about

Featuring Bay Area Hip Hop royalty Lyrics Born, Love Remains is an upbeat, bouncing tale of letting go and moving on without any hard feelings. Funk/hip hop with rock elements

lyrics

You and I both know that we can’t sustain
Even though the love remains
Gonna have to go our own ways

Looking back at all the times I see how much we struggled now
But instead of recognizing both of us just doubled down
And with so much to lose we didn’t choose our course based on the facts
The underlying sentimental notion’s still intact

Whether you’re missing this
Or you’re busy living your bliss
You’re right on both accounts and ain’t no goin’ back in time
And now I’m looking for another mountain to climb

You and I both know that we can’t sustain
Even though the love remains
Gonna have to go our own ways
If we try this again will really anything change?
Even though the love remains
You know we can’t sustain

This was the perfect culmination of the time that we spent
Feel like the drama started to follow us everywhere that we went
I ran calculations and kept up coming up short
‘Cause we weren’t the same two people that we were before

I trust it, you felt its it’s got to be true
So much hesitation makes it hard to get through
Takin stock of this situation and call this is win
I don’t wanna do this again

(Lyrics Born):
When you love someone you can’t just flip a switch and turn it off
Feels like your heart won’t heal all the images, words and thoughts
And I can’t erase those memories; I feel sick, hurt and lost
We must proceed eventually can’t reverse or pause
Baby I want you to feel fulfilled, even apart from you
God I can’t believe I’m saying that, but it’s the larger truth
‘Cause I for real love you - like for real for real love you
And sometimes what that looks like is bein’ free of you

You and I both know that we can’t sustain
Even though the love remains
Gonna have to go our own ways
If we try this again will really anything change?
Even though the love remains
You know we can’t sustain

Tha Building Oakland, California

What differentiates this groove monster from its forefathers is that Tha Building is a self-contained band with its own body of booty shaking songs, ready to break out of the studio and hit the stage.
Outside Ourselves winds through an exhilarating mélange of indie-funk, hip-hop, Motown and Stax vintage soul, R&B balladry, and pristine jazz-pop. This album makes a cohesive statement in the groove. ... more
