I'm known to have a heart that love couldn't find I use to come and go no thought of what I left behind but now some how I've grown to see the world through brand new eyes a better world that you've shown to me yes When you were gone felt like the stars were pointless to shine and my my days dragged on with out a cause or reason to find baby but on my own i'm just a lonely waste of time that should be spent with you faithfully

(feat. Faith Evans)

You just make me feel so goooood
Feels Good!
Now, now, now, now girl I'd like to know
Exactly what the deal is
I don't like to lose control
Noooo
But this is crazy what I'm feeling

I know cause I keep tryn'a hide
How it feels when you're around me
I see your smile and I get high
I try to fight it but
I can't see no reason why

[Chorus:]
Cause you just make me feel good
I feel good
You give me little butterflies
You just make me feel good
I feel good
Not like them other boys
Cause you don't even try

I used to love my single life
You see it fits my disposition
But compared to what you put inside me
I'm second guessing what I'm missing
Oooooooooooooooo

Now baby we can call it love
But let's not break it with a label
Nooooooo
Let's take it how it comes
I'll show you all my cards
And keep em face up on the table

You just make me feel good
I can't
But when I'm by your side
You just make me feel good
I feel good
It's kind of crazy but, I can't get you off my mind

Now we've got time let's take it slow
And where it leads I don't know
Let's have some fun
Keep it on the low
You know you got my time, that's for sure
This thing is so strong girl, you're blowing my mind
You got that swagger boy, I love your vibe
Feels so good
Gotta play with your mind

You just make me feel good
I feel good
You give me little butterflies
You just make me feel good
I feel good
Not like them other boys
Cause you don't even try

You just make me feel good
I can't
But when I'm by your side
You just make me feel good
I feel good
It's kind of crazy but, I can't get you off my mind

. . .


Verse 1-
Two years since you walked away from me
Since all of our scattered dreams
Were just thrown away
I'm finally gettin back to what I used to be
Share my pain with my family
Think I'm on my way

I can sleep at night,
I don't reach for you when I wake up
But it's taken some time
I can live my life
Without praying that we could make up
I'm movin on, I'm feeling strong inside

-Chorus 1-
But sometimes I cry, babe
When I'm all alone
With this heart of mine
Sometimes I cry, babe
Although you've been gone
For a long, long time

-Verse 2-
Heard you're moving in with someone new
I hope all your dreams come true
And you'll both be happy, yeah
Been long enough for me to take a look around
I've met a girl, we've been hangin out
She's been good for me

But when we're makin love
She don't take me there like you used to
And it hurts when I lie (when I lie baby)
Help me understand how to push you out,
Forget you and let you go,
Cuz Lord knows I've tried, yeah

-Chorus 2-
But sometimes I cry, babe
Been at all that hurtin
For a long, long time (yes, I have babe)
Sometimes I cry, babe
Ain't nothin workin
For this pain of mine

-Bridge-
I'll just have to fake it
Until I can make it
There's a smile on my face, yeah
But I'm broken inside

. . .


What's the use of trying?
It never seems to work
The love just doesn't love you
Is the lesson you've learned.
You've mended broken pieces,
At least dozen times,
To take another chance now,
You see no reason why.

[Chorus:]
But there's always a reason for falling in love,
And it's always the darkest, before your light comes
Like the winter believes in the promise of a sun,
I guess there's always a reason for falling in love.

I'm praying your existence, and something that will pass,
Like when you said our first kiss, will surely be our last.
Girl, I understand you,
More than you believe,
Like you my heart was broken,
But you helped me to see...

[Chorus:]
That is always a reason for falling in love,
And it's always the darkest, before your light comes
Like the winter believes in the promise of a sun,
I guess there's always a reason for falling in love.

Is a lifetime of tears we can both leave behind?
Cause in so many ways we've been broken inside.
All the questions you ask, we'll find answers together in time.
All we need is to believe that...

[Chorus:]
There's always a reason for falling in love,
And it's always the darkest, before your light comes
Like the winter believes in the promise of a sun,
I guess there's always a reason for falling in love.
Always a reason for falling in love,
And it's always the darkest, before the light comes.
Before the light!

. . .


Every day it gets harder
Just the cost of livin' pullin' me down
I try to stay above water
But these bills got me, 'bout to drown

I can't keep livin' this life
Robbed and beat up but still ...
I just been fightin' this fight
But I don't know what's the point of it all

I'll keep a positive mind
But it's hard to flow
When your cash is low
I'm workin' days and nights
Still I can't get up out of this hole

Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the last
And struggle all through the middle
Every month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last
And struggle all through the middle

M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me
Ain't nothin' movin' 'cause I keep losin'
M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me
Ain't nothin' movin' 'cause I keep losin'

They make us know that they own us
Though I swear it's more than slavery
They give each other a bonus
While our children live in poverty
What a shame, what a shame

I keep on teachin' my kids
You work hard, you'll go far in this life
But the reality is
I'm slavin' on to the bone to survive

I'd like to take you away, girl
But I just can't see
How that's gonna be
Don't like to slave in this way, girl
Somebody ..., set her free

Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the last
And struggle all through the middle
Every month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last
(Workin' hard, workin' quite hard)

Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the last
And then I struggle through the middle
Every month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last
And struggle all through the middle

M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me
Not for me, not for me
M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me
Ain't nothin' movin', I keep losin'

I'll keep a positive mind
But it's hard to flow
When your cash is low
I'm workin' days overtime
Still I can't get up out of this hole

Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the last
And struggle all through the middle
Every month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last
On my back strugglin'

Because I gets paid on the first, paid on the last
I just struggle through the middle
Every month I gets paid on the first, paid on the last
On my back strugglin', strugglin'

M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me
Not a damn thing movin', no
M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me
Baby, baby

M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me
Ain't nothin' movin' 'cause I keep losin'
M O N E Y never seem to multiply for me
Money, money, M O N E Y

(feat. Chrisette Michele)

Girl it's time I confess that my mind's been a mess, since I met you lady
You got a vibe on your... sex appeal overlord, it's kinda special baby
I wanna give you all I got, I be lying to say I not, I've been intimidated
You're doing more than the most, living high coast to coast
I'm still trying to make it, yeah

I don't really need a man scared to take control, I'm scared baby
He gotta just tell me how it's gonna be, how it's gonna be
If you can't step up boy, you better just step out
Cause if you want what's real, you gotta come for real
I don't know what I need to do but I sure wanna get with you
Come and take it if you want it, I really really wanna take it
Strong and tender, finest hair, gotta have you for myself
Come and take it if you want it

Oh you'll be so surprised that many men just pass me by
They think I'm spoken for
Or at times my success makes them feel less about themselves
So they want out my door
As you can tell I'm a queen, nobody needs to rescue me
So don't get me wrong, no
But if you're down for a try, if you can stimulate my mind, give the girl a call

I don't really need a man scared to take control, I'm scared baby
He gotta just tell me how it's gonna be, how it's gonna be
If you can't step up boy, you better just step out
Cause if you want what's real, you gotta come for real
I don't know if you feel it, but I'm surely thigging you
Come and take it If you want it, all I need to hear baby
And I don't know if I'm out of line, but do I need to make your mind
Come and take it if you want it,
I don't know what I need to do, but I'm trying to get with you
Come and take it if you want it, I'm tryin I'm tryin to come and get
Strong and tender, finest hair, gotta have you for myself
Come and take it if you want it, yeah babe

I've been watching every move you make and gain you fave
Gain my place, I've been hanging on all the words you say to get you babe
You wanna get it baby? I don't wanna have to wait no more to make that call
I'm coming over girl, let me take it girl, all night long
It's that how you feel, I've been watching every move you make and gain you place
I got this real
I'm hanging onto every word you say to get you babe
I don't wanna have to wait no more to make that call
That's how you feel
I'm coming over girl, let me take it girl, all night long
I ain't looking for a man scared to take control, I'm scared baby
He gotta just tell me how it's gonna be, how it's gonna be
I'm a tell you girl
If you can't step up boy, you better just step out
I know what you need baby
Cause if you want what's real, you gotta come for real
I don't know if you feel it, but I'm surely thigging you
Come and take it If you want it, all I need to hear baby
And I don't know if I'm out of line, but do I need to make your mind
Come and take it if you want it,
I don't know what I need to do, but I'm trying to get with you
Come and take it if you want it, come on and take it
Strong and tender, finest hair, gotta have you for myself
Come and take it if you want it, yeah babe

Are you thinking what I mean?
I really do
Get on the point man
I see you think that you can just come and take it
You're the queen, I know what you need.
Do you mean that?
You know what I mean, I got what you need, yes I do
You can try to be my babe, come on take it, take it babe
You just know I'm a quest
Do you know I'm a queen?
I said do you know I'm a queen?

. . .


To feel good
We were switching,
We were switching up some time, babe.
Hey, oh!
Hey, I got a stupid hot girl,
Hey oh, oh!

It's feeling like it's been too long since we had a good time,
We've been talking about what's wrong,
Stir up what's been going right,
Every day the same all same,
Girl we need to stir it up!
Yeah!
I think it's time we had a change,
A little switch in luck.
And maybe we could find a spot or two for me and you!
Just you and me!
There ain't no problems on the dancing floor,
So let's hit the door!
That's all we need!
Girl you know I love to see you smile,
It drives me wild!
I know what you like, boy!
Life is only for the living,
So let's live it tonight!

[Chorus:]
Start stirring it up,
And you can take another look at me,
Start mixing it up,
A little change in the scenery!
Mix it up, girl!
Start stirring it up,
Cause we've been living in the days too long!
Start stir it up as the night comes!

I think I know what's on down town,
We've never been before.
And when it starts to winding down,
Hit it after set it for!
And maybe we could take a carriage ride
Underneath the city lights,
And girl we've been doing some in Rome,
Let's find a way and do it all right!
I propose a toast or two, for me and you!
It should glide us both.
For always making a little time for fun,
In the years that come.
Keep it... yeah!
Girl, we've got to switch it up some time,
To make it right,
If I'm gonna be the only one for the rest of your life.
Yeah!

[Chorus:]
Start stirring it up,
And you can take another look at me,
Stir it up, baby!
Start mixing it up,
A little change in the scenery!
Mix it up, girl!
Start stirring it up,
Cause we've been living in the days too long!
Start stirring it up as the night goes on!
Start stirring it up,
So we could see what's going down!
See what's going down!
Start living it up,
A little bit and take a look around!
Start shaking it up
And maybe we could find a spot or two!
Shake it, baby!
Start stirring it for the night is true!

When you get close to me,
I feel like picking a night of love!
When you get close to me,
Stir it up, baby!

[Chorus:]
Start stirring it up,
And you can take another look at me,
At me!
Start mixing it up,
A little change in the scenery!
Scenery!
Start stirring it up,
Cause we've been living in the days too long!
Too long!
Start stirring it up as the night goes on!
So we could see what's going down!
See what's going down!
Start living it up,
A little bit and take a look around!
Start shaking it up
And maybe we could find a spot or two!
Shake it, baby!
Start stirring it up fort the night is true!

When you get close to me,
I feel like picking a night of love!
When you get close to me,
Stir it up, baby!

(feat. India Benét)

Yeah, take me back
I wanna go back there
Mmmmmm yeah

[Verse 1]
Summer lovin, I remember falling once upon my history
Sun was shinin, you were in a hurry but nowhere that ya had to be
Some conversation for a while until we felt the magic grow (ooohh)
Thats when my summer came alive
but seasons come and seasons go (ooohh)
Tender kisses underneath the moonlight softly on your brown skin
Makin wishes, plans to spend our whole life
knowing that this time would end
And like the temperature outside our feelings and emotions rose
I dreamed id take you as my bride
but soon the autumn winds would blow (ooowoo)

[Chorus]
My summer love (oooohooohoooo)
I'm searchin for you (ooohooohoo)
Our time was only for a season
My heart remains true (mmm yeah)

[Verse 2]
I remember walkin on the boardwalk beaming from just holdin hands
We were runnin in between the raindrops, innocence that couldn't last
I close my eyes when I'm alone
and travel back to way back then (yes I do)
And like no other lover known, you make me feel alive again

[Chorus]
My summer love (ooohooohooo)
I'm searchin for you (ooohoohoo)
Our time was only for a season
My heart remains true
My summer love (ooohooohoo)
I'm lost without you (ooohoohoo)
So many years have past between us
I'm still your love fool

[Bridge 1]
Take me away from this life
To places where you end up mine
Can we go back to the best time of our lives

[Chorus]
My summer love (ooohoohoooo)
Girl, I still love you (yes I do)
Our time was only for a season
My heart remains true (I'll be true just for you)
My summer love (ooohooohooo)
I'm lost without you (oh I'm lost baby)
So many years have past between us
I'm still your love fool (woooo yea)

[Outro - India Benet]
Summer lovin, wish we could've made it last
Summer lovin, would you please come back to me again [2x]

. . .


There's a knock outside my door
It's you again!
There's a kiss that let's me know,
This love won't end.
There's a life, there's a touch and a smile
And we're making love,
And all is perfect in my lonely world again.
As we lay we make a plan for life together,
Holding on with all the might full worst or better,
I can't believe,
I can't conceive all the time that you're not with me,
But in a flash I'm in this lonely room again.

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna stay here lost in time,
I don't understand this heart of mine,
I keep letting go to fantasy,
Never letting go of you and me.
I don't wanna stay here lost without you!

There's a house upon the hill I hear the laughter,
And our children seem to grow each year much faster,
We're alone now in this emptiness and love still grows,
But only visions of a life that should have been.

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna stay here lost in time,
I don't understand this heart of mine,
I keep letting go to fantasy,
Never letting go of you and me.
I don't wanna stay here lost without you!

You are, the only one I'm holding down for always,
My heart, in the time of light, shinning bright in your...
So far,
I can't let go, I won't let go,
And that's why,
I will face reality till it brings you back to me.

[Chorus: x3]
I don't wanna stay here lost in time,
I don't understand this heart of mine,
I keep letting go to fantasy,
Never letting go of you and me.
I don't wanna stay here lost without you!

. . .


Turn away from your broken past
Get it 'cause I'm gettin' mine
I know the way where they live inside
Girl, we're runnin' out of time

Let the music delight
Be the wings on the flight
If it's heavier than me
'Cause I'm 'bout to fly

Keep the pace, baby, you've arrived
I can see it in your eyes

You're livin' the good life
Grab a drink, raise your glass
Don't it feel right?
Ride your wave, make it last

It's the good life
Nothin' holdin' you back
It's the good life
It's your life
So come on

Feel the love, let it overflow
Into every corner of your life, yeah
Turn it up, I'mma let them know
Keep it rockin' till the mornin' light, yeah

You've got only one shot
Give it all that you got
We can do this forever
But I'm 'bout to try

Stop and stir all they want it tonight
If they ever ask you why

Tell them this is the good life
If you dream it again
Don't it feel right?
Say goodbye to your past

It's the good life
Baby, no turnin' back
It's the good life
It's your life

This is the good life
Grab a drink, raise your glass
Don't it feel right?
Ride your wave, make it last

It's the good life
No holdin' back
Good life
It's your life

So many nights, I'm alone
Dreamin', waitin' for my moment in time
Now I can shine on my own
Thinkin' all this world is already mine

Can't shake me down, feel this crown
I'mma bother like never before
Don't turn this down, look around
Take a chance on this life that you've been waiting for

Can't you feel that it's your time to shine?
Make it real, just live your dream tonight

Yes, you're livin' the good life
Grab a drink, raise your glass
Don't it feel right?
Ride your wave, make it last

It's the good life
Holdin' you back
Good life
It's your life

Tell them this is the good life
If you dream it again
Don't it feel right?
Say goodbye to your past

It's the good life
No turnin' back
It's the good life
It's your life

This is the good life
(Feel right)
It feels so good
(Good life)
(Good life)
It's your life

Good life
Feel right
(Feels good, feels good)
Good life
Good life

Turn away from your broken past
Get it 'cause I'm gettin' mine
I know the way where they live inside

. . .


Something's wrong
Something's wrong

It's a beautiful life I've been livin' so far
Everything been goin' my way
I'm drivin' top down the coast in one of my cars
On another lovely day

My money's been cold
(Yeah)
Stackin' up nice
Ain't no reason to complain
But I don't feel like I sound, I keep comin' down
And I feel it's gettin' strong, there's something wrong

Something's wrong with me
Something's wrong with me
Something's wrong with me
Something's wrong with me

Avert my eyes as I traveled inroad
Are people beggin' on the street
Don't mess up my vibe and show another sick child
Ain't have enough to eat

See, I should feel fine 'cause I'm the fortunate kind
Struggle ain't affectin' me
But even when I smile, something inside
Said smile don't belong 'cause something wrong

Something's wrong with me
Something's wrong with me
Something's wrong with me
Something's wrong with me

There's a pain I've denied
I can try but I can't deflect it
Can I really be up
When the whole world is down?

You took time to realize
Maybe one of us is connecting
And can't nothing be right
When it's wrong all around

What about you?
Yeah, what about you?
Oh, something's wrong
Something's wrong

There's a pain I've denied
I can try but I can't deflect it
Can I really be up
When the whole world is down?

You took time to realize
Maybe one of us is connecting
Can't nothing be right
When it's wrong all around

Something's wrong with me
Something's wrong with me
Something's wrong with me
Something's wrong with me

To my father
Something wrong
To my mother
Something wrong

All the children
Something wrong
Lord, all the babies
Something wrong

I got money
Something wrong
Got my honey
Something wrong

Easy living
There's something wrong
And what am I giving back?
Something wrong

To my father
Something wrong
And to my mother
Something wrong

All the children
Something wrong
Lord, all the babies
Something wrong

I got money
Something wrong
And got my honey
Something wrong

Easy living
Something wrong
And what am I giving back?
Something's wrong with me

To my father
Something wrong
To my mother
Something wrong
All the children

What we gonna do, what we gonna do, yeah?
Help the babies, don't leave them dyin'
Think about more than yourself, yeah
...
Somebody's cryin' right now
Your child is dying now, oh, no
