Giovanni "Gianni" Alemanno (born 3 March 1958 in Bari, Italy) is an Italian politician who is currently Mayor of Rome.
He joined the neofascist Italian Social Movement, at a very early age and became national secretary of the youth organization of the party in 1988. After being elected regional deputy of Lazio in 1990, he was elected for the first time to the Chamber of Deputies in the 1994 general election.
In 1995, along with Francesco Storace, he founded the Social Right, which was intended to be the more right-wing, socially oriented and socially conservative faction within National Alliance, the new party in which the Italian Social Movement was merged after repudation of extremism.
Between 2001 and 2006, Alemanno was Minister of Agriculture in Berlusconi II and III Cabinet.
After having been heavily defeated by Walter Veltroni in the 2006 mayoral election of Rome, in April 2008 he defeated Francesco Rutelli and became Mayor of the city. Alemanno rejected a formal alliance with the far-right party, but his critics emphasized that his victory was greeted by crowds of supporters, among them far right skinheads, who chanted "Duce! Duce!" and raised their arms in a fascist salute; then Alemanno said: «People calling me Duce makes me laugh. I’m not at all fascist and I think that today the word belongs to the history books. I’ve grown to hate all forms of totalitarianism, whether of the left or of the right».
You were my everything
You were my everything
The reason why I hoped and dreamed
You and I are a story untold
And now your gone
And my hearts turned cold
Words can't describe
How I feel inside
With a heart so small
Don't feel sorry for me
Don't you feel guilty
Since you moved on
Internally he murdered me
My emotions bleed no more
I'll have chills at night
Probably till I die
And feel a love reborn cause...
You were my everything
You were my everything
The reason why I hoped and dreamed
You and I are a story untold
And now your gone
And my hearts turned cold
Emotionally I was confused
But only for a second there
Was I fooled
Gave you all of me
Every part of me
Even sacrificed my precious jewel
Then you patiently chipped away at me
Using your words as tools
And I compromised my identity
And gave into me
Just to play by your rules
You, you were my everything
You were my everything
The reason why I hoped and dreamed
You and I are a story untold
And now your gone
And my hearts turned cold
Now that I'm free
I can release all that I have in me
All that I've held in for so long
Won't let that keep me from moving on
Now that I'm free
I can release all that I have in me
All that I've held in for so long
Won't let that keep me from moving on
Words of advice
Speak from your heart
Let the truth see you through
Cause what goes around
Always comes around
And this could be you singing...
You were my everything
You were my everything
The reason why I hoped and dreamed
You and I are a story untold
And now your gone
And my hearts turned cold
Cause you were my evrything
The reason why I hoped and dreamed
You and I are a story untold
And now your gone
And my hearts turned cold
[Verse 1:]
I need to talk to you
Let's make it last (oh let's make it last)
Embrace what we talked about
Don't wanna look back
And see what I've been without
Now I've made up my mind
To make this work with you
Cause you and no one else, feels me like you do
See my father knew best when he said a man should fight for me
And baby I'm gonna do whatever feels right for me
You hey you you you
You you you you
[Verse 2:]
Darling I know it's hard
With this long distance and all
But I'm tired of writing you with this pen
Can't let her talk on the phone again
Why can't we go back to how things used to be
You would look in my eyes and tell me that you love me
See my Mama knew best when she said that you were right for me
And I'm gonna do whatever feels right for me
Darling I'll fight for you
I'll fight for you; you and you and you and only you... you
[Break down:]
Forget climbing mountains, I'm flying home to you
Girl there just ain't no way
There just ain't no way, I can live without you
Smile, though your heart is aching, smile,
Even though it's breaking
When there are clouds, in the sky you'll get by
If you smile, through all fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face, with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
[Chorus:]
Although a tear maybe ever so near
Cause that's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worth while
If you, you just smile
[Chorus]
Smile, darling baby, smile
Sir Greendown
Come wake me in the night
The dragon wants a bite
Of our love
The flower and the golden hand
Wooden wings and clouds of sand
Sir Greendown
Let's leave in an hour
Meet me at the tower
Ride your horse
Here the dolphins walk like men
Here the cyborgs have a plan
Sir Greendown
I need your shining light
Let's leave in an hour
Meet me at the tower
Early late at night
I wander off into a land
You can go, but you mustn't tell a soul
There's a world inside
Where dreamers meet each other
Once you go it's hard to come back
Let me paint your canvas as you dance
Dance in the trees
Paint mysteries
The magnificent droid plays there
Your magic mind
Makes love to mine
I think I'm a love angel
Take me back to Wondaland
I gotta get back to Wondaland
Take her back to Wondaland
She thinks her left her underpants
The grass grows inside
The music floats you gently on your toes
Touch the nose, he'll change our clothes to tuxedos
Don't freak and hide
I'll be your secret santa, you be mine
Don't resist
The fairygods will have a fit
We should dance
Dance in the trees
Paint mysteries
The magnificent droid plays there
Your magic mind
Makes love to mine
I think I'm a love angel
Take me back to Wondaland
I gotta get back to Wondaland
Take her back to Wondaland
She thinks her left her underpants
This is your land
This is my land
We belong here
Stay the night
I am so inspired
You touched my wires
My supernova shining bright
Take me back to Wondaland
I gotta get back to Wondaland
Take her back to Wondaland
She thinks her left her underpants
I'm an alien from outer space (outer space)
I'm a cybergirl without a face a heart or a mind
(a product of metal, I'm a product of the man)
See see see I'm a slave girl without a race (without a race)
On the run cause they hate our ways and chase my kind
They've come to destroy me
And I think to myself
(Impossibly, they're gunning for me)
Wait, it's impossible
Now they're gunning for me (and the Pawn is after you)
And now they're after you (For loving, too)
And all the sirens go dooodooo
(Sirens go doodoodooodoo doodooodoodoooo...)
Doodooooo doodoooo doodooooo
Ohhh baby! Ooh, you know the rules
I love you and I won't take no for an answer
hey say that Violet Stars will set you free (set you free)
When you're running lost and alone (Follow them down)
Up Neon Valley streets (up Neon Valley streets)
A pretty day makes a pretty picture (pretty picture)
But fall in love and they're coming to getcha
Who knew 10 men with guns were at the door (at the door)
The droid control!
(Impossibly, they're gunning for me)
Wait, that's impossible that they're gunning for me (and now the Pawn is after you)
And now they're after you (for loving, too)
Baby, I hear the sirens go dooodooooo
(Sirens go doodoodooodoo doodooodoodoooo...)
Doodooooo doodoooo doodooooo
Come on Baby, 'cause here they come now (You know the rules)
[whispering]
[[ [Sounds of escape and chase]

["Alllll my cyboys and cybergirls! Get Up if you gon' get Down! Citizens, pull your pants UP, and cyborgs pull your pants Down! Down yo' ankles and show yo' rust, shake yo' chain - you know it's a must! Now, oh, uh, Cindy Mayweather: get on up here and just... baby, lemme just see ya Squeak!"] ]]
And I love my baby so (Impossibly, they're gunning for me)
I said I love my baby so (and now the Pawn is after you)
And he loves me too (for loving, too)
He loves me too, he loves me too!
(Sirens go doodoodooodoo doodooodoodoooo...)
Doooodoooodooooo...

(Impossibly, they're gunning for me, and now the Pawn is after you for loving, too)
(Sirens go doodoodooodoo doodooodoodoooo...)
Oh, oh, oh, OWW!
What can I do to make you feel secure, remove all your doubts
So that you'll know for sure that you're the apple of my eye girl
Fulfillment of my dreams, time, will show the value
Of just what you mean to me
More precious than silver, more precious than diamond rings
Or anything that I can give you, it wouldn't mean a thing
If you didn't have my love beside you there to guide you through
But it is good to know you do
I know just how you feel
But this time love's for real
In time it will reveal
That special love that's deep inside of us will all reveal in time
I tell you I love you but you won't believe it's true
More precious than silver, more precious than diamond rings
Or anything that I can give you, it wouldn't mean a thing
If you didn't have my love beside you there to guide you through
But it is good to know you do, aah
I know just how you feel
But this time love's for real
In time it will reveal
That special love that's deep inside of us will all reveal in time
I know just how you feel
But this time love's for real
In time it will reveal
That special love that's deep inside of us will all reveal in time
Say it baby, yeah babe
Or anything that I can give you, it wouldn't mean a thing
If you didn't have my love beside you there to guide you through
But it is good to know you do
I know just how you feel
But this time love's for real
In time it will reveal
That special love that's deep inside of us will all reveal in time
I know just how you feel
But this time love's for real
In time it will reveal
Hey oh, that special lovin' arms will all reveal in time
I know just how you feel
So let you're little heart lay down my body
In time it will reveal

You can be a star [x3]
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
Just believe and you can do it girl
As a little girl
There was so many things I wanted to be
The big stage the attention of the crowd
Had always inspired me
So every night when I knelled down to pray
I'd ask the lord to make me a star one day
Then a voice said
You can be a star [x3]
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
Just believe and you can do it oh girl
As time went on
I let doubt get the best of me
Saying you just a country girl
And being a star is only in your dreams
That night my mother set me down to say
Have faith the world will know who you are one day
She told me
You can be a star [x3]
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
Just believe and you can do it girl
Is it worth it?
I don't know
That life isn't perfect
Ooh I don't know
Things will get worse if
You become a star
Won't somebody help me out right now?
Is it worth it?
Tell me
That life isn't perfect
Left me know
Things will get worse if
You become a star
Ooh if I become a star
So many broken promises
In writing to the top
Expectations of who I should be
Changed how I see this industry
So I learned
Follow my heart and go with my soul
Stay true to me and never lose sight of my goals
You can be a star [x3]
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
Just believe and you can do it girl
You can be a star [x3]
Oh you can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
Left the city, my mama, she said don't come back home.
These kids round killing each other, they lost their
minds, they gone.
They quitting school, making babies, and can barely
read,
Some gone on to their fall,
Lord have mercy on them.
1,2,3,4, your cousin's here round here selling dope,
While they daddy, your uncle, is working round, strung
out.
Babies with babies, and they just keep burning,
While their dreams go down the drain now.
(While their dreams go down the drain now)
Are we really living, or just walking dead now
(Are we walking dead now?)
Or dreaming of the hopes round in the wings of angels
The way we live, the way we die,
What a tragedy, I'm so terrified.
Daydreamers please wake up,
We can't sleep no more.
Love, don't make no sense,
Ask your neighbour,
The winds have changed, it seems,
That they've abandoned us.
The truth hurts, and so does yesterday
What good is love, if it burns bright explosion flames
(I thought every living thing had love, but are)
Are we really living, or just walking dead now.
(Are we walking dead now?)
Or dreaming of the hopes round in the wings of angels.
The way we live, the way we die,
What a tragedy, I'm so terrified.
Daydreamers please wake up,
We can't sleep no more.
I've seen them shooting up funerals in their sunday
clothes (Ya!)
And spending money on spinners, but won't pay college
funds (Ya!)
And all you gangers and bangers,
Rolling dice and taking lives in a smoky dark
Lord have mercy on them (Ya!)
Teacher, teacher, please reach those girls in them
videos (Live your life)
The little girl's just broke, and queens's confusing
bling for soul.
Danger, there's danger,
When you take off your clothes,
All your dreams go down the drain, girl.
Are we really living, or just walking dead now
Or dreaming of the hopes round in the wings of angels
The way we live, the way we die
What a tragedy, I'm so terrified
Daydreamers please wake up,
We can't sleep no more.
**Scratching Begins**
Lord have mercy
Have mercy
Have mercy
Lord have mercy
Are really living, or just walking dead now
Have mercy

We live, then we die,
And we never know, thats why
So young, now we're gone
Now are you gone?
We live, then we die,
But never touch the sky
So young, now we're gone
Now are you gone?
Spoken Section:
5,7,8,2,1.
Its now time for you to come home, my dear.
You've been gone long enough.
Thank you.
Good morning twilight.
Not a star in the sky.
Lost without my baby
And I just don't know why.
A lonely night on Peachtree
Clubs are closed (it's only three)
Dreary weather on my mind
I think it's raining all the time.
Visions of you in havana
'round my head like dragonfly.
(sigh) it makes my heart sigh.
Since my baby left me
All I can do is cry.
Lonely night on Peachtree.
Woo. It's Saturday. I'm bout to go out. Oh, I cannot wait.
(I'm getting ready)
Just got me a new outfit. So fresh so clean
(I'm getting ready)
Jump in the shower.
Grab my towel and put my V. secrets on.
(I'm getting ready)
And brush my teeth cuz I'm almost ready to roll.
(I'm getting ready)
Hook
I know I should focus on my school work.
I shouldn't feel the way I do, but I do.
My friends all said that he would be there.
And plus I look real cute.
(I'm getting ready)
I heard the clubs in Atlanta are the sickest...the sickest.
(I'm getting ready)
And now it's time for me to pay a visit...a visit.
I know I won't wake up in time for Sunday
To be in Sunday school...in Sunday school.
I really hope this boy is cool.
Chorus
It's time I fought for love.
I know he'll be there waiting.
Four hundred girls in the room
And I am all he sees.
Enough debating.
I'm sick and tired of waiting.
I grab my petticoat and my ID.
My friends are waiting
Eagerly anticipating.
Gotta get there before midnight cuz it's free.
My heart starts beating fast as we pull closer.
No turning back girl now you've gotta know.
No turning back right now I've gotta know.
(Know, oh, oh)
Well, girl there he is
There's your boy
Can't you see
I bet he's looking around tryna find you
I can't believe I'm here tonight
But wrong or right
I refuse to act scared and ignore you
My heart starts beating fast as you walk over
(oooooooo)
You got me feeling tipsy but I'm sober
(sober...er...er)
Chorus
It's time I fought for love.
I know he'll be there waiting.
Four hundred girls in the room
And I am all he sees.
It's time I fought for love.
I know he'll be there waiting .
Four hundred girls in the room
And I am all he needs.
(Phone rings 2x's)
Hello?
Hey.
Girl. I just woke up
Girl, naw, I had one of the craziest dreams.
I know he's gonna be there. (I know I should focus on my school work)
Scandalous? Girl I am not scandalous. (I shouldn't feel the way I do, but I do) I have a test Tuesday and I cannot miss church tomorrow.
(My friends all said that he would be there.)
No, I told everybody I was coming and I'm gon' be there. (And plus I look real cute)
Listen. Girl, bye. I love you. I will talk to you later. (I know I won't wake up in time for Sunday) Have a good one. Be careful. (To be in Sunday school'in Sunday school)
Bye. Girl, bye. Call me tomorrow after church.
(And when the world just treats you wrong
Just come with me and I'll take you home
No need to pack a bag
Who put your life in the danger zone?
You running dropping like a rolling stone
No need to pack a bag
You just can't stop your hurt from hanging on
The old man dies and then a baby's born
Chan, chan, chan, change your life
And when the world just treats you wrong
Just come with me and I'll take you home
Shan, shan shan shan-gri la
My favorite nothing loved me so
And I'd trick him, he'd treat me
In the end I let go
I never found him worth my time
How selfish, when he'd give his life for mine
He even tried to make a new start
Around the time I said we needed time apart
I knew that sticks and stones would break your bones
But I didn't know my words would break your heart
I can't believe love just passed me by
I can't believe I just looked love right in the eyes
I can't believe love just passed me by
I can't believe love just passed me by
See I've been hurt too many times before
I thought that you were going to hurt me too
Love lifts me up then brings me down, down, down
I really wish you were around (and now you're gone)
I never gave you what was due you
I ended up just doing me
I wanted to apologize to you
But now it's too late
Because you're six feet under me
I met a boy one day
Messed up and broke his heart
He won't come back to me
He's so far gone, you see
I can't believe love just passed me by
I can't believe I just looked love right in the eyes
I can't believe love just passed me by
I can't believe love just passed me by
See I've been hurt too many times before
I thought that you were going to hurt me too
Your love lifts me up and then it brings me down
This song is for my mama,
This song is for you.
Hey Mr. President,
Tomorrow I'm paying my rent
My Fuel is runnin' low
And I've got places to go
Quit slowin' me down
Can we talk about the education of our children?
A book is worth more than a bomb any day
And remember a mirror to Africa
Who will bring the cure before it's too late.
Don't you see the hurt in their eyes?
So much disappointment in many faces
Use your heart and not your pride
We can't go on and keep pretending
Please Mr. President
Where's all the money you spent,
Food is fallin low
And they have nowhere to go,
Quit slowin me down.
I ask you to have mercy on us father,
You think we know the rules by now,
We can't go starting wars with hearts of hatred
Out nations greed won't make it better
Or quiet the fears in our hearts
Don't you see the hurt in their eyes?
So much Disappointment in all of their faces
Use your heart and not your pride
We can't go on and keep pretending
O please Mr. President
Dear Mr. President
I hope you got the letter I sent
A Dollar only goes so far
And we need help here, no matter who we are
See we come from different worlds and different places
Until there's one great land, one nation under god,
Times are getting harder and we need you to be like Moses
And lead your people through
Please be careful, Be Careful,
View a sky without any blue.
Breakfast on incandescent, built to chew.
Dream to find another world
Where a cyborg can love and a cyber girl is still a queen.
[Chorus:]
Where there's no law,
Tying my heart from the start.
Where there's no war, if my dreams run a little wild,
But if there's no call from joy control
Warning me against this disease in my heart.
Freein' my soul.
Population 10 zillion and six
Where signs say, "Welcome to the Star Core Metropolis."
Me, I live on the wired side of town,
Reaching and searching for a space called paradise found.
[Chorus:]
Where there's no law
Tying my heart from the start.
Where there's no war, if my dreams run a little wild,
But if there's no call from joy control
Warning me against this disease in my heart.
Freein' my soul.
And it's a common thought
That wired folk can be sold and bought.
That we have no feelings no memories or minds,
That we're bionic strumpets only worth a dime.
To some it's a surprise when I smile.
And when I hold your hand, they say,
"How can a wired thing understand?
Love is too deep; it's too wide to feel
When your soul is a button
And your foot glows in heels."
Program. Program. Reprogram.
One nation, under a microchip.
Neon slaves, electric savages,
Open your hearts. Open your eyes. Your chariot will arrive.
Hey, Anthony Greendown from sector nine. (From sector nine)
With beautiful eyes
I've served you now about thirty-eight times.
Thirty-eight times I've looked in those eyes.
You see me laughing, the love when I hold your hand,
I wanna take you, take you with me to another land.
[Chorus:]
Where there's no law
Tying my heart from the start.
Where there's no war, if my dreams run a little wild,
But if there's no call from joy control.
No call.
Please go with me.
Oh come with me.
I need you.
Let's leave. Let's leave.
Good Morning Cy-boys and Cyber Girls!
I'm happy to announce that we have a star cross winner in today's heartbreak sweepstakes.
Android No. 57821 otherwise known as Cyndi Mayweather has fallen desperately in love with a human named Anthony Greendown!
And you know the rules?
She is now scheduled for immediate dis-assembly!
Bounty hunters you can find her in the Neon Valley Street District on the fourth floor at the Leopard Plaza apartment complex.
The Droid Control Marshall's are full of fun rules today.
No faizers only chainsaws and electro-daggers!
Remember only card carrying hunters can join our chase today.
And as usual there will be no reward until her cyber-soul is turned into the Star Commission.
Featuring: Of Montreal
The way you are now
You're never gonna make the bus
Even though
Everybody's so impressed
You've got "Do androids dream of electric sheep?" under your pillow
I saw you spit on London just like you were Peter Pan
The way you are now
You're never gonna make it in my kitchen
Last I was here I was convinced I was your favorite warrior
I've got a terrible fixation
Can't get it off my mind
Don't really want to know it better
Want to keep it in the realm of fantasy
You wanted me just for a holiday
Or was it to pad your resume?
What do you give me but unwanted breakthroughs
Strange how certain details subvert everything
They lied their way into my prism
I was molested by some hundred year old men
But all I saw was proof of God's boredom
And the dark effects of nothing natural
OMG! WTT!
Aww girl we been through hell about it!
Then I see our friends and...
Everybody's so excited!
I'm standing over you eating juicy fruits till it gets in your eye!
I've got a terrible fixation
Can't get it off my mind
Don't really want to know it better
I'm locked inside
A land called foolish pride
Where the man is always right
He hates to talk but loves to fight
Is that all right?
On real cold days
He loans us lots of hate
But he says that we must pay
To take it all away
Is that ok?
Bridge:
But I'm asking you will you stay with me
In this land where we are free
And I know its rough and you've had enough
But one day we'll be happy
When I look into the future
I see danger in its eyes
Hearts of hatred rule the land
While love is left aside
Killing, Bleeding Citizen
While music slowly dies
And I get frightened I, see I get frightened
Chorus:
Oh how, oh how I need you baby
You keep me from going crazy
I really need you baby, need you to stay
Oh how, oh how I love you baby
These people are so crazy
I really need you baby, need you to stay
Verse 2:
She always fights, for her man but not her rights
Even though its 3005
When will we end this genocide?
And that's not right
Her children cry
No food to eat and afraid as flies
The color black means its time to die
And nobody questions why
Cause they're too scared to stop them now
Bridge
When I look into the future
I see danger in its eyes
Babies die before they're born
And no one ever smiles
The writers and the artists, all are paid to tell us lies
To keep us locked inside, they keep us locked inside
Chorus
I can make a change
I can start a fire
Lord, make me love again
Father, fill me with desire
Verse One

Some will pull the gun because they want to be stars
Snatching up your life into the blink of an eye
And if you see your cloning on a street walking by
Keep a running for your life cause only one will survive
War is in the street and it's an eye for an eye
Run on for your life or you can dance you can die
She's praying in the sand like she's the last samurai
It's a stick up stick up and a pick up pick up
Telling lies and telling lies will put your face on fire
Run and tell your friends to never dream, never win
Ghettos keep a crying out to streets full of zombies
Kids are killing kids and then the kids join the army
Rising and a waking, yes sir here comes the sun
March into the war and with the kick of the drum
The wiser simians have got the bombs and the guns
So you might as well keep dancing if you're not gonna run
A long long way to find the one
We'll keep on dancing till she comes
These dreams are forever
Oh these dreams are forever
And if you wanna wake the sun
Just keep on marching to the drums
These dreams are forever
Oh these dreams are forever
Now I'm not saying it's better to bailar (Spanish for dance)
You can pull the trigger or you can build you an ark
My words are rather kind you keep them held in contempt
Looking for a nine and then a droid you can tempt
Zombie, zombie, zombie, where do dreams come from?
A little bird is chirping and she's singing a song
She's shaking em and waking em and giving em mas
As the clock tick tocks and the bodies drop
I'm gonna lay myself so far way down right in your chops
Modern day example of the wolf vs flock
Freedom necessary and it's by any means
Frozen they were stolen all the kings and queens
Sudanese and Congolese who put the roll in the rock
From here to Sudan, Metropolis to Iraq
It's a minute to the dawn and yet the sun ain't back
It's still a war in all the streets and yes freaks will dance or die
A long long way to find the one
We'll keep on dancing till she comes
These dreams are forever
Oh these dreams are forever
And if you wanna wake the sun
Just keep on marching to the drums
These dreams are forever
Oh these dreams are forever
Angel, blossom, gunshot, dodging, dream, bright, beat, light, breathe, live, help, give, focus, trance, wake up, dance!
I'm praying for the man sitting without much time
May he understand the clock will never rewind
Wisen him and sharpen him and give him a motto
hate no more, said he must hate no more
You see the daylight comes into the kingdom
But the kingdom's full of ignorant men
Just keep rebelling away, you gotta dream it away
Because the weatherman on TV ain't creating the weather
This man wants to see another jubilation
And that man wants us in emancipation
And then there is the man who wants a stronger nation
You see we really got to and i think that we ought to
Protect the mind from degradation
Sow in the seeds of education
They run from us, are we that dangerous?
Tommy thinks the crazies are back in my mind
Tommy says the children are clouding my head
When everything is wrong I dance inside my mind
That's when I come alive like a schizo running wild
That's when I come alive now let's go wild
We're kicking at your window and keeping you up
And if you come to find me I'll color you red
We dancing in the dungeon every Monday night
That's when I come alive like a schizo running wild
That's when I come alive now let's go wild
You want to see me crazy taking my meds
And wipe away my noises you think I'm a mess
Take me six feet under while your roses died I came alive
You better leave the town I'm coming for you
Call the Tommy up and tell him come help you out
I'm getting wild on you you better go and call the law
Tommy thinks the crazies are back in my mind
Tommy says the children are clouding my head
When everything is wrong I dance inside your mind
Do do do do do
Do do do do do do do
Do do do
Every five minutes checkin my phone
Sittin on the edge of my bed
Just to see if you called
See I been waitin all day
Lately I've been actin strange and things
Walkin round like I'm in a trans
And that ain't me at all
See I tried to brush it off as just a silly game
That young girls like to play
But as time moved on I knew
My heart only beats for you
See what I'm trynna say is
You make me feel
The way I felt when I first met you
And my soul got chills
You make me feel
Like I can't breathe without you love
And that's oh so real
See I never thought I'd find love
A girl like me, it was impossible
And now I find myself in love
Boy, you got my nose wide open
I can't believe that you would be the one
Who would end my childish games for good
See I've tried to brush it off
As just a silly game that young girls like to play
But as time moved on I knew
My heart only beats for you
See what I'm trying to say is
You make me feel
The way I felt when I first met you
And my soul got chills
You make me feel
Like I can't breathe without you love
And that's oh so real
Ever since you walked in my life
Boy I swear I ain't been the same
Ain't it funny how things do happen
You came in and you re-arranged
My heart
And I'm so grateful baby
I mean I'm truly grateful baby
You made a difference in my life
And I can't explain the way that I feel
This journey through my life
As I seach for a home
And a place to belong
I find it hard to fit in
I meet lots of pretty girls
In this fantasy world
Waiting for their turn to shine
So I try to be Cindi
In hopes that they'd notice
But I wasn't their cup of tea
It's so lonely
When I'm only
Being me
Who's that girl in the mirror
With hair like a rockstar
She wants to dance but she has cold feet
Her confidence is low
So much talent but who'll know
When she's afraid to follow her dream
So I talked to her heart
And made up her mind
That I gotta accept her for me
But it's still lonely
When I'm only
Being me
oooohhhhhhh
You gotta be you
And I've gotta be me
Only
Only be
(feat. OutKast)
1st Verse:
Welcome to my world:
Oceans vs. Mountains
Call me the poor girl
Cause I love to fight them
But Im quite sweet,
If you take the time to get to know me.
Deep down my heart rattles around like a bone lost deep inside
See I like to fall in love, but not with that type of guy.
Ooo wee you got my clouds on fire,
Were tight rope walking and the worlds the wire
Remember kissing on Broadway, you and I?
I was being your baby and ticking and tocking your clock,
See we done jumped the broom and now youre no good.
And I was dreaming bout children, Emily Ann,
Our darling baby with her daddys eyes,
And it meant so much to me
And you know I needed your good love,
Baby how could you just go and change it all?
You turned my spring to fall
I needed you, you know,
But when the love is gone its time to go.
Hook:
If you dont think I mean it then youll feel it when Im gone
I said Im done (enough of yo love)
I said Im done (enough of yo love)
Im up to 3 oclock in the morning
While you party out til da dawn and
I said Im done (enough of yo love)
I said Im done (enough of yo love)
Darlin aint no feelin left its just a killin
Oh!!!
Just grab my gun (and lets go out)
Grab my gun (and lets go out)
It aint no room for love its just this burnin
Got me reelin!
Call the law (and hold the applause)
Call the law (and hold the applause)

You coming home, but the birds are gone
With they sad songs
They soaring on
But they might be wrong
I really wish you could change babe
Reclaim your throne
Down here in the darkness
