I honestly thought this was a 70s jam when I heard the Reeces commercial. Just noticed the album's date. Mad respect to the artist for honoring that sweet old school flow. Beautiful song!!
It's easy to spot the the feign. To the knowledgeable ear, the song's age can be easily discerned by the tone, phrasing and word selection. Also by the hip-hop-influenced song arrangement.
I’m glad you were able to get out before it was too late you have some much to live for those 4 kids is all you need god will send you someone to add value to your life not take it away 🙏🏾
This I found on the BET page. I absolutely love this song. Gives me chills. It grabs you. Thanks for making this music. We can't go Alot of places and find soulful type music we grew up on. Please keep making it.
Beautiful words.... #crying over here because of the words. I'm letting my husband go in my heart. I'm letting him take s piece of me. I'm letting him go peacefully.
@@AprilPettiford81 same here letting go of the live we Once had is the hard part for me. I also think tht I tried to give him a piece of me but he failed tht when he choose to cheat.. Now I'm taking all of me and I will make sure he has the peace he need but he can't have the best of Mei gave him tht and he walked over me.. I didn't know what a codependent relationship was and thats where I f up in the beginning I wanted to and needed to be needed so I made it tht way for the both of us but I'm learning that's not healthy because he choose to do the same when ever he know I'm trying to leave he make up some shit about his health and tht isn't healthy I just want out but I DON'T KNOW HOW TO BREAK IT DOWN TO HIM
This song is one of the best I've heard in years. I cried the first time I heard because it's so real. Kudos to Lady Wray for putting out this gem. Going to download all her soul albums now!
These lyrics...😭 words traveling on that nostalgic, 70s type music can touch you in places you never imagined. So this is what real music sounds like & here I was thinking it was gone. Thank you Lady Wray!
For those that may not know, this Nicole Wray now known as Lady Wray. She was once part of Missy and Timbaland's camp. She had the hit single Make It Hot in 1998.
Wow! This sounds like something right out of the 70s time capsule. How do I know? I was there! This is the music young folks need to create and listen to. Believe me, a lot of the derogatory language would stop; self respect would become fashionable again; and women would put their clothes back on.
Dropped this on a 60’s 70’s soul snob friend ...... he nearly short circuited trying to find back catalogue stuff and to his horror it was 2019 🤷🏻♂️ shows you pure craftsmanship is alive and very well indeed.
Big Crown Records you need to make Lady Wray and her music more popular on the radio. I think she should look into the secular and Christian markets because I think her music would speak and touch a lot of people just like the song Piece of Me did for me.
Found this song on Nicole's recent BET episode. Now downloaded it on all my devices and its on repeat. This song is a BANGER!!! And needs more push. This is REAL MUSIC!! Bravo Lady Wray!
I can't wait for music to revisit the past. The music they are playing now is so depressing and so down in the dirt. My mom said everything to recycle,.. we are all waiting for the change of pure music to return.
I've been sprung on this song for a month ... Helped speak for my soul.....family related as well as break up related...so relevant! Lyrically this is way different...sometimes you can search for songs but nothing's good enough for what your going through ....this was perfect.
[Verse 1] You've been the best of times You walk me through my darkest days Why must I turn around I ask myself (I don't know) This just ain't fair So hard to bear (it's not fair) I'm not really sure these days Sure these days Sure these days I've stashed the memories to ease the pain You've been dear to me That's why it's hard to walk away (walk away) Remember when it was simple things (simple things) I'm not really sure these days [Chorus] I'll let you take a piece of me I hope you get the peace you need And if that's not enough I'll let you go peacefully, ah yeah [Verse 2] You've been around so long You did me wrong But it made me strong I believed in you You believed in me To lean on you (lean on you) But when I reached for you, you were not there (you're not home) I'm not really sure these days Sure these days Sure these days Blood is thicker than mud ya know It may sound simple but that's all I know (all I know) Even though he's hurting me, but I pray they see (pray they see) Even though they're hurting me we're still family [Chorus] I'll let you take a piece of me I hope you get the peace you need And if that's not enough I'll let you go peacefully, ah yeah [Bridge] Let it be, let it be Harmony, harmony [Chorus] And if that's not enough... I'll let you take a piece of me I hope you get the peace you need And if that's not enough I'll let you go peacefully, ah yeah
Cold ! Makes me want to get somebody to ride me around in that '77. I be in the backseat jamming to this. Looking equally cold in my suit, hat, sunglasses. Peering at biatchz through the diamond in the back. Like Jimmy Bones. You could drop this on the radio in 1974 and nobody would know the difference.
My cat just died and I’m very sad, and this commercial comes on whenever I talk about her. Sounds like “I hope you get the peace you need”. Just made me feel happy for a little while. Maybe it was meant to be.
"I let you take a piece of me, I hope you get the peace you need, and if that's not enough I'll let you go peacefully" whooo that part right there, had to let my ex go peacefully, it was hard but made me stronger🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻, thank you for this beautiful song Lady Wray
Kinda sad that real music that we need isn't mainstream. We all know how wicked & evil the industry is- this music has soul. but I stumbled upon it when it should b everywhere
Welcome back Lady Wray aka Nicole Wray. your voice now sounds like the great female black artist of the 60's and 70's. The words to Piece of Me is so full of SOUL. This style is YOU!!! Please continue to write songs we can connect to........

Our parents and grandparents were born in good times. Musicans were casually dropping gems like this.
Lady Wray, my queen of Big Crown records. Heartbreaking voice, beautiful arrangement, Soul in perfection. I luv u all
After watching Bet Finding I can see this song on the Adult R&B Charts! #RealMusic #Soul
This one deserves millions of views..
These lyrics...😭 words traveling on that nostalgic, 70s type music can touch you in places you never imagined. So this is what real music sounds like & here I was thinking it was gone. Thank you Lady Wray!
Been looking for that Mary J soul for a minute. But this has an Aretha feel. ❤️👑
yaya somehow i hear a little Lauryn Hill too, just amazing and pure. new fan for life
@@clumsiii def a Lauryn Hill vibe! Feels deeper than Aretha to me, maybe a bit of Etta James
Facts
@@clumsiii pure indeed!!!
Everyone I've shared this song with has loved it and I'm still sharing it in 2023
Finding Nicole Wray brought me here! I love this song.
Music you can feel!
Got that Mary J Blige Vibe . I LOVE It
I feel like this song was wrote just for me and my life. I can't stop listening/crying it's too close to my spirit......Thanks
"Ozark" season 3 episode 8 brought me back to what was already in my playlist 😊

When you find a song that expresses EVERYTHING that you are Feeling... Beautifully done Queen. 💎
Thank you Reese’s commercial for bringing me to this gold track
Finding Nicole Wray just watched and I'm in love!! With this song I use to love her back in the day I was so happy to see they found her.
Ozark brought me here! Damn this show just understands good music. This song is fricken KILLER
I cry when I hear this. This song hit my emotions n gives me strength.
I feel this all through my soul... That feel good REAL music 🎶 wooo repeat 🔛🔂↩️
Bout time we get to hear lady Wray
She reminds me of Miss Sharon Jones, may Yahawa bless her soul.
Rest in peace to the great Sharon Jones. Reminded me of her too. Shout to the Dap Kings!!!!
If it were 1990 Lady Wray would be today's Mary J Blieg keep on singing from your soul sista
She was out in the 90s as Nicole Wray
Big Crown Records you need to make Lady Wray and her music more popular on the radio. I think she should look into the secular and Christian markets because I think her music would speak and touch a lot of people just like the song Piece of Me did for me.
Everyone who came here from Finding Nicole Wray need to all go buy and stream her music! She’s way too talented to be slept on.
Found this song on Nicole's recent BET episode. Now downloaded it on all my devices and its on repeat. This song is a BANGER!!! And needs more push. This is REAL MUSIC!! Bravo Lady Wray!
Period
I can listen to this song all day. Giving me Aretha Franklin
"Until You Come Back To Me" vibes
This reminds me of a song from the 70's
Lady Wray, you are such an inspiration! Your BET episode brought me here.
Bobby Oroza - Should I Take You Home brought me here. Tnx algorithm you did good.
Lovin the oldies vibe, I'm living for this! ❤❤❤❤🎙😍
Modern oldies
I can't wait for music to revisit the past. The music they are playing now is so depressing and so down in the dirt. My mom said everything to recycle,.. we are all waiting for the change of pure music to return.
This is my jam jam! So SOULFUL I love it! I'm so here for it! Sis is slept on!
This Woman is making Timeless music. Please don’t stop.
Glad I watched “finding Nicole Wray” love this song!!!!! Totally here for Nicole!
Idk how many times I listened to this in recent weeks. This'll probably still play on my stereo when my kids have kids.
In tears, crazy how much this touches my soul
This song just hits different. Literally changes my mood & makes me stop what I’m doing & listen when I hear it
Out of all of today's new classic soul revivalists, you're the one's that keep it 100%! By far the best. No doubt about it! 😉
I've been sprung on this song for a month ... Helped speak for my soul.....family related as well as break up related...so relevant! Lyrically this is way different...sometimes you can search for songs but nothing's good enough for what your going through ....this was perfect.
I recently got out of a decade long relationship. When I first hear this song..... it touched my heart, made me cry, and it helped.
BET. Finding Nichole Wray. Very inspiring story and that damn voice. This damn song. Man she sangin from her soul.
[Verse 1]
You've been the best of times
You walk me through my darkest days
Why must I turn around
I ask myself (I don't know)
This just ain't fair
So hard to bear
(it's not fair)
I'm not really sure these days
Sure these days
Sure these days
I've stashed the memories to ease the pain
You've been dear to me
That's why it's hard to walk away (walk away)
Remember when it was simple things (simple things)
I'm not really sure these days
[Chorus]
I'll let you take a piece of me
I hope you get the peace you need
And if that's not enough
I'll let you go peacefully, ah yeah
[Verse 2]
You've been around so long
You did me wrong
But it made me strong
I believed in you
You believed in me
To lean on you (lean on you)
But when I reached for you, you were not there (you're not home)
I'm not really sure these days
Sure these days
Sure these days
Blood is thicker than mud ya know
It may sound simple but that's all I know (all I know)
Even though he's hurting me, but I pray they see (pray they see)
Even though they're hurting me we're still family
[Chorus]
I'll let you take a piece of me
I hope you get the peace you need
And if that's not enough
I'll let you go peacefully, ah yeah
[Bridge]
Let it be, let it be
Harmony, harmony
[Chorus]
And if that's not enough...
I'll let you take a piece of me
I hope you get the peace you need
And if that's not enough
I'll let you go peacefully, ah yeah
Ooooh. A perfect song for me right now. Thanks for posting the lyrics! ❤️❤️❤️

Sang it girl, this is the my kind of music..So missed this kind of voice and vibe nowadays...
Excuse the language, but this tune is the absolute effing bollocks! I bloody adore it! 😍😘👍💚
The late 60s,early 70s feel is ALL THAT!! DOPE AF!!
Grove + tone + voice + old school production and simple elegant song writing = HEAVEN!
I almost forgot what ACTUAL Music sounded like. Thanks for the reminder 😊
Kinda sad that real music that we need isn't mainstream. We all know how wicked & evil the industry is- this music has soul. but I stumbled upon it when it should b everywhere
Thanks BET(Finding Nicole Wray)love this..It definitely has that old school 70,s sound that I LOVE..
This is like my 3rd time listening to the song. It’s just that good. It’s very powerful and really spoke to me.
Nicole Wray. Doing her thing. Love her from "Make It Hot" days😎
Her voice is the peace I need❤️🙌🏾💯
This reminds me of back in Brooklyn at one of my Block Parties in 79. The Artist singing got mad soul!!!
I legit thought this tune was straight out of the 70s. Such a beautiful song! Glad I found it. And wow, that chorus!
Every time this takes me... masterpiecefully.
