Song 1: No Roots. Click HERE to watch it.
No roots, no tree, no
family, no name
No roots, no tree, no family, no name
No roots
My love is generations old
I was there when trees died as the world went cold
Still there when my people were bought and sold
What's going on? What's going on?
No roots, no tree, no family, no name
No roots
My love is generations old
I was there when trees died as the world went cold
Still there when my people were bought and sold
What's going on? What's going on?
Your love is on a grand scale
Mine is in the detail
Your love is to change the world
We just want to have to hold
Two hearts, both forgivin'
Two ways to see the same thing
One house there's room for all
We just want to have to hold
We just want to have to hold
Mine is in the detail
Your love is to change the world
We just want to have to hold
Two hearts, both forgivin'
Two ways to see the same thing
One house there's room for all
We just want to have to hold
We just want to have to hold
No roots, no tree, no
family, no me
No roots, no tree, no family, no me
No roots, no tree, no family, no me
Our first, was more planning
than luck
I had a deep understandin' of, what makes you hot
I did my homework, till my dome hurt, I was a stone flirt
Hustling for some prone work, and I don't stop
I knew that you were good for me
You an' I fit together so beautifully
But only for three years were we in harmony
Harmony, harmony
I've ended up part you, part me
Love that we agree, not be ugly
And now that we're free to create our own destiny
You will always be a friend to me
My love persists over land and sea
Through centuries I'll fill you up like rice and peas
Like the breeze cool your skin
Fill your hair even when I'm not there
Like the breeze cool your skin
Fill your hair even when I'm not there
Like the breeze cool your skin
Fill your hair even when I'm not there
Like the breeze cool your skin
Fill your hair even when I'm not there
I had a deep understandin' of, what makes you hot
I did my homework, till my dome hurt, I was a stone flirt
Hustling for some prone work, and I don't stop
I knew that you were good for me
You an' I fit together so beautifully
But only for three years were we in harmony
Harmony, harmony
I've ended up part you, part me
Love that we agree, not be ugly
And now that we're free to create our own destiny
You will always be a friend to me
My love persists over land and sea
Through centuries I'll fill you up like rice and peas
Like the breeze cool your skin
Fill your hair even when I'm not there
Like the breeze cool your skin
Fill your hair even when I'm not there
Like the breeze cool your skin
Fill your hair even when I'm not there
Like the breeze cool your skin
Fill your hair even when I'm not there

Song 2: God is a DJ. Click HERE to watch it.
This is my church
This is where I heal my hurts
It's a natural grace
Of watching young life shape
It's in minor keys
Solutions and remedies
Enemies becoming friends
When bitterness ends
This is my church
This is where I heal my hurts … for tonight
This is where I heal my hurts
It's a natural grace
Of watching young life shape
It's in minor keys
Solutions and remedies
Enemies becoming friends
When bitterness ends
This is my church
This is where I heal my hurts … for tonight
God is a DJ…
This is my church
This is where I heal my hurts
This is our church…
This is our church…
