Wingo was a late addition to the group, added after Kandi Burruss of Xscape recommended he be added. Kandi was also the one who brought the group to the attention of Dupri. The group, with a style similar to New Edition, Jodeci, and Dru Hill, has had a number of hit singles, many of which are produced by Dupri.
Identical twin brothers Brian Casey and Brandon Casey, Kyle Norman, and Richard Wingo--known collectively as Jagged Edge--have built the group's career and reputation from one simple premise: make great music and make sure the music's for real.
2) A melodic rock band, Jagged Edge UK featuring guitarist Myke Gray. Released their debut EP, Trouble in early 1990, followed by the full-length Fuel For Your Soul .
3) Drum & Bass collaboration of Optical & Ryme Tyme from the United Kingdom
Future
Jagged Edge Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And some quick sand rising to my knees
I'm breakin every room
And attain everything what we said
When we started out
And in church were praying
Cupid straight sprayin'
I don't need no medicine
All I really need is a touch from you
Girl I do see my future
When I look into your eyes
I see my future
I see my future
When I look into your eyes
I see my future
I see my future
I see my future
I see my future with you
I see my future
I see my future with you
I see me and you across the border
And the lights go on the water
Revealin' just for me
But with the drama that's been poppin' us
It would be a shame not to roll this
That fat lady ain't singin'
That news dollar ain't hangin
See she wanna take us back to the beginning
Another day was alright
We couldn't stand the fight
I just want you here with me
Please don't take away my future
When I look into your eyes
I see my future
I see my future
When I look into your eyes
I see my future
I see my future
I see my future
I see my future with you
I see my future
I see my future with you
You can catch me
Every day dreaming you
Any word that would be involved
Baby I wanna be more involved with you
And baby you're my future
When I look into your eyes
I see my future
I see my future
When I look into your eyes
I see my future
I see my future
I see my future
I see my future with you
I see my future
I see my future with you
