Individuality (Can I Be Me?)
Rachelle Ferrell/Jef Lee Johnson
Aural Elixir Music/Malinda Davora Music (ASCAP)
All my life I've tried to please
Disregarding my own needs
Now it's time for me to be free!
(Transit)
And if you don't like it
You can do what you wanna do
And if you don't invite it
It ain got to have nothing to do with you
(Chorus)
Lemme be what I want to
Can I be me?
I need to be what I want to be... 'cause
I'm an individual, I'm into individuality
I'm an individual, I'm into individuality
Can't nobody be me, Can't nobody be you
God made everybody just the way that He wanted to! (2nd time use: She)
(Verse 2)
I'm not trying to separate
I just want to celebrate
The ending of the sublimation... of my soul!
( ~Repeat Transit then Chorus~)
Sista
Rachelle Ferrell/George Duke
Aural Elixir Music/Mycenae Music (ASCAP)
(Verse)
You got that certain thing that can't quite be described
Copied all over the world, it can't be denied
And when you walk into the room the brothers be slippin' all up out they swerve...
Incredible woman, you're still my girl... !
(Chorus 1)
Sista... You know you got a friend in me
Sista... We're sharing the power of femininity!
(Verse)
You brought my spirits up when everything was low
You helped me to heal my heart & continue to grow
And now I'm feeling so much better that I can do anything I choose
With you in my corner I just can't lose!
(Chorus 2)
Sista... You know you got a friend in me
Sista... I'm giving you props, respect and dignity
(Bridge)
You don't know what you mean to me
You're the light of my life
Strength in my fight, The stand in my feet
And Ohhhh ... .sho' do like the way you roll
Auntie, Mama, Grandmom, Daughter... (scat)... !
Sista (continued)
(Chorus 3)
Sista... I'm giving you my heart and soul
Sista... Because it was you who helped to make me whole again
(Chorus 1)
Sista ... You know you got a friend in me
Sista... We're sharing the power of femininity!
Will You Remember Me?
Rachelle Ferrell/Jef Lee Johnson
Aural Elixir Music/Malinda Davora Music (ASCAP)
(Verse 1)
If you see a pretty lady walking down the street
Will you remember... me?
When a woman comes up to you looking good, talkin' bout what she gonna do
Will you remember me?
Will you be tempted to compromise what we have
Or will you want to make it last?
If you're tempted to jeopardize our relationship
Will you remember this...
Will You Remember Me? (continued)
(Chorus)
Remember
Remember
Remember me?
Will you remember
Remember
Ooh, ooh remember me?
(Bridge)
Don't you know that I love you, boy
And ain nothing in this world I wouldn't do for ya
I understand looking at other women... is part of being a man
(Bridge - continued)
I ain trying to cramp your style
I need to know who's in control
You or your desire...
(Verse 2)
When you see a situation coming up threatin' a bring us down
Will you remember me?
When a feeling comes over you, feelin' good... think about
What you gonna do... will you remember me?
Will you remember the forever we said together
Remember when you said that to me?
Can you look at me in my eyes... in a time gone by
And remember this...
~Repeat (Chorus) then (Bridge) then (Chorus) out~
I Forgive You
Rachelle Ferrell
Aural Elixir Music (ASCAP)
(Verse 1)
It really doesn't matter what you did anymore
It really doesn't matter what you did it for
Or who you did it to...
(Chorus)
I forgive you
I forgive you
I forgive you
Totally completely now
What a freedom just releasing from my heart
From my mind and soul
(Verse 2)
It doesn't really matter whether or not I understand
It doesn't really matter whether or not you're still my man
I still love you... and
(Chorus)
I forgive you
I forgive you
I forgive you
Totally completely now
What a freedom just releasing from my heart
From my mind and soul
I Forgive You (continued)
(Bridge)
I no longer want to hold on to that which doesn't make me strong
And I don't wanna care no more 'bout what's right or wrong
I just wanna be whole again
I wanna be free again
Want to be me again
I just want to heal...
(Transit)
I'm so tired of being in pain
I just want to be whole again
So...
(Chorus)
I forgive you
I forgive you
I forgive you
Totally completely now
What a freedom just releasing from my heart
From my mind and soul
I Gotta Go
Rachelle Ferrell
Aural Elixir Music (ASCAP)
(Verse 1)
Hey baby... there's something I got to tell you
It ain easy, but it's true
Sit on down, boy let me break the news
I am no longer in love with you
And that is why I...
(Chorus)
I gotta go... can't hold on no more
Tried everything I know... but
I got to go... baby... I gotta go
I tried it out, cried it out
We talked it out, we fought it out
(Chorus - continued)
And I thought it out
Now there's nothing left to do but
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on out...
(Verse 2)
Honey... I'm just about to roll up
It ain easy, but it's real
It's breaking my heart, boy... to break the news
What we got ain been nowhere in a very long while
And in my heart I cry much more than I smile... I...
~Repeat (Chorus) then (Bridge) ~
(Bridge)
How do I tell you I don't love you?
Not in the way that I used to...
Don't take it personal, You're still beautiful
I Gotta Go (continued)
(Bridge - continued)
But I have to choose myself
I have to choose my growth and my health
My first responsibility is to me!
And that's why...
(Chorus)
I gotta go... can't hold on no more
Tried everything I know... but
I got to go... yeah, I gotta go
I tried it out, cried it out
We talked it out, we fought it out
And I thought it out
Now there's nothing left to do but
Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on...
Why You Wanna Mess It All Up?
Rachelle Ferrell
Aural Elixir Music (ASCAP)
(Verse 1)
Trust is a thing
A thing of the past
I knew this relationship wouldn't last
You never ever seem to keep your word to me... ooh wee
(Verse 2)
Your love is good
But you're timing is bad
The most irresponsible man I've ever had, Lawd
You left me hanging for the very last time tonight...
That's right... Oh
Why You Wanna Mess It All Up? (continued)
(Chorus)
Why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it
Why you wanna mess it all up?
(Repeat Chorus)
(Verse 3)
You got some stuff
That I don't understand
Who can I depend on if it ain my man?
I dare you say, "Gimme one more chance" again
The end.
(Repeat Chorus 2x then Bridge)
(Bridge)
I tried to provide a place for you in my life
But you ain ready
You ain't steady
Now you've run out of time!
(Repeat Chorus then out)
Gaia
Rachelle Ferrell/ Jonathan Butler
Aural Elixir Music/Ranjo Music (ASCAP)
(Verse 1)
The scent of flowers in the air
Your perfume is subtle and everywhere
Breath so sweet and warm against my skin
I breathe in deep and take you in...
Your beauty takes my breath away
And in your embrace is where I want to stay
I've got to do all that I can to get close to you
Whoa... yeah
(Chorus)
Gaia... I adore you
Gaia... I implore you
Give us one more chance...
(Verse 2)
In you I move, in you I live
Like a baby in a mother's womb
The gift of life is what you give
I'm so deeply filled with gratitude
My faith in life has been renewed
Your beauty takes my breath away
And in your embrace is where I want to stay
I've got to do all that I can to get close to you
Whoa... yeah
Gaia (continued)
(Chorus)
Gaia... I adore you
Gaia... I implore you
Give us one more chance
Gaia... I adore you... Gaia
I assure you I'll do all that I can to do right by you
"The earth is our home. Tread softly upon her with respect and gratitude."
Love, ~Rachelle
Run To Me
Rachelle Ferrell
Aural Elixir Music (ASCAP)
(Verse 1)
When you're weary
When you're worn
When your spirit is almost gone
When the light in your eye is in danger of expiring... oh
(Chorus)
Run to me
Run to me, baby
Run To Me (continued)
(Verse 2)
When you're lonely
And it's cold inside
When your soul is anxious and you don't know why
When your heart is in doubt and you can't quite work it on out... ooh
(Chorus)
Run to me
Run to me, baby
Oh run to me
Run, run to me
(Bridge)
I'll be a shelter from the storm
I'll be a blanket to keep you warm
You know I will, you know I will
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
I'll be a shoulder you can cry on
I'll be a sounding board you can rely on
You know I will, you know I will
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
~Vamp out~
Reflections of My Heart
Rachelle Ferrell/George Duke
Aural Elixir Music/Mycenae Music (ASCAP)
(Verse 1)
He boggles me when he looks at me
(Female) I no longer see what is right before my eyes
Something happens and I don't know why
I begin to fall...
(Verse 2)
She looks at me and alters reality
(Male) There's nothing more to see but what is right before my eyes
Something happens and I don't know why
I begin to fall...
(Transit)
Isn't it funny how we see the same thing in each other?
(Both) Feels like we're a mirror for one another
(Chorus)
I believe there's a doorway to me... inside you
(Both) I perceive a sure way to love... honest & true
When I look in your eyes see familiar surprise see
Reflections of my heart
(Verse 3)
(Male) I feel somehow, somewhere, in some way we've always been connected
(Female) I sense that I know what I don't know & it's just what I've always expected
(Both) There's a strange familiarity about you & me...
(Both) We seem to flow effortlessly & begin to fall...
Reflections of My Heart (continued)
(Chorus)
I believe there's a doorway to me... inside you
(Both) I perceive a sure way to love... honest and true
(Both) When I look in your eyes see familiar surprise see
(Female) Reflections of my heart
(Male) Reflections of my heart
(Both) Reflections of my heart
Satisfied
Rachelle Ferrell/ George Duke
Aural Elixir Music/ Mycenae Music (ASCAP)
(Verse 1)
Lemme tell a story 'bout an old man & woman I know
They were in the desert so dry, diggin' ditches... deep
Waitin' for the rain to flow
Well, the people came from miles around
Wantin' to know why they did what they did & how
"Faith is the key," he said, "to what can't yet be seen"
Then he looked at the sky, winked at his wife & said,
"That's why baby, baby, baby...
Satisfied (continued)
(Chorus)
I'm so satisfied
I know that this joy can't be denied!
Make me sing in the morning
Make me smile at night
Laugh for no particular reason
Just 'cause everything's alright!
I'm so satisfied!
(Verse 2)
No doubt about it, there's a Higher Power working in here!
There's a way to anything anytime, any way and anywhere
But it won't work if there's fear
If we put our trust in what we feel
(Verse 2 - continued)
Instead of what we think in our heads, hmm
Then we'll remember to keep it real
So the soul will be nourished and the spirit is fed!
Baby, baby, baby, baby
~Repeat (Chorus) then (Bridge) ~
(Bridge)
Life is only what we allow it to be
There are no accidents and no mistakes
It really just depends on the choices we choose to make
Everything is everything anyway!
~Repeat (Chorus) then (Tag) ~
Satisfied (continued)
(Tag)
In a world of choice... 'tween the Forces
I'd rather be with Light, satisfied!
In a world of choice... 'tween the Forces
I'd rather be with Love, satisfied!
I Can Explain
Rachelle Ferrell
Aural Elixir Music (ASCAP)
(Verse 1)
I come to you with a heavy heart
Don't know quite where to start... 'cept that
No one has ever loved me like you do
Like you do...
(Verse 2)
You treat me like you just don't care
But we both know darling, that's not fair!
But no one has ever loved me like you do
Not like you do...
I Can Explain (continued)
(Chorus)
I can explain
Why I caused you pain
Let me tell why
I made you cry
'Cause you hurt me
Like no one else before you
But no one has ever loved me like you do
(Verse 3)
Now, you wanted me all to yourself
But I just found out you've got somebody else!
And oh, but no one has ever loved me like you do
(Chorus)
I can explain
Why I caused you pain
Let me tell why
I made you cry
'Cause you hurt me
Like no one else before you
But no one has ever loved me like you do
Like you do
