TLC is an American musical trio whose repertoire spanned R&B, hip-hop, soul, funk, and new jack swing. Originally consisting of singer Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins, rapper Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes and singer Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas, they found success in the 1990s while also enduring a series of spats with the law, each other, and the group's record label.
Initially, TLC achieved commercial success following the release of their debut album Ooooooohhh... On the TLC Tip, which sold four million copies worldwide. The group's second studio album, CrazySexyCool, went on to be certified diamond by the RIAA, and eventually sold 22 million copies worldwide. TLC released four multiplatinum studio albums before going on hiatus due to the death of Lopes in Honduras in 2002.
Billboard magazine ranked the group as one of the greatest musical trios. Between 1992 and 2003 the band accumulated ten top ten singles, four number one singles, four multiplatinum albums, and four Grammy Awards. At the end of 1999, the band was ranked as the seventh most successful act of the 1990s by Billboard. In 2008, the group was inducted into the All Time Hot 100 Artist Hall of Fame by the same magazine, at 56th place. That year it was also listed as the #25 R&B/hip-hop artist of the preceding 25 years. TLC is the best-selling American girl group of all time.
I, I feel so close in my head
I feel so close to my bed
You've got me spinning around
I feel like a big chandelier
Could crash any time around here
You've got me spinning around
When the world revolves around you
And then you revolve too
You've got me spinning around
Tryptizol, Librium, Carbitol
Tryptizol, Librium, Carbitol
I, I feel on top of the world
And you're my opposite girl
You've got me spinning around
Tryptizol, Librium, Carbitol

Cuz she thinks that
You're so faithful
Boy you're so dumb (dumb)

She thinks you're so faithful
So so dumb so dumb
And she's such a pretty girl
Dumb dumb dumb

Remeber back in da time
When da only sign we had was picket
But now in '94 it be
This way somethin' come wicked
Gangs killin' others fo colors
Thangs that we wear fo fashion
Other brothers take it fo a reason
To be blastin' what da cuff is goin' on
Not soft like buttercupus but
Had enough of singin' dat same song
See I stayed across da street from da projects
Took out yo momma trash and groceries
To her trunk to keep my pockets
Fat like cellulite only been to jail one week
Fo some shullbit and I pray to God I won't repeat
I shoulda pulled it when I had da chance to
No I shouldna did dat 'cause if I did dat
Yall would not hear dat fat shit
Dat keeps you on yo tippy -
Toes like dat sellout not callin' no names
But really who's bad
I go through obstacles like a whole box
Of condoms you can't forget
Where you come from
Take a good look in the mirror and tell
Me do you like what you see
Masters of deception corruption and evil
But you're always quick to point the finger
At me
Won't somebody tell me
I just don't understand
The ways of the world today
Sometimes I feel like there's nothing
To live for
So I'm longing for the days of yesterday
What gave you the right to misjudge me
And write me off on the wall
Acting as if you understand me
In reality you just don't know me at all
Sometimes I can't help but wonder
If this was how it's meant to be
But if you search deep enough in your soul
You'll always find a slight reminder of me
Won't somebody tell me
A-yo
If we could all agree to lettin'
Our souls become free of that sweet
Bitterness then whose chest would
Have the most seeds
I keep misfocusin' my needs
And this stress on my back
With them caps they be blastin'
Into my knap sack
Ain't no accidental deathtraps
My mishap is the fact that
I'm destined to snap
It's when I feel as though my body's
Able to go my mind is ready to flow
Did you know first you catch
And then I throw
It's my own sense of time
If I'm late it's 'cause I'm endin' my day
Just when the sun shines
And still gently advising the arisin'
Of the moon as it rolls around
Dialing....
Ringing...
Hello
What you doin'?

** Left Eye's little add ons will be in {}'s **
Chilli:
A scrub is a guy that thinks he's fly and is
also known as a buster {buster}
always talkin' about what he wants
and just sits on his broke ass
so (no)
I don't {uh uh uh} want your number
no I don't wanna give you mine
and no I don't wanna meet you nowhere
no I don't want none of your time {uh} and no
Chorus:
I don't want no scrub {no scrub}
a scrub is a guy {uh} that can't get no love {no love} from me
hanging out the passenger side
of his best friend's ride
trying to holler at me
I don't want no scrub {no scrub}
a scrub {uh-huh} is a guy that can't get no love {no love} from me
hanging {uh} out {uh-uh} the passenger side
of his best friend's ride
trying to holler at me
Chilli:
But a scrub's checkin' me
but his game is kinda weak
and i know that he cannot approach me
cuz I'm lookin' like class and he's looking like trash
can't get wit' a deadbeat ass {uh}
So {yeah} (no)
I don't want your number
no I don't wanna give you mine
and {said} no I don't wanna meet you nowhere
no I don't want none of {check it} your time (so no)
Chorus
Chilli:
If you don't have a car and you're walking
Oh yes son I'm talking to you
If you live at home wit' your momma
Oh yes son I'm talking to you
If you have a shorty but you don't show love
Oh yes son I'm talking to you {yeah}
Wanna get with me with no money
oh no I don't want no...
No {no scrub} scrub
{No love}
No {no scrub} scrub
{No love}
No No
No {no scrub} scrub
{No love}
No no no no
No no
Chorus
Left Eye:
See, if you can't spacially expand my horizon
Then that leaves you in the class with scrubs, never rising
I don't find it surprising
and if you don't have the Gs
To please me and bounce from here to the coast of overseas
SO, let me give you something to think about
Inundate your mind with intensions to turn you out
Can't forget the focus on the picture in front of me
You as clear as DVD on digital TV screen
Satisfy my apetite with something spectacular
Check your vernacular
and then I get back to ya
With diamond like precision
Insatiable is what I envision
Can't detect acquisition
from your friend's Expedition
Mr. Big Willy, if you really want to know
Ask Chilli, could I be a silly ho?
Not really
T-Boz and all my seoritas
are steppin' on you Filas
but you don't hear me, no
Chorus (until fade)
Yo ha ha
I wanna talk to the fellas for a minute
I want y'all to know
The flyest kinda ho
To get wit'
In '94 or period
She's CrazySexyCool
I'ma let y'all know what that be
Ha she's kinda like me
Wouldn't y'all like a girl
Who has a nice sense of humor
That can kick it make you laugh
Then on the other side
In the bedroom
Whip that thang on
Ya know what I'm sayin'
But uh when it's time to kick it, with the fellas
She can roll, get her stroll on
Ya know what I mean
Yeah
So that be like me
And Chilli, and Left Eye right
Yeah, CrazySexyCool
I get dat
Y'all share too
Ha ha
I never asked for this feeling
I never thought I would fall
I never knew how I felt
Till the day you were gone
I was lost
I never asked for red roses
I wasn't looking for love
Somehow I let my emotions take hold
And guess what all at once
I'm in love
Oh I miss you so much
I long for your love
It's scares me
Cuz my heart gets so weak
That I can't even breathe
How can you take things so easily
Baby why aren't you missing me?
Why did I act like you mattered
It was silly of me to believe
That if I just opened my heart
Things would come naturally
Jokes on me (yeah)
I did not ask for love letters
So why did you give them to me
How could I let your intentions
Get hold over me
So in love
So naive (oh baby)
And oh how I hate what you have done
Made me fall so deep in love
Got no cure
You're the only one I want
That I love oh baby
Baby why aren't you missing me?
Everytime I get to see you
I get this feelin'
It's so fuzzy inside
And as soon as I walk away from you
I'm still tasting your kiss
Saving it in my mind
It's not everyday I find
A guy that makes me smile all the time
Not the way that you do
All the guys I thought I used to love
Compared to you they don't match up
They got nothing on you
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And they'll do anything for you
A good love
Baby you got somethin' special
That has me thinking of settling down
You're the one my mama told me
Would sooner or later one day finally come around
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And they'll do anything for you
A good love

The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to
I think I found a good good good love
We can be lovers and friends too
And they'll do anything for you
A good love
You bring me joy
And you bring me much pleasure
I could never see myself leaving you ever
Your soft touch is good and it can't get no better
You have got my mind so caught up
I'm drunk off of your good love
I think I found a good good good love
The kind that will put it on you
The kind that you wanna hold on to

We can be lovers and friends too

There's over a thousand ways
To communicate in our world today
And it's a shame
That we don't connect
Chilli:
So if you also feel the need
For us to come together
Will you communicate with me?
Virtual Vic-E:
Message sent
Yo, this is left eye speakin' for tlc
And as we're closin' out here
You need to know that words cannot
Express to you how important safe-sex is to us
What some of us toy around with can easily
Become a deadly weapon
So take it as serious as it is
And remember that protection is the priority
Hands up, what
Hands up, what
Hand-hands up, what
Hands up, get your hands up, what
This goes out to my ATL crew
If you feel it like I do
Do it all day, do it all night
You know how it goes [Uh, how it goes]
On and on and on and
You won't see me in it if the shoes ain't chromin'
Call me anywhere, globe phonin'
New home and, n****, we zonin'
No stress [Nah], nuttin' less [Uh-uh]
Than the black American Express [Oh]
I'm a pimp, what the f*** y'all expect
Put your hands up, this is So-So Def
Rollin' to the club, stop to get my grub on
Nothin' like those Krispy Kremes
Soon as I was done it was time to get my groove on
Find a place that's happenin' and I knew that it was
on
From the moment that I walked into the spot
It was bangin', it was swingin', oh
Till somethin' turned me off
I wasn't sure, coulda swore I saw you with someone
And then much to my surprise, oh
You were right there with your hands up in the air
You had hoochies everywhere
All on you
It's like I almost didn't know you
Tryin' to shake that a**
Player, you don't even dance
'Sup wit' you
It's like I don't even know you
You were right there with your hands up in the air
You had hoochies everywhere
All on you
It's like I almost didn't know you
Tryin' to shake that a**
Player, you don't even dance
'Sup wit' you
It's like I don't even know you
Left you at the crib 'cause I know you get your game
on
Happens every Tuesday night
You said that you was cool, your boys was comin' by
{Go baby have yourself a real good time} So I knew I
could be wrong
I was thinkin' there's no way it could be you
Not my baby, he ain't crazy, no
Then my girlfriends tipped me off
When I got closer I could tell that it was you
You was bangin', you was swingin', oh
You were right there with your hands up in the air
You had hoochies everywhere
All on you (All on you)
It's like I almost didn't know you (Didn't know you)
Tryin' to shake that a**
Player, you don't even dance
'Sup wit' you ('Sup wit' you)
It's like I don't even know you
You were right there with your hands up in the air
You had hoochies everywhere
All on you (All on you)
It's like I almost didn't know you (I didn't know)
Tryin' to shake that a**
Player, you don't even dance
'Sup wit' you ('Sup wit' you)
It's like I don't even know you
Yeah
I stay fresh to Def, you know that
Pull up in a Benz, valet, hold that
Not a scratch on my new chrome caps
Rim from my teeth, never chew gold caps
Step back, never seen throw back
No team on the front, no name on back
Need a forehead chick, got a big forehead
Charge 4 for a head, use her just for h***
I'm a young pimp, move kinda flashy wit' it
Every girl walkin' tryin' to pass me digits
Damn, there's a lot here and I just got here
The spot where we ???
I'm a stunner, got heat for the summer
Hit a club, got numbers, 21, none younger
Slim, no fronter, playtime in a Hummer
TLC Remix
You were right there with your hands up in the air

T-Boz:
You see I had this brother who was mad at me
Cuz I told my home girl that he wasn't packin'
Told the truth so I really don't give a damn
That I spilled the beans on his little short stem man (oh)
Some of y'all be foolin' us
Big feet big hands just plain big
but sex ain't worth a damn
We women wanna know these things
If y'all got the bat but not the swang
Bridge(Chili):
Put in work
If you don't want the girl to talk
And you don't want your feelings hurt
Put in work
Cause if you don't
That girl's just gon' go spreadin' the word
Chorus by all:
Girls talkin' got ya all caught out there
Why you thinkin' that it's all about ya
Forget she told me everything about ya
But the girls are talkin'
The girls are talkin'
Girls talk about the booty too
About the way a brother is hangin' too
When you didn't think that nobody knew
You see the girls are talkin'
The girls are talkin'
T-Boz:
Listen y'all need to know this
That we'll straight up go tell your business
So if you're gonna come you better come with it
If you ain't swingin' just put your tongue in it (oh)
Some of y'all be killin me
Thinkin' you got powers like Austin
But you're more like Mini-Me
And when you finally get your blood flowin'
It be lookin' like a pinky with a glove on it
Bridge Repeat

And you be hurtin' my ears with them lines so swift

Co-signin' from the sidelines tryin' to poke

You're small talk face the fact
You wanna rock the boat a little
Well earn your pass
And it's the last call for alcohol
Meet at the bar
Me and my girls doin' it big
We pop stars (yeah)
Chorus Repeat Till It Fades
Yo, this is a story of a male female threat to society
You know being misjudged and not respected for what we are
But I want to send this special shout out to my girl Tawana Brawley
Cause no matter what we say or what we do
They'll always believe his story (ow)
His story (yeahee, yeahee, yeahee)
Hist story (ow)
They're gonna believe
His story
His story
Why does it have to be that we get labeled for what we do
It's hard enough for us to be ourselves without being used
Girls have an image too
But when they get mad at you
There is no telling what they'll say to hurt you
This is a story of a male female threat to society
Why you wanna go and tell a lie on me? (yeahee, yeah, oooh)
His story over mine his story will be his story
And my story is a waste of time (aaaah-aah-aah)
They're gonna believe
Sometimes I feel like there is no reason for me to explain
No matter how much we complain
You know it all stays the same
They try to call us freaks
Why does it have to be
We can't get justified until we speak up (oooh)
This is a story of a male female threat to society
Why you wanna go and tell a lie on me? (yeahee, yeah, oooh)
His story over mine his story will be his story
And my story is a waste of time (aaaah-aah-aah)
(You know it's just a waste of my time)
They're gonna believe
His story over mine
So what you gonna do
Don't let it take over you (hey)
My story is a waste of time
It's hard enough to be ourselves without being used
So yo take it from me
Don't be a victim of society
You can't put yourself in a position to be neglected
And disrespected
You have to do what's not expected
Alright

His story over mine

They're gonna belive
His story over mine
His story will be his story and
My story is a waste of time
They're gonna belive
His story over mine
His story will be his story

I wish I could tie you up in my shoes make you feel unpretty too
I was told I was beautiful but what does that mean to you?
Look into the mirror who's inside there the one with the long hair
Same old me again today, yeah
My outsides look cool, my insides are blue
Every time I think I'm through it's because of you
I've tried different ways but it's all the same
At the end of the day I have myself to blame
I'm just trippin'
You can buy your hair if it won't grow
You can fix your nose if you say so
You can buy all the make up that M.A.C. can make
But if you can look inside you, find out who am I too
Be in a position to make me feel so damn unpretty
Yeah, I'll make you feel unpretty too
Never insecure until I met you, now I'm bein' stupid
I used to be so cute to me, just a little bit skinny
Why do I look to all these things? To keep you happy
Maybe get rid of you and then I'll get back to me, hey

Now t-l-c will challenge goodie mob
To a game of ghetto laser tag
When they say "what it is"
You scream "what it ain't"
1999 (yeah)
Tlc, the m-o-b
Goodie mob
The synergy of ghetto sounds
For the y-2-g
What you wanna do wit it
What it is and what it ain't (what)
Either you bring it (we gon' bring it)
Or you can't
Sometimes it gets kinda messy (sometimes)
Out there
But we get by (what you wanna do wit' it)
One day at a time
I still go eat
At waffle house
After 112
When I go out
Where do you hang
Or do you slang
Or wear a chain
Or platinum rings
I still maintain
My ghetto side i
Keep my pride
Get on my ride
20 inch rims
I sport a brim
Hang with my girls
Go to the mall
Around the world
And keep your change
The finest things
Will still remain so
Bridge:
Oooooh
Don't even look from across the room
You don't know enough about this world to
Ever get it on with me
Or hang out where I do
Ooooooh
Don't even look from across the floor
You don't have rhyme enough for no tour
To come upon a girl like me
And that's not a possibility
She's a built plastic girl
I'm a big boss man
I like old model cars and big sedans
You like two doors
Funding their clothes and rolls
I sit on the porch
Sip some and pose
I like the 9
When you're humpin' hot ho's
I do sweets while you preferred the lows
Tonight I'm choose 'cause ya already chose
It's grown folk business and I'll run the floor
Chorus:
'cause you ain't ghetto enuff for me
And you ain't hot enuff for me
And you ain't fly enuff for me
And you're too tight with your money
'cause you ain't ghetto enuff for me
And you ain't hot enuff for me
And you ain't fly enuff for me
And you're too tight with your money
Shit my baby is still ghetto like hot fries
I come from lovin' niggas
And give 20/20
With his bloodshot eyes
Got turned into gold
Went from two o's to thirty two lows
Which is enough to buy a rolls
Ain't but nobody knows
Stay in my place
Keep my diamonds out of your face
You wanna be with this player
Got to play at my pace
I'm slum but I can still cum
Over there where you're from
If you want some bullshit you better buy you some
Bridge
Shorty where your booty (shorty)
Shorty where your gold teeth
Shorty where your long nails
Shorty where your fake hair
Shorty got the attitude
All up in the news
To represent the 90's girl
You the oldies too
I got your back you got the front
It's time we pull it off in the woods
With the bump on them dubs ain't no scrubs
Don't conceal I'm a ghetto millionaire
Can you see me gettin' it clear
I'ma keep on servin' here like I'm supposed to baby
Chorus
What
Don't be suffocatin' my pockets
While I'm recessitatin' these topics
Like bring your g's where your loot
You're lookin' real dumb when you get the boot
What it is my road to me
Come from some of the hardest of streets
Me custom navigate to the club
With some of the hardest of beats
What it ain't what you sleepin' with all the shit that I've been through
'cause i'ma keep doin' all the things that I gots to do
Damn it I'll put your ass to work
Comb your nappy head till it hurts
Where those saints stop
These are the ropes
Take your wealth up the street
Or you might hurt your throat
You know you're ghetto
When you don't show up in court
For not payin' your child support
Or you too bullshit for me
You act like you're too good to eat
At church's, popeye's, and hartz
I shop at walter's bright creek
In the mall where it's steep and deep
I hang out in bank head
You prefer buckhead
Your favorite color is hot pink
I love that thing
What about your friends?
What about?
What about your friends?
What about, what about?
Every now and then I get a little crazy
That's not the way it's supposed to be
Sometimes my vision is a little hazy
I can't tell who I should trust or just who I let trust me, yeah
People try to say I act a little funny
But that's just a figure of speech to me
They tell me I changed because I got money
But if you were there before then you're still down with me
What about your friends?
Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again?
What about your friends?
Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around
Or will they turn their backs on you
Well is it me or can it be I'm a little too friendly
So to speak hypothetically say I supply creativity
To what others must take as a form of self-hate
Only to make an enemy which results in unfortunate destiny
They dog me out then be next to me
Just 'cause I am what some choose to envy
Every now and then I get a little easy
I let a lot of people depend on me
I never though they would ever deceive me
Don't you know when times got rough I was standing on my own?
I'll never let another get that close to me
You see I've grown a lot smarter now
Sometimes you have to choose and then you'll see
If your friend is true they'll be there with you through the thick and thin
What about your friends?
Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again?
What about your friends?
Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around
Or will they turn their backs on you
Yo, this is me, well is it me or can it be I'm a little too friendly
So to speak hypothetically say I supply creativity
To what others must take as a form of self-hate
Only to make an enemy which results in unfortunate destiny
They dog me out then be next to me
Just 'cause I am what some choose to envy
What about your friends?
Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again?
What about your friends?
Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around
Or will they turn their backs on you
People say I act a little funny, I wouldn't change not for no money
I'll be a friend as long as you're a friend to me, yeah, yeah
Even though I might seem easy, it don't give you no cause to deceive me
It's not the way I want my friends to ever be
What about your friends?
Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again?
What about your friends?
Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around
Or will they turn their backs on you
What about your friends?
Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again?
What about your friends?
Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Wanna take me back
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
I know I can't find in myself to love again
And if I take my time my time
I know this pain will end
This is the last time I get hurt
Again again again again
I'll just take it slow it slow
And I'm sure my heart will mend
Chorus:
Wanna take me back
But forget that you had a chance
But not again because I wanna win
Wanna take me back
But forget that you had a chance
But not again because I wanna win
No more in and out
Those ups and downs with you my friend
I'll take it like the man I had
But I must do it to him
Don't think you can keep running back
Again again again again
You want me back so bad
And it's a day of shame and you
Chorus
Chorus
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Wanna take me back
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Used to be just you and me
Now you see we used to be
Had a chance to be my man
Gonna win yeah that's my plan
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Chorus
Chorus
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
what i need from you is understanding how can we communicate.
If you don't hear me what i say so simple as 1,2,3 understanding is
what i mean. You don't even know me you just wanna do what u
wanna do. That's not the way it should be no. You should listen to me,
boyi tried so very hard to make you understand. But the chooses
you make baby they're all demands oh. I tried so very hard to keep
our love alive. But you don't wanna meet me half the way. Then the
understanding dies. Theres no way that we can work it out if we don't
pull togather. I don't need to be demanding. I want some
understanding. I wanna be with you
(chours)
I listen to you baby. And i know the things you going throug. I try to
understand. That's why I'm still with you baby. See everyday we
living. Theres one thing that'll always be unsure. That's why i need you
baby, Pleading baby. Please let our love endure
by: Laquita i copy this from xscape just to do something cause
How long do I let this thing go on
Before I run away
Not begging you to stay
But I'd like it if you could
And you're knowin' that you should
Be down with the one
That's gonna love you baby
So stay and stop drivin' me crazy
Chorus:
What's up
What's up with you and me
Baby I wanna know
What's up with us
What's up
What's up with you and me
Baby I wanna know
What's up with us
You see I'm not tryin'
To ride and pressure you
If it's somethin' you don't wanna do
But I got to let you know
Your position must be known
There ain't no reason to front
So I guess I will be blunt
And just let you know that
I'm walkin' out the door
Unless you tell me right now
What you're gonna do with my love
Oh baby
Chorus
I don't know why
But I've always tried
Why don't you lay down
Why don't you hang up your tie
What's up baby
What's up baby baby baby baby
Don't be afraid and don't
You fade on my escapade
Fantasy lives within the dream
That we have made
Callin' me up 6 in the mornin'
The break of dawn and
Before I could imagine that you'd be gone and
I think about the times we share
Call it do or dare
Ask me if I'm bein' fair
Do you really care
See me and you like a holiday
Never too late to celebrate in a lot of ways
What's up
We really don't need to play
These guessing games no more
What's up
I gave you all my love you said it was too much
You don't want no more
What's up
You really didn't need to play
These guessing games no more
What's up
I gave you all my love you said it was too much
You don't want no more
Chorus
Switch switch switch switch
I ain't one to be questioned
About who and where I've been
I ain't one to be questioned
About what time I came in
Tryna squeeze, baby please
Hit the road and don't come back
'Cause I can't trust a relationship
Wit no trust and that's a fact
Switch
Don't take no mess from nobody
Switch
If they act up just leave 'em alone
Switch
Don't take no mess from nobody
Switch
When ya done wit 'em you can send 'em home
I won't answer to no one
Until I feel I'm ready to
I'm gonna have my fun
Doin' the things I like to do
See I need space get off my case
Stop breathin' down my back
Cause we ain't gotta relationship If that's how you have to act
Commitment true devotion
Right now is not the way
For you to come at me
When I need it
I'm sure you'll be the first to know
But for now, in my plnas, no demands
I'm gonna have to make a switch
Switch
Throw his behind in a ditch
While my definition states as it relates
To us mates, one eliminates
Solely contemplates n' de associates
Like my new drink was V-8's
Just as quick as I get in it
I'll drop 'em in a minute
Like the dollaz
In my pocket, Speedy Gonzalez
Couldn't stop the way I spin it
I'm known for breakin' every speed limit
This switch could be infinite
I said L to da E to da F to the T to da E to the Y
Because I'm so fly
Bring it back to the E so come and see me
At the hotel motel Holiday Inn
I said if you man starts actin' upu
Switch and take his friend
Erase replace embrace new face come on
Whoot Whoot Whoot Whoooo
Whoot Whoot Whoot Whoooo
Whoot Whoot Whoot Whoooo
Whoot Whoot Whoot Whoooo
I ain't never been no Silly Ho
Waiting for your call
Like the other girls want you
I ain't never been no one to mess
With someone else's mess
That's not a thing for me to do
I ain't never been that chickenhead
To wake up in your bed
After every club or two
Wanna be the one in that mini skirt
Always wanna flirt
With every player on the team
If you really wanna find
Someone to get some behind
I ain't the one for you
If you really wanna know
Boy you need a silly ho
To do whatever you wanna do
If you really wanna find
Someone to get some behind
I ain't the one for you
If you really wanna know
Boy you need a silly ho
To do whatever you wanna do
Oooh oooh
I ain't never been no silly bitch
Waiting to get rich
From a nigga's bank account
I have always had my own things
Bought my own rings
Not goin' let you catch me out
You should take a lesson from me
I ain't the one to be
Depending on someone else
I can run a scam before he can
Better than a man
I always keep my game on dis
You know you can't get with this
One night you just
Go and must find a ho
To give it up
Why you even try your luck
Stuck on silly shit
Boy you know you need to quit
Ain't the one for all this
You missed out
I'm I'm I'm out
I'm out I'm out I'm out out out
I'm I'm I'm out out
I'm I'm out
I'm out out out
Oh oh oh oh

Chilli is on my right
(Yeah)
We gonna teach ya'll to shout
(Owwww)
Unhh
(Owwww)
Check it out
(Owwww, yeah)
What's up
What's up
Same damn time every hurt or two
Something can happen to put me in the mood
Keep it inside till I turn dark blue
Trash everything I ever gave to you
Wrote it on the front of your Lexus Coupe
Didn't want to leave you with a lame excuse
Sex so good turns love to abuse
Do you wanna leave I'll put you in a noose
It's not just when I'm in bed
Sometimes it's so frustratin'
I keep it all in my head
Till I just can't take it no more
It's not just when I get mad
Sometimes it's cuz I'm so glad
That you are near me now
I just have to get it out
Shout!
You gotta let me get it out
You gotta let it go away
Don't wanna spend another day
Unless I feel like you make me
Shout!
You gotta let me get it out
The feeling won't go away
Don't wanna spend another day
Unless I feel like you make me
Shout!
Found somethin' in your pocket
And I don't know why
I didn't say nothing' just sat and cried
Got me twisted all out inside
Not too long before the next ride
Over and over and over again
Instead of lettin' out I always let it in
This is where the confusion begins
Cuz if it don't make me you don't win
It's not just when I'm in bed
Sometimes it's so frustratin'
I keep it all in my head
Till I just can't take it no more
It's not just when I get mad
Sometimes it's cuz I'm so glad
That you are near me now
I just have to get it out
Baby just tell me what you wanna do
I can't help bein' in love with you
Cuz sometimes I need you to turn me out
Cuz that's what lovin' is all about
Baby just tell me what you wanna do
I can't help bein' in love with you
Cuz sometimes I need you to turn me out
Cuz that's what lovin' is all about
Yeah
Check it
I knew that it was only time
Before my rhymes
Would dig into my mind
And get crazy out of line
I do my best
To never disrespect
My girls from TLC
All my friends don't let me
Speak my love and peace
It's all about
In this world with a doubt
Is you down for the count
Do your hoes still amount
To the price that we pay
To remain up in this crucial game
Call it a test
A game of chess
Let's play
Me and you one on one
Breakin the ice
Till the water runs
Down my face like a chase
Now do you hear the guns
Here I come and won't quit
Until the job is done
Quiet storms will inform you
That I've just begun
Tippin' the spot till it's hot
If you want what I got
See me down to the dot dot com
And keep it comin' with your best shot
If you're short I care alot

Cadillac kinda class
She was the girl too fly
You know I had to check that name and number
Just like I did all the others
I turned them all out
She played right into everything I said
Took me out and then to bed
She'll be runnin' things instead
I never gave a second thought about it
Right then I knew she flipped it on me
She was reversal of a...
Chorus:
How could she do that to me
She macked the hell out of me
It was the it's the reversal of a dog
I must be totally blind
Completely out of my mind
It was the total reversal of a dog
Yo I hope you're not thinkin' for just a minute
That he'll refuse to let me in
Then I will stand and you can't win
And we can go for a ride
But you told me hat 2 back
Before I was steadily comin' at
Let's take the trip the welcome to the first side
It's the reversal of a dog
Bow wow wow yippie-yo-yippie-yay
Bow wow yippie-yo-yippie-yay
Bow wow wow yippie-yo-yippie-yay

Saw my girl the next day
Tried to make my next play
But she was nonchalant about it
She knew I couldn't live without it
So she played me bad
That girl could
Walk and she could pull my chain
I would jump to anything
The dog in me was not the same
I never could tell what it was about her
Right then I knew she flipped it on me
She was reversal of a...
Chorus
Yo I hope you're not thinkin' for just a minute
That he'll refuse to let me in
Then I will stand and you can't win
And we can go for a ride
But you told me hat 2 back
Before I was steadily comin' at
Let's take the trip the welcome to the first side
It's the reversal of a dog
Now take a look and try to see what you try to be
Well there's a hook and let's agree that it's only me
Keepin' it frontin' but you couldn't 'cause you thought
You can't depart me somebody already taught me
It's a version of a dog she turned out to be one
Come to think about it never though that I'd see one
My game was matched my baby tried to play me
Gladys don't forget this stash you can't fade me
Would it be better if I screamed sayonara
Or would you think you're good and misbehave with your drama
You're plan is scandalous but I know how to handle this
After you I'm layin' low no joke
Saw him the next day tryin' to make his next play
But I was nonchalant about it
I knew he couldn't live without it
So I played him crazy
That girl could jog but she would pull my chain
I would jump to anything
The dog in me was not the same
I never could tell what it was about it
Righ then I knew she flipped it on me
It was reversal of a...
Chorus
It's the reversal of a dog
Total of reversal of a dog
I figured out your game
I put you to shame
So why can't you see
You're just a dog to me (oh)
Total of reversal of a dog

I don't watch TV
'cause I can't stand the news
It's always bad news
It's like havin' a fortune
And now you ain't got a dime
It's all bad news
Talk shows show us how sick some people can be
But I don't let that bother me
I keep my eyes to the sky
And God in my life
So it don't bother me
It's Alright
Chorus:
It's alright
Lets party tonight
We're gonna have a good time
Lets just party on
Till the break of dawn
We're gonna have a good time
'cause it's alright
I can't lose my mind
'cause if I do
Party over- oops out of time
Thoughts of war
Hangin' in my mind
Party over oops out of time
We'll see the day
Mysteries unborken
Talk of war no more
Graduation rates so high
Nobody's a fool
Now that's good news
Chorus:
It's alright
Lets party tonight
We're gonna have a good time
Lets just party on
Till the break of dawn
We're gonna have a good time
'cause it's alright
Wanna dance with a cutie
In the pale moonlight
It's my duty
Check two fresh and fruity
Sweet like candy ass
Make a pass for the booty
I fantasize interludes
When I'm in the mood
See me in the nude
No time to rewind
When the bass line rides for two
Feel me in the groove
I rock on and on till the break of dawn
Feet don't stop me now come and sing along
As I get distracted with a two step
Pop that foot in hard
Time to break a sweat
Let it play Mr. DJ
Stimulatin' on the floor
Till I can't dance no more
Gotta react
If the club is packed
Where the party's at
It's Left Eye at the back door (back door)
Chorus:
It's alright
Lets party tonight
We're gonna have a good time
Lets just party on
Till the break of dawn
We're gonna have a good time
'cause it's alright
Chorus:
It's alright
Lets party tonight
We're gonna have a good time
Lets just party on
Till the break of dawn
We're gonna have a good time
'cause it's alright
Let's party
'cause It's Alright
I'm alright
Party Over- Oops out of time
It's Party Time
And I'm alright
And he's alright (tonight)
What are we gonna do Tron?
We're gonna make 'em dance!
Now I gave you a chance
But you couldn't do right
When I asked you for the truth
All you do is lie
And I'm like
Why the hell do I stay around?
When I know how you get down
Check it out
It's 2 in the morning (uh huh)
You just came in
And when I ask you where you've been
You say out with your friends
I wanna believe you
But I can't stay with you (yeah)
For one more day hey hey
When you had me
You didn't want me
Now I'm out the door
I'm happy
I'm so glad that we're not together
Cuz you're so sick
And I'm much better
Gave my world
I can't understand it
Now I'm gone and you can't handle it
I've been givin' you the cold shoulder
Why can't you accept it's over
I do what I want to
When I want to
You gotta get over me
But why do you still want me
When I don't want you
You gotta get over me
All in my face
Up in business
You gotta get over me
I'm free to do my own thing
So no more visits
You gotta get over me
Oh oh oh oh oh (oh oh oh)
Oh oh oh oh oh (oh oh oh)
I was the best that you had
And you let me slip
And now you want me back
But the shoe don't fit
And don't you
Worry about who I'm with
And just stay out my shhh...
Matter fact where's the keys to your crib
Cuz you're checkin' out
Take the clothes for your son
And get out my house
I'm so fed up
And I've had enough of the
Games you play
So I'm givin' up
When you had me
You didn't want me
Now I'm out the door
I'm happy
I'm so glad that we're not together
Cuz you're so sick
And I'm much better
Gave my world
I can't understand it
Now I'm gone and you can't handle it
I've been givin' you the cold shoulder
Why can't you accept it's over
I do what I want to
When I want to

I do need the checks (uh huh)
But don't need the games (uh uh)
You lie how could you and I
Be the same

From lil' kim, the queen bee
It's ladies night what, it must be angie on the mic
The butter p honey got the sugar got the spice
Roll the l's tight keep the rhymes right
Yo I just made this motherfucker up last night
And uhh... I'm the rookie on this all-star team
Me and kim is gettin' cream like thelma and louise
But on chrome never leave that brooklyn shit alone
So if you say it's on then it's on
Bang this in your whips
Pack 'em call the roadie with the chips in the wrists
Here's a french kiss
I dismissed all you chicks split six from the four-fifth
Make you dance ooowwww
I stay focused in the dopest
Like a penny with a hole in it y'all just hopeless
And toke this I ain't lyin'
Niggas tryin' to knock me off keep tryin'
All it takes is one phone call to my street team
Promote that ass like a soundtrack new jack ci-tay
Set it off with that eighty-fiftay
Y'all missin' the buck what the fuck
Bump biggie in the truck hand a buck to my several bitches
Lemme see ya do tha bankhead if ya richest
It's the rap mae west to q-b
And I got all my sisters with me
Chorus:
Oh this is ladies night, and our rhymes is tight
Oh this is ladies night, oh what a night (oh what a night)
Oh this is ladies night, and the feel is right
Oh this is ladies night, oh what a night (oh what a night)
Uhh, never the one packin' a gun
Got some other raw chicks for that lay that ass flat
I be the one chokin' ya paragraphs with laughs
Get ya back up on the right path
Ain't no stoppin' my ladies from club hoppin' gets my rock on
From flavors still frozen at paradise joint
Booty shakin' with the glass in my left one
Right hand sayin' step-son
To me my girls is fancy fly bitches
To my niggas straight snitches and to them other chicos
Lady pimp ain't havin' that shit
If you ain't got the cash to stash suck my dick hoes
Strictly a bell ringer
Lay another finger on this big bad wolf miss lady rap singer
I be the one to blame as the flames keep risin'
To the top and it don't stop
Chorus
Y'all see how these bogus niggas try not to notice the dopest bitches
Approachin' with good intentions but focusin' on they riches
If it's too hot then get the fuck up out the kitchen
Niggas dicks stay lifted when they thinkin' of me
Cause the rhythm I kick puzzle them like arithe-ma-tic
Fillin' 'em with sluggers off the nine milli luger click
Bitches bust we just, keep kickin' up dust
And you can spread rumors shit is makin me sicker than head tumors
Humor me by huggin' me sayin' you lovin' me
Playa phony niggas be buggin' I can tell
Cause the thug in me wanna sell drugs and push keys
Need to get me mo' of deez, vv's and m3's
Smoke weed from overseas pimped out styled rol-eys
Fuck the police keep my wallet obese
Who the windy city woman still comin' and gunnin'
Straight from the chi
Tonight's the night for all the ladies let's get high
Chorus
Aiyyo kim, heheh, ya know what I'm sayin'
I ain't even gon' leave without sayin somethin' on this track
You ain't gonna use me to just be singin' hooks
What I look like patti labelle or somebody nigga heheh
Check it out, uh huh, yeah
Oh what a night
You should be like missy 'stead of bein' like mike
I like to ride ponies instead of ridin' bikes
Me and lil' kim got the rhymes to incite
I gotta catch a flight
Aheheh, round three and shit
Niggas can't see us from elektra to undeas
Aaaaoooowwww niggas wanna be us
Heh I'm out heh, ooh
This is it this is the one
That's what I'm talkin' about right here
Yo puff I don't think they ready for this one
They ain't ready
You ready?
No doubt
Yea me too
Let's do it
If gettin' money is a crime then I confess
It ain't about money I could care less
I used to be a b now I'm a c breast
I get em hard you handle the rest
My music like heartburn burn your chest
Like a nigga stick the axe inside your backs
You be like "what the fuck was that shit!"
Gimme some more I love my fans
Gotta make em dance
Would I ever make a whack joint
Not a chance
Show my male friends call me m&m;'s
'cause my pussy melt in your mouth and not in your hands
Just a bad girl always rockin' dimes
With the see-who's-stockin' skaters with the lizzy's
Purpose with the deadbeats
Usually spited by my goldilocks
While first movin' flocks I'm movin' drops
Cop the ferrari when I'm roomin' the range
Two of the same it ain't a thang pocket the change
Now I'm just doin' my thing enjoyin' the fame
Why not ain't no other bitches hot in the game
Chorus:
Nobody do it better than us
Nobody do it better than us
Nobody do it better than us
Nobody do it better than us
Nobody do it better than us
Nobody do it better than us
Lil' kim yeah everybody knows me
In a class by myself never where the ho's be
I just avoid where all my foes be
'cause God damn muthafuckas is nosey
Wanna know what I'm wearing
What I'm drivin what I'm doin'
Where I hang out at who the fuck I'm screwin'
Damn I move way out to the boondocks
So I can have a little bit of privacy
You bought a tiny ass condo
Way across the water with a telescope
So you can spy on me
You clowns belong in the circus
Steady tryin' to hurt us
Tell me what's the purpose
They say I'm prejudice
The only presidents that I fuck with
Is the ones that's dead
Like the big heads
Never stingy with my benji's
Got enough dough to buy the west indies
Invest in fendi's own laurendi's
Start my own doll like mark & mindy's
Free all my niggas from the penitentiary
Yea keep puttin' out records till the turn of the century
Chorus
You got a 5 and I got a 6
Back it up
What's wrong with this picture nigga
Pack it up
I need a 6 figga nigga (uh huh)
Yours is big but mines is bigga
'cause the benji's is what it's all about
Do my ladies know what I'm talkin' about
If my shoes cost more than your car
Ha don't expect to get far
You the kinda nigga that like to plot
Call your friends tell em that you hit the jackpot
I keep razors in my bras
For all you womanizers
That's how much I despise it's up
I don't get it I ain't wit it
Can't see how other woman did it
Niggas screamin' gimme
Can't get a penny
Yea I got plenty
But you ain't got any?
Now picture me takin' my hard earned money
Throwin' it away by spendin' it on a dummy
All he gon' do is spend it on another honey
I say let the nigga stay bummy
I don't need a nigga I jerks it out
Take it old school and smurf it out
Give me a b and I'll merk it out
Niggas know qb gon' work it out!
Chorus
It was november on that cloudy day as I remember
Ten months into his life for a clock began that night
A strife she's on the panickin' tip
Get to the hospital quick
Jumped out the car 'fore it hit
She grabbed the baby and slipped to the ground
Saved the day thought everything was ok
To find him covered in blood
This is the story of love
Chorus:
Let me tell you what I know
Know I love you miss you so
Ain't no tighter wish in this world
Than to have you again
Dreaming you are here with me
Look the same from seein' you last
Ain't no tighter wish in this world
Than to have you again
There's an empty space in my heart
When things break down it's all because
Lonely days without you I have to figure out
Now wha' I'm gonna do
Don't mean to cry all the time
I know you're safe and sound
I don't think I could ever be satisfied again
Chorus
Whatever happened that day
That we lost baby jose
You gained a strength that no man
In this world could take away
And so I kicks this one for you
No tighter wish is true
It's not a day goes by that I don't think
Of little precious baby boo
And ''cause this moment is yours
I she'd my tears through the years till no more
Behind these closed doors
And you can count on me
From now till forever
We be them birds of a feather
Flyin' together through the stormy weather
It don't begin 'til it ends
Sing it again
And again, and again, and again, and again
Chorus
When people say to me (ay-o tangi)
I have a surprise for you
The first thing that comes in my mind (uh huh)
Is someone's 'bout to bring me you
Yo check it
I know sometimes you ask why
But don't cry just keep your head up high
'cause in them heavenly skies (you know I'm tryin')
Awaits the sun yes the one
One to come with your eyes
Tangi's eyes (I'm tryin')
And no he holds no remorse (I'm tryin')
Just ask the source he'll amend like I said
It don't begin 'til it ends
So sing it again
And again, and again, and again
And again, and again, and again
Chorus
Chorus
Ain't no tighter wish in this world
Than to have you (baby)
A scrub is a guy that thinks he's fly
And is also known as a buster (busta, busta...)
Always talkin' about what he wants
And just sits on his broke ass
So (no)
I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of your time and (no)
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
There's a scrub checkin' me
But his game is kinda weak
And I know that he cannot approach me
Cuz I'm lookin' like class and he's lookin' like trash
Can't get wit' no deadbeat ass
So (no) (yea, yea)
I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of your time (no)
If you don't have a car and you're walking
Oh yes son I'm talking to you
If you live at home wit' your momma
Oh yes son I'm talking to you (baby)
If you have a shorty that you don't show love
Oh yes son I'm talking to you (yea yea yea yea...)
Wanna get with me with no money
Oh no I don't want no (oh)
No scrub (no scrub, no love)
No scrub (no no) (no scrub, no love)
No scrub (no no no no no)
No scrub (no no)
See, if you can't spatially expand my horizon
Then that leaves you in a class with scrubs never risin'
I don't find it surprisin'
If you don't have the g's
To please me and bounce from here to the coast of overseas
So, let me give you somethin' to think about
Inundate your mind with intentions to turn you out
Can't forget the focus on the picture in front of me
You as clear as DVD on digital TV screen
Satisfy my appetite with something spectacular
Check your vernacular
And then I get back to ya
With diamond like precision
Insatiable is what I envision
Can't detect acquisition
From your friend's expedition
Mr. Big Willy if you really wanna know
Ask Chilli, could I be a silly ho
Not really, T-Boz and all my senoritas
Is steppin' on your Filas
Oooh yea yea
I'll never be the same again
I call you up whenever things go wrong
You're always there you are my shoulder to cry on
I can't believe it took me quite so long
To take the forbidden step
Is this something that I might regret
Come on come on
Nothing ventured nothing gained
You are the one
The lonely heart that can't be tamed
Come on come on
I'm hoping that you feel the same
This is something that I can't forget
Chorus:
I thought that we would just be friends
Things will never be the same again
It's just the beginning it's not the end
Things will never be the same again
It's not a secret anymore
Now we've opened up the door
Starting to knight him from the one
We'll never, never be the same again
Never be the same again
Now I know that we were close before
I'm glad I realized I need you so much more
And that I don't care what everyone will say
It's about you and me and we'll never be the same again
Chorus
Uh check it
Night and day
Like beach sand to red clay
The us to uk
Nyc to la
From sidewalks to highways
See it'll never be the same
What I'm sayin'
My mindframe never changed
'til you came and rearranged
But sometimes it seems
Completely forbidden
To discover those feelings
That we kept so well hidden
When there's no competition
And you render my condition though improbable
It's not impossible
For a love that can be unstoppable to work
Are fine lines between fate and destiny
Do you believe in the things that were just meant to be
When you tell me the stories of your quest for me
Picturesque is the picture you paint effortlessly
And as our energies mix and begin to multiply
Everyday situations they start to simplify
So things will never be the same between you and i
We intertwine our life wishes and now we unify
Chorus
Come on come on
Things will never be the same again
You are the one
Never be the same again
It's not a secret anymore
We'll never be the same again
It's not a secret anymore
Never be the same again
Never be the same again
Oh oh yea
Never be the same again
Never be the same again
Uh huh
Now I lay me down to sleep
That was then, but this is now
I pray the lord my soul to keep
I let you slip away somehow
If I should die before I wake
If I should die my pain shall stay
I pray the lord my soul to take
I made you what you are today
Now as I look at myself I'm seein' someone familiar
Starin' back at me through every deep crack that's in my mirror
And as I think to myself
I'm hearin somebody else scream at me (shhh....)
I no longer hear from
Could it be the unknown
Sneaking into my zone
Off we roam
My spirituals is not alone
I'm visualizing this invisible clone
It's my own and it's own
Rest assured it's my dome
Maybe I need to go to bed
Could have sworn I just heard that voice up in my head
Nots while I raps
When it hits me (ha ha ha ha....)
But now it's laughin at me
Yo what the hell is happenin'
Please somebody slap me
No way not another physical display
Somethin' must got me backin' off from way back in tha day
But what can it be
I can't recall the memories so if I may ask
I just seen you yesterday
It's my fuckin' past
I just seen you yesterday
It's my fuckin' past
I just seen you yesterday
It's my fuckin' past
I just seen you yesterday
It's my fuckin' past
I just seen you yesterday
It's my fuckin' past
I just seen you yesterday
It's my fuckin' past
I just seen you yesterday
It's my fuckin' past
I just seen you yesterday
By any means was all it ever seemed to be
This reminiscin' with my past has got me
Caught up in a daydream
Stay in bed with niggas who can pay tha rent
Spending my green on panty hose and tight jeans
I used to be so amused
Cause the tools that I used to break rules
Only seemed to confuse as to whose bein' abused
Place yourself in my shoes
My blessed look of innocence was never refused
Now that I choose to abide
Hello left eye
And put my past to the side
I don't guess i
And kill a piece of my pride
Need to introduce myself
You already said hi
Oh so your the match that lights my fuse
Amuse
Huh, I thought I left you on on that cruise
You lose it
Your man took my place when it threw me in your face
So we drank up all the booze
Sing the blues
And yo we end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news
Sing the blues
I said we end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news
Sing the blues
And yo we end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news
Sing the blues
We end up on the news

Gotta get away from the past
If I make it I just might last
Gotta get away from the past
Trynna escape it but it's movin' too fast
Gotta get away from the past
If I make it I just might last
Gotta get away from the past
Trynna escape it but it's movin' too fast.
We was walkin' before most babies could crawl
Yes yes y'all
Above all one foot tall
Ain't no way I'm takin' a down fall
I'm restructurin' walls
Interruptin' your calls
And goin' straight to the source
With this nut in my balls
Every time the blind lead the blind
Another one of my kind's outta sight and outta mind
I'm comin' through the press
With this sense you can't mess
I'm sittin' in your dreams
Go ahead take a rest
I'm poppin off your nigga's chest
Should I be in distress?
I'm niggas poppin' on the scene
And they can get these
That's my bitch
I'm his bitch
What the hell do they know?
Is that so?
This same day case scenario
And I could care less
About your people and their relentlessness
Towards the eye
Say goodbye
And tell his moms to stop cryin'
Go tell his moms to stop cryin'
His moms to stop cryin'
Go tell his moms to stop cryin'
My secret enemy
You ain't no friend to me
My secret enemy
You ain't no friend to me
My secret enemy
You ain't no friend to me
My secret enemy
Reporter:
I don't watch TV
'cause I can't stand the news
It's always bad news
It's like havin' a fortune
And now you ain't got a dime
It's all bad news
Talk shows show us how sick some people can be
But I don't let that bother me
I keep my eyes to the sky
And God in my life
So it don't bother me
Chorus:
It's alright
It's alright
Lets party tonight
We're gonna have a real good time
Lets just party on
Till the break of dawn
We're gonna have a good time
'cause it's alright
I can't lose my mind
'cause if I do
Party over oops out of time
Thoughts of war
Hangin' in my mind
Party over oops out of time
We'll see the day
Races are broken
Talk of war no more
Graduation rates so high
Nobody's a fool
Now that's good news
Chorus
Wanna dance with a cutie
In the pale moonlight
It's my duty
Check two fresh and fruity
Sweet like candy ass
Make a pass for the booty
I fantasize interludes
When I'm in the mood
See me in the nude
No time to rewind
When the bass line rides for two
Feel me in the groove
I rock on and on till the break of dawn
Feet don't stop me now come and sing along
As I get distracted with a two step
Pop that foot in hard
Time to break a sweat
Let it play Mr. DJ
Stimulatin' on the floor
Till I can't dance no more
Gotta react
If the club is packed
Where the party's at
It's Left Eye at the back door (back door)
Chorus
Chorus
It's alright
Oh oh oh
'cause it's alright
Alright
'cause it's alright
I feel as if I need love,
I need it right away,
I feel as if i need love so please don't take all day.
(repet)
vese 1
I need someone to care
and always be there
I need someone to hold me ,
hello boy are you there? (yeah baby I'm here.)
so please can you stand by me and ride all night ,
cause right now I feel a little lonley (baby you know I love you)
Damn girly look pretty fly in them jeans
Uh no girly look very wrong nasty cooty cutter
She needa case a ho remover
Ho remaover
Justa sprinkle a day watch your ho fade away
Has your ho been sprinkled to day
I had some problems
That no one could seem to solve them
But you had the answer
You told me to take a chance
And learn the ways of love my baby
And all that it has to offer
In time you will see that love won't let you down
Ohh, all my love baby
Hey baby it ain't gon' ever change
Between you and your boo
Put a hold on me ever since I held you
What compelled you to be my man
Besides passion and lust
You ran up on a real boo with understanding and trust
Ain't no comparison you leave all the rest behind
You blow my mind undercover
When you workin' my shine
You laid pipe unlike any other plumber
Took me shoppin' all day and at night, you kept it comin'
Made dinner collard greens, candied yams, and steak
Showed me the game how to import birds and chop weight
Caught a case cuz your boy ran his mouth too much.
And it's a disgrace how the pain felt to miss your touch
But as the days keep passin' keep it laughin' with stacks of letters
Hit you so you don't forget us
When you'd rather not be livin in the cella
Hella playa-haters want your occupation
But they can keep pacin' cuz
I'm gonna be waitin' on my baby
Chorus:
And all this love is waiting for you
My baby, sweet darlin'
And all this love is waiting for you
Don't worry about a thing just stay down
As long as you can hang I'm-a be around
Ran into your boy had heard he'd spread the word
That you was soft braggin' he collecting your cheese
And pissing me off
The first thought of committing a felony never left
I missed the big breaths you took when we waa puffin' the L
Just the little things you do with the bigger ones
I saw better SL 500's colorful Gucci sweaters and leathers
Diamond letters I feel ya boo cuz I saved the sugar for you
Keep the business runnin' droppin' off keys in Cancun
Cash rules and you remain to be the king of my throne
Position takin' flippin' calendar pages till you get home
Wanna blast your boy for snatchin' up my happiness
But I regret what'll happen to this dollar foundation
If I'm incarcerated too you can make it through
Rebel on the jealous who tell us the opposite of that
Forever you and Brat
I tried to take the blame but you preferred to handle my fame
So I'm waitin' with open arms to rekindle the flame
Can't believe
Can't believe how the world has changed
I'm feelin' good when I've been reachin' for my dreams
I'm missin'
Seems like the whole world's smilin'
I'm burnin' up
It's time to turn it up
Get in the middle and stir it up
Give it to me while it's HOT (hot hot hot)
Step up your game
Cause I'm too crunk to be tamed
Now that you've sparked the flame
Give it to me while it's HOT
I know that you like it when
I go in and out again
Can't catch my breath
As sweat rolls down my face
I'm lookin' down at you
How you do the thing you do
And I scratch your neck
And my eyes roll back for you (ah)
Oh baby
I'm burnin' up
It's time to turn it up
Get in the middle and stir it up
Give it to me while it's HOT (hot hot hot)
Step up your game
Cause I'm too crunk to be tamed
Now that you've sparked the flame
Give it to me while it's HOT
Don't answer the telephone
Shut the windows
Lock all the doors
Need no interruptions now
Something's 'bout to be goin' down
I want you to focus on
Our body temperature I'm burnin' up
I want you to give me all your love
Till I can't take it no more
I'm burnin' up
It's time to turn it up
Get in the middle and stir it up
Give it to me while it's HOT (hot hot hot)
Step up your game
Cause I'm too crunk to be tamed
Now that you've sparked the flame
Must (must)
We play these games (play these games)
Tell me that you want me more
And I will turn the notches up on high
Lovin' you can't deny
Baby I got that fire
I got (oooh oooh)
Give it to me while it's HOT
Not furious just curious
She saw himself fit
Who better than a boy
The girl grew up with
How 'bout the walks in the park
On the phone all night
Dreams like that she saw in plain sight
To his friends he's urgin'
The simple fact she's a virgin
To her he'll be urgin'
Sexually lets merge
As you can see
There's two different dreams
Her thoughts are so pure
His low as the floor
I'm burnin' up
It's time to turn it up
Get in the middle and stir it up
Give it to me while it's HOT (hot hot hot)
Step up your game
Cause I'm too crunk to be tamed
Now that you've sparked the flame
Give it to me while it's HOT
I'm burnin' up
It's time to turn it up
Get in the middle and stir it up
Give it to me while it's HOT (hot hot hot)
Step up your game
Cause I'm too crunk to be tamed
Now that you've sparked the flame
Give it to me while it's HOT
I'm burnin' up
It's time to turn it up
Get in the middle and stir it up
Give it to me while it's HOT (hot hot hot)
Step up your game
Cause I'm too crunk to be tamed
Now that you've sparked the flame
Excuse me mr. officer
You think we're bad, huh?
You wanna clean up the streets, huh?
Well you better put society in handcuffs
Ha ha, you got a hard job
Music by bernstein
Lyrics by sondheim
I'm talkin' 'bout west side story
It's before my time
Police sweat me like the sharks & the jets
Because I do what I does
So they wanna hit me
If you let me
I'll explain the game
Clear my name
And show you ain't a damn thing changed
So don't criticize the way that I ball hey
This ain't broadway
We learned it the hard way
Dear kindly sergeant krupke
You gotta understand
It's just our bringin' upke
That gets us out of hand
Our mothers all are junkies
Our fathers all are drunks
Golly moses, naturally we're punks
Gee, officer krupke
We're very upset
We never had the love
That every child oughta get
We ain't no deliquents
We're misunderstood
Deep down inside us there is good
There is good!
There is good, there is good
There is untapped good
Like inside, the worst of us is good
You see, officer krupkee
You gotta have some compassion
You know, you always harrassin' me
But what you don't understand is
I come from a broken home
My momma don't care about me
My daddy don't care about me
And you always gettin' on my case
It ain't me homeboy
It's society
Dear kindly judge, your honour
My parents treat me rough
With all their marijuana
They won't give me a puff
They didn't wanna have me
But somehow I was had
Leapin' lizards, that's why I'm so bad
Right! officer krupke
You're really a square
This boy don't need a judge
He needs an analyst's care
It's just his neurosis
That oughta be curbed
He's psychologically disturbed
He's disturbed!
We're disturbed, we're disturbed
We're the most disturbed
Like we're psychologically disturbed
We out of our minds you know what I'm sayin'
Yeah, because we got problems
Deep down inside
I ain't got no analystic junk heap
And sit down on the couch
Then find out why I'm disturbed
I know why I'm disturbed
And you know what
I don't care
'cause it's just like that
And that's just how it is
You know what I'm sayin'
That's the way it is
Crazy
Father is a bastard
My mom's an s-o-b
My grandpa's always plastered
My gramma pushes tea
My sister wears a moustache
My brother wears a dress
Goodness gracious, that's why I'm a mess
Officer krupkee you're really a slob
This boy don't need a doctor
Just a good honest job
Society played him a terrible trick
And socialogically he's sick
We are sick!
We are sick, we are sick
We are sick sick sick
Like we're sociologically sick
In other words
This is what happens when cousins marry
We are pendejo heads, inbred
Hey we're like chicano forrest gump's
Dear kindly social worker
They say go earn a buck
Like be a soda jerker
Which means like be a schmuck
It's not I'm antisocial
I'm only antiwork
Glory osky, now that's why I'm a jerk
Officer krupkee ya done it again
This boy don't need a doc
He needs a year in the pen
It ain't just a question of misunderstood
Deep down inside, he ain't no damn good
I'm no good!
We're no good, we're no good
We're no earthly good
Like the best of us is no damn good
The trouble is he's crazy
The trouble is he drinks
The problem is he's lazy
The trouble is he stinks
The trouble is he's growin'
The trouble is he's grown
Krupkee we've got troubles of our own
Gee, officer krupkee
We're down on our knees
'cause no one wants a fella
With a social disease
Gee, officer krupkee
What are we to do
Gee, officer krupkee
Now this is time for free your mind and your soul
Yo our official story has never been told
Ladies you got to demand what you want
And what we want is respect, right
Yo listen up on the track here
'cause you'll also have to deal with it right
Freedom every time for the sisters
Check this watch this
A here we go now
Listen if I'm poompa moo
I'll be the ruler like slick rick
Get with this quick witted
Adidas-wearing chick
Poppa got a brand new bag
Momma got a brand new jag
A gold tag I ain't no old hag
I represent not only in the kitchen
And the bedroom room
But also in the board room
So give me more room
Deny my opportunity
You in jeopardy
Yo-yo set me free
Don't hinder me
Let me be
My fightin' for freedom
I got the heat in case you need 'em
I'm a straight soldier
Ain't nobody told you
Hold up on them lies
I know your games and your plans
Do whatever you can to oppress demand
But when it's time to drop the bomb
Bring the funk and it's on
You say you never met a sister so strong
You're wrong now how can we be free
It takes you and it takes me
To blend together in harmony
And peace and love and all of the above
Sisters coming together representing one love
No disrespect but we gotta get it together
No matter what's the weather
Sisters gotta stick together
If sisters be stronger
Don't let 'em steer you wrong
Hold on 'cause sisters got it going on
Yeah
Chorus:
Let's free your mind and your soul
Don't let no guys go and take control
Because you're young and a you play the role
And our official story has never been told
Whoever said these are the things that you can do
And the things you ain't supposed to
So am I further when I think I'm getting closer
That's when I tend to think of rosa how was it
Took a seat to make a stand
But now in standing we've gotten more demanding
They never thought in planning
That a wish for us to sit would be a dose of
This fucking rollercoaster
Whether tradition or religion
Why you question my decision
Why you spend up all your time trying to
Get into my mind
Why everybody and they mama
Gots to add to all my drama mad drama
Hell if i'ma keep my dominating feministic hell
Creating crazysexycool black ass
In the palms of your player hater's stands
My only chance of being free is to fly within me
And it's illegal to kill a fucking eagle
A bird is never more important than my people
I guess we didn't need him so I took away his freedom
Chorus
My spiritual awareness leads me to believe
That you doubt in the sisters
That come with the peace we've been together
Since God created all of thee
African daughters celebration is in order
Pop the cork and give the champagne to the stork
That brought the lyte to my momma in new york
African I come again and again
You kick me down I get back up
I'm coming back in multiples of ten
You know where I come from
Slung from the belly of the beast
Used to speak african tongue
So I showed her next one bolder
Slung the devil over my shoulder
I'm getting over 'cause I'm bolder than the next
I'm enlightened 'cause I speak the real truth from the text
Who's next to flex with this s-i-s-t-e-r
The sun the moon the crest and the star
Wanna see how open you are
Chorus
Come and take a walk with me
Closer walk with thee
See what only I can see
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen
So it's back to the womb of everlasting life
And truth let the heaven of a
Sister embrace you and praise them other gods
Come into the light let it shine blackness is fine
The blackness of your skin
The blackness of your mind
I am who I am and that's who I be
And I don't give a damn if your eyes can't see
If you can't see what I can see
That you're blind baby bop
I'm a woman who's black so back up back up
'cause it's on i'ma tell you strong what's wrong
With the world that we're living on
It ain't who you know it ain't what you drive
It's about how you feel about yourself
On the inside when your self-esteem is low
And they call you a ho then they think you's a ho
But that ain't what the lord God made you to be
I need you to see you're black and you're free
Say what say what (uh uh)
2003
It don't get better then this (what)

I know I'm kinda strange, to you sometimes
Don't always say, what's on my mind
You know that I've been hurt, by some guy
But I don't wanna mess up this time
And I really really really care
And I really really really want you
And I think I'm kinda scared
Cos I don't want to lose you
If you really really really care
Then maybe you can hang through
I hope you understand
It's nothing to you
My heart's at a low
I'm so much to manage
I think you should know that
I've been damaged
I'm falling in love
There's one disadvantage
I think you should know that I've been damaged
I might look through your stuff, for what I don't wanna find
Or I might just set you up, to see if you're all mine
I'm a little paranoid, from what I've been through
Don't know what you got yourself into
And I really really really care (And I care about you so much)
And I really really really want you (I really do want you)
And I think I'm kinda scared (But I'm scared with every touch)
Cos I don't want to lose you (Cos I don't want to lose you)
If you really really really care (If you care for me like you say)
Then maybe you can hang through (Then maybe you can hang through)
I hope you understand (I hope you understand)
It's nothing to you (It's nothing to you, you)
My heart's at a low (low)
I'm so much to manage
I think you should know that (I think you should know)
I've been damaged
I'm falling in love (I'm falling in love)
There's one disadvantage
I think you should know that I've been damaged (I think you should know that)
My heart's at a low
I'm so much to manage (I'm so much to manage)
I think you should know that (I think you should know that)
I've been damaged (I've been damaged)
I'm falling in love (I love you so)
There's one disadvantage (I love you so)
I think you should know that I've been damaged
And I really really really want you
And I think I'm kinda scared
Cos I don't want to lose you
If you really really really care
Then maybe you can hang through
I hope you understand
It's nothing to you (It's nothing to you)
My heart's at a low
I'm so much to manage
I think you should know that (Ooh I think you should know I've been damaged)
I've been damaged (I've been damaged baby)
I'm falling in love (Falling in love with you baby, yeah)
There's one disadvantage
I think you should know that I've been damaged
My heart's at a low
I'm so much to manage
I think you should know that
I've been damaged
I'm falling in love
There's one disadvantage
All the children comin' into the light....
There will be....
Chorus:
Rock-a-bye baby
From the rooftop
When the guns blow
Your cradle gets rocked
When the earth quakes
And the sky start to fall
Down will come emcees
Fake shit and all
Rooftoppin' be the shell shot
The bomb drops
Aftershock blow your mother clock
To smitherines
Time stops
Flying guillotine
Comin' for your fly
What you mean you spilled the beans, huh?
Blacked out and thought I seen 'pac
Laced a big glock
What's a bird to a brother with a flock what
They got some nerve
They even try share the turf
On john j
Flap a nigga gay
With the word play
Hot neck shoot you with a gift
It's your birthday
God hatin' ugly in the worst way
Fuck 'em like the earth say
From first day
I surveyed the hassle
Death knockin' at your door
In the big apple
Meth rotton to the core
Shackled in the sound castle
The dungeon with vermin
In the form of emcees
Determined to step foot on god's soil
Not knowin' that these egg-heads
Come hard boiled
And heavy handed
The aliens have just landed
Any any way
Overthrow these niggas planet
Independence day
Felons get split melons
Homicide
Bug nigga's get the bug repellant
Insecticide
Johnny 5 take it worldwide
As long as I pledge allegiance
To the dark side
I never die
Who you know with a flow like this
Bring 'em in
What clan you know blow like this
Bring 'em in
Take dat nigga
There will be....
The sound of gun bursts
Put the foul in the turf
(foul in the turf)
You can't think planet from the my control theory
(my control theory)
Murder in the first bring 'em back down to earth
(back down to earth)
Ya'll niggas don't hear me prepare for the worst
(prepare for the worst)
Times gon' change
Nuttin' will remain the same
Million dollar broke niggas
Still fucked up in the game
Make me wanna choke niggas
Shittin' on my name
Tuck ya chain when I approach
Nigga go against the grain now
Can you stand the rain now
Die hard fan
Call me john john mcclain now
Snake verse the crane style
Death to the enemy
Wu brother number one
The centipede
Troublesome
Send 'em all to kingdom come
Sun still shine one
Time for your crooked mind
Drunk off of cheap wine
Son I'm in the street crime
Every word every line
Got juice very fine
Turn me loose on man kind
Detonate the land mine
Funk gets my go now
I'll never sell, never sold
Live by the code now
Never tell, never told
Darts I throw
Like clyde with the finger roll
Clutch shots and whatnot
This is where the buck stops
Still can't eat
And y'all still can't sleep
I elect myself as presidential emcee
Wu tang killa bee
The bee hive facility
In love with the blunt smoke
Even though it's killin' me
Bad vibes fillin' me with
Thoughts of conspiracy
Whitewater scandals
With bill clinton 'n hillary
Too hot to handle
Too well put together to dismantle
Fucker
You heard
Fucker...
There will be....
Excuse me as I kiss the sky
Catch me when I fall son
I'm too young to die
Me and lefty
That be the eye
Come touch me
If you don't know me
You'll never know me
Booster brady
En espanol
Me legs shocks on you
Man if you test me....
Fire upon your head
I say fire upon your chest
Man if you test I say
You feel exempt
Anybody want to contest me
As you reach for me
Check
Cocky.....
Check
Smarty boy contest me
Have to reach for me....
Chorus
A-yo
I got three-hundred and sixty
Degrees of self
That's mind, body, and spirit
120 degrees of peace
We gon' break it down into simple terms
That's 9 nigga 9
Highest level of change
Too many niggas sittin' on they ass
Waitin' for shit to just happen
Shit don't just happen
Don't fuck around and miss the boat
If you take away the negative
Make room for the positive
That's addin' and subtractin'
On the real
Niggas better learn they math
'cause if my calculations serve me correct
I'm gonna fuck around and have all this shit
I'm on yo ass nigga
Yea sleepy brown
What's here...
What's here...
Check it out (unh)
If I were u and u were me
Would u like what you see (ha, yea)
And tell me why u spread them lies
About my sexuality lil' old me
Just because u in my face
Doesn't mean u have to erase
What's inside of me oh can't u see
I don't pay it no mind
I'm just puttin' in my time
Until he sets me free (sets me free)
And then u'll see (you think you'll see)
Chorus:
Ain't nothin' but changes
Ain't nothin' but changes
Ain't nothin' but changes
Ain't nothin' but changes
And now it seems from everything
Someone has put a hold on me (umph, damn)
But I just try to keep my pride
Even though sometimes I cry (oh I cry)
But it seems u do me wrong
You never miss your well until your water is gone (it's all gone)
But I don't pay it no mind
I'm just puttin' in my time
Until he sets me free and then u'll see
Chorus
Yeah, sleepy brown, society of soul
Kickin' it with tlc
On that funk
That real
Y'all don't know nothin' about that
Y'all don't know nothin' about that (yeah, umph)
Unhh....ha ha...
This one goes out to all the big willies...
Big will the high roller
Strolling through with an entourage
Hard to camouflage when you livin' this large
I be smooth like debarge with a five car garage
Out for the night with my squad and we be flossin' down
The fifteen my whole aura gleamin'
Who dat kid in the green v
Envy brother scheamin'
I ain't thinkin' bout them racing chicks in the pink bm
With my speakers tweakin' freakin' off this weekend in
Las vegas boss players all across the board move makers and
Shakers money can't break us but the places it can take us
Big will in the limelight rhyme tight and we gon' have some fun tonight
Chorus:
Now how we do it (you know it's big willie style baby)
How we doin' it (you know it's big willie style)
Now how we do it (you know it's big willie style baby)
How we doin' it ( you know it's big willie style)
I'm in a five star casino shuttin' crap tables down (boom)
Non bettin' willie watchers standin' around
Strictly millionaire status you can feel the eyes lookin' at us
How bad they wanna be us (parlay)
Charlie mack got my back with his eyes on my stack
Brothers don't know how to act when you drive a four-five black
People stop and stare havin' drinks at the bar a round
For everybody with these big willie cards from civilians to stars
They wanna know who we are it's me big will, nas escobar, j.l.
Omar carry money bags collect the chips then we all quick the swift exit
Chorus
It's left eye with a tight crew representin' like it's ladies night
Comin' right through don't be spiteful plus an eyeful
Sportin' hot-pink rocks in a link in a drop with a mink
Like my shit don't stink
Got you in the palm with a bomb like sadam
Blowing up spots then runnin' off with the pots
Left eye ready for action the main attraction
I'm in the fast-lane passing breakin' you down like fractions
While we be rappin' about things that really happen
Big willie style philly style let's make it platinum
With mademouselle from gazels to versace
With a sweet smell this female leadin' the posse got jokes like cosby
In the lots where the cars be with no apologies it's left eye
Big will let the champagne spill is it a man's thing for real
Can us girls roll wit y'all what the deal
Chorus
Well now it's lookin' like a car show convoys and whips
On the strip pullin' up in the six makin' brothers sick for real
Big will household name entertainer gold handle cane and matchin'
Gators swervin' lane in pole position rolling deep like a co-malition
In soul position and can rock a whole convention
Movie screens to the club scene my whole crew lookin' clean
Shine with a diamond gleam step above where the players be
Don't hate me one is where they rate me lately you could find me
Behind the door marked v.i.p.eating grapes under the a.c.
Big willie style is how we do it
Chorus
Chorus
Ringing ringing of my phone,
But i don't wanna pick it up.
I don't want to pick it up 'cause i already know who it's
Gonna be.
It's gonna be you.
You just don't seem to geddit!
I don't want you, don't need you and can't have you.
CHORUS #1
Geddit!
You better understand you're buggin' me.
Geddit!
You better understand i don't like you.
Geddit!
You better understand i don't need you.
Geddit!
'cause you're buggin' buggin'! Ringin' ringin' on my phone.
Knock on my door, Not Again?
It just doesn't seem to click,
Does it!
I can't stand you around, let alone make you count
So i think yo better just leave me alone.
Shoo, dog! Shoo, scrub!
Idon't want you!!
CHORUS #2
Geddit!
You'd better understand you're buggin' me.
Geddit!
You better understand i don't like you.
Geddit!
Tou better understand i don't need you.
Geddit!

Can't stand you!!
CHORUS #1&2
Geddit!
You're buggin' me.
Geddit!
I don't like you.
Geddit!
I don't need you.
Ringin' ringin' on my phone,
Somethin' you wanna know
Ask me boy
I'll tell you so
Don't you talk to the world
You can talk to me baby
Somethin' you wanna know
Yo Left Eye
I can't believe he fell for that rumor
All he had to do was come ask you
Sittin' all alone can't think of nothin' better to do
So yo I keeps callin' you
Each discussion's a little bit colder
Seems to me you givin' two of those shoulders
Whatever it is and if it's nothin'
I wish that you would tell me somethin'
Got me thinkin' I'm losin' you
Yo so what am I suppose to do
Somethin' you wanna know
Ask me boy
I'll tell you so
Don't you talk to the world
You can talk to me baby
Somethin' you wanna know
Ask me boy
I'll tell you so
You can talk to your girl
I won't lie to you baby
Scratchin' up the phone goin' crazy
You think it' atin't suppose to phase me
Yellin' at you for even startin' to belive
In any kind of that crap street yap you been receivin'
And what's so unfair
You been doggin' me out about matters unclear
You can't solve a problem it it's trapped inside your mind
It's a conversation blind
You know you shouldn't fall for everything that they tell you
Unless you get it straight from the horse's mouth (ah)
You know that everything they tell you boy is just hearsay
You gotta be careful when the rumor's out
True enough now you know if I were to pick up
A piece of that he say she say stuff
Think about it
I would doubt it as to callin' a bluff
But unlike you I wouldn't breaka da rules
By jumpin' into concluse
I'd eat a steak and potato while thinkin' it over later
Leave a tip two quarters and a condom for the waiter
What to do
Now's the time I decided to bring it on back to you
So we can talk it through and through
Becasue it ain't nothin' better than talkin' to me
When you wanna know somethin'
Than havin' to get a piece of info from who knows
I'm gettin' fed up cause yo cuz
Words become a quote or somethin' better like a story
It's far from okey doke close to fiction
Half is true but then the other is a conviction
So I'm blamed with an infliction
From which others have created
Then have socially debated
So yo don't you know that the story's been inflated
You know you shouldn't fall for everything that they tell you

Hi Mom
That is oooh on the TLC tip
Saw you two the other day
And I must say that she looks great
You all make the cutest two
I guess I should be glad for you
But the thought of you just makes me sick
It's been two weeks and that's too quick
I can't say that I'm doin' fine
Cuz I'm bout to lose my mind
And I don't know what I'll do so
Chorus
Real sad for me too bad for you
That I'm so lonely and confused
I've gotta take it out on you
Cuz you left me for some chick
Now I'm lovesick baby
Saw myself on Ricki Lake
Overweight and full of hate
Some asshole left me in distress
I used to look down on all that mess
Seems like everything just changed
Once I gave my love to you you went away
Since you are the one to blame
You better figure out how to get it back baby
Chorus
Before I met you I didn't think
A man could ever do a thing
To take away my independence baby
Before I met you I was strange
Now I'm bout to go insane
So you better think about it baby
Chorus x 2
Saw you two the other day
And I would say that she looks great
You all make the cutest two
I guess I should be glad for you
The thought of you just makes me sick
It's been two weeks and that's too quick
I can't say that I'm doin' fine
Cuz I'm bout to lose my mind
And I don't know what I'll do so
You're sad for me too bad for you
That I'm so lonely and confused
I've gotta take it out on you
Cuz you left me for some chick
Now I'm lovesick baby
Saw myself on Rikki Lake
Overweight and full of hate
Some asshole left me in distress
I used to look down on all that mess
Seems like everything just changed
Once I gave my love to you you went away
Since you are the one to blame
You better figure out how to get it back baby
Before I met you I didn't think
That you'd ever do a thing
To take away my independence baby
Before I met you I was straight
Now I'm bout to go insane

So who you savin' all that love for
Open up your mind explore, we'll make it hard core
You can be the candy man
I'll be your candy store
Give you just a little more than what you bargained for
And if you ask me for some guidance
It's not a minus
I'll break it down to a science, kitchen appliance
To what extent can you measure the true value of my 100 percent
When I'm unpassionate to you, who thinks dollars and cents
I must confess I Need That
Don't wake me up if I'm dreamin'
Because I'll believe in that
Repeat 2
Repeat 2

The 22nd of loneliness and we've
Been through so many thangs
I love my man with all honesty
But I know he's cheatin' on me

Tells me is lies to keep me near

Said nobody is supposed to know
So I creep, yeah
'Cause he doesn't know what I do
And no attention goes to show
Oh, so I creep
The 23rd of loneliness
And we don't talk like we used to do
Now it seems pretty, strange but I'm not buggin'
'Cause I still feel, the same yeah, yeah

Till the day he pushes me away, never go astray
If he knew the things I did he couldn't handle it

[Intro]
This goes out to forever
Through sunshine or the rainiest weather
And no matter what it will always be us together
[Verse 1]
I said if I got nothing else
I got memories of what we felt
I sit alone laughing to myself
Sometimes, about it
Those silly reasons we would fight
No matter who was wrong or right
We were always there
Sharing this love, sharing this life
[Pre-Chorus]
Cause we knew, said we always knew
No matter what would've come
That we were
Meant to be
[Chorus]
And it ain't going to be easy
And no matter what baby we're meant to be
And we ain't never [?]
We were always meant to be
Meant to be
[Verse 2]
And though it will get dark sometimes we know
Everyone now and then it's got to rain
But when that rain starts to pound
All you gotta do is turn around
And you'll find me right there
Holding you up, holding you down
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
From the moment we met
Meant to be
Through the sorrow, through the stress
Meant to be through life and through death
Hey we've built a love that nothing can test
Meant to be
[Chorus x3]
[Outro]
Always
Meant to be
Yeah
Yo, get, get up on the TLC tip
Get, get up on the TLC tip
Hey now
You know how to pull my chain
And I believe every word you say

But now you're gone and your heart got hurt
Well you thought I belong to you
But you were wrong so now what ya gon' do

Yo I done it before and I can do it again

Don't come bangin' on my door
Now you're gone I don't want you anymore
There's no reason for you to come around
So just step off so I don't have to break it down

You think you're gonna change my mind somehow
You cheated me now I'm cheatin' back

You know the rest

Yep, yep (hey) get up on the TLC tip

And greedy Petey now is needy cause not one was all that he left her
Oooooooh I'm sayin' it once and not twice
Givin' advice to be nice before you fall through the ice
Cause lately you been slippin' up a lot
Not even givin' half o' what you got
But it's about that time you gave a quarter for a dime
Shovel up and start diggin' to see what you can find
That security deposit
So like it or leave it but until I receive it

You best belive it

A lonely mother gazing out of the window
Staring at her son that she just can't touch
If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
'Cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble
So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how
Another body layin' cold in the gutter
Listen to me
Don?t go chasing waterfalls, please stick to the rivers
And the lakes that you?re used to
I know that you?re gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast
Little precious has a natural obsession for temptation
But he just can't see
She gives him loving that his body can't handle
But all he can say is, "Baby is good to me"
One day he goes and take a glimpse in the mirror
But he doesn?t recognize his own face
His health is fading and he doesn?t know why
3 letters took him to his final resting place
Y'all, don?t you hear me?
Don?t go chasing waterfalls, please stick to the rivers
And the lakes that you?re used to
I know that you?re gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast
Y'all, don?t you hear me?
Don?t go chasing waterfalls, please stick to the rivers
And the lakes that you?re used to
I know that you?re gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast
Come on
I seen a rainbow yesterday but too many storms have come and gone
Leaving a trace of not one God giving ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of gray?
I pray, all ten fade away, seldom praise him for the seven days
And like his promise is true
Only my faith can undo the many chances I blew to bring my life to anew
Clear and blue and unconditional skies
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries, my only bleeding hope
Is for the folk who can't cope with such an endurin? pain
That it keeps them in the pourin' rain
Who's to blame for tootin? caine into your own vein
What a shame, you shoot and aim for someone else?s blame
You claim the insane for this day
And time for falling prey to crime
I say the system's got you victim to your own mind
Dreams are hopeless aspirations in hopes of coming true
Believe in yourself
The rest is up to me and you
Don?t go chasing waterfalls, please stick to the rivers
And the lakes that you?re used to
I know that you?re gonna have it your way or nothing at all
U in me feels twice as nice
And everything we do is right
It's nasty love but that's all right with me
Once a month is not enough
I think about it every week
There's other guys
But that's not U in me
I can't understand why it feels so good
I never felt this way before
I want U more and more each day
Even if there's someone else
I might as well take care of myself
I'm never satisfied like U in me
You're so damn special baby yeah
I could have anybody but that's not U in me
You're so damn special
Don't wanna give mine up cause I like U in me
U in me became unreal
I never hesitate to see
I need it now and that's how it should be
U in me was somethin' else
Started messin' with my mind
Cuz there will never be me in U (hey hey)
I could have anybody but that's not U in me
So damn special yeah
Don't wanna give mine up cause I like U in me
You're so damn special, U know, U know, U know baby
I could have anybody but that's not U in me
So damn special
Can't understand the way I feel
Don't wanna give mine up cause I like U in me
You're so damn special baby
I could have anybody but that's not U in me
So damn special hey hey hey yeah
Don't wanna give mine up cause I like U in me
So damn special hey oh oh
I could have anybody but that's not U in me
So damn special hey yeah hey yeah
Don't wanna give mine up cause I like U in me
So damn special baby
So damn special
I could have anybody but that's not U in me
So damn special baby hey
I used to walk around like
Nothing could happen to me
Life is a gamble so I
Should live life more carefully
But all I know is that I
Control my own destiny
I used to look at others
Instead of me blaming me
Don't ask yourself why
Just look to the sky
Believe that soon you'll see the other side
I know
That through all the struggle
There's a bright road
At the end of the tunnel
Now you should know
Whatever your dilemma may be
You'll learn
Life is worth it
Watch the tables turn
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Whenever you feel troubled
With problems coming your way
Don't ever get discouraged
There's always a better day
We all don't know the answers
Believe and trust when I say
That havin' faith is always
The way to make things okay
That's right
Alright
You've had your ups and downs but
It happened for a reason
Cause after April showers
There will come a change of season
So please don't give up now cuz
The sun's shinin' through the clouds
It's gonna be alright
I know
Watch the tables turn
(Watch the tables turn)
Watch the tables turn
(Watch the tables turn)
Watch the tables turn
(Watch the tables turn)
Watch the tables turn
This is how is should be done
This is how it should be done comin' out of the black shade
Fightin' to lighten a path made back
Let's go way back to the beginnin'
That's when an idea took part from the start
Listen to another Marley beat I'm impatient
I gotta leave my seat for motivation
Pump the bass what's next
Kckin' the steps me and the mirror's havin' wreck
So hard that I cracked my neck
And I'm poppin sweat now I'm soakin' wet
But I feeeel it
Grab the beat cause I must
Defeat it's a funky groove
So I steeeel it
To improve what could
Soon be the Left Eye move
Pin it down and snatch a sample to loop it up
And start makin' my own example cause
This is how it should be done
This is how it should be done (yeah, yeah)
This is how it should be done
This is how it should be done
This style is identical to none
This is how it should be done steppin' into a shade a bit lighter
Now is the time to write a rhyme a rhythmic type of memo
Tick-tack it to the track it is now my demo-kay
What's to da where's to go yo I don't know
Who's to see see ya at the local show
Me and Mo takin' a chance and he's dancin'
Round and round the deck as I flow
But what an awkward situation
Cause there's not much crowd participation
For checkin' me out I'm too new it
Gots to be somethin' else another way to do it
So I sit back and think for a minute
Which city needs a little more talent in it
Maybe A.T.L. is the place packed up left Philly gotta hit LaFace
This is how it should be done (hey)
This style is identical to none
This is how it should be done and I'm comin' through
Grippin' the mic spittin' out what's after verse 2
And ready to rock the spot cause I'm on it
They wanna see what I got
Givin' it all and makin' it seem so simple to be myself
Along wit' doin' what I do
Cool they want me not knowin' I'm soon to be the "L" of TLC
Word up T.B.O.Z. that's T-Boz
Saucin' it up is Chilli
We three alike all small in height but I'm Left Eye
Cause the eye is right
So now they thinkin' well is we ready enough
Yeah it's time to get busy
The aftermath is the brightest path so far
Yo cause here we are
This is how it should be done
Let's take our time baby
Love last forever
Over and over
We'll love together
Come here next to me
And let me make you high
No mistakes we will make
A long time we will love
Let's take our time baby
Love last forever
Over and over
We'll love together
Kiss me hold me tight
And let's get wet tonight
Happiness is pleasing you
So let me make you cry
Let's take our time baby
Love last forever
Over and over
We'll love together
Slowly deep inside me
Hold me kiss my body
Only you can make me
So easy
Slowly deep inside me
Hold me kiss my body
Only you can make me
So easy
Let's take our time baby
Love last forever
Over and over

And let her know where you've been
Cuz she thinks that
You're so faithful
Boy you're so dumb (dumb)
Ain't goin' down like that no more

Dumb dumb dumb
She thinks you're so faithful
So so dumb so dumb
And she's such a pretty girl
Dumb dumb dumb
How could you be so damn

And one day love will leave your side
And no other will hear your cry
But you had to live your own life
Now nobody likes you
Not even you
Why you gotta be so
Dumb dumb dumb
You've never been faithful
So so dumb so dumb
And you can have those other girls
Dumb dumb dumb
Cuz I'm no longer in your world

Have a go round
I'll let you touch it if you'd
Like to go down
I'll let you go further
If you take the southern route
Don't go too fast
Don't go too slow
You've got to let your body flow
I like 'em attentive
And I like 'em in control
Baby it's yours
All yours
If you want it tonight
I'll give you the red light special
All through the night
Baby it's yours
All yours

Just come through my door
Take off my clothes
And turn on the red light

See it in your eyes
You might as well be honest 'cause the
Body never lies
Tell me your secrets and I'll
I'll tell you mine
I'm fellin' quite sexy
And I want you for tonight
If I move too fast just let me know
'Cause it means you move too slow
I like some excitement
And I like a man that goes
If you want me
Let me know it
I'll make time but
You've got to show it
If you need me
I want to see
But don't mistake me
I don't want you down on your knees
I need someone a real man

Tims untied with saggy pants
Not the kind of guy I would give a chance
But he was kinda packin' under circumstance
6 foot 3 sexy as can be
I saw him through the crowd comin' up to me
He said aren't you that shorty from TLC
He told me 'bout the things he would do to me

Said he owed me one and tonight's the night
Didn't know if he should get another chance
But he was kinda packin' under circumstance
He didn't know that I peeped him out
Picked up on what a quickie is all about
So went to dinner back to the crib
So I could switch it up and show him how it is
Oh wait hold up hold up hold up

How to correlate
With next to vertebrae's glow

Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whooa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa (oww)
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
And I believe it don't affect
Nobody else but me
Ya'll been telling me what to do
Since I was old enough to walk
Old enough to talk
Never let me speak or move
Do my own thang
But now I'm growin' wiser now
Brighter now
A little bit tighter now
Now ya'll can't hold me down
I know you hate to hear
But things have changed in
My life
It's been a while but
Me and my style stuck
Now everybody and they
Momma tryna do it
My life
I've done that been through that
So there ain't nothin
That you can tell me
My life
On a good night if I feel like
Me and my girls hit the club and tell
It's my life
It's my life
And I believe that it don't effect
Nobody else but me me me me
Being sick and tired of folks
Who wanna come around
Claim they gon get down
But all they wanna do is
See me make a wrong move (yeah)
I don't care what you hear in the news
To see who I choose to do the late night creep wit
I'm gonna do just what I wanna do
It's my life
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa

And I believe that it don't effect nobody else but me
Sometimes I might get a little crazy
And sometimes I might seem
Out of hand but I'm sayin
Life's too short for me to let you dictate
What I say and the moves I make
Sick of people tryna tell me what to do
It's my life and I'ma live it like I want to
Check it
Another day another dolla
Is the reality of my mentality
Otherwise don't even botha
You see my father was a wise old man
Always creatin the plan
For me to conquer this land
He said I am what I am
So be the best that I can
And if them others don't like it
Then why should I give a damn (huh)
Maybe so cause when his life wasn't right
My mother picked up them pieces
And continued on with the fight
So now it's plain to me
It ain't no game to me
See mom and dad corrected math
1 and 1 equal 3
4 and 5 I count my sister and brother
Stay alive till we die
And don't you ever be worried
Cuz I'm down with a ride
Through peaks and valleys to Cresent Hills
Tumble down I'll set a new ground for Jack and Jill
Ever wonder what put the thunder deeply in my eyes
Take a look and you'll find a sunshine
You sweet young thang you
Whatever you do Lord knows you do it nice and easy
You keep it nice and long
You sexy thang you
Whatever it is you want from me you know I'll satisfy
Just keep the love at home
You give me pleasure
Unlike any pleasure that I've felt or ever seen
I can't get enough of you in me
You know I treasure
Each and every waking moment that you spend with me
I'm in ecstasy
Let's do it again
'Cause I love to make sweet love to you baby
Let's do it again
I wanna go all night long
You precious thang you
I love what you do when you do
And you do it oh so special
I don't see nothin' wrong
With nothing 'bout you
Whatever it is that makes you feel so very special
A baby please please keep it on
I so desire
Everything about you and I want you to be close to me
As close as close could ever be
Come light the fire
That waits for you and yearns for you that burns inside of me
Take me to ecstasy
Don't stop please don't stop please please don't stop it
(don't you don't you don't you don't you stop it)
Don't stop please don't stop please please don't stop it

And I always dreamed about someone else
Who was so much more than
La la la la la
A good man is so hard to find
Well, actually, a hard man is so good to find
Yo, yeah baby!
I understand you want a tour of what's inside
Be my safety guide before I take you on this ride
Straight into the center
You enter my dimension
No question is protection
Selected in my session
I'm on a quest I will not rest till I break it
But if it's naked
I'll take it with the batteries and bake it
Cuz I gotta get mine and you gotta get yours
But never endin it by sendin it and shut the door
You must be crazy to think
That you can hang with me
I try to escape the inprisonment of those defyin' to me
The epitome of your every dream it seems to me
For intangible fantasy
You know what I mean
I love to love ya baby
I love to love ya baby
I (yeah) love to love ya baby
Ooooh love to love ya baby
Ha ha ha ha ha
That's right
Watch out there now

Huh huh
So what you gonna do
What you gonna do wit a bitch
A bitch like me nigga (huh)
A bitch like me nigga (what)
A bitch like me
I don't know what
She would do if she knew
That you were comin'
To do what we do
I don't know what
He would do if he knew
That you were comin'
To do what we do
Always wondered if she knew about us
When I met ya you said ya'll had broke up
Right on time cuz I didn't have my love
Me and him was also messed up
That let me fall to you
And from what I could tell you fell too
And I wonder if it would be wrong
If we just kept it on
And I know we
Both had someone that we just kept from
And they still think that they're the only ones
I like the way we hang but it ain't belong
We know the feelings they don't know
Always thought that he knew about you
When I met you I said we were through
In time my feelings came right back
But I didn't let us get off track
And I got so into you
Went too fast what do I do
When I know I shoulda helped it out
But you just turn me on
And I know we
Both had someone that we just kept from
And they still think that they're the only ones
I like the way we hang but it ain't belong
We know the feelings they don't know
We kept things pretty tight thus far
Love without the sex
And hundred thousand dollar cars
Ain't it funny how our auras unify
An entity upon itself
That can spread wings and fly
A peaceful coexistance that will surely last
Becomes a reminiscent dream
For those in our past
If they knew just a fraction of all the things we do
They still wouldn't comprehend
The depth between me and you
And I know we
Both had someone that we just kept from
And they still think that they're the only ones
I like the way we hang but it ain't belong
We know the feelings they don't know
I don't know what
She would do if she knew
Da da da da da da da da da
I don't know what
He would do if he knew
I don't know don't know
Don't know
Yeah baby I
Left Eye
T-Boz
Chilli
Dallas
I don't know don't know
Don't know
What's up
What's up
Shoo doop doo
If I was your girlfriend
Would you remember to tell me
All the things you forgot
If I was your man, if I was your man
If I was your best friend
Would you let me take care of you
And do all the things that only your best friend can
Only your best friends can
If I was your girlfriend
If I was your girlfriend
Would you let me dress you
I mean help you pick out your clothes
Before we go out
Not that you're helpless but sometimes,
Someimes those are the things
That being in love's about
If I was your one and only friend
Would you run to me if somebody hurt you
Even if that somebody was me
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be
Please
If I was your girlfriend
I know I could treat you right
I could see what you see
And hear what you hear
And most of all
I'd feel what you feel
Oh make me wanna say
Shoo doop doo
Ha ha (woo)
Can't nobody tell me what I can
'cause I be lovin' my man rediculously
Well I should ashame
Can't nobody tell me what I can (what what huh huh ha)
Can't nobody tell me what I can
'cause I be lovin' my man rediculously
Well I should ashame
Can't nobody tell me what I can (what what huh huh yea)
No can't nobody ever say I don't love my man
Who are you to justify what I can and can't
Gonna make him love me even more
I don't give him more love than I did before
Chorus:
And I do
Give him the love that he wants
And I do
Give him the love that he needs
And I do
Give him the love that no girl in this world
Could ever touch
And I do
Won't nobody ever share the bond we had
Who are you to manipulate the trust in my man
Gonna show the world what we're made of
Wrapped in his arms he can't get enough
Oh suki suki now
Chorus
Chorus
You ain't never heard a cop like that
Be tryin' to hurl me out of my relationship nonstop
Time to get the po po's
Would you wanna hit me with
I'm like the driest curls you ever dropped
Possibly l-a-d's these days just don't be givin' a kuff
When you thinkin' that you love your man
It's when he tap you on your shoulder sayin'
Baby you ain't givin' me love
Unh you ain't never heard the 9 degrees
They my degrees on lovin' his philosophies
Unity the cornerstone that forms the one
Two ways to trust either all or none
Join honor and respect and form three laws
That hurtle four walls that define the first five of all
Harmony number six takes commitment
Seventh level is peace makes confidence
Balance like a figure eight joined at the hip
Infinity ninth reign never endin' trip
Don't just focus on what your eyes can see
Think clear believe give and receive
I do
Give him the love that he wants
I do
Give him the love that he needs
I do
Give him the love that he wants
I do
Give him the love that he needs
I (I want to change my number)
Cuz you (you steady call my number)
Cuz you
Want everyone to think that (you’re so over me)
But I (I know I got you open)
And you (I know you probably hoping)
That we (can maybe get together)
That’s something I can’t see
I bet you’re still thinkin bout me
I bet you’re still thinkin bout when you’re with her
Cause you still be callin me (at 3:45)
And I can not believe that you are still around
Yo, why you gotta knock on my (do’)
You know I don’t want you no (mo’)
I bet your boys don’t know
That you’re (actin’ like a ...oh!)
Said you was cool without me (but no)
You cain’t do without me (I hope)
That your girlfriend knows
That you’re (crawlin on all fours)
I bet you’re still thinkin bout me
I bet you’re still thinkin bout when you’re with her
Cause you still be callin me (at 3:45)
And I can not believe that you are still around
Since you got so many confessions
Why can’t you admit that you were stressin me out
I’m just glad I learned my lesson
I can’t you back into my life
I’m so much happier now
Now I bet you thinkin bout me
Yo girl is Oh So Kris-pie!
Check it
My lifestyle is cool
Yeah you thinkin of me
But I ain’t thinkin of you ... shoot!
Cause I’m smooth like that
Chuck D’s, pretty face you remember that (oh)
You chose her
You cain’t have this back
Just remember this picture in my Cadillac
I bet you’re still thinkin bout me
I bet you’re still thinkin bout when you’re with her
Cause you still be callin me (at 3:45)
And I can not believe that you are still around
I bet you’re still thinkin bout me
I bet you’re still thinkin bout when you’re with her
Cause you still be callin me (at 3:45)
Being that I am the kinda girl that I am
Nobody can make me do what I don't want to
I can be myself a lot and I'm proud of what I got
So I'll never change for you
Being that I am the kinda girl that I am
Tight jeans don't hit the scene with one like me
I got to feeling free and you better believe I'll
Do what pleases me
Yo Left Eye kick the scene
See everyday last week and not a place to go
This nut still had me dressin' like a fashion show
But not this week I'm chillin' cause it's nothin' to hide
Threw on my baggy dips and waited for my ride
He pulled up knock knock til I opened the door
Peeped my gear and started dissin' me from head to toe
But yo just to let you know, it's takin' ta
Make me wanna say gotta go, gotta go
Hat 2 da back I gotta dick my pants down real low
That's the kinda girl I am
That's the kinda girl I am
Hat 2 da back I gotta kick my pants down real low
That's the kinda girl that I am
Here we go, here we go, here we go again
Being that I am the kinda girl that I am
Some people just don't understand the things I do
(You feelin' it "D", you feelin' it)
Chillin' with the girls or kick it with the fellas
If I choose
Being that I am the kinda girl that I am
Dumb rules are left for fools
With no attitude I think my way is cool
So let me be me and continue being smooth
Yo Left Eye what's up wit' that guy?
So you gettin' back to this dude wit' the foul attitude
Shoot he made another bad move sayin' that
Girls shouldn't wear baseball caps he can go take a hike
Cause it's the style I like yeah it's a trip
Cause somethin' hasn't yet been said
I never talked about them damn fingerwaved in his head
Tight jeans and 2 rings in each ear
You know thatis dead but it's me instead
Here we go again
That's the kinda girl I am
Don't cha know I really don't give a damn
Let me be me for me and not what I'm supposed to be
So I'm gonna do what I wanna do
Cause dumb rules are left for silly fools
That's the kinda girl that I am - ohh!
Here we go, here we go, here we go again
Some people might wonder why we're like that
Cause we're smooth
Smooth you know
Relatively speakin' I am no ordinary dip
Cause I ain't reachin' hipped
Til you be thinkin' I'm flipped
And that is ooooh on the TLC tip
1-2-3-4 y'all
Rollin' to the club
Stop to get my grub on
Nothin' like those Krispy Kremes
Soon as I was done
It was time to get my groove on
Find a place that's happenin'
And I knew that it was on
From the moment that I walked into the spot
It was bangin'
It was swangin' oh
Till somethin' turned me off
I wasn't sure
Coulda swore I saw you with someone
And at much to my surprise (whoa)
You were right there with your hands up in the air
You had hoochies everywhere
All on you
It's like I almost didn't know you
Tryin' to shake that ass
Playa you don't even dance
Sup wit' you
It's like I don't even know you
Left you at the crib
Cause I know you get your game on
Happens every Tuesday night
You said that you was cool
Your boys was comin' by
(Go baby have yourself a real good time)
So I knew I could be wrong
I was thinkin' there's no way it could be you
Not my baby
He ain't crazy no
Then my girlfriends tipped me off
When I got closer I could tell that it was you
You was bangin'
You was swangin' oh
Mindin' my own business
My pager's goin' off
My girlfriends tryin' to tell me
You're doin' wrong
I needed confirmation
I knew you was a dog
You see I had this brother who was mad at me
Cuz I told my home girl that he wasn't packin'
Told the truth so I really don't give a damn
That I spilled the beans on his little short stem man (oh)
Some of y'all be foolin' us
Big feet big hands just plain big
The sex ain't worth a damn
We women wanna know these things
If y'all got the bat but not the swang
Put in work
If you don't want the girl to talk
And you don't want your feelings hurt
Put in work
Cause if you don't
That girl's just gon' go spreadin' the word
Girls talkin' got ya all caught out there
Why you thinkin' that it's all about ya
Forget she told me everything about ya
But the girls are talkin'
The girls are talkin'
Girls talk about the booty too
About the way a brother is hangin' too
When you didn't think that nobody knew
You see the girls are talkin'
The girls are talkin'
Listen y'all need to know this
That we'll straight up go tell your business
So if you're gonna come you better come with it
If you ain't swingin' just put your tongue in it (oh)
Some of y'all be killin me
Thinkin' you got powers like Austin
But you're more like Mini-Me
And when you finally get your blood flowin'
It be lookin' like a pinky with a glove on it
Put in work
If you don't want the girl to talk
And you don't want your feelings hurt
Put in work
Cause if you don't
That girl's just gon' go spreadin' the word
Girls talkin' got ya all caught out there
Why you thinkin' that it's all about ya
Forget she told me everything about ya
But the girls are talkin'
The girls are talkin'
Girls talk about the booty too
About the way a brother is hangin' too
When you didn't think that nobody knew

And you be hurtin' my ears with them lines so swift

Co-signin' from the sidelines tryin' to poke

Are you ready to make me feel the definition of a man (man)
Man, is it hot or is it me (oh-whoa-hoa-hoa)

So don't touch me in the morning and walk away (walk away)
As I commence to yawnin' commence to stay (come on)
Stay up for the rest of the day (day)

Chorus
Chorus
Wit' no mo dresses for y'all
No mo dresses my brother
You have to be down if you wanna be our baby baby baby
Know what I'm sayin'
That's what I'm talkin' about
Everytime you come around,
you always put me down,
you're always on my case.
That's why I act this way,
cuz livin day 2 day,
Is hard enough. to face.
No need to ask me why I feel so down,
When the life it stops, nobody comes around,
And that's why I say.
CHORUS
Don't try so hard,
you're doin fine,
don't go too far,
don't cross the line.
Don't push so hard.
cos I might break,
just need a chance to get away.
Everything in life we know,
we gotta learn by the chances we take.
If we don't give a damn about it we would never try to make away
Just be true about the way you feel,
cos when its right you gotta keep it real.
And that's why I say.
chorus
Nobody can, nobody knows,
but when you don't, it shows,
the way that you live defies the truth,
but the way that you feel about your life reflects on you.
And that's why I say.
chorus x2
Don't try so hard (don't try so hard)
don't go too far (don't go too far)
That's why I say

And you owe every mother in America
A public apology

I get lonely
Every day I think I'm gonna meet ya

Be me, do what I believe in
And be myself
And I suggest everyone do the same thing
You do what makes you feel comfortable
Do what makes you feel happy
Unh, remember me?
Well if you don't
I think after this song
You will
We got tonight all alone baby
No distractions no if and or maybes
Lately we haven't had to time to
Do the things we usually do
I've been thinking bout something
Real special for you
And I want you to be good to me too
Yeah
I love it when you touch me
Feelin' so good that it must be
Right for you to love me
And do all the things that I wanna see
I had a long day and my tension is strong
Need a release baby you turn me on
Whatever you do just don't stop
So oh oh oh
So don't go too fast
(So don't go fast)
Make it a night that I won't forget
Gotta make it last
(Gotta make it last)
Livin' the love that I haven't seen
Awoke from the past
(Woke from the past yeah)
Tonight is the night that you won't regret
So baby just don't pull out on me yet
But when you satisfy me
I can tell it when you know my body
Holdin' me closer to you
Ain't gon' wait let me do what I do
See I get a funny feelin'
That makes me wanna share it
Over and over again
I love it when you touch me
Feelin' so good that it must be
Right for you to love me
And do all the things that I wanna see
I had a long day (had a long day)
And my tension is strong (tension is strong)
Need a release baby you turn me on (you turn me on)
Whatever you do just don't stop
So oh oh oh
I was like peace in a groove
On a sunday afternoon
You were there so was I
In the park 4th of July
I was chillin' with my Kool-Aid
When Miss Chilli came to relay
That you had a thang for me
Finest thang you'd ever seen
I must admit to you
I've heard them lines a time or two
Although for some apparent reason
Monkey lines are now in season
Lights off, lights on
I guess the groove is on so I am
Diggin' the scene
Diggin' on you
Diggin' on me
Baby bay-ooo-baby baby
It's on like that
It's on like that
I gotta be in love or somethin' like that
I was like deep in a cool
What'nt gone be nobody's fool
Could not care less who was there
Could've been like anywhere
I was chillin' with my Kool-Aid
Did not want to par-ti-ci-pate
In no silly conversations
Had no time for new relation-ships
I must admit to you
When I heard the lines you threw
Although it usually turns me off
But this time you have turned me on
Lights off, lights on
I guess the groove is on and I am
Oh why do I feel the way I do
When all I can think about is you
Diggin' diggin' diggin' on you
What was it in a line
That made me fall for you
Do you know
Why I'm diggin' diggin' diggin' diggin' on you
Diggin' on you
It's on like that
Guys they always wonder about me (yeah, I hear ya "T")
Cause everything I have is my own (I'm feelin' dis)
There's no other way you can doubt me (and I'm listenin')
Before I trust you I'll just be here alone
Can I tell ya, can I tell ya, can I tell ya
Gosh golly dern so you still haven't learned
Well I'll be a damn fool
See cause it's headaches you've honestly earned me
You're jackin' da plan I'm like who are you man
Peter Pan but it's still cool G
Slack off my back slip da hell out
My knee and yo correct dat effect
I'm not feelin dis G
I can depend on myself
I don't need anybody else
To be on my back like that, to be on my back like that
Buys they always wonder what's with me
(say what, say what, say what)
I never let them get in too close
I have my own control
I can't be bought or sold
And I never have to do what I'm told
Yo ladies are you feelin' what I'm sayin'
Well smoke okey doke as if this was a joke
Cause you think you got balls of the great n' black jaws
But your leg I will poke like an egg crackin' a busted yolk
It's a negative cause I won't pause
Til you truthfully see are you
Listenin' to me til you truthfully
See indendently like I handle myself
I need nobody else
A fist full of fate how much more can I take
This is 6 minus 7 plus 1 ending none you should go to
Where I'm comin' from take your turn tryna teach
A dumb-dumb so it be just a bad memory
Til you truthfully see are you listenin' to me
Til you truthfully see independently
Like I handle myself I need nobody else
Dear lie
You suck
You said you could fix anything
Instead I'm fucked
You made things even worse for me
If I had balls I'd tell you get away from me
Guess I'm not smart
I let you unnerve me
I let you control me
Afraid the truth would hurt me
When it's you that hurts me more
Get outta my mouth
Get outta my head
Get outta my mind
Stop puttin' words in my head
Get outta my mouth
You're nothing but trouble
Get outta my life
Get out of me
Out of me (out of me)
Out of me
Out of me lie
Lie lie lie lie
Dear lie
You're dumb
You think you've got the best of me
You think you won
Misread my vulnerability
I've got your walls
Now get the hell away from me
I've learned your art
Won't let you unnerve me
Won't let you control me
The truth will only free me
And your lies won't hurt no
No more
Lie lie
I've got
Your walls
Now get the hell away from me
I learned your art
Won't let you unnerve me
Wont' let you control me
The truth will only free me
And your lies won't hurt no
No more
Lie lie
Dear lie
Lie Lie Lie Lie

If you want some, come get some
If you want some, come get some
If you want some, come get some
I thought that I knew about 'em
Thought that they would never do me wrong
Well well they smile in your face
When all the time they wanna take your place
Them backstabbers
Same old scene that
You've seen for so long
Always want to be around you
But as jealous as they come
Well don't want you to win that race
'Cause if you do it's gonna lessen their space
That's when I decide to say
Goodbye, goodbye
To all the fake people in my life
I never wanted you around me
So be on your way now
You better think twice
Before you let people in your life
Because when you put down
No one is around you
You got a case of the fake people
A case of the fake people
I thought that I knew about 'em
The only ones that really care for me
Oh yeah
But they shouldn't be that way
Only down for as long as
You can give security
Same old scene that you've seen for so long
Always want to be around you
But as jealous as they come well
Don't want you to win that race
'Cause if you do it's gonna lessen their space
I want to be somebody
I want to make a difference
Little boy caught in a drive-by
Witnessed the killer who made his daddy die,
And 'cause he identified and signed the dotted line,
He could feel it in his stomach, he signed away his life
Little boy who once was the leader of his class
The little source of joy, always neatly dressed
Now would hang his head and be left crying at his desk,
Was found with his mother, lying in her lap
With two bullets in his chest
Bridge:
And, oh my god, what is this madness?
I will not let it kill my gladness
And, oh my god, what is this madness?
My joy inside will send this message
Chorus:
I want to be somebody
I want to make a difference,
For we all are children of the mother
I want to be somebody
I want to make a difference,
For we all are children of the father
Outspoken man, leading sisters and brothers,
Picked himself up from hustling, drugs and gutters
Doing time on the inside, he found a higher power
Now, back with a mission to help us help each other
Respected from bourgeoisie to homeless in the street
From universities, africa, the middle east
And through the threats of death he spoke truth and set men free
But the power of the truth made enemies of the weak
He was killed by his own people
Bridge
Chorus
Ignite this fire inside, this light that is the truth
Shake off the system's chains, no longer be their fool
In the face of brutality, show the other cheek
Trigger-happy policing will never kill our dignity
Bridge
Yo, get, get up on the TLC tip
Get, get up on the TLC tip
Hey now
You know how to pull my chain
And I believe every word you say
But now it's time we must say goodbye
Baby I'm leaving so don't you cry
I tried to make things work
But now you're gone and your heart got hurt
Well you thought I belong to you
But you were wrong so now what ya gon' do
Bad by myself
I can do bad, bad by my damn self
I can do bad by myself
Yo I done it before and I can do it again
Sho don't need you to be my man
Don't come bangin' on my door
Now you're gone I don't want you anymore
There's no reason for you to come around
So just step off so I don't have to break it down
I know what I'm doin' now
You think you're gonna change my mind somehow
You cheated me now I'm cheatin' back
I run the show and you can kiss my
You know the rest
You Left Eye what it is
My soda crack o' my ackra back o' da "T" To da "B" to da "O" to
Da "Z" and C.H.I wit da double LI. L.E.F.T.E.Y.E. Eye E.I.E.I.O.
So yo how's ya linin'
I was givin' a niggah a piece o' time
But my time can't be wasted on B.S.
So nevermind
You I can do bad all by byself
I sho don't need you and anyone else
I ain't gonna be a fool no more
Better take that mess on out the door
Tried to ruin my world
Tried to run my life
Must be crazy thinkin' I'm your wife
Yo I done it before and I can do it again
Sho don't need you to be my man
Yep, yep (hey) get up on the TLC tip
Yo if Peter Piper weas to pick ya know a peck o' those pickled
Peppers gave his girly little Shirley half a peck
He could've kept her but instead da picklehead
Was kicked out da waterbad
And greedy Petey now is needy cause not one was all that he left her
Oooooooh I'm sayin' it once and not twice
Givin' advice to be nice before you fall through the ice
Cause lately you been slippin' up a lot
Not even givin' half o' what you got
But it's about that time you gave a quarter for a dime
Shovel up and start diggin' to see what you can find
That security deposit
So like it or leave it but until I receive it
I'll be leavin' my deposit elsewhere
You best belive it
And that way we can both take a trip
Oooh on the TLC tip
I Believe...
When someone passes away...
Either a star is born,
Energy so pure,
That it creates new worlds...
Or as the soul releases,
Shatters into peices,
Becoming free flowing thoughts,
From a mental thesis...
Maybe we just don't understand,
Spirits, can still walk the land,
Or whatever the case, I believe,
That we all still remain to share the same space...
(Lisa Lopes)
So dad, I know your listenin',
How have you been?
Oh I'm doin' fine.
Just passin' time
Submerge to the sea,
Every time I take a bath,
I jus' get all dirty again,
Tryin' to cleanse my mind,
Cleanse my soul,
And get in...Into that place you've been,
Noo, I'm not trying to rush anything,
Just wanna visit you,
Because I miss you,
So whatchu tryin' to say?
My imaginations been wild,
Since I've been a child,
Since you laughing now,
I'm taking it good things are happening again.
(Chorus)
The day I learned you were born,
A new star is born, new star, new star, is born
Listen, Voices fill my mind,
Say to look up in the sky,
When I did, there you were.
(Lisa Lopes)
Well, I'm sure you already know this,
I'm a big pop star,
And my pop is a star, (hm,hm)
You know you really are,
Sometimes I feel like I'm aimless,
I kinda made you a little famous,
Always spilling my guts,
Explainin' to these people,
Who think I'm nuts.
I told 'em how you and moms,
Prenuppled up, My excuse you were such a disrupt,
Yeah, They sure did, They called you an abusive drunk,
Sorry, Didn't relize, The Media could run with it,
But now I know and,
Sometimes I try to have fun with it,
(Chorus)
The Day I learned you were born,
A new star is born, a new star, a new star, is born,
Listen, Voices fill my mind,
Say to look up in the sky,
And when I did, There you were.
(Lisa Lopes)
What did you say?
You wish to be free?
Been here all this time, Because of me?
And on August 16,
2001, everything that I wish to release, release.
I see...First of all, I give you my thanks for preparing me,
To be open and free,
I release my mind, release my soul,
Release the curse, Break the mold,
Release my record, 20 million sold,
And release my pops your free to go,
And create a new galaxy,
Yes dad, you'll still be right next to me.
(Chorus)
The day I learned you were born,
A new star is born, new star, new star, is born
Listen, Voices fill my mind,
Say to look up in the sky,
And when I did, there you were.
(Repeat twice)
And you want my love
Well that's alright
Well it will be there for you morning, noon and night
But you gotta be good
And do it right
Ain't got no time for part-time lovin' in my life
Well you wanna be loved (uh)
Hey that's O.K.
Cause it falls in line right with my sexuality
But you gotta be down
A nickel gotta be true
Cause otherwise this "B" ain't got no time for you
Oh baby, baby, baby
I got so much love in me
Ooh (baby, baby,) baby, baby, baby
Cause if your're gonna get me off
You got to love me deep
Well you want my heart (uh)
And all my time
Well it won't be there if you can't deal with my mind
Cause a girl like me (uh)
Won't stand for less
I require plenty conversation with my sex
Long as you know that I could have any man I want to
Baby that's actual and factual
But still I choose you to be with me
And work on me so you better not flake it up
Ohhhhhh
Baby, baby, baby
Ain't got no time for the part-time lovin'
I got so much love in me
I gotta be loved
And that's O.K.
Baby, baby, baby
Cause if you're gonna get me off
You got to love me deep
(Get me off)
Baby Long as you know that I could have any man I want to
Baby that's actual and factual
But still I choose you to be with me
And work on me so you better not flake it up
Well you want my heart
And all my time
Well it won't be there if you can't deal with my mind
Cause a girl like me
I won't stand for less
I require plenty conversation with my sex
I can have any man that I want to
Time and place that I choose to
But I think you know that I'd rather be here with you
Yeah
That's actual and factual
You're the one I seem to run back to
Just to get me off
You got to love me, got to love me, got to love me

And expect me to be alone
I can get cold
But if you're gonna do me wrong
I'll get you back
Baby that's just just automatic
I remember when I met
The man with all the confidence
Every day was promises to me

So ya best be duckin' fast
Yo T-Boz is ya being a boss
Chilli what's up wit' dat sauce?
Dis is it
Yo "T" step on that (shhh)
I ain't 2 proud, I ain't 2 proud 2 beg
Thinkin' short of what you got
Better get it while it's hot
Ain't no better love than your own
Unmistakin' urge 2 be sexin' with society
How can you be happy alone
When I need 2 feel love
Why wait 4 so long
Cause I ain't 2 proud 2 beg
4 Something that I call my own
And I want 2 be touched
And feeling so much see cause
Everybody needs some good lovin'
Yo if I need it in the morning or the middle of the night
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg (no)
If the lovin' is strong then he got it goin' on and
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg (no)
2 Inches or a yard rock hard or if it's saggin'
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg (no)
So it ain't like I'm braggin' just join the paddywagon cause
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg, I ain't 2 proud 2 beg
Screaming' loud and holdin' sheets
Scsared that you'll be called a freak
Gotta let it go while you can
Ain't 2 proud 2 beg you see
Cause my man belongs 2 me
And I know that he understands
Realize the realism of reality treats
Us both the same
Cause satisfaction is the name of this game
So I choose to explain it's evident
Left Eye don't mean the rest of my body is irrelevant
In outher words let's refresh your head
About pullin' down curtains and breakin' da waterbed
Yeah I like it when you (kiss)
Both sets of lips
Oooh on the TLC tip
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg (I ain't 2 proud 2 beg)
What I call my own
Just you and me (uh)
Heyyyyyyy
I ain't 2 proud 2 beg

Kid 'n play & tlc
(the version of the song that tlc apears in is on the movie only.
The song "make noize" is on the house party 3 soundtrack, but tlc does not appear on it)
The duo's back in effect
On the house party set
Catchin' wreck on the mic check
Before we tear it up I turn and
Give my partner a high-five
''cause it's time to get live so
Chorus:
When I say make some
You say "noize"
Make some
Noize
Make some
Noize
Chorus
Well it's the kid from kid 'n play
Now that's a rap group
I'm not that suit but I'm livin' phat troop
You lookin' that cute the girl in the cat suit
In my back coop rhymin' over another phat loop
Oops feelin' good pop the tape in the tape deck
And I'm catch wreck
Then cash a fat check
Jet what the heck grab the mic for a mic check
Right before your eyes equalize with the goose neck
Who's next who's gonna flex with the hype
Rhyme as big as my type
I'm flowin' like a pipeline
Goin' for the mic sign
Gonna have a fine time
Name up in here like d I'm goin' prime time
Trynna score a touchdown
Trynna make a slam dunk
Breakin' off a fat chunk
'cause this track is mad funk
Niggas tried to say I never gave back
Get ready for the payback
This is a house party plat
Chorus
Chorus
P to the l-a-y in the place to be
What's the matter brother didn't you hear me
See I'm the man that you heard about
The fly dark-skinned brother that the girlies spread the word about
And then you wonder why I get sex more
You get vexed more ''cause I'm the boy next door
And with a smile and a grin and then I go up in
And then an hour later I'm at it again
Friend and then I'm ready to go but you don't hear me though
And I'm about to throw just like rainbow
I keep an even flow watch as I do the show
And i'ma flip it and kick it like jeter so
Don't try to say that I can't when I can pull
Watch me trample this hip-hop sample
The choice is yours right
You can either catch a cap or get slapped
Or seen in court jack
Chorus
Chorus
Knock knock you gotta let me in
''cause I know you got alligator skin underneath of your chin
And I only must pick a rough neck nigger
Check 'em in the set just to see who's bigger
The left never ever did expect to pull it when i
Say it's time to get it up I know he can't show it
And if you make a mistake he'll never give in
Stupid motherfucker
Well if my hat is 2 da back then you can sorta say it's crooked
As a look that only nookie gives a rough neck rookie
Jump the hump a rump bump the back hit the front
Take a dump in the stump roll a big fat blunt
And if he's quick to hand it to you don't grab it
He only really want it if he know he can't have it
Chase a rough neck bet you'll say dag nabbit
Mr. butter willie never did catch that dag nab wabbit

Virtual Vic-E:
In the club
People use material things
To increase their chances of a pick up
Such as diamond rolexes, Prada bags
And Versace outfits
I guess it makes them feel special
Not everybody knows just how to do it
Some just learn it on the way
Once you get it right, ain't nothin' to it
If you wanna get it right, you gotta learn to pace
Make it smooth, take your time
Make it groove, in, out, in
Make it last
Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss my ah, ah
This is how it works
Wrap your hands around my body
This is how it works
Go due south
And this is how it works
Melt yourself into my body
This is how it works
Kiss my mouth
Some guys think they know the answers
Everybody knows how to make you scream
If most guys took time out their fantasies
Maybe we could stop our make believe
Make it smooth, take your time
Make it groove, in, out, in
Make it last
Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss my ah, ah
This is how it works
Wrap your hands around my body
This is how it works
Go due south
And this is how it works
Melt yourself into my body
This is how it works
Kiss my mouth
Ready, set, go
You don't have to know
We can take forever, learn together any flow
Touch me slow, watch it grow
Kiss the tip, gently blow, be my ho and take the show
We can watch it in slow-mo, when the sweet and low drips
Don't forget to let me wet my finger tips
Write love letters back and forth across your lips
Spread my hips, count to eighty, eighty ways, eighty trips
One time for you mind
Two times if you're tense baby, let it unwind
Three counts, let it bounce
To the mothafuckin' ounce
Here we go, now you know 4th down
Let it flow back around, come on
Kiss my, kiss my
This is how it works
Wrap your hands around my body
This is how it works
Go due south
And this is how it works
Melt yourself into my body
This is how it works
Kiss my mouth, yeah
Is the way it works
Is the way it works
Is the way it works
This is how you melt my body
Is the way it works
Is the way it works
Is the way it works
This is how you melt my body
This is how it works
Wrap your hands around my body
This is how it works
Go due south
And this is how it works
Melt yourself into my body
This is how it works
Kiss my mouth
This is how it works, yeah

He just wanted something to eat
A place to love, a place to pray
In God we trust and it’s okay
He said I’m Black, Latin, and Gay
I went to them, they turned away
Where life is holding you down
And you’re having trouble finding peace
You gotta be brave, and pray until you bleed
Where life is holding you hot
In a place you don’t want to be
You gotta Posh Life, cause life is all you need
We live a Posh life
The world says we’re not brave until we bleed
You gotta trust the future of us, believe
We live a Posh Life
We’re nothing but our leather and our dreams
You gotta trust in the future of us, believe
Posh Life
Posh Life
Posh Life
We’ll fight until we bleed
Grew up, I never thought of it
Nineteen, move to the big city
To find a dream, to find a way
Put the concrete of Lower East
Inscribing sharpie on the stage
Passionately, oh mister, they hear me there
Where life is holding you down
And you’re having trouble finding peace
You gotta be brave, and pray until you bleed
Where life is holding you hot
In a place you don’t want to be
You gotta Posh Life, cause life is all you need
We live a Posh life
The world says we’re not brave until we bleed
You gotta trust the future of us, believe
We live a Posh Life
We’re nothing but our leather and our dreams
You gotta trust in the future of us, believe
Posh Life
We live a Posh Life
Posh Life
We’ll fight until we bleed
Posh Life
We live a Posh Life
Posh Life
Fight until we bleed
This ain’t no chapel, no office breathing
Where love is Posh Life for just one reason
We got each other, when it hurts, change, and giving
Where love is Posh Life for just one reason
We live the Posh life
The world says we’re not brave until we bleed
You gotta trust the future of us, believe
We live the Posh Life
We’re nothing but our leather and our dreams
You gotta trust in the future of us, believe
Posh Life
We live a Posh Life
Posh Life
We’ll fight until we bleed
Posh Life
We live a Posh Life
Posh Life

Tis the season to be givin'
And I've got somethin' just for you
Let's take a trip to my cabin
We can celebrate
A funky christmas made for 2 (oh)
That's all I want
Chorus:
All I want for christmas
Is to be loved by someone like you
Outside the snow is falling
My heart is calling
To spend my christmas time alone with you
Now throw a log on the fire
Then we could trim the tree
How much fun it would be
To take a walk in the snow
As you're holding me close
That would be your christmas gift to me
Chorus
Maybe it ain't got nothin' to do
With my 2 front teeth
Not unless of course you're lookin'
For some chewed up beef
See I love ya cuz I'm in love
And in love cuz I love ya
These words and sentences is for the heads
Between and above ya
Can you imagine me alone
A dial tone
A two flips cone
The echo of a moan
A single bow
A measley dug it
A pea in the bucket
Flat out for christmas all I wanna do is (yow)
Maybe if my baby didn't treat me like a lady
Just the hose for my toes
Kiss the spot that's mostly shady
Twist the left all around
Flips these lips upside down
Then you'll never have to ask me why I'm crazy
So hear me in or hear me out
Give me deaf or give me doubt
Or tell me what it's all about
And if you figure out my flow
Be it fast or be it slow
Me and my baby will be chillin' with the mistletoe
Chorus
So tell me what you gonna do
Do you think you gonna come through
?Cuz I wanna find out if those kinky rumors
'Bout you are true
See I heard that from my crew
Said you'll have me feeling brand new
Oh yeah, they say you are an expert in

Yo what up
Hit a q.u.e.s.t.i.o.n.
Oh about the war?
The war?
But I'm sayin' yo
D-damian dame
What is goin' on
Because the squabblin' is just insane
What's goin' on as a brother used to say
Kinda makes you think about back in that day
Peace was the word or haven't you heard
All this hype about war is absurd
What's goin' around comes around
Vietnam relived (yeah)
It's the same old sound
Missiles gliding families dividing
The american dream
Is quickly declining
Depression opression I thought we learned a lesson
From the last time
Nobody wants to stand in the cheese and bread line
Not me see (nah ah)
Recycled generations of love and war
And the question of what!
What we fighting for?
Killin' for oil 'cause we're spoiled with luxury
They gotta have it
So saddam got rushed g
It got crazy and civilians were hit you see (damn)
A thud a scud all for what
It's time to begin the end
Somebody give it up
Sixty seconds turn off the news
'cause every channel
Who shot who
Ain't no glory
'cause in the end it will be his-story
Oooh yes

Are these girls necessary?
Why are they all up on you?
And why do you act like it's cool?

All the crazy shit we've been through
Can't take no more tears
Fell in love when I first met you
Put you all on my team
Introduced you to my crew
Told you my every dream

You see I had this brother who was mad at me
'Coz I told my home girl that he wasn't packin'
Told the truth so I really don't give a damn
That I spilled the beans on his little short stem man
Some of y'all be foolin' us
Big feet big hands just plain big, the sex ain't worth a damn
We women wanna know these things
If y'all got the bat but not the swang
Put in work if you don't want the girl to talk
And you don't want your feelings hurt
Put in work 'coz if you don't
That girl's just gon' go spreadin' the word
Girls talkin' got ya all caught out there
Why you thinkin' that it's all about ya?
Forget she told me everything about ya
But the girls are talkin', the girls are talkin'
Girls talk about the booty too
About the way a brother is hangin' too
When you didn't think that nobody knew
You see the girls are talkin', the girls are talkin'
Listen y'all need to know this
That we'll straight up go tell your business
So if you're gonna come you better come with it
If you ain't swingin' just put your tongue in it
Some of y'all be killin' me
Thinkin' you got powers like Austin but you're more like Mini-Me
And when you finally get your blood flowin'
It be lookin' like a pinky with a glove on it
Put in work if you don't want the girl to talk
And you don't want your feelings hurt
Put in work 'coz if you don't
That girl's just gon' go spreadin' the word
Girls talkin' got ya all caught out there
Why you thinkin' that it's all about ya?
Forget she told me everything about ya
But the girls are talkin', the girls are talkin'
Girls talk about the booty too
About the way a brother is hangin' too
When you didn't think that nobody knew
You see the girls are talkin', the girls are talkin'
What up papi, you think you got game?
I know you're feelin' like my sexual tame can make ya happy
You'll remember me Left eye, TLC
You got to lick it before you stick it and that's just me
I be killin' 'em with the Gucci fits and kicks
And you be hurtin' my ears with them lines so swift
You get a new approach, you're game's a joke
Co-signin' from the sidelines tryin' to poke
I'm bigger than that, you're small talk face the fact
You wanna rock the boat a little, well earn your pass
And it's the last call for alcohol, meet at the bar
Me and my girls doin' it big we pop stars
Girls talkin' got ya all caught out there
Why you thinkin' that it's all about ya?
Forget she told me everything about ya
But the girls are talkin', the girls are talkin'
Girls talk about the booty too
About the way a brother is hangin' too
When you didn't think that nobody knew
You see the girls are talkin', the girls are talkin'
Girls talkin' got ya all caught out there
Why you thinkin' that it's all about ya?
Forget she told me everything about ya
But the girls are talkin', the girls are talkin'
Girls talk about the booty too
About the way a brother is hangin' too
When you didn't think that nobody knew

You ain't doin' it right until your hands get wet
T-Boz rock on, Richie Rich come on
Get this straight a player don't hate he congratulate
While you demonstrate you givin' your N-I-G a break
I let your fingers be the reason that I stay out late
When double R come home
You're touchin' teasin' like Case
Bringin' the shakes plus joy like Anita Bake
All the way from the O to the ATL it ain't safe
Playas check your game slow ballers check nuts
And if you're scared go to church 'cause the remix hurts
Chorus:
Every night I get away
I don't need nobody baby but you (you)
I ain't afraid to touch myself
I don't need nobody else but you (you yeah)
A splash in the pool
Come home ridin' duals
Triple gold game sold not told
Fuck wit' that nigga all hundred G stacks
Kamakaze but yet and still I can't lock down my bozzie
Due to the jack I ask myself who's the mack
On the bed shakin' damn who bringin' home the bacon (me)
Thought it was my nigga who was stealin' the guts
Richie Rich bangin' hard but she ain't gettin' enough
Let me watch nigga 'cause you my boo for sure
Goin' brown in the town what the fuck I got to do
Spend a gang o' loot hella Benzes on the fluke
I'm a catcher tell me when it's time to shoop
Bridge:
I won't be afraid to touch myself
It's alright I said it's alright (hey)
I don't think it's wrong to touch yourself
Cause ain't nothin' wrong with makin' it feel good
Chorus
Who hooked it that nigga Jermaine Dupri
Who hooked it uhh, T-B-O-Z
Who hooked it the D-U double B-L-E
And if you're scared go to church 'cause the remix hurts
Who hooked it that nigga Jermaine Dupri
Who hooked it uhh, T-B-O-Z
Who hooked it the D-U double B-L-E
And if you're scared go to church 'cause the remix hurts
Chorus
Hope you thinkin' of me when you're touchin' yourself
Hope you think of me when you're rubbin' your body
Hope you thinkin' of me when you're touchin' yourself
Hope you think of me when you're rubbin' your body
Don't stop (don't stop)
I'm not finished yet
You ain't doin' it right until your hands get wet
Yeah uh, LaFace check it out
Don't stop (don't stop)
I'm not finished yet
You ain't doin' it right until your hands get wet
Touch me, come on
Up and down, all around
Don't stop (don't stop)

You ain't doin' it right until your hands get wet

I'm not finished yet
You ain't doin' it right until your hands get wet
Verse I
I've imagined faces of many lovers
To ease the pain of having no one
In My Life.
And i'm tried of being undercover...
It's time to Navigate my feelings tonight...
Hook:
The sky is calm
The stars are bright.
What's better than to be in flight.
I'll relax my mind
And be at ease...
and let this journey
Set me free
Set me free.
Chrous:
I'll Spread my wings
And fly away...(away)
To a place. that I long for.
And my heart will be... the pathway.
I'm searching for a love
That 's ever more...
verse II
I've oftened wondered how'd i managed.
Always seraching, but, not finding a true heart.
What does it take to find me a lover.
I'm hoping that I dont' have to fly.
to far...
Hook:
Cause the sky is calm
The stars are bright.
And what's better than
to be in flight.
I'll relax my mind and be at ease.
and let this journey set me free
Set me free...
(Repeat Chorus)
I thought that I knew about 'em
Thought that they would never do me wrong
Well well they smile in your face
When all the time they wanna take your place
Them backstabbers
Same old scene that
You've seen for so long
Always want to be around you
But as jealous as they come
Well don't want you to win that race
'Cause if you do it's gonna lessen their space
That's when I decide to say
Goodbye, goodbye
To all the fake people in my life
I never wanted you around me
So be on your way now
You better think twice
Before you let people in your life
Because when you put down
No one is around you
You got a case of the fake people
A case of the fake people
I thought that I knew about 'em
The only ones that really care for me
Oh yeah
But they shouldn't be that way
Only down for as long as
You can give security
Same old scene that you've seen for so long
Always want to be around you
But as jealous as they come well
Don't want you to win that race
'Cause if you do it's gonna lessen their space
That's when I dcide to say
[Kane]
Question.. what has he done, for you lately?
Tell me.. do y'all go for walks on the beach?
I just wanna know, if you had dinner at the pond
or the drive-through at Mickey D's
You say the last movie y'all saw was _Jaws_? Mmm
Well never fear baby, the Big Daddy is here
I come up upon the scene to romance thee
with a little bit of T.L.C. to tickle your fancy
Give you protection, warmth and affection
Make sure you never feel any rejection
Without a doubt, I admire you, I have a desire to
be a more better man prior to
your past relationships, you've been datin
with all the wrong gentlemen, I'm more sentimental
in my own little way so (HEY!)
Whattaya say about givin a play okay?
Cause I'm not here to impress you, I wanna caress you
posess you and bless you, nevertheless
to make you feel secure, and real sure
Mon cheri amore, pretty woman I adore
Don't shed a tear never fear my dear I'll be there
anywhere with some Tender Lovin Care
Chorus: repeat 2X
Just a little bit of T.L.C.
Tender Lovin Care you'll get from me
Just a little bit of T.L.C.
Tender Lovin Care is what you need
[Kane]
In the beginning I only wanted to be your friend
but then..
It may sound strange, but my feelings started to change
And now I wanna sustain..
somethin more closer, give you the most of my love
and my time and respect as opposed to
sayin she's "Just a Friend"
I may sound like Biz, but you know what time it is
I want us to be together and benevolent
with reverance to give you the best relationship there ever been
So consider me as as as as as a-a-as your lover
Damn baby, you make me stutter
But I'm still able to, clearly say to you
things that I feel *smooch* and kiss your navel too
Givin much T.L.C.
as I make love to you constantLY
Chorus
[Kane]
May I?
He ever treat you with the
proper amount of chivalry, would be so, mmmm
Break!
* just the drums for a bit *
Bass!
* bassline comes for a bit *
* music by itself comes in, then.. *
[Kane]
I hope to form a special thing that we can cherish
Everlasting, it won't perish
Establish a special thing that's based on love
and trust, in other words, it's all about us
You won't have to ever search for Tender Lovin Care
Cause for you I got it right here
You'll never find none greater
Sincerely yours,
The Smooth Operator
I see your faceYour fucking two faced smile
And I am filled with hate
And I wont reconcile
Feel my anger rise, I rage I lothe I seethe
And if I see you here, then you won't fucking leave
See your face and I wanna hate
See your face and I wanna hate, I want to hate.
You're the one that I wanna hate
And I anticipate your next move
Your gonna loose cause I got nothing left to prove
You better run you better hide
I'm getting sick of all these lies
And soon there will come a time
When vengeance will be mine
All those whove done me wrong
My vengeance I will seek
You sowed the seeds of hate
And now its time to reap
Feel my anger Rise
I rage I loathe I seethe
And if I see you heere
Then you won't fucking leave
See your face and I wanna hate
See your face and I wanna hate I want to
You're the one that I wanna hate
And I anticipate your next move
Your gonna loose cause I got nothing left to prove
You better run you better hide
Im getting sick of all thse lies
And soon there will come a time
