Bone Thungs N Harmony - Power of a smile

[Layzie Bone - reciting 'Power of a Smile' poem]
The power of a gun can kill, and the power of fire can burn
The power of wind can chill, and the power of mind can learn
The power of anger, can raise inside until it tears you apart
But the power of a smile, especially yours, can heal a frozen heart

[Krayzie Bone over poem]
And tomorrow, we'll wake up with the promise of a smile, smile
Yes, maybe tomorrow, we'll wake up with the promise, of a smile

[Wish Bone]
Rest in peace..
Tupac, Bone Thugs
In His Own Words
Let's go

[Wish Bone]
And tomorrow, morrow, morrow, and tomorrow, morrow
And tomorrow, morrow, and tomorrow we

[Hook - Krayzie Bone (Wish Bone)]
I see the light... (and tomorrow, morrow, morrow)
I can see the light... (and tomorrow, tomorrow)
I see the light... (and tomorrow we)
See the light that shines... (and tomorrow we)

[Krayzie Bone]
Well, we still looking for better days
Hoping tomorrow can bring us some bigger and better things
So we can escape this maze, and they give us our change in every way
And maybe tomorrow, can bring us the truth
and there'll be no more use, for the pain and sorrow
Let's put it to use and then maybe the youth, can come and follow
And we can leave all our problems in the bottle, tomorrow
Maybe god'll wipe our eyes and we'll never have to cry no more
Or even better, have to die no more
Politicians can't tell us lies no more, he decides no more
Maybe tomorrow, it can be our daylight
Just might be our sunshine, sunshine..
Yesterday is filled with so much misery and drama
And today it don't seem like I'm getting any further
Praying tomorrow we can somehow come out of the struggle
And need no more hustle, no stumblin cause we all one muscle..
Still looking for a better day, day, and a better way, way, way..
So let's hope tomorrow... can lead us to the place we tryin to be..
In heavenly harmony, in heavenly harmony!

I see the light... (and tomorrow, morrow, morrow)
I can see the light... (and tomorrow, tomorrow)
I see the light... (and tomorrow we)
See the light that shines... (and tomorrow we)

I see the light... (and tomorrow, morrow, morrow)
I can see the light... (and tomorrow, tomorrow)
I see the light... (and tomorrow we)
See the light that shines... (and tomorrow we)

[Wish Bone]
Where there's a will there's a way, don't let it stand in your way
Look 'em straight in they face, let 'em know you ain't playing no games
We searching for better days, wanna live them better ways
What I promise, heart is all you need to rock
Be honest, succeed, just look at me!
If I can do it, you can do it, we can do it, just believe, believe, believe!
When I lay down, I think about some of the wrong things I done
So I pray now, for God to erase some of that wrong
Wipe my soul clean, to be wanted, when he calls me, when he calls me!
So I can't sleep, cause I'm worried, I done did things, lord forgive me!
It's a damn shame, the things we do to get it our way!
Snitch on thugs, just to get it, your pay!
Nowadays I act right, in the past we used to fight
Where the loyalty at? Where them real street thugs? Where the thug life?
Where there's a will there's a way!

I see the light... (and tomorrow, morrow, morrow)
I can see the light... (and tomorrow, tomorrow)
I see the light... (and tomorrow we)
See the light that shines... (and tomorrow we)

I see the light... (and tomorrow, morrow, morrow)
I can see the light... (and tomorrow, tomorrow)
I see the light... (and tomorrow we)
See the light that shines... (and tomorrow we)

[Layzie Bone]
So as the hours pass by, in the event of my demise
Tell my momma not to cry, these are the words of the wise
Look at liberty needing glasses now that the promise been broken
For the better, keep on hopin, powerful words that's spoken
What I'm quotin is a G, acquired his knowledge from the streets
Makaveli, Tupac Shakur, was the rose that grew from concrete
America's most complete artist, regardless, one of the hardest
On a mission to make it better, with the soul of Malcom and Martin
Mixed with a little Garvin, today he got us callin
Our brighter star is fallen, but now before he was ballin
Out of control, quick to let a nigga know what he stood for, be a friend or foe
And I bring the truth in the booth cause ain't nobody gon help me
This is life, it's a gamble, and I'ma scramble till my pockets wealthy
**** what they tell me, I'm all about my biz
*****, street biz or showbiz, I'ma make y'all know this
And I'ma say this to every man, woman and child
Don't you ever be afraid to smile, smile for me now
And I'ma say this to every man, woman and child
Don't you ever be afraid to smile... the power of a smile!
Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone-Bone-Bone-Bone! Bone-Bone-Bone-Bone!
Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone-Bone-Bone-Bone! Bone-Bone-Bone-Bone!

[Layzie Bone over hook - 2X]
Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone, Bone
Bone-Bone-Bone-Bone, Bone-Bone-Bone-Bone

I see the light... (and tomorrow, morrow, morrow)
I can see the light... (and tomorrow, tomorrow)
I see the light... (and tomorrow we)
See the light that shines... (and tomorrow we)

I see the light... (and tomorrow, morrow, morrow)
I can see the light... (and tomorrow, tomorrow)
I see the light... (and tomorrow we)
See the light that shines... (and tomorrow we)

I feel like I'm always having to pursue the guy I want instead of him picking me... what's up with that? Why do I have to get the ball rolling? If you're interested then why not just make it known?

Guys - need to know whats going on up there in those noggins of yours.


Women should be supplied with 2 by 4's.

Oh they get it once I make the first move but why do I have to? tears
I honestly know that this is not the answer u want, but I really believe that if a guy is into u he will make the move- attraction is such a subtle dance...what is the first move?

the first glance?
the first spken words?
the first hello?


once u both are in that zone where the attraction is a given IDK that it matters who does what next - but an interested man will make a first move of SOME kind

r u talking about the actual 1st date & who asks?


I think confident, more outgoing guys who are into you will make the first move. Some lack that confidence, though.

Take this site for example. Some guys have said in the forums that they won't even email a woman first. It's the same in real life. Some guys are just not confident enough. Or just too shy.


I suppose that may be true, but they prolly won't be MY type lacking that much confidence, but it's great that there is someone out there for them I guess - who doesn't mind making that first move.

I wasn't thinking about emailing on here so much as IRL. On here I'll email or talk on the forums to a lot of people - not always just for dating...oops - maybe I've been misinterpreted:laughing:

I'm more referring to the fact that it seems to me like even if a guy is interested he waits for some kind of green light from me before doing anything at all. Like ask me out or even just for my number. I'm not a flirty person it's just not part of my personality.


neither am I a flirty person, so I know what u mean. Plus I was raised at a time and in a culture that didn't favor women being the instigators unless it was a sadie hawkins dance or something like that. "If he is into you he will do something about it" really does encompass my belief system.

not being a flirty person either, I guess I can say we're doomed, or else we naturally are more attracted to men with confidence. My challenge is - while being non flirty - is to stay approachable nonetheless

Or that they know for a fact they aren't 'God's Gift' and can read a woman like a book. You're not nearly as inscrutable as you think, you know.

Too bad you can't see through our eyes-- you'd understand why it's no fun being shot down before 'hello', to be nothing more than background noise.

And really, it's easy to know that in real life. Here, you compose letters that never even get read. It's not hard to figure out how brutal the game is after the first couple of encounters.

So, you just get on with life and don't waste the time or effort for the 'reward' of getting unceremoniously ignored.

Sew. Reap. Basic law of the Universe.

Wallflower's Ball

It was a great party and the music was great.
The food was divine and we each had a plate.
Some people came in early and some came late.
Nobody danced but instead we would just wait.

And then the disambiguation dancers came.
We were happy; We had heard of their fame.
We knew each one; We knew them by name.
And then came the excuses; Some were lame.

Come dance with us they cried but we sat.
We are OK; You dance while we just chat.
We like watching you; Dancing like that.
You are the dancers; We came to get fat.

We would watch them; Watch them swirl.
First the boy would dance and then the girl.
Then together they danced in a big whirl.
He would spin and then she would twirl.

We heard the music and the band played.
Such grandeur and happiness displayed.
Like wallflowers we were all disarrayed.
We loved what the dancers portrayed.

You would be surprised how many men are intimidated to approach a woman. Especially a beautiful woman. Add to that a dynamic personality, and that really scares them.

I would bet that there are a lot of men on Mingle that nudge women on here because they are afraid to email them and get dialogue started. From a man's standpoint, we want the woman that is so dynamic, beautiful, charismatic and the one meant for "me". We might think that, oh my, she is out of my league. But he may not realize that you actually could be interested in him. Well, at least until you "get the ball rolling" :wink:
