This entire CD got me through a very dark part of my life. It was like she spoke directly into my circumstances.

Yes this song gave me hope when I was a teen and a motherless and fatherless child homeless in the cold streets of Boston. Cheryl gave me a voice back then and now I am late 40’s still remember word for word and it still makes me cry knowing I survived through it all me myself and I.. l love you thank you for sharing your gifts with the world I’m so glad you didn’t sleep on them!!

Alot of people are asking where she is they must not be Tyler Perry fans. Oan:Love Cheryl "Pepsi" Riley

Love this woman! Her voice is AWESOME!!! So glad Tyler Perry hires her to sing and act in his plays!

she is so PRETTY!

In Junior High School I was very depressed. There were many days I could not find a reason to get out of bed. This song and most most of all by Jody Watley gave me the reason and strength when I needed it most!

Underrated R&B gem from Brooklyn's Miss Cheryl Pepsii Riley.

Jesus did it and He's still doing it.❤

Unsung brought back the memories of this song...still relevant... thanks

This album was on repeat the entire time I was on deployment. Forgot what a classic this is

Fall of 1988...pretty special times

I forgot how many times this song saved my life. I used to hurt so much all the time but this beautiful spirit gave me so much.

This song got me through my 20's. Lol. Thank you

one of the most underrated songs of all time

It's as if this song was written for me...especially 5 years ago this coming Sunday. I actually had to learn how to love me through Christ. Hasn't been an easy road, but I thank God that HE is proven to me to be the greatest love of all.

I was 13 in '88. I remember this song. Full Force writes nice songs for women. She can sing too

this sing just popped up in my mind today. Glad I found it here! I still know all the lyrics.

I love this song and have for a long time now, the message is a timeless one and who better to sing it to us! She's great!

This song means so much to me. I've always wanted to just escape to a quiet space, doing nothing but listen to great anthems and songs. This is one of those songs. CPR voice is almost angelic. It's a song that just pulls me in ... Thanks for posting.

this song saved my life as a teen. I lost my mom and this song gave me hope; courage and self worth

One of The Greatest songs ever written....and SANGEDDDDDD!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾Cheryl Pepsi Riley fan forever!!!!!

God Is Family 2023

I've always loved this song!!!! Those Full Force guys know they could sure write some great songs for women! Between the songs that they wrote for Cheryl and the ones they wrote for Lisa Lisa, it's safe to say that they are WAY in touch with their feminine side.

She has a amazing voice ❤😊😊❤❤😊.

HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY CHERYL "PEPSI" RILEY (OCTOBER 18, 2018)

This was my favorite back in the day by her. She is a true singer. Not many today can touch her vocally. I just watched her story again on Unsung.

I LOVE THIS SONG I USE TO PLAY THIS SONG OUT IT TRUELY HAS A MEANI NG TO IT LOVE YOU CHERYL PEPSI RILEY

Love Cheryl Pepsii Riley and the message in this song! Thanks Unsung! ❤️

Such a powerful message...timeless and brilliant delivery

I love my children, can't imagine life without them, you always remember to tell me, thanks for my child all 8 of them!!!!!! God bless you and yours

This song deserves more attention

I'm obbessed with this song

I'm a major 80s music fan and had never heard of her until Tyler Perry. Wow!

Always wearing a smile Running free Running wild That’s my best disguise Can’t you tell? So unhappy I could die I’ve considered the try That I stopped and said to myself Girl, this is the easy way out Why not challenge the world I cry up a storm That throws my mind in a swirl Then I looked in the mirror And the reflection said You (you) got to love you Because nothing come easy I have dreams of my own too (ooh) And it’s true Straight to the sun We’ll fly Me, myself and I Sometimes I feel as if I’m standing on a cliff But you can’t let the wind just blow you Must depend on myself And wait for nobody else Though I need someone to love me overtime I stumble through the darkness in my mind I’m living in an hourglass out of time Then I turned to the mirror And my reflection said You (you) got to love you Because nothing comes easy I hope you’re too (ooh) And it’s true

this and " thanks for my child" classics. period. real singer with or without music. #therealmemyselfandi

Cheryl is a ream vocalist. Highly under-appreciated. Always loved this album 'Chapters'.

Unsung..totally forgot about this song..wow

Ive always loved this song

I love this woman and this song. She has a very beautiful voice.

You must love you before you can love anybody else

This song 🎶 & Entire album got me thru a dark period . I seriously was contemplating suicide a couple nights ago an was questioning God & my entire existence on earth. I’ve overcome so much & battle with Clinical Depression/Anxiety & I’m a Sexual abuse/physical abuse survivor

It's crazy how this song didn't resonat re with me in 1989 as a teen but as I listen to it now. I kick myself. What a great positive life affirming song.

Cheryl "Pepsi" has a beautiful voice. Some years back, I bought a mixed cd with had her song "Thanks for my child". I just love that song -- and I played it to death and learned the words. Thanks goodness nowadays you can find lyrics on the internet.

I love this song so inspiring. The video is amazing.

I love this song. It takes me way back and it's very positive and motivating.

Classic!
