We all wanna be loved, yeah
We all want just a little respect
We all wanna be loved
Tell me what's wrong with that
Oh, somebody tell me

'A rainy Monday afternoon
There's a funk over the city

[its just between you and me]
[Ive got something to say]
[i wanna get it straight]
[before the sun goes down]

Sorrow is a lonely feeling
Unsettled is a painful place
Ive lived with both for far too long now

People watching, every life a mystery
Sunny faces, but you know the stories incomplete
Satisfaction, seems a million miles away
So I'm moving to another state of mind
I'm believing there's no better place or better time

Everyday we live, there's a chance to give
Every time we speak, there's a chance for peace

[1, 1, 1, 1... 2, 2, 2, 2... 3, 3, 3, 3... 4, 4, 4, 4]

Pardon me, your epidermis is showing, sir
I couldn't help but note your shade of melanin
I tip my hat to the colorful arrangement
Cause I see the beauty in the tones of our skin

Lovely traces
I can sense You in everything
The way that You move me
Takes me far away
I seek no escape
I'm dreaming through Your eyes
I am wandering through Your mind
I'm overtaken by the way that You deliver me

[You want to take a dive?]
[Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah]
[Watch out]
[It's quite all right]
[Through the night]

I saw it all from my bubble on the 15th floor
I was so unaware as I sank into my leather chair

Separated, I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me I've divorced

I saw a man with tat on his big fat belly
It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
It took me a while to catch what it said

Young people
Welcome to the... heaven... ... and ministry tonight
Won't you please turn in your hymnals to page 333
Sister Mildred, we're gonna play free at last
Free at last, thank God almighty

Free at last, free at last
I thank God I'm free at last

Hoping, praying, I've been waiting
Everybody needs somebody to love
There's no question, straight from heaven
You're my angel, I'm so crazy for you

You're a Godsend
A blessing from above
You've been God-sent to me

Cut it up!
cut cut it, cut, cut, cut, cut it, cut it
cut, cut it, cut it up one time!
cut it up one time!
Hu, Heaven, hu,hu, huh heaven
Huh, Heavenbound!

Chorus:

Help! I need somebody
Help! Not just anybody
Help! Ya know I need someone
Help!

When I was young was so much younger than today
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone and I'm not so self-assured

[Do you copy?]

S-E-X is test when I'm pressed
So back up off with less of that zest
Impress this brother with a life of virtue
The innocence that's spent is gonna hurt you
Safe is the way they say to play
Then again safe ain't safe at all today

Some people out there givin' rap a bad name
Well I'm here to let you know, we ain't down with that

Come on
(Rap music)
The sound of the times, ya sorta talk lyrics to rhythm
And rhyme and then deliver in various ways
You know, some sorta preach, and some sorta play

"I Wish We'd All Been Ready"

Life was filled with guns and war
And all of us got trampled on the floor
I wish we'd all been ready
Children died the days grew cold
A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold
I wish we'd all been ready

[1, 2, 3]

I keep trying to find a life
On my own, apart from You
I am the king of excuses
I've got one for every selfish thing I do

What's going on inside of me?

Hello, goodbye
I wanted to see, but I guess I
I don't have the strength to speak tonight
It's tricky sometimes
When you wanted to run, you'd always hide
You can't find the truth behind the lies

Another day and I'm on my feet, yeah

That's great, it starts with an earthquake
Birds, snakes and airplanes
You know I am not afraid, yeah yeah yeah

Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs
Feed it like an aux feeds, grunt, no, strength, no
Ladder starts with a clattered gear found high

Separated, I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me I've divorced

I saw a man with tattoo on his big fat belly
It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
It took me a while to catch what it said

Jesus is still alright with me
Jesus is still alright, oh yeah
Jesus is still alright with me
Jesus is still alright

Toby Mac, and the Mac is back no slack
On a DC track that's jacked, beyond comprehension
I believe that I failed to mention that

Oldie but a goodie
1, 2, 3, funky
True MC, True MC
Everybody listens to the True MC

True MC, no slack on the track
Here to tell the people that love's what we lack
In this family we gotta love like Christ

[Take this... for a ride]

Down with the dc Talk, d- d- down with the dc Talk
Are you down with the dc Talk, d- d- down with the dc Talk

Pullin' out my big black book
Cause when I need a word defined that's where I look
So I move to the L's quick, fast, in a hurry

In my mind, I can see Your face
As Your love pours down in a shower of grace
Some people tell me that You're just a dream
My faith is the evidence of things unsee

In my mind's eye, in my mind's eye
In my mind's eye, in my mind

I'm setting the stage for, the things I love.
And I'm now the man I, once couldn't be.
Nothing on Earth could, now ever move me.
I now have the will and, the strength a man needs.

It's my will, and I'm not moving.
'Cause if it's your will, nothing can shake me.
It's my will, to bow and praise you

Ya know He's doin' it
God is doin' a nu thang
Ya know He's doin' it
God is doin' a nu thang

Ya know He's doin' it
God is doin' a nu thang
Ya know He's doin' it

Pages filled with a holy message
Sealed with a kiss from heaven
On a scroll long ago
Phrases, words that were bound together
Now have the power to sever
Like a sword evermore

Heed the words divinely spoken

(intro)
Was at the end of my rope, had nowhere to go
Was at the end of my rope, I had nothing to show
Until the day I turned to you, was at the end of my

[what? ]
[you talking to me? ]
[you talking to me? ]

I got something for you, man
Go for a ride

Bombarded by philosophies that satisfy the surface
I flee to something deeper
At the risk of seeking purpose
How can I hang in this environmental state of being
When everything I'm striving for

Movin' at the speed of sound
There has never been a lull in the motion
Conversations swirl around
Strangers questioning their devotion
Welcome to the world of talk shows
Where everybody seems to know

People talk and never listen

The other night I met a girl and she looked to be so nice
I asked her for the digits and she didn't think twice
A couple of days later called her up and asked her out
She said "Wit' you?" I said "Wit' me" and then she said "Without a doubt."
I took her to the Garden where I guess they grow the olives
She wore a tighter skirt than any I had seen in college
She said I love to smoke and drink while cursing like a sailor
I asked her where she got her mouth and if she had a tailor

Some people gotta learn the hard way
I guess I'm the kind of guy who has to find out for myself
I had to learn the hard way, Father
I'm on my knees and I'm crying for help

Now, I've been high and I've been low
I've been some places that you will not go
I never thought there would come the day

Truth gonna set you free
If you don't stand for something you'll fall for anything
Truth gonna set you free
It could set you free if you believe

I know that you know it's time to walk in the light You been blind for too long
Let truth give you back your sight Tell the devil, let him know that he's a lie
Don't let him stop you Tell him he gets no free

Seventy years is all we got
To accumulate goods that seem to mean a lot
For the first twenty years, you're off to school
Learnin' principles and learnin' the tools
To make lots of money, the ultimate goal
Gain the whole world and yet lose ya soul
Huh, humanism is on a roll

[It's, it's too short, it's too short]
[I have lots of time]
[They say time waits for no man]
[All the time]
[Waisted time, waisted time]
[Wait a minute]
[This'll just take a little time]
[Time out!]

Man against man just ain't the plan
It's time for God's people to take a stand
I mean brother to brother, black to white
Stand up to the problem and begin to fight
Not against each other, you're wastin' time
Yo, I'm referring to a battle of minds
Not through debate or writin' on the walls
This kinda action is delayin' the cause

We all want to be loved, yeah
We all want just a little respect
We all want to be loved
Tell me what's wrong with that
Oh, somebody tell me

A rainy Monday afternoon
There's a funk over the city

A preacher shuns his brother
Cause his bride's a different color
And this is not acceptable
His papa taught him so
It was love that he'd been preaching,
But this was overreaching
The boundaries stretching further
Than his heart would chose to go

[It's time ta jam!]

[Chorus:]
When DC talks
When DC talks
When DC talks
When DC talks

Ahh yeah, yeah
Here we go, yo
Kick it, T
Yo man, is in the house, yeah boy
DC's in the house, ahh yeah
K Max's in the house
[Incomprehensible]
Oh definitely
