[Verse 1]
I can see my destination
I can hear my call
No more hesitation, mmm
This time I'm going for it all

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I know where this road leads to
And therefore I will rise
I know this dream will come true, mmm
And I will soar the sky

[Chorus]
(Spirit, spirit)
Would you guide me, oh
(Spirit) Oh (Spirit)
Stand by me
Come on, come on, come on
Set me free

[Verse 2]
I can feel the penetration
Of a strong wind movin' me, mmm
I feel can the elevation, mmm
Of an angel lifting me, mmm

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I know where this road leads to
Therefore I will rise
I know this dream will come true, oh
And I will soar the sky

[Chorus]
Oh (Spirit, spirit)
Would you guide me, oh
(Spirit, spirit)
Standing by me
Come on, come on, come on
Set me free
(Oh, spirit)

[Bridge]
Now that I've found my way home
I've got to get there, get there
Though one step seems one mile long
Your bridge before my face
I will take the leap of faith

[Chorus]
(Spirit, spirit)
Would you guide me, oh
(Spirit, spirit)
Stand by me
Oh (spirit, spirit)
Set me free
(Spirit) Spirit (Spirit) Spirit
Set me free
(Spirit) Help me find my way (Spirit)
Stand by my side
Spirit, take my hand, and be my guide
(Spirit) Blowing free (Spirit) blowing free
Blowing free, blowing free
(Spirit) Blowing free (Spirit)

R. Kelly

Robert Kelly is a Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and producer from the South Side of Chicago, Illinois, where he first started performing under the “L” subway tracks as a teenager. This led into his first album, Born Into the 90’s, being released in 1992 as a collaboration between R. Kelly and Public Announcement. R. Kelly wrote and produced the entire album, which contained the #1 R&B hits “Honey Love” and “Slow Dance,” along with the Top 10 R&B hits “She’s Got That Vibe” (#7) and “Dedicated” (#9). The following year, Kelly went on to become a solo act.

In 1993, he released his first solo album, 12 Play, featuring the hits “Bump N' Grind” and “Your Body’s Callin'.” He released a self-titled album in 1995 featuring the hits “Down Low (Nobody Has To Know)” and “You Remind Me of Something,” while his 1998 double album, R., featured a string of hits, including “I Am Your Angel” with Celine Dion, “When a Woman’s Fed Up,” and his Grammy Award-winning song “I Believe I Can Fly” from the Space Jam soundtrack.

The success of these albums led to him becoming an in-demand producer in the ‘90s, writing and producing #1 hits for Aaliyah (“Back & Forth”), Janet Jackson (“Any Time, Any Place (Remix)”), Changing Faces (“G.H.E.T.T.O.U.T”), Maxwell (“Fortunate”), and Michael Jackson (“You Are Not Alone”).
