@ 3 people: WHAT!? This is beautiful poetry!!

[sramosdaron]

iLike! Spoken Words _ W.O.W ;)

[Mr911blessed]

Recorded in 1999 but never officially released.

[JoyniquaHall]

nigga poetry straight..but Ms. Hills voice is what really does it for me

[AnishaRae]

She never left us. The powers that be took her away form us and tried to tarnish her creditablility because she was speaking the truth and expsoing the evils behind our government. Listen to the lyrics don't just hear them. Read revelations 2:20-22 and you will know what she is trying to warn you of. This is the TRUTH.

[ethiochamp]

@AnishaRae please explain the scripture to me and its connection to the song

[cece426]

MY GOD.. THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!!!

[SoulOfOle]

This song is so fuckin retarded.... I love this....

[ahtomatic]

I have never commented on a video in 5 years, but this song deserves so much respect I had to type and let people know that I like this....I hope to feel this feeling one day with someone...Lauryn's voice makes me close my eyes and just listen...God bless...

[donwhan77]

@ahtoma for real- muzic dont get no better than this..i just close my eyes and sail with it..i could wake up to this, even better i could put my B to bed with this track..

[classyrachel]

Certainly a Nubian Queen..

This song is smokin..gotta listen 2 it with a lover

[Stylezt220]

This song has been in my head ever since i heard it. im listening it to it at least 5 times a day!

[versatilethearcane]

i am in love with this woman....top 10 mc of all time, no qualifier needed.....btw, where did you get this picture?

[jas659]

this is HoT!!! Can't get enough of it!!!

[AZANDAE]

Great mines think a like,...what a collab.

[MicrophoneRebel]

"Get her shit together" Really????? Wrong. A lot of her "fans" need to get their shit together and take her fully for the artist she is. She got tired of having to limit her music and herself to what was tolerable to the mainstream audience. She is too ONE OF A KIND to have to blend in with what's popular in music. She's better not coming back out mainstream if it's going to compromise her creative freedom, soul, and endless energy.

[Mukehjt1]

@MicrophoneRebel and this only has 5 thumbs up...smh...

[Whitwhit313]

I love this ...so poetic. u can really feel it!!!!

[nsaulssberry]

Let me rephrase....This song is perfect for ANY occasion you wanna set the tone of romance with and for your special one to express your love and appreciation. Because, like they said, "It takes two to make it alright". Words to live and love by.

[nsaulssberry]

This right here is like hot cocoa for the heart & soul. Just warm and chocolatey. A perfect Valentines Day serenade for your special someone. Another jewel kept under wraps. Thanks for posting this.

[puqu]

[kwoodard71]

tryin not to let the world take me outta my mind!!! Does anyone know how I can purchase or download this song?

[camcar90210]

MAGICAL!! I have never been disappointed with Lauryn's music.

SONY is a STUPID company by not letting her CD drop.

[mkenya45]

Okay SOOOOOOOOOOOOOMEBODY.....i mean SOME-DAMN-BODY's GOTTA tell me what year this came out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

----------

reflect.

[AfroVibez]

I support Ms Hill. But i still miss the vocal ease expressed within her songs something that is not displayed in her current music.

[sugar65d]

But it is a new song ???!! woow Voice of Ms Hill my dear woooww OMG wHAT a Song!!I am in looovvv with this song !

[AfroVibez]

No it is not, lauryn voice is much more raw adn rusty now days, this is likely to be old

[truthis1934]

Does it matter when it was recorded? When you make CLASSIC music like Ms Hill it will sound good today, tomorrow, and 20 years from now. Enjoy!

[soreal812]

Actually she doesn't sound more raw and rusty. this is likely from last year or the year before.

[rn1432]

The song is from Ras Baraka's album "Shorty For Mayor" released in 1998.

[AfroVibez]

Its sad this song is not recent, many years in fact

[AfroVibez]

this song is so crazy, I feel like screaming

[UniqueTush]

[101Capricorn]

[districtdiva]

[jubileeshine]

[jspankin]

where do people get these rare LH tracks from?

great

[stoopiddub333]

where did u find this???????????

[muslimahkiki20]

Where she says "I gotta be where you are, I wanna be where you are" she was singing that on the unreleased Fugees song "Where U R" it's an old song but IDK the original singer. and omg i love this track. I hope she comes out with her album.

[jspankin]

it's a jackson 5 song, don't laugh but beyonce once auditioned for a record deal with DC singing it, i think hot beverage in winter was done in the 90's. i hope LH comes out with an album soon too.

[muslimahkiki20]

THIS IS GOING ON MY IPOD!!!!

[iamadevi]

There is no words to describe Lauryn Hill or her music! She is really, truly a natural talent, a profound griot.

Never have my mind failed to think beyond my reality when I listen to Lauryn. Her voice nuances such beauty. Her lyrics are from within and from without. Just simply amazing!

[browbz]

I couldn't have said it better!!!!!!

[mocrack35]

wonderful example of the lost craft of true art. class act lauryn is the truth

[bstocks310]

beyonce who.....ummm the one who.... no i dont remember NO BEYONCE....!

[cyberdidi]

[nerdrich]

[OUTABODIES]

Wow! This shot of Lauryn makes me want to rub the rest of that Shea butter into her coco soft skin!

[dangerousdude]

This track is fire!!

[ninokk333]

[Ton0305]

[zionfrancis]

When was this released? I like it.

[fugeesonlinede]

ca. 99/2000

Ras Baraka can also be heard on The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. He is the narrator during the interludes in the classroom

[zionfrancis]

Thanks!

[FreeMyPeople87]

Lauryn Hill is one of the most talented artists EVER, Whenever she decides to get her shit together she can run things no doubt
