I think that, you know, for the most part that was that old way of thinking That old guard, that this music is here, this music is here If we take away all the titles of music you take away that this is rock and roll This is country, this is blues, this is jazz, and we strip is down It's just the same thing, you know, at its core, its just about human emotion You know, it's about passion, it's about pain, it's about fear, it's about aspiration You know we're all basically the same It took a lifetime to learn how to live Another lifetime to learn how to give It took 34 trips around the hot sun to land me here That's why every ear that hears understand me clear I'm not a rapper, I'm like an angel on the mountaintop The healing power of God is felt in every fountain drop I was not myself last night, in the morning light I can see the changes showing (Keep it moving now, keep it going now) As I lay there on the floor staring at the door with jaded eyes Like a child who was always poor, calling out for more I could feel the hunger growing Our father take these wings, show me a star that'll make me sing Change lives like Kanye, Jay-Z, Andre, we can get fly be free by Monday My grandmother paid dues in the church And for years I paid dues in the dirt I kept on as I aim true in the earth I cried many tears I had many fears, I had many I didn't have many pears ? I was not myself last night, in the morning light I can see the changes showing (Keep it moving now) As I lay there on the floor staring at the door with jaded eyes Like a child who was always poor, calling out for more I could feel the hunger growing (Uh huh, keep it moving now, keep it, ah, ah, ah)
