Blessed to have another daydream,

Another maybe,

Yeah.


Bridge:

Three stages.

Believe.

Understand.

Make Believe.

Innerstand.

Chance.

Overstand.

There’s still a chance.

U feel me?

U hear me?

U see we?

Listen.

Granted that I have one more day.

To say what I have to say.

Granted that I still remain.

To share what is my song.


Hook:


Blessed to have another moment,

Some more time spent,

Some more minds to get into.

Blessed to have another daydream,

Another maybe,

Yeah.




2. SEASONS CHANGE – CORINNE BAILEY RAE


Oh oh oh...


Maybe you've been pouring everything into this your mistake of this

attends to agony, you can't predict this when it comes to it,

You can't hide from me, but don't you surrender anything..

Don't you know that, that patience is a virtue (yes it is),

and life is a waiting game...don't you know that, peace must be nurtured


And all the money in the world can buy you nothing... (i tell you that)

All these things happen, all these things happen for a reason,

don't you go on and throw it all away ...when the seasons change (you gonna change)...


Oh oh...


Hurts me to see you feel this way but it won't be always,

don't you know everything got to change,oh... feels like all

your hope is gone, you can't carry on, but there's nothing oh,

you don't have to pretend with me, don't you know that, that

patience is a virtue, (yes it is), and life is a waiting game,

don't you know that, peace must be nurtured...


All the money in the world can buy you nothing, (let me tell you that)...

All these things happen, all these I've done for a reason...

don't you go on throw it all away , when the seasons change

Oh oh oh...

When the seasons change

3. THE LIFE – ALICIA KEYS

Everyday I realize

That this might be the last day of my life

Walking down the street I find that

I'm coming closer and closer to losing my mind


Cause when it rains, it pours

Isn't life worth more

I don't even know what I'm hustling for

You've gotta do what you gotta do

Just to make it through

All the hard times that's gonna face you

Chorus:

This is the life

Striving to survive

This is the life

Striving to survive

(This is the life)


Livin will always be a struggle

Lookin for someone true to love you

Lookin back I see all the horrors

This madness makes me want to hide


I walk slowly, internally I'm dying

Pillowcase is wet from all my crying

There is nothing more

To be here for

Take me away

I can't live that life no more

Chorus x2


Tryin to get over

This is the life

Tryin to get over

This is the life

Tryin to get over

This is the life

Tryin to get over

This is the life

I'm gonna get over

This is the life

4. KEEP TRYIN – AMEL LARRIEUX/GROOVE THEORY

You've been

Missin'

Out on all the chances you've been given

Is it something

Within

Holding you back instead of livin'

Your day is coming though it seems far

Things will be clear when you love who you are

Nothin' can stop you as long as you listen to your heart

Chorus:

Lift your head to the sky

And keep tryin'

Believe in u

And it will take you higher

You have

Sorrows

Everywhere you turn they seem to follow

If you

Let go

Happiness will come to you tomorrow

Your day is coming though it seems far

Things will be clear when you love who you are

Nothin' can stop you as long as you listen to your heart

Chorus

5. HEADED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION – INDIA ARIE


[Chorus]

Headed in the right direction

I can see the light of day

I've got love as my connection

There's an angel showing me the way


Been reaching for love all my life

I couldn't find it always one step behind it

Now I know it was mine all the time finally I am

[Chorus]

Headed in the right direction

I can see the light of day

I've got love as my protection

There's no need for me to be afraid


I spend so much time with my head in the clouds

Now that I've got my feet on the ground

I found that I am


[Chorus]

Headed in the right direction

I can see the light of day

I've got faith and intuition telling me that I will be okay


Down the path that I walked there was eyes

Somebody told me that I look like I'm glowing

They just dried all the tears from my eyes now I can see that


[Chorus]

Headed in the right direction

I can see the light of day

Now I've found my pearl of wisdom

There's no need for me to be afraid


Headed in the right direction

There's an angel showing me the way

I have found my inspiration

Headed in the right direction

6. GROWTH – INDIA ARIE (INTRELUDE)

The only thing constant in the world is change

That´s why today I take life as it comes.

7. PEARLS – SADE


There is a woman in somalia

Scraping for pearls on the roadside

There's a force stronger than nature

Keeps her will alive

That's how she's dying

She's dying to survive

Don't know what she's made of

I would like to be that brave

She cries to the heaven above

There is a stone in my heart

She lives a life she didn't choose

And it hurts like brand-new shoes


Hurts like brand-new shoes


There is a woman in somalia

The sun gives her no mercy

The same sky we lay under

Burns her to the bone

Long as afternoon shaddows

It's gonna take her to get home

Each grain carefully wrapped up

Pearls for her little girl


Hallelujah

Hallelujah


She cries to the heaven above

There is a stone in my heart

She lives a life she didn't choose

And it hurts like brand-new shoes

8. SACRED – AMEL LARRIEUX


Is there nothing sacred anymore

When
Celebrities are deified

And we're still calling some countries third world

And
Crimes against little ones

Are punished with little laws

And
Girls are taught to hide their curves

As though they're flaws

And other girls are taught to expose them but not own

Them and

Boys are taught

They can own it all


Is there nothing sacred anymore

In the 21st century

And I still get followed 'round in stores

And

Governments are using our money for

Reasons other than what they say they're using it for

And

Small countries fold as their

Big debt keeps on growing and

Silent pain is golden under the guise of religion and

Boys are taught

They can own it all


Is there nothing sacred anymore

Well maybe there never was, at all



9. CHANGE IT ALL – GOAPELE


Verse 1:

They're closing all the schools down

Some teachers work for free now

And libraries won't be found

Cause there's not enough


Can you see a change in your town

Small close it's ???

I'm trying to sort it out

What we're giving up


Chorus:

Basically

There are people left out

From living

Comfortably can we figure it out

I've been waiting

Restlessly for the words to a song

That would

Change it all

Change it all

Change it all


Verse 2:

I never found a 9 to 5

That was worth it from my soul

Til I

I pursued what brought joy in my life

And there's something for us all


And I still think it is my right

And it's the last and one of few

To get the luxery for learning

Something I could use


Chorus:

Basically

There are people left out

From living

Comfortably can we figure it out

I've been waiting

Restlessly for the words to a song

That could

Change it all

Change it all

(If the words could change it all) Change it all

(Change it all)


Bridge:

So many laws are changing

They say it's the price for war

We send over at least ? billions

It's hard to believe that years ago people died to fight

But history feels so far away

History feels so far away

We're not fighting for our lives anymore

You're not fighting for my life anymore

It's hard to know what's really worth fighting for

Or is it killing and dying on the streets


Chorus:

Ohhh

Basically

There are people left out

From living

Comfortably can we figure it out

I've been waiting

Restlessly for the words to a song

That could

Change it all


Chorus 2:

Oh!

Basically

There's enough for us all

So

Why can't we somehow figure it out

I've been waiting

Restlessly for the words to a song

That could

Change it all

Change it all

(If the words could change it all) Change it all

Change it all

Change it all

If a song could change it all

What if we could change it all

10. I HAD A DREAM – JOSS STONE

I had a dream last night

What a lovely dream it was

I dreamed we all were alright

Happy in a land of oz

Why did everybody laugh when I told them my dream?

I guess they all were so far from that kind of that scene

Feelin real mean


I heard a song last night

What a lovely song it was

I thought I'd hum it all night

Unforgettable because..


All of the players were playing together

And all of the happies were as light as a feather

See, your love remember is a freeing of soul

But as I recall, the rest will just follow


I had a dream last night

What a lovely dream it was

I dreamed we all were alright

Happy in a land of oz

What a lovely dream it was

What a lovely dream it was


What a lovely dream it was

11. EXPRESSIONS OF LOVE – RAUL MIDON

How would it be,

If you and me, through our love,

Could improve the world?

How would it be if we would see with our hearts?

It would be sweet expression of love.


How does it feel

When you reveal to someone that they’ve found a friend?

How does it feel when someone whispers your name?

Feels like a sweet expression of love

Expressions of love

Can’t deny even when we’re saying goodbye

And just when it feels as if love’s at an end

It comes back again like the sun in spring

That’s the way of everything.

Here’s to hope and…


Expressions of love can’t deny

Even when we’re saying goodbye

And just when it feels as if love’s at an end

It comes back again like the sun in spring

That’s the way of everything

Here’s to hope and time…

12. IT’S ONLY LOVE THAT GETS YOU THROUGH – SADE

Girl you are rich even with nothing

And you know tenderness comes from pain

It's amazing how you love

And love is kind and love can give

And get no gain


[1] - It's down a rugged road you've come

Though you had every reason

You didn't come undone

Somehow you made it to the other side

You didn't suffer in vain


You forgive those who have trespassed against you

And you know tenderness comes from pain

It's amazing how you love

And love is kind and love can give

And love needs no gain


[Repeat 1]


You didn't suffer in vain

You know it's only love

That gets you through

Only love, it's only love

It's only love that gets you through


13. I’M YOU, YOU ARE ME AND WE ARE YOU – MAXWELL

[1] - I'm you: you are me and we are you

I'm you: you are me and we are you

I'm you: you are me and we are you


Estoy alcanzando

Muy profundo adentro

Profundo en mi

Donde ella vivir

Un vuelo alto

Como si un cielo

En frente de mi

Donde tu vas a estar


[Repeat 1]


I'm reaching for this deep inside

This deep in me

Where she resides

A higher fly as if a sky

Beyond the me

Where you will be


[Repeat 1]



14. DELICATE – TERENCE TRENT D’ARBY FEAT DESIRE’E



Delicate like rain

Delicate like snow

Delicate like birds

Delicate just so

Delicate like air

Delicate like breeze

Delicate like you and me

A delicate advance

A delicate retreat

Delicately planned

Delicate like peace

Delicate like a touch

That's delicately brief

Delicate like you and me

Delicate like trinkets on her bracelet

(Like trinkets on her bracelet)

Delicate like a bracelet on your arm

(Like a bracelet on your arm)

Delicate like sweet arms around me

(Your sweet arms around me)

Delicate like me on top of you

Delicate like words

Delicate how time

So delicately runs

Then delicately dies

Delicate how eyes

So delicately breathe

Delicate like you my dear

Delicate like me my love

Delicate like you and

Delicate like me and

Delicate like

Delicate like you and me

15. LITTLE THINGS – INDIA ARIE


oh,oh,oh

oh,oh,oh

oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh

oh,oh,oh


oh,oh,oh

oh,oh,oh

oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh

oh,oh,oh


Been around the whole world

still ain't seen

nothin like my neighborhood

out of all of the fancy satin and silk

my white cotton feels so good

searched high and low

for a place where I can lay my burdens down

ain't nothin in the whole wide world

like the peace that I have found


Little things (its the little things)

and the joy they bring

Little things (its the little things)

and the joy they bring


simple as a phone call

just to make it known

that you're gonna be a little late

pure as a kiss on the cheek

and a word that everything will be okay

call in the morning from my little sister

singing to me happy birthday

when you quest for fortune and fame

don't forget about the simple things


Little things (its the little things)

and the joy they bring

Little things (its the little things)

and the joy they bring


give some good food, give me some cute shoes

give me some peace of mind

give me some sunshine, give me some blue skies


runnin round in circles

lost my focus

lost sight of my goals

I do this for the love of music

not for the glitter and gold

got everything that I prayed for

even a little more

when I asked to learn humility

this is what I was told


Little things (its the little things)

and the joy they bring

Little things (its the little things)

and the joy they bring


give me my guitar, give me a bright star

give me some good news, give me some cute shoes

give me Atlanta, give me Savannah

give me my peace of mind

give me some Stevie, give me some Donnie

give me my Daddy, give me my Mommy

pour me some sweet tea, spoonful of honey

I don't need no hollywood



16. THE SWEETEST GIFT – SADE



Quietly while you were asleep

The moon and I were talking

I asked that she'd always keep you protected


She promised you her light

That you so gracefully carry

You bring your light and shine like morning


And then the wind pulls the clouds across the moon

Your light fills the darkest room

And I can see the miracle

That keeps us from falling


She promised all the sweetest gifts

That only the heaven's could bestow

You bring your light and shine like morning


And as you so gracefully give

Her light as long as you live

I'll always remember this moment
