La version de Des'ree est magique !

Time asks no questions
It goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you cannot stand the pace
The world well it keeps on spinning
Can't stop it if you tried to
The best part is danger, staring you in the face
Ooh, listen as your days unfold
Challenge what your future holds
Try to keep your head up to the sky
Well others they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
Stand up and be counted
Don't be ashamed to cry
You gotta be
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day
Well herald what your mother said
Read the books your daddy read
Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time
Some may have more cash than you
Others take a different view, my oh my, heh, hey, hey
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, got to be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together
Well all I know, all I know, is love will save the day
Time asks no questions, it goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace
The world keeps on spinning
Can't stop it, if you tried to
The best part is danger staring you in the face
Listen as your days unfold
Challenge what your future holds
Try to keep your head up to the sky
Others they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
Stand up, be counted, don't be ashamed to cry, no
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you got to be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together

Deeply sono involve my heart completa
I'm going through a ruff moment.
I know i need to stand the pace. How do i do it
Aretha remade "A house is not a home" and won a grammy off it. so yea.
I love me some Patti Austin. But I prefer Des'ree's version more. I guess it's because I'm so use to listening to the original version more.
Tyler Perry brought me here :D
