Hey J
It's been a long time since I've seen you last
A half and twenty-six years
(How time goes fast)
I'm well
Though I've gone through some deep changes in my life
It hasn't been easy
Oh no, not for me
It's been difficult at times
Sometimes I sit down and cry
And ask God, "Oh, why?"
(Fair, what is?)

I know how you're feelin
Same thing I did deal with
You're not as alone as you may feel
You see, but, oh 
It catches up to us fast
We have to deal with our past
I know it's painful but
There you'll find specialness
'Cause everybody needs to feel real special

We need to remember
That love lies deep within ourselves
We have to want it, so
It starts with us and only us
We must learn we're all born
With specialness inside of us
I have the need to feel real special too

You see
You can't run away from your pain
Because wherever you run
There you will be
You have to learn to water your spiritual garden
Then you will be free

I know how you're feelin
Same thing I did deal with
You're not as alone as you may feel
You see, but, oh 
It catches up to us fast
We have to deal with our past
I know it's painful but
There you'll find specialness
'Cause everybody needs to feel real special

We need to remember
That love lies deep within ourselves
We have to want it, so
It starts with us and only us
We must learn we're all born
With specialness inside of us
I have the need to feel real special too

Work in progress

Uh
Uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh
Nothing's gonna stop us
We can't be stopped
Uh
Uh, uh, uh

I know that it's not been easy
Tryin' to make it in this crazy world
The people around you try to stop you
Stomp you, sayin' that you don't belong

You must remember that (you must remember)
You were born with blood of kings and queens
And can't be stopped (we can't be stopped)
Stay strong my sister, you can't be stopped
(Stay strong, my sister)
No, you can't be stopped 
(My sister, you can't be stopped)

(Ahh-ahh, ahh-ahh)

I know that sometimes you get to feelin'
I've given up on you (uh, uh, uh)
The pressure seems to, to defeat you
Beat you, whenever you can't go on

You must remember that (you must remember)
You were born with blood of kings and queens
And can't be stopped (blood of kings and queens)
Stand tall my brother, you can't be stopped
(Stand tall, my brother)
(No) no, you can't be stopped
(No, you can't be stopped, uh)

Uh, uh
Uh
Don't ever let nobody tell you 
You ain't strong enough, uh

Strong enough
Don't let nobody tell you 
You ain't strong enough (uh, uh)
Don't let nobody tell you
You know that I will be right here (uh)
To remind you that we need togetherness
'Cause the long ride has not forgot you (uh, uh)
Don't forget where you come from

You must remember that (you must remember)
You were born with blood of kings and queens
And can't be stopped (blood of kings and queens)
Stay strong, my sister, you can't be stopped
(Sister, stay strong)
No, you can't be stopped 
(You can't be stopped, my sister)

You must remember that (you must)
You were born with blood of kings and queens
And can't be stopped (you can't be stopped)
Stand tall, my brother, you can't be stopped
(Stand tall, my brother)
No, you can't be stopped
(No, you can't be stopped)

Uh, uh
Uh
Uh, uh, uh

Strong enough (uh)
Don't let nobody tell you 
You ain't strong enough (uh, uh)
Don't let nobody tell you 
You ain't (uh)
(Uh, uh)
(Uh, uh)

Strong enough
Don't let nobody tell you 
You ain't strong enough (uh, uh)
Don't let nobody tell you 
You ain't (uh)
(Uh, uh)
(Uh, uh)
Strong enough
Don't let nobody tell you 
You ain't strong enough (uh)
