A very pleasant good evening ladies aan gentlemen
It's now time for the one and only
There never will be another
Christina Aguilera
That's how music shoul sound
I've wainted for some time
To get inside the minds
Of every legend I've ever wanted to stand beside
It's like an endless ride
Feeling the lows and highs
Of every lyric and melody every single rhymes
So here I stand today
In tribute I do pay
To those before me who laid it down and paved the way
And so to god I pray
That he will give me strenght
To carry forward teh gift of song in his good faith
I'm going back to basics
To where it all began
I'm ready now to face it
I wanna understand
What made the soul singers
And the blues figures, yeah
That inspired the higher generation
The jazz makers
And teh ground breakers
They gave so much of themselves in dedication
So here I stand today
In tribute I do pay
To those before me who laid it down and paved the way.
