Do ooooh
Ooooh..... [repeated]
oh babe I -I II

I lied
I said you were the truth
you took it as the truth
and now I got you
but I don't want you like that
there only lives one love
and of that you can't compare to
and that's the bare-naked truth
[pause]

You knew
and I knew
but you didn't want to hear
what I didn't want to tell you
now we've got hard times....
and now there's no love at home
when separate we build so alone
but we can't stand to be together
to talk about it
had time
to inc
thoughts instead
of bodies
this can't be love

[pause]

what if we
produced a shorty
hard times would still be visual
within this love
within our love
this can't be love
and that's the bare-naked

You took it as the truth
and now I got you
but I don't want you like that
there only lives one love
and of that you can't compare to
and that's the bare-naked truth
I said you were the truth
you took it as the tru-u-uth
we can't stand to be together
to talk about it
but we can't stand to be
apart long enough to hear this thing baby
you and I started off good
findin' time to spend time
I said what you wanted to hear
now you need to go
I lied
I said you were the truth
you took it as the truth
and now I got you
but I don't want you like that
there only lives one love
and of that you can't compare to
and that's the bare-naked truth
and you need to
take that as the truth

If our words were truly fact
we probably still wouldn't have love
but we would love what we had
but we don't
reality is we like
now you and I must say goodbye
can't you see the
bare-naked start to speak

I'm a young man
world is mine
I shoulda' been
straight with you from the beginning
you probably wasn't even lookin' for a man

[pause]

oh
this time has been
no doubt interesting
but now that we broke up
I'm thinking this mighta' been love
this coulda been love
damn what the...
i'ts just my luck

[finger snappin'...]
this sounds like some 'ol west coast...


. . .



It used to be that we would be the best of all friends
It turned to be l-o-v-e and I was your man
So, you where my lady friend, we'd spen time
Found a way to be by your side

Through the ins, the outs, the wrongs and rights
After a while of being settled down, I didn' know how
To keep the love, 'cause I was you
I wish I knew then what I know now

I wouldn' have let you go
I swear I would have make this love grow
I spent a lot of time and a lot of dough
Trying to match what we had and now I...

[CHORUS]
I was hopin' we could find a way
To have what we had again today
Though it's been some time since you and I
It wouldn't hurt to try, to find our love

I did know, until you left, I loved your smile
Just the other day, your girls said that you can't stand me
I know you don't mean that, can't we
Just slow down a minute and talk it out

I've been through my share of love since then
Don't know about what you've been through
But nothing compares to what we had
All I know is I need you back
Baby, let's try again to find our love

[CHORUS]

I can't forget, the times we shared
Didn't know love until love was gone
Til' I moved on and now I'm right back to square one again

[CHORUS: repeat]

(Chorus)
Money don’t mean a thing
I’d rather have someone that makes me happy
Know the one, Me, her, love
Holdin each other, watchin the sun come up
And I would give up everything
Just to have a shorty that loves me
For me

(Verse 1)
I got a house on a hill with 17 niggas around me
But it feels empty (yes it does)
And I can call two or three girls at the same time to make love to me
But I still feel lonely (so lonely)
Now I can go from 0 to 60 in my V-1-2 with the chromed out shoes
But it feels like I’m standing still (standing still)
We can take a cruise around the world
And I’ll pay the cost
But I feel lost (I feel so lost)
Money don’t mean a thing
(Chorus)


(Verse 2)
When I look out my window I can see a small body of water
And I wish I could sail away (sail away)
For it ain’t that far
I can probably can get from here to Amsha
A place in the motherland, Y’all don’t understand
From the outside, looking in, I live the perfect life
But that ain’t right no, no, no (so far from right)
So I do what I gotta do
Just to take it through (I’m waitin on you)
Cause it don’t mean a thing, without you
Money don’t mean a thing
(Chorus)


Money dont mean a thing (money don’t mean a thing, no)
Money don’t mean a thing
Money don’t mean a thing
How many times have you had money in your life
But it didn’t make things right
Money don’t mean a thing
(Chorus) fade away

(feat. Eric Roberson)

(Ohh Ohh ohh
Oohhh Oohhh Oohhh
Hold on if you don't mind
Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh
Woa Woa Woa)

Open your ears
Don't allow these words to be ignored by years
Fearing lullibies, containing the same old lies (same old lies)
Dealing just to deal is just a crime,
Besides I know you wouldn't mind
Trying something new so...

[CHORUS:]
Let's (Let's)Try (Try)
We can work it out
If you let love(love) guide (guide)
The way that you feel for me,
Oh(Oh) Why(Why),
You should hold on

Please don't resist (don't resist)
Bless those harmonies to me, escape your lips (escape your lips)
There's no need to go home,
Just to dance along (dance aloo-o-one)
I know you can't enjoy it on your own
Really I don't see nothing wrong
With you and I spending some time-

Also let me mention, (Oooh)
My only intention, (Oooh)
Is to feed you every single thing you hunger for-
In my heart I have to (Oooh)
And- want to have you (Oooh)
So fulfilled that you will never need to ask for more-

[CHORUS]

[Bridge]
(So)Girl instead of running from my love-,
You can run to,
To these arms that's meant for you-
So why (so why not) not stay (stay) around

[CHORUS: x2]

(You should hold onnnnn
Feelings so stonnnnng
You should hold onnnnn
Feelings so stronnnnnng
You should hold on)


. . .



Trust me baby I confide in your love
Time away makes me come back to you can't deny
Anyway that we coincide is love
All we know is to love with our souls
While dripping love's liquor
I get a kick...out of you
Trust me baby I confide.I confide now yea
Something tells me you and I
Should never be alone
Soon baby you and I will be
Too mellow, I'm telling you, you bring out of me
A dripping, romantic, singer I...
I get a kick...out of you
As long as the sun will shine
As far as the sky will fly I...
I get a kick...out of you


. . .



Palm trees, green leaves
colors in the fall
happiness of spring
a sun ray, peaking through a, light rain
sharing a nightfall feeling pleasures pain
a sunrise a night gone
perfect scenery a perfect background song
your melody your harmony
the beauty of your song
to the point I can't respond

[hook:]
This how I feel when I'm around you
sky would fall without you
heaven's lost without you
and it's gone be alright
when I'm around you
sky would fall without you
heaven's lost without you
and it's gone be alright

the wobble in my knees, first touch
summer love ice cream cone
nights shared with you
nights spent alone
butterflies, first love
sweaty palms embracing a first hug
I'm moved to say in thought of you
I can't imagine living life without you

[hook:]
This how I feel when I'm around you
sky would fall without you
heaven's lost without you
and it's gone be alright
when I'm around you
sky would fall without you
heaven's lost without you
and it's gone be alright
repeat until the end....

You Know I Want You're Whoomp
Tell Me How To Do
Feel Things That You Want Me To Do
Hit Me To The Plan
Amnesia To Ya Man
We'll Do Things He Can't Comprehend

You Know I Want You're Whoomp
Tell Me How To Do
Feel Things That You Want Me To Do

Amnesia To Ya Man
We'll Do Things He Don't Understand

We'll Do Thing He Can't Comprehend

This night the thunder head's lookin' lovely
Come here baby, let me drop this dime in your ear
You lookin' bubbly, I mean lovely, hug me
I was right, your bubbly
How you like the joint that's fluctuatin' JBLs
(uh that's nice)
That's me
How would you like to come back to my pad, lay low in my studio
I don't know for a day or so, I'm not rushin' this
We can groove at Cafe Mahogany

I met this lady at Mahogany repeat

[Dwele:]
yea they call me the don, you know..nah, I'm just playin'
What's the deal with you tonight?
[Lady:]
nothin', what's up with you?
[Dwele:]
ain't nothin' up, you know what I'm sayin'
You came with your girls?
yea, those my girls right over there
[Dwele:]
well I got my dogs...
[Big Tone:]
a yo yo, Dwele...
Ol' girl over there hittin' you up with the mad dog dude,
Ice grillin', callin' you
[Lady:]
who is that?
[Dwele:]
Oh God, let's roll

Lady of mahogany I'll do for you
Why is it that my ex girl is all up in my grill?
Must be that new Colgate, no wait
I feel some jealousy
While she's gettin' the soda, I'm gonna slide to the sofa
And proceed to kick monopoly to lady of mahogany
Lax with my love love and some herbal tea
Young lady grabbed the mic to kick some poetry
Her whole shit was directed to the Dwele G
While at the same time grimmin at my ex lady
Lazy I think you better call security
Thangs bout to get shady at the H.P.

[Spoken word:]
Our souls have known only for one night
Yet it feels we have united despite old skeletons
With so much x in their name they should be pro black
At a constant look from your closet askin who's that?
Get the fuck back in your closet shouts to the ex flame
Your loss...My gain...Peace...

[vocals:]
Do your thang, it's your show
Speak your peace then, let's roll
Watch your back my ex is getting close
You didn't have to break her nose
I came out here to enjoy myself
Now you got to come start some wild shit
Next time do me a favor, stay your ass at home
And leave my new babygirl alone

There she goes again
walking home, all alone
looking sad, baby where's your friends?
Why you never smile?
Let the sun, wash away, all your pain, so your inner child
(oooh) could fly, maybe we can be friends, and I'll dry your pretty eyes.

[Chorus:]
Get up off your sorrow
Shake it out, all around
Throw it up, your hands high
and let your hair down [x2]

There's no need to hide,
grab your purse and your keys,
Come on out, and let the world decide
Girl there's time to play
'Cause tomorrow's untold
Let your dreams unfold your day

Just fly, tell me we can be friends, and I'll dry your pretty eyes
[Chorus:]
Get up off your sorrow
Shake it out, all around
Throw it up, your hands high
and let your hair down [x4]

Don't you be afraid, don't you be afraid. Let your hair down, shake it off girl.

[Bridge:]
Girl, don't be afraid. I'm gonna show you a thousand ways: to let go of your heart, I'll lead the way. If you just let me show you, I wanna see you let your hair down [repeat]

[Chorus: until fade]
