Lyrics


breath from another (TOP)

(Excerpt from Deliverance: You sure do got a pretty mouth
Why don't you drop my pants, I'll make you squeal like a pig…)

Feet in the water is not cold enough
You're not woman enough
Inside your daughter is not warm enough
And you're not woman enough, no

Don't compromise what's gold
For the soul you never sold
For the soul you never sold, no
So I follow you down this road
Well you try but you can't let go
So hold on to years ago

Cold as a lover, don't you wanna stay?
Breath from another and I'll have my way
Inside your daughter
You can never hold what you can't let go 'cause he wants it so
She'd sell her own mother
Just to make a dime before closing time when he tells her so

Don't compromise what's gold
For the soul you never sold
For the soul you never sold, no
So I follow you down this road
Will you drive, well you can't let go
So long, two years ago

[Rap:]
She said she wanted me to hit it but I said I wasn't with it
Eyes red, thighs spread, better come get it
While it's hot the goods I got, nevermind my bad credit
Told me how she was soaking wet and I'm the one who wet it
Can't lie I sweat it but I knew that if I ran through that it's up the creek I'm headed
Body was there without nor sight nor vision still embedded
But I knew for fucking sure that in the morning I'd regret it
Had to debt it, I jetted

He got me hooked 'til I was shooking in the middle of the game
Teary eyes, touch my thighs, future high you'll be my game
Could have kept it but I left it embedded instead of it dissecting me
Free spirit I feared it but steered it to clear it the stress in me
Possessing me, the chemistry, mother want me in the ministry
Where misery influenced me corruption claiming custody
And I knew this time, I had to feel the pain
It was needed so I'll see what caused deception in the game

Don't compromise what's gold
For the soul you never sold
For the soul you never sold, no
So I follow you down this road
Will you drive, well you can't let go
So hold on to years ago

I'll try to understand
When you're down on your knees in front of a man
I'll try to understand
Don't compromise what's gold
For the soul you never sold
For the soul you never sold, girl

 

heaven sent (TOP)

I came and saw you left the light on
There was no one home at all
Couldn't wait to get your clothes on
Shouldn't come around to call on you
The taste was sweet and you delivered
I didn't know I would feel so high
Well, I guess we didn't have to kill her
But don't feel so bad though

You looked her in the eye
And I watched her cry
And my mouth went dry
Everyone is going to have to die sometime

My mouth is clean, my hands are dirty
Heaven isn't on my side
Well, if it was then she'd have hurt me
Didn't think this through

But I didn't have the time
To perfect my crime
I drank my wine
Everything is going to be just fine

I don't know, I don't love (You're alone, You're alone)
I don't know anyone like me
I'm not heaven sent
I'm not heaven sent
But I'm broken and bent

My mouth went dry
As I watched her cry
Everyone has to, gets to die
But not on my time, not on this girl's time
Fucked if it's my time (fucked if it's my time)
Not on my time (This is all fucked up)

 

anywayz (TOP)

Anywayz...
Maybe you could get me out of this place
[2x]

This cold room
This cold house
These cold eyes
This cold heart

Anywayz...
Maybe you could get me out of this place
[2x]

All the things I wish I was…I see, I see in you, I do

I bet you know just how to touch me
(To see in me)
Slide the hand to free me
(Oh, to see in me)

I bet you know just how to touch me
(To see in me)
Slide the hand to frame me
(Oh, to see in me)

Anywayz...
Maybe you could get me out of this place
(I'd be yours)
Anywayz...
Maybe you could get me out of this place

(All I wanted...yeah, this cold this cold heart...)

that girl (TOP)

In the bat of an eye you already think about yourself
And I don't believe all the lies coming out of my mouth
Try to forget all the things that I did to myself
And in time I see it fading

One of these these things just doesn't belong here
And look at that girl
Oh, I just don't belong here
And look at that girl

Aphrodite tonight, she's lifting up her dress and child
Her stomach is so tight and she feels herself fading

One of these these things just doesn't belong here
And look at that girl
I just don't belong here
And look at that girl

And I'll try to catch my own vibe, leave behind the countryside
Who I'll be, when I'll be, cause it's my right to love design

One of these these things just doesn't belong here
And look at that girl
I just don't belong here
And look at that girl
[2x]

 

country livin' (the world i know) (TOP)

The world I know is a world too slow
Don't move fast enough, keep your head low
The world I know is a world much too slow
If you can't move fast enough child, better stay on the low child

And I want to lay in the passenger seat of a car
We could drive around all night, we wouldn't have to go too far
Just look at the stars, this night could be ours

The world I know is a world too slow
Don't move fast enough, keep your head low
The world I know is a world much too slow
If you can't move fast enough child, better stay on the low child

And I want a life lover that'll go that far
We don't have to do this right, do you know who you are
This ride could be ours, just look at those stars

And we are never going home
This ride is far too long to travel alone
And the moon will shine brightly on this road
Which way you want to go?

The world I know is a world too slow
Don't move fast enough, keep your head low
The world I know is a world much too slow
If you can't move fast enough child, better stay on the low child

And I want a life lover that'll go that far
We don't have to do this right, yes I know who you are
This ride could be ours, just look at those stars

Just look at those stars
Baby we could be stars
Just look at those stars
Baby we could be stars

 

half a world away (TOP)

Tu me tocas
Tu me abrases
Y tu me llamas
Pero me siento solamente
Muy solas

Across the sand the warm air blows
From her eyes you know she was half a world away
Bites her lip and pulls her clothes
Caressed her thigh and soon night would turn to day

She was half a world away
Half a world away

He tells her not to close her eyes
Lifts his hands up to her face and wipes her hand away
He's the master of the lies
He makes the rules up for this game, he'll tell her what to say

And send her half a world away (half a world away)
My child, half a world away (half a world away)
Don't close your eyes (half a world away)
We're all on the run from something we fear inside (half the world away)
We don't really know ourselves at all

Half a world away...

 

lounge (TOP)

Sweet caress and tender mouth
Kissed her breast, and then he found, he found
Forty days and forty nights before this day
Said that she would always be the man until she found herself
You can't stop her now

Peace within or has she seen? (and you know she will find out)
She's gonna find it (she's not too far behind it)
Searching for the searing heat
Broke the glass and stole the fate that she didn't earn
For the dress she wore that night, to find her there, she found herself
If he could see his way to daylight…

You can't stop her now…

(Speak softer love)
(In my love)
(Speak softer now)
(Speak soft of love)

 

superheroes (TOP)

Stay awhile longer sweet tongue of fur and feather
There is a white breast waiting for you here
Between the superheroes, and the electric blanket is warm
I could be sweet, I could be young and fresh
If I weren't so old and used and wet and wet, I am wet

I try not to ruin the moment, tell me all your secrets and your torments
You're delicious, you're delicious
Send me on a quest for lullabies and more
What would it take for you to see what I have got?
I've got more than you know
Open your eyes, I cannot be what I am not

I'm not what I used to be, I'm not what, I'm not what I used to be, and I
I don't know myself from anybody else
I'm not what I used to be, I'm not what, I'm not what I used to be, and I
You don't know what you have done
My frame is here but the mind is gone, gone away

Stay awhile longer sweet tongue of fur and feather
Don't cut the white breast, I've been waiting for you here
I'm not what I used to be
Bigger and better and faster and wetter
And bigger and better and faster and better

 

indigo boy (TOP)

I am the last of the worshippers, I am the last of my kind
I am the last of the followers, I have found my peace of mind

Indigo boy, my little indigo boy
(what have they done to you)
What have they done to you
(did they take the milk right from your mouth)
Did they take the milk right from your mouth
We'll he's stealing your ball, my little indigo boy
Don't let them take it away, everyday
How, how can you take the words that way, they ask you
(they told him not to come, they take him away)
How can you take him away, will he learn to fall, yeah
(they told him that they needed you to stay)

I could be I could be I could be what you want me to be
(take me to the one)
I could be lost baby, will I fall away
(will you learn to fall)

Indigo boy, my little indigo boy
(what have they done to you)
What have they done to you
(did they take the milk right from your mouth)
Did they take the milk right from your mouth
We'll he's stealing your ball, my little indigo boy
(it's your ball)
Don't let them take it away
(take it away, you need it everyday)

Indigo boy, my little indigo boy
(what have they done to you)
What have they done to you
(did they take the milk right from your mouth)
Did they take the milk right from your mouth
We'll he's stealing your ball, my little indigo boy
Don't let them take it away
(you need that shit everyday, everyday, everyday)

When I fall away, you'll look good at the edges

 

swallow me (TOP)

The slowest melodies coated me
Soothing rhythms stoked the fire in my belly
Music is the man that made a woman out of me
The purest voices call to me, deafening as the cry of 10,000 babies
Music was the lamb that made a lion out of me

Long as I have my voice, I don't need arms to hold
I never need arms to hold me, swallow me

Recognizing, realizing
Recognize between the lines of what you feel and what you be
You can be so lost and so found
Oh, deep inside of me, swallow me

The composition fractured me
Yet I pieced into the girl I long to be
When I fall apart that's when the notes will swallow me

Long as I have my voice, I don't need arms to hold
Long as you have your voice, you don't need arms to hold
You'll never need arms to hold you
You'll never need arms to hold me

Recognizing, realizing
Recognize between the lines of what you feel and what you be
You can be so lost and so found
Oh, deep inside of me, swallow me

Recognize, realize, utilizing
Oh, swallow me

Utilize, recognize, realize in you and me and these arms belong to you
It's all inside of you, it's all inside of me
You look but you don't see, it's deep inside of you, deep inside of me

Swallow me


o.g. bitch (TOP)

I am the original bitch, I am the original whore
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore
I am the original witch, I am the original whore
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore

I suppose you think that you know me now
Yeah, I bet you've got it all figured out
And you try and pick apart the shit that I do
All the while the quest for fame has got you
You're so vein, you don't even notice that corruption surrounds you
You don't even notice somebody set their arms around you

You're just waiting for me to drown
So no one knows that you stole my whole sound
And yet you're grinning when I come around
You fake ass bitch
[2x]

I am the original bitch, I am the original whore
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore
(I know, I know you love me)
I am the original witch, I am the original whore
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore

How kind of you to offer what you think a woman should do or say
Maybe if you weren't so self-righteous,
You would not have such a hard time getting laid

Whatever you have to say out loud to convince yourself that you're right
Oh it's just too bad you carry no conviction in your so-called revelations,
Your pedantic conversations shed no light

Oh you're just waiting for me to drown
So no one knows that you stole my whole sound
And yet you're grinning when I come around
You fake ass bitch
[2x]

I am the original bitch, I am the original whore (yeah, yeah)
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore
(You know you love me)
I am the original witch (I am), I am the original whore (yeah, yeah)
I am the girl that you just won't admit you adore

 

i love you (TOP)

I love you...... i love you, now i know.
You said good-bye..... but i can't let you go
And i need you...... i need you in my life.
And if you go i'll be so blue,
because i know that you love me too.
And could you really sleep at night
if i wasn't by your side?
How could your body keep warm
until the return of daylight?

I love you...... and i've never been more sure.
And there aint nothing you can do to change my mind.
I am ready to be yours.
There might have been a face before..... but it was never as beautiful as yours.
I want to see it every morning when i rise,
and every night, oh i........ i love you.

I love you, i love you, i love you now i know.
You said good-bye... but i cannot, i will not let you go.
And i need you, i need you, i need you in my life.
And if you go i'll be so blue....
Because i know, because i know.... that you love me
you love me, you love me too, you love me...... la la la......

I don't wanna love you..... but i can't help lovin' you.


we r in need of a musical revolution (TOP)

I'm so sick and tired of the shit on the radio
and MTV, they only play the same thing
no matter where I go
I see Ashanti in the video
I want some thing more

We are in need of a musical ReVoLuTioN!
We are in need of....

How can you make your way through the world today
when everybody is so angry?
And what we HEAR affects our HEARTS...
there's got to be a better way to communicate
so show your LOVE not hate

We are in need of a musical ReVoLuTioN!
(we're so tired of the same old)
We are in need of some spiritual evolution
(we're so tired of the same old, same old)

We are in need of love
We are in need of love

I'm calling, calling, I'm calling out
calling you
Doesn't anybody wanna do something new?

I'm calling all creators in the movement
It's time to offer a solution to the dilution of what we love
And the greats would be so disappointed
'Cause we've sold our souls for what we don't own anymore...

We are in need of LOVE
Lets start a musical ReVoLuTioN!
(we're so tired of the same old)
We are in need of some lyrical evolution
(we're so tired of the same old, same old)

I'm so sick and tired of the SHIT on the radio
and MTV they only play the same thing
No matter where I go
I see Ashanti in the video
I want something
'Cause I'm sick and tired of the shit on the radio
and MTV they only play the same thing
no matter where I go
I see Britney on my video screen
I WANT SOMETHING MORE

Lets start a musical ReVoLuTioN!
I want something more
Lets start a musical ReVoLuTioN

Tell me why....
A grown man can RAPE a little girl
but we STILL hear his SHIT on the radio
A grown-ass man can videotape a little girl
but we still see his mug up on our video screens?

I want something more......
I want something.

 

everyday is a holiday (with you) (TOP)

I met him on sunday
I loved him by tuesday afternoon.
Woke up on friday
And changed my whole life to make some room.
Around a quarter to two I have remembered all my lines
I'll say "When I think of you, You're like my favourite song... or that melody, that melody I love"
And it goes: La da da da da..da da da

Hopped on the metro and I make my way home
but I can't get him out of my mind
No matter just how hard I try
And if the rumours are true
then I can look forward to some better days and getaways..... so nice
Cause when I am with you
You're the crescendo to that melody that melody I love

We'll have better days and getaways cause everyday is a holiday with you

You've gotta let me know
I gotta know for sure
Don't leave me out in the cold
I've gotta know for sure
lalalalalalalala....

When I think of you
I see better days and getaways cause everyday is a holiday with you.

 

gone (TOP)

Why would you stay if its killing us both just to be here?
There's no more room to grow and you wont find yourself 'till you leave me.
It's a beautiful world outside these walls,
and i love you too much to hold you down
with my light shine.....
and its blinding you...so
G'on....get away.....leave me be
'cause i dont wanna see your face around here.

Now don't complicate it,
I don't have it in me to hate you.
I was meant to be your freedom.
I just want to be your faerie.
And I try to teach you, but I can only stay for one more day
then i am....
Gone....get away....leave me be
cause I dont wanna see your face around here.

There aint nothing here for you if you stay.
And its so hard to hear myself say
"go away"
instead of " baby please stay just one more day"
I barely have the strength to leave you
and you don't wanna be with me
So go on (just get gone)
and leave me alone...

cee-lo: that isn't true
girl, how could you say what you not mean?
oh we used to have such a hot thing
and I just cant go anywhere and be not seen
but for the love of you theres places i have stopped being
and don't make me start about all the sweets and all the shopping
I mean God I even went out and got a ring
And its no cliche
Love is blind its in you Literally- stop seeing
But when you truly love someone, girl, you wouldn't be shamed
And if I did not see you there, girl, I wouldn't have came
You must have some strong shoulders 'cause thats where you be putting the blame
Whoever said fucked up your head
Talking bout if you had love then you wouldn't have pain.

 

i drive alone (TOP)

Can't move on... but i can't go home
and I'm not so strong... but I'll make my way
to the place I know
inside my heart
where I used to go to get brave
and I don't want to be lost anymore.

gotta find my way back home.

I don't know where I g0 - but I know I drive alone.
I terribly miss you....
more than you'll ever know.
You've got to come back somehow.
You've got to come back somehow.

Can't move on... but i can't go home
and I'm not so strong... but I'll make my way
to the place I know
inside my heart
where I used to go
to get brave and....

 

this lull-a-bye (TOP)

And if I give you what you want
and everything you need.... honey,
could you deliver that to me?
Could you give yourself completely to a love like this
and all it can bring?
A picket fence? A diamond ring?
Well I really did not think so......

Just say 'goodbye'
Don't ask me why
I'll listen to this lull-a-bye
Don't say you'll try
after tonight
All that i am is this lull-a-bye

If I am all that you desire
then why are you never ever satisfied?
I could give the world and you'd still cry your refrain
again and again.....
And i might stay if you would bend....
But I really did not think so.

Just say 'goodbye'
Don't ask me why
I'll listen to this lull-a-bye
Don't say you'll try
after tonight
All that I am is this...
this lull-a-bye, this lull-a-bye, this lull-a-bye.....

 

amber and tiger's eye (TOP)

Amber...... tiger's eye
inset in your honey skin
dandelions and fireflies
akin to your devil's grin

Remind me...... remind me
of who I forgot to be.
Replace me..... replace me
back where i ought to be,
back where i need to be.
Will your spirit be diminished
in the presence of others.. i wonder?
Hold fast now
hold fast now
hold fast now....

Amber..... tiger's eye
inset in your honey skin
dandelions and fireflies
akin to your devil's grin....
mmmmnnnnn........

blanket me in you (never is so soon) (TOP)

In how long will you go from here?
Because I want, I want to love you
And how far will you stray from me
When I will not let you go?

Indifference (yeah, yeah), you gave it all to me
And now it is clear to see that
You have no intention of ever coming back to me
Never is so soon, and I will miss you

How does it find me only when I'm needy, only when I'm lonely?
(How does it find me?)
How does it search out, what are the signals?
Why do I give off such thunderous signals?
Why do I give in, why do I give up?
I am a reject of love
And where are my friends now, where are my friends now?
Where is my lover now?

Blanket me in you
Cover me in gold and blue
Reason need not follow you
Blanket me in you
I can still smell you on me

In how long will you go from here?
Because I want, I want to love you
And if I gather all my sorrow
Would you still love me tomorrow?
(It won't be so bad)

I could make your sickness end
I once had my fortune read
"You won't be so sad" he said
I wonder if it's true

Blanket me in you
Cover me in gold and blue
Reason need not follow you
Blanket me in you
I can still smell you on me

So I can still smell you on me

thank heaven for you (for book) (TOP)

Thank heaven for you and the way you take care of me
You hide my secret so well, thank heaven for you
No matter storm to come your way, whatever season in this house, day to day
You've weathered them all and you are so strong

So thank heaven for you (you're my angel)

Whenever I get lost, you never let me disappear for long
You always bring me water you never let me falter

So thank heaven for you (you're my angel)

 

if tha mood (TOP)

Remember when we used to?.. We can do that again...
I know I said it was over but if you ever wanna come over
I think I got what it takes to make you feel nice
Because you gave yourself to another
But I suppose you haven't forgotten what my love tastes like
And she won't fuck you like I do and you know that it's true cause
I have what she hasn't got and I remember all your spots so

If tha mood should hit ya and ya wanna, baby I don't mind
A little taste may relieve the tension I feel inside

Curl up in my cozy web this unbelievably delicious bed
Oh, don't say no, that's not how this should go
I've thought about you often, this feeling hasn't gone rotten
Let's take a spin round that old block again you say
She won't fuck you like I did, she's not into that wild shit and
I have what she hasn't got...really? Well then

So if tha mood should hit ya and ya wanna, baby I don't mind
A little taste may relieve the tension I feel inside

Shakari Nite: you always know what things to do to keep me wanting you,
and also all the things to say to keep me comin your way
due to the beauty preferred, its hard for me to be true to my girl
cant be trust wit you in my world (i'm glued to the kush, ya heard?)
no gas, my tanks empty, i'm stuck in your town
the plan's to gently buckle you down and fuck you now...i wanna fuck you now
only the truth is wit me, now im phenen to screw you swiftly
now i don't mean to be rude with tha lips b.
i'm guessin the mood just hit me

If tha mood should hit ya and ya wanna, baby I don't mind
A little taste may relieve the tension I feel inside

bad boy clyde (TOP)

(lyrics by graph nobel: for those who dont know her....shes doc's new artist and she's recently signed to epic....she collaborated with me on a few tunes on this album...and shes really dope....she must be cause i've always been very staunch about writing my own lyrics....but she wrote the second verse for fastlane and the second verse for if tha mood too....shes pretty fresh, i must say. i felt this song in paticular because i thought it was, sadly, a social reality for a lot of women...and that a lot of women would relate to it...and i have dated a "clyde" as well. I also dig the fact that the song musically is so laid back and happy sounding, while the lyric's sadness contrast that mood)

She knew this love would break her heart
But rebellion always turned her on
She liked the dangerous type, pullin' stick up heists.
Waitin' for him to come around so they could be alone
And she would say…

Bad Boy Clyde, you know you drive me wild
Put away your gun, why don't you play with me?
Rollin' with your boys, you're always on the run
For just this once, why can't you stay with me?

She had a gut feeling, call it intuition
Wishing that it would subside
It's just a day like any other, there's no need to cause a fight
He has to go, his boys are counting on him, you know
Oh my my…

Bad Boy Clyde, you know you drive me wild
Put away your gun, why don't you play with me?
Rollin' with your boys, you're always on the run
For just this once, why can't you stay with me?
[2x]

Thinkin' about, thinkin' about the life that we have
You're always on the run (you were always running around)
Thinkin' about what you take for granted
And if you cared about yourself, you'd let go baby

(The cycle never ends)

I love me, I love me some bad bad boys

(i've decided to include the third verse which doesnt actually appear on the record....you see....clyde gets shot and killed.....but i decided that i would use the silence to imply his death...as oppossed to being so obvious about it...but this way you will all know what really happened at the end of the story)

"but he had to go...his boys, you know?
and there was trouble that night for sure.
when those trigger happy cops
started bustin' shots..oh no....bad boy clyde..."

no more guns....no more guns
stay with me.....

No more guns

Bad Boy Clyde, you know you drive me wild
Put away your gun, why don't you play with me?
Rollin' with your boys, you're always on the run
For just this once, why can't you stay with me?
[2x]

 

beautiful lie (TOP)

I don't wanna write another love song
I don't wanna open up my eyes
I don't wanna see what you have done to me
I don't wanna know what's under your disguise
And I don't need to see what's on the inside
Let me enjoy this cause it was all just a beautiful lie

I just wanna keep on believing every little thing you ever said to me
All was true, and I want to be sure you adore me too
I don't wanna know when it ended for you
I want to be able to sleep at night
I want to hold my head up high
I want to feel like you were always mine
But it was all just a beautiful lie
It was all just a wonderful terrible wonderful...

Why'd you give all of your love, just to take it all away?
Baby when I needed you, I didn't know you'd let me go and now I feel like I can't breathe
I need you to lie to me

I want to be able to sleep at night
I want to hold my head up high
I want to feel like you were always mine
But it was all just a beautiful, terrible, wonderful, horrible, beautiful lie
And it's so easy to believe

I don't wanna write another love song
I don't wanna open up my eyes
I don't wanna see what you have done to me

I don't wanna write another love song
I don't wanna open up my eyes
I don't wanna see what you have done to me...

 

junglebook (TOP)

It's like I told you, I'm getting away from this town
I'll be traveling alone, adventure is calling my name
And if you want to, you can follow me
I'm gonna go to the jungle and build me a home

We could live right (in the jungle baby)
Stay up all night (all night)
Kiss by moonlight (and you could kiss me)
It would be tight

We'll have a family and I will protect you from harm
We could get wilder than all the animals
And I will try to keep it simple if that's what you want
I know you're scared baby, I know you're proud
I know your girl, she was fooling around
She had your head under water your heart under fire
And I've decided she didn't know how to love you

We could live right (we could live right)
Stay up all night (stay up all night)
Kiss by moonlight (you can kiss me)
It would be tight (it would be so right)
We could get by (we could get by)
Start a new life (start a new life)
Dance with fireflies (in the jungle baby)
We could get by (in the jungle baby)

Can't hide from the man in the moon, he's watching
Make love like animals (baby), I'm feeling cannibal
And I'll eat you alive...

Jungle, in the jungle…

We could live right (we could live right)
Stay up all night (stay up all night)
Kiss by moonlight (you can kiss me)
It would be tight (it would be so right)
We could get by (we could get by)
Start a new life (start a new life)
Dance with fireflies (in the jungle baby)
We could get by (in the jungle baby)

We could live right (oh my precious little boy)
Stay up all night (just rest your weary head)
Kiss by moonlight (it's gonna be all right)
It would be tight
We could get by (hush now my precious little boy)
Start a new life (and rest your weary head)
Dance with fireflies (it's gonna be all right)
We could get by

 

wikked lil grrrls (TOP)

Wicked little girls, kissed the boys and made them cry
Raisin' double trouble every time we pass them by
And some might say we're wicked little girls
With curves and kissers and pearly whites
You better keep an eye on your boys and lock em up tight

You think that I'm a lady? You think that I won't fight?
I'll make your eyes shine like a liliqoi moonlit night whoa oh
You think you're my one and only, only?
Sophisticated Yoni told me:
"You gots to love livin' while you livin' or you won't love life"

I'm the high pimpstress, I'm honeybrown
I'm the baddest bitch to ever hit this town
Cornbread woman, yo ho and a bottle of yum
I'm gonna have a party with my body, do ya wanna come?
Well alright

Cause we're such wicked little girls, kissed the boys and made them cry
Raisin' double trouble every time we pass them by
And some might say we're wicked little girls
With curves and kissers and pearly whites
You better keep an eye on your boys and lock em up tight

Hey girls, I'm back again, that vixen no bell and that Bride of Frank…
Bend the rules, headline "bad news", it's the Sisters of Salem, they on the loose
Shakin' her caboose like Dottie, Octopussy like a James Bond hottie
Smokin' like a Cuban, with a whiff like a rumor, better know what you're doing
Or get kicked out right away, gonna hide away
I'd advise you not to play with those

Wicked little girls, kissed the boys and made them cry
Raisin' double trouble every time we pass them by
And some might say we're wicked little girls
With curves and kissers and pearly whites
You better keep an eye on your boys and lock em up tight
[2x]

Here come those devils, cheeky sneaky rebels
Every day and every night, hot steppin is what we like

Wicked little girls, kissed the boys and made them cry
Raisin' double trouble every time we pass them by
Some might say we're wicked little girls
With curves and kissers and pearly whites
You better keep an eye on your boys and lock em up tight
[2x]

 

gone (TOP)

Why would you stay if its killing us both just to be here?
There's no more room to grow and you wont find yourself 'till you leave me.
It's a beautiful world outside these walls,
and i love you too much to hold you down
with my light shine.....
and its blinding you...so
G'on....get away.....leave me be
'cause i dont wanna see your face around here.

Now don't complicate it,
I don't have it in me to hate you.
I was meant to be your freedom.
I just want to be your faerie.
And I try to teach you, but I can only stay for one more day
then i am....
Gone....get away....leave me be
cause I dont wanna see your face around here.

There aint nothing here for you if you stay.
And its so hard to hear myself say
"go away"
instead of " baby please stay just one more day"
I barely have the strength to leave you
and you don't wanna be with me
So go on (just get gone)
and leave me alone...

cee-lo: that isn't true
girl, how could you say what you not mean?
oh we used to have such a hot thing
and I just cant go anywhere and be not seen
but for the love of you theres places i have stopped being
and don't make me start about all the sweets and all the shopping
I mean God I even went out and got a ring
And its no cliche
Love is blind its in you Literally- stop seeing
But when you truly love someone, girl, you wouldn't be shamed
And if I did not see you there, girl, I wouldn't have came
You must have some strong shoulders 'cause thats where you be putting the blame
Whoever said fucked up your head
Talking bout if you had love then you wouldn't have pain.

 

my torture (TOP)

Set myself on fire, anything to turn your head
I won't deny this, I'm burning from the things you said
Now you got me running around and all that I have found is I can't afford him
All I got is spare change cause he was my fortune
My torture

Had myself a lover, I liked him cause of all of the books that he read
And he was like no other boy that I had ever met before
And I loved all the things that he said
I wanted to heal him, I did not plan on staying as long
I didn't think I would need him so how did he become
My torture

My, my, my

My torture, it's always the sweetest thing
Where do I go? What do I do with this heart?
My torture, my torture

I want you to comfort me
I want you to stop disturbing my sleep
I really thought you were my king
I thought you were my king
I want it to stop hurting so bad
So bad, so so bad...

 

melancholy melody (TOP)

Leave me alone
I just want to lay here in my room and let myself cry
I apologize if I've disappointed you
I got lost in my darkness and the light hurts my eyes

I know you're counting on me to feed all of our families
But I just need to be on my own for a little while
Cause I can't stop singing these melancholy melodies
So until then I'll hide

I feel tired all the time, yeah, this weight is exhausting
I cannot please everyone, least of all me
I have no more to give you, it's all ready been stolen
Tell me, what's left for me, a melancholy melody

I know you're counting on me to feed all of our families
But I just need to be on my own for a little while
Cause I can't stop singing these melancholy melodies
So until then I'll hide, I'll hide

Well you think I'm scared to write
That I've got nothing left inside and I'm losing all my fire
But it still burns bright, just not on your command

You think I'm scared to write
That I've got nothing left inside and I'm losing all my fire
That I'm losing all my fire, am I losing all my fire?
Still burns bright, brighter yeah
Leave me alone, just wanna lay here alone in my room and let myself cry

I know you're counting on me to feed all of our families
But I just need to be on my own for a little while
So stop calling my phone, please don't come around my home
I just wanna be alone

I know you're counting on me to feed all of our families
But I just can't stop singing these melancholy melodies, yeah
I just wanna be, I just wanna be…alone

 

fastlane (TOP)

jemeni: "you can tie my hands behind my back
and lick your initials in my neck.....foreplay does nothing for me, but commitment makes me wet.
i already know you're having an affair with words....but boo...i'm married to it....my vocabulary leaves most men wary...i need to know....can you get into it?"

This is so torturous, I know that I shouldn't, but I can not resist
Just what is it that you are weaving that's keeping my body from leaving?
Your presence is lingering longer than I thought it would
And I feel that I should succumb to your majik cause I know you're just as…

Strong as an earthquake, bright as a shinin' star
I remember the fragrance, I just couldn't believe I'd come so far for
Love in the fast lane, as my sanity quickly passed me by
Yeah I left it all behind

Battling, battling, these feelings are traveling
Quicker than a flick of lightning, you were tightening
Round my heart and won't slow down
Burning hotter than the world underground
I'm feeling like cupid's fool, what to do?
And the arrow's headed straight for you you
I don't wanna love another, gotta keep this undercover
Brother I'm about to explode, I am…

Strong as an earthquake, bright as a shinin' star
I remember the fragrance, I just couldn't believe I'd come so far for
Love in the fast lane, as my sanity quickly passed me by
Yeah I left it all behind

jelleestone chats....

jemeni: "would you let me lick you with alliteration and tie you up with similies?
give you pain and pleasure with solliquies until you beg me for release....
i think we can have the ebonic plague solution...lace me with your lexiconic seed and in 9 months we can start to raise the revolution"

Strong as an earthquake, bright as a shinin' star
I remember the fragrance, I just couldn't believe I'd come so far for
Love in the fast lane, as my sanity quickly passed me by
Yeah I left it all behind
[2x]

 

dragonfly (TOP)

Find me, find me in an open sky
And then wish me, wish me far from you and free
Swallow whole the love I give you, then give it back to me
Tell me, what am I supposed to do with the mess you've made out of me?
Dragonfly, Dragonfly

Give me, give me back my wings so I can fly
And then catch me, catch each breath right from me when you smile
Swallow whole the love I give you, then give it back to me
Tell me, what am I supposed to do with the mess you've made out of me?
Dragonfly, Dragonfly


balmes (better life) (TOP)

I think I need a change of scenery, warm water
Sunshine on my foot, just like my daydream
And on the nightly, everything is hot and sticky
But it's ok, cause no one plans to sleep here anyway

Because we all want a better life, I think I found it in this place
Everthing is so sublime, you should come with me
We all want a better life, I think I found you just in time
And I'm feeling so divine, we all want a better life

And I'm not going home, I'm not ever going home

I think I need a change of scenery, yeah
I think I need you to be here with me

We all want a better life, I think I found it in this place
Everthing is so sublime, you should come with me
We all want a better life, I think I found you just in time
And I'm feeling so divine, we all want a better life

Come...oh...come...better life...

 

nearly civilized (TOP)

Don't love me quietly, do it with intensity or you'll miss the point
Do it with every sinew strained or there's no love to be gained

Cause we are nearly civilized and I could almost love you now
We will throw this building up just so we can tear it down again

I don't know how you found me but you wrapped yourself around me
I thought it was warm
And soon enough I found me too immersed in mediocrity

Cause we are nearly civilized and I could almost love you
We will throw this building up just so we can tear it down again

 

windmills of your mind (TOP)

Like a tunnel that you follow to a tunnel of its own
Down a hollow to a cavern where the sun has never shone
Like a door that keeps revolving in a half forgotten dream
Or the ripples from a pebble someone tosses in a stream
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping past the minutes on its face
And the world is like an apple whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind

Keys that jingle in your pocket, words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly, was it something that you said?
Lovers walk along a shore and leave their footprints in the sand
Is the sound of distant drumming just the fingers of your hand?
Pictures hanging in a hallway and the fragment of this song
Half remembered names and faces but to whom do they belong?
When you knew that it was over, you were suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning to the color of his hair

Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending or beginning on an ever spinning reel
As the images unwind
Like the circles that you find in the windmills of your mind
