    Worked last night. Studied for an exam all day. Cooked, cleaned, homeschooled, changed diapers and gave hugs in between it all. Came up for air and found this video. I shed tears. Thank you for this song✊🏿.

    I’d put the kids to sleep after a long day of taking care of everything and I was catching up on work when I found it...I can relate. It’s so thoughtful to have this piece of art to further these conversations about how society “deals” with us as black women. 🖤🖤🖤

    The amazing thing is that his music videos have so much depth and it feels like an entirely new and independent project which is focussed on even more elaborate storytelling. Crazy hard work and dedication. Even after 20 years or more, we will come back and submerge ourselves into these masterpieces which are indeed independent of the time they were made in. Humbleness, honesty and truth is striking out. Truly blessed to hear, see and feel pure art from this master storyteller.

It took this fast to get the point and Took a picture, then disappear, missin' mornings With you wakin' up next to me Breakfast in bed, should've did that more regularly Bacon and eggs, be the least we could to show you we appreciate you but it's too late Heaven got you in your true state Listen here to what the fool say when you're gone [Chorus] (This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you) The rapture (This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you) [Verse 3] Imagine you was only dreamin' (Yeah) Imagine you wakin' up, holdin' and squeezin' the show Wonder just how you feel in every moment Knowin' that she could be gone and Heaven's home to all of the children (Yeah) After that vision I'm willin' to listen After that sentence to an existence without passion, I'd risk it all to give it all right back to a woman Can't turn our backs on the women Do more than chill and relax on a woman Took you the bag, and invest the stashed Lil' boy gon' be man, can't place a tag With a price on a life, with the right woman Ike with the right, try to fight women Die, nigga die if you strike women (Yeah) I question if you even like women (Yeah) Your breath could leave you in a second, nigga Real niggas lay down, protectin' women Still recognize that I ain't perfect, got a dozen thanks to her And cause stress for the women God bless 'em Life served me hard lessons (Hard lessons) Just keep in mind this season time ends The womb is where all life begins, no world without women [Chorus] (This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you This time we're gonna see, I'll save you) The rapture (This time we're gonna see, I'll save you)
