See my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin while im with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I keep on running back to you
See my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin while im with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I keep on running back to you

Baby I don't know why ya treatin me so bad
You said you love me, no one above me
And I was all you had
And though my heart is eating for ya
I can't stop crying
I don't know how
I allow you to treat me this way and still i stay

See my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin while im with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I keep on running back to you
See my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin while im with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I keep on running back to you

Baby I don't know why ya wanna do me wrong
See when I'm home, I'm all alone
And you are always gone
And boy, you kno I really love you
I can't deny
I can't see how you could bring me to so many tears
after all these years

See my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin while im with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I keep on running back to you
See my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin while im with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I keep on running back to you
Oohhhhh
I trusted you, I trusted you
So sad, so sad
what love will make you do
all the things that we accept
be the things that we regret
too all of my ladies (ladies) feel me
c'mon sing wit me
See, when I get the strength to leave
You always tell me that you need me
And I'm weak cause I believe you
And I'm mad because I love you
So I stop and think that maybe
You can learn to appreciate me
Then it all remains the same that
You ain't never gonna change
(never gonna change, never gonna change)
See my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin while im with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I keep on running back to you
See my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin while im with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I keep on running back to you

Baby why you hurt me leave me and desert me
Boy I gave you all my heart
And all you do is tear it up
Looking out my window
Knowing that I should go
Even when I pack my bags
This something always hold me back

If you were me, what would you do
Always a lie and never the truth
Now as for me, I'm movin' on
You'll always be my baby

Baby, I just have to let you go for now
Thought I could take it for awhile
Maybe you'll make it back around
Baby, I just have to live my life for now
Can't seem to change it for awhile
Hope that we could make it back around

Anything that I want I can get it, boy
You know you turn me on and on
That's why I switched my frame of mind
To be there when you call, always on time

I'm lookin' to spread my wings and party
Everything and for everybody
Give me space, no time alone
It's like our hearts don't match no more

Still anything that you want, you can get it, boy
You know I still got love for you
(You'd call, I'd leave with you)
Now baby

Baby, I just have to let you go for now
Thought I could take it for awhile
Maybe you'll make it back around
Baby, I just have to live my life for now
Can't seem to change it for awhile
Hope that we could make it back around

When you was cheatin' you was probably thinkin' I was
Sad to think, but love got bumpy catchin' up to lies
And your lies can't look me straight in the eyes
I'm not surprised

You hurt me, baby
Don't bother me, baby
Just let me breathe and have my freedom

If you were me, what would you do
Always a lie and never the truth
Now as for me, I'm movin' on
You'll always be my baby

Baby, I just have to let you go for now
Thought I could take it for awhile
Maybe you'll make it back around
Baby, I just have to live my life for now
Can't seem to change it for awhile
Hope that we could make it back around

Yo', yo'
Why in the world would you wanna leave me, girl
Is there somethin' I did
The truth is that you was here at home
And I know a b**** can do bad on her own
You're not alone the way you hurt me, baby
S*** why me, baby
I'll free your pain
But little did I know that love was good
And as long as I let you go
That you'll feel the need to come back to me, baby
Who else can hold you and sex you crazy
R-U-L-E
Come back and holler at me, baby

Baby, I just have to let you go for now
Thought I could take it for awhile
Maybe you'll make it back around
Baby, I just have to live my life for now
Can't seem to change it for awhile
Hope that we could make it back around

Baby, I just have to let you go for now
Thought I could take it for awhile
Maybe you'll make it back around
Baby, I just have to live my life for now
Can't seem to change it for awhile
Hope that we could make it back around

If you were me, what would you do
Always a lie and never the truth
Now as for me, I'm movin' on
You'll always be my baby

Me and this guy had a real strange relationship.
It's like we had some kind of power over each other.
I remember this one time, he called me,
It had to be like four in the morning,
it was like pouring outside, and I was knocked out.
But it was like when... when I heard his voice
Something got me out of bed, and I had to come to him.
And it's like whenever you call I come running

[Chorus]
When you call I come running baby,
baby when you call I'll be right there baby, baby when you
call I come running baby, baby when you call I'll be right.
[Verse 1]
What's the deal with you and me I know you feel the chemistry,
I can tell what's on your mind,
the same thing that's on mine,
oooh I feel it coming on the way I feel it baby it just can't be
wrong ooooh! I want you needing me
and I'll come running baby that's the way it's gonna be.
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Tell me do you think of me, with you is where I wanna be cause,
boy I got you on my brain, I
know you feel the same ooooooh! I feel it coming on,
the way I feel it baby it just can't be
wrong oooooh! I want you needing me,
and I'll come running baby that's the way it's gonna be.
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Oh no baby I can't stop baby
Oh no baby I can't stop baby
Oh no baby I can't stop baby
Oh no
baby I can't stop baby.
Oooooh! I feel it coming on, the way I feel it baby it just can't be
wrong ooooh! I want you needing me,
and I'll come running baby that't the way it's gonna be.
[Chorus]
Just call on me baby
Oh no baby I can't stop baby
Oh no baby I can't stop baby
Oh no baby I can't stop baby
Oh no
baby I can't stop baby baby

[Irv Gotti]
Ma what's going on
We sitting here man
Digging on each other I'm feeling the shit out of you
You feeling the shit out of me
What you scared don't be scared
[Verse 1]
It was around 11:30 when I realized I miss you,
sitting at home all alone thinking what did I
just do, feeling was strong coming on and I knew I wanted you,
something inside me held me back,
boy you got me scared of you.
[Chorus 2x]
You got me afraid to let my love go.
Is it my heart that I should follow.
Got me afraid to let myself go.
Got me scared of you.
[Irv Gotti]
See,see what what it's like it's like we got to get over this hump ma
until we get over this hump, it's going to be fucked up!
[Verse 2]
If I let go I don't know if my heart will remain strong
cause you the type that just might give
right and get me strong I couldn't be just a girl
that your're seeing once a month cause if it
goes down better believe I'm gonna be your only one
[Chorus 2x]
[Bridge 2x]
Should I let it go,
Should I let it go no no no no
Should I let it go,
Should I let it go no no
no no no no
[Chorus 2x]
[Bridge 2x]
[Irv Gotti]
What's the problem ma,
I can see it in ya eyes you want me just how I want you, you still
scared, you still scared it's cool though,
I'll be scared too fuckin' with a nigga like me, I'll
be scared too, it's aight though, I'm a wait on you, just holla back aight.


[Thanks to BabyShai1284@aol.com for these lyrics]

You still scared, I'll be scared too, it's cool though just holla back aight.
[Verse 1]
All alone and I'm feeling wanted
Try to wait but my body's calling, you're the one so why don't
you come and rescue me,
I'll be here while you on your way, counting down till I see your face,
hurry up cause I love the way you rescue me.
Now your're here, come on out, the rain soaking wet
body glistening, finally we could do something so rescue me,
Can't believe how it's going down,
I'm so obsessed with this love I found it got my head spinning
round and round just rescue me.
[Chorus]
All night long Take me away to another place,
rescue me save me, save me save me all night long
Take me away to another place rescue me
Save me, save me, save me
[Verse 2]
I come alive when I feel your thouch
and I can drown In this pool of love, you could get what I'm thinking of
Come rescue me, what you think couldn't be replaced
if you were gone I would find a way to get you back,
cause I love the way you rescue me, laying here with you in the dark
I always knew you could shift my heart,
when I'm with you I don't want to stop so rescue me,
only you can fulfill my need take me away from this agony,
I want to live out my fantasy just rescue me.
[Chorus 4x]


[Thanks to BabyShai1284@aol.com for these lyrics]

I don't remember feeling like this...
Baby...Baby I love you...Baby...Baby I love you.
[Verse 1]
I got this jones forming in my bones (from a man)
who indeed took over my soul, (understand)
I couldn't breathe if he ever said (he would leave),
get on my knees till they bloody red, (baby please)
see I don't know if you get it yet, (just don't know)
He's like the lighter to my cigarette,
(watch me smoke), I never knew another human life
(didn't know) can have the power to take over mine,
So baby baby.
[Chorus]
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,(baby I love you) baby,
baby,baby baby,baby, I love it when I hear
ya name, got me sayin' baby, baby, baby,
baby, baby,(baby I love you) baby, baby, baby, baby, baby.
[Verse 2]
See, I could never feel alone with you (in my life),
I gave up everything I own for you (won't
think twice), almost a shame how I'm mesmerized (such a shame),
I loose my thought looking in your eyes (I know why)
because your kisses make my lips quiver and (that's real) and when you
touch me my whole body shivers. (I can feel) now,
I can see how another life(nother life) you
have the power to take over mine cause your my.
[Chorus 2x]
[Verse 3]
Baby, I can't see my worth (I can't see) living here on
God's green earth, you don't know what
you've done to me, (done to me) I never thought
I'd need you desperately,(desperately) it's kind
of sick how I'm stuck on you(stuck on you)
but I don't care cause I'm needing you (I'm needing you)
and how I feel will remain the same (remains the same)
cause your're my baby, (cause your my baby)
listen and when the world starts to stress me out,
(where I run) it's to you boy without
a doubt (you're the one) who keeps me sane and I can't complain
(can't complain) you're like a
drug you relieve my pain (may seem strange)
you're like the blood flowing through my vain, (oooo)
keeps me alive and feeding my brain,
(oooo) now this is how another human life (nother life) could
have the power to take over mine cause your my
[Chorus 2x]

[Phone Ringing]
What's up you've reached Ashanti leave me a numeric message or a
voice message and I'll get back to you lata [beep]
Hey girl what's up it's me, yo man remember
your friend and I've been calling you for the past three weeks
you've never returned any of my
calls, what happened I thought I was going to see you
at the spot last night yo everybody's
askin' for you, and you know who be looking for you like crazy,
man what's going on, what's come
over you?
[Chorus]
I don't know whats come over me I don't know,
I don't know whats come over me, I don't know
whats come over me, I don't know I don't know whats come over me
[Verse 1]
Because I never felt like this, (I don't want to be wrong cause I like it)
thinking about the way you kiss,
(I don't want to be wrong but I like it)
I think you stole my heart from me, (See I don't want to be wrong cause I like it)
Cause I belong to somebody (even though it seems wrong I
can't fight it)it almost feels as if I'm not myself,
I'm nervous bound from someone else I think
I'm falling for somebody else and I can't control myself
it's like some kind of hex is on me
controlling who I love and how I speak
and when it's gone my heart won't beat tell me whats come
over me.
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Because I never felt like this, (I don't want to be wrong cause I like it)
thinking about the way you kiss,
(I don't want to be wrong but I like it)
You got me thinking I should leave, (see I don't want to be wrong cause I like it).
But I belong to somebody (even though it seems wrong I can't fight it)
I know that I already have a love, he's all I know and all I trust but lately
I've been falling out of love I find myself so deep in lust
and every time he's here with me I
look into his eyes so desperately but now it's not his face I see,
tell me what comes over me
[Chorus]
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
(I just don't know) I don't know (what's come over me),
I don't know, I don't know , I don't know, I don't know, I don't
know, (it's like something is taking complete control over me)
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know,
( I can't function I'm not me) I don't know, I don't
know, I don't know what's come over me, I don't know, I don't know
What's come over me, I don't
know what's come over me, I don't know, I don't know,
What's come over me, I don't know, I don't
know what's come over me...

[Verse 1]
Looking in the mirror I can see myself standing in your
Arms holding me and kissing me and loving me, oooh
You just can't get enough of me now I'm on the phone telling
You I'm all alone so come on over I'm out the shower now,
about to oil down I can't wait till you get here.
[Chorus 2x]
I wanna be like those girls in the movies,
to have a man so in love it makes him drop to his
knees she's even on his mind while he's asleep at night
cause that's the feeling you've given me.
[Verse 2]
I'm almost ready to accept the truth I'm in love with you
and I wanna tell you I'm glad that
you're here, uh and now we're face to face in the candlelight,
I'm watching your eyes watching
mine layin here with you, feel so good, feel so good.
With your hand in mine we don't have to
worry about time,or what the future brings
we can just let it be the way you smile
At me I already see you don't wanna leave so we can just
Sit back, relax and let it move naturally.
[Chorus 4x]
Yeah thats the feeling Baby..Baby

{Ashanti}Yo, we need to talk
[Guy]Here we go again. What we need to talk about man?
{Ashanti} We need to talk about us and whats' going on.
[Guy] Yea that's what we need to talk about?
{Ashanti} You know I've been thinking. I don't think I'm gonna be able to
Forgive and forget all this s*** you've been doing.This just aint working out.
[Guy] Yea,you know you've been thinking, you know I've been thinking too, you

know what I've been thinking. I've been thinking the person that I got with
aint standing in front of me. You done did a whole flip and change on a n****

man.
{Ashanti}Yea well guess what? You done changed. You know all this shit you've

been doing. You know, how you expect me to be the same person. I'm not the same

person, why, cause of the s*** you've been doing.
[Guy] So what the f*** you saying man?
{Ashanti}What am I saying?
[Guy] Yea what the f*** are you saying?!
{Ashanti} I'm saying it's over!

[Chorus 2x]
Can't believe that it's over baby
But every bruse on my heart you gave me
See we tried but we fight then we cried now it's over babe it's over babe.
[Verse 1]
When I met you I knew you would be the one,
me cause looking at you made me feel kind of
crazy,now what you asked I almost did it automatically
but it was nothing compared to the joy you gave me.
Although I know that what we had it wasn't perfect babe,
you fooled around, but see back then it didn't phase me
I thought by staying, trying to change you would be worth it babe,
but now I see that trying to change you only changed me.
All these tears,and all of your lies
all these years and now we're saying goodbye, it's over babe.
[Chorus 2x]
[Verse 2]
Now I'm thinking that I never should have dealt with you,
all this screaming and this yelling
that we go through raining late at night I'm sitting waiting up for you
just to tell you how I hate who you turned into,
see ain't no way I'm gonna sit and take this shit from you,
I'm never playing another day of being your fool,
I wasted all my time on something that just wasn't true,
I should have known I could never ever change you.
All these tears, and all of your lies,
all these years and now we're saying goodbye it's over babe.
[Chorus 2x]
I'll never forget what you did to me so I'm gone I'm leaving leaving baby,
I'll never forget
what you did to me so I'm gone I'm leaving leaving baby.
Whenever you see me don't even speak,
I'll never forget what you did to me.
Whenever you see me don't even speak, I'll never forget what you did to me.
[Chorus 4x]
I'll never forget what you did to me so I'm gone I'm leaving, leaving baby.
I'll never forget
what you did to me so I'm gone I'm leaving, leaving baby.

See, my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin' while I'm with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I can't keep runnin' back to you

See, my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin' while I'm with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I won't keep runnin' back to you

I think about my strength to finally get up and leave
No more broken heart for me
No more tellin' your lies to me
I'm lookin' like I got my head on right, so now I see
No more givin' you everything
There's no more takin' my love from me

See, my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin' while I'm with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I can't keep runnin' back to you

See, my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin' while I'm with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I won't keep runnin' back to you

I'm glad to wake up every day without you on my brain
No more where you're laid up at night
No more havin' to fuss and fight
I'm proud to say that I will never make the same
mistake
No more thinkin' 'bout what you do
There's no more me runnin' back to you

See, my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin' while I'm with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I can't keep runnin' back to you

See, my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin' while I'm with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I won't keep runnin' back to you

Some say the ex makes the sex spectacular
Make me lick you from your neck to your back
And you're shiverin', tongue deliverin'
Chills up that spine, that a** is mine
Stick with wine and the candlelight, no Cristal
tonight
If it's alright wit' you we f***in' (That's cool)
Déjà vu, the blood spark, finger f***in' in the park
This is your Bacardi Dark
Remember when I used to play between your legs, you
begged for me to stop
Because you know where it would head, straight to your
mother's bed
Not the Marriott, we be lucky if we find a spot
Next to your sister, damn, I really miss
The way she used to rub my back when I hit that
Way she used to giggle when your ask would wiggle
Now I know you're used to suites at the Park or
Meridian
Trips to the Caribbean, but tonight no ends

You must be used to me cryin', cryin'
While you're out bumpin' and grindin'
But I'm leavin' you tonight

See, my days are cold without you
But I'm hurtin' while I'm with you
And though my heart can't take no more
I can't keep running back to you

You must be used to me cryin', cryin'
While you're out bumpin' and grindin'
But I'm leavin' you tonight

Shi Shi:Hey Shanti. It's me Shia I just want to call and congratulate you on
every thing that's been going on and let you know that we all miss you up here

I'm glad that your dreams are finally coming true You inspire me your little
sister Shia call me back Butthead!

[Children Talking]
[Chorus 2x]
Dreams are real all you have to do is just believe
[Verse 1]
There is nothing that should ever take your heart away
From what it is you wanna to do
You should always go with what you love
Don't follow no one else just do whats good for you, tell them
[Chorus 2x]
[Verse 2]
Sometimes people try to bring you down
They wanna see you frown just keep your faith in you,
doesn't matter if they try to tell you that you'll
Never make it this is what you do, tell them
[Chorus 2x]
Tell them
[Chorus 5x]
[Children]
I believe in myself and my dreams will come true
