I think its safe to say

its nothing more then the love that you give me
keeps me from drowning in tears

oh, you make me smile
come through and save the day
you make me smile

in a very special way
everywhere i go
people keep and ask me
where i'd get my joy why am i so happy
in these trying times when a frown is the fashion
im beaming like the sun now how can that be
see the answer to the query is very simple
im always grinning from dimple to dimple
because you love me unconditionally
my happiness is heartsake
now cant you see
(where do we go)[spoken words]
you make me smile
oh, you make me smile
come through and save the day
you make me smile
you make me smile
in a very special way
Cross this road
When I was just a little boy
Well, I would go out to play
And I would wander so far from home
That I would lose my way
And I'd call my momma to help me
And she'd come right away
To help me get back home where I wanna be
And here's what I say
Momma, hold my hand
I don't think I can cross this road by myself
Momma, hold my hand
I don't think I can cross this road by myself
And when I was a young man
I would go astray
Didn't want nobody to hold my hand
Wanted to make my own way
And my momma would come out to help me
But I push her away
'Cause I just wanted to be on my own
And here's what I say
Momma, leave my hand
I been waiting to cross this road by myself
Cross this road by myself
Well, now that I'm a grown man
And I moved away
I got a house, a nine to five and my wife
We got a kid on the way
Momma told me that life's gonna get rough
Take it day by day
But every once in a while I get scared
And I wish I could say
Momma, hold my hand
I don't think I can cross this road by myself
Momma, hold my hand
I don't think I can cross this road by myself
Now my momma is near the end of her years
And her hair is gray
Sometimes I call her to ask her if she would like
To spend the day
Momma used to be strong but she ain't now
And she can't make her way
That's why I'm always around when she needs help
And here's what I say
Momma, hold my hand
I don't think you can cross this road by yourself
Momma, hold my hand
You never thought that you'd ever get caught
With your hand up in the cookie jar
Playing spades with the devil
Now, boy, why'd you have to go and do that for?
See, you better stop your bluffing now
You know they make up the rules
You think you playing the game
Now, brother, you played the fool
They gon' play you for a fool
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And if I die before I wake
Must be a mistake, Lord take me back
Know it ain't right sometimes
But we running all through my mind
I know it ain't right
Don't believe it when they say justice is blind
Oh, there's something awful in the way
You've been working all on my nerves
And I've been thinking every day
I'm gonna give them what they deserve
They gon' get what they deserve
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And if I die before I wake
Said, if I die before I wake
Well if I die before I wake
It's got to, got to, got to be a mistake, Lord take me back
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And if I die before I wake
I know it got to be a mistake, Lord take me back
Ooh, take me back
Whoa, Lord take me back
Ooh, you got to take me back
I don't need this, I don't deserve it
It ain't my fault, ain't nobody perfect
This ain't justice, and I didn't do it
They just talking, but they can't prove it
Gimme a chance, start over again
All I want is a different end
Start it over, over again
[Chorus 1:]
Met a girl by the name of miss fortune,
Her daddy was a very rich man
Told me "son proceed with caution,
If you wanna take my little girls hand
See the money that I have might be good for some,
It's downright danger to another
And little miss fortune is sure to become,
Unfortunately just like her mother
"You see back when I was young and dumb, I had a choice
Before me and mama fortune got wed
Between riding in a bus or driving a new rolls rice, yeah
And I decided what I wanted was the bread
"But the problem with having everything you want
Is you never really know what you need, hey
Now miss fortune is this bored little debutant, and it's my fault
So I suggest you take my heed.
[Chorus 2:]
"So you met my little girl miss fortune,
And you know that I'm a very rich man
I told you to proceed with caution,
If you wanna take my little girls hand
See the money that I have might be good for some,
It's downright danger to another
And little miss fortune is sure to become,
Unfortunately just like her mother"
Hey, well I thanked miss fortunes father, said, I understand
But you're tryin to talk me down, yes you are
Listen here you ain't have to brother, cause I'm a real strong man
I'm sure I could turn your daughter around
See what she needs is someone who can take control
Let the girl know her place and how to play her role
Tell her all the money in the world cannot replace her soul
And she need to stop acting like shes 12 years old
When she put the ring on her finger, everything started to change
And I looked at myself in the mirror, and oh I was looking strange
She had me out everyday spending money, and all kinds of ridiculous things
See I forgot what life was all about, little miss fortune was to blame
[Chorus 3:]
So I married this girl miss fortune,
And his daddy was a very rich man
And even though he told me take caution,
I still took his little girls hand
See money don't do everybody the same,
And it's downright danger to a brother
And little miss fortune surely became,
Unfortunately just like her mother, hey
You gotta watch out for miss fortune,
Brothers you must proceed with caution
Don't let lady luck pass you by,
Whoah, might as well give good grace a try
All I wanted was a little dance with lady luck but
She won't give me a chance
And what I could use is some good old grace,
But she refuses to show her face
All I wanted was a little dance with lady luck but
She won't give me a chance
And what I could use is some good old grace,
But she refuses to show her face
See I was seeing this one chick, I'm telling y'all
She was thick, just like house made of bricks
Plus she dress good
And when I'm rolling through the hood to pick her up
I feel like the king of good luck
We go to dinner and the movies and all
And if I feel like spending money I take her to the mall
But see she be getting pissed off when I don't pay her no mind
Not returning her phone calls and not investing my time
She don't know it - but I got something else that I'm
Pursuing, it makes my heart sparkle and shine
Sometimes when I kick a rhyme she keeps me in line
I love the way we combine because she's musically inclined
Anyway one day I brought her in the car with me
I thought that I would introduce her to my other lady, but
The other chick through a fit and ran out quick
But that's cool, 'cause now it's just me and my music
Skin deep was the beauty on the physical frame
But check her mind was the same making it hard to spit game
Through my front teeth instead I release ill conversation
Had my whole entire body tingling off the sensation
I mean we spent seven hours in conversation
We take turns listening so I know she has patience
It shows me that her mind is in focus
She ain't victim to brothas spittin presto hocus pocus
We've been talking a while so I wear a smile
Even bought new gear so I could wear a new style
We sing songs of emotion filled with mass appeal
Spinning a chance of romance on the love wheel
Even if it's just a casual thing,
Sometimes a Platonic relationship can turn ironic
Anyhow it took a while to get physical
But see that made the conversation better
I wrote no love letters, e-mailed her twice a week
She thought I was unique and sweet
And thought that I would never cheat
But little did she know, I had another ho on the side
Who treated me better so on the low we'd creep and we'd hide
When I decide who to call for sho she gets the first choice
And that's mostly because I love the sound of her voice
She likes to run track in the background
When I'm down her company I seek
Sometimes she even sings me to sleep
Just like a lullaby, why did my friend betray a brother
Loving you, is killing me
When you know it should be thrilling me
Loving you, is choking me slowly
When I'm with you i still feel real lowly
Loving you, is busting me
You don't ever put your trust in me
Loving you,should mean that I'm your king
You don't make me feel like anything
CHORUS
Now i never knew you'd be so evil
How did you get to be so evil yeah
Now you telling me, that I'm bad to you
You don't know what your talking 'bout girl
Hear me when i say
You can't just do whatever you want, girl
VERSE
Loving you, is killing me
When you know it should fulfill me
Loving you, is aching me sadly
You know that it should make me happy
Loving you is like a twisted game
Where the only thing I win is pain
Loving you, is hutin' me
Every word you say, you murder me
BRIDGE
Stop children, whats that sound
Looking my heart all over the ground
Stop children, what' you see
Why you keep shootin' at me
CHORUS
I never knew you'd be so evil
How did you get to be so evil yeah
Now you telling me, that I'm bad to you
You don't know what your talking 'bout girl
Hear me when i say
You can't just do whatever you want, girl
BRIDGE
Loving you
Is killing me
Is killing me
Loving you
Is killing me
Is killing me yeah
VERSE
Loving you, is killing me
When you know it should be building me
Loving you, is holding me back
Why the hell you make me feel like that
Loving you, ain't worth all the suff'ring
In return you never give me nothing
Here's the news about loving you
Well it's something that i used to do
CHORUS
I never knew you'd be so evil
How did you get to be so evil yeah
Now you telling me, that I'm bad to you
You don't know what your talking 'bout girl
Hear me when i say
[Chorus]
[Verse 1:]
The key to everything, everybody here in America
Is the money.
Some say that it's the root of all evil;
Brings wars and other cells of upheaval.
Leaves family in the streets with nothing to eat;
Little baby boys and girls
No shoes on their feet;
All the men who leave home dying in the war zones
And the women do it all they own.
It reminds me of the ghettos right here
And the hoods that I see,
Everywhere that I've been in the is country.
Stop bailing out the banks and give the Franklins to me
I guess my piece of the pie ain't free, can you free.
Ooooh
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
He don't care and she don't care;
They both got brand new clothes to wear
And they ain't worry
Cause they don't know
What it's like to be left out in the snow
The dirt
The filth
The gutter
The grime
The pain
The strain
The hustle
The climb
The struggle to fight
The conflict
The crime
I don't bye that line that it's nature's design
You different,
You ugly,
You evil
You wrong
You stupid
You dumb
Your mind ain't too strong
Your daddy ain't from here
So you don't belong
And the list goes on and on and on and on...
[Verse 1:]
If I sang a song
Would you sing with me?
Said if I sang a song
Song, would you sing with me?
If I danced a step
Would you dance with me?
(Dance with me)
If I shed a tear
Would you cry with me?
And if I told a lie
Would you fall with me
[Chorus:]
All of these things I do for you
Give me a chance
To prove to you
My love is true
[Verse 2:]
If I had to go
Would you leave with me?
Said if I had to go
Go, would you leave with me?
If I had no food
Would you cook for me?
(Cook for me)
If I told a joke
Would you laugh with me?
And if I asked for you to change
Would you change for me?
[Chorus]
All of these things I do for you,
Give me a chance
To prove to you
All of these things I do for you
Give me a chance to prove to you
My love is true
[Verse 3:]
If I had to die
Would you pray for me?
If I had to die
Sometimes people say things
that they don't really mean.
They just might call you names
to lift their self esteem.
But soon enough, they'll realize
that it'll never work.
Because inside they're trying to hide
how much they really hurt.
But as long as you know who you are
and what you're about
Nothing they say can shake your pride
and make you doubt
The beauty you have in you
and when they give attitude
you can tell them like this.
Say, I'm beautiful and spiritual
and I think it's about time to tell you this.
I'm gonna be the best me
that I know how to be.
One day you learn how much it means
to believe in yourself.
So take these words and share these words
to help somebody else.
You never know. Anything's possible.
You just might make a friend.
So when they try to make you cry,
tell them again and again.
Say it like this- I'm beautiful and spiritual
and I think it's about time to tell you this.
I'm gonna be the best me
that I know how to be.
Say it again my brother- I'm beautiful
and spiritual and I think it's about time
to tell you this. I'm gonna be the best me
that I know how to be.

And all I want - is for someone - to help meee
I had a job but the boss man let me go
He said
''I'm sorry but I won't be needing your help no more''
I said

But he gave me my last paycheck and he sent me on out the door
Chorus:

Hey there, brother, watch your little lady

Hey there brother, watch your little momma

She's just using you like a comb
Now don't you think it's wrong
Hey there brother, hey there brother
Oooh, hey there brother
Look what she's doing to you
Hey there brother
She's playing you for a fool
Something special happened today

(Ohhh I)
Hey lady, don't you remember you was my lover you was my friend.
Hey sister, I know you remember you left me a long night wanting back in.
Hey mama, don't you here me? I can be a sucker for your love.
Hey girlfriend, I understand it is what it is and it was what is was.
And ever since you've been gone, it's been a lot of good things going on.
And ever since you left that day, it's been a lot of good things going my way.
What can I say? The clouds done rolled away.
What can I say? Ain't nomore rainy days.
I'll tell you, when you left me I thought I would never love again.
Because you had me all confused and twisted up inside, I thought it was something that I did.
Oh honey, you wouldn't wanna know what was going on inside my head!
Now everything is fine, you're out of my mind.
I'm able to love myself instead.
Ever since you've been gone, it's been a lot of good things are going on.
Ever since you left that day, it's been a lot of good things are going my way. What more can I say? The clouds done rolled away.
What more can I say? Ain't nomore rainy days!
Now, don't you wish you wouldve stayed?
Look at the good things, good things that I've made.
I'm better without you, ever since you ran away.
Been a lot of good things, good things everyday.
Ever since you've been gone.
Been a lot of good things, good things going on.
Ever since you left that day, it's been a lot of good things good things come my way!
Here she comes, you better watch your step
She's going to break your heart in two, it's true
It's not hard to realize
Just look into her false colored eyes
She builds you up to just put you down, what a clown
'Cause everybody knows (she's a femme fatale)
The things she does to please (she's a femme fatale)
She's just a little tease (she's a femme fatale)
See the way she walks
Hear the way she talks
You're written in her book
You're number 37, have a look
She's going to smile to make you frown, what a clown
Little boy, she's from the street
Before you start, you're already beat
She's gonna play you for a fool, yes it's true
'Cause everybody knows (she's a femme fatale)
The things she does to please (she's a femme fatale)
She's just a little tease (she's a femme fatale)
See the way she walks
What does it feel like to do everything you can
For the woman that you love just to be a better man
It feels something like a fat slap in the face
From the woman that you love when she getting on your case
About who you call and who you hanging with
About who when why where what and it
Get on your nerves 'cause you don't need this mess
Get on your nerves 'cause you don't need this stress
Be on your mind all the time like pay checks
Be on your mind all the time like safe sex
Pissing you off 'cause she know you's a grown man
Pissing you off 'cause she don't seem to understand
You need space but she taking up all the room
She sucking up all your space like a vacuum
Just do what I do tell her like this come here
You don't gotta go home, but you can't stay here
Oh, oh, when you go
I will not stop you
You aint got to go home
But you can't stay here
In particular allow me to explain something
I was trying to be with this lady but she stayed fronting
Spending my money and asking me for this and that
But when I needed money she don't wanna give back
To the cause I had to pause and reflect on it
-But I just let it slide though
Because it felt so good to have her in my ride though
She was the ring master I was just a sideshow
More like a clown but dig the way it went down
I found she was sleeping 'round when I went out of town
I didn't call her for weeks, she hit me up fretting
I told her take your new freak and get to half stepping
She called her cousin told her cousin I was really buggin
She brought her cousin to my house look what the cat drug in
A little pip squeak weak like a wet twig
I told him come back when you get big then I told her
That's the way it is and the way it has to be
It's about time I let me look after me
It could never be ever after happily
Wanna live my dreams
This is the last chance to make it, I gotta do something
With my life today
'Cause I been doing this music thing for so long it seems that
Something's gotta give
If I'ma stay on this long road to success
With the music I play
So I just gotta be strong and keep moving on with it
I'm not just a dreamer, I'm an intellectual coal mine
With refined rhymes like diamonds that shine
On the daily I grind, grit my teeth and push mountains full of words
With a pen to make you see clearly my troubles
All of my trifles the pressures that try to stifle
If life was holding a rifle to my head, my last thoughts would be
Simply to let my music reach to every country
Where scholars will translate it on scrolls and archive it
Where students in the classrooms of history relive it
Relive it, Because I write the words and I give it away
After it leaves my hand to the ink on the papyrus
And after I been on the stage and let the lyric fathom bust
It all belongs to y'all, that's all end of story on it
Dropping like a bomb on the planet it's the verbal atomic
Aloe Blacc remember me as enemy or friend
However you want, it doesn't really matter in the end
They say it's gonna stop
Got people telling me I'm wasting my time and that
Hip Hop's going away
I don't believe it though all my life I seen it grow so I
Don't believe a word
That I be hearing from all the haters and perpetrators
So everything they say
Is just a bucket lies to get me out the way
This is my life's work, my contribution as a public speaker
With knowledge to share and thoughts to digest
One of the freshest in the land of the west
While most niggaz measure success with the ice on they chest
I measure it with message and who spit it the best
Follow the quest like I'm the last man searching for a companion
Because when I'm dead and gone my books will still be standing
From my arial approach landing, seeing it all
Still waiting for the so-called stars to fall
Out of the polluted skies full of California dreams
People running at full speed and running out of the steam
A sparkling gleam in the eye of hopeful brothas wanting to eat
More than just the regular lunch meat, we trying to feast
On the fruits of the earth and give generous
But really men are just animals and like cannibals we been in lust
To see another man hit the dust (dust, dust)
Can't nobody tell me what to do,
'cause I am gonna do what I want to do
This is just my way of life and
Come on bus
Come on bus
Come on bus
Are you coming here for me?
Come on bus
Come on bus
Come on bus
There's somewhere I gotta be
See I've been waiting for this bus
I've been waiting for this bus for such a long time
Now I don't know if it will ever show
Guess I might as well just take another line
See I'm late
I gotta date
I need to get myself down town by quarter to 3
And I don't know
If this bus gonna show
I don't know if it's gonna show on time for me
Come on bus
Come on bus
Come on bus
Are you coming here for me
Come on bus
Come on bus
Come on bus
There's somewhere I gotta be
There's my bus
I'm about to go, I'm about to go right to where I gotta be
There's my bus, I'm about to go
There's my bus.
What is the world coming to?
The way I feel about my life right now is as if I don’t
Do something quick that I might end up sick or
homicidal
Appreciate the blessings lingering in my bravado
Administrate the lessons I’m singing in my recital
Give it another title, call it the daily bread
A special formula you fix to get the baby fed
Its brain food the kind they ooze into a baby’s head
So he won’t be misled and when the baby’s dead
Bury him where they buried Terry cause to grow a tree
They cutting down the rainforest looking for space to
free up
And paving paradise with parking lots where buildings
be up
What is the world coming to? It’s really messing me up
I got a brand new nephew in about a year,
His lungs will be older than he his from the cloudy air
Not saying cloudy like the molecules of H20
I’m talking bout the factories and fumes whatever you
know
And every time I’m driving I’m thinking I’m such a culo
My contribution of pollution isn’t very cool though
But what am I to do though? I got to work to live
And if I happen to be living where my working is
Then will I ever learn to suffer through it for my kids
One day I’ll have a baby but first I need a lady
And will I give her all my time and will she really
love me
And will she give me shelter when the storms are up
above me
I know sometimes it be my personality is ugly
And no amount of make up can make up for that
But know I recognize the game and when I’m up to bat
I’m gonna put a little change into the thinking cap
Because to change the world you gotta change your mind
We can’t go on living wrong inside of the same design
It gotta be that you and me agree to make a difference
Put up a canvas and manipulate the color pigments
To paint a portrait of tomorrow full of broader
figments
In your imagination could you imagine nations?
Have peace and harmony instead of genocidal warring
Where borders don’t exist and nobody’s considered
foreign
Mother Earth is respected animals are protected
Society perfected Capitalism rejected
What is the world coming to? Almost the end of us
And it’s the evils in the world today we tend to trust
How could let the ashes crumble till they come to dust
I guess that’s what is meant to happen if you’re blind
enough
If you ready for what is coming then come on with me
Follow my voice if you can hear it let the song lift me
Into the graces of Heaven’s hugs
To learn love’s embrace and share with every beautiful
face
I place my right hand on my heart and say let me be the
start
I pound my fist on my chest and request allow me to be
the test
And when I’m at my best I can make a Catholic priest
confess
Cause guilt is worse than the parasite in his flesh
And the flesh is weak but the pride is strong
And it can make a little lie last a little bit longer
than
It was ever intended by whoever intended to send it
Watch the evil manifest that it rendered
And I hope you remembered your place in this
Look up at a shooting star go head and make a wish
Hopefully it will be granted by the gods
Against all odds you’ll be wise enough to see through
the facades
What is the world coming to? I wish I had an answer
Better than seeing human beings as a living cancer
Better than being what I’m seeing hope I Have a chance
Raise the consciousness Peace Ya’ll and god bless the
This is dedicated to the number one thing in my life
So close to me that you could call it my wife
It's dedicated to the one that I wake with and sleep with
Every morning I get up and I brush my teeth with
Even when I'm watching the thundercats and heathcliff
Eating my rice crispies in the living room seat with
Battle with and when it's time to split blaze a saddle with,
If we was out in the midwest I'd tip cattle with
The one I sip tea with and used to climb trees with
Dedicated to the one I fell out of them trees with
One love to the thing that kept me most out of trouble
Invested time and effort and it paid back double
I dedicate this to the culture and people and the music
The b-boys, the b-girls, graffiti and the movement
Dedicated to the old school it just don't stop
This is a dedication to hip hop
When I was just a snot nose youngin runnin around
They called me little rock, the dopest little b-boy in town
We had a crew we used to be putting linolium down
We battle for beef but always leave the street with a pound
Taking the crown for the fame and representing the name
Late night meet at the tracks to rock the Santa Fe train
Pull out your sketch or freestyle it if you think you got game
Find a spot to claim or cap a sucka toy if it's lame
Don't even wait for it to dry just take a flick and be out quick
Make it to Unity before the line gets too thick
Back in the day it used to be a Lincoln just to get in
Nowadays you lucky if less then ten
Meet my boys on the inside greet them with hip hop salutations
Made up of hand shake combinations
Looking for the spot where the circle is formulating
The true essence a symbol of the hip hop nation.
I don't know what life would be like without hip hop
Without the kick and the snare with out the pop lock
Without the chirp and the flare without the up rock
Without the fist pump and head bop when dope beats drop
I don't know what I would do without a microphone
Without the underground spots and feedback tones
Without the bus without my walkman and my headphones
Without the different crews that be representing in every zone
I don't know what I would be without the culture
Without graffiti scribbled on desks, books, and folders
Without the stickers and t-shirts and posters
Without the battle between east and west coasters
I don't know where we would be without the beat box
Without the Yes yall, and you don't stop
Without the way we dress and walk, the way we talk
Hum, oh no
I've been living in fear not knowing where to turn
My world is getting small when you think love is near
Somebody is there to tell you that your changing
Though I can't seem to explain, just why I can't get over
That you're gone away to a better place
'Cause there's no one I can turn to
No one I can call
Nobody to catch me when I fall
Took my days with you for granted
I'd give up everything to see your face for one more day
Though you're part of my existence
But I'm going to walk your walk
And never let your memory fade
Shouldn't cry when I miss you
If you were here
You wouldn't tolerate me feelin' in pain
Callin' out your name
'Cause there's no one I can turn to
No one I can call
Nobody to catch me when I fall
So why do the days keep on, passing me by
You were my inspiration, in you I confide
But I know that you need me to try 'cause you never quit
And would have a fit if I cried all night
Oh no
Shouldn't cry when I miss you
If you were here
You wouldn't tolerate me feelin' in pain
Callin' out your name
'Cause there's no one I can turn to
No one I can call
Nobody to catch me when I fall
No one I can call
Nobody to catch me when I fall
So I'm sending this prayer up you,
I know you can hear me from there
Sitting next to God's chair
You're my angel watching over
I only wish I could see you, feel you, say I love you
Through the raging fire, I never lost my sight
Hey, oh yeah, hurricane's around me
I never lost my sight, hey, oh yeah
I keep walkin', I keep walkin', 'cross the battlefields
Till I'm rollin', till I'm rollin' on a burnin wheel
Keep on knocking, keep on knocking off the enemy
Till I'm closin', till I'm closin' in
On victory if you're ask'in', if you're askin'
Where I'm headed for
Well, you ain't felt the kind of love I had before
I keep drivin', I keep drivin' through the poundin' rain
Till I'm drownin', till I'm drownin' in your love again
Through the raging fire, I never lost my sight
Hey, oh yeah, tangled in the wires
I never lost my fight, ho, hey, hey
Through the raging fire, I never lost my sight
Hey, oh yeah, hurricane's around me
I never lost my sight, hey, oh yeah
I keep walkin', I keep walkin' 'cross the battlefields
Till I'm rollin', till I'm rollin' on a burnin' wheel
Keep on knocking, keep on knocking off the enemy
Till I'm closin, till I'm closin' in
On victory if you're askin', if you're askin'
Where I'm headed for
Well, you ain't felt the kind of love I had before
I keep drivin', I keep drivin' through the poundin' rain
Till I'm drownin', till I'm drownin' in your love again
Can't shake me, can't shake me 'cause I know you want it
Can't shake me, can't shake me 'cause I know you want it
Can't shake me, can't shake me 'cause I know you want it
Can't shake me, can't shake me 'cause I know you want it
Through the raging fire I never lost my sight
Sacrificed desire, I never lost my fight
Through the ragin' fire I never lost my sight
Through the raging fire I never lost my sight
Sacrificed desire, I never lost my fight
Through the ragin' fire I never lost my sight
Through the raging fire I never lost my sight
Sacrificed desire, I never lost my fight
Through the ragin' fire I never lost my sight
I feel deceived and I cannot breath
I wanna leave but I seem to freeze
Cold heartless from the start
No love left, in the heart
I'm addicted, now I'm evicted
From this lonely [unverified]
You were drunk I didn't see
Just an addict who you meet
It's not real, no more fears
I just cannot disappear
I'm a reflection of your tears
It's your boy, and I need you near
I can't shake these lonely nights
I don't care whose wrong or right
But I know it's time to leave
When I feel we cannot breathe
I can't breathe
The other day you told me that I was your girl
I took a chance and I entered your world
Thought you were the one until you took away my pride
Now I realize, I have to pay the price
You weren't good for me
You weren't good for me
You took, took away my sanity
You weren't good for me
You weren't good for me
You took, took away my sanity
I can't breathe
(I just can't let you breathe)
I can't breathe
(I just can't let you breathe)
I was so mad, I had to get a knife
Think I'm going crazy, I think I should think twice
It ain't worth my life and it ain't worth
The things I wanted from you
I just don't know
What's he gonna do? What's he gonna say?
I had my way, now your way
I'm in pain
You weren't good for me
You weren't good for me
You took, took away my sanity
You weren't good for me
You weren't good for me
You took, took away my sanity
I can't breathe
(I just can't let you breathe)
I can't breathe
(I just can't let you breathe)
Hum, walking an' talking
Thinking about the life I lived
It's me alone, me against the world
It's me alone, me against the world
It's me alone, me against the world
It's me alone, me against the world
You weren't good for me
You weren't good for me
You took, took away my sanity
You weren't good for me
You weren't good for me
You took, took away my sanity
I can't breathe
(I just can't let you breathe)
I can't breathe
Where did I go wrong?
Is it something that that I said?
My opinions went unnoticed
My emotions overfed
So what if I change the phase
What dreams shouldn't I've liked
I'm supporting my ambitions
My soul, my light
Got to pass the intersection
I went left, when you went right
Delivering a purpose, I'm living out my life
Just me and my decision, a million reasons why I had to fight
Just me and my decision, a million reasons
I'm a girl, I'm a lady, I'm a woman, I'm a queen
I'm everything I can dream
I'm a girl, I'm a lady, I'm a woman, I'm a queen
I'm everything I can dream
Everything I can be
Everything that I see
Everything that completes
Everything, I am me
I'm a girl, I'm a lady, I'm a woman, I'm a queen
I'm everything I can dream
I'm a girl, I'm a lady, I'm a woman, I'm a queen
I'm everything I can dream
Everything I can be
Everything that I see
Everything that completes
