I think the best thing about being James Brown is looking at my little son. Hopefully I can make my son a role model to a lot of people.

The Hardest Thing
we bothknow that i shouldn't be here
this is wrong
and baby it's killing me killing youboth of us tryin' to be strong
i've got somewhere else to be
promises to keep
someone else who loves me
and trusts me fast asleep
i've made up my mind
there's no turning back
she's been good to me
and she deserves better than that
it's the hardest thing
i'll ever have to do
to look you in the eye
and tell you i don't love you
it's the hardest thing
i'll ever have to lie
to show no emotion
when you start to cry
i can't let u see
what you mean to me when my hands are tied
and my hearts not free
we're not meant to be
it's the hardest thing
i'll ever have to do
to turn around and walk away
pretending i don't love you
i know that we'll meet again
fate has a place and time
so you can get on with your life
i've got to be cruel to be knd
like Dr. Zhivago
all my love i'll be sending
and you'll never know
'cause there can be no happy ending

Goodbye
Sometimes...
What may be the best thing for you to do
Sometimes it the hardest thing for you to do
And thats real
Cause I know that I love you
I know how I feel about you
But I also know that don't make everything alright
And for that reason
I gotta say goodbye
Tell me have you ever been in a
Situation where the best thing you could do
Is the hardest thing you've ever done
But you try to do whats right
And I know that deep down inside
That I really wanna be there by your side
But I can't stand to see you cry
Not when its because of me
And its over

Brown Baby

Brown baby
Brown baby
As you grow up
I want you to drink from the plenty cup
I want you to stand up
Tall and proud
I want you to speak up
Speak up clear and cloud
Brown baby
Brown baby
As years roll by
Walk with your head held high
I want you to live by
Live by the justice code
I want you to walk down
Walk down the freedom road
Brown baby
Brown baby
Now baby
Lie away
Lie away sleeping
Lie away here in my arms
While your mommy and daddy protect you
And keep you save from harm
Brown baby
Brown baby
It makes me so glad
That you will have things
Ive never had
When out of mens hearts
All the hate is hurled
Youre gonna live
Youre gonna live in a better world

The Hardest Part
And the hardest part
Was letting go not taking part
Was the hardest part
And the strangest thing
was waiting for that bell to ring
It was the strangest start
I could feel it go down
It is sweet I could taste in my mouth
Silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
I wish that I could work it out
And the hardest part
Was letting go not taking part
You really broke my heart
And I tried to sing
But I couldn't think of anything
That was the hardest part
I could feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth
You're silver lining the clouds
Oh and I
Oh and I
I wonder what it's all about
I wonder what it's all about
Everything I know is wrong
Everything I do just comes undone
And everything is torn apart
Oh and it's the hardest part
That's the hardest part
Yeah that's the hardest part
That's the hardest part

Don't Mention Memphis
Mister, you can take me into Little Rock
I'll buy the coffee and I'll fill your truck
I'll listen all night if you wanna talk
Just don't mention Memphis
We can talk about your family
Politics and music and philosophy
Any ol' subject's all right with me
Just don't mention Memphis
Or blue eyes
And light brown hair
An angel wavin' to me
From the top of the stairs
The hardest thing I did
Was leave her standing there
So don't mention Memphis
Pass me the thermos and I'll fill your cup
We'll make Texas with a little luck
And I'm hanging with you 'til the sun comes up
So don't mention Memphis
Or blue eyes
And light brown hair
An angel wavin' to me
From the top of the stairs
The hardest thing I did
Was leave her standing there
So don't mention Memphis

The Hardest Thing In The World
The hardest thing in the world
Holland it dont please
I never wanted to leave
Searching for a perfect day
It never happens that way
Ahey hey hey
Im sick and tired
Its so obscene
Will heaven help me be clean?
Searching for a perfect day
It never happens that way
Ahey hey hey
Cut away, I know no one wants you around
You never heard a word I said
Its seems simple to me
That if you knew you wouldnt say
It never happens that way
Ahey hey hey
And the impression I get
As the story unfurls
Is that youre the hardest thing in the world
Cut away, I know no one wants you around
What you feel might not be
It seems softer to me
I cannot climb to touch your spire
Im getting higher and higher
Cut away, I know no one wants you around
The hardest thing in the world

Genius Of Love
What you gonna do when you get out of jail?
Im gonna have some fun
What do you consider fun?
Fun, natural fun
Im in heaven
With my boyfriend, my laughing boyfriend
Theres no beginning and there is no end
Time isnt present in that dimention
Hell take my arm
When were walkin, rolling and rocking
Its one time Im glad Im not a man
Feels like Im dreaming, but Im not sleeping
Im in heaven
With the maven of funk mutation
Clintons musicians such as Bootsy Collins
Raise expectations to a new intention
No one can sing
Quite like Smokey, Smokey Robinson
Wailin and shakin to Bob Marley
Reggaes expanding with Sly and Robbie
All the weekend
Boyfriend was missing
I surely miss him
The way hed hold me in his warm arms
We went insane when we took cocaine.
Stepping in a rhythm to a Kurtis Blow
Who needs to think when your feet just go
With a hiditihi and a hipitiho
Who needs to think when your feet just go ...
Who needs to think when your feet just go ...
James Brown, James Brown
James Brown, James Brown
If you see him
Please remind him, unhappy boyfriend
Well hes the genius of love
Hes got a greater depth of feeling
Well hes the genius of love
Hes so deep.

Still We Rise
The White House Is Still White, Hmm! , really, must be a figment or someones migration working on their concentration, collaboration of devastation trying to be an infiltrator of motivation.
Why has racial discrimination become so tenement in the white house?
A man and the people behind him made a dream reality, Martin Luther King Jr said it better one day and that day, when President Obama moved into the white house.
The white house is still white so why fight people there are enough wars going on around the world, let President Obama do his job, he cannot appease all he has to regulate one thing at a time.

Hard Habit To Break
I guess I thought youd be here forever
Another illusion I chose to create
You dont know what ya got until its gone
And I found out just a little too late
I was acting as if you were lucky to have me
Doin you a favor I hardly knew you were there
But then you were gone and it was all wrong
Had no idea how much I cared
Chorus:
Now being without you
Takes a lot of getting used to
Should learn to live with it
But I dont want to
Living without you
Is all a big mistake
Instead of getting easier
Its the hardest thing to take
Im addicted to ya babe
Youre a hard habit to break
You found someone else you had every reason
You know I cant blame you for runnin to him
Two people together but living alone
I was spreading my love too thin
After all of these years
Im still tryin to shake it
Doin much better they say that it just takes time
But deep in the night its an endless flight
I cant get ya out of my mind
Chorus
2nd chorus:
Being without you
Takes a lot of getting used to
Should learn to live with it
I dont want to
Being without you
Is all a big mistake
Instead of getting any easier
Its the hardest thing to take
Im addicted to you
Youre a hard habit to break

Sadder Still
sadder still, sadder still, sadder still
you watch it die
betrayal of the heart
is the hardest part of letting go
now you see the truth of me
so what's the point? it's so cold
time will take your soul
time will take your dream
time will take your life away
away
fading lights
shattered dreams
of lost love
i remember the past
betrayal of the heart
is the hardest thing to let go
so now i don't dream
no, i don't feel
anything at all, anymore
time will take your soul

Brown Skin
Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends
Brown skin, up against my brown skin
Need some every now and thenoh hey
Where are your people from? maybe mississippi or an island
Apparently your skin has been kissed by the sun
You make me want a hersheys kiss, your licorice
Every time I see your lips, it makes me think of honey-coated chocolate
Your kisses are worth more than gold to me
Ill be your almond joy, youll be my sugar daddy
Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends
Brown skin, up against my brown skin
Need some every now and thenoh hey
Every time you come around, something magnetic pulls me and I cant get out
Disoriented, I cant tell my up from down
All I know is that I wanna lay you down
Every time I let you in, abracadabra magic happens as we swim
Higher and higher finally we reach heaven
Come back to earth and then we do it all again
Yeah..
Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends
Brown skin, up against my brown skin
Need some every now and thenoh hey
Skin so brown, lips so round
Baby how can I be down?
Beautiful mahogany, you make me feel like a queen
Tell me whats that thing you do that makes me wanna get next to you, yeah
Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends
Brown skin, up against my brown skin
Need some every now and thenoh hey
Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin
I cant tell where yours begins, I cant tell where mine ends
Brown skin, up against my brown skin
Need some every now and thenoh hey

One More Sad Song
One boy, one girl, two hearts, their world
Time goes by, secrets rise
One more, sad song, tears shed, shes gone
Shed take it back, if she only could
All the perfect words they seem so wrong,
Shes gone
You wish that you could learn to see,
The door is closed and yo wish you could be
Alone with you, alone with me
What can I do, I can not breath
My heart is torn, for all to see
Alone with you, alone with me.
Best friend, worst thing, shes been, cheating
Friend deceives, she leaves
Last date. she cries, whispers, goodbye
She walks once more, out that door
Please stay, dont go away
The hardest thing is letting go of you
Stay, dont go away
The hardest thing is letting go of you
What can I do?
Alone with you, alone with me, what can I do
I can not see, alone with, alone with...

Learning To Fly
Well I started out down a dirty r oad
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
The town lit up the world got still
Im learning to fly but I aint got wings
Comin down is the hardest thing
Well the good old days may not return
And the rocks might melt, and the sea may burn
Im learning to fly but I aint got wings
Comin down is the hardest thing
Well some say life will beat you down
Break your heart, steal your crown
So I started out for God kno ws where
But I guess Ill know when I get there
Im learning to fly around the clouds
But what goes up must come down
Im learning to fly but I aint got wings
Comin down is the hardest thing
Im learning to fly around the clouds
But what goes up must come down
Im learning to fly
Im learning to fly

After School (Villanelles)
Don’t think that school’s the hardest time in life.
You will graduate soon but don’t forget.
Believe, Believe do not end it in strife.
Some people will deal with it with a knife,
Because they are scared to try to forget.
Don’t think that school’s the hardest time in life.
Others might get rich and have a good life,
But it could end up in a huge regret.
Believe, Believe do not end it in strife.
Few may stay single in Gods way of life,
They will find happiness they won’t forget
Don’t think that school’s the hardest time in life.
Most have a fine job and a loving wife.
Someone to go home to and be a set
Believe, Believe do not end it in strife.
For you who don’t take the bad way in life,
Will be happy and never have regret.
Don’t think that school’s the hardest time in life.
Believe, Believe do not end it in strife.
