her voice, the production, the beat. this song is amazing

By far my favorite song on the entire album. The flow is beautiful and that beat is oh so beautiful. Jill should never stop making music she is always telling an amazing story with her outstanding poetry.

It'll be a lovely day when Ms. Scott drops her next album. What she's done in 15-20+ years can sustain a soul for a lifetime, but the industry most certainly can benefit from her input right about now

Sitting here......CONTEMPLATING...IF WE SHOULD EVEN "BE".......Jill has such an eloquent way with words.....

Even here in South Africa, Jill Scott brings a Killing Beat. I must say, this song is a song you listen to at Midnight just to reflect on life...Deep Stuff

Jill Scott... I feel like you broken into my heart, read my concerns, and put pen to paper with this song and Cruisin' .

Jill is the shit. Her vocals and vocal arrangements are amazing. Beautiful voice...

Every Man on this Earth is going through something. And this songs helps us to not feel “alone”

She's a very good poem artist

Jill Scott takes shit that everybody has been though emotionally, puts it over a beat.... Instant hit. Even the songs of pain , mistake, forgiveness and productivity are BANGERS!! I love Jill!!!

This song puts me in such a beautiful trance. Jill put her heart in this album.

"Music is supposed to inspire" - Lauryn Hill. Thank you, Jill, for making music that breaths life into our people instead of death.

Can't stop listening to this song

Every man needs that Lighthouse in his life....that Queen/Wife/Lover/Best Friend that will nurture and support his dreams and his grind thru the tough times and the good days. Thanks for verbalizing this perfectly Jilly from Philly.

Jilly from Philly never fails when it comes to providing goose bumps!!

Love this song! I think this is my fav so far! "Lay 'em down, lay 'em down, lay your burdens down."

Your not alone,I just discovered this last week also, and it speaks to my soul, it reminds me of a ex of mine, that I dated 2010. No matter what ever I was going through myself, I always was his "Lighthouse" he could come to me about any burdens he had, and I would drop everything just to comfort him. He will always be my real first adult love.

This is her best album in years. Point, Blank, and the Period!!!!!!

This song is just illuminating. Jill is such a poet.

The Amazing Jill Scott has proved time and time agin that she represents that highly intuitive deeply nourishing exotic r and b style that is often called Neo Soul. (Willing) although short, vibes very intensity and the message is received spirituality as well as emotionally. Jill never stop being you! I'm so lucky to be alive to enjoy your gift.
