Intro (Cool) 01:07
You know it's cool..
2.
Open fire on my mind haunting thoughts of better times Who's there with me? Who can I call? Give me a hand before I fall Don't fall asleep and leave me there Another blow I couldn't bear To be alone is all I fear I need someone who needs me here Somebody smile for me Somebody say a word Someone get high with me Somebody bless the earth Somebody walk with me Somebody turn me on Someone take off with me before the thrill is gone (no no no) It seems to me that truth can make the hardest soft the firmest shake but how could I teach anyone? Oh how could I reach anyone? With lessons learned and hope restored To lose you now, I can't afford If you see me just vibe me down and let me know you need me around Chorus

Never Thot 04:35
He walks so confidently apparently knowing that I'm watching and I'm liking it He's got an aura so intangibly alluring That's enticing to me You should know it ain't everyday a queen like me decides to see if you're worth the time of day You should know it ain't a common thing for me to be caught up in love It's a brand new feeling Never thought it'd happen to me never thought I'd be on a cloud but just look at me now I'd even dare to say I'll never come down Never thought I'd be that girl never thought I'd trust a man enough to give him my world Bet he doesn't even know.. He gives me everything I need a magical antidote His majesty, have me He knows how I like to be handled like a love doll I even want him in my sleep You should know it ain't everyday a queen like me decides to see if you're worth the time of day You should know it ain't a common thing for me to be caught up in love It's a brand new feeling Never thought it'd happen to me never thought I'd be on a cloud but just look at me now I'd even dare to say I'll never come down Never thought I'd be that girl never thought I'd trust a man enough to give him my world Bet he doesn't even know.. Boy I can't imagine what's happening in your mind Tell me that I'm what you want and I'm your type I'll go with you even if it's only a night

#1 Spot 03:26
I'm just thinkin' bout the weekend and what's in store for me and you It's kinda funny that we tried to be friends Now look at all the things we do Who would've thought that when you met me we would be where we are? I'm getting caught up reminiscing Not supposed to look back that far I just wanna give you loving like you've never had it and I wanna be the only one And I just wanna be your safety net, your teacher's pet Baby, you know just where I'm coming from I need to have the #1 spot I should be getting all that you got I need to be the one that you chase staring at me on stage and I need to hear it face to face I need to be the one you love hot These other girls should know they got no shot Baby, you got me I ain't going away I tell you everyday I'm here for you I'm here to love you down

Erzulie 06:19
Evoking the Goddess Love Studying the highest stuff Finding my worth in the things of the Earth preparing my place above I belong with the beings the ones my ancestors could see Beating the drum of the land I come from where it's hailed to be black as me You could be like the queen like the fury of Erzulie Giving and loving surrendering nothing demanding your energy Listening for what you say Ah mon Dieu, Papa Bondye The world will be yours all full of your cause If you dance, I will dance that way Darling, you're spirited I know you're hearing it You're not imagining Let magic win Open to what is true The power inside of you to rise up and start again Let magic win Humming for peace of mind Entranced by the great design Taking your place with the bodies in space You are there as the starts align You ride on a higher vibe Is that how you found your tribe? Got back to your roots discovered your truth and abandoned the tired lie You could be like the sun the purveyor of everyone Indestructible, troubled a fiery bubble an ornament proudly hung Listening for they say des mystères, Papa Bondye The world will be yours all full of your cause I will dance for you everyday Darling, you're spirited I know you're hearing it You're not imagining Let magic win Open to what is true The power inside of you to rise up and start again Let magic win

You know that it's cool Maybe I was wrong for asking too many questions always wanting to know how the world works never just letting go feeling crippled by feelings at all.. never being truly emotional I have often asked myself if it was worth it all to lock up my heart in a cage and call it home Haven't we suffered enough? pulled between the earth and the air above seeking from place to place a homely, familiar comfort or joy But it's hard to find when the blood is always on your mind and you take a step back to rewind you see that everything is fine You know that it's cool
