I'm not afraid to be your lady
I'm not afraid to be your whore I'm not afraid to be your future I'm not afraid to be your soil In which you plant your seed Flowers, they sprout for me My fragrance in the breeze You must nurture me please I'm not afraid to be your baby I'm not afraid to be your strength I'm not afraid to be open wide I'm not afraid to be glutinous The essence of glue I will stick to you Through earthquakes and moods If ever one thing was true I'm not afraid to wind it, wind it I'm not afraid to keep your pace I'm not afraid to create my queendom I'm not afraid to take my place I'm not afraid |

Verse 1
Here you go, jacket down Timbs off Remote control And there you go Off into outerspace Distant from me Where do you go? Your eyes are closed I'd like to know I stop, sit next to you because you seem so blue, And pray nothings broke Baby I don't want to see us burn down And go up in smoke No, no, no, no, no Chorus Talk to me, break it down, spell it out, spell it out for me Talk to me, break it down, spell it out, spell it out for me Verse 2 But when I push Begins the riff You take off and there I sit Alone feeling cold I become antagonist, loud, and wrong Words are thrown I bitch, you moan So I try another tactic Ohh, ohhhh, oh Verse 3 Close your eyes Relax your mind Cool down Just recline We've got the time To let it go Just unwind I'll be cool baby I'll be quiet If you'd like I'll put on your favorite song Sounds nice! Thug passion on ice? Or a glass of Merlot? I'll roll it up If you want I won't front I just need to know What you know Talk to me, break it down, spell it out for me baby Talk to me, break it down, spell it out for me Dee da da Be bim bim Bum bum bum di di bum didi dow... (continues scatting) Ohh Baby I'm getting so frustrated Aggravated And so it seems that you're hiding something from me And that ain't the way my sweet I'm loving you But I get confused And what makes me fear When your personality is unclear I make things up in my mind You're right next to me But sometimes I feel like you're off away And you just don't have a thing to say But I'm for you So tell me what you Tell me what you're goining through Ahh |

When we first met, I was surprised to get...
That feelin... That feelin... the kind that don't wash away with soap. So sweet to me... Mmmmm......The kind of feeling I need... 2 get me thru my darkest days... For you I prayed.... What you do is Crazy baby, Not like you belong in an asylum /Crazy baby Like the sun in the morning and the moon at night, Like the rain falling from the sky. Like the trees growing from the ground, I'm astounded baby.. by your love for me, and you're touchin me, and you're trustin me.. like you do, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-wooo. Even now, I still feel that feeling....... Although, we've grown..... We're still on the same side Of the proverbial road..... Heading in the same direction I'm so glad to know.... With you I spend my time... What you do is Crazy baby, Not like you belong in an asylum /Crazy baby Like the sun in the morning and the moon at night, Like the rain falling from the sky. Like the trees growing from the ground, I'm astounded baby.. by your love for me, and you're touchin me, and you're trustin me.. like you do, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-woo, woo-wooo. (repeat chorus 4 x's).............Crazy baby. |

I gotta admit sometimes I feel week for loving you the way I do
It's beyond me I can't control it or force it to be, you know, what I want it to be I think about you so much when I'm with you and when I'm not It's deep, the way, just looking in your eyes just changes my whole perspective Nothing is more beautiful than loving you, holding you being next to you Kissing youir lips taking my time with you Nothing is more beautiful than loving you Holding you being next to you Moving my hips Moving in time with you Put of all the things in the world, god gave us to each other It's amazing You are the king I always imagined This is the bes time of my life. |

His name was Rasool
Carmel completed boy from the 22 Rough on the outside But on the inside he was cool Rasool was a king But also a fool Back on the block again with the same crew Tariq from the west side Little John form the avenue Always seen um bout a quarter to two Shaking hands with everybody But at the same time sharing the blues And oh how he passed it on Shaking hands till what was in his pockets was gone He'd be outside in the cold with his bubble goose on But inside I knew he wasn't warm Around 10:30 on that dreary night His bowaz said they were hungry they were hungry Wanted to get a bite But they didn't send a runner Rasool knew it wasn't right But he stayed anyway to get the chain he liked And oh how the shots rang in the streets Hitting everybody in the surrounding vicinity Children of the children One young father to be And Rasool lay dead in my north Philly Street At fifteen years old It was the first death I'd seen But the game ain't designed for no kind of winning And oh this is a friend of Rasool Telling you to think about what you do and who you call your crew The very choices you make May make a Rasool out of you Now you don't want that do you? |

*The little rain drops fallin' down on me
But I can't seem to feel it, feel it Feel it coming over me The rain gon' come through the window, pain will come Black, white, rich, poor, it's the same old drum Rainy days like the war, use wisdom as a weapon Hold your head up, dry your clothes and keep steppin' Let the children feel the rain, 'cause if they feel the rain From the wetness, they stand to gain I came into the game, it felt like the middle of June Music was warm, artists, like flowers, they bloom Then boom, I shook the room, many felt the thunder My time to shine, did it like summer I wondered if the sun would shine forever Pops said "rain gon' come", to him I said "never" Chedder in the genes, face on screens Got a benz wit' the sheen, but what did it all mean I earned money and burned money, credit cards smokin' Platinumn, grammys, famous, but still broke and Not having cash put me in check Yo, the road to the riches is slippery when wet Amongst the fall is where you truly find yourself Ever since then, the rain I never felt Deal wit' it *Repeat (x2) At age seventeen, the worst pain, a hurrcaine Her first name still conjuers the rain Vowed to never let nobody ever get me wet Lest we forget, love is a four season concept Many say the rain they can't stand Never let the weather determine the man God has a plan, from it I never ran Follow my heart through the storm, my umbrella in hand I'm Noah, life's my arc forty days and forty nights, still can't take my heart Seen the fallen man To dope and liquor brands The devil'll dance to make it rain Bringing the pain Walk through the puddles of struggle on flooded streets Soakin' wet, but mastered the art of peace Through grey skies, I grew wise, on bended knees I knelt Since then, the rain I never felt What's wit' it *Repeat (x2) Sometimes I sit in my room, stuff on my mind Stress, can't rest, so I open the blinds See kids in the streets, runnin' around It wasn't touchin' em, but the rain was comin' down I wondered how, with my mouth wide Reminisce of the key, said I wanna go outside In the rain, to see if the same would happen to me 'Bout that time, God started rappin' to me He said "pain is the mother of change, the rain must flow So the seeds of joy might grow Don't be afraid, find shelter in me The road to greatness, through the valley of adversity" I felt the light as He proceeded to drop the gem These little children, the world we must receive like them I just smiled, and thanked Him for the cards He delt And since then, the rain I never felt What's wit' it *Repeat (x6) |
