Hey J
 It's been a long time since I've seen you last
 half and twenty-six years
 (how time goes fast)

 I'm well
 Though I've gone through some deep changes in my life
 It hasn't been easy
 Oh no not for me

 It's been difficult at times
 Sometimes I sit down and cry
 And ask God oh why
 (fair... what is?)

[BRIDGE:]
 I know how you're feelin
 Same thing I did deal with
 You're not as alone as you may feel
 You see but oh it catches up to us fast
 We have to deal with our past
 I know it's painful but
 There you'll find specialness
 Cuz everybody needs to feel real special
 [bad word] ]
 We need to
 Remember
 That love lies deep within ourselves
 We have to
 Want it so
 It starts with us and only us
 We must learn
 We're all born
 With specialness inside of us
 I have the need to feel real special too

 You see
 You [bad word] away from your pain
 Because wherever [bad word]  There you will be

 You have to learn
 To water your spiritual garden
 Then
 You will be free

[BRIDGE]
 [bad word] (2x)]

 Work in progress

Nothing's gonna stop us
 We can't be stopped

 I know that it's not been easy
 Trying to make it in this crazy world
 People 'round you try to stop you
 Stomp you saying that you don't belong

 You must remember that
 We were born with blood of kings and queens
 And can't be stopped
 Stay stronger my sister you can't be stopped
 No, you can't be stopped

 I know that sometimes
 You get to feelin' I've given up on you
 The pressure seems to, to defeat you
 Beat you when you feel you can't go on

 You must remember that
 You were born with blood of kings and queens
 And can't be stopped
 Stay stronger my brother you can't be stopped
 No, you can't be stopped

 Don't ever let nobody tell you you ain't strong enough
 Strong enough, don't let nobody tell you you ain't
 Strong enough, don't let nobody tell you

 You know that I will be right here
 To remind you that we need
 Togetherness, 'cause lost pride
 Has no room, if you don't forget
 Where [bad word] from
