The morning rises on her, and sets beside her feet
Cool as ice around her, but fire underneath
The world you see before you was birthed inside her womb
The mother of creation. ya say ya wonder who
She's the Mack, Mack Diva, Diva
She's Mack, Mack Diva, Diva
She'll nurture you from conception
Sustain you with h.er breast
She'll do you like a mission
Her Sunday morning best
Can cure you in an instant of all your sundry ills
Or kill you at a distance. if only looks could kill
She's the Mack, Mack Diva, Diva
She's Mack, Mack Diva, Diva
She's your courage and your back
Your peacе in the night
Who's more invisible and plain outta sight?
Isis to your Osiris, Bonniе to your Clyde
Who's forever there, cleaning up your blood-stained life
She's the Mack, Mack Diva, Diva
She's Mack, Mack Diva, Diva
She's the Mack, Mack Diva, Diva
She's Mack, Mack Diva, Diva

[Chorus]
Right or wrong we just go on and on
Keep flowing, Chocolate
Blood to blood, giving nothin' but love
Keep flowing, Chocolate
Deep 'n dark 'n brown, my peeps are all so down
Boney caramel and gold
Props to every color of our Chocolate rainbow
So if you're glad to be you give it up
Sing it bayeeod, sing it bayeeod
And if you always stay true, get 'em up
Swing 'em bayeeod, I'm always there for you
[Chorus]
Right or wrong we just go on and on
Keep flowing, Chocolate
Blood to blood, giving nothin' but love
Keep flowing, Chocolate
With such diversity and style
Anything we put our minds to we would have it in a while
And when a man has a dream and calls
My brothers come together proudly
And stand a million strong
So if you're glad to be you give it up
Sing it bayeeod, sing it bayeeod
And if you always stay true, get 'em up
Swing 'em bayeeod, it's timе to show and prove
[Chorus]
Right or wrong we just go on and on
Keep flowing, Chocolate
Blood to blood, giving nothin' but lovе
Keep flowing, Chocolate

Rise
04:35
|

|
And up a rickety stair she wonders
Why if at all she should care
And with her pay for the week already gone
What can she say but where
Her keys get stuck, ain't it just her luck?
The walls keep closing in
And there her son with innocent eyes
She’ll never quit, she knows she's got to rise
[Chorus]
Rise up, rise up, rise up (she knows she's got to)
Rise up, rise up, rise up (c’mon, c'mon, c'mon)
Ain't Mr. Washington bad?
Howard made man al the top of his class
With seven years on the job day in and out you'd really think
He'd break that ceiling of glass
Oh no, not now, not here
Sometime maybe next year
Let the clock strike five
Now he's really alive
He'll do his own thang
Finally, maybe he’ll rise
[Chorus]
Rise up, rise up, rise up (he’ll do his own thang)
Rise up, rise up, rise up (finally maybe he'll rise)
Rise up, rise up, rise up (you know you can)
Rise up, rise up, rise up (and on a personal note)
I remember the day I met him
Handsome solid as stone
Loved the conversation
Especially the private part
’Bout how well he could bone
Born on the sign of Aries the Ram
I knew this brother could slam
But silky smooth sweet nothings became nothing but lies
'Cause back at home, boyfriend could not rise!

Don't Bring Me Down
05:29
|
|||
|
l'd like to kiss the sky
l say that l can fly
Don't bring me down
If I'd like to cross the ocean wearing just desire and lotion
Don't bring me down
Don't, don't, don't bring me down
Don't, don't, don't bring me down
If I only had one wish and I spent it on one kiss with you
Would you think that was silly
If I'm naked in your presence
Could you take me to heaven
Would you please go down
Don't, don't, don't bring me down
Don't, don't, don't bring me down
And alter that first night I knew
And the next time I thought you felt it too
And that other night I lost myself
After I gave it to you
Please don't say there's someone else
Shhh, don't say it, don't say it
Shhh don't wanna hear about it
Shhh don't say it please don't
Shhh let me have you even if I can't have you
II I'd planned to love you deeply
Spending every moment sweetly
Don't bring me down
If I vow to you forever
Please don't take away my pleasure
Don't bring me down
Don't, don't, don't bring me down
Don't, don't, don't bring me down

Knocked Up & Locked Down
05:59
|
|||
|
Spinning in circles, alone at heart again
Dancing with shadows waiting for you to come in
Don't know nothing, don't know shit
But I know if you were here with me, I'd know it all again
There you were, a vision from the suburbs of my mind
Just when my light of hope was burning dim
You came sent shivers up my spine
Knocked me up and ya locked me down
(my honey loves me so)
Knocked me up and ya locked me down
(the baby's startin' to show)
Knocked me up and ya locked me down
(he wants me for his own, he said he did)
Knocked me up and ya locked me down
(a family and a home)
Where did the time go our baby's turning three
Wish you were here more, but I understand you're so busy
I know it's hard baby, don't mean to bore ya
But if you would love me like you used to
L'd understand ya more
Here we are, strangers
Sharing nothing but a bed sometimes
Although my light of hope is burning dim
I love ya, and need ya, and still do anything
Knocked me up and locked me down
(I'm so in love with you)
Knocked me up and locked me down
(baby number two)
Knocked me up and locked me down
(there goes your beeper)
Knocked me up and locked me down
(what do you see in her?)
Spinning in circles, alone at heart again
Dancing with shadows waiting for you to come in
No longer blinded by my love, I see everything
But if you would walk through that door right now
I'd lose my sight again
I lay for you in my sexy lingerie and cry
And when the darkness falls across the sky
I pray that you would die
Knocked me up and locked me down
(I haven't seen you for some years)
Knocked me up and locked me down
(I'm left with babies, bills and tears)
Knocked me up and locked me down
(I'm feelin' kinda drained)
Knocked me up and locked me down
(I'll let my sorrows rain)
Knocked me up and locked me down
(Rain, rain, rain down)

L'm saying, to be with me you're gonna have to come correctly
Can't be wasting my time with these wanna-bees
The next time l fall he's gonna have more on the ball
Than what he's got between his b***
You know what mean
I'm waiting for that openness
Someone to treat me with respect
And love me as he loves himself
Is that you ooh baby
I'll try again
But before you love me
Be my friend, be my brother, be my confidante
To be my man, you gotta come with MPH!
MPH! Ay, I'm looking for a brother with MPH!
Enough to handle me, MPH!
Enough MPH!
Ay, pretty baby, tell me, can you get with me mentally MPH?
Enough MPH!
Don't treat me like no stepchild
Don't beat me like your child
Don't, beep me with no nonsense
Make it worth my while
There's a new invention
It's called conversation
I need constant stimulation
Tickle my mind, mmm daddy
L'm waiting for that openness
Someone to treat me with respect
And love me as he loves himself
Ls that you?
Ooh baby, I'll try again, but before you love me
Be my friend, be my brother, be my confidante
To be my man I need MPH!
MPH! Ay, I'm looking for a brother with MPH!
Enough to handle me. MPH!
Enough MPH!
Ay, pretty baby tell me can you get with me mentally. MPH?
Enough MPH!

Damn you look good
How'd I let that get away?
Well I'm not gonna make the same mistake twice
So um, let's do this now
Gone gone gone gone gone gone gone...
Why oh why do we let love go by, my heart cries
Out for light and understanding
The right vibe and you know it and the right size
Mmm like I like 'em, tall, dark, and fine
I waited for so long for you to come along
Then I sent you away, said I needed time to play
They say all is fair in love
But I miss you, babe
Since you been gone
Since you been gonе
I've been waiting for someone likе you to appear
I've been waiting for what feels like a hundred years
Ooh baby since you been gone
Since you been gone
No one's in it with such gentleness and finesse
No one's giving such sweet loving and tenderness
Since you been gone
You never know what you've got until it's gone
And those that are lucky have second chances
Don't let it go again
Hold him tight keep the loving coming do him right
Girlfriend just talk to him he's more than your lover
He's your friend
I waited for so long for you to come along
Then I sent you away said I needed time to play
They say all is fair in love
But l miss you baby
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
I've been waiting for someone like you to appear
I've been waiting for what feels like a hundred years
Ooh baby since you been gone
Since you been gone
No one's in it with such gentleness and finesse
No one's giving such sweet loving and tenderness
Since you been gone
Guess I can admit I went through a crazy phase
But I thought I needed a little lime and space
Oh oh baby since you been gone
I just lay awake crying all through the night
'cause no other can enter this heart of mine like you do
Since you been gone
Gone.. gone... gone.. gone..
Since you been gone
I've been waiting for someone like you to appear
I've been waiting for what feels like a hundred years
Ooh baby since you been gone
Since you been gone
Guess I can admit I went through a crazy phase
But I thought I needed a little time and space
Ooh baby since you been gone
I just lay awake crying all through the night
'Cause no other can enter this heart of mine like you did
Since you been gone

My baby's all I'II ever need in my life
And I'll do anything, anytime, anyplace
To keep him by my side, so listen, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey!

Come into my world, come right to your girl
L recognize you as the end of a lonely search
Chocolate butter sweet lips to mine make me weak
You can come anytime and more than once for me
'Cause you're the only man I need
And I can be everything you dream

And make you come over and over
'Cause you're the only man l need, and I can be everything
Everything you need..

Wet
06:13
|

|
Looks like it's gonna be one of those days
You know the kind
Gray, a little cool, but my favorite part about it is
Wet very wet
How wet will it get?
Let it soak me down
Wash the tension out of me
Wet, very wet
How wet can it get?
Let it all flow down
Like a river to a sea
Moisture on my skin, body tingling
Wet kisses everywhere, please don't ever end
Electric energy fire inside of me
It's how you make me feel so real
When you rain all over me
I know it may sound strange
I can't explain
I get a rush whenever it rains
It heightens my emotions
Rain all day, rainy night
It's never too much
Wetness outside or inside
'Cause I'm an ocean
I love it when it's
Wet, very wet
How wet can it get?
Let it soak me down
Wash the tension out of me
Wet, very wet
How wet can it get?
Let it flow down
Like a river to a sea
Everybody runs 'til the rain is done
Like a song that I heard by brother Ayers
Everybody loves the sun
Oh. I'm kinda different and your rain is heaven sent
Pour all over me and give me what I'm missing
It may sound strange. I can't explain
I get a rush whenever it rains
It heightens my emotions
Rain all day, rainy night
It's never too much
Wetness outside and inside
'Cause I'm an ocean
I love it when it's
Wet, very wet...

Lonely in a Crowded Room
05:16
|
|||
|
Out of the corner of my eye I see you
Sexy lurking in a shadow of the room
I try to disguise what I'm feeling in vain
I'm crazy for ya baby and I don't know what to do
I'm lonely in a crowded room
'Cause all I wanna see is you, you got me
Lonely in a crowded room
'Cause what l wanna be is with you
And so I contemplate my move maybe
I'II say something to you to put you in the mood
And so I gather all my nerve, baby, but where are you?
You're gone
You left me
Lonely in a crowd, lonely in a crowd
Lonely in a crowded room
Lonely in a crowd, lonely in a crowd
I was so scared of losing you that l lost you
Lonely in a crowded room
'Cause all I wanna see is you
You got me
Lonеly in a crowded room
'Cause all I wanna be is nеxt to you
Lonely in a crowd, lonely in a crowd
Lonely in a crowded room
Lonely in a crowd, lonely in a crowd
I was so scared that you walked away
I lost the one that could have been my baby

Can't Live Without You
04:31
|
|||
|
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Why are some of us prosperous without a care?
Why are others of us desperate and in despair?
Why are good lives taken while others seem so cruel and cold?
Why are babies starving for someone to hold?
In a world so demanding, how l hunger for truth
But not understanding has not destroyed my faith in you
L can't
Can't live without you
You're the one that l adore
Can't live without you
I love you sweeter than the day before
Why are sisters showing more and thinking less
Why are brothers fighting over stupidness
Why are creatures hunted only for the skin they're in
Why such anger directed at the skin I'm in
Who knows the reasons we do what we do
But as time gives us seasons, l freely give myself to you
I can't live
Can't live without you
You're the one that l adore
Can't live without you
I love you sweeter than the day before
Can't live without you
Everyday l feel your blessedness
Can't live without you
How can anyone say you don't exist
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Every breath of air, every thought I'm now aware
Exists because you put it there
Everyday I see
I've come to believe is another chance to be closer to thee
Who knows the reasons we do what we do
But as time gives us seasons, l freely give myself to you
I can't live
Can't live without you
You're the one that l adore
Can't live without you
I love you sweeter than the day before
Can't live without you
Everyday l feel your blessedness
Can't live without you
How can anyone say you don't exist
Ooh, ooh, ooh
