lyrics

I've been misled, and I've been afraid
I've been hit in the head and left for dead
I've abused, and I've been accused
I've been refused a piece of bread
But I ain't Never in my life before
Seen so many love affairs go wrong as I do today
So I want you to Stop-- Find Out What's Wrong
And get it Right, or Just Leave Love Alone
Because the Love that you save today
May very well be your own

I've been pushed around, and I've been lost and found
I've been given til sundown to get out of town
I've been taken outside, and I've been brutalized
And I always had to be the one to smile and apologize
But I ain't Never in my life before
Seen so many love affairs go wrong as I do today
So I want you to Stop-- Find Out What's Wrong
And get it Right, or Just Leave Love Alone
Because the Love that you save today
May very well be your own

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. zhangtastic
