Lovin Hill


"Lovin Hill" is a poem i wrote during a very trying period of my life. I was stressed from so many things that i am surprised i overcame it all. I thank God, my writing and Lauryn Hill for that. I feel like every time i listen to her music i get a different message even if it's the same exact song. I got the inspiration to write this song from India Arie and her song called "Wonderful", It was a tribute song to Stevie Wonder :) So here is my "Lovin Hill", my tribute to Ms. Lauryn Hill:


You will need to kill a chill pill,
to stay real, and not feel ill
on sweet Lovin Hill

Maybe my best bet would be to
re-direct my focus from that thing, that thing
cause THAT THING may not be for me
So instead I'll do well for me so everything is everything


You will need to kill a chill pill,
to stay real, and not feel ill
on sweet Lovin Hill

I tried many times before
to find the sweetest thing I'd ever know

cause she said it could all be so simple
but you'd rather break me and leave me crippled

You will need to kill a chill pill,
to stay real, and not feel ill
on sweet Lovin Hill

I used to love him, but now i don't
I may fall again but i pray i won't
my heart broke, it was left in shatters
so now nothing even matters... to me

You will need to kill a chill pill,
to stay real, and not feel ill
on sweet Lovin Hill

you might go numb cause you just lost one
because i will follow him, I'll be taken to the sun
will remain joyful joyful and carry on
because now the joy of my heart is in Zion.


You will need to kill a chill pill,
to stay real, and not feel ill
on sweet Lovin Hill
