It is very rare that in a generation we have the priviledge to have living legends in our midst, although human just like us and experiencing the same life obstacles they possess a divine nature in their art. They transcend, move with grace, ease and show us true perfection. In 2016 we lost PRINCE and MUHAMMAD ALI. THE SWEETEST TIME is dedicated to their memory.
lyrics
You gave me this passion, you knew I felt it
You saw the path of my journey, though I couldn’t see it
You took me to a place where I’ve never been
Through my gift you took away my sin
Where eagles fly, angels smile and your love abides
You showed me that now is the sweetest time
It’s never late just always comes on time
Today feels just like yester-year, when you taught me patience
You taught me how to fight on, now I’m your soldier
If it’s my time to leave this stage
With no regrets, I’ll say goodbye and take a bow to go
To eternal peaceful serenity
‘Cause I believe that now is the sweetest time
It’s never late just always comes on time
So never cry ‘cause now is my sweetest time
It’s never late just always comes on time
On time, on time on time time
You loving me
Always on time, on time
We thank you Muhammad Ali, we thank you PRINCE
For your Legacy, for teaching us how to be the best that we can be
To float like butterfly and sting like a bee, to laugh and bathe in the purple rain.
The tears of our hearts …tell us the end is the start
