"Why Christmas"

"Why Christmas"


[Mike and Wanya talk in the beginning:]
[Mike:] Hey, what's wrong squirt?
[Wanya:] I don't know man. Sometimes around this time of year I just get depressed.
[Mike:] Man, this isn't the time of year to be depressed.
It's the time to be happy and giving, man.
[Wanya:] You know,
Sometimes I think about things that are happening in the world today,
Things I didn't have. I just feel like crying.
[Mike:] We all feel that way sometimes. But, it'll be alright.
[Wanya:] I just, I just wonder why.

Every day at this time of year
I wonder time and time again
Why are kids suffering?
All of the tears 'cause being caught in the crossfire (Why?)
Somebody tell me why

As the joyous day comes along
The eldest feel there's something wrong
He's looking for Mom but she's not there
Kids are looking for reindeer in the air

[Chorus:]
She messed up again
Why?
My brother and my sister
They ain't got no toys
What am I supposed to do
When growing up for me wasn't joy?
It's gonna be a why Christmas
It's gonna be, it's gonna be a
A why Christmas

No one was there but Grandma and her friends
A time of heartache is setting in
There's nothing I can do
Just sit and feel pain run me through
I often wished they were never born
The thought of them not having no toys
Their little hearts were torn
I was young and I cried as well

I didn't have a job
But I prayed to the Lord that there'd be better days
Yes, he gave me a reason to live
He gave me a sign
But I still think to that day when

[Chorus]

Brother and my
Brother and my
Brother and my
Sister
[repeats a lot]

[Chorus (repeats to fade out)]

[Nate Morris:]
Do you remember when?
We would gaze upon
The heavens up above
Revealed within the night
Took turns in looking thru
A telescope discovering
A little star that smiled right back at us

I never strayed away far form all the crowds
A hint of solitude
Concealed behind your smile
Remember when the lights went out that summer's eve
We stumbled in the dark and kissed beneath the stars

Wonder if it's possible to ever know
How many dreams I've cherished since that time ago
People only dream, when they close their eyes at night
But ill open up my eyes:

Wonder if it's possible to ever know
All the skies I've journeyed thru and touched before
Some rely on fate
But it's not the only way
This is my destiny
And this is my will

[Shawn Stockman:]
The sparkle in the night
Glitter in the sky
Each star we see at night
Have all been here before
There really has to be
Some place nobody has seen
And there we'll start anew
Future for mw and you

Memories illuminate in harmony
Like a constellation bound in unity
Tho they used to sing
So scatter thru the sky
I recognize the beauty

Memories in circle all around me
Illustrate passage thru this journey
Confirming my belief, this is no coincidence
This is my destiny
This is my, will

[Wanya Morris:]
Horizons I have crossed in the past
Chapters in the story of my life
All the midnight skies
Are promising forever more
I'm reaching out to soar

I wonder if it's possible to ever know
How many dreams I've cherished since that time ago
See people they only dream
When they close their eyes at night
But ill open up my eyes

I wonder if it's possible to ever know
All the skies I've journeyed thru and touched before
So rely on fate, but it's not the only way
This is my destiny, this is my will

"Will You Be There"

"Will You Be There"


I've been looking for someone to be there when the water rise
Not just when the skies are clear
But when the tears form in my eyes
Sometimes it's rough but strange enough
You stay through all the pain
I owe you somewhere of that
Can you be my umbrella in the rain?

[Chorus:]
When the storm clouds roll in (Will you be there?)
When the nights get colder (Will you be there?)
To be the one I am holding (Will you be there?)
I need you, where are ya? (Will you be there?)
When the winds are blowing (Will you be there?)
You feel the changes coming (Will you be there?)
Just tell me so
All I want to know is can you stand the rain?

Life can be so suffocating
It makes it hard to breathe
Love is over-rated for the ones who don't believe
But I know somewhere out there
Love will surely find me
Like the eye of a hurricane will you be the peace that I need
I know that when I am gonna find you I ain't going nowhere
When the weather is raging hope you'll be there
Whether you're in my life don't be ashamed
Can you be my umbrella in the rain?

[Chorus:]
When the storm clouds roll in (Will you be there?)
When the nights get colder (Will you be there?)
To be the one I am holding (Will you be there?)
I need you, where are ya? (Will you be there?)
When the winds are blowing (Will you be there?)
You feel the changes coming (Will you be there?)
Just tell me so
All I want to know is can you stand the rain?

When the sunrise kisses the sky
And the clouds clear; girl I know you are gonna be here with me through adversity
If this feeling stays the same only then I know that you can stand the rain

[Chorus:]
When the storm clouds roll in (Will you be there?)
When the nights get colder (Will you be there?)
To be the one I am holding (Will you be there?)
I need you, where are ya? (Will you be there?)
When the winds are blowing (Will you be there?)
You feel the changes coming (Will you be there?)
Just tell me so
All I want to know is can you stand the rain?

When the walls fall crashing
Could your love everlast it?
I've been looking for someone
Is it you? Is it you girl?
Is it you? Hope it's you girl
Is it you? is it you girl?
Is it you? Hope it's you girl
All I want to know is can you stand the rain...

(originally by Dreams Come True)

"Winter Song"
(originally by Dreams Come True)



The dusk is gaining ground, lights flicker all around,
And as I walk the lonely streets,
The snow is fallin' ever faster,
Looking to the sky,
I wonder where you are,
The way you came in to my life,
I'm filling every day with laughter
Almost blinded by the snow flags on my face,
Despite the chill I feel the warmth of your embrace,
Intoxicated now I spanker like a fool
I feel that surely like a flow away.

[Chorus:]
I want to show you everything,
I see the way I'm feeling,
I need to be with you tonight,
To hold your arms around me,
My love for you is deep within,
The deepest snows of winter,
The greatest gift I've ever had was you, you.

You're sparkling crystal the world,
This magic winter land,
If I could share it all with you,
And make believe forever after,
Like a blanket over everything in shine,
And in the hush I hear this [?] overnight,
The snow has covered all the streets we walk alone,
(I'm dreaming all alone)
And I hope you still remember me tonight,
I want to show you everything,
And I need to be with you tonight,
Hold your arms around me, huu
This snow of winter the greatest gift I ever had,
Carry in my feeling this way before,
Do you know, do you understand what's going through my heart,
The way that I love you I just hope you feel it too,
Tonight wherever you are.

[Chorus:]
I want to show you everything,
I see the way I'm feeling,
I need to be with you tonight,
To hold your arms around me,
My love for you is deep within,
The deepest snow on winter
The greatest gift I've ever had was you, you.

The greatest gift I've ever had was you, you,
The greatest gift I've ever had was you, you,
The greatest gift I've ever had was you, you.

"Wishes"

"Wishes"


Here I am on my own
It gets hard sometimes when I'm traveling this empty world
All alone I get tired
And oh I get oh so weak
And I need for someone to come and rescue me

To help me along to catch when I miss
To show me where I oughta be
So I can be strong and face all of this

That my life tries to discourage me with.
With a little luck will I find you
And if I do it is you who'll make my dreams come true
Just a little bit of happiness
Is all that I wish

And I hope that you can grant me this
When I look at my life
And where I've been
And I wonder if the story has a happy end,

Like they always do, but if my wish comes true
I just hope and pray I always can depend on you
To help me along to catch when I miss
To show me where I oughta be
So I can be strong and face all of this

That my life tries to discourage me with.
With a little luck will I find you
And if I do it is you who'll make my dreams come true
Just a little bit of happiness

Is all that I wish
And I hope that you can grant me this [Repeat]

"Woman Don't Cry"

"Woman Don't Cry"


So you're feelin' lonely
Like love has gone away at night
You're brokenhearted cause your man ain't never done you right
You feel discouraged, feel like love ain't nothing but a lie
Your broken heart is taking another teardrop from your eyes,
I'm telling you

No woman don't cry
Promise I will be by your side
I want you to know that love is alive (Yes it is)
And love don't want no woman to cry

I can hear you thunder
I can feel the pain in your eyes
I can smell the flowers that he never gave on Valentine's

Don't be discouraged cause he wasn't right
I know your heart is broken
But I promise you that you're the survivor I'm telling you

No woman don't cry
Promise I will be by your side
I want you to know that love is alive
And love don't want no woman to cry

You gave him your love
You gave him your soul
You gave him your money
You gave him a home
Well all he ever gave you
Was a broken heart
Well girl I'm right here standing with love

No woman don't cry
Promise I will be by your side
I want you to know that love is alive
And love don't want no woman to cry

Oh... no

"Work It Out"

"Work It Out"


[Intro]
Yeah, NFL, Boyz II Men
Characters baby
Meet me on the dance floor, come on

[Nafis]
Yo
It's like this, in a nice miss we faked it some tight whips
Chromed out (*edited*) out tokens'll right this
That frozen alley had my lip on some mad (*edited*)
Cuz we stack chips, had us grove to a plat' list
When they see us, yeah run
They hopin' out the Beamers, Pourches Range Rovers and Hummers
My crew the cleanest, we the grittiest, back the meanest chick
Get the Nafis dip, bouncers at the door clear the path
It's Nafis forever clique

[Boys II Men]
Have them take a place
People sittin' 'round
Riders on the side
No one's even tried to get down
Brotha's being fly
Ladies acting shy
Ain't no doubt to loose
I'm gon' get my groove on tonight
Gotta dance, gotta dance, gotta dance

[1] - Ain't no use in holding up the wall
Come and get that body on the floor
Baby, lose control and scream and shout
Get your boogie down and work it out

Everybody's out, party's going on
And we're gonna rock until the sunlight crash and dawn
('Till the break of dawn)
Ain't a thing that you can do
When the rhythm's calling you
Let it work it's way right into you
Gotta dance, gotta dance, gotta dance

[Repeat 1 ]
[Repeat 1 ]

Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na

[Garrison Hearst]
Make it move there's no need to hold back now
Hit the floor, let loose and watch me break this down
Keep it mellow or we can get wild
See you haters in the corner tryin' to peep my style
You want my stash, gold, checks, sports illustrated
I'm motivated by the fact that I'm being hated
Now my pockets swell, game straight outta ATL
G-land, Boyz II Men, work it out
What's the deal

[Repeat 1]

"Yesterday"

"Yesterday"


Yesterday...
All my troubles seem so far away
Now it seems as though they're here to stay
Oh I believe in yesterday
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I use to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go, I don't know
She wouldn't say, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong now I long for yesterday
Yesterday...
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday
Oh I... had to go I don't know
She would not say
I said something wrong
How I long for yesterday
Yesterday...
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday
I believe in yester...day

Was so far away
Oh yesterday was far away
And I know I can't turn back
Cause yesterday is gone

"You Don't Love Me"

"You Don't Love Me"


I don't think I know the definition of love
Cause what you say it is and what I'm thinkin of
You say you want a good man and
But when you got one you don't know how to handle it...

Bitta sistas what you've become
I was tryin to be the mister to make you come, to your senses
But you wanted to be happy
That's the main reason why you got at me

Cause you know that I'm an earner
Legal dough...not a crook with a burner
You can't understand what kind of love I give
You never got over your last relationship

I showed how you should be done
Before me...niggas used to smash and run
You ain't tryin, stop lyin
You never cared and I don't even know why I'm here

[Chorus 1:]
You don't love me
I took you outta the club to live lavishly
You don't love me
How could you ever take advantage of me
You don't love me
Everything you are girl I made you
You don't love me
You never loved me

Your old dude used to hold you down and beat you
I was trying to hold you how and treat ya
To shopping sprees, jewels, cars and cruises
All this without the scars and bruises

With him, all you show is signs of meekness
May have took my kindness for weakness
Also because I don't lay hands
But that don't make me less of a man

Be easy...you're being disrespectful
Don't get it twisted
I will check you
Why are chicks in check when dudes treat 'em like shit
And good dudes get no love

[Chorus 2:]
You don't love me
You're gonna miss me girl when I'm gone
You don't love me
Gonna remember what you did wrong
You don't love me
Never gonna find nobody like me
You don't love me
You never loved me

If you really loved me
Girl it would show
But you've been flippin on me
Now you gotta go
Don't let nothing that I bought you walk out the door
Cause I don't want you no more
I don't want you no more

[Chorus 1]
