No Way Out
I'd play my records and look at the album cover at the rock star
Sometimes I'd check out the R&B
But the polka, salsa classical scene just was not me
I wanted to be like Bootsy, Dr. Funkenstein or Jimi the rock star
Color meant nothing to me
Everything was equal as far as I could see
Ignorant to the racist music industry music industry music industry
Music industry... White rock star
Everywhere I look... White rock star
Read it in the paper... White rock star
Watch it on TV... White rock
Because You Loved Me
for all those times you stood by me
for all the truth that you made me see
for all the joy you brought to my life
for all the wrong that you made right
for every dream you made come true
for all the love i found in you
i'll be your everything for baby,
your the one who held me up never let me fall
your the one who saw me through
through it all
chorus:
you were my strenghth when i was weak
you were my voice when i couldnt speak
you were my eyes when i couldnt see
you saw the faith there was in me
lifted me up when i couldnt reach
you gave me faith cau se you belived
im everything i am because you love me
you gave me wings and made me fly
you touch my hand i could touch the sky
i lost my faith you gave it back to me
you said no star was out of reach
you stood by me and i stood tall
i had your love i had it all
im crazy for each day you gave me
maybe i dont know that much
but i know this much is true
i was blessed because i was loved by you
chorus:
you were my strenghth when i was weak
you were my voice when i couldnt speak
you were my eyes when i couldnt see
you saw the faith there was in me
lifted me up when i couldnt reach
you gave me faith cause you belived
im everything i am because you love me
you were always there for me
a tender wind that carried me
light in the dark
shining your love into my life
you've been my insoiration
through the lies you were the truth
my world is a better place because of you
chorus(repeat x2)
im everything i am because you love me
