SJ - Moment in Time (feat. Smart Angie) Lyrics

Take me to a time where we don't have to fight
Take me to a time where we can love in light
Take me to a time where we made it, and the world celebrates us
Can we go to the Moment in Time?

It's a classic tale of Romeo and Juliet
Forced to love secret 'cause our families kept our
Love from growing in the public eye
Thinkin' it won't last forever, guess because I got a
Different pigment and my culture's different
They reject my intellect thinking I lack vision
When my mission's to lift your spirits and
Protect you from any of the ********, huh
It's crazy, 'cause I've never known none better
Never woulda found you if I kept my mind severed from
Datin' outside my skin tone, we been grown
But we know home is where the heart'll go
So we confused, thinkin' that we're both doin' wrong
Tryna stay together, tryna stay strong
The 'burbs and the streets, the beauty and the beast
Just wanna live in peace

Take me to a time where we don't have to fight
Take me to a time where we can love in light
Take me to a time where we made it, and the world celebrates us
Can we go to the Moment in Time?
Take me to a time where we don't have to fight - we don't have to fight
Take me to a time where we can love in light- we can love in light
Take me to a time where we made it, and the world celebrates us
Can we go to the Moment in Time?

I gotta say, I'm glad that ya came to stay
But you know we got challenges comin' our way
We gotta get battle ready for this movement
I just hope you're strong enough to go through it
Get ready for some backlash
People staring at us and givin the mean mugs in public
Ya fam might disown you, can you live with that?
Can you live with getting' dropped like that?
I know it's scary, but this is what we'll have to face
People can't accept datin' outside they race
They speak hate, 'cause in they mind **** hit the fan
And they fear what they don't understand
We're livin' in a different time, where there's more acceptance
It makes sense that this is just the next progression
The 'burbs and the streets, the beauty and the beast
Just wanna live in peace

Take me to a time where we don't have to fight
Take me to a time where we can love in light
Take me to a time where we made it, and the world celebrates us
Can we go to the Moment in Time?
Take me to a time where we don't have to fight - we don't have to fight
Take me to a time where we can love in light- we can love in light
Take me to a time where we made it, and the world celebrates us
Can we go to the Moment in Time?

Many nights where we cried many tears, many years
Tryna get accepted by our family
Here's to the challenges, here's to the grind
We got a long way to go, we 'bouta shine
Like a sunny day out on the cruise in the ocean
Sippin' on some mixed drinks, thinkin' bout moments
Livin' like Kings & Queens
Finally enjoyin' life peacefully
I know you got doubts, like - Was it worth the fighting?
Will we last forever? Did we do the right thing?
I'ma go on record to say
Ye ain't gotta worry 'bout me tryna stray
'Cause I'ma ride for you, I'ma fight for you
And bae just know I would DIE for you
The 'burbs and the streets, the beauty and the beast
Just tryna live in peace, so leave us be

Yo, if you ain't willin' to die about it
You shouldn't even be in a relationship like this
If you ain't willin' to sacrifice everything you've got
Your bond ain't as strong as you think it is
If you love someone
Especially outside of your race and culture
Man, fight for 'em
'Cause that loyalty will last forever

Take me to a time where we don't have to fight
Take me to a time where we can love in light
Take me to a time where we made it, and the world celebrates us
Can we go to the Moment in Time?
Take me to a time where we don't have to fight - we don't have to fight
Take me to a time where we can love in light- we can love in light
Take me to a time where we made it, and the world celebrates us
Can we go to the Moment in Time?

Oooooh, yeah
Yeah
Take me to the time
