lyrics

You’ve been waiting on the right time
When you think all of the stars have aligned
Joy and happiness eludes you
You say chasing love is what those fools do

Built a shell you feel protects you
But inside the loneliness affects you
Working hard to be the strong one
Deep in your heart you don’t want that burden

You want more, you gotta say so
I know you feel it all in your soul
Admit the truth yes you deserve joy
Give in to it yes you do have the choice

Sick of going through the motions
Legs are tired running from emotions
You’ve denied yourself for too long
Owe it to yourself to sing a new song

Vulnerable is not a weakness
If anything it can be a strength
There’s no shame in what you’re feeling
You are one step closer to your healing

You want more, you gotta say so
I know you feel it all in your soul
Admit the truth yes you deserve joy
Give in to it yes you do have the choice
You want more, say so

it’s ok to say the words now
I know it’s hard to let your guard down
There’s so much we have to unlearn
It’s ok to say I want more

You want more, you gotta say so
I know you feel it all in your soul
Admit the truth yes you deserve joy
Give in to it yes you do have the choice
You want more, say so

Abstractions
by Zo! & Tall Black Guy

Wonderful series of collaborations showcasing a breadth of soul, rooted in Detroit's rich musical history. Filled with chunky hip-hop and r&b-infused licks, touches of house and breakbeat and a wonderful cast of guest vocalists, it's a really rich album that rewards you on repeated listens. Jason Piper
