My name is Marques...Barrett...Houston.
My mommy's name is Carrolyn and my daddy's name is Michael.
And my brother's name is Brandon and my sister is Danyelle.
I like Michael Jackson and Eddie Murphy.
And sometimes my grandmother Bebe comes over and she going
to put me in a movie and we going to be rich.

Even when I was 2 I knew I'd be something. I thank God because
without him none of this would be.
When I was 8 I was on my "Worst Behavior."
By the time I was 12 "Playtime Was Over."
When I was 14 I told the world "We Got It."
And at 16 I took you on my "Journey."
At 18 I introduced you to "IMX."
And at 20 IMX came to an end.
But then again every end has a new beginning.
At 21 that beginning gave birth to "MH."
At 23 MH got "Naked."

After millions of albums sold, hundreds of magazine covers,
3 years in a row making ya'll "Scream", 7 seasons of television,
and the number 1 movie that made the whole world wanna dance.

From the beginning to now, I survived the rumors, the negativity,
the drama, the break ups, the make ups, the confusion between me
and people about me saying shit on the radio I never said.
I inspired the new generation of music

I don't wanna be calling your phone
I don't care what time you get home
And I hate the fact that you live so damn close to me
I don't like that I can't stop thinking bout you
And I hate that you walk like you do (ohh baby)

[Pre-Chorus:]
But it's just something bout ya
And I just can't take it
Girl it's just something bout ya
And I just can't take it

It's your thighs, your lips, your calves, your lips,
It's your hair, did I mention your lips

[Chorus:]
Why I behold you
Why do I want you
Always and forever
Always and forever

Cause girl you got it
I'm goin keep it
Oh you got me trippin on you
So that's why I want you
Always and forever

I don't want to be pickin you up,
Taking you on dates and shi*
I don't wana be payin your bills,
Gettin you all spoiled and shi*
Don't want you to decorate my house but I can't help it
Girl you make me feel so comfortable
I'd be damned if I let you go (ohh)

[Pre-Chorus & Chorus]

I try hard to keep my cool but I
Can't live, I can't, I shake cause I'm
So strung on you
But it's cool cause I'm gettin all my hits from you
And girl it gets to me the way that I'm feelin
It's so crazy cause I don't know how I'm dealin
Girl if I lose you I'm done
Cause I know you're that one

[Chorus]

. . .


[Verse 1:]
I've been with 9s and 10s
Some come around again
I've seen a dime or two
They don't compare to you
So many things i like
Too many to even name
I wanna be your man
I hope you feel the same

[Chorus:]
Baby all I wanna do is hold you
And show you how much i adore you
Want you, need you
Baby, you're . . . you're my favorite girl
Baby you're the only one
I wanna give you the world

Yea, you're . . . you're my favorite girl
You really really got it going on
Everything that a man could want
You're my favorite girl
Hmm, you're my favorite girl

[Verse 2:]
Girl no more playing games
I'm done with other dames
I figure what's the use, there's really no excuse
Many good qualities, I can't think of one complaint
That's why you're number one
And all the others ain't

[Chorus:]
Baby all I wanna do is hold you
And show you how much i adore you
Want you, need you
Baby, you're... you're my favorite girl
Baby you're the only one
I wanna give you the world

Yea, you're... you're my favorite girl
You really really got it going on
Everything that a man could want
You're my favorite girl

[Bridge:]
You're everything a man like me could ever want
Give me what I need and nothing that I don't
Girl I promise I'll always have your back
You're all I need

you're... you're my favorite girl
Baby you're the only one
I wanna give you the world

Yea, you're... you're my favorite girl
You really really got it going on
Everything that a man could want
You're my favorite girl

you're... you're my favorite girl
Baby you're the only one
I wanna give you the world

Yea, you're . . . you're my favorite girl
You really really got it going on
Everything that a man could want
You're my favorite girl

You're my favorite girl
(You're my favorite girl)
You're my favorite girl
You're my favorite...

. . .


[Intro: Whisper]
Yeah...
You know what's funny?
Seems like every time I try to forget about you,
My feelings pull me back in.
You see, it's crazy,
'Cause I got somebody else,
You got somebody else.
But you and I both know,
That it really is...
But still,
You know what I'm saying, B?

Ran across a picture you took of me,
And you cross my mind.
I still hear you sayin' you love me,
When I close my eyes.
If I didn't go away to school,
Then where would we be?
Probably still together and somewhere happy.
If I'm suppose to be moved on in a new relationship strong,
Then why are you still hauntin' me?

They say...

[Chorus:]
If you love something, then let go,
And if it comes back then that's how you know.
I got to the stop light then I made four rights.
Now I'm back where I started,
And you're back in my life.
And is it possible to get back to you?
I say I moved on,
Til' I'm reminded of you.
Can somebody help me?
help me get out of this circle (out of this circle).

I drove past your house the other day,
I didn't even mean to,
I went there all the way.
I aint seen your mama in a while.
When she looked at me, she smiled,
And asked me if I'm doing okay.
Took everything I have,
Not to bring of your name.
And wonder if you came home for the holidays, yeah...
She asked if I could stay awhile,
Cause you had come in too,
And you were just five minutes away.

[Chorus:]
If you love something, let it go,
And if it comes back then that's how you know.
I got to the stop light then I made four rights.
Now I'm back where I started,
And you're back in my life.
And is it possible to get back to you?
I say I moved on,
Til' I'm reminded of you.
Can somebody help me?
help me get out of this circle (out of this circle).

To anybody who's listening to this,
If you got the person that makes you wonder what if,
Let me hear you say yeah (yeah),
Say yeah (yeah)...
Say yeah (yeah)...
Oh yeah (oh yeah)...
If you understand how I feel,
Then grab that person now to let her know what's real.
Let me hear you say yeah (yeah),
Yeah (yeah)...
Yeah, hey...

[Chorus:]
If you love something, let it go,
And if it comes back then that's how you know.
I got to the stop light then I made four rights.
Now I'm back where I started,
And you're back in my life.
And is it possible to get back to you?
I say I moved on,
Til' I'm reminded of you.
Can somebody help me?
help me get out of this circle (out of this circle).

Trouble burning up my mind
She's the spot in my shade
Thirsty for her all the time
She's my cold and my name

If there was a way i could put it, make it
So that you could understand

When we started out girl, we weren't official
If I didn't see you everyday it wasn't an issue
(Damn, look how we've grown)
(The only thing I spend my money on, yeah, yeah)
I didn't even used to tell you that I missed you
Now I'm rushing through my day just to be with you
(You're like a new drug I'm on)
(And I can't leave you alone, yeah, yeah)
Don't understand what's going on with me

[Chorus:]

Got me really thinking 'bout putting my pimp cup down
Exclusively
How I was living, I done backed it up
Bout to trade a two-seater for a family truck
Exclusively
Exclusively, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2:]
Oh, I'm usually not the type to get caught up
Had to stop and think
Rewind this thing up
Either I'm losing my mind or I'm falling in love
I don't wanna be, no oh

(feat. Mya & Shawnna)

[Intro: Shawnna]
Why you treat me like you do?

Cause i just cant get enough
And i just wanna feel you touch
I just gotta know whatsup, wutsup, wutsup

[Verse 1: Marques Houston]
Hey girl come here sit down
Lemme holla at you a while
Gotta get this off my chest
Hope that you can handle it
We've been seeing each other a lot
Honestly I dont want it to stop
You and me; Me and you
Im liking what we've got
Only thing thats bothering me
We aint as close as we should be
Thats cause your holding back
Holding back you love for me
How do you expect to grow if you just wont let go

[Chorus: Marques Houston]
Why you tryna hold back

When you know you want it just like I do
Why you acting like that, girl dont do me like that
All Im tryna do is be next to you
Why you tryna hold back
Why you tryna hold back
All I want is you

[Verse 2: Mya]
Dont take offense to this
Not tryna start no mess
Aint tryna have you stressed
This is just a little test
I wanna see how serious
Serious you are of us
Do you like or like me not
Im loving what we've got
Only thing that bothers me
We aint close as we should be
Thats cause your holding back
Holding back you love for me
How do expect this thing to grow
If you dont let it go go go

[Chorus: Mya and Marques Houston]
Babe
Why you tryna hold back
Why you tryna hold back
When you know you want it just like I do
Why you acting like that, girl dont do me like that

[Verse 3: Shawnna]
Everytime I get to thinking bout you

But wait right quick cant slip

Dont know what to do
Gotta just relax and hold back
Just sit back and roll back

[Chorus: Mya and Marques Houston]
Babe
Why you tryna hold back

When you know you want it just like I do
Wht you acting like that, girl dont do me like that

Kimberly, I'm so glad you made it
You're finally here
If these walls could talk they'll tell you secrets of how
I've been anticipating you
I know you want me to satisfy ya
And to gratify your desires
Your body's whispering to my soul
Telling me to take control

[Chorus]
Come along with me cus my ride don't stop
We can make love that the neighbours watch
Open up the blinds let the whole world see
MH and Kimberly
Baby I can take you to that place
Where you can freely scream, touch and taste
I can make your fantasy.. reality.. Kimberly...
Kimberly..

Kimberly
You're crawling on my bed, climbing close to me
And I can hardly breathe, cos i still cant believe
Lay your hand on my chest, gently lifting your knees.. slowly started grinding
Hot hot destination ecstasy
First class tickets to it
No time for frontin do it
Your tears got your eyeliner running down your face
Youre so sexy I can feel your body shake
The ceiling fan's spinning
And the light is low
I got frequent flyer knowledge
Oooh
Come on you ready?

The ceiling fan's spinning
And the light is low
I got frequent flyer knowledge
Theres no limit to how far i might go
To explore is the key
Take me Kimberly

[Chorus]
Come along with me cus my ride don't stop
We can make love that the neighbours watch
Open up the blinds let the whole world see
MH and Kimberly
Baby I can take you to that place
Where you can freely scream, touch and taste
I can make your fantasy.. reality.. Kimberly...
Kimberly..

Kimberly

Anytime you want me
Anytime you want me baby I'll be your playboy
Anytime you feel you want me baby
I'll be there to feel the force
Its like the call of the wild
Its like the call of the wild when we're making love
More than just physical (its more than just physical Kimba)
Deep inside of every woman there's a Kimberly
She's incredible... (She's incredible)

[Chorus]
Come along with me cus my ride don't stop
We can make love that the neighbours watch
Open up the blinds let the whole world see
MH and Kimberly
Baby I can take you to that place
Where you can freely scream, touch and taste
I can make your fantasy.. reality.. Kimberly...
Kimberly..

[Verse 1:]
Hey baby tell me your name
And tell me where you're from
Give me your number
Let me call you up
Sometime, girl I think you're so fine
And I thought maybe we could hook up
and go out on the town
Hop in my ride and let me show you 'round my hood
Thinkin' on the first

Of something good
I don't wanna waste your time
I don't wanna pressure you
I really wanna get next to you
Baby you...

[Chorus:]
Baby you so right for me
Baby you so fly to me
Baby you and I could be
(You and I were meant to be girl)
Can't you see, so right for me

[Verse 2:]
Can't blame you
Overprotected of an open heart
Looking for a reason to break this heart
Cause I know what you want
Sweet lady, give me a chance
and Ima prove you wrong
I got a feeling we can get along just fine
Never mind the guys that come with different lines

See I don't want to waste your time
I don't want to pressure you
I really wanna get next to you
Baby you...

[Chorus:]
Baby you so right for me
Baby you so fly to me
Baby you and I could be
(You and I were meant to be girl)
Can't you see, so right for me

[Verse 3:]
Girl I'm telling you I need a chance baby
The other girls I know are all the same
I really need someone to know me
Love me, touch me oh girl
Like you baby, I know you meet a lot of guys this way, yea

See I don't want to waste your time
I don't want to pressure you
I really wanna get next to you
Baby you...

[Chorus: x3]
Baby you so right for me
Baby you so fly to me
Baby you and I could be
Can't you see, so right for me

(verse 1)
I wish that I could explain it, just why my heart won't slow down
Girl your body so amazing, tryna chill but I don't know how
Call me crazy but I know it's love is what I'm feelin'
Just one simple touch is more then enough to get me goin'

(Chorus)
Something about you gets me so excited
When I'm around you, I just cannot hide it
Try to hold myself, but I just can't fight it
One look in your eyes and baby I'm excited

(verse 2)
Say it's the way you move, your smile, your hair (everything about you)
To feel your kiss it makes it worse (what I gotta go through)
Said I'm bugging out everytime we hangin'out
Cuz it's in my mind so bad I wanna lay you down
Got me trippin, flippin'plans around (So I can chill with you)
Baby listen here can't hold it back gotta (know what I gotta do)

(Chorus)
Something about you gets me so excited
When I'm around you, I just cannot hide it
Try to hold myself, but I just can't fight it
One look in your eyes and baby I'm excited

(Bridge) x4
Look at me it's clear to see

Just wan't to make you scream

Let me make you scream

Something about you gets me so excited
