Keeps me happy
Flowin' on
In my music, lalala
You'll be the one thing
That won't ever let me down
You'll be my piece of the pie
That keeps me alive
You'll be the reason why
I give all my props to you
Oh, Ain't nothin' new
You'll be the one thing
Who I'd owe it all too, yeah
In my music 2x
In my music, lalala
Inspiration is everywhere
In my music, lalala
Keeps me breathin'
Like a breath of fresh air
You'll be my morning light
That breaks through my night
You are my bloodline
What would I do without you
Hey, I always knew
You'd be the one thing
Who I'd owe it all too
In my music, lalala
I've been waiting all alone
In my music,lalala
Comes a feelin'
Like I'd never ever known
You'll be my piece of the pie
That keeps me alive
You'll be the reason why
I give all my props to you
Oh, ain't nothin' new
You'll be the one thing
Who I'd owe it all too
You'll be my morning light
That breaks through my night
You are my bloodline
What would I do without you
Hey, I always knew
You'd be the one thing
Who I'd owe it all too (2x)
In my music (3x)

Recorded during a period where he frequently explored the intersection of jazz and contemporary pop, the song showcases his versatility as a performer who could seamlessly transition between smooth balladry and high-energy improvisation. While specific album placement varies in public records, the piece remains a defining example of his mid-career work, reflecting his commitment to pushing the boundaries of vocal jazz while maintaining commercial appeal. The recording captures the essence of his live performance style, where the music serves as a vehicle for spontaneous creativity and deep emotional connection.
