Baby, everything is all right, uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is all right, uptight, out of sight
I'm a poor man's son, from across the railroad tracks,
the only shirt I own , is hanging on my back,
but I'm the envy of every single guy
since I'm the apple of my girls eye
when we go out stepping on the town.
For a while my money's low,
and my suit's out of style, but it's all right
if my clothes aren't new,
out of sight, because my heart is true,
she says baby everything is all right,
uptight, out of sight, baby everything is
You give me power to get out of bed
When in the morning I'm feeling dead
Living and loving there's a lot to be said it's true
Gonna say it about you
Gonna say it about you
Out of the darkness and into the light
Straight to the centre of everything right
Darling don't worry the sky will be bright and blue
When I say it about you
Gonna say it about you
I'll say it about you
When did you teach me to fly thru the air
Sooner or later we all will be there
I read the headlines and now I can swear it's true
And they said it about you
Gonna say it about you
Gonna say it about you
Gonna say it about you
Gonna say it about you
Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is all
right, uptight, out of sight.
I'm a poorman's son, from across the
railroad tracks,
The only shirt I own is hangin' on my back,
But I'm the
envy of ev'ry single guy

When we go
out stepping on the town for a while
My money's low and my suit's out of

But it's all right if my clothes aren't new
Out of sight
because my heart is true.
She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, out
of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of
sight.
I'm a pearl of a girl, I guess that's what you might say,
guess her folks brought her up that way,
The right side of the tracks, she
was born and raised
In a great big old house, full of butlers and
maids.
No one is better than I, I know I'm just an average guy,
football hero or smooth Don Juan,
Got empty pockets, you see I'm a poorman's
son.
She says give her the things that money can buy
But I'll never, never
make my baby cry,
And it's all right, what I can't do,
Out of sight
because my heart is true,
She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean
out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of
sight.
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, ah ah ah ah,
Baby,
ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight.
Baby, ev'rything is
alright, uptight, clean out of sight.

Usher Usher, yaaaaah man, true story,
Real G's wit me on this one, yah, yah, yah yah,
Wifey home, wedding band I'm a lucky man,
You'd think I'd be satisfied and truthfully yes I am,
But lately, only late at night I find it hard to sleep,
Stay struggling with the part of me that wants to run the streets,
My Mac is in my backpack, I'm surfing on the sites,
I'm chatting, this ain't cheating, just telling myself a lie,
And it's almost like I'm caught up and living another life,
Man I'm hungry for something, I need to feed this appetite
Tempted I must confess, but I better not make a mess,
Better give my girl my best put my b.s. under arrest,
cuz I love my lady,
Fellas if ya love your girl fight that appetite for the ladies, appetite for the ladies,
Coulda picked up the phone, could of ended up doing wrong,
Man I miss home, but I ate my dinner at home, cuz I love my lady,
Fellas if ya love your girl fight that appetite for the ladies, appetite for the ladies,
I'm not trying to be late, rush through security gates,
With weather in Atlanta, all out going flights delayed,
No rooms left in the Mandarin, I gotta figure out a play,
Sparked up some conversation, she was going the same way,
We started talking business, she handed me a card,
We exchanged information, I rented me a car,
While I'm driving she calling, I'm thinking this is how it starts,
Fine as hell but I don't wanna break my baby's heart, no nonooo.
They call me U.S.H.E.R R.A.Y.M.O.N.D,
and I just wanna do right by my lady,
But lately I been slippin up, fantasies bout dimes on the side,
dark tint on my ride, I gotta 10 in ride, I can hide,
I can't lie lie, but ever since I put that band on my hand,
More and more chicks trying to get at me,
then I don't know what to do,
Just trying to handle my grown man B.I,
Got a girl I don't want to lose, I don't want to lose,
Break her heart, I do want to do, I don't want to be that fool,
make that move,
Bend them a bit, but never break the rules, bend a bit but never break the rules
She got the door locked, and the lock don't fit, your key,
Yah you punching up her numbers in the ADT,
You'll be wondering how the hell I let this happen to me,
Better not feed feed feed that appetite,
Now your baby's gone, you putting out an APB
And some other brother, been tossing up your PYT
Get caught slippin you gone wish you would of listened to meeee,
Brother don't feed feed feed that appetite.
I woke up on the wrong side of the floor.
Made, made my way through the front door.
Broke my engagement with myself.
Perfect picture of bad health, another notch scratched on my belt.
The future just ain't what it used to be.
I got a new start on a dead end road.
Peaked, peaked out on reaching new lows.
Owe, I paid off all my debts to myself.
Perfect picture of bad health, another notch scratched on my belt.
The future's in my living room.
Uptight, I'm a nag with a gun.
All night, suicide's last call.
I've been uptight all night.
I'm a son of a gun.
Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight
Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight.
I'm a poorman's son, from across the railroad tracks,

I can see
That you and me
Live our lives in the pouring rain
And the raindrops beat out of time to our refrain
And you and me
Will win you'll see
People die in their living rooms
But they do not need this God almighty gloom
There's something warm about the rain
There's something warm
There's something warm
There's something warm in everything
I know there's something good
About you about you
I know there's something warm
There's something warm

He bought two fifths of lead free gasoline
Said, "The bottle is dusty, but my engine is clean"
He bought a nice blue suit with the money he could find
If his bride didn't like it, St.Peter wouldn't mind
But now I lie here so out of breath and over opiated
Maybe I couldn't catch up no but maybe he could've waited
Well the medicine man started seeing red
You think the snake just dreams up the poison in his head
While addicted to approval addicted to the air
It was see if you like it or see you up there
Now I lie here so out of breath and over opiated
Maybe I couldn't catch up no but maybe he could've waited, yeah
Now I lie here so out of breath and over opiated
Maybe I couldn't catch up no but maybe he could've waited
Now I lie here so out of breath and over opiated
Maybe I couldn't catch up no but maybe he could've waited
I always knew the way about you
I always knew the way about you
Always on my mind
Always take my time
Take my time and I can find my way
I never took the time to see through
I always knew the way about you
Always on my mind
Always take my time
Take my time and I can find my way
Always on my mind
Always take my time
Take my time and I can find my way
Always on my mind

Don't make a fuss, don't make a sound
I don't want this song to get shot to the ground
You're on the phone, I'm all alone
And my heart feels about 70 pounds
Tell the waiter that you're done
And you'd like it in a box to go
I don't think that there's a box
Big enough to put it in
And when you come home late at night
And your conscience carries an appetite
Take a fork and tear it apart
Come on, baby, eat my heart
Stepping on pedals, breaking the strings
These are all a few of my favorite things
But you don't approve, so I think I'm gonna move
And I'll have my ass out of the house by the spring
Tell your mama that I tried
But I cannot carry both of the loads
I don't think that there is a box
Big enough to put them in
When you come home late at night
And your conscience carries an appetite
My whole world is falling apart
Wipe your hands before you start
Come on, baby, eat my heart
Come on, baby, eat my heart
What can I do? First I think, then I lose
Did your parents ever tell you
That you were no good at all?
What's a guy to do?
Scrape this mud off of my shoes
My whole world is falling apart
Wash your hands before you start
Take a fork and tear it apart
Come on, baby, eat my heart
Tear it apart
(Come on, baby, eat my heart)
Tear it apart
(Come on, baby, eat my heart)
Tear it apart

chorus
Please be careful is never careful
Till it hears the gun
She will always pay the bills
For the, having big fun
He talks so well, what can you do?
It's pretty plain, he means it too
I don't want to sell you lines
I only mean to do you right
But I'm a simple slave of appetite
I'm a poor slave of appetite
Hunger howls, hunger's red
Hunger stays, till it's fed
Then it someh-h-how fades
Then it somehow leaves your sight
Depending on it's appetite
Depending on your appetite
So if you take, then put back good
If you steal, be Robin Hood
If your eyes are wanting all you see
Then I think I'll name you after me
So if you take, then put back good
If you steal, be Robin Hood
If your eyes are wanting all you see
Then I think I'll name you after me
I think I'll call you appetite
Here she is with two small problems
And the best part of the blame
Wishing she could call him heartache
But it's not a boy's name
If you grow up to be
Just like him, just like me
You're fighting for exclusive rights
For honeymoons each sleepless night
In which case I'll call you appetite
Yes I think I'll call you appetite
So if you take, then put back good
If you steal, be Robin Hood
If your eyes are wanting all you see
Then I think I'll name you after me
I think I'll call you appetite
So if you take, then put back good
If you steal, be Robin Hood
If your eyes are wanting all you see
Then I think I'll name you after me
I think I'll call you appetite
Then I think I'll name you after me
People it's not alright, feeling too uptight
But when we're faced with this
we gotta get going through the night
Too much is surround, sitting in holy ground
But whatever you're faced with
tonight you'll dance to whatever to your favorite sound
You gotta be there to know what I'm talking about
You gotta be there to know what I'm singing about
Ooooohhh
Just do the things you want, just do the things you need
Time flies like this and we gotta get it going indeed
All the damn people flood our stream and we're just in a dream
So tonight you're best to get together for future of the scene
You gotta be there to know what I'm talking about
You gotta be there to know what I'm singing about
Ooooohhh
Oh yeah!
Oh yeah!
Tonight you'll dance to whatever to your favorite sound
Tonight you'll dance to whatever to your favorite sound
Tonight you'll dance to whatever to your favorite sound
I've been thinking lately about You
When it hit me from nowhere, out of the gray
Everything's been coming together
Now that I've moved beyond myself
And wrapped my head around something else
It's not about me, it's gotta be about You
(Everyday and...)
All I wanna see is who You're turning me into
(In every way and...)
I will not forget that You said You'd always lead me through
To who I wanna be, making every part of me about You
I've been spending so much time disconnected
I was searching for perfection inside myself
But I finally turned away from my reflection
I saw Your world outside my door
And everything that I'd been looking for
So I'll lay down my pride 'cause You laid down Your life
And I'm giving up all that's holding me back
And clinging to You
And You'll lead me through
Tonight it seems unsure
If I'd made it up but then
We got 9 hours or more
It makes no difference
Cos that thought drifts right in
Or a focha wind
And tries to take me back
So I might have to go
Oh no
No-one has to tell me
I know I have to let it go
But it's so nice
Being uptight
So sorry that I never will be
The kinda guy you'll like
But it's so nice
Being uptight
Been treated like a sister
But here's something she don't know
In her basement hangs a picture
That fucked my heart up
A memory takes my hand
A real gentleman
In every way but one
That I don't know
Oh no
No-one has to tell me
I know I have to let it go
But it's so nice
Being uptight
So sorry that I'll never be
The kind of girl you'd like
But it's so nice
Being uptight
Got a name, all that remains
Some day you know this back will break
We're not a million miles away
I thought you were nice
I'd like to tell you twice
hey I like your band
come and take my hand
we'll travel to a distant land
I thought you were too cool
I feel like such a fool
well I live two hours away
I'll be back another day
maybe we could take guitars and play
I don't really know you
I've heard things about you
I thought you were nice
I'd like to tell you twice
hey I like your band
come and take my hand
we'll travel to a distant land
I thought you were too cool
I feel like such a fool
well I live two hours away
I'll be back another day
maybe we could take guitars and play
I don't really know you
I've heard things about you
about you
First the tide rushes in
Plants a kiss on the shore
Then rolls out to sea and the sea is very still once more
So I rush to your side
Like the oncoming tide with one burning thought
Will your arms open wide?
At last we're face to face
And as we kiss through an embrace
I can tell, I can feel
You are love, you are real
Really mine in the rain, in the dark, in the sun
Like the tide at its ebb
I'm at peace in the web of your arms
Drive out to see you
Been a long time
No expectations
Can't wait for her smile
Just friends this time
White dress is shinin'
She's lookin' so fine
Try to remember
Slipped my mind
Now we're just friends this time
Didn't mean for the kiss to come in
Wasn't part of the script that was gave
Please forgive
Wipe it away
Wipe it away
Don't let me stay
'Cause I got nothin' for you
No promises
I'm just in your ocean
I'll give you your room
Didn't mean for that kiss to come in
Wasn't part of the script that was gave
Please forgive
Wipe it away
Wipe it away
Won't you drive away
'Cause I'm no good for you
There's no place
In this place
That was built for you
Didn't mean for that kiss to come in
Wasn't part of the script that was gave
Please forgive
Wipe it away
Whip, whip, whip
Whip, whip, whip
Whip, whip, whip
Whip like that
Whip, whip, whip
Whip
Whip like that
Whip like that
Whip like that
We suffer everyday, what is it for?
These crowns of illusion are fooling us all
And now I am weary and I feel like I do
It's only you
Who can tell me apart
And it's only you
Who can turn my wooden heart
The size of our fight, it's just a dream
We've crushed everything
I can see in this mornin' selfishly
How we've failed and I feel like I do
It's only you
Who can tell me apart
And it's only you
Who can turn my wooden heart
Whip, whip, whip
Whip, whip, whip
Whip like that
Whip, whip, whip
Whip, whip, whip
Whip, whip, whip
Whip like that
Whip like that
Whip like
Whip like
Whip like that
Now that we've chosen to take all we can
This shade of autumn, a stale bitter end
Years of frustration lay down side by side
And it's only you
Who can tell me apart
And it's only you
Who can turn my wooden heart
It's only you
Who can tell me apart
And it's only you
You tuned out a reason
As it made a prey of your thoughts
But you won't believe them
As they're being broken apart
And I don't want to lose your faith
I don't want to let you down
Leaving you with more regret
Stealing everything I'd found
All because I want you bad
All because of appetite
It's my debt, my nature
So I cut the wire to myself
I've just been disabled
I don't have a thing left to sell
And I don't want to lose your faith
I don't want to let you down
Leaving you with more regret
Stealing everything I'd found
All because I want you bad
All because of appetite
All this strange, endless stuff
I've been made witness of
Isn't still near enough
I know, I know, I know...
And I don't want to lose your faith
Idon't want to let you down
Leaving you with more regret
Stealing everything I'd found
All because I want you bad
We were the children who need those dreams the worst
We asked for God but all they had left was church
We took the high road and they brought us down
But we kept right on we were bound
Me and you go a long time too
We’ve been through hell and survived high school
We played the records and we played the fool
Paris to Holland on a supersonic electric train
So many women but somehow it’s all the same
Tell those Nazis that we’re doing fine
And put Chet Baker on the line
Me and you go a long time too
We’ve been through hell and kept goin’ on through
I’d like to love you baby so taboo
But no one even knows and no one I have told
About you
The bottles are empty and I guess you could do the math
I never told you cause I figured you’d probably laugh
With your brown eyes sparkle
You’re waking in the midday sun
I once kissed a teller but I never played ring and run
Me and you go a long time too
We’ve been through hell and
Those stinkin’ public schools
All your dreams may they all be true
And no one even knows
No one I have chose
He stopped by the other day
Said he came to say he was leavin'
She just closed the door,let out a sigh
No more tears to cry
Now he's gone
No more tears
All the tears i cried have dried
Like fading diamonds in an ebbtide
Made her way back to the willow tree
Heard a honey bee humming softly
Saw the carving,still so very clear
Jack and Jill were here-now they're gone
So many tears
All the years i lived have died
Like fading diamonds in an ebbtide
Time to put away the fairytale
Let your ship set sail to the future
'Cause in the mirror there's a woman now
The child remains somehow
Never gone
No more fears
All the fears i has subside
Like fading diamonds in an ebbtide
All the tears i cried have dried
Like fading diamonds in an ebbtide
All the fears i has subside
Say goodbye to all your friends
they will miss you when this trends
I get so uptight, I get so uptight
I get so uptight, I get so uptight
(hey) Sit tight green light everybody's out at night, go
why don't you beeline, outshine, everybody blow your mind, go
why don't you see what they're saying, it's crazy, I've seen it
those things they believe in, they get hazy, I think I mean it
When the current drags me in (when the current drags me in)
leave me to the hands of men (leave me to the hands of men)
I get so uptight, I get so uptight
I get so uptight, I get so uptight
(hey) Sit tight green light everybody's out at night, go
why don't you beeline, outshine, everybody blow your mind, go
why don't you see what they're saying, it's crazy, I've seen it
those things they believe in, they get hazy, I think I mean it
(hey) Sit tight green light everybody's out at night, go
why don't you beeline, outshine, everybody blow your mind, go
why don't you see what they're saying, it's crazy, I've seen it
You know how the story goes,
boy meets girl, falls in love with girl
Doesn't want no one but he wants her
How it ends nobody knows, but they might end up together
Either way he's ever-changed by her
Sleepless nights never ending days
Wandering 'round in a help-less daze
Know where my interest lies
Deep inside your bright brown eyes
Don't ever question how I feel inside.
You may say I'm crazy, well I'm crazy about you
Can you blame me?
You know how the days go by life's never been much better
Realize now he never had a clue
About what love really is but it looks like he's enlightened
This time, He's a man brand-new.
Love, me like you do
And it will come right back to you
Don't ever question how I feel inside.
You may say I'm crazy well I'm crazy about you
I counted down
Just like you did before you said
It's too short how long I said
Is too short
Who's to blame
I contemplate if it's true
I'm born to remain star-crossed seems
He couldn't be respectable
Discreet
And if I found
What she said was true
What she said about you
What she said trust you
I should have known
When you said that you'd choose me
All that I want
Is to see some truth reflected
And to learn somehow
And to be strong somehow
In the state of mind
I'm in
And if I found
What she said was true
What she said about you
What she said trust you
I should have known
When you said that you'd choose me
Seperate stay strong
Seperate be bold
Seperate be brave
Seperate you'll grow
Seperate be brave
Seperate stay
And if I found
What she said was true
What she said about you
What she said trust you
I should have known
all that I am just what you made never gonna forgive you for that now
and all of of my mistakes yeah all that I made
guess I'm never gonna live them down
wipe them all away it's easier to face
when I don't have to watch them fail
and all that I am it's easier to face
and now I wipe them all away
it's easier to face
took just what you wanted never gonna give it back
you f#*@ed me around for the last time my friend
just because you got a pretty face don't mean
that i'll cave into you again
wipe them all away it's easier to face
when I don't have to watch it fail
know that I am it's easier to face
and now I wipe them all away
one last time it's easier to face
and now I wipe them all away
all of my gifts never gonna take back
all that i am just what you made
Can't find yourself where the shadows play
There is no God so you've got no faith
Go hide away forget and meet peace in dreams
Let thoughts melt and tangle let your mouth be sealed
Mirrors show a face
But the eyes are strange
Not yours
Can you tell what's real
Isn't it a dream
About you
Mirrors show a face
But the eyes are strange
Not yours
Can you tell what's real
Isn't it a dream
Good dreams fade out at the touch of moonlight
You go deep for oblivion down in the dark
Not to feel a thing, always be asleep, somewhere far away
'Cause the mundane and bland long for the morning gray
See me
I'm right here
To wake you up
And fight nightmares off
Stop running, you can't leave yourself behind
I am with you now and I'll always be there by your side
Say love is the mold that can shape life with sense
Then it seems only love can wipe away your pain
Mirrors show a face
But the eyes are strange
Not yours
Can you tell what's real
Isn't it a dream
About you
Mirrors show a face
But the eyes are strange
Not yours
Can you tell what's real
Well I never thought in my wildest dreams
That anyone could be hung up the way you seem to be
If you were real(?) and the peoples friend
Then I'd understand
This impression that you're sending me
Don't you know the city can leave me cold
Everybody's so determined to be bought and sold
Let's get something
Out of the way
Nobody owns me no matter what they say
But baby, at this moment it seems that you want me
Ooh baby, at this moment it seems that you care
Oh yeah
Ooh baby, at this moment it seems that you want me
Oh baby, feels like we're already there
Yeah, yeah
It's up to you do what you wanna do
You can tell the truth or not
Come on baby, you might as well dance all night
There comes a time in everybody's life when you gotta do or die
Oh baby, please don't be uptight
Well now, even the strings on a fiddler's bow don't stay uptight forever
Baby, don't you know that
One day soon you're gonna have to crack
'Cause otherwise you're gonna give yourself a heart attack
Ooh baby, at this moment it seems that you want me
But baby, don't leave me up in the air
No, no, no, no
It's up to you do what you wanna do
You can tell the truth or not
Come on baby, you might as well dance all night
There comes a time in everybody's life when you gotta do or die
Oh baby, please don't be uptight
[Verse 1 - Cyhi]
It may seem I'm sitting on a fortune
But sometimes money is just so important
In my hood, I'm equivalent to Jordan
Dribbling on the court, but shawty out here recording
Tricking rather give it to an orphan
All you wanna do is hit the clique into a saw, eh?
Get her pregnant, then neglect it
Then you go an tell the chick "get an abortion"
Them types, CyHi is not endorsing
They sitting down to take a leak, I'm pissing on the porcelain...
I'm from the South, but my parents are New Yorkin'
Shouts out to Albany – I see you Uncle Norman!
Keep your family before friends
Cause God is the only one that come before them
You got a nephew? Well, go support him!
You got some nieces, make sure that you adore them
I miss mine, cause I'm always out here touring
Or with the strippers at the Hilton up on Cortland
One from Utah, the other one from Portland
We in Cali though, but I am from New Orleans
I can't lie, I lust for things
Like an old-school black Old Cut supreme
Or an iced-out G shock and a custom ring
And a freak with an ass that sit above her jeans
But if not...
[Hook]
Woopty Doo!
Shawty say caked up.
Woopty Doo!
Just bought an Escalade truck
Woopty Doo!
Put some 26s on it
Woopty Doo!
She be looking pretty, don't it?
Woopty Doo!
You hit the club and made it rain
Woopty Doo!
You spend like 50 on the chain
But every 365 bro, you get a little wiser
And realize all that stupid shit you bought was lame
Cause it don't mean shit, when you out there on your own
Cause it don't mean shit, when the Feds run in your home
Cause it don't mean shit, when you can't take care of your kids
Cause it don't mean shit, I tell em:
Woopty Doo! Woopty Doo! Woopty Doo!
[Verse 2 - Big Sean]
Okay I'm rocking all gold
I feel like a Pharoah from b-b-b
Bullets is bigger than arrows
But in the middle of that peril
I'm still rocking new apparel
I just left the casino, I got money by the barrels
I feel like I'm Al Pacino
I'm counting Robert DiNero
If a bitch want more? Best believe me that I'm there
You can catch me in the middle of that field like a scarecrow
Only difference is that I'm never scared
I'm tired of the cloudy days
I'm wishing for the sun
You would've thought I was sterile
But I made it to the sky where angel asses erect us
Hollwood directors, Melrose dressers
Aston's around us
Toss another rounder, but if I fail
Will they catch me before the ground does?
Who your real friends and friends by technicality?
They ask how your mama is or ask for a salary
[Hook - Big Sean]
Woopty Doo!
Homie say he caked up
Woopty Doo!
Just bought an Escalade truck
Woopty Doo!
You put some 26s on it
Woopty Doo!
Yo shit be looking pretty, don't it?
Woopty Doo!
You hit the club and make it rain
Woopty Doo!
You spend like 50 on a chain
But every 365 bro, you get a little wiser
And realize all that stupid shit you bought was lame
Cause it don't mean shit, when you're out here on your own
Cause it don't mean shit, when them Feds run in your home
Cause it don't mean shit, if you can't take care of your kids
Cause it don't mean shit, Man, f-ck what ya did
I tell em:
Woopty Doo! Woopty Doo! Woopty Doo!
I tell em:
Woopty Doo! Woopty Doo! Woopty Doo!
[Verse 3 - Cyhi]
Patience is better than pride
So I'm riding factory without the leather inside
Half of y'all ain't got a car to put leather inside
Plus, the smaller the rim, the better the ride!
Suckers talk, but I never reply
Don't hate, cause I've never been a confederate guy
So when I die, I look God dead in the eye
He said I got a room for you and a bed in the sky
But y'all can't get no capital cause your priorities f-cked up
Part of the minority cause majority of us
Die by the gun and let authorities cuff us
Everyday is like Glory to us, bruh
So keep it cool shawty, let's see the tool shawty
Say they gangsta's but they ain't never made the news shawty
Call me St Lou' cause I'm giving you the blues shawty
If you see me in the Lamb', than you know that boo bought it
I was blessed to leave these streets
I took my furlough when I was 3 weeks deep
A lot of robbing if you not a goblin
I sold weed, but my partner rock a robbin like
"Twee lee lee"
I had the kush you wont admit you had the CGB
Yeah, so take it serious when you getting money
Got a soul for sale.
Just another lonely tale.
As he thinks what could have been...if he could just get off the shit.
It's been oh so long.
When to right your wrongs?
But the war is over and now they know, that your appetite has grown.
Listen to me, they all can see.
This ain't what momma wanted, and you're just a shadow of the man you used to be, boy.
says, "Can you help me? Runnin' on empty."
Doctor is on the phone, but there's nothing to do when your appetite has grown.
Oh what a lonely boy. He was a lonely boy.
Oh what lonely boy. You'll die alone, my boy.
Been uptight for all my life
Been uptight, I'm real uptight
My doctor told me I'm about to crack
I'm gonna drop dead from a heart attack
Been uptight for way too long
Been uptight, I'm real uptight
I had a girl but I wore her down
She told me "man, you're too uptight to be around"
Get me the hell out of here
I'm running out of control
I'm uptight, I'm not thinking clear
And I'm ready to blow
Tell me that I'm alright
Tell me I'm for real
I'm a fucking laboratory rat
And every breath I feel
Uptight
Uptight
La la la la la la la
been uptight, I'm real uptight
I had a job but I got the shaft
They fired me for being a decaf hypochondriac
Get me the hell out of here
I'm running out of control
I'm uptight, I'm not thinking clear
And I'm ready now to blow
Tell me that I'm alright
Tell me I'm for real
I'm a fucking laboratory rat
And every breath I feel
Uptight
Uptight
I've been uptight for all my life
None of you get it
None of you have a clue
I can't even leave my room
And when I wake up, I hide beneath my bed
I don't even eat, but I keep getting fatter
No matter where I go,
I think about you
Your heart is in my soul;
Can't live without you.
And when I see you again,
There's no face that I'd rather see;
And when you're here in my arms,
There's no place that I'd rather be.
No matter where I go,
I think about you...
I think about you...
No matter where you go,
My heart is with you.
And, baby, don't you know
I'll always miss you.
And when I see you again,
There's no face that I'd rather see.
And when I'm kissing your lips,
My fantasy has finally come true.
No matter where you go,
I think about you...
I think about you...
Ooh, ooh I think about you.
Say - Is it all in my mind ?
Am I just wasting my time ?
Baby, please let me know
That you are feeling the same
You're not just playing a game
Baby, please let it show
Show me you care - oh, oh
No matter where you go,
I think about you...
I think about you...
Ooh, ooh I think about you.
I think about you.
All the times have changed and I’m not the same old man
That girl has gone far away I’m moaning in my bed
Only you can help me to fly over my love again
Never stop crying since you’ve gone
Never stop thinking about you
All the evil you have done to my heart is all true
Nothing says to me if that girl was really you
I’ll never understand that empty place where you used to be
Think I will defend myself stopping crying
I don’t know the things about you
All about you, all about you, all about you
Only you can help me to go over my heart again
Think I will begin to drive myself

Night falls on my worst hell
My mind
My sanity isn't well
You're gone and friends are here to pray
While I wipe my tears away
Sorry about your loss
They console
But all that mattered is lost
You're gone
And friends are here to pray
While I'm crying out to heaven
Just to hear your name again
I can't believe that this could be the end
I need to feel your touch
Missing you so much
But I remember everything
I won't forget a single thing
About you
Staring up at the sky
2 weeks
Is like 5 years passing
Rising sun, breaks a brand new day
While I wipe the tears from yesterday away
Sometimes I hear you call
I turn but nothings there at all
Your gone with so much left to say
Can you hear it there from heaven
As I cry your name again
I can't believe that this could be the end
I need to feel your touch missing you so much
But I remember everything
I won't forget a single thing
People saying
Just give it time
And everything will work out and be fine
But they don't know no
Can't understand
I'd damnify my soul to turn back time
And make you mine
Again
Just to hear your name again
I can't believe that this could be the end
I need to feel your touch
Missing you so much
And I remember everything
I won't forget a single thing
Figure’s you would turn your back on what’s real.
Don’t even think about the way the kids feel.
Try to rip me off,
but you won’t get that.
In fact,
you get shit when you turn around
and stab me in the back,
because I’ll pay you back,
and the respect you got,
well I’m taking it back.
You sold your soul
but I refuse.
You’ve played yourself
and I guess that means you lose.
Yeah, I ain’t no joke!
And your just lucky you ain’t got your legs broke!
So now you’re thowing me the diss?
Well, yo man, it goes like this.
Round two is payback in full effect
with a fistful of logic falling out of my mouth.
Something smells like shit
and you’re the source.
See, you’ve got no word
and I’ve got mad voice.
Yo, no one shows me how to do my thing,
least of all some chump who can’t sing.
Keep it real,
but what’s your intent?
Take some time,
and think about what you represent!
And I’m talking about
when you preach what the kids want to hear,
it’s just a lot of useless noise,
like the ringing in my ear.
So keep dragging my name
when I’m not around.
Yo, don’t you know that
"competition has it’s way
of bringing you down!"
And that’s Word.
It ain’t no joke.
Just keep talking that shit and one day you’re going to choke.
And I turned my back on you?
Oh well, then that’s what I’m gonna have to do.
Boo-fucking Hoo!
When I see you standing there,
Over by the door...
I'm wishing that I'd know. I'm wishing that I'd know.
When I see you standing there,
Over by the door...
You're wishing that I'd go. And I'm wishing that you'd go.
Appetite
When I stepped up to the place,
The crowd on the floor
Gettin' downtown, swaying to the sounds
The thoughts were in the air, but the beats were on the ground
Asking to come down.
Won't you please come down?
Appetite
You know from town to town,
All the way from shore to shore....
You know this is my score.
You know this is my score.
From the front into the back
All the way from door to door
You know this is my score.
You know this is my score!
Appetite
When I see you standing there,
Over by the door...
I'm wishing that I'd know. I'm wishing that I'd know.
When I see you standing there,
Over by the door...
You're wishing that I'd go. And I'm wishing that you'd go.
The holiest of words that you'll ever hear
Are the words that I love you
Upon a welcome ear
Oh oh oh
But I'm seeking asylum from what I have done
I've broken the heart of
My dear and closest one
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Our routine was nearly perfect but so well rehearsed
Seemingly so flawless
But truthfully coerced
Oh, oh Anne
I'm thinkin' about you
Oh, oh Anne
I'm thinkin' about you
But the amber is dead now
No bellows could it save
No forced air or maneuvering
By the most zealest of faiths
Oh, oh Anne
I'm thinkin' about you
Oh, oh Anne
I'm thinkin' about you
Oh, oh Anne
I'm thinkin' about you
Oh, oh Anne
I'm thinkin' about you
There's this girl in a band, I see her every showWant
to get to know her, but I really don't know
Send her tender emails each & every day
She better start lovin' me there is no other way
Allison:
See this crazy guy, every time we play
He never takes his eyes off me, I wish he'd go away
I've never even talked to him, you'd think he'd get the
hint
I delete his silly emails, it's like they're never sent
Chorus:
Woah-oh, what am I gonna do?
Woah-oh-oh, what will I do?
Woah-oh-oh, what am I gonna do?
Woah-oh-oh, what will I do about you?
It all started at a show, she let me get a cup
I know I'll never be the same, I know I can't give up
She will be mine one day, I'll do what it takes
Because I am the greatest fan, I make no mistakes
Allison:
He got me water at a show, and now he thinks we're
friends
I'll never ask a guy again if this thing never ends
He's not in a band, in fact he's no even cool
And when the show is over, it's back to highschool
[horn players show off]
Next time that you come around, I won't think of you
My life will go on the same, if I don't see you
You won't haunt my dreams, and I won't see your face
Is it the way you do your eyebrows,
Or how you start your hair?
Could it be the smell of your perfume?
Or your beautiful skin?
I cant figure out,
what it is about you that makes me do,
the strangest things,
I cant help but love on you.
What it is about you (x4)
Maybe it’s the way you do your nails,
Or, the dresses you wear.
Could it be the twinkle in your eyes girl,
Or how you look so good when you stare.
I cant figure out,
what it is about you that makes me do,
the strangest of things,
I cant help but love on you.
What it is about you (x2)
every time you come around
(What it is about you)
I lose my defenses
(What it is about you.)
Girl you left me fallin, fallin,
Cant figure out,
(fallin fallin)
what it is about you
(Fallin, fallin,)
Cant figure out what it is about you
I cant figure out,
what it is about you that makes me do,
the strangest of things,
I cant help but love on you.
What it is about you
I wanna know
What it is about you
I cant put my finger on it
What it is about you
I wanna know
What it is about you
[Hook]
We should go out on a date, on a date, on a date, on a (date)
I'll pick you up around 8, around 8 around 8, around (eight)
She said that's great. That's great, that's great
Just don't be late. Just don't be (eight)
[Verse 1]
It was love at the profile pic
We was Facebook flirting, never even met her in person
But it seem like we was soulmates on the phone late
She my one and only, be there when I be lonely
Whenever she get horny, she would call me
But we speak in code cause her pop dukes be nosy
Tap in to the line like, “Nigga who you trying to wife”?
“I heard you was a rapper, but I don't see no lime light”
“But look I got these eye sights, used to be in the army”
“So don't you be retarded and make yourself a target”
“That's my word mark it, and if you ever think about sex
I want you to keep in my mind that my name is Mr. Marcus”
“So, we will see who gets fucked nigga”
“Trying to run up out the door, I'm at the door like “Hey, what's up, nigga”?
“You out of luck nigga, Choppa in my trunk nigga
If you feel a way then tell your pops I said “Wassup Nigga”?
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
Oh, and by the way, I like a well done souffle
Sit up under the stars, nice view of the lake
And we can get baked. I bring the cake, you bring the 8th
It's no backing down, it's 8 doobies to the face
Fuck that, and if you act right, I might let you fuck that
Grab up on my buttox and what not
So you better be in order nigga
Don't forget the product from them corner niggas
[Hook]
[Bridge]
I got what you want, I got what you need
I got that fire, I got the trees
Now let's get higher, let's be at peace
With the 7 seas, birds and the bees
[Verse 3]
Said I'm down for whatever you down for
We can catch a flick or do it quick on the down low
I can go down slow, you can go up in
When I'm in my zone I ain't stopping for nothing
Said I ain't stopping for nothing
When I'm in my zone I ain't stopping for nothing
When I'm in my zone I ain't stopping for nothing
Said when I'm in my zone, I ain't stopping for nothing
[Bridge]
I got what you want
I got what you need
I got that fire
I got the trees
I got what you want, I got what you want
I got what you need, I got what you need
Said I got that fire, I got the trees
Now let's get higher, birds and the bees
Birds and the bees x4
I got what you need
Let's get higher
Birds and the bees
I got what you need
Let's get higher
Birds and the bees
Tell me am I wrong girl
For being a fan of yours
That's why I'm singing this song girl
And I wanna take you on tour
Maybe you can give me backstage passes
24/7 open access
Headline you can be the artist
One night you can be the star just
Know that I'm a fan from afar that
Loves you and really thinks your perfect
Now that it's all on the surface
I just need to let you know that
Girl it's all about U (x8)
It seems, that we must be trading places
I am a fan of yours and to you I am just faceless
Face it, I probably ain't the first to say this
Really, I loved you when you used to tape shit
But still, I feel you're getting even better
My friends tell me you made it and I said you won't forget us
And if she came on stage to take my heart I would just let her
Staring into this crowd thinking here is where I get her
Maybe you can give me backstage passes
24/7 open access
Headline you can be the artist
One night you can be the star just
Know that I'm a fan from afar that
Loves you and really thinks your perfect
Now that it's all on the surface
I just need to let you know that
Girl it's all about U (x8)
I've been searching for so long
That when I find her it's gonna be all about you
But for now
Imma keep searching
Is she on the left?
Is she on the right?
Is she in the middle?
Is she on the bottom?
Innocence's gone way too easy
And you don't know how to face it
See your frail happiness
Is broken down by your desire
Tell me what to do
Tell me what to say
Cos I don't really know it
Everywhere I go seems so far away
But you don't care about it
I am so scared about you
Because I don't know you at all
Will you care
I am the only one who ever meant a damn to me
I am free and I will be until I die
I never cry
I laugh and kiss goodbye
All those suckers who thought they knew me..
And then there's you
The only peace I know
The glow that keeps me one with you
And then there's you
You make me so I see
The me that's now a part of you
I thought I'd never be anybody's one and only
No one could ever hold me down for the 1, 2, 3
I'm dazed, not confused
Abused and battered bruised
Losing nothing
Needing nobody to hold my hand
I am the only one who ever meant a damn to me
I am free and I will be until I die
And then there's you
The only peace I know
The glow that keeps me one with you
And then there's you
You make me so I see
The me that's now a part of you
I finally felt alive when you said you'd be here before long.
You know I cannot wait.
I tried to make the best of my lack of things to do,
now all I need is you.
I wish our distance would disappear.
You gotta know that I want you and I need you here.
I wish our distance would disappear.
You gotta know that I want you and I need you here.
The thought of you reminded me of what I've been missing,
I'm dying to see you.
The phone can only do so much.
I need to feel your touch, so don't make me wait.
I wish our distance would disappear.
You gotta know that I want you and I need you here.
I wish our distance would disappear.
You gotta know that I want you and I need you here.
I think of you when I'm alone.
I think when I'm afraid.
I think every day.
I think of you when I'm alone.
I think of you when I'm afraid.
I think of you every day.
I think of you when I'm alone.
I think of you when I'm afraid.
I think of you every day.
I think of you when I'm awake.
I think of you when I'm afraid.
I think of you every day.
I think of you when I'm awake.
I think of you when I'm with her.
I think of you every day.
I wish our distance would disappear.
You gotta know that I want you and I need you here.
I wish our distance would disappear.
You gotta know that I want you and I need you here.
I wish our distance would disappear.
You gotta know that I want you and I need you here.
Another child without a mother
A bastard son tired old man
Just wasting away as the pipe become his lover
Not a man in this world, understand?
Kill it quicker, stick it deeper
Tuning out the fights tonight
Got an itchy trigger finger
You know you ain't got the right
Another year of city streets
That child's child the casualty
Not a book in the world could ever reteach her belief
That there's more to this world than just death and debris
Kill it quicker, stick it deeper
Tuning out the fights tonight
Got an itchy trigger finger
You know you ain't got the right
Should you stay or should you go
Enduring pains but nothing grows
You never dream, I've always been
The look, the lips, the appetite.
