MJB Da MVP Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Yea lets take em back
uh-huh
[Game]
I need a real love Mary hollar at me if you need a real thug
we could ride through Compton to see real blood, real crypts,
and imma always hold you down thats real shit
I'm the Los Angeles King and you remind me of Mary the R&B Queen
I got the 411 whats crackin what I owe you for helping me go 4 times platinum
I had a kid to my life he's almost 2 i guess wat im tryin 2 say
is thank you for over ten years in the ghetto gospel
you paved the way for young black women of prosper
how you paint pictures
you deserve grammies and oscars
congratulation from me Aftermath and the "Dr"
so you could go ahead envy me
I'm Billboards top ten featuring 'MJB'

[Mary]
'91 i stepped in this game
After 'whats the 411' things aint been the same
and i cant complain but with all this fame comes a whole lot of pain
but im so glad to be here
and my music's still sincere
lets get back to the story
all of this pain and glory
and '94 was my life and my life wasn't right
so i reached out to you and told u what i been through

[Chorus: Mary & 50 Cent]
Hate it or love it,
(The underdogs on top)
(And I'm gonna shine homie until my heart stops)
go 'head envy me
I'm the soul hip-hop queen
and i aint going nowhere
but you already know me
Hate it or love it,
(The underdogs on top)
(And I'm gonna shine homie until my heart stops)
go 'head envy me
I'm the soul hip-hop queen
and i aint going nowhere
but you already know me

[Mary:]
I came with 'share my world'
but at that point I was just a foolish girl
trying to find my way
Then I dropped the 'Mary' album
and people were saying that its just not gonna work
and my feelings they did hurt
but my fans showed me so much love
and i owe it all to them
and i came with 'No More Drama'
I remember that week
it was when Aaliyah died i couldnt hardly sleep
thought about it everyday and it made me change my way
I'm a real woman now because of all of these days

[Repeat Chorus:]

[Hook:]
You remind me
of a real love
(you dont 'ave to worry)
real love
all night long
im goin down
dododododah dododododah
reminice on the love we have
you are everything love without a limit
what u gonna do without
my life, my life, my life,

[Repeat Chorus:]

[Mary:]
Right now i just want to thank ..
Dr.Dre
[Game]
Hate it or love it Aftermath's On Top!

and The Game for picking such a hot record
I thank y'all,

[Game]
nah baby we thank u!

Can't Get Enough Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Unnhhhhhhhhhh, Yeah

No matter what I do,
I want you to pull me through,
cause I need you.
Every day and every night,
you make wonders in my life,
that's why I call on you.

Ohhhh, this is true.
I can't get enough of you. (I can't get enough of you)
Oohhhh, This is true, (oh this is true)
I can't get enough of you (I can't get enough of you)

Listen,
You bring joy instead of pain,
bring me flowers after rain,
You give me lovely days
I know I can count on you,
to turn my gray skies blue,
that's why I love you.

[Chorus]
Ohhhh, this is true.
I can't get enough of you.
This is true, (love the way you tell me the truth about me)
I can't get enough of you (It's the only thing that could set me free)
This is true (You love me more than I love myself),
I can't get enough of you (No one can give me this confidence)

(Please don't) Please don't leave me
(ever leave my side) I cant do it, I can't do it now
(I cant live without you) I can't live without you
(I've already tried) Trriiiied

I don't think that I can make it,
and I'm not prepared to take it,
if you're not with me.
I can make it through the storm,
I need your love to keep me warm,
it's what makes me strong.

[Chorus]
I love it when you tell me the truth about me
It's the only thing that could set me free
You Love me more than I love myself
No one can give me this confidence

Ain't Really Love Lyrics – Mary J Blige

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) Ooooooo
(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
Ohh...

[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]

Father In You Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Can I talk to you, baby

When I was a little girl
I didn't have a father
And that's why I'm leaning on you..
When I was a baby
I didn't get a hug from daddy
That's why I need a hug from you..

Ohh, It's not easy and
I thank you for putting up with me
When you don't have a daddy's love

To say that you...
To say that I'm your little girl
(Are his little girl, Oh why didn't you love me)
And give you the love..(I need love yeah yeah yeah)
you really deserve (And i believe I deserve it And that's why

[chorus]
That's why I need, The father in you
(I need the father in you, baby)
That's why I need, (Please don't hurt me please)
The father in you
That's why I need (Oh that's why)
The father in you (Really need you)
That's why I need (Please be true)
The father in you

Oh, things got bad, to the point
Where mommy couldn't hold us down
And that's when it hurt me so much
To see her, To see her cry
(Oh don't cry, momma don't cry momma)
Each and every night
(We're gonna be alright that's what I used to say)
I said that some day
That I would try to take his place
But it was too hard;
It was so hard trying to be a man and a woman
And that's why I need the father in you

[chorus]
That's why I need, (oh I needed)
The father in you, (I put my trust on you)
That's why I need, (Please don't let me domn)
The father in you.
That's why I need,
The father in you (I need the father in you)
That's why I need (Hold my hand)
The father in you

[Breakdown]

Because we never had one at home
(No No No) As a little girl...
So I understand, why daddy couldn't be there
Cause it's so obvious nobody taught him, how to be father to me
Oh and I'm not sayin this
to reminisce on the past
I'm just saying this to make you understand, That I needed a father
And this is my problem
This is why I couldn't keep no one
This is why I couldn't stay alone
I was so scared alone
Every woman needs a man
And I don't think she understands
That she really needs a father
The father in you, my brother
She really needed the father
The father in you.
When your wife is speaking fellas
Pay attention,Yeah,don't ignore her
No,no,no I really need the father in you.

One Lyrics – Mary J Blige (feat. U2)

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame

You say one love, one life (one life)
It's one need in the night
One love (one love), get to share it
Leaves you darling, if you don't care for it

Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without

Well it's too late, tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One...

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head

Well, did I ask too much, more than a lot?
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got
We're one, but we're not the same
Well we, hurt each other
Then we do it again

You say
Love is a temple
Love is a higher law
Love is a temple
Love is the higher law
You ask me to enter
Well then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters and my
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One...
One love

Not Today Lyrics – Mary J Blige

This is another one of those heartbreak hotel joints for the ladies

Why won't u grow up & be a man someday
I can't believe that you're still playing silly games
Now why do I put up w/ all this child's play
Now if your word is all you have
Then u ain't worth a damn thing

[Chorus:]
Promises you told me every day
That you made you never ever kept
By me I really want to believe
But not today, not today, not today, not today

You're the worst
I can't even depend on u
U say a lot of good things
But something else u always do
Be a man of your word
Try to love something other than u
But now u can be on your way
Cause I don't want you to stay

[Eve:]
Promises bout our house
Bout the kids
Lifestyle we would live
Who the fuck you really is
In my face
All the time
Spittin' line after line
Broke down my wall and you got in my mind
You's a fake shoulda known
All the signs I was shown
Believed what I saw
And your cover was blown
Breakup, leave
Make up, please
You's a magician all them tricks up your sleeve
Had me for a minute
I was in it
U played good
But I'mma get you
Gotta get it
I'mma make moves
And I'mma leave you where you at dog, chill
Go back to square one
Wait for something real
Selfish nigga
Could have helped you nigga
Usually know betta but I felt you nigga
I guess getting in my head was a part of the plan
Cause in reality the only thing you giving me is

Promises you told me every day
That you made you never ever kept
By me I really want to believe
But not today, not today, not today, not today

Don't let him waste your time girl
He's only telling lies girl
And when he apologizes (and he will)
Don't be believing that man
Cause he gon' do it again

Promises you told me every day
That you made you never ever kept
By me I really want to believe
But not today, not today, not today, not today

When We Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Baby...
Ooh baby...
When we...

I gotta man to love me down all night
I just hate it when we fuss and fight
Sometimes it's hard for us to get along

But I don't mind cryin' meany tears
Over something that I can't control

We gonna make it through the good and bad days
I know you'll always choose what's best for us, cause we make good love...

I will love you faithfully, cause our love was meant to be
Cause we make good love...

Love & Life (Intro) Lyrics – Mary J Blige (feat. Jay-Z, P. Diddy)

[Phone dialling]

[Mary]
What's up, this is Mary, leave a message, and I'll holla back, peace

[Diddy]
Yo, yo Mary, pick up the phone girl
Ay yo Mary, pick up the phone girl

[MJ] Hello?
[PD] Ay yo, what's up?
[MJ] What's up Puff?
[PD] Girl you ready?
[MJ] I'm always ready

[Diddy]
It's about that time again
This the moment they all been waiting for
Time to take it back to the gutter
The queen of hip-hop soul

[Mary (Jay-Z)]
Oohh, live your life cos life is love
Always thank the man above (thank you, uh)
The more you the more you get (that's real talk)
Yeah, yeah (let me warm it up for ya)

[Jay-Z]
Who better than Usher you back through the gutter
Than America's number one hustler (Sean Carter)
Don't call it or come back
Unless there's some money attached to that
And you can call it whatever you like, in fact
It's something like a phenomenon
Like I'm a younger bro
Taking my hostile games gone
TV just for dunkin on
Whoever want it with Sean he can get it jumpin like Donkey Kong
We could get it thumpin like bum-ba-bum
Travel the way of the gun, come on, c-come on
No, I'm not only beggin I'm eggin you on
Until you dead or gone that's the vendetta I'm on
This ain't no video game with wrestlers on it
The competitor on this is on some shit
On this come through all black like a Amish
Holsters under the armpit, the arm spit, ha
Just that Brooklyn don shit
Along with the queen from Yonkers
Come on kiss the ring
Fore I let miss Mary sing
Supposed to you a soul in the everything, yeah
It's classic material
I see you bastards at the burial
Jay go first and then Mary go, round
I just ride, hole her down with the fifth by my side
Me and miss Blige
Look up in the sky it's a bird a that came
In the hydro flow that I bought to the game
I could go mo' but I'm a let ma do her thang
Brooklyn, we did it again

[Diddy]
I can't really explain what it is about her
I don't know it's just, it's something special
Ain't nobody like her, there's only one Mary
Only one queen of hip-hop soul
Love and life, let's do it

Don't Go Lyrics – Mary J Blige

[1st Verse:]
Everyday is not a perfect day for you and I somedays.
Somedays things are just not right.
That doesn't mean that
I don't love you.
And boy you know its true.
I can't not always please you.
When I look intro your eyes.
(When I look into your eyes).
I always see myself.
That means that we are one.
No one else can satisfy this girl the way you do.
I know that love makes all the rules.

[B-Sect:]
Sometimes I say things to hurt you.
And I'll apologize.
Neither one of us are perfect.
So you should realize.

[Chorus:]
Don't go baby.
Baby don't you go.
Don't go baby.
I still love you so.

[2nd Verse:]
Don't act that way if I ask you to stay.
Please don't walk away from me baby.
Give me the same respect that you
want from me.
(Why don't you?).
Cause Lord knows that I deserves it too.

[B-Sect:]
Sometimes I say things to hurt you.
And I'll apologize.
Neither one us of are perfect.
So you should realize.

[Chorus:]
Don't go baby.
Baby don't you go.
Don't go baby.
I still love you so.
Don't go baby.
Baby don't you go.
Don't go baby.
I still love you so.

[Bridge:]
We always gon make mistakes.
Sometimes were not always gonna get along.
(Were not always gonna get along but I...).
So stop wasting all your time thinking that I don't love you.
Cause if love makes all the rules no one is played for...

[Repeat Chorus until song fades]

Finally Made It (Interlude) Lyrics – Mary J Blige

It's not all about the money
(It's not all about the money).
Cause I love what I'm doing for the people.
(I really love doing my job, I really do).
Don't know were I would be if this didn't happened.
(You know...)
But I finally made it...
(A lot of us don't graduate from high school. A lot us don't get a chance at being a superstar. A lot us don't get a chance
to fulfill our dreams and I'm thinking like God! If I wasn't doing this what would I be doing? Probably like braiding hair.
Working at a super market. You know? Just hustling two jobs you know what I mean? At least trying to live.)
La, la, la, la
(I lost so much you know? I lost so, so much over the years cause like it's amazing how when you decide that you wanna do
the right thing. When I say I "Finally Made It" I don't mean like successfully, or wit money, I mean like...
I'm spiritually successful right now. You know like trying...)
Never give up, never give up, never, never give up, never give up...
(I'm on my way to like... A place were I know... I never dreamed were I would be and that’s perfection... I'm striving for
that... I don't think no one can ever be perfect, I'm striving again, striving against all things... So what I'm saying to
all my fans is... If I can do it... I know ya'll can do it too...)

Ooh! Lyrics – Mary J Blige

[1st Verse:]
In the middle of the night.
When you hold me tight.
Say it's all right.
I'm yours forever.
I do what you want.
If you don't hurt me.
I'll cook and clean.
I'll make you happy.

[Chorus:]
And ooh!
What you do to me.
Ooh! You're my everything.
And ooh! I'm so glad I found you.
Ooh! I can't live wit out you.

[2nd Verse:]
Got a Jones in my bones.
And it's all for you baby.
Can't leave you alone.
I'm so addictive.
I can't shake this thang.
It's the sweetest pain.
So who's your girl?
You better say my name.

[Chorus:]
And ooh! What you do to me.
Ooh! You're my everything.
And ooh! I'm so glad I found you.
Ooh! I can't live wit out you.

[Bridge:]
What you do to me, it's just a mystery.
It's hard to believe that you our here with me.
Making all my dreams a sweet reality.
All my life I tried to find what is best for me.

Let Me Be The 1 Lyrics – Mary J Blige

[50 Cent singing]

MJ, 50 Cent. G UUUNIT!
This is simple. I know you understand.
Another man can't quite love you girl.
Like I can. Your fantasies and your dreams.
Believe in me. I will fufill. Now you know how I feel.
Now baby tell me how do you feel?

[Mary J. Blige]

[Verse 1]

Boy I feel like this just can't be real.
And if I'm dreaming please don't wake me up.
So what's the deal? Should I save my love for you?
Cause no way makes me feel the way that you do.

You make me wanna see your face everyday. (Mmm... Hmmm...)
Deep down inside I know that your my soul mate. (You are my soul mate).
If you should be my man. Patiently. (Patiently). Cause boy I know that your the one for me.

[Hook]

Let me be the one to give you everything. (Boy I wanna be the one).
Let me be the one that's always in your dreams. (Always be in your dreams).
Let me be the one who'd be right by your side. (I'll be there, I'll be there).
Let me be the one, (Let me be the one), let me be the one.
Let me be the one...

[Mary J. Blige]

[Verse 2]

I'm your girl. See there's no one quite like me. No one will love you that I do.
I get chiils. When you put your arm around me. You make me feel like I'm the only one.

You make me wanna see your face everyday.
Deep down inside I know that your my soul mate. (You are my soul mate).
If you should be my man. Patiently. (I'll be right here waiting).
Cause boy I know that your the one for me. (Your the one... your the one).

[Repeat Hook 2x]

[Mary J. Blige]

[Bridge]

Why won't you let me be? (Why won't you let me be?).
The one to set you free. (I wanna set you free).
I'll give you what you need. (I'll give you what you need).
If you would just let me be the onnnnnneee!

[Repeat Hook]

[50 Cent Verse]

Baby if ever you need someone who knows you.
Someone to go to. Someone to be by your side.
Baby if ever you need someone to talk too.
Someone to hold you. Someone to be down to ride.
You can count on me. I'll be there for ya. When you need me I care for you.
Like you care for me. Please believe me! If I was locked up I know you'd be the one to come see me.
Cause you understand life were we from ain't easy. Problems. They say when it rains it pours.
But I'm sure.
Together we can weather the storm. Your friends they don't understand the shit we on.
When I'm gone I'm missing you. Your love is unconditional. Your my heart.
I NEED YOU TO LIVE!!!
Picture me dissin you.
Now pictrue something positive.
Me hugging and kissing you.
If ever you doubt how I feel this is what you should listen too.

[Repeat Hook 2x]

[Ad-Libs]

Let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you...
Let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one for you...

Love At First Sight Lyrics – Mary J Blige (feat. Method Man)

[Mary J. Blige]
Lookin' at you from a distance
Gettin' all of my attention
Could this be love at first sight, baby
You walked away and I missed you
Visions of wanting to kiss you
How could this be if I don't really know you?
Ohh baby, baby

[Chorus - Mary J. Blige:]
Could it be love at first sight?
And I never knew that I, could fall in love on the very first night
Could this be love?

[Mary J. Blige]
You had on the latest fashion
It was a bigger attraction
It drew me closer and closer to you, yeah, baby
I never done anything like this
But you I just could not resist
I swallowed my pride and stepped to your side
Or could it be - be

[Chorus]

[Hook: Mary J. Blige]
I wanna know if you could call me up (could you call me up sometime? please)
And maybe someday we just might hook up, could this love at first sight?

[Method Man]
Once again, it's that other M&M now
How many women feelin' him?
Somebody call the coroner, quick, Mary is killin 'em
Tell 'em what's the 411 and who came runnin'
When Clef dialed 911 from shots comin'
This somethin' for the radio, guest starring M.C.
Johnny Blazin' the hip hop and R&B
What, ya'll thought ya wasn't gon' see me
You can't spell Mary J. Blige without a J.B.
Well back to the matter, and it's sex on the platter
She only wanna be happy and I ain't mad at her
You go momma, nowadays, I'm more calmer
And if you take a look at my life, no more drama
Now you know, you searchin' for a Wu-Tang pro
You find me, just bout everywhere the poontang go
Now you know, feel me like your favorite love song
Cuz my computer love is the thetruth.com

[Chorus 2X]

Willing & Waiting Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Willing & waiting
But it's all up to you, ohhh

The very first time I laid my eyes on you
I knew you were the one
Nothing can compare to all the times
We both had some fun
Sometimes I wanna cry
Cause boy I realize
I need you in my life
Don't think he understands
I want him for my man
Waiting for you

I-I-I'm willing & waiting
So in love with you (so in love with you)
Willing & waiting
Boy it's on you (it's on you)
Willing & waiting
Boy I need the truth (boy I need the truth)
Willing & waiting
So in love with you

Every time boy I take one look at you
I see the sun just shine
When we're alone never want the night to end
Cause you're the one I want
Sometimes I wanna cry
Cause boy I realize
I need you in my life
Don't think he understands
I want him for my man
Waiting for you

Willing & waiting
So in love with you (so in love with you)
Willing & waiting
Boy it's on you (on you)
Willing & waiting
Boy I need the truth (boy I need the truth)
Willing & waiting
So in love with you

You better answer (oh yes you better answer)
You better answer

Sometimes I wanna cry
Cause boy I realize
I need you in my life
Don't think he understands
I want him for my man
Waiting for you

[Chorus 3X till fade]

Press On Lyrics – Mary J Blige

[1st Verse:]
Life has a way of making you live it.
Sometimes it takes you to giving it.
Do you fold or do you play on?
The next move always depends on you.
If your work is good then it's trouble at home.
If your moves is right.
Then your dough is tight.
It's like running a engine on no fuel.
How do you play in a game with no rules?

[B-Sect:]
(It's always a fight).
A constant battle in my mind. (No place to run, no were to hide).
I gotta keep moving on, I gotta at least try...
(Dealing with the pressures of everyday life).
Gotta go the extra mile just can't throw in the towel.
You would be so amazed by the things that I can tell...

[Hook:]
I got troubles with in, troubles with out.
Making it threw but tryin' to figure it out.
Tryin' to stay right when the world is so wrong.
But I gotta keep moving and press on.
Gotta stay real, tryin' to be strong.
Making it close but gotta hold on.
Tryin' to stay right but the world is so wrong.
But I gotta keep moving and press on, press on.

[2nd Verse:]
It's such a shame the more that you give the more that you have to wait.
For some one to appreciate all the moves you make.
All the chances you gotta take.
The way to get ahead is to have the fear in your eyes.
The only way to get by is for you never let'em see you sweat.
You sure better not let'em see you cry...

[B-Sect:]
(It's always a fight).
A constant battle in my mind.
(No place to run, no were to hide).
I gotta keep moving on, I gotta at least try...
(Dealing with the pressures of everyday life).
Gotta go the extra mile just can't throw in the towel.
You would be so amazed by the things that I can tell...

[Hook:]
I got troubles with in, troubles with out.
Making it threw but tryin' to figure it out.
Tryin' to stay right when the world is so wrong.
But I gotta keep moving and press on.
Gotta stay real, tryin' to be strong.
Making it close but gotta hold on.
Tryin' to stay right but the world is so wrong.
But I gotta keep moving and press on, press on.

[Bridge:]
Everyday it's something new to face.
Every night praying that I'll survive.
Oh oh ooh.
Tryin' to deal with the pressure.
Every time I try to get ahead.
Every mistake I make they try to do me in.
Whoa oh ohh!
How much more?
Ooh, ooh,
ooh.

[Repeat B-Sect 1x]
[Repeat Hook 1x]

Feel Like Makin' Love Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Take my hand
Lead me to another place

I wanna be released
Set me free

But I'm just talking bout pulling me close

Turn off the lights cause boy we've just begun

Could have stayed all to myself
And played the game like everybody else
But boy I want you and that's no lie
Because you keep me so satisfied

Feel like making love

It's A Wrap Lyrics – Mary J Blige

You came home late last night you smelled just like the scent of her
Not only that but you had lipstick all over your shirt
I'm thinking to myself this man has no respect for me
I knew it all along cause you were talking in your sleep

It's a wrap
Why you go and do me like that
I thought the love was good
But I misunderstood baby
It's a wrap
And I am not surprised
How you could sit right here
And look me in my eyes and tell a lie

Heard you calling her name
In your sleep at night
What are we gonna do
Cause I'm through with you
I heard you calling her name
In your sleep at night
What are we gonna do
Cause I'm through with you
I heard you

What you were saying in your sleep it violated me
No doubt about it but there's nothing left for you and me
Because you're busted and I might as well go on
Boy it's gonna take a long time to make this a happy home

You know it's a wrap
Why you go and do me like that
I thought the love was good
But I misunderstood baby
It's a wrap
And I am not surprised
How you could sit right here
And look me in my eyes
And tell a lie

I heard you
Heard you calling her name
In your sleep at night
What are we gonna do
Cause I'm through with you
I heard you calling her name
In your sleep at night
What are we gonna do
Cause I'm through with you

All you had to say was I don't wanna be with you
Why don't you tell the truth cause I already got the proof
It will never be the same you know it's a crying shame
Cause now I am disgusted cause you are so cold busted
I heard you calling her name
In your sleep at night
What are we gonna do
Cause I'm through with you
I heard you calling her name
In your sleep at night
What are we gonna do
Cause I'm through with you
Heard you calling her name
In your sleep at night
What are we gonna do
Cause I'm through with you
I heard you

Why you go and do me like that
I thought the love was good
But I misunderstood baby
It's a wrap
And I am not surprised
How you could sit right here
And look me in my eyes and tell a lie

ooh... ohoho...ohoho

[Chorus]
Its about the things you say to me in the a.m.
Its about the way you hold me in the a.m.
Something bout a sweet ron de vu in the a.m.
God, I like spendin time with you in the a.m.

[Verse 1]
Its about six and the sun is on its way up
I'm half asleep,

i like the way you call me,
the way you whisper peace,
the things you reveal
God, i know you're real,
nothing like the way you make me feel

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
I have to admit, this is the way to start the day

Nothing like the way you make me feel

[Chorus]

For me to start the day
Captured in love,
Jesus, your love takes me away

"No More Drama" (2002)

Love lyrics - mary j blige

Well it was like a party
But the kids seem to scatter off
(Kids seem to scatter off)
You told me all those lies
That I said you did
And I can't give one more chance
But I betcha I will show you
That the pick of a letter comes a little thicker
And I said it would
And it's been coming for a long time

L!
Let's get you ready for another, another lifetime
O!
Our position is just to see what you can do
V!
Become a victim on the verge, I'll kick your ass now
E!
This is serious so you'll know what to do

You been wasting time
Are you out of your mind
Well you show me some love

With intentions high
You probably need a place to count your cash
(Need a place to count your cash)
You said you're sorry so many times
And I'm sorry that you ever did
Well you can take your life of love
And stick it up in your main frame
Cause there'll be no more second chances
No more hot romances
And I like it this way
So let me break it down for you

[Chorus]

Better stop playin me
Start lovin me
I ain't the same woman giving love for free
All my life sittin, thinkin how to please you
Been flyin so long now, my screws are loose
Now it's time to move
Cause I'm sick and tired of playin the fool
Cause you play to lose
And I play to win
Tried not tosin
Treid to be your friend
Like every other girl
Never sexed your friends
But it's over now
And you saying, "How?"
I found something new
That worth the while
Instead of meesin with a bump cat poster child
But I'm focused now
People saying, "Wow!"
In place of a frown on my face, a smile
You must be out yo mind
I have no time to get you ready for a love of a liftime

[Chorus]

You been wasting time
Are you out of your mind
Well you show me some love

[Chorus]

Steal Away lyrics - mary j blige

Is just that ghetto ghetto
Ghetto ghetto
Is just that ghetto ghetto
Ghetto ghetto
We still ghetto ghetto
Ghetto ghetto

I've been thinkin lately baby
Maybe we should layin tonight
I've been pushing paper crazy
Even if it's wrong I feel this right
Maybe we can make sweet love
Cause I know it feels so good
In order to escape this pressure
You know what? We should

Steal away, steal away
Leave for a day, we'll never say
We should've left much more soon
For one night let's share the moon
Can we make love all that day
Steal away

You know I really need you sugar
I want you to make me away
I can't wait till we leave out
So we can be together there's no doubts
That my love it has no limit
So I will wipe away your frown
How come your sexy secrets
Now I'll join you, for the rest of my life

Steal away, steal away
Leave for a day, we'll never say
We should've left much more soon
For one night let's share the moon
Can we make love all that day
Steal away

For sure mamma steal away
Car keys to my mens Benz and peel away
Spillin say, whatever you man like it or not
He aint diggin it right
So I'mma be pipe in line
Icey on hot mami hold on if you aint
We put a flick on your hand
I'll front your navel
What it costs, I'm able to make you happy
Whatever's the back fo' dot six in the navy
Blankets and pillows fluffed up
And we shine like we puffed up
Blowin that dro till we fucked up
Is longs up, I just stole his honey
All his honey he wild like I stole his money
His gold is honey, my gold is money
He can have my wife, while me and you live that lavish life
With your V-Secrets satin tight, thongs and bras
I'm hoping to God this ain't no mirage.

Steal away, steal away
Leave for a day, we'll never say
We should've left much more soon
For one night let's share the moon
Can we make love all that day
Steal away

Steal away, steal away
Leave for a day, we'll never say
We should've left much more soon
For one night let's share the moon
Can we make love all that day
Steal away

Is just that ghetto ghetto
Ghetto ghetto

PMS lyrics - mary j blige

I wanna talk to the ladies tonight
About situation I'm pretty sure y'all be able to relate to
Trust me

Today I'm not feelin pretty
See I'm feeling quite ugly
Havin one of this days
When I cant make up my mind
So don't even look at me
See I don't wanna hear your problem
Cause I'm having some of my own
I know it was not your fault
That I'm feelin down
I just wanna be left alone

Down I'm down and out in depression
I think the worst of everything
My lower back is achin'
And my clothes don't fit
Now aint that a bitch

Got an attitude and I aint talkin to you
Only if the shoe'd fit
I don't care what you think about me
I don't need you cryin' around me
Don't need your sympathy
I don't need it, no no
PMS

Go through something in nights
Is the some at day

Where I'm coming from tonight
See I'm feelin messin
Told you, you would be able to late tonight
My lower back is achin'

And I don't know what I'm gonna do
I'm fulled stressed
I want y'all to hear what I'm sayin

Understand where I'm comin from
Feelin really bitch yeah
And I don't feel like be a nice to nobody
Don't feel like smilin no

Sing along, PMS
This is the worst part of everything
The worst part of being a woman is PMS
Give me a break, give me a break
Cause I don't wanna have to set it on tonight

No More Drama lyrics - mary j blige

So tired, tired of this drama
No more, no more
I wanna be free
I'm so tired, so tired

Broken heart again
Another lesson learn
Better know your friends
Or else you will get burned
Gotta count on me
Cause I can guarantee
That I'll be fine

No more pain (no more pain)
No more pain (no more pain)
No drama (no more drama in my life)
No one's gonna make me hurt again

Why'd I play the fool
Go through ups and downs
Knowing all the time
You wouldn't be around
Or maybe I like the stress
Cause I was young and restless
But that was long ago
I don't wanna cry no more

No more pain (no more pain)
No more game (no more game messin with my mind)
No drama (no more drama in my life)
Nooone's gonna make me hurt again
No more tears (no more tears, I'm tired of cryin everynight)
No more fears (no more fears, I really don't wanna cry)
No drama (no more drama in my life)
I don't ever wanna hurt again
Wanna speak my mind, wanna speak my mind

Uh, it feel so good
When you let go
Of all the drama in your life
Now you're free from all the pain
Free from all the game
Free from all the stress
So find your happiness
I don't know
Only God knows where the story ends for me
But I know where the story begins
It's up to us to choose
Whether we win or loose
And I choose to win

No more pain (no more pain)
No more game (tired of your playin' game with my mind)
No drama (no more drama in my life)
No more, no more, No more, no more
No more tears (no more tears, no more cryin every night)
No more fears (no more waking be up in the morning)
No drama, no more in my life

No more drama, no more drama
No more drama, no more drama
NO MORE DRAMA
NO MORE DRAMA
NO MORE DRAMA
NO MORE DRAMA
NO MORE DRAMA
No more drama in my life
So tired, tired of this drama

And we began to love it (began to love it)
Watchin all of the heartache and pain of the world
And thinkin nothin of it (thinkin nothin of it)

Where I've Been Lyrics – Mary J Blige (feat. Eve)

[Spoken]
(To all the youth in the world that thinks nobody understands...
Well I understand that)

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

I grew up as a 70's baby
Brought up in poverty and sin
Makin' jokes at the crazy lady
Never cared how she was dealin' within
I knew all the words to
Micheal Jackson's album as a kid
And when it came to the biggest crusher
No he wasn't my man
At the age of seven years old
A strange thing happened to me
Before I even saw
My life had flashed before me
And I've got the mark to show
And it became a thang of beauty
So I gotta let you know
That my life, that my life

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

Now mama's workin' hard all day
And she said this before she left home
Take care of your little brother
Have the place cleaned when I get home
All these priorities
Me and Tanya had to learn to be grown
But at the time for me
Being grown had seemed so lone
Woke up and I'm seventeen
With nothing going for me
Except the fact that I sing
You know it hurts so much
From all the sights that I've seen
From abusin' the hole in trust
You probably couldn't take some of things
That I've lived in my life

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

It's hard and the street's a jungle (I'm telling you, I'm telling you)
Especially with your pretty colors (I'm telling you, I'm telling you)
So stay low and keep it humble (I'm telling you, I'm telling you)
Black women hold it down, keep your feet on the ground
Black men keep searching and you'll be found

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

[Rap by Eve]
In this world of continuous bullshit and full clips
Seems all we have to pass down is being useless
Broken homes, babies all alone, parent's never there
No food, no clothes to wear, anger everywhere
Ain't no values being taught, no productive thoughts
Jealousy rules the world, take shit at any cost
Gotta change our state of life, keep it worth livin'
God gave us voices to speak and that's our way of givin'
It's so much bigger than the furs and the jewels
What about encouragin' the youth to do well
What about givin' back- what about unifying
Shit we all black- get it together
Everybody's got their trials and tribulations
Learn to change the negative to positive situations
Don't hold the lessons that you learn
Pass it on and except the blessings that could earn

It's been hard for me
Trying strugglin' in the streets
But where I've been- Is no longer where I'm at
And where I'm going- Is not where I'm stoppin' at

Beautiful Day Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Tired of living like my days are bad
When I open up my eyes, I'm glad
And I can't complain 'bout yesterday
Cuz today's a brand new day

Comb my hair and though some like it wrong
Jump in my ride because it's on
And I'm gone, I'm gone

[1] - I woke up this morning
Opened up my eyes and prayed, Lord
Cuz it's a beautiful day
No matter what nobody say

Even though it's cloudy
I can see the sun rays
Oh, cuz it's a beautiful day
No matter what nobody say
Cuz it's a beautiful day, a beautiful day

Life just can't get no better than this
Mother Nature's given us a kiss
Cuz tomorrow I'm glad I didn't miss
Let's take advantage of days like this
When the night time does finally hit
There'll be no reason for guns
It'll be fun, fun, fun, fun

[Repeat 1]

Everything is good because I'm living and I'm healthy
I'm not too concerned 'bout being poor or being wealthy
I feel really good about this blessing given to me
Nothing in this world could ever take all my joy from me

It's beautiful, it's beautiful
It's beautiful, it's beautiful
It's beautiful

A beautiful day, a beautiful day
A beautiful day, a beautiful day

[Repeat 1]

I don't have a complain in the world
I am doing so good
Without, without, without the money
Without, without, without the stress
Without, without, without the people, oh yeah

[Repeat 1 until fade]

Dance For Me Lyrics – Mary J Blige

[Ahkim]
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

[1 - MJB]
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

[Repeat 1]

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

[Repeat 1]

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

[Repeat 1]

[Ahkim]
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

[Repeat 1]
[Repeat 1]

Flying Away Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Me, you will go flying away
I'm gon' take you lil' higher
We'll go flying away
Where the sun is wet and the rainbow's fly
Flying away
Unto another star
Where I'm mines and our hearts will find a way

Baby, here's your only chance
Call me your sunshine
On a rainy day- love is on the way
Don't you worry bout nothing at all
If you really need a friend, it's me you could call
I won't bring you down
We'll fly high above the ground
And me and you

Me, you will go flying away
I'm gon' take you lil' higher
We'll go flying away
Where the sun is wet and the rainbow's fly
Flying away
Unto another star
Where I'm mines and our hearts will find a way

Ooh everything you're dreaming of
You can always find it
Inside me there's love
I won't push and shove
I'll be so gentle with your feelings you'll see
That you really need a woman and the woman is me
I won't play no games
I will always stay the same
Let's go higher baby

Me, you will go flying away
I'm gon' take you lil' higher
We'll go flying away
Where the sun is wet and the rainbow's fly
Flying away
Unto another star
Where I'm mines and our hearts will find a way

I know
That you feel so good
Up above
You see
You and me
So we'd go
We'll climb and we'll climb
And we're gunna get so high
Till we reach the stars
Finally get to Mars
We'll go higher babe

[Musiclude with Ad-libs]

Me, you will go flying away
I'm gon' take you lil' higher
We'll go flying away
Where the sun is wet and the rainbow's fly
Flying away
Unto another star
Where I'm mines and our hearts will find a way

Me, you will go flying away
I'm gon' take you lil' higher
We'll go flying away
Where the sun is wet and the rainbow's fly
Flying away
Unto another star
Where I'm mines and our hearts will find a way

Me, you will go flying away
I'm gon' take you lil' higher
We'll go flying away
Where the sun is wet and the rainbow's fly
Flying away
Unto another star
Where I'm mines and our hearts will find a way

Me, you will go flying away
I'm gon' take you lil' higher
We'll go flying away
Where the sun is wet and the rainbow's fly
Flying away
Unto another star
Where I'm mines and our hearts will find a way

Never Been Lyrics – Mary J Blige

I've never been touched like this- I've never been
I've never been kissed like this- I've never been
I never knew it felt like this- I never knew
I never knew a love like this

Pardon me- excuse me- forgive me- I can't help it
But I see- the energy- 'tween you and me- and I'm selfish
Don't want no- other girls- calling you- never ever
Cause I want- us to stay- together- forever

I've never been touched like this- I've never been
I've never been kissed like this- I've never been
I never knew it felt like this- I never knew
I never knew a love like this

Believe me- when I say- there is no one- I mean none
That can do- the things you do- the things you did- and get done
And I believe- that I can feel- this way- for a reason
In all the ways- you make me feel- boy you keep- me breathing

I've never been touched like this- I've never been
I've never been kissed like this- I've never been
I never knew it felt like this- I never knew
I never knew a love like this

What you got- Them others don't- Cause you're the one I want
You make me hot- Them others don't- Cause baby you're the one I love
What you got- Them others don't- Cause you're the one I want
You make me hot- Them others don't- Cause baby you're the one I love

I've never been touched like this- I've never been
I've never been kissed like this- I've never been
I never knew it felt like this- I never knew
I never knew a love like this

I've never been touched like this- I've never been
I've never been kissed like this- I've never been
I never knew it felt like this- I never knew
I never knew a love like this

2 U Lyrics – Mary J Blige

2 U

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

In The Meantime Lyrics – Mary J Blige

In the meantime, what do you do
When there's no one left but you
And you're alone
How do you feel when the one you love
Doesn't, doesn't seem real
Do you run, or do you try to heal
The hurt inside
But oh, but in the meantime

[1] - I have found within myself
Everything I need to get by
Cuz I
Know what to do in the meantime
Continue to love you

There is no need for you to fear
For I am here, I'll be right here
All of your life
And I am willing and able to pull you
Pull you through, through the storm
That might await you on the outside
And all of your fears and your doubts will no longer exist
Because God has granted you the greatest wage
And He's done the same for me
Cuz right now, you're all I need

[Repeat 1]

In the meantime what do you do
When there is no one, love but you
And you're alone, oh (But in the meantime)
In the meantime, oh (But in the meantime)
What do you do in the meantime (But in the meantime)
There is no need for you to have no fear (But in the meantime)
For I am here (But in the meantime)
But in the meantime (But in the meantime)
But in the meantime (But in the meantime)
Oh I'm willing and I'm able (But in the meantime)
To pull you through the storm
Pull you through the storm (But in the meantime)
In the mean (But in the meantime)
Yeah

Testimony Lyrics – Mary J Blige

I've had some good days
And I've had some bad days
I know about heartbreak
Didn't think that I can make it
I know how it feels to have money
I know how it feels to be broke
And I can tell ya 'bout lonely
Cause I've been there before

Lord, when I raise my head up to the sky
All of the emptiness was gone
If you believe, you'll see in time
That everything will be all right

[Chorus:]
It's gonna be all right
Everything will be ok
This is her testimony -- Mary's story
Trouble don't last always

Through my trials and tribulations
I still believe
That god had a greater plan for me
Exceeded all my expectations
But when he gave me what I need
And now I'm set free

Lord, when I raise my head up to the sky
All of the emptiness was gone
If you believe, you'll see in time
That everything will be all right

[Chorus]

This is my story
This is my song
(This is my song)
This is the day I celebrate
My trouble's are gone

[Chorus]

It's all right
It's ok
He wiped all my tears away
(He wiped them away)
It's all right
It's ok
Trouble don't last always
(Trouble don't last)

It's all right
It's ok
(Said it don't last)
He wiped all my tears away
(He wiped all my)
It's all right
It's ok
Trouble don't last always

(Away), Away
(Away), Away he wiped
(Away)
He cared for me
(Away)
When nobody else did
(Away)
He wiped my tears away
(Away)
(Away), Away
(Away), Away
Away

"Mary" (1999)

All That I Can Say Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Loving you is wonderful
Something like a miracle
Rest assured I feel the same way you do
Needing you it isn't hard
With you I can let down my guard
Stay secure that's all I'm asking of you
I wish I had words to tell
This feeling that I know so well
But I don't, I don't

[Chorus:]
All that I can say
Do do, do do, do do, do
All that I can say
Do do, do do, do do, do

I've always been curious
Needing someone serious
Looking for someone who loves like me
But the day I stopped my search
It seemed that you were put on Earth
To show me everything I could not see
I wish I could find a way
To tell you how I felt that day
But I can't (I just can't)
I can't

[Chorus]

Knowing him, touching him
Showing him that I'm all in
Living and forgiving him
I would do it all again
Genuine seraphim
Sweeter than cinnamon
Heaven-sent gentleman
Synonyms for loving him

[Chorus]

[Ad-libs:]
I love you, I love you
Oh I don't wanna live without you
You're all that I can say
Loving you is wonderful
(Do do, do do, do do, do)
All that I can say
(Do do, do do, do do, do)
All that I can say
(Do do, do do, do do)

Sexy Lyrics – Mary J Blige (feat. Jadakiss)

[1] - Can't have you if I wanted to
Can't let you get away from me
Can have you if I wanted to
Can't let you go, no

[Repeat 1]

Looking in my mirror
Thinking 'bout last night
I can't help but see you
Running often through my mind

[Repeat 1]

You were saying, Mary
Don't let go, hold tight
I just wanna hold you
All through the night

[2] - This is something that I can't deny
Boy you know your touch just drives me wild
Won't you take my hand, I'll set you free
I want you to belong to me

[Repeat 1]

Oh, oh oh oh, oh, oh, oh

[Jadakiss]
Uh, uh-huh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh-huh, uh
Yo, yo, yo
You might bump into the 'Kiss late night
On the Deegan, speeding
In the drop four-thirty, on my way to rock a birdie
With automatic lead in the car, bread in the car
Plus I'm gettin' head in the car
My wedding tomorrow
More dutchies to the head, the redder you are
After the session with shorty
I'll be better tomorrow
And you know how we are
We always keep more than two
That don't say much
Like to hit a blunt or two
Or don't mind driving with raw in the trunk
Or freaking off for the week
Top flow in the trunk
Just laying back blowing
Twenty five's a skull
The Akitas by the door with bow ties and puffs
Can't let me get away
But you ain't ready for 'Kiss
Got the Chevy and the Six
Wrists heavy and shit
Matter of fact we gonna take a trip
And put the daps up
And cop the pink lemonade Cadillac truck

[Repeat 1 (2x)]

[Repeat 2]

Can't have you if I wanted to
Can't have you
Can't let you go, no
Can't have you if I wanted to
Can't have you
Can't let you go, no

[Repeat 1 till end]

Deep Inside Lyrics – Mary J Blige

The problem is
For many years
I've lived my life
Publicly
So it's hard for me to find a man I trust
I really trust
And everytime I find someone I like
Gotta worry about
If it's really me
That they see
And I thought you were the one, yeah

[CHORUS]
Deep inside I wish that they could see
That I'm just plain ol' Mary, Mary
[repeat]

I don't have a lot of friends
And sometimes I have to wonder
Is it cash they see when they look at me
'Cause they're lookin' for a ride that's free
So I made the choice to be
Good to those who are good to me
Don't judge me, don't think I'm bitter
For the evil does allow me to see I'm just Mary

[HOOK]
I'm just Mary, just Mary, just Mary
I'm just Mary, just Mary, just Mary
I, I, ohhhh

[CHORUS]

The problem is
For many years
I've lived my life
Publicly
And everytime I find a man
I, I can't trust him
Ohhhh

Beautiful Ones Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Oh no, so beautiful
So beautiful

A lucky charm, potato pie
So sweet you make me cry

The way you make me feel inside, oh

[1] - You are the beautiful one
And I love to hold you until the sun
Goes down on your song

Have mercy on me
I'm crazy 'bout you
Look at all the things your lips make me do
You are my song when there's no music to play
Oh I wanna marry someone like you someday

[Repeat 1]

[2] - Oh beautiful one, don't you ever go
Don't you ever go, don't you ever go
Don't you ever go

Can't you hear the bells ringing
Doves flying in the air
With this ring I promise to always be right there
Through the good and the bad times forever yours
I will remain, with your love baby in my life
You know we can stop the rain, yeah

[Repeat 1]

Time Lyrics – Mary J Blige

[1] - If I have my way
Life would be just fine
But the world is too much
And it makes me cry
Sometimes I feel like leaving
But I must be wise
Because time is not on our side (on our side)
(Don't you that time is not on our side)
Because time is not on our side (on our side)

The end is coming, stop your running
I'm telling you this is the truth
You can talk about what you read about
Everything is on the news
People nowadays so shady
Now what is wrong with them
Something cast a spell up on their minds
And they always wanna condemn

[Repeat 1]

While your judging me you should look around
And you'll see how people going down
Some of them are killed over a dime
Now tell me do we really have time
To continue with this madness
Cause I'm sick and tired of this
Trying to crush my world with jealousy
And I'm about to catch a fit

[Repeat 1]

You're deceiving
What's the meaning
Of you're retrieving
The enemy's greeting
We all are leaving someday but
We don't know how we are going
Please believe me when I tell you
That time is not really on our side

[Repeat 1 till end]

Memories Lyrics – Mary J Blige

Sitting here all alone on Valentine's Day
I really wanna call him up
But my pride is all in the way, hey
Picture's getting clearer
I see what's been going wrong for years
The ones you say are far, really are so near
I'm thinking of

[1] - Roses that you sent to me
All the kisses that you gave to me
Memories of what we used to be
All alone this special day
Thinking 'bout the time you went away
Valentine's Day will never be the same

How come men nowadays bring you so much joy
And so much pain
Can anybody help me?
I think I'm going insane
Valentine's Day will never be the same
Cause I think about you always
I cherish everything you gave to me
I'm thinking of

[Repeat 1]

You took my love for granted
Then you mean to think that
Everything was fine between me and you
Everytime this day comes around
I wanna feel your touch
I can't believe what you did to me
I hate cha, did me wrong
But still I must move on

I gotta move on, ooh oh

[Repeat 1 until fade]

Don't Waste Your Time Lyrics – Mary J Blige (feat. Aretha Franklin)

[Mary]
Lately I've got this funny feeling
Something don't feel the same
But he's telling me I'm the one to blame
Yes I know that he still gives me good loving
But when he's deep inside
There's somebody else on his mind

[1] - [Aretha] Don't waste your time
[Mary] But it gets so hard to know
[Aretha] Just walk away
[Mary] You say that I gotta let go
[Both] Seen it a millions times before
[Aretha] You shouldn't take his stuff no more
[Mary] Can't waste my time
[Aretha] Girl, it's not hard to know
[Mary] Should walk away
[Aretha] Oh, you've gotta let him go
[Both] Seen it a millions times before
[Mary] Shouldn't take his ish no more

[Aretha]
Sister girl, sister girl
It's much deeper than what you're thinking
When something don't feel the same
Hey you better believe his love has change
(And I have been telling you, telling you)
And what you're telling me
(Cuz it's been hurting me, hurting me)
It ain't, ain't any fool can see
He's got a sweetie on the side
Stop making truth out of his lies

[Repeat 1]

[Aretha & Mary]
What's the point of love
When you got no trust
What's the point of staying
When you seen enough
What's the point of giving
What he don't deserve

[Mary]
He don't deserve it
No you don't deserve it

[Aretha]
Oh what's the point of feeling

[Aretha & Mary]
Like there's nothing inside
What's the point of saying
That you still got your pride
What's the point of giving
What he don't deserve
This is a lesson of love

[Repeat 1 with ad libs until fade]

Cause I've been hearin' that around my hood
And I'm trying to tell you something

[2 - Mary]
I'm not looking for no player shit
Not when everybody's trying to get with this
You see, I don't need you here just to get a hit
I'm not looking for no player shit

[Repeat 2]

[Mary]
Where were you when everything was going down
I left my man and didn't have no one around
See I don't need it, I don't want it
You're not the nigga for it
You think that you can get it
No, right now I'm not gonna let it

[K-Ci (Mary)]
Oh please stop frontin' on that player shit (Oh)
I heard around the town you were still down with it
(Oh nigga, please)
If you think I don't know, sugar let me tell you so
(Oh really, oh)
Let me in, let's begin, but we only will be friends
(Stop playing with me)

[Mary]
I'm not looking for no player shit (Yeah, yeah)
Oh not when everybody's trying to get with me
(I'm not even baby)
All day and all night you fool, I don't need it
Don't need it, oh
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I swear I'm tired of playing games
(My my my my mind is all confused)
I don't wanna be down, go 'head, go 'head (Go 'head, oh)
I don't wanna be down, I'm tired of playing games
Tired of chasing your egomaniac
Egotistical, chest sticking out (Oh baby)
Think your God's gift to me, oh
(That's not me, that's not me, that's not me)
Hate to do it to you like this
(You oughta know by now baby)
But I got to do it cause it's only right
To let you know I'm not looking
For no arrogant, egotistical player shit
(I hear you)
Do you really hear me, then hear this
I'm sick and tired of chasing you
(I understand you, baby)
Sick and tired of holding you
(I said I hear you)
Go 'head, go 'head
All my ladies stand up and clap
(I understand you)
If you feel me, if you feel me
(I'm so sorry, baby)
Come with something better than that, please
I know your sorry
