Confused, confused every time I'm lost in your arms
Confused, confused by the way my heart sounds alarm
Are all your dreams for me alone
Or is there one who shares my throne
Abused, misused, tell me why you must hurt me so
Oh it's wrong sweetheart you know
There may come the day
When I hear you say
That you too have been confused
(Confused, confused every time I'm lost in your arms
Confused, confused by the way my heart sounds alarm)
Abused, misused, tell me why you must hurt me so
Oh it's wrong sweetheart you know
There may come that day
When I hear you say
You use me, then refuse me
Oh you brought this lovesick heart so much pain
You abused me, confused me
But still I love you just the same
I can recall when I came first of all
Lord I thought our love would never change
But you use me, confused me
But still I love you just the same
I can recall when I come first of all
And I thought our kind of love would never change
But you used me, confused me
But still I love you just the same
Talking 'bout a woman
Talkin' 'bout a man
I just can't seem to get it together
Joining hand to hand
The clock, it ticks and it tocks
But my heart is on the rocks
I'm confused, so confused
And I've got to tell you something's wrong with my views, yeah
I'm confused, so confused
And I've got to tell you something's wrong with my views
I can't choose
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Let me feel good inside
All I wanna do is love you, love you, love you
Instead of making you cry
But when I come around
I'd just left another on the other side of town
I'm confused, so confused
And I've got to tell you something's wrong with my views
I can't choose
I'm confused, so confused
And I've got to tell you something's wrong with my views
I can't choose
You ask me if I love you, baby
And I tell that I do
But don't you ask me if you're the only one, woman
'Cause' I can't say that it's true
Talkin' about a woman
Talkin 'bout a man
I just can't seem to get it together
Join woman to man hand to hand
The clock it ticks and it tocks
But my heart is on the rocks
I'm confused, so confused
And I've got to tell you something's wrong with my views
I can't choose
I'm confused yeah, so confused
And I've got to tell you something's wrong with my views

And I've got to tell you something's wrong with my views
I just can't, I just can't choose
Oh yeah baby
It's a dog gone shame
And lately, I, been so confused
Dropped outta school got a beef and got a tool
Now I'm ready to chop ya crew
Been talkin to tha devil is whateva with lil bo
You ain't heard I was raised by some hard heads
They locked up or they all dead
Spoon fed or dog fed
We untame, that's how I play it
And everybody changin, trippin all a sudden
Ain't askin how I'm feelin they just askin me for money
Now three years ago they talked about me,
Criticized me, and laughed at me
Called me local joker had lil boosie finna stop rappin
I'm still so confused, got bread and still ain't happy
Cause I'm lost without these pictures, lil I and my fuckin daddy
God tell me bout this ho right here, is this just a ho right here? will she keep it gutta if a nigga go and blow this year
That purp is what we smoke this year
Blowin up I see it clear

That hatin cause I shake back
Brand new monte, take that
Real spinnas on it, whatever they want

Jung-out style
And I got a five westin connection,
Ask my nigga lil rob
And I got diamonds on my pinky ring
Niggas wanna stank me manye
I flood the city with drank now they callin me the drank king
I'm still tryna maintain, fore I catch me a case
Tryna make baton rouge look like cali and you still gon hate?
And I don't lost alot of niggas, my trust fucked up
And I done did some dirty shit that's why my luck fucked up
It ain't no purple in the city so I'm sippin that tus
I mention like smoke out friday when he hit that dust
Member of them zigzag big sacks them burberry dates
When you snatched your first purse went hit the mall and got laid
Manye they got niggas in the grave so confused
They saw they death comin and they could'ntduck them tools
And lately, I been gettin too motherfuckin high
I'm on my third blunt before the fuckin sun rise
From the cradle to the grave,
I'm gon always keep it gutta
I should be number 1 on everybodys list, motherfucka
Well he's not necessarily tryin' to say that he minds it
But someone plays evil tricks on that kid
Well he's not necessarily tryin' to say God can't be trusted
But someone plays evil tricks on that kid
And certain situations scream for deviations
But somehow he always gets stuck in the middle
Of this and that and man he should try less
Every time he's rejected man he loses affection
But don't we all, don't we just got to give a little time
Maybe give a friend a call instead of makin' him
Confused
What a terrible thing for you to do
What an awful thing for you to say
What a terrible thing for you to relate
Well I know some people's they got a little less than nothing
They will still find some to spare
And other people got more than they could use
But they don't share
And some people got problems man
They got awful complications
Other people got perfect situations
With no provocation
But don't we all, don't we just got to give a little time
Maybe give a friend a call instead of makin' him
Confused
What a terrible thing for you to do
What an awful thing for you to say
What a terrible thing for you
Confused
What a terrible thing for you to do
What an awful thing for you to say
What a terrible thing for you to relate
Somehow we always get stuck in the middle
(Somehow we always got stuck in the middle)
Confused
(Somehow we always got stuck in the middle)
What an awful thing for you to do
(Somehow we always got stuck in the middle)
Confused
(Somehow we always got stuck in the middle)
What an awful thing for you to say
skyscraper so call said
they're choking out the sun
and we're all so paranoid of everyone
there's no trust, no love
no future for mankind
if this life's about getting ahead
i'll just stay behind
poisoned clouds raining down from above
don't know what we're thinking
in a life there's no love
let's start a war for financial stability
this world has become our graveyard
and still we can't see

learn from history to kill better
(times 3)
disconnected since birth
success is weighed by your worth
what is economics?
its the power and who has got it
words i don't understand
progress means to rape the land
really does history teach?
I stand looking for a friend
Someone I can rely on
All the people laugh at me
I hide in my room
They don't understand me
Think that I have gone insane
These four walls are closing on me
Can't they realize my pain
Confused, confused, confused
Can't you see that I'm confused?
The wild state of affairs
Gets worse and worse day by day
Everybody seems to be confused
No one ever knows the way
But still life carries on
And you live a day and you just wait
You only get one chance, don't let it just slip away
Confused, confused, confused

On which side am I?
This one or that one
I'm so messed up
And I can't fuckin' understand
What's going on
I've found myself
Caught in a position - once again
That I'm not sure
If that's the way
That I wanted it to be
And I'm so confused
I was sure we're going
In a special direction
I guess I was wrong again
Can't seem to find an answer
Or salvation
The TV is shut
Yeah, I'm alone again
Thinking of where I was
Where I've been
My walls are white
But i see only black
It can't be you
'Cause I don't think
That your shadow
Is that big
And I'm so confused
I was sure we're going
In a special direction
I guess I was wrong again
Can't seem to find an answer
Or salvation
Sometimes it feels so weird
And I don't know what to decide
This side or this side
My mind is so messed up
Can I manage on my own?
Or do I need you by my side
To help me clear my doubts
I've been through so many changes I don't know which way to go
Yet I've got it so together I can see with my eyes open or with my eyes
closed
Late at night I cry and wonder why my life's goin', goin' nowhere
But during the day everything is okay, I'm having it my way, I say
My teachers tell me that I am a lost soul, in a black hole
But my mind, it tells me that I'm doing just fine
Oh if everything is peachy, why can't anybody reach me
I've always said I don't need anybody else
Chorus:
I'm so confused
So confused
And I'm destined to lose
Unless I follow another way
Spent all my time lookin' for something never knew what for
Tried out all the options just to find that more pain and hurt was in store
Been through it all, but the one thing that I still run from is you
Still I remember 'bout all the things my momma said that you could do
She said that if I only let you in my life
You could take away the sorrow and the emptiness inside
But to be true, the life I'm living, it's hard to let it go
Though I've spent my whole life learning, there's so much that I don't know
(chorus x2)
I hear you calling, telling me to leave it all behind
If I could only find the answers to the questions in my mind
I wonder could it be my mind's not meant to understand
Maybe I should go with my heart and put my life in your hands
Surrender to you
[Verse 1]
I'm having a hard time understanding
Why you don't return my calls
When you see me you treat me like ya main man
Sometimes you don't know me at all
Do you want to be with me
Or do you want to leave me alone
I don't know how you could be so demandin
When you know you lead me on
[Hook]
What's holding you back babe
Are you scared of us?
Or are u lovin someone else
And it's me your tired of?
Baby I need to know right now

Day and night you got me wonderin
Howd it'd be if u were to call me your man

So baby why do u make plans?

Or fulfill your destiny
Let me know if ya heart is longin for me

[Hook]
What's holding you back babe

Or are u lovin someone else
And it's me your tired of?

[Chorus]
Cuz I'm confused

* [Verse 3]
I really wanna be with you but I'm confused
Do you wanna Be with me cuz I'm confused
I really wanna be with you but I'm confused
Ooh I don't get it, what the hell it is
All the things we say
In the papers, oh, read the papers
Read them yesterday
You hear it again from another friend
And I'm running, turning or walking
In the mirror of it all
So confused now, we're not amused now
We’re not coming at all
I see no change, I'm just the same
Lost in this place, just from my face
Guess I'll never be found
Ooh, where do I go? Which way do I follow?
I'm coming around
Face it, boy; you've had your time to choose
Come on now, you got no time to lose
Is this the way out, so I can sit out
Just another way here
Ooh, when you get there, oh I'll bet cha
People standing out there
I've had enough of getting rough
And I'm running, turning or walking
In the mirror of it all
So confused now about the news now
We’re not coming at all
I see no change, I'm just the same
Lost in this place, just from my face
Guess I'll never be found
Ooh, where do I go? Which way do I follow?
I'm coming around
Face it, boy; you've had your time to choose
Come on now, you’ve got no time to lose
All I get is, oh, what the hell it is
All the things we say
In the papers, read the papers
Kick it, uh, uh, uh, uh
I wanna be all alone
I guess, I got to be alone
But why I got to be alone?
Yeah, I?m so confused
I wanna be all alone
I guess, I got to be alone
But why I got to be alone?
Blackstreet, let me heart ya sing
Just want to be lonely
Don?t need nobody to control me
I?m tired of all the pressure on me
But what am I going to do?
I?m so confused
Can?t let you go no
Sometimes, I just don?t know
But I got to let it all show
I guess, I got to be all alone
Sometimes, I?m confused
About this thing I have for you
It makes me a little crazy
Putting me in this mood
I want to be on my own but
Then I want you home
You make me feel good
But I?d rather be all alone
Just want to be lonely
Don?t need nobody to control me
I?m tired of all the pressure on me
But what am I going to do?
I know it?s wrong for me to say it
And think this way
But I don?t want to see you
With nobody else but me
So, what am I supposed to do
When I?m so ashamed?
'Cause I may want to be alone
Just like I was yesterday
You need to take it all for real
And not for fun
Even though I?m getting tired
Of these indecisions
'Cause I don?t really know
What'cha want to choose?
One day I want you here
Next don?t bother, I?m so confused
Just want to be lonely
Don?t need nobody to control me
I?m tired of all the pressure on me
But what am I going to do?
I?m confused, that?s not the way I choose to
I want you and I feel you, it?s the control of me
I?m not the same, no one to blame
I can?t explain, I?m so confused
I wanna be all alone
I guess, I got to be alone
But why I got to be alone
Yeah, I?m so confused
I wanna be all alone
I guess, I got to be alone
But why I got to be alone
Uh, uh, uh
Just want to be lonely
Don?t need nobody to control me
I?m tired of all the pressure on me
You used me then refused me you brought this lovesick heart so much pain
You abused me confused me but still I love you just the same
I can recall when I came first of all and I thought our love will never ever change
You used me confused me but still I love you just the same
[ steel ]
Before I went out I'd never seen the day
But now I got out regret what I say
But now I got out I can't find my way
I'll be there if that's o.k.
Before I went out I'd never seen the day
But now I got out regret what I say
But now I got out I can't find my way
I'll be there if that's o.k.
I don't care
I want my fucking
I don't care
I want my fucking life
I don't care
I want my fucking
I don't care
I want my fucking life
Sometimes your life is just so full of shit
But you know it isn't nothing but shit
Just a bit more space and I might survive
Your life is nothing but a useless lie
I don't care
I want my fucking
I don't care
I want my fucking life
I don't care
I want my fucking
I don't care
I want my fucking life
I want my fucking life [x15]
Sometimes in the back of my mind
I feel like something struck me blind
Blind to the path leading out of the forest
Losing my grip, I slip into the darkness
Searching for a trace of serenity
I find myself dwelling in my own self pity
Either going up or coming down
Can I be the king or must I be the clown?
Let me tell you something about myself
I got problems, only I can tell
Let me tell you something about myself
I got problems, only I can tell
Please listen to me, I don't wanna be
Confused anymore
Please listen to me, I don't wanna be
Confused anymore
I'll start today just feeling fine
In reality my sanity is on the line
Why can't life flow nice and easy?
It's hard when happiness is there to tease me
Try to find fun for a brief escape
Someone save me before it's too late
Tell me not to listen to the voices in my head
Balancing factors I could use instead
Let me tell you something about myself
I got problems, only I can tell
Let me tell you something about myself
I got problems, only I can tell
Please listen to me, I don't wanna be
Confused anymore
Please listen to me, I don't wanna be
Confused anymore
Please listen to me, I don't wanna be
Confused anymore
Please listen to me, I don't wanna be
Confused anymore
Who controls the matter of circumstance?
Make my move and leave the rest up to chance
Take my hand, I'll lead you to a faraway place my friend
And there forever we can stay, forever we can stay
Every night I dream of places I've never been to
So real it blows my mind
Can somebody tell me where could I find these places
And maybe spend some time?
In time I'll see face after face
True and untrue, yeah
All good things come to those who wait for them
I'm still young, I have plenty of time
I'm so confused about the way I feel
I'm trying with all my mind
And if you ask me why, girl please be patient
And I'll be through when it's time
I like the way I feel and I hope you do yeah
I'm so curious I need to know
You said I could talk to you, and you would help me
And tell me things that I should know, oh yeah
As time goes on yeah, you know what?
I'll see the world baby
Oh I guess sometimes I'll have to grow up wondering
I hope I know what to do when it's time
I'm so confused about the way I feel
I'm trying with all my mind
So if you ask me why, girl please be patient
And I'll be through till it's time still trying, baby, I'm still trying baby
I'm so confused about the way I feel
I'm trying with all my mind
So if you ask me why, girl please be patient
And I'll be through till it's time
So dark and deep
All the shadows on the wall
They seem as real
As Dali's creatures, great and small
My hope is gone
All my demons come to call
From dust 'till dawn
I look so shelter from it all
Chorus
My life's confused
and I try to stumble through day
My mind's abused
Sitting at home with my head in my hands
Wondering what the day's gonna bring
Sitting alone with my feet in the sand
Been waiting for a change in direction
Dreaming of days when the night never came
Wishing for a night with no day
Dreaming of a life where the bulb never blows
Wishing to be left in the darkness
Today I know where I'm going
Tomorrow I'll be somewhere else
This morning I'll be a somebody
This evening I'm finding myself
Well are you confused, I guess you would be, so, so am I
Thinking of people calling my name but living life in solitude
Thinking of receiving an OBE, but it was over before I knew
Thinking of kissing a girl in the park but I'd rather be walking my dog
Back track, everybody knows just that
You're paranoid about the things that you just don't cut it flat
You're pullin' all the tricks from your sleeve
But only God knows what the hell you mean.
Stare out my window at the broken streets below
Feel the angst within me - soon I'm gonna blow.
Got a rage built up inside of me I'll never show
Love to stay and chat but I gotta go.
You second guess your life
Tryin' to make it all fit
Gotta stop your cryin'
And be more sure of it.
Inquisitive minds wanna interfere
Try n' figure out what the hell I'm doin' here.
Turn around the corner it's a brand new day
Strange the way today seems just like yesterday.
Try your best to free yourself from anxiety
I've been up, down, knees, cloud
Fading into view
Rise and fall, don't we all
Love to be confused
Make it natural naked fun
Force it make it wrong
Wait a day, a year, far too long
Don't you feel abused?
Drifting through the night
Nodding at the moon
Waited till the day
Withdrew, confused
Are you here to give it back?
Are you afraid I won't let go?
That I'm a warm denier, a cold desire
Remote without control
Cross the border through
Your room and into mine
If there's something you want
Let it tell you what to do
(N. Brown/J. Rwakaara)
I feel a challenge in my soul today
Questioning things I believed in so firmly yesterday
How can I have faith in myself and what I feel to be true
When the next day I feel my heart and mind telling me something new
I feel the twisting of my soul today
Something is challenging my perceptions
And what I'm going through is hard
And I admit, right now I'm not O.K. So...
Chorus:
Right now, I am confused
Right now, I don't exactly know what to choose
This day feels so unlike the rest
Right now, I am confused
I feel a burden in my spirit today
Feels like everything that I've ever trusted in
Has been washed away
I feel like I'm grappling for the truth
Don't understand decisions that I made while in my youth
In my mind I know I gotta live with what I've chosen
But in my heart I struggle
‘'cause I can't live with a heart that's frozen
Inside my heart and soul just want to fly
Bridge:
All my questions came to late
I don't get a chance to reevaluate?
Can not bear to live with choices I made
Gonna make a change
Feel a change in my soul today
Gonna let the past fade away
took me a while just to give it away
i've been saving it up
saving it up
no
took me a while just to tell you the truth
i've been saving it up
saving it up
no more time
if my face gives away i'm confused
terribly sorry to say you elude
carry a sigh on your head and you paint on your frown could i love you instead
i'll give you a chance if you leave one to me
where do we begin
where do we begin
if my face gives away i'm confused
terribly sorry to say you elude
carry a sigh on your head and you paint on your frown could i love you instead
i feel lonely
wouldn't you
i feel sorry
shouldn't you
no more
no more time
[Verse 1-Ali Vegas]
I was forced to live it
Other cats was brought up in it
Surrounded by drug spots, cemeteries, abortion clinics
I watch my older strong arms grow soft and timid
Until he got caught he sentenced and now he forced to been with
Up north's the sentence, I found a team to score and win with
And until this day we haven't lost a scrimmage
We floss a minute, we always know where to draw the limit
See the rich cop expensive shit to get the poor offended
My whole click related, until we situated
Seen five out the top ten that made it
Ballon'll get inflated due to diamonds and karats
The finest and fairest designed to blind the mind of a savage
Luckily I was raised by the Adriatic
That taught me how to keep my lyrics flaming crazy rapid
And still maintain an 80 average
Since Vegas was in a baby carriage
I always knew I would never sick of that train and care shit
I want to make the same impact that cocaine and crack did
What can I say I guess my moms raised me backwards
The streets ain't never offered me shit but a waiting casket
If I run I'm scared, but if I stay I'm dead
[Hook-Ali Vegas]
I'm confused
Sometimes I feel like I can't lose
Come back down to reality and tap the concrete with my shoes
I'm confused
Sometimes I feel like I can't lose
And my people keep telling me "Dog, get a grip"
[Verse 2-Ali Vegas]
We all awaiting Christ, others got money awaiting dice
Me, I had to stick with the stage and mic
My mother told me them toes that you step on today might be connected to that ass you kiss later in life
So I'ma take it like...
Throwing dice in great cracks, spending nights in state slacks
Life's a payback
I say life is a gift
They say with ever thing comes a price and a risk
Sleep was always nice with his fist and I was twice nice with the fifth
Eyes you to swift, I always wondered why the wise didn't rip
And why politicians always replace their lies with a myth
My mother always handled family ties with a twist
So I perfected my why's and my if's
So many try but they miss
When I die and I'm stiff, I want my music to be recognized more than this
I put a lot of thought in this since the days of being sent to the stores with lists
I decided rather poor or rich, Crisco is the closet I'm gone come to pouring Cris
And my rap lines is never bordemness
Just close your eyes and pick a side of the bone, I guess I got the shorter end
[Hook-Ali Vegas]
I'm confused
Sometimes I feel like I can't lose
Come back down to reality and tap the concrete with my shoes
I'm confused
Sometimes I feel like I can't lose
And my people keep telling me "Dog, get a grip"
[Verse 3-Ali Vegas]
Ayo it's hard to live where them losers crack jokes on retarded kids
And disrespectful kids get barred from the crib
Other cats stacking O's, dodging feds
God forbid I do something on earth that'll scar my kids
Lord knows my father did, starting fights in the bar with Mike
You get beat bloody with rods and pipes, just because you scar they knights
My squad will strike if the odds is right
Hundred killers with cars and bikes, hopped out on me and my moms one night
We had to flee in the lightning and rain
Now I see why Sleep smoke tress to ease and lighten the pain
As long as ideas keep enlightening the brain, and I keep writing them flames
Then I'ma be aiight in this game
Forget fighting with dames, keep it tight and my cypha won't change
Even if some judge try enditing the game
Most of y'all swift with the hands, but light in the aim
I stand looking for a friend,
Someone I can rely on,
All the people laugh at me,
I hide in my room,
They don't understand me,
Think that I have gone insane,
These four walls are closing on me,
Can't they realize my pain
Confused, confused, confused
Can't you see that I'm confused
The wild state of affairs gets worse and worse day by day,
Everybody seems to be confused,
No one ever knows the way
But still life carries on,
And you live a day and you just wait,
You only get one chance, don't let it just slip away
Confused, confused, confused
Kick it, uh, uh, uh, uh
I wanna be all alone
I guess I gotta be alone
But why I gotta be alone
Yeah, I'll so confused
I wanna be all alone
I guess I gotta be alone
But why I gotta be alone
BLACKstreet let me heart ya sing
[1] - Just wanna be alone please
Don't need nobody to control me
I'll tired of all the pressure on me
But what am I gonna do
I'll so confused
Can't let you go, no
Sometimes I just don't know
But I gotta let it all show
I guess I gotta be all alone
Sometimes I'll confused about this thing I have for you
It makes me a little bit crazy, puttin' me in this mood
I want to be on my own but then I want you home
You make me feel good but I'd rather be all alone
[Repeat 1]
I know it's wrong for me to say it and think this way
But I don't wanna see you with nobody else but me
So what am I supposed to do when I'll so ashamed
To say I wanna be alone just like I was yesterday
Oh, you need to take it all for real and not for fun
Even though I'll getting tired of these indecisions
'Cause I don't really know which one to choose
One day I want you here, next don't bother
I'll so confused
[Repeat 1]
I'll confused, that's not the way I choose to
I want you and I feel you, it's takin' control of me
I'll not the same, no one to blame
I can't explain, cuz I'll so confused
I wanna be all alone
I guess I gotta be alone
But why I gotta be alone
Yeah, I'll so confused
I wanna be all alone
I guess I gotta be alone
But why I gotta be alone
Uh, uh, uh
[Repeat 1]
[Repeat 1]
I get so confused
Intro
You see this is why I don't get chiks zee
First they crazy about chu, then thurr talkin'
Shit behind ya back, ya know?
Uh yo pimp juz fuck em hoes!
Verse one
At da age of fifth teen
You seemed like u were drinkin'
Coz when I passed u looked a lil tipsy
At dat time I knew I had ya hooked
But to my dismay u waz juz a crook
How cud I trust you, maybe
It waz juz lustful
I waz a sucker 4 ya comb rolls
Cute, manicured toes
But you were da first to declare
I juz listened to da words u shared
Baby neva asked me for billie
Or to pay for da ticket to phillie
I knew wat it was about
Its coz I had stuff to sort out
Dats y our lurv cud neva mount
Chorus
U tryna confuse me baby girl (damn!)
I guess u tryna use me baby girl (hell no!)
'cause i tell u i lurv u,
and u ask why did i choose u,
you just dont want me to have u 'cause u eyeing sum1 else
Verse two
Once she was outta ma grasp
I started smokin' way too much grass
I aint like a wacko, hu always harass
I saw u chillin' in his car
Inside am thinkin' too gud by far
Forget dat, I move ova to da bar
Inside am sinkin' into a jar
Am nu'in but a single one
Ma heart feels like it weighs a ton
Twurk, nigga keep waitin'
Chorus
U tryna confuse me baby girl (damn!)
I guess u tryna use me baby girl (hell no!)
'cause I tell u I lurv u,
And u ask me why did I choose u
You just don't want me to have u, 'cause u eyeing sum1 else
Verse three
She still chillin' ova at genesis
Thinkin' she riding big Pegasus
But shes still sending me signs
Tryna spit it through da wire
Think am a nigga up for hire
Damn bitch ma heart aint on fire
U want fame, u got da #1 supplier
Hook (chick speaking)
Baby I broke up wit him
Verse four
Now girls dont often take it this slow on me,
this one was takin her time to flow wit me,
I realized she had me traumatized
By the look of her eyes,
How lovely, But she was sayin i was thuggly.
In the past my relationships dint last,
Let's put that all behind 'cause now it's just us.
Ama give u all of me, turn all u fantasy into reality,
hope we gon be able to make our lives stable.
Like pancake n sweet maple.
Chorus
U tryna confuse me baby girl (damn!)
I guess u tryna use me baby girl (hell no!)
'cause i tell u i lurv u,
and u ask why did i choose u,
I feel a challenge in my soul today
Questioning things I believed in so firmly yesterday
How can I have faith in myself and what I feel to be
true
When the next day I feel my heart and mind telling me
something new
I feel the twisting of my soul today
Something is challenging my perceptions
And what I'm going through is hard
And I admit, right now I'm not O.K. So...
Chorus:
Right now, I am confused
Right now, I don't exactly know what to choose
This day feels so unlike the rest
Right now, I am confused
I feel a burden in my spirit today
Feels like everything that I've ever trusted in
Has been washed away
I feel like I'm grappling for the truth
Don't understand decisions that I made while in my
youth
In my mind I know I gotta live with what I've chosen
But in my heart I struggle
'Cuz I can't live with a heart that's frozen
Inside my heart and soul just want to fly
Bridge:
All my questions came to late
I don't get a chance to reevaluate?
Can not bear to live with choices I made
Gonna make a change
Feel a change in my soul today
Gonna let the past fade away
I’m so confused
Even while I know truth
Frozen pictures come alive
The comeback kids who let me die
When I didn’t know the answers
And the reason why the winter is begging for a fairytale
Tomorrow never sleeps
Behind the strangers
Where the children weep
A feather is drifting through my view
And all we have to do
Is to keep these broken wings
So they might fly
I’m so confused
Even while I know the truth
Thunderstorms and lighting
Not the bitter eye and the burning tongue
Nothing is stronger than my love
A whisper of dark cold air could cover up the little stare
You must search for the truth
You will find it
But I’m so confused
Even while I know the truth
Everyone needs someone
To feel the night has not yet died
I’m so confused
Even while I know what’s true
Yo, well it's Friday night, I just cashed my cheque
The weekend's here so my thoughts I collect
It's been a long week, but here comes the weekend
Time for girl seeking, should I hit the Beacon?
Or maybe the Apollo? Or should I just max in?
Take in a movie, hit the boom, relaxin
Couldn't decide so I just headed home
Pump the Walkman do on the headphone
Subway was packed, I couldn't find a seat
So I stood boppin to a Gangstarr beat
I'm in the last car so the buddha's in the air
Half an hour's passed, yeah I'm almost here
Got off the train, flagged down a taxi
A four dollar ride but he tried to tax me
Knew I wasn't havin it, I only gave him four
Got out the car then I slammed the door
In front of my building I saw my ex-girl
She had a knapsack on her back (Hello)
I said "Hello, what brings you around?
You used to try and diss me so don't say you miss me"
She said she made a mistake when she left me
for a kid whose pockets were hefty
And at the time I didn't have a dime
"So tell me what's on your mind?"
She said she wants me back, things will be fat
I said "Wait a minute baby, don't start attackin
Things have changed and I'm not hookin"
But she was still good lookin
[Chorus]
I'm so confused
I don't know what to do
I'm so confused, baby
I'm so confused
I don't know what to do
About me and you
Invited her in for a chit-chat
She offered me a Stog' but I said I wasn't with that
We began to conversate, I started to unwind
"Can I take my shoes off if you don't mind?"
Thinkin of the skins and whether I should hit em
She's makin it easy, cos now she throwin rhythm
Rubbin on my legs, lookin in my eyes
While I was schemin, memorise all the lies
So I just sit back, crack a six pack
Hit the boom and grabbed a handful of Tic Tacs
Now's the time, no need to start fakin
Let's commence the love makin
On and on til the next morn
Pumpin all night like Exxon
Feelings of guilt began to sprout so I stop
And like "As We Lay" by Shirley Murdock
I forgot about tomorrow and now I feel shaky
I know I was wrong and it makes me
think, what would I do if I found
that my main squeeze was the neighbourhood skeez
[Chorus]
I'm up before the honey so I drinks some juice
Try to fight the feeling but it's no use
I thought with the wrong head, nuff said
Can't tell me girl, I know that's dead
When she awoke I tried to play it off and say
"I gotta go but baby come another day"
She said "What's the rush?"
"My feelings will be crushed, if you keep me on a hush-hush"
What am I to do, I'm caught in a bind
but I gotta make up my mind
I said it was fun and we can do it again
Don't want a commitment but we can be friends
She said okay but I could see she was mad
Lookin in my eyes, like the sea she was sad
I don't mean to hurt you and lead you on
Rapture of passion, champagne glasses
Reality sets in, so honey, let's indulge
in conversation for the duration
And we can get together at another time (Why?)
Cos now's too much on my mind
Today
I had a smile on my face
Til I slept
It didn't change, it stayed
Today
We held hands
As a joke
Or was it?
I try to deny
That there's something inside
I lie to my friends
But it just never ends
We're just friends, aren't we?
Or do you feel something for me?
[Chorus:]
I'm confused
About you
Wish I knew
What I really feel
Are you
Confused too
'Cause I do
But I'm scared to be with you
C-O-N
F-U-S
It's what you do to me [x2]
Today
You rode on my back
And you stayed
In my mind
Today
You're all I talk about
It's annoying my friends
And it's annoying me too
I say that I don't
But they say I do
Do you really want me?
Wait, do I want you?
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
Today
You said that you liked me
But then
You walked away
Tonight
I missed you so much
And called
Confused!
Abused!
Why not choose?
I fucking lose!
Confused!
Confused!
Confused!
Fuck you!
Every
Decision I make
Is the biggest
Fucking mistake
Everything
I use or take
My whole life's
A fucking fake
Confused!
Abused!
Why not choose?
I fucking lose!
Intro:
I’m tired of all this pain
But I don’t know what do
I need help go through
Help me out……
Verse one:
Beginning-
My mind is spinning,
Don’t know what I wanna do.
That’s just the beginning,
It’s like I can’t even move.
I wanna go, I wanna stay
I’m so confused.
Don’t know what to say
Better yet don’t know what to do.

So stop, stop
Making me go crazy.
Get up and out, baby
Do you stay, do you go,
I think yes so get out the door.

It’s like dada dada dum
I want you back but want you gone,
Now I’m sitting no standing in the rain,
Tryna figure how to delete the pain.
So don’t walk out because if you leave,
You’d be cutting me open,
Making me bleed
I feel so confused
Do you love me,
I don’t want to be used
Bridge:
So stop, stop
Making me go crazy.
Get up and out, baby
Do you stay, do you go,

(whispering)
What is this place?
Where am I?
Does there anybody hear me?
Open this door
I can't breathe
You won't get what you want, keep dreaming
Show me your face
Don't bury me here
'Cause my time is up, I'm freezing
Watching you leave
What have I done?
How did I get here so young?
Loneliness, our brain invasion
Sharp extension, motivation to crawl
Loneliness, our brain invasion
Sharp extension, motivation to crawl
Loneliness, our brain invasion
Sharp extension, motivation to crawl
You think you're young again
It's an illusion, my friend
The fear will hit in waves
Imagine death on sunny days
Don't look at me like that
