Spread Love 07:26
Spread Love like fire Go ahead And shine 2x This little light of mine I’m gonna let it shine Let it shine 2x Let it shine 2x Have you ever done something that made you feel whole? Like giving a warm blanket to a homeless man in the winter. Do you ever get a deep sense of fulfillment after doing something you feel strongly about? It’s coming from a place of love. What’s happening in moments like these is you’re being yourself. And when you are that person, the light that you are shines. And you’re more than enough. Shine, shine shine I’m gonna let it shine Let it shine 2x Who told you You are not enough? Forget them In God we trust The god inside The mind The love The light 4x Spread Love like fire Go ahead And shine 4x Go ahead and shine

Now 03:31
VERSE 1 Another day Another dream alive To make real That which you desire You’re all that you believe So speak those words so sweet Inside (your mind) CHORUS May the sun shine upon you Touch and remind you to Love who You are, now May the wind carry love to Where it is that you Dwell and lift you, now Now VERSE 2 Another day To meditate To Find your peace For Giving thanks For Gratitude The attitude To elevate Empower you For all the things that are not serving you to go For all that heals the soul to come inside and flow CHORUS May the sun shine upon you Touch and remind you to Love who You are, now May the wind carry love to Where it is that you Dwell and lift you, now Now Now Right now Now

Find a Way 03:57
VERSE 1 Will we ever really be enough? Fighting ourselves for others love. Awkward living in our own skin What’s the point of us fitting in? Why does their view matter anyway? If we’re the ones in the mirror babe? Don’t let others take our joy away Who will we choose today? CHORUS Will we ever get away from self-destruction? No ones ever gonna save, us We gotta learn our lesson And find a way on our own We will find a way on our own VERSE 2 Everyone’s comparing; me and you Block the lies your mind is telling you More is right than any wrong with you You are enough It’s not about your shape or body weight Cars or houses or the cash you make Please don’t fuel your insecurities Your birthright is your vitality CHORUS Will we ever get away from self-destruction? No ones ever gonna save us We gotta learn our lesson And find a way on your own We will find a way on your own BRIDGE On your own On your own Will we ever get away? We will have to be brave CHORUS And find a way on our own We can find a way back home

Peace 04:08

VERSE 1 You give me all you got Never leave me wanting more No ordinary love Nothing that I’ve felt before And it Feels like I’m floating on a cloud in the sky Feels like I can fly, yeah yeah PRE-CHORUS You spread love, like fire I can’t see through the flames Do you ever tire? What made you this way? Because you are abundant love The kind I’m always dreaming of More than enough CHORUS Maybe this is love, overflow Love that has no where, else to go Got so much to give, you fill me up With overflowing love VERSE 2 Coming from a place where love was out of grasp Had to love myself Wasn’t too much to ask Believed in my visions and my hopes and my dreams I believed in me PRE-CHORUS And spread love, like fire Til you can’t see through the flames Didn’t ever tire, Had a will and found a way Because I am abundant love The kind that I was dreaming of I am enough CHORUS Maybe this is love, overflow Love that has no where, else to go You got so much to give, it fills me up This is overflowing love Overflowing Love

There’s something about your smile when you look my way I’m hoping to catch your eyes and that you stay Cause I feel your fire And it’s not the kind the hurts It’s the kind of love I deserve PRE-CHORUS I don’t really care where we go or what we do I just wanna spend quality time with you We can just hang out We can just chill No matter the time baby or / the place I just wanna see you face to face We can just talk about how We really feel CHORUS You make me Feel crazy But you… you make me soft inside I thought maybe You could see that you… you give me butterflies 🦋 you give me butterflies inside, inside, inside

VERSE 1 Do you remember… when we’d see each other at the public library? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I still remember… the night we saw each other at the game. You took me home, we danced the night away. May not remember everything that happened then til now, but there’s some things on which I like to reminisce. I won’t forget the night I talked you into taking me out. We were just friends, but I was thinking bout’... CHORUS Our first kiss oooh la la la la la la la laaaa Oooh la la la Our first kiss oooh la la la la la la la laaaa Oooh la la la VERSE 2 Do you remember… hanging out and having iced tea on the patio? (Passion tea remember? You liked yours extra sweet.) I remember… playing Brandy from my car, you shared Xavier Omar. (Mmm, and you knocked me off my feet.) May not remember everything that happened then til now, but there’s some things on which I like to reminisce. Do you remember when you took me to my mamas house? Just you and me and fireflies, the sunset sky and CHORUS Our first kiss oooh la la la la la la la laaaa Oooh la la la Our first kiss oooh la la la la la la la laaaa Oooh la la la BRIDGE Like fireworks on the 4th of July.... Like Stevie Wonders Ribbon in the Sky.... Like friends and lovers do on New Years Night Like the sparkles in your eyes... May not remember everything that happened then til now, but there’s some things on which I’d like to reminisce.. I’m so excited for our sandy feet digging in the ground. We’ll say I do and I love you and we’ll remember Our First… CHORUS Our first kiss! oooh la la la la la la la laaaa! Oooh la la la Our first kiss, yeah yeah yeah! oooh la la la la la la la laaaa Oh oh oooh oooh la la la Our first kiss, our first kiss, our first kiss… I’ll never forget.

VERSE 1 Taking it all In my own hands Feeling the time is now I can do anything I think I can No need to worry how I’m on my way Nothing’s stopping me Long as I believe Focus, what I see Is my dreams That’s where I must go My heart will follow As my spirit leads CHORUS I’m gonna take leap of faith I’m gonna move this mountain I’ll walk and I’ll run through the valleys Blessings, I will count them I’m gonna take a leap of faith VERSE 2 Sometimes I feel alone Like I’m in this on my own But there is one thing I know Ev-er-y where I go I got my guides with me They Write love on the wall Lift me when I fall Raise my head up high Grace me through it all Make me stand up tall, so CHORUS I’m gonna take leap of faith I’m gonna move this mountain I’ll walk and I’ll run through the valleys Blessings, I will count them I’m gonna take a leap of faith VERSE 3 I’m on a mission My journey is fixed and I’m seeing the light and I don’t need permission I’m not gonna miss this I’ve been waiting For a moment Like this one For all my life CHORUS I’m gonna take leap of faith I’m gonna move this mountain I’ll walk and I’ll run through the valleys Blessings, I will count them I’m gonna take a leap of faith
