India.Arie ~ Promises


When I think about the turn my life has taken I know it's because of you, that I receive so many blessings I had a home but no privacy, I didn't know a thing about my legacy When I realized you were there for me, I called on your name and you came And you did, just what you said, for that I'll love you forever You kept, your word to me, for that I'll love you forever [Chorus] A promise, is a promise in my eyes Can't say you're gonna just to compromise The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way I think of when there was a young boy, not even two years old Blessed with a mother who loved him so, she abandoned her dreams to nourish his own It wasn't easy for the two of them, but she knew she had to give him a chance At a better life, it was only right, so she worked and she prayed And she did, just what she say, for that he'll love her forever She kept her word to him, for that he'll love her forever [Chorus] A promise is a promise, in my eyes Can't say you're gonna just to compromise The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way A man's only as good as his word [Instrumental break] Her wedding day and she's thinking 'bout the way he won her affection She was so cynical about love 'cause she didn't want to be heart broken again He looked her in her eye with sincerity, said he only wanted to protect her so she Took a chance on him and she's glad she did because he came for real And he did, just what he said, for that she'll love him forever He kept his word to her, for that she'll love him forever [Chorus] A promise is a promise, in my eyes Can't say you're gonna just to compromise The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way No way, there ain't no way A man's only as good as his word more free lyrics

When I think about the turn my life has taken
I know it's because of you, that I receive so many blessings
I had a home but no privacy, I didn't know a thing about my legacy
When I realized you were there for me, I called on your name and you came
And you did, just what you said, for that I'll love you forever
You kept, your word to me, for that I'll love you forever

[Chorus]
A promise, is a promise in my eyes
Can't say you're gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way

I think of when there was a young boy, not even two years old
Blessed with a mother who loved him so, she abandoned her dreams to nourish his own
It wasn't easy for the two of them, but she knew she had to give him a chance
At a better life, it was only right, so she worked and she prayed
And she did, just what she say, for that he'll love her forever
She kept her word to him, for that he'll love her forever

[Chorus]
A promise is a promise, in my eyes
Can't say you're gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way
A man's only as good as his word

[Instrumental break]

Her wedding day and she's thinking 'bout the way he won her affection
She was so cynical about love 'cause she didn't want to be heart broken again
He looked her in her eye with sincerity, said he only wanted to protect her so she
Took a chance on him and she's glad she did because he came for real
And he did, just what he said, for that she'll love him forever
He kept his word to her, for that she'll love him forever

[Chorus]
A promise is a promise, in my eyes
Can't say you're gonna just to compromise
The very thing that keeps two hearts intertwined
A promise is a promise you can't deny, there's no way
No way, there ain't no way
A man's only as good as his word

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
