1.Rock It

Philip bailey, verdine white, sonny emory, sheldon reynolds,
morris pleasure & sir james bailey

Peace, peace to all the wonderful people
In the east, west, north & south
Yea, - ewf comin at ya '96 style

Let us run it down
On yawl now
Energy inspires
Dino hypes da place 'pon bass how
Crowds heat up the fire

Now '95 found high night flyin'
Tight as sonne e
Mo pleasure chords towards
Groovin' yours
We mash up st. marteen
(and it's all good)

We dig each gig together
Gettin downs the business
We're just hittin' yo town tonight
Come on go on
Lets live this big forever
Ain't no limits on night flyin oow
Just get on down

Soul people, get on down
Ya love's showin'
Slick dis feelin's peace
Teddy bear rock steady
Every bodys out their seat
World wide live ya'll make it bang
Why this thang's da one
Bus to plane to bullet train
Just gettin off & havin' fun

We dig each gig together
Gettin downs the business
We're just hittin' yo town tonight
Come on go on
Lets live this big forever
Ain't no limits on night flyin oow
Just get on down.


2.In The Name Of Love

Maurice white, sheldon reynolds, betty reynolds, melanie andrews
& morris pleasure

Yeah

Woke up feeling good today
Gonna make good with the things i say
Never forgettin' where i came from
Or my people, that i love

Gonna sing for the people
In the name of love
Let your voices ring
Gonna sing a little louder

Let your voices ring
Gonna sing a little louder
In the name of love
Let every heart sing
Bop-ba, bop-ba

Reminiscin' on what we've done
All around the world i'm speaking of
Just the good things we wanna focus on
All the bad things turn to stone

Come on sing it now in the name of love
Come on keep it real
Oooh, we need to know how you feel
Come on, sing now if you feel the love
Get up and show, if you feel it

Bop-ba, bop-ba a da di
In the name of love
Bop-ba, bop-ba a da di
Let the voices sing

We do it all in the name of love


3.Revolution

Maurice white, sonny emory, morris pleasure & sir james bailey

Change been da same
Growing pains
Since love begun da game
Thangs do they thang
Through the strain
To the plane they're born to be
Harmony of diversity
Sing responsibility
(from you & me)
Sankofa!
Stand for yours!
Unite humanity
(for you & me)

Know (grow show)
Pure love
Revolution just evolution
This war zone is not a home
Grow and show
Pure love
Revolution just evolution

Bless our sisters, fathers,
Mothers, brothers, (steve bikos)
Who press us ahead of schools
Taught us right been
Condemned to win
And said keep the golden rule
(show unto others pure love, children)
Harmony of our diversity
Means accoutability
The sacrifice been paid
The price, 'nuff blood shed
To beg us to see
(be true indeed, true indeed, yeah)

Affirmative
Action attack
Social welfare cutbacks
Klans without hats runnin' prison camps
Peelin' caps
Of mumia's, gonzolo's, peltier's & geronimo pratts
Beat down and shot in the back
Over some don't cross the border crap
Now how we act
Ain't up to us
If trully be in god we trust
But must we stand for the lust
To make our ducs and live
Big up rauf-move ona move
Ya dig
Revolution


4.When Love Goes Wrong

Philip bailey, alan glass & andre kippel

It's a moonlight night, a hot july, a rainy day in august
Well it doesn't matter where you are everything is magic
Ain't it strange that love can make you feel
Like you're floating on air
You can see some good in everyone anywhere
That's when you least expect the pain
Here comes the rain
What's the mystery of change, that no one knows

When love goes wrong, nothing goes right
Days last so long, the lonely nights
When love goes wrong

It's the thrill you feel, when sex appeals
Pounding you like thunder
When that someone's there to pull you in
It's in a spell you're under
Ain't it strange that love can make you feel
Like you're floating on air
You can see some good in everyone anywhere
Well it doesn't matter who or what ya going through
If the table turns on you, then you will know

So if you've got someone to love,
Love them while you can
If you got someone to hold, don't throw it away

When love goes wrong you fall apart
Try as you might, a broken heart.


5.Fill You Up

Ralph tres'vant, ralph hawkins jr, paul minor, kevin guillaume &
damian johnson

Ten o'clock, in my ride
Drivin down the 95
Gettin to my baby's house
Is all that i can think about
Champagne, moonlight
It's gonna be a lovers night
Anticipation is in the air
And all i want to do is share my love

Girl i'm never gonna give you up
All i wanna do is fill you up (with love)
I can never get enough
All i wanna do is fill you up (with love)
Deep inside of me it's building up
All i wanna do is fill you up (with love)
I can never ever get enough
All i wanna do is fill you up

All alone, cuddled up
Tv off, the music's soft
Fingers up and down my spine
And that's when things intensify
Kiss me here (kiss me)
Touch me there (touch me right there)
Your body turns me on i swear
Can't resist i want you much
Come here let me fill you up with love

Girl you know your
(always)
On my mind
(day & night)
Anytime
(that you need)
Some tender love
(i'll be there)
To fill you up with love


6.The Right Time

Maurice white, sheldon reynolds, paul minor & melanie andrews

I'll give you love, i'll open up
My heart to you, girl
Cause you're the one, i've waited for
Baby, all of my life... it's you baby

(i'm ready, i'm ready, baby, can't you see)
And this time, it's the right time, baby...for love
It's the right time, lady, to make you mine
And this time, it's the right time, baby
Oh, it's the right time, honey, to make you mine

I promise, girl, that i'll be there
Ain't goin no where, this time
Won't hesitate, cause love don't wait
For anyone, not anyone...no, baby

There comes a time in every man's life
He opens his eyes and then he realizes true love
Baby, this time i'll give my all to you
Cause it's the right time for love
Can't you see that


7.Round And Round

Scott mayo & wil wheaton jr.

Called you up last wednesday morning
Wanna go to lunch to see you smile
Said you had to wait til evening
Gotta make a run got another one on the line
Don't you know your love is mine

Round and round
You're taking me baby
Round and round
Round and round
It's driving me crazy
Round and round

If you'd let me girl i'd show you love
Stronger than you ever seen
Maybe that's not what you're thinking of
Cause you gotta make a run got another one on the line
Love like this is hard to find

You can't keep doing me worng
In my heart there's love so strong
Round & round & round i go
When i stop you'll never know


8.Keep It Real

Maurice white, sheldon reynolds, morris pleasure, paul minor &
melanie andrews

Gotta be right gotta hold tight my baby
Cause you're my lady you're the one
Love just don't happen overnight my honey
Let's take out time baby
And make it right

Cause i want to love you (keep it real)
And i want to trust you (can you girl)
Cause i really need you (can you keep it real with me)

My hearts been going around in circles looking for you
Baby you're the one
Might take more than just a day or two
To make sure our love is true
This is what we need to do

Make sure the love is true (keep it real)
Invest the time in you (can you girl)
Cause my love is coming through (can you)
Can you keep it real for me

Gone tomorrow here today
These are all the games we play
Baby keep it real


9.Cruising

Philip bailey, roxanne seeman, morris pleasure & sonny emory

Melodies without a sound kissing you
Million miles up off the ground it's what you do..
Don't need no one to rescue me you feel so good
Nothing sends me there the way that you could

Cruising on a journey to your heart
Cruising every secret little part

When you're making love with me

I want to be lost in your love night and day
And let the sight of every star light the way

Cruising on a journey to your heart
Cruising every secret little part
Cruising to eternal mysteries
Cruising when you're making love to me

Making love with me
Rockets are blasting off
Time is set free
The way

You're making love to me

Cruising on a journey to your heart
Cruising every secret little part
Cruising to eternal mysteries
Cruising when you're making love to me


10.Love Is Life(Re-Make From 1971)

Maurice white, wade flemons & don whitehead

Have you ever, seen a flower
Tryin to bloom in a dry barren land
But then comes a sweet, sweet shower,
Just to lend a helping hand

Like the love of you & i
All at once it came alive
You brought love
And your love is life

Did you ever watch a mother and how tender
She teaches a child
And the birds in the treetop, how
They protect their young from the wild

Girl your love, it comforts me and
That's my security
You brought me love and
Your love is life

Oh oh oh...

Now this is a song of love
Let everybody sing along for love

Yea, yea, yea,
