[Intro]
(As I look into my life)
(Searching for that paradise)

[Verse]
Oh Lord, will you help me find me
Take this crazy, crazy past of mine
And put it all behind me
Look down on the ghetto man
And change his mission
And put it in the hearts of many
To stop confusion
(As I look into my life)
(Searching for that paradise)
We need to moan for love
My sisters, brothers
Let's put these hands together
(As I look into my life)
We need to stop chokin' on the truth
(Searching for that paradise)
And start smokin' on a plan
Man love and respect that woman
And bring her happiness
(As I look into my life)
I'm talkin' to the ghetto
(Searching for that paradise)
For each other we should help
While our babies are dying in the street
We've got to be saying to ourselves
(As I look into my life)
(Searching for that paradise)

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”).
