Come away with me in the night Come away with me And I will write you a songCome away with me on a bus Come away where they can't tempt us, with their liesAnd I want to walk with you On a cloudy day In fields where the yellow grass grows knee-high So won't you try to comeCome away with me and we'll kiss On a mountaintop Come away with me And I'll never stop loving youAnd I want to wake up with the rain Falling on a tin roof While I'm safe there in your arms So all I ask is for you To come away with me in the night Come away with me

When the dreams you're dreaming come to you When the work you put in is realized Let yourself feel the pride but Always stay humble and kind

[alasoul]

It seems we living the american dream But the people highest up got the lowest self esteem The prettiest people do the ugliest things For the road to riches and diamond rings We shine because they hate us, floss cause they degrade us We’re trying to buy back our 40 acres And for that paper, look how low we’ll stoop Even if you in a Benz, you still a nigga in a coupe

I work very hard, and I play very hard. I'm grateful for life. And I live it - I believe life loves the liver of it. I live it.

You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may tread me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I'll rise. Does my sassiness upset you? Why are you beset with gloom? 'Cause I walk like I've got oil wells Pumping in my living room. Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I'll rise. Did you want to see me broken? Bowed head and lowered eyes? Shoulders falling down like teardrops. Weakened by my soulful cries. Does my haughtiness offend you? Don't you take it awful hard 'Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines Diggin' in my own back yard. You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I'll rise. Does my sexiness upset you? Does it come as a surprise That I dance like I've got diamonds At the meeting of my thighs? Out of the huts of history's shame I rise Up from a past that's rooted in pain I rise I'm a black ocean, leaping and wide, Welling and swelling I bear in the tide. Leaving behind nights of terror and fear I rise Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear I rise Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave, I am the dream and the hope of the slave. I rise I rise I rise.

You're here, I'm pleased - I really dig your company Your style, your smile, your peace mentality Lord, have mercy on me - I was blind, now I can see What a king's supposed to be Baby I feel free, come on and go with me

Please don’t come around me with that toxic energy my mental health is way too valuable & I refuse to let anyone ruin my inner peace.

might’ve got a little head, but i wasn’t really cheating. 

[alasoul]

love ain’t simple - why can’t it be? anything worth having you work at annually. 

[alasoul]

Why don't you turn around? Ignore all that shit from the outside The world is a nightmare Wake up and stay here

It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all but try not to lose it.
