Temporarily!
Too little too late to stimulate,
A lost confidence
That has arrived when some
Have become irate.
Lives were pledged...
To follow you to the edge.
And now it is discovered,
That direction is dead!
Too little too late to stimulate,
With or without invigorating debate!
The chances taken to play with people's fate...
Doesn't leave them feeling more protected.
Nor are they feeling more secure or safe.
What a mess has been created,
Because of impulses you made to take!
And now you wish to be believed,
That a quick fix to prevent a tidal wave of grief...
Is going to stop that from happening...
And solve all needs!
'Temporarily! '
OH! ...
Temporarily?

Play It Safe
Play it safe.
If you don't want things too complicated,
By words you speak that may escalate...
To offend naysayers waiting to berate,
Every move or decision you make...
Play it safe.
Play it safe.
And if you choose to do this,
Don't hesitate.
Or let anything you happen to hear,
Appear to irritate you into needless debate
Just to lure you to expose impatience.
Play it safe.
Refuse to use excuses to indicate,
To those detractors...
It's okay to re-route your path.
And direction of your fate.
Play it safe.
If you must correct with a slower pace...
By coming face-to-face to eliminate,
Accusations made...
With a breaking away.
Do it...
Before you find the time is late.
Play it safe!

Excusing Everything
I often wondered what my life would be like,
If I had the luxury of being protected.
With a sheltering from harm,
Every step of the way.
And to accuse someone,
For abandoning my sense of feeling safe...
Whenever they temporarily went away.
And...
Upon their return,
A look I would give would riddle them with guilt.
To then be cuddled with assurance,
That everything was okay.
And I could live excusing everything I did.

Late Cat
Late to train
Late to bus
Late to class
And late to party;
She is everywhere a late cat!
Late to eat
Late to sleep
Late to fate
And late to luck;
She is for everything a late cat!
Late to clock
Late to block
Late to dash
Against the truck
And, lo! Even late to death;
She is always a late cat!

Too Late
See the stop-light turn-in red,
Dont you listen to what its said.
All the things you try to hide,
They keep you runnin hard inside.
Oh, you got to leave this town before its...
Too late, too late, too late, too late, too late,
Too late to make the change.
Oo, yes, my friend, youre fadin fast, if you stay here you wont last.
Before your time has run astray, youve got to try to get away.
Oh, you got to leave this place before its...
Too late, too late, too late, too late, too late,
Too late to make the change.
Too late, too late to make the change
Too late to make the change
Yes, its time to make the change, yes, its time to rearrange,
So, my friend, I join the fight for the things you know are right.
Oh, you got to leave this town before its...
Too late, too late, too late, too late, too late,
Too late to make the change.
Too late, too late to make the change
Too late, too late, to make the change
Too late to make the change
Too late, before its too late.

When Have You Ever Dealt With It Anyway?
Hmmm...
Let's see.
What do 'I' recommend,
As a precaution to secure your immediate future?
I would protect what you most value!
'What would that be? '
First I would secure your medications.
You know...
The ones that numb the affects,
Of the things you can not digest.
The ones that keep your delusions protected.
Those that stimulate your pretensions best.
That's what I would do.
If I were you.
'So,
In other words...
Refuse any hints of reality?
Is that what you are saying to me? '
Hints? ? ?
Ignore reality altogether!
You've never expressed to having any use for it before.
When have you ever dealt with it anyway?

A Welcoming Of Their Own Grief
I remember a time,
When being honest with integrity...
Actually made a difference.
People had respect for those,
Who used their minds and were direct.
I also remember,
When people were not so quick...
To protect obvious mistakes made.
Or wasted the time to debate,
A welcoming of their own grief.
I remember a time,
When being honest with integrity...
Actually made a difference to leave.
And people did not pass judgement,
Before they listened to comprehend.
And today people have grown accustomed...
To ignore the message to then blame the messenger,
For their mistakes made to say as if offended...
They should be forgiven for not being accountable,
As they played unconsciously until it became too late.
And I remember the day when I walked away to leave,
This insanity to embrace my peace.

My mind says move on
My heart lags behind
But I don't love you any more
I'm so insecure
Never knew that love did this
Ooh, ooh
I can't remember the last time I felt this way
About somebody
You've done something to my mind
And I can't control it
But I don't love you any more

Never thought I would but I got dissed
Makes me feel so sad and hurt inside
Feel embarrased so I want to hide
Silly me I thought your love was true
Change my name to Silly E. Badu
Before I heal, it's gonna be a while
I know it's gonna be a while, chile

Too late, too late, too late
Feeling insecure
Love has got me sore
I don't want no more
Oh, oh

At first we was cool
You told me you loved me too, ooh
And then you lost your love
Oh then you lost your love

But I can't go
See I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
Just make love to me
Just one more time and then you'll see
I can't believe I made a desparate plea
What's with me, meee, me ye-ah, no, oh

Come on babe
Don't you want be strong with me
You told me we had a family
Want to run to me when you're down and low
But times get tough and there you go
Out the door, you wanna run again
Open my arms and you come back in
Wanna run cause you say that you were afraid, but I'm your friend
Never knew what a friendship was
Never knew how to really love
You can't be what I need you to
And I don't know what is up with you
I know our love will never be the same
But I can't stand these growing pains

Too Late
I see you there across the room
I never thought I’d see you too soon.
Remember when I wanted you but,
You were too cool and just kept shut.
Why are you walking over to me?
Why is it now that you see
That I’m alive and look a bit different
Instead before when your heart was absent.
You get closer and it’s like a wave
I can’t breathe, I sweat, it’s you I crave
Why do you still get me, its been years
I remember the times and all those tears.
I remember how I wanted you
You said one day you’d want me too
You lead me on and broke my heart
I should have known it from the start.
Why now do you appear?
When I am happy without you here
You ask me for one last chance,
A night filled with endless romance.
You can’t do this, you’re too late
I’m happy now, there’s no debate.
You had your chance but missed out
I’ve got someone that doesn’t mess about.
You still make me weak
Why is it you that I seek
It might just be a habit
It’s you from my life I must edit.
You're too late, I say no more
I can’t go there and see what’s in store
It’s finished and you’re just a mate
It’s over now, you're too late.

Cant Stop This Feeling I Got
Dear dad,
Things didnt turn out quite like I wanted them 2
Sometimes I feel like Im gonna explode
Everybody wanna see u down 4 the count
But that aint what being a real mans about
The brave and the bold hang around 4 the kill
So the bigger the hole, the bigger we fill it (fill it!)
They can hit us with all they got
But cha know what?
What?
I cant stop this feeling I got
I feel it right down 2 my toes
I cant stop this feeling I got
My body got 2 have it u know
I cant stop this feeling I got
Ill write a letter to the whole world
I cant stop this feeling I got
Every man, woman, boy and girl
Cant stop this feeling I got, I cant stop this feeling I got
I cant stop this feeling I got, I cant stop this feeling I got
I cant stop this feeling I got
U know I cant sleep at night
I cant stop, u know I love it a lot,
Im talking about an everlasting light.
I cant stop this feeling I got
I get to shaking all in my shoes
I cant stop this feeling I got
The doctor say theres nothing that he can do
Cant stop this feeling I got, cant stop this feeling I got
I cant stop this feeling I got, cant stop this feeling I got
Keep on singing now
Cant stop. try 2 tell me how 2 paint my palace,
That aint where its at,
Thats like trying 2 tell columbus that the world is flat.
If the song were singing truely is the best
Then that my brothers is the ultimate test
All in favor say aye.
We can change anything at all.
I, i, I cant stop. cant stop.
Im in a butt kicking mood tonight yall
Cant stop. cant stop.
Cant stop this feeling I got
Cant stop this feeling I got
Cant stop this feeling I got
Cant stop this feeling I got
Cant stop this feeling I got
Cant stop this feeling I got
Cant stop this feeling I got

Feeling, feeling, feeling, hey!
Hey, pardon me 4 living, (pardon me 4 living)
But this is my world, (this is my world)
U cant make me change (u cant make me change)
Maybe we all got to rearrange (rearrange)
Our brains (our brains)
Yeah. only we can change the world
Only we can change the world
Only we can change the world
1, 2, 1, 2, 3
I cant stop this feeling I got
I cant stop this feeling I got

Train of fate
I see life passing by
On this train that I ride
All the people I sit beside
What is it that they hide?
How do I communicate?
On this train that`s running late
Often times tempting fate
Looking at my watch checking the date
In a world with so much hate
I listen to a heated debate
Like a fish hooked on the bait
On a train where I sit and wait
My emotions locked behind a gate
My heart beating at such a fast rate
Yet my mind very sedate
Thinking of a better world I wish to create
Where all the people are feeling great
Where love, hope and joy are the motto of state
But i`m stuck on a train running late
Pondering whether I should temp fate
And find the key that unlocks the gate

Deeper
She moves with a tender kiss
And I can't stop feeling
She soothes with a tenderness
And I can't stop feeling
Oh I don't even know her name
But I can't stop feeling
She says that she feels the same
But I can't stop feeling
And if you let me try tonight,
You just might see that...
I'm falling deeper and deeper and deeper
In love
And I'm feeling more and more and more
and more and more alone
Oh yeah
She turns her lies into art
And I can't stop feeling
One touch and I fall apart
And I can't stop feeling
It sounded like an old clich
But I can't stop feeling
I love her in a thousand ways
And I can't stop feeling
And if you let me try tonight, well you just might see that...
I'm falling deeper and deeper and deeper
In love
And I'm feeling more and more and more and
more and more alone
Oh yeah
Well every simple notion
Is poetry in motion
Oh can't you see it's pushing me over the edge
This wrecking ball you're holding
Has crushed the hearts you've stolen
I'll give you my devotion all over again
And if you let me try tonight, you just might see that I'm...
That I'm falling deeper and deeper and deeper
In love
And I'm feeling more and more and more and
more and more alone
yeah
And I'm falling deeper and deeper and deeper
In love
And yet I'm feeling more and more and more
and more and more alone
Oh yeah

I'd Rather Watch Grass Grow
I am not going to follow you,
To feel secure...
In anyone's darkened dungeon.
To feel protected from what?
Life?
Or the light of day?
To then pretend I am feeling safe?
From what?
Your increasing insanity?
No thank you.
I'd rather watch grass grow,
Just to get away from your concept of living.
Than to sit and listen to you...
Complain day in and day out,
About the neighbors!

When you fate that serendipty
That's connection you would never understand
It was all with you
Right in the palm of your hand
When its all going perfectly
And nothing could change a thing
Its that feeling, that feeling deep within
When someone comes along and takes that fate away
You think that pain your feeling will be with you until your dying day
When the pain is so unbearable
And you can't take it anymore
You never want to give up
You wonder what you've been living for
But then you start to wonder if that fate was ment to be
Maybe something beautiful is out there for me
Someone who wouldn't harm
Someone who would keep me safe
Who always keep me smiling, yet keep me in my place
So my tears will stop falling
I will make my self be brave
And take the path that's waiting to lead me to my fate.

Lets All Make A Bomb
And as the low aggress the high
All you can do is sit and cry
Youve only got yourself to blame
Dont try to stop me its too late
My minds made up, this job wont wait
Theres nothing left for me to say
Hey! theres no need to debate
Its time to designate your fate
Take the m out of m.a.d.
Lets all make a bomb
Take one hundred scientists or more
Place in a room and lock the door
Let them confer for half their lives
Unlock the door, go in and see
What they have made for you and me
A brand new toy to idolize
Hey! theres no need to debate
Its time to designate your fate
Take the m out of m.a.d.
Lets all make a bomb
Although the war has just begun
Ignore the sirens, lets have fun
Put on your best, go out in style
Although our futures looking black
Well go down town and join the pack
Lets celebrate and vaporise

Too Late Marlene
Walking out of nowhere
And I let you in
Til my imagination, went for a spin
I seen you every night
Been making out since then
And still I wonder why everybodys saying
That ice is thin.
And I think I know you
Just a little bit by now
And I think I can show you
You see baby, I dont want to fight about it...
Send down your rain,
Then whos to blame?
And youll understand because its much too late to change.
Awaken to this hunger
And then watch my heat
Grow paler than the moonlight
That you made me eat
And if we run our lives
Along a one way street
Well always wonder why everytime -
It still tastes just as sweet
And I think I know you
Just a little bit by now
And I think I can show you
You see baby, I dont want to fight about it...
(chorus)
I will explain, (too late)
Were to much the same, (too late)
No I wont leave
Because its just too late marlene

You see baby, I dont want to fight about it...

I will explain, (too late)
Were to much the same, (too late)

Because its just just too late marlene
