If I really wanna go out tonight
I never used to go out without ya
Not sure I remember how to

Gonna be late Gonna be late
But, all my girls gon have to wait 'cos
I dont know if I like my outfit
I Tried everything in my closet

(Chorus)
Nothin feels right when Im not with you
Sick of this dress and these Jimmy Choos
Takin them off 'cos I feel a fool
Tryna dress up when Im missin you
Imma step out of this lingerie
Curl up in a ball with somethin' Hanes
In bed I lay
With nothin but cha T-shirt on
With nothin' but cha T-shirt on

Oh oo oh oo oh oh
Oh oo oh oo oh oh
Oh oo oh oo oh oh
Oh oo oh oo oh oh

When I, was young, and the light, had only begun;
To shine, down on me, I've been blind, now I've started to see

I don't have to be right
There's no power in empty passion
Lots it takes for the fight
Find the strength to be out of passion
Everybody knows me
You're the one who won't hear my story
Give it to ya for free
You're the man who won't share my glory

Sing it out
Play it out
For the first time these words are spoken
Meet some thin
So I can love again
Shout it out
Turn around
Tell the whole world the spell is broken
Break these chains
I'm only human

Oh oo oh oo oh oh
No superwoman
Oh oo oh oo oh oh
I'm only human
[Repeat]

When I show, my true face, give me faith, so I'm not afraid
To take, what you give, when and then, I'm starting to live

I don't have to be right
There's no power in empty passion
Lots it takes for the fight
Find the strength to be out of passion
Everybody knows me
You're the one who won't hear my story
Give it to ya for free
You're the man who won't share my glory

Sing it out
Play it out
For the first time these words are spoken
Meet some thin
So I can love again
Shout it out
Turn around
Tell the whole world the spell is broken
Break these chains
I'm only human

Oh oo oh oo oh oh
No superwoman
Oh oo oh oo oh oh
I'm only human
[Repeat]

And your eyes, when they turn, as they stare, and they burn, but they don't see me
It was geared, and too much, then you started to touch, my amenities.

Sing it out
Play it out
For the first time these words are spoken
Meet some thin
So I can love again
Shout it out
Turn around
Tell the whole world the spell is broken
Break these chains
I'm only human
[Repeat]

Shiver
Oh oh
I'm walking through this blizzzard alone
Without you
I'm so cold
(oh) this summer my heart is frozen

It's 98 degrees outside but I can't feel the sun
The only thing that keeps me warm are these cigarettes and rum
And frozen tears fall from my eyes
like icicles in mid-July
I slowly start to loose my mind
I'm snow blind in summertime

And though this ice has got me slippin', slippin', slippen'
Chills since you been gone has got me trippen trippen

It's gonna be a cold
cold, cold summer, without you (cold cold summer cold cold summer)
It's gonna be a cold
cold, cold summer, without you (cold cold summer)

Weather man says good news go on out and catch a tan
So why am I still shivering
I just don't understand
Rainbow in the sky at noon
I'm dark side of the moon
And in my world the trees are bare
A hint of snow is in the air

And though this ice has got me slippin', slippin', slippen'
Chills since you been gone has got me trippen trippen

It's gonna be a cold
cold, cold summer, without you (cold cold summer cold cold summer)
It's gonna be a cold
cold, cold summer, without you (cold cold summer)
(so cold,so cold)

(Woah, mmmm hmmm)
(cold summer, cold cold summer)

Write your name across my window pain
But the frost covers it up again
When you were by my side we were burning up in winter time
But the flame's gone out now since you've went away

It's gonna be a cold
cold, cold summer, without you (cold cold summer,cold cold summer)
It's gonna be a cold
cold, cold summer, without you (cold cold summer)
Without you (cold cold summer)

Rainbow in the sky at noon
I'm dark side of the moon
And in my world the trees are bare
A hint of snow is in the air

Can't do this without you (cold cold summer)
I'm frozen up (mmmm, hmmm)
(Cold cold summer)
Looking outside there's nothing but stormy weather (cold cold summer)

Life is not an easy road
A true you jus a struggle wid your heavy load
I know
It seems it seems you lose the battle more and more
Life is not an easy road
You have to play your part and take control
Don’t you ever ease up
Never give up
Don’t let go

Hopeless youths dem out inna de street
And dem no have no job so just to win they have to cheat
Tell me why so many see it and don’t speak
And why they’ll never find a peaceful home they cyaan retreat
And dem cyaan find no food to eat
And where you lay your head dem have a bed of concrete
And your momma she ah cry when she ah see it
It’s not a revolution just a cycle that repeats cause

Life is not an easy road
A true you jus a struggle wid your heavy load
I know
It seems it seems you lose the battle more and more
Life is not an easy road
You have to play your part and take control
Don’t you ever ease up
Never give up
Don’t let go

See the sunshine will come one day
And prejudice and inequality will fade away
Man will not judge man but he will say
It’s time to love my neighbour as my brother and not hate
And the world will unite as one
And governments eliminate all chemicals and bombs
We will no longer have to run
The uprising has only just begun, so hear me song

Life is not an easy road
A true you jus a struggle wid your heavy load
I know
It seems it seems you lose the battle more and more
Life is not an easy road
You have to play your part and take control
Don’t you ever ease up
Never give up
Don’t let go

You see dem little youth a cry dem have cold cold feet
Dem prostitute dem life dem ah so dem world get defeat
Dem politicians try fi tek your life you see
But just trust you will survive and keep your dignity
Never mind how dem a treat you never mind wat dem a say
Keep you eyes pon tomorrow but you live for today
You stop you drop you roll to save your soul
You never let dem take it away
Sing

Life is not an easy road
A true you jus a struggle wid your heavy load
I know
It seems it seems you lose the battle more and more
Life is not an easy road
You have to play your part and take control
Don’t you ever ease up
Never give up
Don’t let go

I've been looking at you wondering if you even got
What it takes inna no you take me easy
Left right, left right, left right, focus pon me
Left right, left right, left right, focus pon me

From the most things I got you can't do it like me
There is no other
You a-watch and a-stare and a-wish
That this gal could'a be your baby momma
So watch me slow grind and a-wine
And in time never step outta line, baby
Make you bod all night feel the wickedest wine (focus every time)

So watch me slow wine baby
And I wine and dine baby
Make your mouth water with this heat
Me done work it, what is your weakness

Left right, left right, left right, focus pon me
Show it back, make it hot, take it right down for me
Left right, left right, left right, focus pon me
Move it round, toss it down, give it all you got baby
Left right, left right, left right, focus pon me (what)
Left right, left right, left right, focus pon me (what)

I'm enticed now and me like it
Keep your focus and align it
To the front to the back I give you heart attack
And you know Shontelle got the green alycat
[? ]
Wine it top and wine it round
No fellas step to bring
Hypnotize like it's Bajan n
So beware

[Verse 1]
Carry me home away from all these things
That keep deceiving me
I'm all alone nowhere no one
To show me where to go
Take my money wear my shirt
Using me to do your dirt
Judging me when all the time
You're the one that did the crime
Someone tell me what's the truth
Save the children, save the youth
What about our hopes and dreams
You're not what you really seem oh

[Chorus]
Nation of the plastic people
Here's the church and here's its people
Preaching good and doing evil
Trying to treat you less than equal
Saying this and meaning that
Twisting up into your back
Don't be cast into the sequel
Living in a nation of plastic people (plastic people)

[Verse 2]
You're just like a rose I wanna grow
So I can serve my purpose here
I wanna fly before I die
Be like a bird and touch the sky
Take my home, and take my name
Generation cellophane
There's no difference all the same
I don't know when I'm ashamed
Can you walk inside my shoes?
Don't be mad if I refuse
Artificial attributes,
Different leaders same old news

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
What do you know,
It's a situation begging for salvation
Looking to the sky to answer to all my frustration
There's a choice I'm making
And there's a chance I'll take it
It's the only life I got to live so I can't fake it
Yeeaahhh
Ohhhh

Generation.
Desperaton.
Demonstration.
Provocation.
Population.
Segregation.
Isolation.
Suffocation.
Degradation.
Desolation.
Living in a plastic nation.

[Chorus]

Generation.
Desperaton.
Demonstration.
Provocation.
Population.
Segregation.
Isolation.
Suffocation.
Destination of the nation.
Generation.
Desolation.
Living in a plastic nation.
Living in a plastic nation.

Mmmmmm woooo yea yea

[Verse 1:]
Traveling down this rocky road
So hard to do it all alone
So I really need you
To help me to move along
All my sunshine's gone away
All my blue skies turning gray
It's like the ocean's all dried up and empty (empty)
So I really hope you understand
All the reasons why I can't pretend
That I don't need your love
And I can't ever break the chains

[Chorus:]
I crave you, I breathe you, I taste you
I see you in my dreams
I'll never replace you, escape you, crazy as it seems
You said you'll never go any where
But every time I look around boy you gonna dissapear
Still I cry still I try to save you
Baby boy I crave you (crave you)
Don't you know I love you
Don't you know I love you

[Verse 2:]
So I see the sun rise
The tears falling from my eyes
Longing for you baby
And it makes my world so crazy
Oh now the pain is killing me, baby can't you save me
Won't you come, come to me, to me
Cause you got me trapped inside and now I can't escape
I'm scarred so deeply and now I can't erase the pain

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
Boy text me for a while
Why you coming at me
It brings so much struggle and I strive
Karma brings so much pain ain't I'm in lie
Me sing still
You said you would'a never hurt me, never lie
And I never wanna splurt from in and I'm in lie
Still you only come and ah-use me (and ah-use me)
And it breaks me hard still you abuse me (you abuse me)
You got me hanging like a puppet from a string
You was the only ting I take control and I'm in lie
So why you coming at me ups 'n moving
You gonna turn me like some kinda Ara movie
What kind of thing you bring to all me suffering,
And still me wanna sing
Do anything to obviou
Me sing, me sing -me really, really, really love you

[Chorus]

Ohhhhhh
Don't You know I love you
I'm begging you please don't leave me no no

[Chorus: fades]

Hush little shorty don't you cry
I'll sing you a ghetto lullaby
When things get rough, let me dry your eyes
Give you the strength, hold your head up high
When this cold world never do you right
I'll hold you down through the darkest nights
Rest your head let me ease your mind
I'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

Where shall I begin
To teach you what could take a lifetime to learn
Nuff lies will be told, with each day the truth will unfold
Picture if you can, a mountain so high that you can't see the top
An ocean so wide, you can see where it meets the sky
Well that's how far you're gonna have to go
Hold on tight shorty don't let go
Those rains will fall and those winds will blow
Out in those streets it can be so cold

Hush little shorty don't you cry
I'll sing you a ghetto lullaby
When things get rough, let me dry your eyes
Give you the strength, hold your head up high
When this cold world never do you right
I'll hold you down in the darkest nights
So rest your head let me ease your mind
I'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

I'm looking at you, A picture of innocence framed within trust
Each river you cross, filled with the unknown not so treasureous
All envy and greed, Will rip you apart and leave you to bleed
An incessantly cut you up with no trace of mercy
Nuff backstabbers and informers
Hate and disease so let me warn ya
Sharks in the ocean will raise their teeth
Lets all run fast when you see

Hush little shorty don't you cry
I'll sing you a ghetto lullaby
When things get rough, let me dry your eyes
Give you the strength, hold your head up high
When this cold world never do you right
I'll hold you down in the darkest nights
Rest you head let me ease your mind
I'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

Ooooohhh
Dry your eyes don't you cry
Not tonight
If you just try you will find your sunrise

Hush little shorty don't you cry
I'll sing you a ghetto lullaby
When things get rough, let me dry your eyes
Give you the strength, hold your head up high
When this cold world never do you right
I'll hold you down in the darkest nights
Rest your head let me ease your mind
I'll sing you a ghetto lullaby

Yeah
Listen carefully
Listen to these words

Baby take a minute let me sit you down
Been waiting for the time and the time is now
I think you should decide where you wanna be
Running in the streets or living here with me
Baby take a step back and look around
Gonna run yourself like you do the ground
You're not invincible and the fact is
Nothing's guaranteed but the darn taxes?

Control your pebble before he turn to stone
Boy you better listen for you're all alone
When the money's spent and all your friends are gone
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone (flesh and bone)
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone

You know

Look into my eyes and tell me what you see
Is there any hope that you could ever be
More than just a fish in the sea
Cause baby after all if you get cut you're gonna bleed
Try to understand what I'm telling you
This is not a game don't you play the fool
I'm begging won't you hear my plea
This is not a theory it's reality

Control your pebble before he turn to stone
Boy you better listen for you're all alone
When the money's spent and all your friends are gone
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone (flesh and bone)
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone
(Then you're gonna realize)

Living in this cold world never easy
"Life ain't no sweet bread" that's what my momma told me
I'm getting by and now I see what she mean
You need to settle down and stop living so extreme
I'm your woman and you know I'll always love you
I'll never do a single thing to exploit you
Life is so precious never take it for granted
How can I make you understand this baby

Control your pebble before he turn to stone
Boy you better listen for you're all alone
When the money's spent and all your friends are gone
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone (flesh and bone)
Then you're gonna realize, you're only flesh and bone
(Then you're gonna realize)

(Feat. Akon)

that you're gonna get you somethin better,
but you know that we're in this forever,
and you can - think you can walk out, even with your doubts,
but you know that we're in this together,
you can try to push me from you, nothing you do will keep us a part.

tell myself that i'll be fine without ya, but i would die if i was not around ya,
and i can try to convince you i don't need to be with you,
but my only thoughts are thoughts about ya,
what can i do, love is like glue. there's no way to .. tear us a part.

can't think of nothin better than to be stuck with you.

cause it's too late, there's no escape, might as well face it,
baby, we're stuck with each other (stuck with each other) - ain't nothin we can do about it
cause it's too late, there's no escape, might as well face it,
