lauryn hill - killing me softly
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly, with his song
I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him, and listen for a while
And there he was, this young boy, a stranger to my eyes
(repeat chorus)
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters, and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on
(rpt chorus)
He sang as if he knew me, and all my dark despair
He kept on looking right through me as if I wasn't there
And then he kept on singing, singing clear and strong
(repeat chorus till fade)
lauryn hill - doo wop
Chorus one:
Girls you know you betta watch out
Some guys, some guys are only about
That thing, that thing, that thing
That thing, that thing, that thing
(admit two shots in the atmosphere)
It's been three weeks since you were looking for your friend
The one you let hit it and never called you again
'Member when he told you he was da benjamins
You act like you ain't here him but give up a little trim
To begin how you think you really gon' pretend
Like you wasn't down and you called him again
Plus when you give it up so easy you ain't even foolin' him
If you did then you'd probably do it again
Talkin' out cha neck like you a Christain
A Muslim sleepin' wit da gin
Now that was the sin that did Jezebell in
Who you gon' tell when the reprecussion spin
Showin' off your ass cause your thinkin' it's a trend
Girlfriend, let me break it down for you again
You know I only say it cause i'm truely genuine
Don't be a hard rock when you really are a gem
Baby girl the respect is just the minimum
Nigga creepin' when you still defendin' him
Now Lauryn is only human
Don't think I haven't been through the same predicament
Let it sit inside your head like a million women
It's silly when girls sell their souls cause it's in
Look at where you been, hair weaves like your in pins
Fake nails up out Korea Come again
When when come again
When when come again
My friend come again
Chorus two:
Guys you know you betta watch out
Some girls, some girls are only about
That thing, that thing, that thing
That thing, that thing, that thing
The second verse it dedicated to the men
Who are concerned wit his rims & his tim's & his women
Him and his men come in the club like hooligans
Don't care who date ya friend .........
Let's stop pretend the one that pissed out by they waste men
Pissed out by they case men, still the name of this basement
The pretty face men claiming that they do .....me
Need to take care of their three and four kids
But they facing court case when the child support place
Money takin' and heart break,
Now you wonderin' why women hate men
And to speak of silent men, the violence men
Quick to shot the scene, stop actin' like boys and be men
How you gon' win when you ain't right within
How you gon' win when you ain't right within
How you gon' win when you ain't right within
Uh Uh Come Again!
Watch out, watch out
Watch out, watch out
(three more times)
(Chorus one then chorus two)
lauryn hill - can t take my eyes off of you
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank god I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes of you
Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The thought of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
But if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
I need you baby, and if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm my lonely night
I love you baby
Trust in me when I say "it's OK"
Oh pretty baby,
Don't let me down, I pray
Oh pretty baby,
Now that I found you
Stay
And let me love you
Oh baby let me love you, oh baby
lauryn hill - turn your lights down low
Bob Marley & Lauryn Hill
Turn your lights down low
And pull your window curtain
Oh let the moon come shining in
Into our life again
Saying ooh, it´s been a long, long time
(Long, long time)
I got this message for you girl
But it seems I was never on time
Did I wanna get through to you girl?
On time, on time (word)
I want to give you some love
I want to give you some good, good loving
(Uh, uh, right, uh)

I wanna give you some good, good loving (yeah uh-uh)
Loving you is a like a song I replay
Every three minutes and thirty seconds of every day (uh, uh)
And every chorus was written for us to recite (right)
Every beautiful melody of devotion every night
It´s potion like this ocean that might carry me
In a wave of emotion to ask you to marry me
And every word, every second, and every third
Expresses the happiness more clearly than ever heard (uh)
And when I play them, every chord is a poem Telling the Lord how grateful I am cause I know him (what? word)
The harmonies possess a sensation similar to your caress (uh)
If you´re asking then I´m telling you it´s yes
Stand in love, take my hand in love, God bless (right)
I want to give you some good, good loving
I want to give you some love
I want to give you some good, good loving
Oh I, oh I, oh I
I wanna give you some good, good loving
Good, good, good loving
(I wanna give you some good loving
lauryn hill - everything is everything
Everything Is Everything
Everything is everything
What is meant to be, will be
After winter, must come spring
Change, it comes eventually
(2x)
I wrote these words for everyone
Who struggles in their youth
Who won't accept deception
Instead of what is truth
It seems we lose the game,
Before we even start to play
Who made these rules? We're so confused
Easily led astray
Let me tell ya that
Everything is everything
Everything is everything
After winter, must come spring
Everything is everything
I philosophy
Possibly speak tongues
Beat drum, Abyssinian, street Baptist
Rap this in fine linen
From the beginning
My practice extending across the atlas
I begat this
Flippin' in the ghetto on a dirty mattress
You can't match this rapper / actress
More powerful than two Cleopatras
Bomb graffiti on the tomb of Nefertiti
MCs ain't ready to take it to the Serengeti
My rhymes is heavy like the mind of Sister Betty
L. Boogie spars with stars and constellations
Then came down for a little conversation
Adjacent to the king, fear no human being
Roll with cherubims to Nassau Coliseum
Now hear this mixture
Where hip hop meets scripture
Develop a negative into a positive picture
Now, everything is everything
What is meant to be, will be
After winter, must come spring
Change, it comes eventually
Sometimes it seems
We'll touch that dream
But things come slow or not at all
And the ones on top, won't make it stop
So convinced that they might fall
Let's love ourselves then we can't fail
To make a better situation
Tomorrow, our seeds will grow
All we need is dedication
Let me tell ya that,
Everything is everything
Everything is everything
After winter, must come spring
Everything is everything
Everything is everything
What is meant to be, will be
After winter, must come spring
Change, it comes eventually
lauryn hill - i love you baby
You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.

I wanna hold you so much.
At long last love has arrived.
And i thank god i'm alive.
You're just too good to be true.

(Chorus:)

lauryn hill - to zion
Unsure of what the balance held
i touched my belly overwhelmed
by what i had been chosen to perform
but then an angel came on day
told me to kneel down and pray
for unto me a man child would be born
woe this crazy circumstance
i knew his life deserved a chance
but everybody told me to be smart
look at your career they said
"Lauryn baby use your head"
but instead i choose to use my heart
Now the joy of my world is in Zion
now the joy of my world is in Zion
how beautiful if nothing more
than to wait at Zion's door
i've never been in love like this before
now let me pray to keep you from
the perils that surely come
see life for you my prince has just begun
and i thank you for choosing me
to come through unto life to be
a beautiful reflection of his grace
see I know that a gift so great
is only one god could create and
i'm reminded everytime i see your face
that the joy of my world is in Zion
now the joy of my world is in Zion
marching marching marching, Zion
marching marching
marching marching marching to Zion
beautiful beautiful Zion.

lauryn hill - ex factor
It could all be so simple
but you'd rather make it hard
loving you is like a battle
and we both end up with scars
tell me, who i have to be
to get some reciprocity
no one loves you more than me
and no one ever will
is it just a silly game
that forces you to act this way
forces you to scream my name
then pretend that you can't stay
tell me, who i have to be
to get some reciprocity
See no one loves you more than me and no one ever will.
No matter how i think we grow
you always seem to let me know
it ain't workin'
it ain't workin'
and when i try to walk away
you hurt yourself to make me stay
this is crazy
this is crazy
i keep letting you back in
how can i explain myself
as painful as this thing has been
i just can't be with no one else
see i know what we have got to do
you let go and i'll let go too
cause no one's hurt me more than you
and no one ever will
No matter how I think we grow
you always seem to let me know
it ain't workin'
it ain't workin'
And when i try to walk away
you hurt yourself to make me stay
This is crazy
This is crazy
Oh this is crazy
care for me, care for me
i know you care for me
there for me there for me
said you'd be there for me
cry for me cry for me
you said you'd die for me
give to me give to me
why don't you live for me.
(Repeat to fade)
lauryn hill - i gotta find peace of mind
Peace of Mind
I gotta find peace of mind
I know another cord...
I gotta find peace of mind
See, this what that voice in your head says
When you try to get peace of mind...
I gotta find peace of mind, I gotta find peace of mind
He says it's impossible, but I know it's possible
He says it's impossible, but I know it's possible
He says there's no me without him, please help me forget about him
He takes all my energy, trapped in my memory
Constantly holding me, constantly holding me
I need to tell you all, all the pain he's caused, mmmm
I need to tell I'm, I'm undone because, mmmm
He says it's impossible, but I know it's possible
He says it's impossible without him, but I know it's possible
To finally be in love, and know the real meaning of
A lasting relationship, not based on ownership
I trust every part of you, cuz all that I... All that you say you do
You love me despite myself, sometimes I fight myself
I just can't believe that you, would have anything to do
With someone so insecure, someone so immature
Oh you inspire me, to be the higher me
You made my desire pure, you made my desire pure
Just tell me what to say, I can't find the words to say
Please don't be mad with me, I have no identity
All that I've known is gone, all I was building on
I don't wanna walk with you, how do I talk to you
Touch my mouth with your hands, touch my mouth with your hands
Oh I wanna understand, the meaning of your embrace
I know now I have to face, the temptations of my past
Please don't let me disgrace, where my devotion lays
Now that I know the truth, now that it's no excuse
Keeping me from your love, what was I thinking of?
Holding me from your love, what was I thinking of?
You are my peace of mind, that old me is left behind
You are my peace of mind, that old me is left behind
He says it's impossible, but I know it's possible
He says it's improbable, but I know it's tangeable
He says it's not grabbable, but I know it's haveable
Cuz anything's possible, oh anything is possible
Please come free my mind, please come meet my mind
Can you see my mind, oh
Won't you come free my mind?
Oh I know it's possible
Anything, anything, anything, anything, anything, yeeey
Anything, anything, anything, anything, yeeey
Anything, anything, anything, anything, anything, yeeey
Oh free! Free, free, free your mind
Free, free your mind... free, free your mind
Free, free, free, free your mind
Oh, it's so possible, oh it's so possible
I'm telling you it's possible, I'm telling you it's possible
Free, free... free, free... free, free... get free now
Free, free... free, free, free, free... free, free
You're my peace of mind, that old me is left behind
You're my peace of mind, you're my peace of mind
He's my peace of mind, he's my peace of mind
He's my peace of mind, he's my peace of mind
What a joy it is to be alive
To get another chance, yeah
Everyday's another chance
To get it right this time
Everyday's another chance
Oh what a merciful, merciful, merciful God
Oh what a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful God
lauryn hill - final hour
I treat this like my thesis
Well-written topic
Broken down into pieces
I introduce them produce
Words so profuse
It's abuse how I juice up this beat
Like I'm deuce
Two people both equal
Like I'm Gemini
Rather simeon
If I Jimmy on this lock I could pop it
You can't stop it
Drop it
Your whole crew's microscopic
Like particles while I make international articles
And on the cover
Don't discuss the baby mother business
I been in this third LP you can't tell me, I witness
First handed I'm candid
You can't stand it
Respect demanded
And get flown around the planet
Rock Hard like granite or steel
People feel Lauryn Hill from New-Ark to Israel
And this is real
So I keep makin' the street's ballads
While you lookin' for dressin' to go with your tossed salad
You could get the money
You could get the power
But keep your eyes on the final hour
I'm about to change the focus
From the richest to the brokest
I wrote this opus
To reserve the hypnosis
Whoever's closest
To the line's gonna win it
You gonna fall tryin' to ball
While my tream win the pennant
I'm about to be in it
For a minute
Then run for senate
Make a slum lord to be the tenat
Give his money to kids to spend it
And then amend it
Every law that ever prevented
Our survival since our arrival
Documented in The Bible
Like Moses and Aaron
Things gon change, it's apparent
And all the transparent gonna
Be seen through
Let God redeem you
Keep your deen true
Watch out what you cling to
You can get the green too
Observe how a queen do
And I remain calm readin' the 73 Psalm
'Cause wit all this on I got the world in
You could get the money
You could get the power
But keep your eyes on the final hour
You could get the money
You could get the power
But keep your eyes on the final hour
Now I be breakin' bread sippin'
Manichevitz wine
Pay no mint party like it's 1999
But when it comes down to ground beef like Palestine
Say your rhymes, let's see if that get you out your bend
Now I'm a get the mozzarella like a Rockerfeller
Still be int he chruch of Lalibela
Whether posed in Maribella in Coutore
Or collectin' residuals from off 'The Score'
I'm makin' sure
I'm with the 144
I've been here before this ain't a battle this is war
Word to Boonie
I makes a lot like a Sunni
Get diplomatic immunity in every ghetto community
Had opportunity went from
Hoodshock to Hood-chic
But it ain't what you cop
It's about what you keep
And even if there are leaks
You can't capsize this ship
'Cause I baptize my lips every time I take a sip
You could get the money
You could get the power
But keep your eyes on the final hour
lauryn hill - adam lives in theory
Adam Lives In Theory
Adam lives in theory trying to turn stone into bread, masquerading like he's got it figured out
Cut off from the sunshine only smart in his own head
Leaving his descendents to hope in doubt
Left to his devices, those worthless sacrifices, praying to the altar of his self
Making pilgrimages thinking he's religious, like he's got all the light and no one else
He takes the unsuspected 'cause he knows they're not connected, and he shows them how to be just as he is
Virtually real and commercially appeal to the lust of all the people where he lives
Eve was so naïve, blinded by the pride and greed, wanting to be intellectual
Drifting from the way she got turned out one day and now she thinks that she's bisexual
Caught up in emotion, burning up in her devotion to the king of exploitation in the field
She handed him her virtue, 'cause he told her 'I won't hurt you,' so she laid with him to see how good it feels
Now can you tell me what, what we gonna do now, where we gonna go now, what we gonna say now ,
now can you tell me what, what we gonna do now, where we gonna go now, what we gonna say now?
Now after the sensation and the empty fornication she brought infection home into her bed
Quickly multiplying, now the three of them are dying by the poison she perceived to be good head
Now Eve and her husband are perverted in their judgment 'cause everything appeared to be the same
They entertained suggestions,'next time just use protection'
Desiring to cover up their shame
But much to their demise poor decision closed their eyes to the very antidote to their dilemma
Burning in their lust, both of them adulterous, destroying the original agenda, praying to the sky in order to maintain a lie
They exhausted every possible conclusion
They can't even entertain the solution in a brain filled with vain information and pollution
Hiding from the truth, he provided an excuse to explain away his desperate situation
When confronted blamed his wife, giving birth to carnal life, refusing to acknowledge what he'd done
Now, if we can't agree with who created us to be who says we're guilty everyone before his eyes
Making no exception since the day of our conception, predisposed to hating truth and loving lies
Then can you tell me what, what we gonna do now, where we gonna go now, what we gonna say now?
Then can you tell me what, what we gonna do now, where we gonna go now, what we gonna say now?
Stop walking in pride, let the thief be crucified, unlearn everything you know and let Him teach you
Line upon line and precept upon precept
Say goodbye to this decaying social system
He wants to know how far we're willing to go, if we love Him like we say we do, He'll try us
Just you don't regress or slip into hopelessness
Once He's satisfied it's love He won't deny us
And then He'll tell us what, what we gonna do now, where we gonna go now, what we gonna say now?
He'll tell us what, what we gonna do now, where we gonna go now, what we gonna say now?
lauryn hill - i get out
I Get Out
I get out
I get out of all your boxes
Il get out, you can't hold me in these chains
I get out
Father free me from this bondage
Knowing my condition is the reason I must change
Your stinking resolution is no type of solution
Preventing me from freedom
Maintaining your pollution
I won't support your lie no more
I won't even try no more
Oh If I have to die oh lord that's how I choose to live
I won't be compromised no more
I can't be victimized no more
I just don't sympathize no more
Cause now I understand you just want to use me
You say love, then abuse me
You never thought you'd lose me
But how quickly we forget
That nothing is for certain
You thought I'd stay here hurtin
Your guilt trips just not working
Repressing me to death
Cause now I'm choosing life yo
I'll take the sacrifice yo
If everything must go then go
That's how I chose to live
No more comprises
I see past your disguises
Blinding me through mind control
Stealing my eternal soul
Appealing through material
Oh just to keep me as your slave
But I get out, oh I get out of all of your boxes I get out
Oh you can't hold me in these chains, I'll get out
Of this social pergutory
Knowing my condition is the reason I must change
See what you see is what you get
And oh, you ain't seen nothing yet
Oh, I don't care if you're upset
I could care less if you're upset
see it don't change the truth
And your hurt feelings no excuse
To keep me in this box
Psychological locks
Repressing true expression
Cementing this repression
Promoting mass deception
So that no one can be healed
I don't respect your system
I won't protect your system
When you talk I don't listen
Oh let my Fathers will be done
And just get out,
Oh just get out of all this bondage
Just get out, oh you can't hold me in these chains
Just get out
These traditions killing freedom
Knowing my condition is the reason I must change
I just accepted what you said
Keeping me amongst the dead
The only way to know
Is to walk then learn then grow
But faith is not your speed
You'd have everyone believe
That you're the sole authority
Just follow the majority
Afraid to face reality
This system is a joke
You'd be smart to save your soul
And escape this mind control
You spend your life in sacrifice
To a system for the dead
Where's the passion in this living
Are you sure it's God you're serving
Obligated to a system
Getting less than you're deserving
Who made up these rules I say
Who made up these schools I say
Animal conditioning just to keep you as a slave
Oh just get out of this social purgatory
Just get out
These traditions are a lie- just get out
Superstition killing freedom,
knowing my condition is the reason I must die
Just get out, just get out, just get out, lets get out, lets get out,
Knowing my condition is the reason I must die.
lauryn hill - just want you around
I Just Want You Around
I just want you around? I just want you around?
I just want you around? I just want you around?
When I thought that I had lost you, I could hardly make a sound?
When I thought I couldn't hold you, I knew the world had let me down
Should've took the time and told you, you keep my feet on the ground
I hope that you can hear me, 'cause I know it's not profound?
I just want you around?I just need you around?
When I thought I was without you,
I got used to being down it was my fault I used to doubt you,
but that ain't me next time around
Please believe me when I tell you, 'cause all my words are bound
This is my cross now let me bear it
I was lost but now I've found, found, found?
I just want you around? I just need you around?
I just want you around? I just need you around?
Took this love for granted, kept my feelings underground
Should've watered what I planted, should've known what I had found
I'm not used to being lonely, I don't like the way it sounds
You're the only one I know yeah, who don't turn my up side down?
I just want you around? I just need you around?
I just want you around? I just need you around?
I just want you around? I just need you around?
I just want you around? I just need you around?
I just want you around, I just want you around,
I just need you around, I just want my man around,
I just want you around, I just need you around,
I just want you around, I just want you around,
I just want you around, I just want you around,
just want you around?

Lauryn:
Oh Pirates yes they rob I
Stole I from the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Allmighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly
Won't you help to sing
these songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption Songs (x3)
Ziggy & Lauryn:
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets

But we've got to fulfill the book
Won't you help us sing
Another song of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption Song (x3)
Lauryn:
Yo, If they can stop this fruit
They would pop this route
Chop this fruit
Treat us like a prostitute
Knock this youth
See me in my cocky suit
God's recruit
From fallin even God's salute
Tribal truth
Ja people can't be mute
Share my youth to Babylon can't regroup
Sing, to Babylon can't regroup
Sing, to Babylon can't regroup
Lauryn & Ziggy:
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the book
Won't you help to sing
Another song of freedom, yeah
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption song (x 5)
