homeboy Jeffrey Gaines – Safety in Self
Now we must find a new safety in self
And implement all that we’ve learned
Now is the time to find our own wealth
And stand on our own So much we have grown
From knowing youI know this loss was intended
To let us all begin
And to give up now would be a sin
We can’t fall down
We’ve got to keep marching
Just One Thing
I used to have a plan
Had one thing in my life that I could understand
But then I tried to have it all
And my one thing was the first to fallNow I go around place to place, town to town
Looking for just one thing
Now without a sound
Face to face in the crowd
I can’t feel one thingI used to be assured
Never in my life was I to be ignored
But I let it go to my head
All my lovers left me lying in a cold bed
