Brother Ali - So Dearly скачать видео бесплатно

[Lyrics]

I just, I have a hard time... sometimes tryin' to explain it , you know what i mean...

cause like emotions... it gets so, so much sometimes... and a... I mean... it's just kinda...

I don't know man... it's just the whole way that it happened... it's just...

She had the brown West-African features

She was lookin' sweet as peaches

On a Georgia spring day

What a thing to say

Little or no make-up

Covered her face up

But brother when she smiles

She light the whole place up

She was covered from the waist up

In a pastel pink scarf

She's soft

And Modest with the way that she talk

In my thoughts she keep me company when

We were apart

Early on I felt that she would own a piece of my heart

Out of respect

I kept my distance in the physical

But moved in on the mental and emotional

'Til she seemed more approachable

So hopeful I had never been, casanova

I had never been

She's probably been approached by better men

But then again

I please the earth-citizen

She probably like religious men

That's something that most are considerin'

I sat back and thought about it

and reflect

If I approach her with respect

Our roads have gotta intersect

Ahhh

It got deeper said her

name Latifah, "Glad to meet cha

Heard you was a preacher

Maybe later we'll speak"

I felt numb, dizzy

Body tingelin', thinkin' what to say next

Ready to sign over my paychecks

No disguise

On the blessing

From her eyes

I was guessin'

She had been through

Enough to know the evil that some men do

I felt the pain

I'll be your umbrella in the rain

Body yell her name

After that I never felt the same

She felt warm to me

Her eyes sang a song to me

She long for me

To touch her I can feel it

But too shy to reveal it

The strong attraction started creepin' in

We can spin together through the universe

But must become a unit first

We ain't had money for the big wedding receptions

But we had the real commitment

And the priceless connection

The mere mention of the name Latifah

Sets me deep into the ocean

With no scuba dive suit

this girl is potion

When I'm in pain

All she has to do is put a hand on me

Y'all ain't understandin' me

She, bring out the man in me

She, ain't afraid to challenge me

She, know how to handle me

We, gonna build this a family

Strong upon reality

Together in the Jihad

We struggle tryin' to please god

With each and every aspect of life

We increase

And with each passing of year

Is more and more clear

That god is the reason that we're both still here

If we follow his directions

We're expectin' his protection

And I'm carving out a section

Of this earth for us to rest in

I'm strivin'

I'm never satisfied in just survivin'

Strivin' to provide a life in which your soul feel alright in

You're a priceless diamond

At your feet is where the paradise is lyin'

Even the nicest rhyme in the world couldn't explain it

This is just my attempted document

The blessin' that

Walked into my life one afternoon

I love you...
