To Love Somebody
The J.J. Band Lyrics

While the choir sings for me
The choir is singing for me and my needs

To whom it may concern
This message is for anyone who needs to hear it

I want you to be with me
I want you to join me in spreading love and positivity

To the ones without father figures
This message is particularly for those who grew up without a father figure

And the music helps them see the larger picture
The music is a means to help people see things in a bigger perspective

I hope I could spark a difference
I hope that my message can make a positive impact on people's lives

Cause I understand and get it
I understand the struggles that people are going through

And I'll never be a critic
I will never judge others who are going through a hard time

Supposed to shine like we acrylic
We are supposed to shine and be strong like the material acrylic

Supposed to judge you and I didn't
We are not supposed to judge others, and I did not

Cause I could see ups and downs
I can see the good and bad times

And I praise you for attempting
I give credit to those who try their best

If you ever felt ignored
If you have ever felt like nobody cared about you

This is my way to give attention
This is my way of showing that I care

Today I'mma love somebody
Today, I am going to love someone

Tomorrow I'mma love somebody
Tomorrow, I am going to love someone

Forever I'mma love somebody
I will always love someone

This is my way of reaching out
This is my way of connecting with others

So I touch somebody
So that I can touch someone's heart

Give you my light don't stay in the dark
I will give you my positivity so that you won't stay in a dark place

Give you my hope if you play your part
I will give you my hope if you also make an effort

Feel like I feel come and take my heart
If you feel the same way I do, then take my heart

Feel like I feel come and make your mark
If you feel the same way I do, then make your own positive impact

This for the ones who feel lonely
This is for those who feel alone

For the ones who look in the mirror
For those who look in the mirror and don't like what they see

Don't like what they see
For those who are insecure about their looks

For the girl that's switching her weaves
For the girl who changes her hairstyle frequently

And don't think she's a queen
And doesn't believe in her worth as a woman

Taking body selfies for worth
Posting body selfies to feel validated

Hoping somebody sees
Hoping someone will appreciate them

Instead of that put energy
Instead of seeking validation from others

To aspiration and dreams
Focus on one's goals and aspirations

Along the way stay focused
Stay focused on your journey

High grades and degrees
Value education and strive for academic excellence

And watch how he treat you
Pay attention to how your significant other treats you

Desperation try to keep you
Don't let desperation keep you in a toxic relationship

Cause you loved yourself
Because you love and value yourself

More than anybody else needs to
You don't need anyone else's validation

And to my kings feeling hopeless and crushed
This is for men who are feeling hopeless and defeated

It's okay to say you need guidance
It's okay to admit that you need help

A kiss and a hug
Sometimes, all you need is a hug and a kiss

Realize what life could be
Realize the amazing things that life has to offer

Before giving it up
Before giving up on life

Before trying to slit your wrists
Before resorting to self-harm

Or getting lit from some drugs
Before getting high on drugs to escape your problems

You worth more than some opinions
Your worth is more than what others think of you

And you stronger than I mentioned
You are stronger than I can put into words

And you don't need attention
You don't need attention to feel validated

To justify why you living
To justify why you deserve to live

Cause I was broke before
Because I have been in a tough place before

A lot of things I wasn't getting
I was missing out on a lot of things then

Till I looked in the mirror
Until I looked at myself in the mirror

And thanked God for my existence
And expressed gratitude for my life

And I love you too
And I love all of you, too
