Sounds Of Blackness

Whatever it takes to make it I'm going all the way I may be down sometimes but I won't be down always

I had some problems
heartache and pain
tryin to find the answer
I've been rackin my brain
for the ????
begin to come clear
to get myself together
and go on from here

CHORUS

Now I know better
it's time to move on
my detirmination
is what keeps me strong
I believe in myself like never before
faith is the key to unlock the door

Whatever it will take to have you and you're love
???? I know you can't cope
just move on, don't ever stop

Walk blindly to the light and reach out for his hand.
Don't ask any question and don't try to understand.
Open up your mind and then open up your heart,
and you will see that you and me aren't far apart.

'Cause I believe that love is the answer.
I believe that love will find a way.

Violence has spread world wide
and there's fam'lies on the street.
We sell drugs to children now.
Oh, why can't we just see
that all we do is eliminate our future
with the things we do today?
Money is our incentive now, so that makes it okay.

But I believe that love is the answer.
I believe that love will find a way.
I believe that love is the answer.
I believe that love will find a way.

I've been seeing Lisa now for a little over a year.
She says she'd never been so happy,
but Lisa lives in fear that one day
daddy's gonna find out she's in love
with a nigger from the streets.
Oh, how he would lose it then,
but she's still here with me.
'Cause she believes that love will see it through
and they'll understand.
He'll see me as a person and not just a black man.

'Cause I believe that love is the answer.
I believe that love will find a way.
I believe, I believe, I believe,
I believe that love is the answer.
I believe that love will find a way.
Love will find a way.
Love will find a way.
Love will find a way.

love will find a way.
Love will find a way.
Love will find a way.
Love will find a way.

love will find a way.
Love will find a way.
Love will find a way.
Love will find a way.

I tried to help
You to succeed
Gave you your warmth
And supplied all your needs

Each day I pray
That you're OK
In every way
Being all you can be
Cause there's so much
To learn
And there's so little time
Before your life slips away
Yeah,
But there's one place you can be safe

Yes, you have a place in my heart
No matter where you go
It's never too far
Yes, you have a place in my heart
Even if you go astray
All you have to do is come back home
You know, you have a place in my heart

Now that you're grown
And on your own
Don't feel like you
Are there all alone
No matter what
You're going through
A mother's love
Will always comfort you

Cause there's so much

To learn
And there's so little time
Before your life slips away
Yeah,
But there's one place you can be safe

Yes, you have a place in my heart
No matter where you go
It's never too far
Yes, you have a place in my heart
Even if you go astray
All you have to do is come back home
You have a place in my heart
You have a place in my heart

No matter where you go
Yes you have a place in my heart
No matter where you go
It's never too far
Yes, you have a place in my heart
Even if you go astray
All you have to do is come back home

You have your own place
Right here
If you've done wrong, that's alright
You're never alone. Come on home
Yes, you have a place in my heart
No matter where you go
It's never too far
Yes, you have a place in my heart

Whatever it takes to make it I'm going all the way I may be down sometimes but I won't be down always

I had some problems
heartache and pain
tryin to find the answer
I've been rackin my brain

See the little baby
Wrapped in a manger
On Christmas Morning

Amen, Amen, Amen

See him in the Temple
Talking with the Elders
Tomorrows Wisdom

Amen, Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

Down at the Jordan
And John was baptising
And Savin' all sinners

Amen, Amen, Amen

See 'em at the Seaside
Talking with the fisherman
And makin' disciples

Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

Sing it through the mountains

Amen chorus

Down at the Jordon
John was baptising
Savin, savin, all sinners

Amen choruses??

Keep, keep On.... Never Say Die....

When in the midst of sorrow
You can't see up when looking down
A brighter day tomorrow will bring
You hear the voice of reason
Telling you this cannot weigh me down *
No matter how hard reality seems
Just hold on to your dreams

Don't give up and don't give in
Although it seems you never win
You will always pass the test
As long as you keep your head to the sky
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
Be optimistic

If things around you crumble
No, you don't have to stumble and fall
Keep pushing on and don't you look back

I know the storms and strife
Cloud up your outlook on life
Just think ahead and you'll be inspired
To reach higher and higher.

You'll always do your best
If you learn to never say never
You maybe down, but you're not out.

Don't give up and don't give in
Although it seems you never win
You will always pass the test
As long as you keep your head to the sky
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky (you can win child!)
You can win as long as you keep your head to the sky
Be optimistic

Don't you let no body stop you.....
Be optimistic

You can win, Yes
Never say die....
