Angela Brown

How come loving you is so right
But it feels so wrong
If loving you is all I got
With you, my heart belongs, yeah
...

You are a vision come true
Your fingers strum my soul
Each touch a melody, each touch a melody
Want only tingling against my skin
...

You took my heart and you ran away
Broken, but you made it whole again
Loved and accepted me the way I am
I was so touched by the words you said
...

Love kindly creeps upon me
Whenever you're around
All my life I sacrificed
I pushed ecstasy down
...

Do you remember way back in the day
Spin the bottle, stick ball and freeze tag hey
Yeah, I can remember it way back then
Braiding hair, slam books, street dance offs amen!
...

Love is neither angry nor sweet
It doesn't melt or retreat
It doesn't break, or get harder
Feel pain, yearning, or turn over
...

Intro
My vibes are so high
I flip the switch and ride
...

I love you, but I don't mean it. I need you, but I won't accept it.
You hurt me in the worst way, I don't need you, but I want you to stay.
I hate you so bad, but I love you the same.
Why do we choose to play with my mind, why do we play love games?
...

I thought I'll never come to this
I thought I gave my heart to you
Not like this, we come to part
Too close, too far, the river is deep
...

Baby, what's up with us
Things used to be different
You'd hold me in your arms
And tell me sweet nothings
...

What do you do with an empty heart?
Would you die at this moment?
Would you break down and cry out, for the one you love?
Would you change your ways, to make him happy?
...

Hundred years of struggle, yet your minds
still boggle
in shame, shaking like the game, my people.
Underline railroad we run with heavy load
...

Yet deterred, by fate alone
Many questionable conclusions, theories, details
Yet to determine who is the blame
A resolution, only to retroact an opposition
...

Behold creature tenderly I've spoken
More precious than any worldly possession
Your beauty is as angelic as a fairy
Watching you soar above the heaven
...

If I die, let it not be in vein.
For whom I am, I am not ashamed.
For what I'm not, for who is to blame?
For praise and glory, I have yet claimed.
...

I was sitting daydreaming as
I began to vision a world of emotions
words used to describe my feelings on life
I wanted to say but couldn't express those emotions
...

Everyday is a eulogy on race
Every hour we face fear,
as we pray and cope...
Another pale day we face, our race
...

Brown skin you are beautiful in every way
With the way you carry yourself
Your perfect in every way
Brown skin your color is more precious
...

Black butterfly fly
Black butterfly fly
Black butterfly fly
...

I hear the sound of wind
Beating against my window pane
I hear ghosts gathering
In the misty dawn till sunrise
...
