Hey, where you goin’ with that grin on your face Go on just leave me here in a state of disgrace I know you don’t care about me no more So go on, just get out, walk on out the door Five years is a long time to waste away But you know I don’t take, it that way Somehow I always knew you wouldn’t stay But it wasn’t too good to be true any which way Oh baby I ain’t gonna waste no time no more Oh baby, I’m so sick of wastin time Don’t wanna waste, no don’t wanna waste no time no more Ain’t gonna waste no precious time Love is such a strange fruit in this crazy race No time to be alone and just communicate But how can I talk to you now when you’ve turned the page Our space is such a strange place, the dawning of a new age Oh baby I ain’t gonna waste no time no more Oh baby, I’m so sick of wastin time Don’t wanna waste, no don’t wanna waste no time no more Ain’t gonna waste no precious time Oh baby I ain’t gonna waste no time no more Oh baby, I ain't gonna waste no time no more Don’t wanna waste, no don’t wanna waste no time no more No more...

What It Means 04:37
lyrics
buy track
You say that I'm an African woman But I don't know exactly who I am Where is my land, except in this place Where I was born, and where are living my friends You say, that I should be proud of myself But first you must be proud of your soul There is a weight on my shoulders All the tears that I’ve seen by pictures I’ve got a right to live on my own I’ve got a right to walk all alone If I could forget the ghosts in my past One day I am sure I will understand, what it means to walk on my own You say we’ve had hard times But struggle and sorrow come to all But nowadays I can see a man in the street He doesn’t like the way I move my feet I’ve got a right to leave on my own I’ve got a right to walk on my own Now I can forget the ghosts in my past One day I am sure I will understand, what it means, what it means, to be black I spent so much time trying to understand Just exactly who I am I'm trying I'm trying, I'm trying, trying again, I've got my voice, only my voice, to explain I’ve got a right to live on my own I’ve got a right to walk all alone Cause now I can forget the ghosts in my past Now I am sure, now I understand, what it means, to walk on my own

Listen To Me (featuring Saraph Sunman) 05:06
lyrics
buy track
Listen to me Hear what I say The band knows a way Have you had a dream You know what they mean to you Knowing how you feel Knowing what is really real Listen to me Hear what I say Black is okay Oh how can you say That you know the only way If life is a drag Then you know the rags to wear Clean the wax out your ears and please listen to me Most cats, be straight wack, with little substance, they speak A lot of nonsense on tracks but lack the vision to see That Hip-Hop was the voice that empowered the weak Started off in the parks as a way to teach The poor youth about self-knowledge, righteous speech It used to be for the upliftment of community Now it packs jails for capitalist industries I know sex sells but hell I need some substance please See I mean well not dissing who be on T.V. Everybody has to fulfill their destiny Life’s a mystery until you find the recipe Every time I spit bars, you get the best of me Soul goal is to resurrect your frequency Saraph and Urban Groove Unit gonna set you free Lyrically, sonic symphony, ministry, so please won’t you LISTEN TO ME!
