Alicia Keys releases song about son Egypt
New mom and songstress Alicia Keys made no secret of the fact that she was 100 percent in awe of son Egypt (with husband Swizz Beatz), born just two months ago. She tweeted and blogged about how amazed she is by him, and now she has transformed those feelings into a song!
Alicia tweeted that her new release “Speechless” was inspired by her new baby boy:
My gift to you….a little song about my lil guy
love to you… lets make 2011 incredible!!!
She added of the song on which she collaborated with R&B singer Eve:
Speechless is a little freestyle treat 4 the holidays. It’s not a new album, not a single its something special 4 U!
Lyrics to the song are as follows:
When I wake up in the morning baby
Can’t believe my eyes
It is this a part of destiny, you’re now in my life (now in my life)
There is no better prize
Can’t compare to you
Ain’t no words to describe the way that I’m feeling, yeah
When I look at youChorus:
I’m just speechless baby, don’t know what to say
I’m just speechless baby, the poet in me has gone away
I’m just speechless baby, don’t know what to say
I just speechless baby, the poet in me has gone away, yeah, yeahTrue love finally found you baby
Life becomes a way
Prettiest things imagine up, oh yea
Listen I don’t wanna say
It only happens once to me when I call
Feel it deep in your soul
And like a fairy tale your story begins
What a saint to the …[Chorus]
Hey yeah, in the mornings when I rise up
Go to the window and I smile with my eyes up
Staring at clouds like wow look at my love
Every day I’m feeling better cause I know I got the best I can be proud of
We came for quit, remember when I used to tell my girls like yo this dude thinks he’s all eh, think he’s so fly
And hates how you try to talk to me I’m like you’re don’t even there try
I was on my solo groove, I ain’t want nothing, I ain’t need nothing
Man I’m good, now I’m speechless, cause I fell for it, the poet in me died cause I fell for it[Chorus]
I used to know all the words to say, I used to write all the poetry
But now you take my breath away, hahaha, hey.
