Never Can Say Goodbye

Never Can Say Goodbye [Michael Jackson Remixx Re-arrangement]

Call on the cell
My building bell doesn't work
Crowds reached an overestimated alert
Change of location, seems my place is too small, ya'll
I know another place where we'll have a ball ,.. and groove

On the roof
And, we're having a party
on the roof

Rule number one, please stay away from the ledge
I can't relax if all my nerves are on edge
Bring all the beverages
and I'll bring the food
We'll dance to music that was funky and memorable, too

on the roof
We're having a party
on the roof
We're gonna check out the city
from the roof
Check out the fireworks display
from the roof.

Turn down the D.J!
Someone called the police
But that won't stop us from getting our release.
Two in the morning and a Saturday mood.
Grab everything. We'll move the party to some other roof.

Continue 
to have us a party
on the roof
We're gonna check out the city
from the roof
Check out the fireworks display, what a sight to say
from the roof.
It keeps me up off the ground
The roof.
And brings me closer to God
The roof.

On the roof
On the roof
On the roof

Party On The Roof

I Want To Take You Higher

Do you remember when as kids we all felt
That naughty actions bear no prize
A year of promise that we'd never mess up
'Cause Santa brings toys during Christmas times.
Plump & round with a white beard in red flannel
with smooth lamb sheared cottony seamed ends
Is he real or some guy
like your dad in some guise so quietly
helping make this Christmas real

Those with memories of themselves making lists
And mom would mail our wish list out
Counting days would make impatience build up
and planning a ploy to stay awake
But then our little eyelids would fade
Into dreams you've dreamt since knowin' Nick the Saint
And the tree adorned with lights
and your presents all lying around with family, makes this Christmas real
And you tear open all
To the caroling sounds of old ... [Family makes this Christmas real]

Snowy mounds, where we dive in to play
Unlike kids who spend each Noel instead
In serene tropic isles
Where the heat dissolves ice, regardless
Family makes this Christmas real

A month where peace voiced in love
Should be a round year clarion call

Today ,..
welcomes He that is born
To inspire light in all

My, my ,.. my, my

Family Makes Christmas Real

The skinny sound
Is a sound that's skinny
So slim & so slender
with a width so itty-bitty
The skinny sound
Is put together quickly
Not years to completion
But rather succinctly

The skinny sound
[SKINNY]

The skinny sound
Can't handle much weight
But it will if it has to
If it needs to orchestrate
The skinny sound
Is simple & linear
It makes it all digestible
And so easy to remember
The skinny sound
Is plus-size in appeal
Its "less is more" doctrine
Is how it's audience feeds

The skinny sound
[SKINNY]

The skinny sound
May seem kinda bland,
But the kind of song that you
Can play at an open jam
The skinny sound
Is all about truth
No need to embellish
To make it sound more cute
The skinny sound
It is what it is
Gon' do what it do
And risk what it will risk
The skinny sound
Will keep ya'll dancing
It'll seem like a relative
Cause the sound is your exact twin

The skinny sound
[SKINNY]

The Skinny Sound

Just Trying To Be Your Friend

So many minutes count the day
When you count the hours, not the same
So many wages out your pay
Taking home the gross, "fant-a-say"
Riding the same ol' subway route
Going broke just flowing fro & to
It's come to living with some man
Though you love him so, 'half the rent

Getting by
Getting by

Playing a million lotto games
Hoping one's the shortest cut to fame
A single mother gets no time
Raising one so young, inner child

Oh, just doing enough to toughen up
So grueling getting by
Just doing enough to toughen up
So grueling getting by

So many minutes count the day
When you count the hours
Oh, riding the same old subway home, yeah
It's come to living
Playing a million lotto games
Hoping one …
A single gets no time

Getting By

Change!
Change!
Use of Change
Remedy for the boring & blah!
Use of change
Designates all the movements in life
Use of change
Helps the will make you want to survive

Use of change
turns a pitched low maladious vibe
To vast rain ... bows of sweet flowing melody lines
Look, through change
Made the Veep role a woman this time
Use of change
Making peace out of war for the child

The winter, summer, springtime, fall
So seasonal 
The winter, summer, springtime, fall
We need 'em all

Oh, to show that change
Never, ever, really stays the same
It inevitably shifts to shape
Just to fit in anything it craves
And it never fails to feed to fuel
Cause the recipe to fuel is you
If it can't alter me it will be Klaatu
It'll stop everything to show that change always goes through

Use of change!

I’m Not Free Till I’m Free

I couldn't care less! I couldn't care less 

I'm thinking 'bout the ways 
I can slip away 
From a situation that keeps me 
Down and bent 
Sleepy, high, content 
Drinking, drowned in debt 
Slowly cloning me to be you inside 
My feelings got away 
Thinking ardor saves 
But it wasn't ready for Juliet' mal-intent. 

I don't like you 
I sure find you 
Vile, unkind, cruel 
Lies cosign you 
I don't like you 
Why? You're psycho 

I couldn't care less! I couldn't care less 

I think about the times 
I imagined I'm 
Stepping up to you with a catatonic stare 
Push you down the stairs 
Vanquish into air 
Still would only link me to you despite 
I'm seething. I'm a rage 
Yippee ki yo ki-yay 
Treat you like a plague, got to keep you miles away 

I don't like you 
I sure find you 
Vile, unkind, cruel 
Lies cosign you 
I loathe I'm glued 
Tied, caught by you 
I won't cry should 
Lightning strike you 

I couldn't care less! I couldn't care less 

I don't like you (I don't like you) 
I sure find you (I sure find you ...) 
Vile, unkind, cruel (vile, a guile, a tyrant, too) 
Lies cosign you (Pretty sick of you) 
I loathe I'm glued (I loathe ...) 
Tied, caught by you (caught by you) 
I won't cry should (FREE!) 
Lightning strike you 

I don't like you 
I sure find you 
Vile, unkind, cruel (Please) 
Lies cosign you (Somebody, please …) 
I loathe I'm glued (Smite you, smite you, smite you) 
Tied, caught by you 
I won't cry should (Please! Somebody) 
Lightning strike you (Somebody, PLEASED) 

I couldn't care less! I couldn't care less 
I couldn't care less! I couldn't care less

I Couldn’t Care Less

The old man in the window
He's there everyday
As soon as I walk by
he raises the shades
So happy to see me
He gives me a wave
and a smile

The old man in the window
Withered and worn
Had so much to offer
from yesterday's gone
He's closer to Heaven
than where he came from
As a child

Just to think when I saw him first
I said, "There's a grumpy old man"
Then he changed everything I thought 
with a smile that said, "Hello friend."
Then I thought, "Take a different route
I'm not about to wave everyday"
Then I thought what if I'm the only one who's making his day

The old man in the window
I'm thinking about
If the curtains are pulled down
I'm filled up with doubt
But then I'll be happy
When I see his eyes
He's alive!

I Can't Control Myself Tonight

know a place where I can go anytime
Where all my dreams seem to materialize
See when life’s a pain hold everything
I just let my mind
drift away

I know a place in thought where peace isn’t wrong
And though that peace could just be few minutes long
It’s few minutes I may never see
So I just let time
Drift away … [on on & on & on]

Drift away
Drift away
Oh I’m dreaming my whole life away

Empty lives aflame, imploding
and Armageddon grows everywhere … [on & on]
So I glide back into my own world
where tears of the past
drift away ... [on on & on & on & on[

Drift away
We’re gonna drift away
Come on ya’ll. The world’s too glum a place

Drift away
We’re gonna drift away
“So long” to the fiend in you

See within my soul
I’ve got to know a peace I just won’t find anywhere

So I glide back into my own world
where tears of the past
drift away

So I glide back into my own world
where fears of the past
drift away

So I glide back into my own world
where years of the past
drift away

So I glide back into my own world
where tears of the past
drift away

This track is another movement in the style of "Musique Noire", a style or category begun by DIGG DEEP. The song is about finding peace within yourself. With all the riots and chaos happening around us near and far, at times the only escape is within the pure state of your heart and mind. You're able to build your own world where everything is love and happiness.

Drift Away

"Don't Wait; She's Gone" is about two people who can't hold on to each other. They love each other and yearn to be happy but arguments and tension drive them apart each time. The young lady sees everything for what it is and takes the initiative of going separate ways. The young gentleman wants to hold on to everything and not face reality. he slowly ends up drowning himself in alcohol as his friends try to convince him to move on. Sadly he would rather dwell in the past.

That Wall

Twas the night before Christmas day
First time that I saw your face
Fell in love with you instantly
Very special night for me

Though your feelings right there weren't the same
Girl, I knew in time your feelings would change 
I can't get along without you
With you, I'll always stay
If I'm present in body
I will think of you everyday

From my mind you would never depart
That's how positive I was from the start

Dreams of marriage & kids we'd play
I don't want those dreams to stray
Santa sent me the gift I've craved
Hence, I'll forever love you baaaaaaby 

Are you ready for a midnight mass?
Are you ready for a midnight dance?
Planning where to trade vows, and
Travelling ,.. [on an' on] on a sleigh, bright red.
