Modern Time - Meshell Ndegeocello

You can stop

Wanting

You can stop

Wanting

You can stop

Wanting

You can stop

Wanting

Betwixt and between the things

That you have not yet discovered

Let it carry you and me

Over the river then wash us down

Lift us out of this thrashing life

I want out of rat on top of rat

I’ll race you down to the water

You can stop

Wanting

The good life

You can stop

Darkness

You can stop

Light

You can stop

Health

You can stop

Wanting

The good life

Wanting

Low low down

When the farmer harvest the rice she go

Low low down

Low low down

Low low down

I want my sons to know

Sweet joy

I want my sons to know

Sorrow

Both bring pain to most

So please remember

You can’t stop

You can’t stop

You can’t stop

You can’t stop

You can’t stop
