R&B Songs about courage, support, inspiration, friendship, comfort, etc.?

OC Residen

Uplifting or feel-good R&B music from the last 5-9 years? No hip-hop (not trying to dance to these tunes). No gospel (unless the lyrics are secular enough for a wide audience). No Mariah Carey (too old), please.

I can't imagine there is a lot that would fall into this category these days, but I would like to see as many song ideas as possible.

Examples:

Mary J Blige - Stronger, Flying Away
Alicia Keys - No One (not a favorite track of mine, though)

Thank you.
Some close ones, but so far no keepers suggested so far. And it's discouraging when some folks don't fully read or blatantly disregard parts of the question too (such as suggesting Mariah Carey or older artists when specifically asked not to).
