This song has been stuck in my head the past couple weeks,
I can’t get it out! i’ll get different songs to replace it,
but it’ll always randomly come back. lol
1997 Okinawa Japan, I remember hearing it for the first time.
Rome:
“I Belong to You”
Every time I see your face it makes me want to sing
and everytime I think about your love
it drives me crazy.
(repeat)
Say my lady
tell me what’s wrong with your boyfriend,
ah come on,
he holds the key to your heart
but he don’t love you baby, baby like I do.
only want to be with you.
girl you are the love of my life baby,
and I’d give it to you baby.
you belong to me and only me
I belong to you (I belong)
I’d give all my love to you
Chorus:
Every time I see your face it makes me want to sing
and everytime I think about your love it drives me crazy
(repeat)
say my lady
you are so fine
I wake up in the mornin’ to see a smile on your face (baby)
you are the queen of my heart baby
I belong to you and you belong to me (yeah)
girl you are the love of my life baby
all those cloudy days they fade away when you come my way baby
I belong to you (I belong)
I’d give all my love to you
I belong, I belong, I belong to you baby oh
I remember when my very first serious relationship ended…
All my friends were getting irritated with me because I was listening to slow jams all day everyday.
They would keep telling me, “man come on, you need to move on!”
LoL
Truth is though, I’ve always listened to slow jams, regardless of my situation.
Rome, Az Yet, Boys II Men, KCi&JoJo, Joe, SWV, Aaliyah, Usher, Ginuwine, Luther V.
lol Just to name a few.
Rhythm and Blues//SlowJAMS
Inspirations, I would say listening to it had a huge impact on
the person I’ve grown to be. My mindset, how I write, often times how I speak; my lyrics, my poems.
I remember my Freshman year in High school, when we got into reading Shakespeare in class. The night after we read
Romeo and Juliet, was the night I wrote my very first poem. A lot of the first ones had no one in mind. But I would sit up, hours on end with my CD player listening to Boys II Men (Evolution) and Kci&JoJo (It’s Real) just writing away… Before I knew it, I had a whole notebook full of poems…
No one had read any of them… lol I was scared to let anyone read anything I’ve written. Most of my poems at the time were free versed. None of them rhymed lol which was fine, I felt it added more of a dramatic meaning to the literature.
Slowly by slowly I would let people start reading them, some would simply ask what i was writing and i’d let them read it. I know a few people it actually inspired to start writing too, others, would ask me if they could use my writing to give to their girl. (which I always said no because it pissed me off lol)
I’ve always gotten compliments on my writings, I always felt insecure about them, especially because I never knew how sincere people were being. Somewhere down the lines I started receiving risque critiques. They were a huge ego boost, but still somewhere inside I felt like they were being smart asses, until it started happening more often. People would get so upset reading what I wrote, that half way through a piece they’d throw my notebook, then realize what they’ve done, apologize and ask to finish reading lol…
A lot of my earlier writings are gone, I don’t know where they are. Just gone. Disappeared into the universe. lol vanished in thin air, or perhaps ripped out, crumpled up, and or shredded and thrown away… it’s quite upsetting… but… I’m rambling again… back to the original point, which was….
What was it again?? haha… Anways…
