Lyrics

GETTING LIFTED TO THE TOUCH OF JAZZ
STAYING TRUE TO THE GAME
REAL LOVE
WHEN I SAY YOUR NAME
LANCHERY CANTEL LIGHT VIN & DIN
PUNCH LINE
NON STOP DEDICATION
ROCK DA NATION
24-7
IT FEELS LIKE HEAVEN
CAN'T YOU SEE THE CHEMISTRY
WORDS-RHYTHMS-MELODY-POATRY
YOU KNOW ME
HARD TIMES LONG GONE
LET'S GET IT ON!!

For what you did for me I'm so grateful.
You lifted what was low. Now I'm free.
You took the blinders off. I see clearer.
Created peace where the confusion had overtaken my soul.

You keep on lifting me.
You keep on lifting me up and...
...you keep on lifting me.
Now I wanna say I feel much feelin' better.

You keep on lifting me.
You keep on lifting me up and...
...you keep on lifting me.
Now I wanna say I feel much feelin' better.

STANDING IN THE DARK
WHEN YOU WALKED IN
I TOOK MY TIME TO DROP THE RIGHT LINE
CAUSE YOU SO FINE
YOU SHINE
NOW YOU'RE MINE
IT'S MEANT TO BE
TOGETHER FOREVER BABY
WE'RE THE DREAM TEAM
TRUE LOVE IT DON'T STOP
LIKE JAZZ AND HIP HOP
THE MIXTURE OF BODY & SOUL
OUR FUTURE GOAL
MAKING DREAM COME TRUE
COMING STRONG BABY BOO
JUST ME AND YOU
YEAH YOU KNOW HOW WE DO!
