ALICIA KEYS – The Life

Everyday I realize that this might be the last day of my life
Walking down the street I find that I’m coming closer and closer to losing my mind
‘Cause when it rains, it pours
Isn’t life worth more? I don’t even know what I’m hustlin’ for
You’ve gotta do what you gotta do just to make it through
All the hard times that’s going to face you

This is the life, trying to survive
This is the life, trying to survive

Living will always be a struggle looking for someone to love you
Looking back at single horrors, this madness makes me want to hide
Slowly, internally, I’m dying
Pillow case is wet from all my crying
There is nothing more for me to live for
Take me away, I can’t live that life no more

This is the life, trying to survive
This is the life, trying to survive

This is the life, trying to survive
This is the life, trying to survive

This is the life, trying to survive
This is the life, trying to survive

I’m just trying to get over

ALICIA KEYS – The Thing About Love

Love
Love will come find you
Just to remind you
Of who you are

Oh love
It will forsake you
Threaten to break you
Take what you got

Everybody laughs
Everybody cries
Sure it could hurt you baby
But give it a little try
See that’s the thing about love

Friends
Sometimes will blind you
Sneak up behind you
You cant give enough

Then life
It will embrace you
Totally amaze you
So you don’t give up

Everybody laughs
Everybody cries
Sure it could hurt you baby

But give it a little try
See that’s the thing about love

Don’t tell me that I’m not the only that’s going through it all
Oh sometimes I feel like I’m the only that’s going through it all
But its time
Oh its time
For me to shine
Hey
Its my time
Oh its time
For me to shine

Its my time
Said its my time
For me to shine
Its my time
Its bout time
For me to shine

Everybody laughs
Everybody cries
Sure it could hurt u baby
But give it a little try
That’s the thing about love
That’s the thing about love
That’s the thing about
That’s the thing about love

ALICIA KEYS – That’s How Strong My Love Is

Some people they call me crazy
For falling in love with you
They can take me and lock me away baby
‘Cause there’s nothing those bars can do

I’ll be the rising moon after the setting sun
Just to let you know you’ll always have someone
I’ll be the clearest day when the rain is done
So you’ll always know

Through the shake of an earthquake
I will never fall
That’s how strong my love is
Like a ship through the storm
We can risk it all
That’s how strong my love is

I used to feel kinda lonely
Cause the world it can be so fake
All that matters I’m telling you
Is you and me only
And the fortress from love we’d make

I’ll be the water you need in the desert land
Just to let you know you’ll always have my hand
I’ll be the woman you need to be a better man
So you’ll always know

Through the shake of an earthquake
I will never fall
That’s how strong my love is
Like a ship through the storm
We can risk it all
That’s how strong my love is

Oh, can’t nothing break us down
Oh, ’cause we are heaven bound
Like the mountain standing tall…
Immovable; we’re here to stay
Oh, can’t nothing get in the way

Through the shake of an earthquake
I will never fall (I will never fall)
That’s how strong my love is (that’s how strong my love is)
Like a ship through the storm
We can risk it all (we can risk it all)
That’s how strong my love is (that love is)

Through the deepest waters
I won’t let you drown (I won’t let you drown Ohh!)
That’s how strong my love is (Oh that’s how strong my love, my love, my love)
Cause we’re the moon in the sky
That will never come down (never come down)
That’s how strong my love is (Oh that’s how strong my love is)
That’s how strong my love is
That’s how strong my love is

Alicia Keys – That’s When we Knew

Right there
In the middle of a conversation
Wasn’t anything special you said
It was just there

Right then
I didn’t have time even to overthink it
I loved you and all of a sudden
I was all in

Its like my knees are all weak and the butterflies
They were dancing and taking all of my air
From that moment on it was very clear

That’s when I knew I fell in love
That’s when I knew you were the one
That’s when I knew you stole my heart away from me
That’s when I knew that I was sunk
That was the moment that I knew I was in love
That’s when I know
That’s when I know
That’s when I knew

That day
I didn’t know we were going where the night would end
I didn’t know there was something brewing and if it was
I didn’t know how much I care

That touch
When you barely held my hand I was overcome
With feelings I don’t understand
Not in a million years I didn’t think that we’d be here

Its like my knees are all weak and the butterflies
They were dancing and taking all of my air
From that moment on it was very very very very clear

That’s when I knew I fell in love
That’s when I knew you were the one
That’s when I knew you stole my heart away from me
That’s when I knew that I was sunk
That was the moment that I knew I was in love
That’s when I know
That’s when I know
That’s when I knew
Don’t you know it
Hey
Thats when I knew
Thats when I knew

Baby

You know (that?) you know
You know what you feel
And there’s no denial
And northing’s for real
There is nothing to do
Just there it is
Gotta surrender

That’s when I knew I fell in love
That’s when I knew you were the one
That’s when I knew you stole my heart away from me
That’s when I knew that I was sunk
That was the moment that I knew I was in love
(That’s when I knew)
(That’s when I knew)
(That’s when I knew)
That’s when I knew with that minute
That’s when I knew it was that beautiful
Sometimes you get it, sometimes you get it
That’s when I knew it baby
Yeah, that’s when I knew
That’s when I knew we fell in love

ALICIA KEYS – Teenage Love Affair

Can’t wait to get home
Baby dial your number
Can you pick up the phone
’cause I wanna holla?
Daydreaming about you all day
In school can’t concentrate
Want have your voice in my ear
‘Til ma comes and says it’s too late

[Chorus:]
’cause the lights are on outside
Wish there was somewhere to hide
’cause I just don’t want to say goodbye
’cause you are my baby baby
Nothing really matters
I don’t really care
What nobody tell me
I’m gonna be here
It’s a matter of extreme importance
My first teenage love affair

Another secret meeting
On the 5th floor stair case
I’m gonna give you this letter
Of all the things I can’t say
Want you to be my first, my last, my ending and beginning
I wrote your name in my book
You last name my first
I’m your Mrs.

[Chorus]

Hey boy
You know I really like being with you right?
Just hanging out with you is fun

So maybe we can go to first base
Because I feel you
Second base
Want you to feel me too
Third base
Better pump the breaks
Well baby slow down
I gotta go home now

[Chorus]

My baby baby
Nothing really matters
I don’t really care
What nobody tell me
I’m gonna be here
It’s a matter of extreme importance
My first teenage love affair

ALICIA KEYS – Tell You Something (Nana’s Reprise)

Get so caught up everyday
Tryna keep it all together
While the time it slips away
You see I know nothing last forever

Imagine there was no tomorrow
Imagine that I couldn’t see your face
There would be no limit to my sorrow
So all I can say

[Chorus:]
I wanna tell you something, give you something
Show you in so many ways
’cause it would all mean nothing if I don’t say something before it all goes away
Don’t wanna wait to bring you flowers, waste another hour let alone another day
I’m gonna tell you something, show you something, won’t wait till it’s too late

[2x] (I can’t wait, I can’t wait, I won’t wait, I don’t wanna wait)

Just a simple conversation
Just a moment is all it takes
I wanna be there just to listen
(I wanna be here)
And I don’t wanna hesitate

Imagine there was no tomorrow
Imagine that I couldn’t see your face
There would be no limit to my sorrow
’cause there’s nothing that could fill that space
I don’t wanna put it off for too long
I didn’t say all that I had to say
I wanna take my time and right the wrong before we get to that place

[Chorus]

Just lean on my shoulder,
It’s not over till it’s over
Don’t worry about it cause
I’m gonna make sure our bond gets stronger
I don’t wanna wait till the storm and something wrong and now you’re gone and I can’t find you

[Chorus x2]

[x4] I can’t wait, I can’t wait, I won’t wait, I don’t wanna wait

ALICIA KEYS – Sweet Music

Alicia Keys – Tears Always Win

Check it out
It feels kinda crazy

These covers
May keep me warm at night
But they can’t take your place
Cause they never gonna hold me tight

And these pillows
May let me rest my head
But they can’t say good night
And tuck me in before I go to bed

Say now baby girl you’re better off
That’s what I’m telling myself (over and over)
But I’m lying to myself
Cause I know I don’t want nobody else

These lips are missing you
Cause these lips ain’t kissing you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
These arms are wanting you
Cause these arms ain’t holding you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win

These candles
Light up my room at night
But they can’t light the room they way you did
When you walked inside, oh baby

If these walls could sing
About everything they’ve witnessed
Oh it’d be a sad sad song
And it’ll probably sound something like this

Say now baby girl you’re better off
That’s what I’m telling myself (over and over)
But I’m lying to myself
Cause I know I don’t want nobody else

These lips are missing you
Cause these lips ain’t kissing you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
These arms are wanting you
Cause these arms ain’t holding you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win

Tell me when the hell this loneliness is gonna be over
When everything in this room reminds me of you
Everytime I think, I’m getting closer
Cause tears drown me out, once again I lose

These lips are missing you
These lips ain’t kissing you
I put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
These arms are wanting you
These arms ain’t holding you
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win

Crying like oh oh…
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
Crying like oh oh…
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win
These eyes put up a fight
But once again these tears always win

ALICIA KEYS – Superwoman

Everywhere I’m turning
Nothing seems complete
I stand up and I’m searching
For the better part of me
I hang my head from sorrow
state of humanity
I wear it on my shoulders
Gotta find the strength in me

Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Even when I’m a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I’m a Superwoman

For all the mothers fighting
For better days to come
And all my women, all my women sitting here trying
To come home before the sun
And all my sisters
Coming together
Say yes I will
Yes I can

Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Even when I’m a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I’m a Superwoman

When I’m breaking down
And I can’t be found
And I start to get weak
Cause no one knows
Me underneath these clothes
But I can fly
We can fly, Oh

Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Even when I’m a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I’m a Superwoman

ALICIA KEYS – Streets Of New York (City Life)

[Nas (Alicia Keys)]
Nasty, yeah, yeah (New York, New York)
Hey yo black it’s time again, yeah, yeah
(New York, New York)
Come here, yeah, yeah
(New York, New York)
Hey yo black it’s time

["yeah, yeah, hey yo black it's time" - continues throughout song]

[Nas]
If you knew my streets
You would know all everybody talk about is who got beef
Who snitchin, who told police
Who came home, who still gone, who restin in peace
Now they killin over music money, not drugs, rap replaced it
Cause thugs with no brains got no patience
New jacks I pistol whip ‘em with the funky rhythm I be kickin
Musician and flatten composition
A pain, I’m like Saddam Hussein
Still alive lookin at his dead children’s burnt remains
I burnt the game, learnt you lames a new lesson
Your crew’s soft man, ya’ll need some new weapons
The P’s breathe Warriorz and skullies and Timmies
Around mixed, spics, niggaz and giddies
From my ghetto kings in deep thought we don’t blink
But don’t think we wastin our time
It’s a New York State of Mind

[Chorus #1 - Alicia Keys]
New York, New York, New York
New York City, whoa oh
New York, New York, New York
New York City, baby

[Alicia Keys]
It’s like a jungle, out here
So much struggle, out here
And my dream’s still unphased
Greed still the cousin of death
Always feels like always somethin farther time
In the Streets of New York
(New York state of mind, New York State of mind)

[Alicia Keys]
All I see is street homes
And who it’s holdin, our people
Only comforts the brain
It’s like I’m going insane
The revolution has to start, don’t waste no time
In the Streets of New York
(New York state of mind, New York state of mind)
C’mon

[Chorus #2 - Alicia Keys]
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
State of mind (New York City)
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
State of crime (New York City)
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
Big dreams (New York City)
New York, New York, New York, New York oh
Big schemes

[Alicia Keys]
Oh, break the game
Just ain’t the same
Baby loves and girls with no shame
Can’t get away (get away), epidemic plague
Every hood in every state
Don’t have no reasons cause relieve is hard to find

[Break - Alicia Keys]
In the streets of New York (New York state of mind) – [4X]
["New York state of mind" is also repeated in background]

[Rakim]
I’m from the home of a million legends and trend settin
A lot of footsteps to follow, I’ve been steppin
Mind stressin tryin to find a record crime shreddin
Time precious, I ain’t have rest since nine eleven
I live fast, hustle like today is my last
I get cash, the struggle’s like a day on the Ave.
Crack bein raw, gats squeezin off
Manhattan squeezin off, from cats who tease with war
The eve of the Apocalypse, evil keep movin politics
Every block is at risk, the metropolitan metropolis
The opposite of Liza Minelli and Frank Sinatra
Alicia Keys, Nas and Ra the gangsta’s opera
So New York City walk with me, talk gritty
It’s up to us New York it’s our city
Here the man come with the anthem, hands up
It’s time the thrill is back New York, let’s stand up

[Chorus - w/ ad libs]

[Rakim - talking behind Chorus]
Oh yeah, crucial Keys
Your God Rakim Allah
New York City, Nasty Nas
A. Keys, yeah, c’mon

ALICIA KEYS – Speechless

[Verse 1: Alicia Keys]
When I wake up in the morning babe
Can’t believe my eyes
Sweetest little part of destiny
Oh yeah
Cause you are now in my life
There ain’t no man or prize
Oh noo
Can compare to you
Ain’t no words to describe the way that I’m feeling
When I look at you

[Chorus: Alicia Keys]
I’m just speechless baby
Don’t know what to say
I’m just speechless baby
The poet in me has gone away
I’m speechless baby
Don’t know what to say
I’m just speechless baby
The poet in me has gone away

[Verse 2: Alicia Keys]
True love finally finds you babe
Life becomes a way
Previously unimaginable
Oh yeah
Listen I don’t wanna say
It only happens once if even at all
Feel it deep in your soul
And like a fairytale your story begins yeah
What a sight to behold
Makes you…

[Chorus]

[Verse 3: Eve]
In the mornings when I rise up
Go to the window and I smile with my eyes up
Stare in the clouds like wow look at my luck
Everyday I’m feeling better cause I know I got the best I can be proud of
We can’t fall quick
Remember when I used to tell my girls like yo this dude think he so it
Think he so fly
And a’time you try to talk to me I’m like yo don’t even dare try
I was on my solo groove I ain’t want nothing I ain’t need nothing
Man I’m good
Now I’m speechless
Cause I fell for him
The poet in me died
Cause I fell for him

[Chorus]

[Outro:]
I used to know all the words to say
I used to write all the poetry
But now you take my breath away

ALICIA KEYS – So Simple

It would be, it would be
It would be so simple
What it is ain’t what it was
What should it be when it comes to you and….
How it seems ain’t how it is
There’s been a change when it comes to me and…

[Chorus:]

Oh baby you
Oh baby me
Oh maybe we can try another day
Another way
All in my mind
I’m wondering why we cannot find
What was left of the beginning
If I could
Meet you again,
Miss you again,
Kiss you again
It would be, it would be so simple
Cause I would love you again
Hold you again
Need you again
It would be, it would be
Could it be, could it be so simple
Now it’s hardly simple,
It’s just simply hard
When it comes to you and
I find myself not being myself
Just to avoid all this confrontation with
Oh baby you
Oh baby me
Oh maybe we can put this armor down
And settle down
Oh it’s off track
That is a fact
Can we get it back
Get it back to the beginning
If I could meet you again,
Miss you again,
Kiss you again
It would be, it would be so simple
Cause I would love you again
Hold you again
Need you again
It would be, it would be
Could it be, could it be so simple
Don’t you know that it would be
Don’t you know that it could be
Don’t you know that it would be
Meet you again,
Miss you again,
Kiss you again
It would be, it would be so simple
Cause I would love you again
Hold you again
Need you again
It would be, it would be
Could it be, so simple

ALICIA KEYS – Stolen Moments

Remembering the days when our love began
Thinkin of a million ways
to escape and be with you
But reality wasn’t just you and i
It was long drawn out days and lonely nights

Dreamin’ bout you
i keep dreamin’ bout you
when im dreamin’ bout when you would say

[chorus]
let me take you to another place
where nothing ever seems to matter
its just you and me
we can take flight like a thief in the night
stolen moments with you (o0ohhh o0o0oh)

[Verse 2]
Destiny didn’t have such a simple plan (simple plan)
I was just a girl and you a young man
how could age define
something so divine (so divine)
Can this even be real or just exist in my mind

Dreamin’ bout you
i keep dreamin’ bout you
when im dreamin’ bout when you would say

[chorus]

[piano breakdown]

Dreamin’ bout you
i keep dreamin’ bout you
when im dreamin and waiting for the day
when noone and nothing else takes up our time
finally you’re only mine

each and everyday
I’d walk with with you right by my side
but instead we have to hide
sneak around and lie
just to spend time alone
If lovin is a crime
i’d rather do the time
and leave the world behind

[chorus]

[piano breakdown 2]

Let’s get away
Let’s get away
oooh ooh

we can get away
we can get away
ohhh ohhh

Let’s get away
Let’s get away
ohhh ohhh

we can get away
we can get away
ohhh ohhh

ALICIA KEYS – Send Me An Angel

Sometimes I feel like I don’t belong anywhere
It’s gonna take so long for me to get to somewhere

Sometimes I feel so heavy hearted
But I can’t explain cause I’m so guarded
But that’s a lonely road to travel
And a heavy load to bear

And it’s a long, long way to heaven
But I gotta get there…
Can you send an angel?
Can you send an angel?

Cause I don’t wanna feel
Like a dove with no wings
And I don’t wanna know
What a heart of stone sings

But that’s a lonely road to travel
And a heavy load to bear
And it’s a long, long way to heaven
But I gotta get there

Can you send an angel?
Can you send me an angel?
Please send me an angel
Can you send me an angel?

ALICIA KEYS – Slow Down

Oooooo Baby
There’s something that I gotta tell ya
I think that you should know what’s on my mind
Ooo baby I’m feelin our situation
Is getting stronger how we want it
But I gotta take my time
There is so much about you that I want to explore
Physical attraction, we just can’t ignore it,
But before we go too far across the line
Gotta really make sure that I’m sure

[Chorus:]

Slow down baby, let’s take our time
Slow down baby, if you don’t mind
Slow down baby, before we make this move
Slow down baby, baby slow down
Cause b4 we make this move
I think it’s really 2 soon
Oooo baby it’s like I’m knowing you forever
My medulla oblongata electrified
Oooo baby whenever we’re alone 2gether
Bout to explode and it feels so right
But I gotta take my time.
There is so much about you that I want to explore
Physical attraction, we just can’t ignore it,
But before we go too far across the line
Gotta really make sure that I’m sure

[Chorus:]

Slow down baby, let’s take our time
Slow down baby, if you don’t mind
Slow down baby, before we make this move
Slow down baby, baby slow down
Cause b4 we make this move
Baby it’s really 2 soon
Soon, yeah….
See I know what is best, cause I’ve been there before
Gave myself to someone for all the wrong reasons
But this time around, I don’t want to do that again
I just want to make this the way that I’ve dreamed of
So baby you gotta…

[Chorus:]

Slow down baby, let’s take our time
Slow down baby, if you don’t mind
Slow down baby, before we make this move
Slow down baby, baby slow down
Cause b4 we make this move
I think it’s really 2 soon
Slow down
You gotta slow down
You gotta slow down
Baby slow down
You gotta slow down
You gotta slow down
You gotta slow down

ALICIA KEYS – Samsonite Man

He’s a man so full of style and grace
Any woman’d be impressed
Takes a smile and paints it on your face
Makes you feel like you’ve been blessed
Promises things so special
It seems to come right from a song
But soon as you begin to feel secure
You turn around and he is gone

[CHORUS:]

Packin’ his bags
Gotta go gotta go
Packin his bags
Gotta go
He’s a Samsonite man
Maybe he is just a rolling stone
Wondering from here to there
Searching for a place to call his own
You wonder if he even cares?
So many years of heartache and pain
Is all you seem to know him for
Is it you or is it he to blame
Whenever he walks out your door

[CHORUS: 1X]

[BRIDGE:]

Should the wind blow you in my direction
You come through to rendezvous
Forget about your good intentions,
They leave me lonely and confused
Mr. Samsonite
Pack a bag that is my suggestion
From here and out, you will be leaving
At My discretion!

ALICIA KEYS – Rear View Mirror

Uh Yeah
A Keys
Rear View
Uh Oh Uh Oh
Uh Oh Uh Oh
AK 2000
Oh Uh Oh

It happened quickly
All of a sudden
I was caught up with another man
Who wanted
To be closer
But now
I know better and I’m
Hoping
We Can
Start Again

I know that there’s nothing for me what I have done
So
Let me show how deep my love goes
For you
Cos you’ll really live and learn and that’s how you find out who is true
And I found out that you were the one

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don’t know what we had to change
It’s easier for us to get further
Don’t look in the rear view mirror

Now that we are
Back again together
I want to show you
How I’m made from heaven
I’ll do my best to shower
You with a bit of ‘tention
Don’t ever have to mention
This song if it ends

I know that there’s nothing for me what I have done
So
Let me show how deep my love goes
For you
Cuz you’ll really live and learn and that’s how you find out who is true
And I found out that you were the one

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don’t know what we had to change
It’s easier for us to get further
Don’t look in the rear view mirror

I can’t change what I had done before
But now I know that you love me so much more
Than anything that had ever come my way
Keep your eyes on what we have today

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don’t know what we had to change
It’s easier for us to get further
Don’t look in the rear view mirror

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don’t know what we had to change
It’s easier for us to get further
Don’t look in the rear view mirror

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don’t know what we had to change
It’s easier for us to get further
Don’t look in the rear view mirror

We can get best of this
Don’t have to go so fast
We can get rid of them in the rear view mirror

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don’t know what we had to change
It’s easier for us to get further
Don’t look in the rear view mirror

ALICIA KEYS – Pray For Forgiveness

Beautiful garden, where have you gone?
My self delusions are leaving me in the storm
Taking for granted, all the goodness that I’ve found
Somewhere I lost all, the control came crashing down.

And I pray for forgiveness
Look for the answers
Cause it’s hard
For me to pretend
Look to my mother
Call to the captain
Can’t you see
This state that I’m in?
And no one would notice
Nobody noticed
Cause it’s me where it begins

Beautiful morning, please don’t wake me from my sleep
‘Cause I need some comfort, to regain my sanity
I don’t want to feel this crazy,
I don’t want to feel discarded
Shattered in a million pieces
I’m so broken hearted
No where left to run
No where left to go
So I hope

I pray for forgiveness
Look for the answers
‘Cause it’s hard for me to pretend
Look to my mother
Call to the captain
Can’t you see
This state that I’m in?
And no one would notice
Nobody noticed
That it’s me, where it begins
And I pray for forgiveness within

I swear that everyday I feel like my mind is haunting me
I think of every little stupid mistake that has been made
This time I don’t have the strength to gather myself
I’m falling to pieces

And I pray for forgiveness
Look for the answer
‘Cause it’s hard for me to pretend
Look to my mother
Call to the captain
Can’t you see
This state that I’m in?
Pray for forgiveness
Looking for justice
Searching for answers
Call to my mother
Pray for forgiveness
Breaking the silence

Nobody knows it, nobody noticed
That it’s me
Where it begins
