I can smell your nature, in the air The sweet liberation, that you wear And I just gotta say: namaste, namaste Pretty lady I'll be headed your way Cause I dare to imagine The law of attraction in play Chorus: While we're riding on the wings of love Riding on the wings of love Flying high & lovin the rush Riding in the wings of love I want to look into the windows of your soul And take a dive inside your rivers of gold (and I'm told) Seek search & honey you shall find But when you take it baby, take your time If you wanna imagine The law of attraction in flight [Chorus] You & I, flyin high day & night, on the wings of love Eagle eye, let's take a ride to paradise, on the wings of love [Chorus 2x]

Stepped up in the spot, so hot was the one I saw Good lord she was rockin, and just dropping was every jaw I had to get close, cause she was workin like a 9-5 She took me right by her hand and said: "baby are you ready to fly?" Chorus: Cause I'm ready to lift off Until the sky comes falling down I'm ready to lift off Until the sun comes back around I'm ready to lift off Into the wind without a bound Baby, let's lift off Away from here to higher ground Because nothin here can hold our spirits down Sometimes it don't matter, what you're goin through As long as you know, just where you're going to I wanna fly high, so I'm willing to sacrifice Everything I used to be just to make it into paradise [Chorus] Alright She hit me hard like She hit me hard like uhhh uhhh Whew!

4.	You Think This Is A Game? 02:02	lyrics	buy track
Wait, so lemme get this straight: you think this is a game? What a shame Many miles we came, to light the world with this flame And you, you think this is a game? Muddy water down my kitchen drain, and it only quenches my pain And you, you think this is a game? See we strive to be the change, that we need to see the change And you, you think this is a game? And lastly, to protect and serve us the clam, while many lives are slain And you, oooo you think this is a game? We play on playa, or play on playette Clearly what you see, isn't what you get Well if to you this is a game, lemme say Before you weigh in: consider yours truly the coldest one playin
