Good For Your Soul

Have you ever felt that somehow
You were not yourself
That your body was the same
But everything around you wasnt right
And images so strange and foreign
Flooded in like raging water
Have you ever been in love
With someone you hardly knew
Whereas every time you closed your eyes,
You saw this person come alive
It kept you wide awake at night
You felt like you were burning up
In pain, you want to scream
Then you passed out in a dream
Chorus
Just once or twice is good for your soul
Just once or twice is good for your soul
If you dont stop, youll lose control
Just once or twice is good for your soul
Every lay there half asleep all hours of the night
With some nagging demon tugging at that tiny bell
Inside your mind
When suddenly that strange idea
Bursts into an inspiration
You grab for it and then
The whole thing slips right through your fingers
Chorus
Just once or twice is good for your soul
Just once or twice is good for your soul
Just once or twice is good for your soul
Just once or twice is good for your soul
Its good for your soul
Its good for your soul
Its good for your soul
Its good for your soul

Soul On Soul

No one ever told me, no one ever said
No one ever loved me, till I was goin' outta my head
No one ever listened, to the things I tried to say
You gave me everything I needed, that's your way
You gave me hope, you gave me love
You gave me faith to carry on
Good God have mercy on me
Don't you desert me, baby
I wanna be together soul on soul this time
[Believe me, baby] believe me, baby
Don't ever leave me lonely
I wanna be together soul on soul this time
No one ever held me, as good as this before
No one ever stopped me, when I was runnin' out of the door
You set me free, you made me shine
You gave me arms to make you mine
Good God have mercy on me
Don't you desert me, baby
I wanna be together soul on soul this time
[Believe me, baby] believe me, baby
Don't ever leave me lonely
I wanna be together soul on soul this time
Love made me so gun shy
Don't say, don't say another word
Love feels so radical
That I lose my way, when you're here by me
Good God have mercy on me
Don't you desert me, baby
I wanna be together soul on soul this time
[Believe me, baby] believe me, baby
Don't ever leave me lonely
I wanna be together soul on soul this time
Good God have mercy on me (have mercy)
Don't you desert me, baby
I wanna be together soul on soul this time
(I wanna be together soul on soul this time)
[Believe me, baby] believe me, baby (believe me, baby)
Don't ever leave me lonely
(Don't ever, ever leave me)
I wanna be together soul on soul this time (soul on soul this time)
Good God have mercy on me
(Good God have mercy on me)
Don't you desert me, baby
(Don't you desert me, baby)
I wanna be together soul on soul this time (soul on soul this time)
[Believe me, baby] (ooh, ooh) believe me, baby
Don't ever leave me lonely
I wanna be together soul on soul this time
(I wanna be together soul on soul this time)

Wasnt It Good

Wasnt it good
The way that I touched you late last night
Wasnt it good again in the mornings early light
Did you know when you closed that bedroom door
I betcha didnt know exactly what I had in store
Wasnt it good when you felt it coming through you
Wasnt it good that I knew just how to do you
Did you know you never had it like this before
I betcha didnt know youd be coming around
Back for more, more, more
Lets have a party, loves pouring out of my soul
Im your party hearty and let the future take control
Just remember my darling when theres time to spare
Youll be thinking about me, and our hot affair
Saying wasnt it good, wasnt it good so good
Did you know you never had it like this before
And I betcha didnt know youd be coming around
Back for more, more, more
Lets have a party, loves pouring out of my soul
Im your party hearty and let the future take control
Lets have a party well make the best of it while we can
God you wont be sorry,
Cause Im committed to pleasing my man, my man
Just remember my darling when theres time to spare
Ill be thinking about you, and our hot affair
Saying wasnt it good, wasnt it good so good
Do you love her, can you dig it, did I do it to you baby so good
Did you want it, can you dig it, do you love it baby, baby so good
Was it was it really good, you love it didnt you lover
God Im so ooh shoot, am I good
Did you love it did you want it can you dig it
Baby, baby so good

Soul Sister

Soul sister
You are my soul sister
That God gave to me
And in return God gave you
A soul Brother
That is me
Soul sister
Take god care of yourself
Soul sister
Give yourself a treat once
But don't do it all the time
Because too many treats are not good
And you can end up even being a diebetic like me
Soul sister
God loves you and I
Soul sister
We will grow old someday
Soul sister
Lets give a hand to a senior
Soul sister
Lets worship God together
Soul sister
There are people out there that will hurt us
But we have to keep our eyes open for that
Soul sister
Lets take good care of the earth
That God gave to us
Soul sister
Money doesn't grow on trees
And that is why we have to learn to save money also
Soul sister
Our spirit is alive
And it will be alive each day
That we live our lives here on earth
Soul sister
God bless you
Wherever you are today and always

The Good

Even before she held you tight to her
and murmured softly, isn’t that just good? —

before you learned to hear, and speak, and spell
and comprehend the concept of the Good –

your soul already hungered for the Good it loves,
never to be quenched in its desire;

as your beloved cat, who in the day
manipulates affection, but at night

becomes a ruthless predator to feed its catness;
so your clever, cunning, hungry, godly soul;

even when your adolescent heart falls flat
at beauty’s vision in a human form

soul whispers (unattended to) : now here’s the truth:
that even beauty’s borrowed and must be refreshed..

so soul may take a lifetime, till the mind
whose aid it seeks to find itself the Good

arrives; and sighs a lifetime’s sigh; and rests;
and soul, which knows no failure, place, or time,
shines out to prove it never went away;
nor shall, nor can; her elsewhere light, our day.

[From Plotinus, Ennead VI 7,31,17-31]

From Zero to Zero

O soul of my
You say a lot about the goodness
You say many things about ugliness
So where are you supposed to be?

O soul of my
You say a lot of reasons for doing a good
You say a lot of reasons to shy away from ugliness
So which one have you done?

O soul of my
You must know that the mind is the commander who determines a person's good-bad
You must know that the reason that encourage people to do something in this world
Could then you are always aware of the passions that every time it comes flirting?

O soul of my
Weep for all your iniquities
Be thankful for each 'point' your kindness and sincerity
and
Always remember the Lord thy God..

Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood

Baby do you understand me now
If sometimes you see that I'm mad
Don't you know that no one alive can always be an angel?
When everything goes wrong I seem bad
Well I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Baby sometimes I'm so carefree
with a joy that's hard to hide
Then sometimes again it seems that all I have is worry
And then you bound to see my other side
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
If I seem edgy
I want you to know
That I never meant to take it out on you
Life has its problems
and I have my share
And that's me one thing I never wanna do
Baby
Don't you know I'm human
I have thoughts like any other one?
Oh when sometimes I find myself alone regretting
Some little thing
Some simple thing I've done
I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Please don't let me be misunderstood

A Dream Away

A dream away
Five in the mornin, all alone in your room
Door locked tight, private moon
No faces to face, no one to blame
Nonexistent inside this frame
(? ) take it on the run
Oo, yeah take it on the run
Uh yeah
Theres a cheetah walkin high
Liquid whispers, dragonfly
Charleston booties on painted toes
Drop the knot ivory soul
(? ) take it on the run
Oo yeah, take it on the run
Oo yeah, take it on the run
Because the good life is just a dream away
I said the good life is just a dream awaaaay
Choke emotion, all lose control
Chicken encounters fill your bowls
The lonely crowd is decomposed
Lost obsession, future froze
Well, take it on the run
Oo yeah, take it on the run
Oo yeah, take it on the run
Take it on the run
Take it on the run
Take it on the run
Take it
Cause the good life is just a dream away
Yeah, oo the good good life is just a dream away
Oo, oh well the good good good good life is just a dream away
Just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream, dream away
(? ) the good good good good life
The good life is just a dream away
Just a dream
Just a dream

On Friendship

A soul to talk to,
Share secrets;
A soul who walks you
Through life’s stress…

A soul to laugh with,
and to cry;
Someone who makes
your tears go dry...

A soul dependable,
Who consoles;
A soul, you’re proud of,
And who cares…

A soul who’s priceless,
More than wealth;
Someone who keeps you
In good health…

A soul who affords
timely help;
Someone who gives you
right advice…

A soul with mind,
almost like yours’;
Someone who feels
like how you would…

A well-wisher;
A comforter;
A body-part
like your own heart…

A selfless soul,
Who keeps you whole;
A part of life
You dare not part…

And rarely friends too
blunders make;
And make you cry
More than your foes!

Good friends;
Thick friends;
Fine friends;
Best friend…

And that’s what friendship’s
all about;
Friends share your hardships,
joys, no doubt!

The Strength To Say Good-Bye

Even though I seem quiet and shy
I have a strength inside of me
I have the strength to say good-bye

If a friend had always been a lie
I would be heartbroken but I realize
I have the strength to say good-bye

Even if someone precious to me dies
My soul will be crying but give me time
For I have the strength to say good-bye

When my soul is lost and I want to cry
Over time I shall heal, for I know that I
Still have the strength to say good-bye

Soul Psychodelicide

Can we talk about soul?
Good Judy wanna dance 2 this?
Listen Cash, I do believe
I do believe that I wanna battle 2night
Listen Cash (Ooh)
Don't be sad, there's nothing wrong with your player
We have taken control as we bring U the new power
CHORUS:
Soul Psychodelicide (It's a heavenly thing)
Soul Psychodelicide (It's a heavenly thing)
Soul Psychodelicide (It's a heavenly thing)
Soul Psychodelicide
The maxi-pump of power
Good Judy wanna fly the kite
The maxi-pump of sheer delight
Guaranteed 2 pump your body right
Damn skippy, we been here before
Were just comin' on harder now
Hard on this feeling
Holy steppin on solid ground (Oh-we-oh)
Good Judy wanna hear us sing?
CHORUS
(The maxi-pump)
(U wanna try it 2night?)
All over the world theres a new soul goin' on
Brand new singer singin' a brand new song
Of an age-old story, still got 2 be told
The spirit can't be bought and it can't be sold
Because it dwells so deep inside U
No king could put it there
2 get it, U gotta want it, U gotta need it, U gotta care
I'm talkin' about
CHORUS
Good Judy gotta dance 2 this
Every time U cock it I can hit U on the up
I got a funky drummer and he just can't get enough
If U cannot cock it 'less the bass is on the floor
Then I'll have my mixer give U just a little more (Oh-we-oh)
I wanna battle 2night
Good Judy over there with the smoking jacket on
Look at that body pumpin'
Move that body strong (Oh-we-oh)
(Soul Psychodelicide) {x2}
Damn skippy, we been here before
Were just comin' on harder now
Hard on this feeling
Holy steppin on solid ground (Oh-we-oh {x2})
(Soul Psychodelicide)
Judy gon say that? (Oh-we-oh) (Soul Psychodelicide)
Judy wanna hear me sing?
CHORUS
(Oh yeah)
3 month's in, we got 9 2 go
Anybody in the house wanna stop this show? (Hell no!)
The people keep goin' on (Soul goes on and on {x2})
Keep dancin' till dawn
The soul that never stops
It just goes on and on and on and on...
(Soul goes on and on) {repeat}
(CHORUS) {repeat}
I do believe that I'm diggin' your house
And like a beautiful raging fire
Your heart is ready 4 a high
Good Judy need 2 do it - psychodelicide
Over and over {repeat}
And do it - psychodelicide
Do it - psychodelicide
Put your hand on my temple
Put your hand on my heart
Grind your hips next 2 mine
Don't U pull apart
Don't pull apart (Psychodelicide)
Don't U pull apart
CHORUS {repeat till end}
(Soul goes on and)
I can't stop this feeling I got {x4

Looking For Something

Is there a good way to say goodbye
When youre leaving all you had cause your love has run dry
Is there a good way to be a bad girl
When youre taking all thats given from the world
Is there a good way to move ahead
Without selling out your soul for some water or some bread
Is there a good way to learn your lesson and stay alive
Chorus
Ive been looking for something all of my life
Maybe in some other city Ill see the light
Is there a good way to say goodbye
To this fantasy world to this lie
Is there a good way to get out before youre jaded
I need to find a good way to say goodbye
Is there a good way to say goodbye
Chorus
Ive been looking for something all of my life
Maybe in some other city Ill be alright
Is there a good way to leave him alone
When you find his love just hits too close to home
Is there a good way to deny everything you thought you needed
I need to find a good way to say goodbye
Is there a good way to say goodbye
Chorus
Ive been looking for something all of my life
Maybe Ill find somebody wholl make things alright
Ive been looking for something all of my live
Maybe in some other city Ill be alright
Ive been looking for you

Life and Death of Happiness

Mourn the death of good things which
have passed so quietly in the night,
cry over their funeral
growing uncontrollable as the casket is closed so tight.

Feel the warmth of good thing’s soul
as it escapes into forever after
wave good bye
with a tear in eye
to love,
to light,
to laughter.

Rush into the hospital,
you should have known, you were forewarned
that every time a good things dies
another is shortly born.

Good-Night

THE lark is silent in his nest,
The breeze is sighing in its flight,
Sleep, Love, and peaceful be thy rest.
Good-night, my love, good-night, good-night.
Sweet dreams' attend thee in thy sleep,
To soothe thy rest till morning's light,
And angels round thee vigil keep.
Good-night, my love, good-night, good-night.
Sleep well, my love, on night's dark breast,
And ease thy soul with slumber bright;
Be joy but thine and I am blest.
Good-night, my love, good-night, good-night.

Dont Let Me Be Misunderstood

Baby you understand me now
If sometimes you see Im mad
Doncha know that no one alive can always be an angel?
When everything goes wrong you see some bad
Well Im just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord, please dont let me be misunderstood
Ya know sometimes baby Im so carefree

Then sometimes it seems again that all I have is worry
And then you burn to see my other side
But Im just a soul whose intentions are good

Life has its problems
And I get more than my share
But thats me one thing I never mean to do
Cos I love you
Oh baby

Dont you know I have faults like anyone?
Sometimes I find myself alone regretting
Some little fooling thing
Some simple thing that Ive done
Im just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord, please dont let me be misunderstood
I try so hard
So dont let me be misunderstood

Spirit Of Freedom

(realising the new world)
I know instinctively
When something is right
With no one there to save me
You came into my life
The words you whispered
Still echo in my mind
Forget about tomorrow
Forget about time
So good to be alive and touch
The spirit of freedom - in your soul
So good to breathe the air and
Feel that life is worth living
Theres no time to waste in this life
Theres no time at all
So good to see the truth and touch
The spirit of freedom
I never thought that
I could ever feel this way
To see the warmest sunlight
On a cold and rainy day
Dawn wakes the silence
And I know that I cant wait
To hear the words
I wanna say again and again
So good to be alive and touch
The spirit of freedom - in your soul
So good to breathe the air and
Feel that life is worth living
Theres no time to waste in this life
Theres no time at all
Theres no time to waste in this life
Theres no time at all
So good to be alive and touch
The spirit of freedom - in your soul
So good to breathe the air and
Feel that life is worth living
Theres no time to waste in this life
Theres no time at all
So good to be alive and touch
The spirit of freedom - in your soul

Sonnet: Roots Matter

Look, how the cut branches and leaves get dried!
Sometimes, this happens when the Sun's too hot;
With roots intact, the trunk sprouts from its side;
The tree uprooted sure to death is fraught.

Look, how the trunk has sprouted green again!
The tree has started growing with revenge;
Almost a miracle is done by rain;
But this is how Nature tries to avenge.

Our Body, mind draw nourishment from soul;
Our soul if pure is habitat for God;
If not, the evil spirits take this role;
A sinful soul in Heaven would look odd?

Good roots matter if habits good flourish;
God's grace matters for Man's soul to nourish.
