“Ain’t No Stoppin’ Us Now” by Luther Vandross — My Love Playlist

“There’ve been so many things that have held us down…”

Friends, those things MADE US WHO WE ARE. Everything we’ve gone through has prepared us for what we want to create in our lives. You can’t skip over the lessons. Every experience taught us something extremely valuable. If you’ve read my book you know I recommend writing down all of the lessons that you’ve learned with every challenge, every date (teacher), every relationship. It’s mind-blowing. It changed my focus from what I wish were different, to gratitude for the lesson. I learned something I didn’t know before. Absolutely no way to learn that one lesson without that one experience. It changed me. Just making that shift.

Focus on the lessons because now you are smarter and stronger than you were before that date, before that challenge, that relationship. ♥️♥️♥️

It looks like things are finally comin’ around

Ain’t no stoppin’ us now
We’re on the move
Ain’t no stoppin’ us now
We’ve got the groove

There’ve been so many things that have held us down
But now it looks like things are finally comin’ around, yeah
I know we’ve got a long, long way to go
And where we’ll end up, I don’t know

But we won’t let nothin’ hold us back
We’re gonna get ourselves together
We’re gon’ polish up our act, yeah
And if you’ve ever been held down before
I know that you refuse to be held down any more, yeah-yeah

Don’t you let nothin’, nothin’
(Nothin’ stand in your way, and all we’re gon’ do)
I want y’all to listen, listen
(To every word I say, every word I say about it)

Ask them where they’re going, they don’t know

Ain’t no stoppin’ us now (that’s right)
We’re on the move (you said it, we’ve got the groove)
Ain’t no stoppin’ us now
We’ve got the groove (ooh-oh-ooh, ooh-oh-ooh)
Ain’t no stoppin’ us now
We’re on the move (we’ve got the groove)
Ain’t no stoppin’ us now
We’ve got the groove

I know you know someone who’s got a negative vibe
And if you’re trying to make it, they only push you aside
They really don’t have nowhere to go
Ask them were they’re going, they don’t know

But we won’t let nothin’ hold us back
We’re gonna get our show together
We’re gon’ polish up our act, yeah
And if you’ve ever been held down before
I know that you refuse to be held down any more

We’re gonna get ourselves together

Don’t you let nothing, nothing
Nothing to stand in your way
(I want you to listen, listen)
To every word I say
Every word I say about it

Ain’t no stoppin’ us now
We’re on the move
(Nothing gonna, nothing gonna
Stop us now, stop us now)
Ain’t no stoppin’ us now,
We’ve got the groove
Ain’t no stoppin’ us now
We’re on the move
Come on, we’ve got the groove
Ain’t no stoppin’ us now
We’ve got the groove (ooh ooh)

Don’t wanna stop, please don’t make me stop
Don’t wanna stop, please don’t make me stop
Don’t wanna stop, please don’t make me stop
Don’t wanna stop, please don’t make me stop

Ain’t no stoppin’ us now

S-T-O-P-P-I-N
Ain’t no
S-T-O-P-P-I-N
Ain’t no (singing with me)
S-T-O-P-P-I-N
Ain’t no (ain’t no, no-oh-no, no-oh-no)
S-T-O-P-P-I-N (no way!)
Ain’t no (ain’t no, yeah-ee-a, yeah-ee-a)

Ain’t no stoppin’ us now
We’re on the move
Don’t wanna stop, please don’t make me stop (never)
We’ve got the groove
Don’t wanna stop, please don’t make me stop

Ain’t no stoppin’ us now
We’re on the move
