A Long Walk (The Jazzy Jeff Redux) - Jill Scott

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

Let's take a long walk,

Around the park, after dark

Find a spot for us to spark

Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation

Share our situations,

Temptations, education, relaxations,

Elevations

Maybe we can talk about Surah 31: 18

Your background, it ain't squeaky clean

Shit, sometimes we all gotta swim upstream

You ain't no saint, we all are sinners,

But you put your good foot down to make your soul the winner

I respect that

Man you're so phat,

And you're all that

Plus supreme

Then you're humble

Man I'm numb yo,

With feelin'

I can feel everything that you bring

Let's take a long walk,

Around the park, after dark

Find a spot for us to spark

Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation

Share our situations,

Temptations, education, relaxations,

Elevations

Maybe we can talk about Revelations 3: 17

Or maybe we can see a movie

Or maybe we can see a play

On Saturday

Or maybe we can roll a tree

And feel the breeze

And listen to a symphony

Or maybe chill and just be

Or maybe

Maybe we can take a cruise

And listen to The Roots

Or maybe eat some passion fruit

Or maybe, cry to the blues

Or maybe we could just be silent...

Come on

Come on

Let's take a long walk,

Around the park, after dark

Find a spot for us to spark

Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation

Share our situations,

Temptations, education, relaxations,

Elevations

Maybe we can talk about Psalms in entirety

Let's take a long walk,

Around the park, after dark

Find a spot for us to spark

Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation

Share our situations,

Temptations, education, relaxations,

Elevations

Maybe we can talk about Psalms in entirety

Or maybe we can see a movie

Or maybe we can see a play

On Saturday

Or maybe we can roll a tree

And feel the breeze

And listen to a symphony

Or maybe we can chill and just be

Or maybe

Maybe we can take a cruise

And listen to The Roots

Or maybe eat some passion fruit

Or maybe, cry to the blues

Or maybe we could just be silent...

Come on

Let's take a long walk,

Around the park, after dark

Find a spot for us to spark

Conversation, verbal elation, stimulation

Share our situations,

Temptations, education, relaxations,

Elevations

Maybe baby,

Maybe we can save the nation

Come on

Come on...
