Lyrics[]

The time is now, we want release
Break on through and get the system moving
Get your dreams and let 'em loose
Feel the vibe, quick or you'll be losing

You know I (you know I)
I'm gonna make it baby (yea-hey, yeah)
Don't you lie (don't you lie)
Never failed you baby

Now I know, yes I know
I can feel it in my soul
It's telling me, which way to go
Believe in me, I will show you

We're gonna make it happen (you know that)
You know the time is right for us to shine a light
We're gonna make it happen
Don't ask me where I've been, just where I'm going to

So hear me out and let me in
I'm coming through with non-stop motion
Time won't wait, don't hesitate
Visualize your inspiration

You know I (you know I)
I'm gonna make it baby
Don't you lie (don't you lie)
Never failed you baby

Come with me and you see
It was meant for you and me
Now that I know, we can be free
I want the world to know that

We're gonna make it happen (you know that)
You know the time is right for us to shine a light
(Shine a light)
We're gonna make it happen
Don't ask me where I've been, just where I'm going to

We're gonna make it happen
You know the time is right for us to shine a light
(Shine a light)
We're gonna make it happen
Don't ask me where I've been, just where I'm going to

Don't go selling the flow
Cos here I go
I'm Coastin, Boastin
I'm doing on the mic
There's no stoping me
Moving, Grooving

All I wanna do is get through to you
No stoppin, (stoppin) delaying (delaying)
Just look at yourself is what I'm saying
This feeling that I got as a matter of fact
Is a natural aphrodisiac
As a matter of fact I'm getting tough
I can't talk so I get enough

Oh-ho (ho) Oh-hey (hey)
One thing left to say

We're gonna make it happen (you know that)
You know the time is right for us to shine a light
We're gonna make it happen
Don't ask me where I've been, just where I'm going to
