With your hands you grab my hips
Pull me closer I feel your warmth
Dreams so real that I forget
You are no longer
I only have you this way
And I know you can't stay
I only have you I only have you this way
Don't want to let our dream go
Though it haunts me it also thrills me
As soon as I close my eyes
You're waiting for me
I only have you this way
And I know you can't stay
I only have you I only have you this way
I only have you this way
And I know you can't stay
I only have you I only have you this way
I'm living in a dream world
Wake me up wake me up wake me up wake me up
Need to move on without you
I cannot have you this way
My dreams are where I'm with you but
Wake me up wake me up wake me up wake me up
My soul deserves someone to love
I cannot have you this way
Wake me up wake me up wake me up wake me up
In the new light of the morning
My soul deserves someone to love
In the new light of the morning
Wake me up wake me up wake me up wake me up
In the new light of the morning
In the new light of the morning
It'll be alright in the morning
I cannot have you I cannot have you this way
Wake me up wake me up wake me up wake me up

Well I rolled and tumbled
Cried the whole day through
Well I rolled and tumbled
Cried the whole day through
I need me to find another man
Who loves me the way you do
Well I’m searching far and wide
Trying to hide my fears
I’m searching far and wide
Trying to hide my tears
I need me to find another man
Who won’t hurt me the way you did
Way you did
Way you did
Way you did
[gtr solo]
Well these tears that I cried
Almost drowned my soul
These tears that I cried
Almost drowned my soul
I need me to find another way
A way to carry on
On my own
Carry on
Don’t need no man
Just my guitar
Carry on
Carry on

Cannot take this from me

Never gonna say die never gonna say die
Never gonna close my mind

So I will roll up my sleeves
And I will do it myself
I don’t wait for anybody
And I know that nothing is free
So I’m gonna prove my worth
Never gonna close my eyes
Never gonna waste my time
Never gonna say die never gonna say die
Never gonna close my mind
Never gonna waste my time
Never gonna say die never gonna say die

Never gonna say die never gonna say die

Never gonna say die never gonna say die
Never gonna close my mind

I don't praise your God
I praise the earth and the sky and the moon
I don't follow time
I follow waves of the ocean of my womb
What I do to you is witchcraft
And it’s up to you resist that
So time after time we had the power
But no chance to shine
Only to be devoured
Waiting patiently
For things to change
Well now change has come
Prepare for the wave
What I do to you is witchcraft
And it’s up to you resist that
What I do to you is witchcraft
And it’s up to you
[instrumental breakdown]
There's a new day coming oh my how we've prayed
There's a new wave coming don't get swept away
There's a new day coming oh my how we've prayed
There's a new wave coming don't get swept away
There's a new day coming oh my how we've prayed
There's a new wave coming don't get swept away
There's a new day coming oh my how we've prayed
There's a new wave coming don't get swept away
What I do to you is witchcraft
And it’s up to you resist that
What I do to you is witchcraft
And it’s up to you resist that

See you in the next life

Open your eyes
In the next life
’Til then I’ll fly
Live up live high

And I’ve been born a thousand times
Timing is everything
So I will wait patiently
See you in the next life

You were mine a long time ago
Some dreams are meant to burn
I’ll watch you fade away
Take this lifetime figure it out
I’ll see you again next time around around
See you in the next life

Dance he said dance like you’ll never dance again
Laugh he said laugh like you’ll never laugh again
He died a young man but seemed an old man
He saw not the end but a way to begin again
So tell me once tell me twice, tell me that I’ll never die
When you lie, won’t you please tell me why?
When you can then I’ll search for the answers
But I’ll get lost and find more to wonder
Like why the dead man knows it all
And why I feel alone
And why I try to fly but always fall
Back to earth
[gtr solo]
And when I die I’ll know it all
And I accept that I am alone
And I will try to fly but I will fall
Back to earth

And from the ashes something new grows
Funny how this life
On and on it goes on and on it goes
I've always been told reach for the sky
But I'm already high
Love knows no levels love knows no levels
And I see where I am going
And I see where I have been
Keep my faith forever flowing until the end
And I see where I am going
And I see where I have been
Keep my faith forever flowing until the end
I am flying, spreading my wings
Will you miss me when I'm gone?
Yes some are born blessed
But there's beauty in the struggle
All of us are one
My fight is your fight, my fight is your fight
We grow together it's our responsibility
To love unconditionally
And carry on the life, carry on the life
And I see where I am going
And I see where I have been
Keep my faith forever flowing until the end
And I see where I am going
And I see where I have been
Keep my faith forever flowing until the end
I am flying, spreading my wings
Will you miss me when I'm gone?
I am flying, someday soaring
So will you catch me when I fall?
[instrumental]
I will let my love flow free from my head down to my feet
I will let my love flow free from my heart into my strings

All Rise

I went to church today
To try to find my way
The preacher was a shade of grey
Turned on the radio
To make my heart grow
All the songs were DOA
Over again, over again
We never seem to learn
All rise for the wave of humanity trapped in insanity
All rise for the wave of humanity trapped
Wouldn't you wouldn’t you wouldn’t you rather be in love?
All rise for the wave of humanity trapped
I saw a film and cried
Cos it exposed the lies
The message it was lost in time
Don't know what to believe
Versus what I perceive
The truth is in front of my eyes
Over again over again
We never seem to learn
All rise for the wave of humanity trapped in insanity
All rise for the wave of humanity trapped
Wouldn't you wouldn’t you wouldn’t you rather be in love?
All rise for the wave of humanity trapped in insanity
[Solo]
I would rather be in love
Lose myself and rise above
I would rather be in love
Joy and peace will be enough
I would rather be in love
We never seem to learn
All rise for the wave of humanity trapped in insanity
All rise for the wave of humanity trapped
Wouldn't you wouldn’t you wouldn’t you rather be in love?
All rise for the wave of humanity trapped in insanity.

As the wind is blowing it carries away my trust
As the rain is pouring it washes away my lust
My eyes are wide open all I see is one man
He better act fast now and catch me while he still can
Don’t lie to me, don’t lie to me don’t lie to me
Don’t lie to me, don’t lie to me I cared for you
My heart it beats to the rhythm of mercy
Oh how I long to believe that he loves me
I need to be careful I need to protect myself
Surround me with wisdom of the divine truth yeah
Don’t lie to me, don’t lie to me don’t lie to me
Don’t lie to me, don’t lie to me I cared for you
So hard to trust, I have to let go
‘Cos I don’t want to wait so long for love
And so I must, I have to let go
So I don’t have to wait so long for love
I can feel his energy I won’t let him come for me hey hey
I can feel his energy I won’t let him come for me hey hey
I can feel his energy but I will overcome
I will overcome
I will overcome
As the wind is blowing it carries away my trust
As the rain is pouring it washes away my lust
My eyes are wide open all I see is one man
He better act fast now and catch me while he still can

Summertime spring has come and gone
Golden rays of light illumination
I see so clearly now I have a vision
They say follow your dreams
They say follow your dreams
I will follow my dreams
And I know that I don’t want to suffer
And so I will leave my bags behind
And be brave no matter how uncertain
Oh I will find I will find a way
There will be there will be a way
I will find I will find a way
As I’ve grown I have left behind
The part of me that can’t make up her mind
They took advantage of her
I feel I can’t go on
I know I must go on
Oh I will go on
And I know that I don’t want to suffer
And so I will listen to my heart
And be brave unfazed by the darkness
Oh I will find I will find a way
I’m telling you there will be there will be a way
I will find I will find
I will find oh I will find

Don’t know why I still think about him
Even though he don’t deserve my thoughts
Don’t know how I will let anyone in
I need to know I need to know
And sometimes I wanna kick down these walls
But then I know I won’t be protected
But protection at what cost
I need to know I need to know yeah
So exciting at the start
Then you live the day by day
Don’t let it go don’t let it fall apart
Once the shine starts to fade yeah
Afterglow come and go
Afterglow come and go
And I know I need to open my heart
So I can learn to love
How to conquer the fear of hurt?
I need I need I need to know, I need to know yeah
So exciting at the start
Then you live the day by day
Don’t let it go don’t let it fall apart
Once the shine starts to fade yeah
Afterglow come and go
Afterglow come and go
Come and go go go go go go go
Come and go, go
Come and go go go go go go go
Come and go, go
Come and go, come and go
I believe in love reality
If I want to love I have to work for it
Not everything is worth my energy
Follow vibrations and I’ll never get lost no
I believe in knowing when it’s right
I have faith in myself and I
Follow vibrations and I’ll never get lost
Never get lost, never get lost
Never get lost, never get lost
Never get lost, never get lost
Never get lost, never get lost
Never get lost
Just like the wind blows it comes and goes
Feel what I feel in my soul, it comes and goes comes and goes oh
Just like the wind blows it comes and goes
Take what it wants as a toll, it comes and goes comes and goes oh
Just like the afterglow I come and go
Oh I come and go

When it was me and you
You ran away at something new
Realized I had been used
Now trust is hard to do
Not only tonight give me tomorrow
The work is never done it’s the pill I have swallowed
So I will forgive I won’t take it personal
There always is a choice, I have made the choice
I choose joy
Joy
Thought you were a good idea
Knew I could not make it real
Try to force it make it work
Immediate crash and burn
Gotta leave tonight I can’t give tomorrow
Short term happiness can be long term sorrow
Hope you can forgive hope you find a real love
Whenever I lose track, it always brings me back
I choose joy
Joy
I choose joy
Joy
Another tall tale, too short to try it
When you hide behind a mask, I don’t buy it
Give me actions, not only words
When it’s time to stand, you’re in the dirt
I decide I decide
My soul is not for rent
I decide I decide
My dreams cannot be bent
I decide I decide
Ignore the noise
I decide I decide
I choose joy
All around me
Joy
I choose joy
Like a symphony
Joy
I choose joy
All I ever need
Joy
I choose joy
All I never need
Joy

When It's Right
05:09

I was sitting here thinking about you
When I was distracted by the promise of something new
The way you treated me it's a damn shame
'Cos even a fool knows I'm a prize to claim
Freedom has a high price
True love won’t make me roll the dice
When it’s right it’s right
We all know what that means
When it’s right it’s right
And I know by now swimmin' in a sea of change
Some people run and hide but I ride the wave
I take comfort in knowing this is fact’
Cos even when my chips are down baby I know I'll bounce back
Freedom has a high price
True love won’t make me roll the dice
When it’s right it’s right
We all know what that means
When it’s right it’s right
We all know what that means
When it’s right it’s right
I know who I am
I know what I’m here to do
Joy and faith resound
I won’t give up
Through my darkest nights
Like a light love guides me
Strength and hope surround I
Keep looking up
I know who I am
And I know what I am worth
I won’t compromise
When it’s right it’s right
We all know what that means
When it’s right it’s right
We all know what that means
When it’s right it’s right yeah
We all know what that means
When it’s right, it’s right

Just a beautiful jazzy rap album with buttery smooth flows versed with huge talent. It's not only lovely to the ears, but the lyrics are profound and empowering about the struggles that she faces.

My favorite artists are ones who aren't afraid to try something completely different. I hear Charles Stepney, David Axelrod's Earth Rot, Steve Reich, Penguin Cafe Orchestra and others in this, but it's undeniably Sault in the end. As usual, probably my favorite album of the year.
