Whether on your own?
Or through a friend.
Anyway, you find him?
Is all that matter?

Whether in prison?
Or from someone on the street?
Anyway, you find the lord?
Is all that matter?

If you need a protector?
Better than any wall that built.
You find in the lord all kinds of strength.

Whether in the book(the holy book).
Or a handout pamphlet?
Anyway, you find him?
Is all that matter.

And you can't miss him?
Cause God is everywhere.

Never far away, (God is)
Never far away (Just call upon him)
When back into a corner and need help?

Just call upon the lord.
He is there in an instance.
Cause he's never far away.
Yes, never far away. (God is)

He fair to everyone.
And hold us all accountable.
But it's his love for us at all time that let us know.
He never far away. (God is)

When others tear you down.
He pushes you to rise.
When others turn a blind eye.
He makes you realize your action.

I just know..
I just know..
God is never far away from you.

Never, never, never, never, never.
Far away from you.

Comments come quickly when you're famous.
Instantly guilt before you convicted by whom?
Us, the judge and the jury.

We weren't there.
Except, we act we were.
Ask yourself?
Do we truly know what went down?

R. Kelly, instant guilt.
According to a few and most be right.
It's his track record in certain cases.
Except, some cases must be questioned.
Women, in his mansion?
Are they kept with locks and chains?
Or groupies latched onto him.

If this the case?
All prostitutes need to convicting their pimps.
They were manipulated too.

With Bill Cosby, to some, it's up in the air.
Although he was found guilty by jurors.
But some facts must be questioned.

But certain ladies in society decide to avoid the truth.
Did he make you?
Or like many using drugs as an excuse?

Doesn't matter?
We the judge and the jury?
We just don't have the robe on.

Strangest thing, if it was us?
We are on the defense too.
Just trying to prove the masses that they are wrong.

We hear constantly about Berry Gordy.
Yes, constantly.
Next, probably be Smokey.

Except, let's be real.
Every recording group that hit higher height contributed to the success of the company.

We very aware of the great composers/lyricists and producers.

Every Supremes there have ever been.
Were vital to the label staying vibrant.
Whether it was Diana or Jean the hits kept coming.

Who?
Can't recall the voice?
A man name David Ruffin.
A shadow in the background that rose to the vocal call to lead.
Made the group more known but stay a member of strength with Eddie and Paul.
The group just can't escape them.

Got more magnified with Dennis Edwards on lead.

Somehow, many has regulated  Mary Wells to a lower level.
But it was her that placed the label in the spotlight.

We edit down, what we don't want known?
But many contributed to Motown success.

Stevie Wonder, Sylvia Moy, Clarence Paul, William Stevenson, the brothers of the Funk sound.
Marvin Gaye, Ivy Jo Hunter, Harvey Fugua, Johnny Bristol and all those that came later.

We know the success of Ashford and Simpson.

And truth be known and never spoken.
The label didn't start out trying to appear to a boarder market.
Just a company trying to make it.

Flower grow.
They bloom.
They challenge you to see beauty.
They leave a vital impression upon you.
Like a rose that shine.

Her strength was within.
Nothing new to those that was close to her.
Some on this earth you can instantly see love.

Rosa Park, was this and more.
Where?
We are now.
Is because of her?

So she doesn't have an assigned special day.
But maybe he wouldn't either, if she hadn't taken a stand.
And it happen when she stood up to a command.

In other words she rose higher through her own power.

Open your front door and see love out there.
Open your window and hear love out there.

Even open the back door and see love out there.
The world's not bad, it's just our impression,

Instead of happiness, we see sadness.
Instead of love, we see hate.
Which are our first major mistakes?

Open your arms with warmth and welcome someone.
Open your eyes with sight and see the love of someone.

God created it and only ask us to spread it.
If we teach it?
It will grow.
It's the first thing every baby born know.

The eyes record
The hands' touch
The voice soothes
The heart explores its feeling

Leave you reeling
Leave you melted for that lover

The brain controls us and more likely confuse us.
Except, its what lead us?
Truly, into us being loved.

The body is a magnet of  trouble
