Catchu - LIVE at Scottsdale Arts Festival

After days of working long
Hours going on and on
Can't believe your money's low
You need your money just to grow
Never allow yourself contentment
Always remember that resentment
But your children they will watch
And do the same when they get jobs
Allow yourself some happiness
And always keep your head, keep your head

You got to...
Plant the seed and watch it blossom
Higher!

Push

Don't know how I got here
But I'm here to get healed
It's not in the tea leaves
And everything will be revealed

It's something that pulls us
Like a magnetic field
But now you're here with us
And we know that we are here to get healed

Come with us - come with us
Come with us - come with us
(Peace and blood my family) 
You're one of us- one of us
One of us - one of us
(It's the PAO way PAO way PAO way PAO way PAO way)

Not all will comprehend
And yes some may fear
Our strength is now legion
And it is held within our tears

They feed on your heartache
And they want you to bleed
But now that you're here with us
Yeah, we must help you all to breathe

Come with us - come with us
Come with us - come with us
(Peace and blood my family) 
You're one of us- one of us
One of us - one of us
(It's the PAO way PAO way PAO way PAO way PAO way)

Release all your hatred
For those who can't see
Our vision is grateful
And it is in love that we believe

Connected now stronger
Respect is our shield
Without you we falter
So we know that we are here to get healed

Come with us - come with us
Come with us - come with us
(Peace and blood my family) 
You're one of us- one of us
One of us - one of us
(It's the PAO way PAO way PAO way PAO way PAO way)

PAO KJZZ Interview November 18th, 2016

Now she may be young but she think she ready
She grow faster than anybody wanted
She tell you everything she getting
No no Can't keep her young forever

Now when she go in
No she no worry bout me
But when she get out
She become a woman

Go in
Get out
Woman

Now now we try to shelter the youth
We can't keep them from the moment of truth
Raise up go in the way that we teach
Please oh please don't you lower your reach

Now when she go in
No she no worry bout me
But when she get out
She become a woman

Go in
Get out
Woman
