"If You Want Me to Stay" is a 1973 hit single by Sly and the Family Stone, from their album ''Fresh''. The single was the band's final Top 20 pop hit, and is the best-known of its post-''There's a Riot Goin' On'' recordings. Stone recorded the song without much input from the rest of the band; by the early 1970s, he had begun crafting most of his material by himself. An alternate version of "If You Want Me to Stay", as well as most of the rest of the ''Fresh'' album, was completed before Stone decided to scrap the masters and re-record the album. These alternate versions have surfaced in underground markets, online auctions, and specialty shops. However, in Epic's 2007 reissue of ''Fresh'', five bonus tracks are included, all of which are directly from the alternate mix of the album. "If You Want Me to Stay" reached number 12 on the Pop Chart, and number-three on the Billboard R&B Singles Chart. ==Song analysis== The lyrics of "If You Want Me to Stay" feature frontman Sly Stone informing his lover that she has to let him be himself, otherwise he feels that he would have to leave. The composition has its origins in an apology Stone wrote to his future wife, Kathleen Silva, after a fight.
