Mary J. Blige

Lookin out on the morning rain
I used to feel so uninspired
And when I knew I had to face another day
Lord it made me feel so tired

Before the day I met you
Life was so unkind
You're the key to my peace of mind

(Chorus)
Cause you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman
Woman...

When my soul was in the lost and found
You came along to claim it
I didn't know what was wrong with me
'til your kiss helped me name it

Now I'm no longer doubtful
Of what I'm livin' for
Cause if I make you happy
I don't need to do more

(Chorus)

Oh baby what you've done to me
(Done to me)
Oh you make me feel so good inside
(Good inside)
And I just wanna be
(Wanna be)
Close to you, you make me feel
So alive

(Repeat chorus

I used to feel uninspired
And when I knew I'd have face another day.
Lord, it made me feel so tired.
Before the day I met you
Life was so unkind.
Your love was the key to my peace of mind
'Cause you make me feel, you make me feel,
You make me feel like a natural woman.
When my soul was in the lost and found
You came along to claim it.
I didn't know just what was wrong with me
Till your kiss helped me name it.
Now I'm no longer doubtful of what I'm livin' for,
'Cause if I make you happy I don't need to do more.
You make me feel, you make me feel,
You make me feel like a natural woman.

Oh, baby, what you've done to me
(What you've done to me')
You make me feel so good inside
(Good inside.)
And I just want to be
(Want to be)
Close to you.
You make me feel so alive!
You make me feel, you make me feel,
You make me feel like a natural, natural woman.
You make me feel, you make me feel,
You make me feel like a natural natural woman
You make me feel, you make me feel,
You make me feel like a natural natural woman

I hope that you've been thinking about me

Chorus
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that I have been thinking of you
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that I have been thinking of you

Pick up the phone to call you
But I hung up cause I'm so afraid
Afraid of rejection
Or another woman in your face
Hopin' all day that you would call me
And that you're thinkin' of me too
Well in my case with the game of love
If I played I would probably lose

Chorus
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that I have been thinking of you
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that I have been thinking of you

I hope that you're thinkin' of me
And I pray every night you love me
I don't ever want what we have to end
And I'll always be your friend
Don't you feel me calling from afar
If you don't know I've been there from the start
As sure as my name is what it is
You'll always have a place in my heart

Chorus
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that I have been thinking of you
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that I have been thinking of you

Ooh, ooh, ooh....
I hope that you have been thinking of me
The way that I have been thinking of you
When I pray every night
That it's me in your dreams when your sleepin'
I really hope that I'm the that you're thinking about
Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Chorus
I hope that you have been thinking of me too (I hope that, I hope that you've
been thinkin')
The way that I have been thinking of you (All the time, can't get you off my
mind baby)
I hope that you have been thinking of me too
The way that I have been thinking of you

See I hope that it's you
And I hope that you are baby
Thinking of me too
Ooh, yeah, yeah...

See I hope that you are
Ooh, you're thinking of me
I need for you to think about me
Like I think about you baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah...

I hope that it's you
And I hope that you're thinking of, thinking of, thinking of me too

I can love you with my eyes closed
I see your heart through a blind fold
I ain't never ever met another better
So my baby ain't no way that I'ma let go
From the north to the south pole
From the east to the west coast
Wherever you go, all over the globe
Ain't no way on the planet you can go that I won't

From sun up to sun down
I'll always be around,
Every minute of every hour
Still it ain't enough time

Cause I got days and days of love, for you boy
And I don't wanna have to rush
But 24/7 ain't enough
Cause I got so much love for you boy
I need another hour and a day
So I can love you 25/8, 25/8

You ain't gotta worry about me, no
Ain't no question at my loyalty
You been there for me, even when nobody
Cared enough to check and see if I was breathing
See don't nobody really know me, know me
You and me, we got history
So I give you a part
For loving me boy, put your hand in my hand
I'll lead the way out

From sun up to sun down
I'll always be around,
Every minute of every hour
Still it ain't enough time

Cause I got days and days of love, for you boy
And I don't wanna have to rush
But 24/7 ain't enough
Cause I got so much love for you boy
I need another hour and a day
So I can love you 25/8

Ain't nobody give me love, give me love
Like I need
See I love the way you make me smile
When things ain't going right
You know how to hold me tight
Can make pain go away, yeah

Every day baby, every night baby
On the week day, on any day
On every day, I'm alive baby

Baby, you a soul mama

Don't call on another chick I'm callin' on ya
Won't trip on ya, I don't bring the drama

There it is

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Everyday I'm trying to get to know ya
But more and more you're changing up your act
Everyday I look for ways to bring us closer
But more and more you appear to be drawing back
And lately when We're making love its getting weaker
My heart don't feeling it and feeling is everything
And I'm feeling like maybe you just don't feel it
And I don't know how to play it
In the past, didn't know how to say it
But I

[Chorus]
I held my tongue too long
I can't do it no more (I just can't do it babe)
See how can a man be so cold
To a woman that loves him most (I don't get it at all)
(But if you wanna go) There's the door
(I can't hold ya) Boy you're grown
(You must got me confused)
(I treat myself way too good)
And a love that tears you down ain't really love

Everyday I'm getting up and making breakfast
And more and more you're walking in without a word
And everyday I'm trying to ask, "Baby what's wrong?"
And more and more you say I'm getting on your nerves
And then you take me to the level of some bullshit
Ya said ya never had these problems from a white chic
You got me twisted and twisted is just not how I get with it
You need to sit down and hear it

[Chorus]

I'm pouring out my heart (my heart)
Don't just sit there while my heart is on the line
Speak your truth (speak your truth)
What it's worth (what it's worth)
Not a word you say will go unheard
Now if it's like that
Then baby just pack your bags
Cause I'm sick and tired of fighting
I'm sick and tired of trying
I had enough of waiting
I'm not that good with playing
I know I love you
But I love myself too

[Chorus: x2]

[Chorus:]

You're all that I need, I'll be there for you
If you keep it real with me, I'll keep it real witchu
Loving your whole schemes, it be in there boo

[Verse One:]

Check it out
Shorty I'm there for you anytime you need me
For real girl, it's me in your world, believe me

Back when I was nuttin
You made a brother feel like he was something
That's why I'm with you to this day boo no frontin
Even when the skies were gray
You would rub me on my back and say "Baby it'll be okay"
Now that's real to a brother like me baby
Never ever give my pussy away and keep it tight aight
And I'ma walk these dogs so we can live
In a fat ass crib with thousands of kids
Word life you don't need a ring to be my wife
Just be there for me I'm a make sure we
Be livin in the fucking lap of luxury
I'm realizing that cha didn't have to fuck with me
But cha did now I'm going all out kid
And I got mad love to give, you my nigga

[Chorus 2X]

[Verse Two:]

I got a love jonz for your body and your skin tone
Five minutes alone I'm already on the bone
Plus I love the fact you got a mind of your own
No need to shop around you got the good shit at home
Even if I'm locked up North you in the world
Rockin three-fourths of cloth never showin your stuff off, boo
It be true me for you that's how it is

Then I can be your Sun, you can be my Earth
Resurrect the God through birth

Loving you is wonderful
Something like a miracle
Rest assured I feel the same way you do

Ohh, what we gonna do baby?

As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's a cure
You can rest your mind assured
That I'll be lovin' you always

As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
You know what I say is true
That I'll be lovin' you always

Until the rainbow burns the stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four
Until the day that it's the day that I'm no more

Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarentee
That last through forever
Another day

As today I know I'm living for tomorrow
Couldn't make me be the past but that I mustn't fear
Now I know deep in my mind
The love of me I left behind
And I'll be loving you always

*Until the rainbow burns the stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphins fly and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream

Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that eight times eight times eight is four
Until the day that it's the day that I'm no more

Did you know that true love asks for nothing
(True love don't wanna pay)
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarentee
To last through forever
Another day

As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Now I know deep in my mind
The love of me I left behind
That I'll be lovin' you always

*Repeat

Always
Always

*Repeat

As around the sun the earth
knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to
bloom in early May
Just as hate knows
love's a cure
You can rest your mind assured
That I'll be lovin' you always
As now can't reveal the
mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will
grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
You know what I say is true
That I'll be lovin' you always
Until the rainbow burns the
stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers
every mountain high
Until the day that eight times
eight times eight is four
Until the day that
it's the day that I'm no more
Did you know that true love
asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way
we pay
Did you know that life
has given love a guarentee
That last through forever
Another day
As today I know
I'm living for tomorrow
Couldn't make me be the past
but that I mustn't fear
Now I know deep in my mind
The love of me I left behind
And I'll be loving you always
Until the rainbow burns
the stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers
every mountain high
Until the dolphins fly
and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life
and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night
and night becomes the day
Until the trees and
seas just up and fly away
Until the day that eight times
eight times eight is four
Until the day that
it's the day that I'm no more
Did you know that
true love asks for nothing
True love don't wanna pay
Her acceptance is the way
we pay
Did you know that life
has given love a guarentee
To last through forever
Another day
As around the sun the earth
knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to
bloom in early May
Now I know deep in my mind
The love of me I left behind
That I'll be lovin' you always
Until the rainbow burns
the stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers
every mountain high
Until the dolphins fly
and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life
and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night
and night becomes the day
Until the trees and
seas just up and fly away
Until the day that eight times
eight times eight is four
Until the day that
it's the day that I'm no more

Until the rainbow burns
the stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers
every mountain high
Until the dolphins fly
and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life
and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night
and night becomes the day
Until the trees and
seas just up and fly away
Until the day that eight times
eight times eight is four

George Michael - As


As round the sun the earth knows she’s revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love’s the cure
You can rest your mind assured that
I’ll be loving you always

As now can’t reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older everyday
Just as all that’s bo
is new
You know what I say is true
That I’ll be loving you always

Until the rainbow bu
s the stars out of the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the day that 8 times 8 times 8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more

Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day

As today I know I’m living for tomorrow
Could make me the past
But that I mustn’t fear
I know deep in my mind
The love of me I’ve left behind
Cause I’ll be loving you always

Until the rainbow bu
s the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream
Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8 times 8 times 8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more

Did you know that true love asks for nothing
Her acceptance is the way we pay
Did you know that life has given love a guarantee
To last through forever and another day

As around the sun the earth knows she’s revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
For now I know deep in my mind
The love of me I’ve left behind
’Cause I’ll be loving you always

Until the rainbow bu
s the stars out in the sky
Until the ocean covers every mountain high
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream

Until the day is night and night becomes the day
Until the trees and seas just up and fly away
Until the day that 8 times 8 times 8 is 4
Until the day that is the day that are no more

make you so confused
One minute I'm so in love
and the next I can't stand you
But if u may ask it's
just the things that you do
that reminds me of all of the mess
that I've been through
I got this baggage with me
Don't wana make you pay
for what somebody else has done to me
I don't know what to do
With all this baggage in me
Everytime I hurt your feelings

I don't mean to hurt you
Heartache and pain

So I look for the worst
and brace myself for the hurt
But nobody has ever treated me this way
Please be patient with me

This baggage with me
Don't wana make you pay
for what somebody else has done to me
I don't know what to do
With all this baggage in me
Everytime I hurt your feelings

I don't mean to hurt you
I got this baggage with me
Don't wana make you pay
for what somebody else has done to me
I don't know what to do
With all this baggage in me
Everytime I hurt your feelings
it's what someones done to me
I don't mean to hurt you
It's no way to be livin' my life
But I can't get it out of my mind
You know I love you yes I do
So don't, don't we get it confused
Don't be confused coz

How can I love somebody else
If I can't love myself enough to know
When it's time,
Time to let go, oh
Sing

Chorus:
All I really want
is to be happy
And to find a love that's mine
It would be so sweet


I ask for a sign
From the sweet Lord above
I know the answer is if I love me
But when you think you're in love
You only see what you wanna see
And all I see is me for you
And you for me

Oh, I can not hide the way I feel inside
(Oh I don't know why)
I don't know why but every day I wanna cry
(Every day I wanna cry)
If I give you one more try
To these rules will you abide
And if I mean anything to you
Would it make everything all right

Chorus

I just wanna be so, so happy
But the answer lies in me
I do believe
That we can be happy
I said I wanna be happy, yeah
Life is too short
To be tryin' to play some games
It's takes just to think about
If it's really worth losing me
Why must it be this way
Why do you have to play with my mind
All the time
Help me sing it

All I really want is to be
To be happy
(Repeat through chorus)

Chorus

Oh just help me sing it
I just wanna be happy, yeah
I don't wanna have to worry about nothin' no more

I don't wanna have to worry about nothin' no more
Said I wanna be, said I wanna be

Vs.1)
I can't deal with the fact that
You don't want me around
Why you wanna see me down?

It's so unusual
That you don't love me no more
Why you wanna close the door?

I spent all my days and all my nights with you
Just tell me what am I gonna do without you
If loving you is so right
Tell me how I'll make it through the night
You know that I don't ever want to leave you

(Chorus)
(I wanna be with you)
I just wanna be with you
Nothing else I'd rather do
(I wanna be with you)
I want to spend my life with you

(Vs.2)
Let's take this time to think about
what was said and done
Now tell me why you had to run

Away from me
Now I can't sleep at night
Why we had to fight

Everyday from you I look and I see something new
Now tell me what I got to do to get this through to you
It's the little things you do for me
That makes me very happy
You know that I don't wanna leave you

(Chorus)

It seams like each and ever time I come around
You don't want me there
And it's beginning to make me so scared
So scared that I might loose you
All I wanna do is be with you baby baby baby baby boy

(Chorus and adlibs until fade

I wanna be with you,
gotta be with you,
need to be with you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I wanna be with you,
gotta be with you,
need to be with you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oooo oh, oh, oh, oh oooo
Chemistry was crazy from the get-go
Neither one of us knew why
We didn't build nothing overnight
Cuz a love like this takes some time
People swore it off as a phase
Said we can't see that
Now from top to bottom
They see that we did that yes
It's so true that yes
We've been through it yes
We got real sh** yes
See baby we been...
Too strong for too long
and I can't be without you baby
And I'll be waiting up until you get home

Too hard to fake it, nothing can replace it

without your baby

But still I wanna ask you
Would you lie? no
Make me cry? no
Do somethin' behind my back
and then try to cover it up?

1st Verse:

Chemistry was crazy
From the get go
Neither one of us
Knew why
We didn't build
Nothin' over night
Cause a love like this
Takes some time
People swore it off
As a phase
Said
"We can't see that"
Now top from bottom
They see
That we did that
(Yes)
It's so true that
(Yes)
We've been
Through it
(Yes)
We got real sh..
(Yes)
See, baby we've been

Chorus:

Too strong
For too long
And I can't
Be without
You baby
And I'll
Be waitin' up
Untill you get home
Cause I can't sleep
Without you baby

Anybody whose
Ever loved you
Knows just what
I feel
Too hard to fake it
Nothin' can replace it
Call the radio
If you just can't
Be without
Your baby

2nd Verse:

I got a question
For ya
See, I already
Know the answer
But still I wanna
Ask you
Would you lie?
(No)
Make me cry?
(No)
Do somethin'
Behind my back
And then try to
Cover it up?

Well, neither will I
Baby, my love
Is on the up and up
(Yes)
I'll be faithful
(Yes)
I'm for real
(Yes)
And with us
You'll always
Know the deal
We've been

Chorus:

Too strong
For too long
And I can't
Be without
You baby
And I'll
Be waitin' up
Untill you get home
Cause I can't sleep

Ever loved you
Knows just what
I feel

Now, if you're down
On love
Or don't believe

And if you got it
Deep in your heart
Deep down
You know

Chorus:
Beautiful
Now you're near
In my life
Oh my dear
Beautiful
Come to me
Now I have
Someone watching over me

All my days and nights so lonely
'Til you came into my life
You came and brought my life back to me
Cause I was dying deep inside

You brought the light
And my life was so dark
You took the fight
And you made it your own
I really love you
No other love can measure up
To the love that you give to me
And with all this love comes trust
You're so...

Chorus

I opened up my arms to greet you
With unconditional love
Tender sweet is he that helps me
Leave my problems all behind

(Baby come to me)
Baby come to me
You know that I will set you free
(Promise it will be)
Promise it will be an experience for you and me
(Something beautiful)
Let me take you to a place where there is understanding
Where love flows unselfishly and never ever demanding

So beautiful

Chorus

Ooh, so beautiful
(If I had a dream, it would be so beautiful)
I wanna say that I love you
Oh, the love you give
All the love you give to me
All my days and nights so lonely
And it's so, so, beautiful
But now I have a friend that I can talk to, yeah
(If I had a dream, it would be so beautiful)

You're so beautiful

Chorus

You're so beautiful
You are so beautiful

You're the only love I know
Beautiful
You're the only love I know
Beautiful
You're the reason why I live
Beautiful
You're the reason why I wanna give you everything
(Since you came into my life)

Tell your bride's maid to hit off my best man
Always on my mind like money
You my honey, there when I'm laced, there when I'm bummy

Say word, it's type hard for me to get you off my mind
But I still get dough of course
True love, between a thug and a dove
Poppin' champagne in the tub, wha!

Jadakiss:
Ay yo, everything revolves around trust
Cause if it wasn't for you, then they wouldn't be no us
No jealousy, envy, and no lust
3-2-8 off the lot when I bust
Sittin' in the house countin' Lincolns and I'm still thinking
Can't get you off so I'm blinkin'
Sinkin', down in the silk couch, milked out
Your hole in my heart got my love all spilled out

Ooh, I can't get you...

Whoa, whoa, whoa

Bounce, bounce, bounce, Roc-A-Fella y'all Check, check

Yo, I'm makin short term goals, when the weather folds
just put away the leathers and put ice on the gold
Chilly with enough bail money to free a big willie
High stakes, I got more at stake than Philly Shoppin sprees, copin

Deuce fever IS's fully loaded, ah yes
bouncin in the lex luger, tires smoke like buddha
50 G's to the crap shooter, niggaz can't fade me Chrome socks beamin
Through my perephreal I see ya schemin
Stop dreamin, I leave your body steamin
Niggaz is fiendin, what's the meanin? I'm leanin on any nigga
intervenin
with the sound of my money machine-in My cup runneth, over with

I'm one of the best niggas that done it, six digits and runnin

The Don Juan DeMarco; swear to God, don't get it fucked up

*I'm takin out this time
to give you a piece of my mind (cause you can't knock the hustle)
Who do you think you are?
Baby one day you'll be a star

Last seen out of state where I drop my slang
I'm deep in the South kickin up top game
Bouncin on the highway switchin fo' lanes
Screamin through the sunroof - money ain't a thang
Your worst fear confirmed Me and my fam' roll tight like The Firm
Gettin down for life, thats right, you better learn Why play with
fire, burn
We get together like a choir, to acquire what we desire
We do dirt like worms, produce G's like sperm 'til legs spread like
germs
I got extensive hoes, with expensive clothes
and I sip fine wines and spit vintage flows What y'all don't know?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, cause you can't knock the hustle

** But until the late thang I'm the one who's crazy
cause that's the way you're makin me feel
(cause you can't knock the hustle)
I'm just tryin to get mine, I don't have the time to knock the hustle
for real

Yo, y'all niggaz lunchin, punchin the clock
My function is to make much and lay back munchin
Sippin Remy on the rocks, my crew, somethin to watch
Nothin to stop, un.. ..stoppable Scheme on the ice, I gotta hot your
crew
I gotta, let you niggaz know the time like Movado
My motto, stack rocks like Colorado
Auto off the champagne, Cristal's by the bottle
It's a damn shame what you're not though (who?) Me
Slick like a gato, fuckin Jay-Z
My pops knew exactly what he did when he made me
Tried to get a nut and he got a nut and what
Straight bananas; can a nigga, see me?
Got the US Open, advantage Jigga
Serve like Sampras, play fake a rappers like a campus
Le Tigre, son you're too eager You ain't havin it? Good, me either
Let's, get together and make this whole world believe us huh?
At my arraignment, screamin
all us blacks got is sports and entertainment, until we even
Thievin, as long as I'm breathin
Can't knock the way a nigga eatin - fuck you even!

verse I

I'm makin sure it turns gold, when the weather folds,
just put away the leathers and put ice on the gold,
chilly with enough bail money to free a big willy,
hi-stakes, I got more estate than philly,
shopping sprees, coppin 3, deuce fever I.S'n,
fully loaded, aahh yes,
bouncin in the lex luger, tight in smoke like budah,
50 g's to the crap shooter, niggas cant fade me,
chrome stocks beamin, through my perithial,
I see you schemin, stop dreamin, I'll leave ya body steamin,
niggas is fiendin, whats the meanin?,
I'm leanin on any nigga intervenin with the sound of my money machine'n,
my cup's runnin, over with hundreds,
I'm one of the best niggas that done it,
6 digits and runnin, y'all niggas dont want it,

verse II

last seen outta state, where I dropped my slang,
I'm deep in the south, kickin up top game,
bouncin on the highways, switchin 4 lanes,
screaming though the sunroof money aint a thing,
your worst fear confirmed, me and my fam roll tight like the firm,
gettin down for life, thats right, you better learn,
why play when fire burns?,
we get together like a choir, to acquire what we desire,
we do dirt like worms, produce g's like sperm,
till legs spread like germs,
I get extensive hoes, with expensive clothes,
and I sip fine wines, and spit dangerous flows,
what y'all dont know?
cuz ya cant knock the hustle

chorus (Mary J. Blige)

runnin till the late day, I'm the one whos crazy,
cuz thats the way youre makin me be, (the way you make me feel),

I'm just tryin to get mine, I dont have the time,
to knock the hustle for real

verse III

y'all niggas lunchin, punchin the clock,

I'm just tryin to get mine, I dont have the time,

Day by day my life gets colder
My ice grows thin as I get older
Peace in peaces bloody and bruised
I feel so helpless and confused
Cuz I hear screamin on the left
yellin on the right
I'm sitting in the
middle tryin to live my life
Cuz I cant stop the war
Shelter homeless feed the poor
I can't walk on water
I can't save your sons and daughters
I can't change the world
and make things fair
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
The least that I can do is care

I pray and pray for life's salvation
Faith is tried and true
in tribulation
Love is lost and lonely
check the news
And with these open arms
I'll wait for you
Cuz I hear screamin on the left
yelling on the right
Im sitting in the
middle trying to live my life
Cuz I cant stop the war
Shelter homeless feed the poor
I can't walk on water
I can't save your sons and daughters
I can't change the world
to make things fair
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
The least that I can do is care
For the life of me
I can't see how the devil
keeps enticing me
All u sees a felon
I know god can see whats
right in me
How I can be labeled as a villain
in the first place
When the worst case senerio is
my birth place
Im just tryin to keep from
fallin victim to the murder rate
Take my life lesson convincing
the adolecents
There's a god up in heaven
sending down blessins
And ur furture ain't brighter
than ur present
Quit Stressin
screamin on the left
Yellin on the right
While im sittin in the
middle trying to live my life
Cuz I cant stop the war
Shelter homeless feed the poor
I Cant walk on water
I cant save ur sons and daughters
I cant change the
world to make things fair
The least that I can do is care
I cant stop the war
Shelter homeless feed the poor
I cant walk on water
I cant save ur sons and daughters
I cant change the
world and make things fair
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
The least that I can do
Oh is CARE

Oh, don't you wanna be with me

(Chorus)
Can't you see what I've been going through
Cause I wanna be with you
(Baby, don't you wanna be with me?)
Changes I've been going through
Cause I wanna be with you

(Vs.1)
It's all gone
The love I thought we shared is gone away
Maybe it's better that we didn't stay together

Seems like we've gone through this a thousand times
Maybe I still don't have the answer
Why can't you tell me why we couldnt be together

(Chorus)

(Vs.2)
See I didn't want to ever hold you tight
But still I need love and affection
Was it that hard for you to show me some attention

Tell me baby, did I push you away
Was I coming on to strong for you
Why can't you tell me, tell me what am I supposed to do
Oh can't you see

(Chorus)

Chorus repeated and ad-libs until fade

don't you wanna be with me
can't you see what i've been going through
cause i wanna be with you
(don't you wanna be with me)
changes i've been going through
cause i wanna be with you

1st verse
it's all gone
the love that we have shared
has gone away
maybe it's better that we didn't stay together
seems like we've gone through this a thousand times
baby i still don't have the answers
why can't you tell me why we couldn't be together
(ooooohhh)

chorus

ohhhh why it have to be boy

see i didn't want to ever hold you down
but still i need love very bad
was it that hard for you to show me some attention
tell me baby did i push you away
was i coming on too strong for you
why can't you tell me
tell my what i'm supposed to do

chorus

don't you wanna be with me
cause i really need you
don't you wanna be with me

(don't you wanna be with me)

chorus

cause the love we shared
love has gone away

Christmas in the city, boy
Ain't nothing like it (word up)
Yo, remember last year
I think we was on tour last year
I ain't tryin' to be (word up) in the city
That's what I want
Christmas in the city

Christmas jams at the tunnel
Chop through hustle and bustle
Snow and lights make wonderland
Out of this concrete jungle

There's a miracle on 34th Street
On a train, yeah, that lady
With all them bags, you see

Radio City for the Christmas show
We making Angels in the snow
Giving honey lots of kisses under Mistletoe

Snowball fights at courtyards
See Spanish Harlem sing Feliz Navidad
New York state of mind
At Christmas time
In the city

All the children showing
Their new clothes and toys and things
That they got for Christmas, this year
Their full of happiness and cheer

On Christmas in the city
I'm so glad I'm living
To see another Christmas Day
Got to show the Lord I appreciate
His blessings on this special day
It's Christmas in the city (hey)

CHORUS:
Christmas in the city
(Christmas in the city)
Ain't no place I'd rather be (yeah, oh)
Out of all the places I could be
I'd rather be
(I'd rather be)
In New York, chilly

Rockefeller Center
Has the biggest Christmas tree of all
You can go downtown and see it all
I guarantee you'll have a ball
On Christmas in the city

Something about this atmosphere
Makes me want to stay right here
I can see the city lights
Watch the cab drivers fuss and fight, on Broadway
And it's Christmas, Christmas, yeah

CHORUS

CHORUS

I want to be chilly
La, la, la ,la ,la
La, la, la, la, la
Out of all the places I could be
I'd rather be home, chilly

CHORUS

CHORUS (Fade out)

It took a long time
to get to this place
And now that I'm here no one

The joy that I feel way

Life looks so amazing

To quench the drought in me

Mary J, Def Jam, let's go

{1 - Mary J. Blige}
Confrontation, confrontation
Confrontation, confrontation
Confrontation, confrontation
Confrontation, confrontation

{Mary J. Blige}
Are you mad because I turned it around?
But if I stayed the same
You would still be running your mouth, oh
You never doubt the Queen of Hip-Hop soul
I never let you down cause I'm on a roll
My new cd is in your store
So pick it up and feel my soul

{Repeat 1}

{Mary J. Blige}
Everybody wants to know where I've been
Cause living life the way I do seems to be a sin, oh
But that stuff follows me everywhere I go
Get out of hair cause shit is out of control
Don't come too close to cause you never know
What I would do if you disrespect me

{Repeat 1 till end}

Once he's in he gets so comfortable
Never wanting to commit for sure
Always lyin' 'bout the girl next door
That's how all these things begin

You let your guard down and he does you in
All your secrets he's been holding that's in
To throw back at you when it benefits him
So he can go and play with all the chickens

So tell me when the lying and the front begun
Why you playing with me cause it's not fun
How could it be two if I'm your only one
That's how crazy this game is

Working so hard to complete myself
Never thinkin' bout the love that's on the shelf
Livin' our life like there is no one else
That's how crazy this game is

Who you messin' with with all the games you play
Oh, you didn't know my name was Mary J
All the chicks you hit I heard they all look slave
Tryin' to gas me sayin' things have changed
Now you're like the furthest thing from my brain
Never thought I had to say it to you this way
All the years I've been wit you
Boy I feel so played
Now I need to go and jump on my plane

Tell me when the lying and the front begun
Why you playing with me cause it's not fun
How could it be two if I'm your only one
That's how crazy this game is

Working so hard to complete myself
Never thinkin' bout the love that's on the shelf
Livin' our life like there is no one else
That's how crazy this game is

This is one thing I will not tolerate
I'm not
For this
Abusive
Relation
Conclusive
Excusive
For a evolution

You think
With all
The games
It stops
Possesive
Obsessive
Expression

Tell me when the lying and the front begun
Why you playing with me cause it's not fun
How could it be two if I'm your only one
That's how crazy this game is

Working so hard to complete myself
Never thinkin' bout the love that's on the shelf
Livin' our life like there is no one else
That's how crazy this game is

That's how crazy this game is
That's how crazy this game is....

Yo, even if you don't dance, rock to this
Let your pants sag, stand up and block to this
Come on mami, relieve stress, you don't need rest
So while the niggers lay cash, you chicks shake ass

If you're floatin' real high
And you feelin' the vibe
Won't you get on the floor and just dance for me
If you're feeling the groove
It ain't knocking for you
So just get on the floor and just dance for me

And I know you been stressed
That's how we got you messed up
Get on the floor and just dance for me
Just be here and you'll jump
So stay here 'till it close
And stay up on the floor and just dance for me

Hey, I know it's been rough
But I'm tryin' to make it easy
For everybody to dance for me
So come one, come all, come everybody
Me and you, all of us 'bout to really party
And you know that we're gonna put it down
After two more drinks, we'll be feelin' the sound

Get off the wall cuz I know that you can feel me
Stop the fronting and dance for me
So come one, come all, come everyone
And me and you, all of us, by the way we party
And you know that we're gonna put it down
After four more drinks we'll be fallin' down

Leave all your troubles and your cares behind
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, not tonight, no
Don't drink too much because we have all night
Don't you rush because it's all night long

Yeah, yeah, yo
Party time, pull the Linx out, get the minks out
Or come ghetto, but just dance to the music
Feel the vibe, I'll throw up your hands and loose it
You say you ball 'till you fall
Well it's your chance to prove it
You on hand 'till the sun up
And the pounds of smoke, bottles is empty
And I got them models in the Bentley
And six simply when I bounce in the club
Around thugs that smoke ounces of blunt
Cop cases of Cris', pop 'till they can't taste the shit
But hell, what's the major event
Real niggas, real broads, ill cars, hot rims
Sedan Coupes, SUV's, to the drop Benz
From the outside in, the party rock
We just started and we ain't tryin' to hardly stop
From the Bellvedere to the Bacardi shots
Just dance ma, cuz you know the bar hot

Yo, even if you don't dance, rock to this
Let your pants sag, stand up and block to this

Party time, pull the Linx out, get the minks out
Or come ghetto, but just dance to the music
Feel the vibe, I'll throw up your hands and loose it
You say you ball 'till you fall
Well it's your chance to prove it
You on hand 'till the sun up
And the pounds of smoke, bottles is empty
And I got them models in the Bentley
And six simply when I bounce in the club
Around thugs that smoke ounces of blunt
Cop cases of Cris', pop 'till they can't taste the shit
But hell, what's the major event
Real niggas, real broads, ill cars, hot rims
Sedan Coupes, SUV's, to the drop Benz
From the outside in, the party rock
We just started and we ain't tryin' to hardly stop
From the Bellvedere to the Bacardi shots
Just dance ma, cuz you know the bar hot

Yo, even if you don't dance, rock to this
Let your pants sag, stand up and block to this
Come on mami, relieve stress, you don't need rest
So while the niggers lay cash, you chicks shake ass

If you're floatin' real high
And you feelin' the vibe
Won't you get on the floor and just dance for me
If you're feeling the groove
It ain't knocking for you
So just get on the floor and just dance for me

And I know you been stressed
That's how we got you messed up
Get on the floor and just dance for me
Just be here and you'll jump
So stay here 'till it close
And stay up on the floor and just dance for me

Hey, I know it's been rough
But I'm tryin' to make it easy
For everybody to dance for me
So come one, come all, come everybody
Me and you, all of us 'bout to really party
And you know that we're gonna put it down
After two more drinks, we'll be feelin' the sound

Get off the wall cuz I know that you can feel me
Stop the fronting and dance for me
So come one, come all, come everyone
And me and you, all of us, by the way we party
And you know that we're gonna put it down
After four more drinks we'll be fallin' down

Leave all your troubles and your cares behind
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, not tonight, no
Don't drink too much because we have all night
Don't you rush because it's all night long

Yeah, yeah, yo
Party time, pull the Linx out, get the minks out
Or come ghetto, but just dance to the music
Feel the vibe, I'll throw up your hands and loose it
You say you ball 'till you fall
Well it's your chance to prove it
You on hand 'till the sun up
And the pounds of smoke, bottles is empty
