Blackstreet has also collaborated with Jay-Z on his single "The City is Mine". With the help of the Janet Jackson single "Girlfriend", Blackstreet finally had a top ten album with Finally. But personnel shifts wracked the group and contributed to the relative failure of Finally in 1999, and Blackstreet soon broke up. After rumors of legal action and a preemptive countersuit, the group reformed and released Level II in 2003.
The Lord Is Real Time Will Reveal
Blackstreet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who's a head of our house
Thanking Him for His many blessings
And all He's done for us
And Blackstreet would like to share
All He's given us, with you
Jesus is real
More precious than silver
More precious than diamond rings
Or anything that I could give Him
It wouldn't be the thing
It's good to know the love inside from Him
It guides me through
Ain't it good to know He's true
I know the Lord is real
And this is how I feel
In time it will reveal
He said with Christ he gave His life for us
It'll all reveal in time
Yes it will all reveal in time
So you don't have to worry
You don't have to be afraid
All you got to do is trust in Him
And never doubt
He will always be there for you
He will never let you down
And I believe in that
Cuz I'm a living witness to this, y'all
Cuz without God
My life would be nothin'
So if you believe in what I'm sayin'
I want you all to come on and repeat after me

Just to save my soul
