Take Time
Music & Lyrics: Lenny Kravitz

You can have it if you really want
You can grasp it if you have the thought
Feel your power that is deep within
Are you ready?
On your mark begin

We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
We should take time out to really love

Do you feel your life's a big mistake?
Don't you hate the way it's all so fake?
All I wanna do is just be real
And get off of the spinning wheel

All they sell us is a pack of lies
And we're buying one in every size
Can't you see it in the children's eyes?
It's about to get wild

We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
We should take time out to really love

Ha yeah
We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
We should take time out to really love

We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
You can have it any way you want it
You can have it any way you want it

We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
You can have it any way you want it
You can have it any way you want it

We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
You can have it any way you want it
Any you want it
You can have it any way you want it
Hey hey

We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
You can have it any way you want it
Any you want it
You can have it any way you want it
Hey hey

We should take time out to really love
We should find out who we really are
You can have it any way you want it
You can have it any way you want it


The Difference Is Why
Written by: Lenny Kravitz

I'm just a human
I never said I was god
And each day I wonder where you are
How could our lives once be so together
Now we're apart
I know we can make it
But where do we start?
Sometimes the scales get unbalanced
Don't you know the reason why?

The difference is why
The difference is why

You say you can't trust me
Have you tried?
You say you don't love me
That's a lie
There are so many so many rainbows
That we were to climb
But baby baby why can't we survive?
We've got to get our heads untangled
And free our state of mind

The difference is why
The difference is why

Sometimes the scales get unbalanced
Don't you know the reason why?

The difference is why
The difference is why
Does this have to mean goodbye?


The Future Song
Written by: Lenny Kravitz

Life brings on unexpected changes
But we must carry on despite it
Are we gonna try
Are we gonna make it
Why is love so very hard
Why is peace so very far
I can't make it

The future of our space and time
Is not gonna wither and die
The future of our space and time
Is not gonna say goodbye

We can't control all our situations
And we can't console underpriviledged
Nations
So why don't we try
To make more smiling faces
We're so full of disregards
We feel pain within our hearts
I can't take it

The future of our space and time
Is not gonna wither and die
The future of our space and time
Is not gonna say goodbye

So I'm calling out
Out to all he races
We can't gain control
Without communication
And we need to learn for future generations
There is a future in our stars
There is beauty that is ours
We're gonna make it

The future of our space and time
Is not gonna wither and die
The future of our space and time
Is not gonna say goodbye


The Majority
Written by: Duff McKagan

You call me the mean man
You point your finger at me
Having problems with authority
In every major city

And it's so easy for you
The majority, the majority
And there's no peace for you
The majority

Your white housewives 
And your money-sucking friends
Don't need you to be I'll be me to the end

And it's so easy for you
The majority, the majority
And there's no peace for you

You got to think about your children
Fuck bureaucracy
Take the weight off your shoulders
We're not the public enemy
Can't you see, can't you see

You call me the mean man
I say you call me the mean man

And it's so easy for you
The majority, the majority
And there's no peace for you

Your white housewives
And your money-sucking friends
Don't need your to be
Cause I'll be me to the end

Got to think about the children
Think think about the children

You got to think about the children


The Only One
Written by: J. Pankow/G. O'Connor

What's been goin' on
I've been tryin' to get through to you
Has it really been that long?
I've been thinkin' about you baby
And the way it used to be
There's so many things I want to say
But will the words come out all wrong?
After all that's said and done
You're still the only one

You're the only one for me
I'm the only one for you
Baby can't you see
You're still the only one
Each and every night I pray
Hopin' there'll come a day
Baby you believe
You're still the only one

Got to find a way
To get back inside your heart again
If I let you walk away
I'd be dyin' without you baby
So I just keep holdin' on
Don't you know we were meant to be
But then I knew it all along
After all that we've been through
You're still the only one

You're the only one for me
I'm the only one for you
Baby can't you see
You're still the only one
Each and every night I pray
Hopin' there'll come a day
Baby you believe
You're still the only one

And the fire of our love
Keeps me runnin' back to you
And no matter where you are
I will never be that far
Away

You're the only one for me
I'm the only one for you
Baby can't you see
You're still the only one
Each and every night I pray
Hopin' there'll come a day
Baby you believe
You're still the only one
Ain't no need to wonder why
I'll love you 'till the day I die
Baby I believe
You're still the only one

You're the only one
You're the only one
You're the only one for me sweet baby

You're the only one
You're the only one
You're the only one for me sweet darlin'
(repeats)

When times are rough and hard
With you is where I want to be, yeah
Aw yeah

When I am down and out, oh yeah
With you is where I'll be
Oh yeah

Yeah yeah baby
The only one for me
Me
Me, yeah


The Other Side
Words & Music: Lenny Kravitz

Where do I live
Where is my wife?
I am alone
What's life worth living for?
Where am I going and what am I looking towards?
Where are my kids having their fights?
Calling my name so I can kiss their sores

I'm just a man on the run
It's a bore

So father can you tell me again
Father can you tell me again that I'm livin'
'Til I meet you on that day on the other side

I'm internationally known
With platinum and gold
I've got millions sold
But after the party, I'm left standing in the cold
I would like to be a simple man
I'd buy me a farm and live off the land
Could a wife and some children be better than being in  band?
 
So father can you tell me again
Father can you tell me again that I'm livin'
'Til I meet you on that day on the other side

On the other side

So father can you tell me again
Father can you tell me again that I'm livin'
'Til I meet you on that day on the other side

On the other side


The Resurrection
Written by: Lenny Kravitz/Craig Ross

If you could feel what I could feel
Well then you'd know his love is real
If you could hear what I could hear
Well then you'd know the kind is near
The resurrection is here to stay
And he's coming back again
The resurrection is here to stay
And he's coming back again
To reclaim all his souls and set us free
The resurrection is here to stay
That he's coming back again
Look waht he's done to me
Now I am living in another space and time
He walked on the righteous path
To keep us from Satan's wrath
We are not alone
And we're going home
The resurrection is here to stay
And he's coming back again
The resurrection is here to stay
That he's coming back again
To reclaim all his souls and set us free
The resurrection is here to stay
That he is coming back again
To reclaim all his souls


Thin Ice
Written by: Lenny Kravitz/Craig Ross

You must be walking
On shaky ground
You're always jumping
At every sound
You've been a hustler for all your days
A real motherfucker in every day
When you're a loser you're all alone
So you made up for everything
That you thought you'd lost
But you paid a cost
Hey...
You can live your life for so long
But when you're walking on thin ice you will fall
You can live your life for so long
But when you're walking on thin ice you will fall
You're always running
With every game
First you're pushin' coke and then you're hoin' dames
You say you can't give nothing better back
Than you got back at home
Well I tell you that's bullshit brother
And that's heavy load
It's an illusion when you think you're the boss
Oh no no no
'Cause you really ain't got a thing
But the crumbs you're tossed
But don't you feel the frost
Hey..
You can live your life for so long
But when you're walking on thin ice you will fall
You can live your life for so long
But when you're walking on thin ice you will fall


Thinking Of You
Music: Lenny Kravitz/Lysa Trenier - Lyrics: Lenny Kravitz

Tell me mama is your life a better change?
And tell me mama
Would you live your life the same
Or come back and rearrange?
Tell me mama how is freedom?

Oh I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now
Oh I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be

Tell me mama
Are the colors deeper shades?
And tell me mama
Are there great big brass parades?
Does the sun shine night and day?
Tell me mama no more sleeping
Tell me mama no more weeping

I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now

Oh I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be yeah

Hey mama, hey mamama, mama
No, no, no, no, no
Oh no, no, no, no, no
Hey

Tell me mama is it just the way they say?
Tell me mama
And tell me mama are you missing me the way
That I'm missing you today?
Tell me mama can you hear me?

Oh I'm thinking of you
And all the things that you wanted me to be
And I'm trying now
(Repeat 5x)

Oh I'm thinking of you
Thinking of you


Tunnel Vision
Written by: Lenny Kravitz

All I want
Is all you got
Make me happy baby
And I'll make it hot
I don't need no doctor
To tell me what to do
'Cause I know I'm goin'
Straight ahead for you
I got that tunnel vision goin' through my head
I can't helf myself all I see is red
Tunnel vision goin' through my head
Lay me down inside your flying bed
All that's yours
And all that's mine
We'll put together baby
And we can combine
We don't need no lawyer
Let's not make this long
We just need a love thing
That's beautiful and strong
I got that tunnel vision
Goin' through my head
I can't helf myself all I see is red
Tunnel vision goin' through my head
Lay me down inside your flying bed
Tunnel vision goin' through my head
I can't helf myself all I see is red
Tunnel vision goin' through my head
Lay me down inside your flying bed
Make it funky now etc.
