Battle

There’s no battle here in my words,
no latest rhymes, No grooves unheard,
no styles from the latest magazines,
No E camera on the scene
Just living life warm and serene,
when afro’s made a statement,
and a real men meant it, when he loved you,

It’s the same old story,
love lost and found, not for me
Not this time around,
old enough to know better,
Life is to short for my heart not to be forever

Hunger is real, I’ve seen it up close,
hands out begging, nothing could be worse,
but change is coming starting with your smile,
there's hope in heart, hold on tight,
we’ll never be apart

So save the battle for the front line,
when the man is calling,
Step up to the plate, look me in the face,
and don’t hesitate

This moment is for real,
second chances don’t take place
It’s the same old story, love lost and found,
not for me, not this time around,
old enough to know better,
Life is to short for my heart not to be forever

So hold me close, don’t let go,
we’re singing revolution,
and no one’s gonna show
Touch me now, touch me warm,
say you’ll come home
Right where you belong
