It’s been about a year now
Ain’t seen or heard from you
Been missing you crazy
How do you do you how do you sleep
I found the letter you wrote me
It still smells just like you
Damn those sweet memories
How do you how do you sleep how do you sleep.

I tried my best at moving on have yet to find a girl like you
I see things that I didn’t before and I’m wishing I had more time with you,
How do you stay awake knowing all I do is think of you
All the things we thought about that never will happen again if I could just see you

If I had my way I’ll getcha girl In your favorite car with the missing top
Around my way where we used to park and did all those things.

It’s been about a year now
Ain’t seen or heard from you
Been missing you crazy
How do you do you how do you sleep
I found the letter you wrote me
It still smells just like you
Damn those sweet memories
How Do You Sleep lyrics found on
How do you how do you sleep how do you sleep. [x2]

Baby all that I hear from my friends again and again (they come and ask about you) (they say) we saw your girl at the game and damn we gotta say a big mistake by you.
Not only does your body bang but I miss the conversation too
Tell me that you couldn’t sleep can’t think can’t eat till I come see you

If I had my way I’ll getcha girl In your favorite car with the missing top around my way where we used to park and did all those things.

It’s been about a year now
Ain’t seen or heard from you
Been missing you crazy
How do you do you how do you sleep
I found the letter you wrote me
It still smells just like you
Damn those sweet memories
How do you how do you sleep how do you sleep

It’s been about a year now
Ain’t seen or heard from you
Been missing you crazy
How do you do you how do you sleep
I found the letter you wrote me
It still smells just like you
Damn those sweet memories
How do you how do you sleep how do you sleep.

Shhh… Kwame did it…

We can never let this get out
Cause’ if my girl would ever find out
She would pack my things and pull me right up out the door
And your not worth losing my house
Or leaving me to sleep on the couch
Cause see, what I got with her is worth so much more

Movin back and forth, not knowing what to do
Just whats at home is just way to much to lose

Its not that you can run, just still can’t make my mind up
What (?) lately with myself
If she run away, away
I want this to go down, you can (???) now
Cause when I’m with you, I only see her face, her face

So I need to think about it, think about it, bout it
Think about it, Think about it, bout it
Over and over again, again
So I need to think about it, think about it, bout it
Think about it, Think about it, bout it
Over and over again, again

And knowing (?we’re not in the bedroom?)
That she won’t leave when she catches
This is way to much pressure, for a man to handle
See I could live with losing you
But losing her, I just couldn’t do
Cause Honestly shes the only girl who makes my house look home

Movin back and forth, not knowing what to do
Just whats at home is just way to much to lose

Its not that you can run, just still can’t make my mind up
What (?) lately with myself
If she ran away, away
I want this to go down, you can (???) now
Cause when I’m with you, I only see her face, her face
So I need to think about it, think about it, bout it
Think about it, Think about it, bout it
Over and over again, again
So I need to think about it, think about it, bout it
Think about it, Think about it, bout it
Over and over again, again

Girl I want you so much
But is it worth losing her love
I need to think about it
Cause I don’t want to break her heart
And she does not deserve this, no
When I think about it

Its not that you can run, just still can’t make my mind up
What (?) lately with myself
If she ran away, away
I want this to go down, you can (???) now
Cause when I’m with you, I only see her face, her face

So I need to think about it, think about it, bout it
Think about it, Think about it, bout it
Over and over again, again
So I need to think about it, think about it, bout it
Think about it, Think about it, bout it
Over and over again, again
Think.

Let me introduce myself for those of y’all who don’t know
It’s me who kicked down the door back in 2004
Thought you knew me when I was bringin’ beautiful soul
That was a preview let me shoot you the first episode
Make ups and break ups yeah I fell in and out of love
Wrote it all down for you to to look it up
21 years hopping in and outta clubs
What would you do in ma shoes you be livin’ it up
But don’t get it twisted
Yeah there’s a piece that you never see
Tryin’ to keep the sh*t from affecting ma whole family
Caught in the middle (Who’s a friend? Who’s an enemy?)
I do what I can cause in the end I’m where I wanna be
I don’t needa talk about it (No) just let the record play
Hate it or love it, it don’t matter cause I’m here to stay
Ladies get yo *** up give it a little shake
And fellas throw yo hands up (up… up… up…).

Baby you’re a star
Unrolling out the red carpet for you on the floor
Cuz independent everything
I’m gonna give you when you come to my door
And I made you the air I’m taking
Without you I’m suffocating I can’t let you go
Cuz everything as I don’t need around me
I’ve been hooked since you found me
Baby look how I’m diving below

Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen yeah
Without you don’t think I can live no
Cuz baby I’m your advocate yeah
Girl you are my oxygen whoa

What good are money and clothes
And million dollar homes
If I ain’t got you around
Cuz see the thought of you gone
Leaving me here all alone
The tears start rollin down
Let me kiss your fingertips and your lips
Baby it’s something I can’t live without
Cuz everyone else around
Don’t mean a thing I got everything I need
Baby in your love I’m swimming out

Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen
Girl you are my oxygen yeah
Without you don’t think I can live no
Cuz baby I’m your advocate yeah
Girl you are my oxygen whoa

One second without you know that I’d die for sure
On depending on you I can’t do this on my own

Everything else I can do without I hope you know
You are my oxygen without you I couldn’t live

Oh who oh who oh who u huh [x2]

Cuz baby I’m your advocate yeah
Girl you are my oxygen whoa

Oxygen oh who Oxygen oh who Oxygen oh who ah huh [x2]

I can’t breathe [x2].

Closed off from love
I didn’t need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know
It you’re frozen

But something happened
For the very first time
With you
My heart melts
Into the ground
Found something true
And everyone’s
Looking round
Thinking I’m going crazy

[Chorus:]
But I don’t care
What they say
I’m in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don’t know
The truth
My heart’s crippled
By the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Trying hard not to hear
But they talk so loud
Their piercing sounds
Fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal
Is to keep me from falling

But nothings greater
Than the rush that comes
With your embrace
And in this
World of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone around me
Thinks
That I’m going crazy
Maybe, maybe

[Chorus]

And it’s draining all of me
Oh, they find it
Hard to believe
I’ll be wearing these scars
For everyone to see.

[Chorus].

Sorry for all the times that he lied
And left your heart hangin’
I can’t imagine what that feels like

But that was another place
And that was another time
It’s not fair to blame me for all his crimes

Just for a minute give me a chance
Let me inside just for a minute
Baby just for a moment
Let me prove I’ll do things right

Let down your guard
And show me your colours
Don’t fight it anymore
Show me you’re with me
Open your arms
I’m not like the others
So don’t fight it anymore no
What will it take for me to make you see
I’m not your enemy

Funny on the day that he left
I wasn’t even there
It’s become a nightmare

But I’ll never rest till you give your all
I’ll take nothing less till I hear happily ever after
The end

Just for a minute give me a chance
Let me inside just for a minute
Baby just for a moment
Let me prove I’ll do things right

Let down your guard
And show me your colours
Don’t fight it anymore
Show me you’re with me
Open your arms
I’m not like the others
So don’t fight it anymore no
What will it take for me to make you see
I’m not your enemy

How do you expect things to get any better
If you keep me on the sideline
Don’t you know there’s a million things I wanna do
But you gotta meet me halfway you gotta try

Let down your guard
And show me your colours
Don’t fight it anymore
Show me you’re with me
Open your arms
I’m not like the others
So don’t fight it anymore no
What will it take for me to make you see
I’m not your enemy.

Now don’t you even act like you don’t wanna get up
You better get out on the dancefloor show me what you got
‘Cause I don’t even want too much just for y’all to understand
A party ain’t a party if I’m not in the party
So I need to see some hands

All I really need to know
Is that you came to the party to enjoy yourself
You left your stress and your worries
Back at home on the shelf
And let’s get freaky hey oh freaky hey oh hey
Freaky hey oh hey freaky hey oh hey freaky freaky

Make sure the DJ puts this song on and turn it up
And keep it movin’ all night long till the sun come up

All I really need to know
Is that you came to the party to enjoy yourself
You left your stress and your worries
Back at home on the shelf
And let’s get freaky hey oh freaky hey oh hey
Freaky hey oh hey freaky hey oh hey freaky freaky
All I really need to know
Is that you came to the party to enjoy yourself
You left your stress and your worries
Back at home on the shelf
And let’s get freaky hey oh freaky hey oh hey
Freaky hey oh hey freaky hey oh hey freaky freaky
And let’s get freaky hey oh hey freaky hey oh hey
Freaky hey oh hey freaky freaky.

Runnin’ away runnin’ away
Hey hey hey runnin’ away

I had the perfect girl we’d spend together hours everyday
You’d say that I had it made and I was all for the commitment
But then she started wantin’ more from me
And my mind began to change suddenly I didn’t feel the same
I didn’t know what I was doing

I was dodging commitment start but don’t finish
My aim was always the same girl I know I been trippin’
I’m confessin’ I’m confessin’ so baby just hear me out
I’m confessin’ I’m confessin’ so baby just see me off
I wanna show my heart but I don’t know where to start

So I keep runnin’
With real love in my face
Why am I breakin’ away
I keep runnin’
So scared of the heartbreak
So scared of makin’ mistakes
I keep runnin’
When all I really need is you
All I really need is you
But I keep on runnin’ away
Hey hey hey

I caught a second wind of happiness when I met this girl
And then we became the best of friends we went
From half full to half empty I took a detour tryin’ to find myself
But I’m on this road again want out of this box I’m in
I made it harder to be with me

I was dodging commitment start but don’t finish
My aim was always the same girl I know I been trippin’
I’m confessin’ I’m confessin’ so baby just hear me out
I’m confessin’ I’m confessin’ so baby just see me off
I wanna show my heart but I don’t know where to start

So I keep runnin’
With real love in my face
Why am I breakin’ away
I keep runnin’
So scared of the heartbreak
So scared of makin’ mistakes
I keep runnin’
When all I really need is you
All I really need is you
But I keep on runnin’ away
Hey hey hey

I’m ’bout to break down baby I’m done
No I can’t keep up runnin’ this marathon
No need to rest when I already won
And if I got you by my side girl I already won

It’s like lookin’ for a treasure when it’s already mine
It don’t make sense don’t make sense
No matter how hard I try to define
I’m comin’ face to face with myself
I know I don’t need don’t need no one else
So can somebody tell me where I’m goin’
So can somebody tell me where I’m goin’

I keep runnin’
With real love in my face
Why am I breakin’ away
I keep runnin’
So scared of the heartbreak
So scared of makin’ mistakes
I keep runnin’
When all I really need is you
All I really need is you
But I keep on runnin’ away
I keep runnin’
With real love in my face
Why am I breakin’ away
I keep runnin’
So scared of the heartbreak
So scared of makin’ mistakes
I keep runnin’
When all I really need is you
All I really need is you
But I keep on runnin’ away
Hey hey hey

Runnin’ away runnin’ away hey hey hey
Runnin’ away runnin’ away hey hey hey.

I know it’s time I need to move on
Everyone is sayin’ I need to control
The way I’m acting
The things that I’m doin’ ain’t good for me

‘Cause I know this time I’m really trippin’
I know that it’s deeper than what I’m feelin’
And I realize she’s bad for my health
But it’s too good just to walk away

She’s got me in a daze she’s got me in a trance
She’s got me so thrown tonight no I need to recover

I keep falling back in love
And I know that this girl
She’s not the one for me
And I know I’m only makin’ it worse
When I let her go then I come on back every time I leave
Every time I leave every time I leave I keep comin’ back
Every time I leave every time I leave every time I leave
I keep comin’ back every time I leave

When I feel like she’s out of that system of hers
Something pulls me in then I return to let her use me
I care not how she do me as long as she’s around

In my mind I see that I’m slippin’
But I still can’t seem to see the difference
My heart is sayin’ yes to go
Body’s sayin’ no to it
I need to get a grip on this

She’s got me in a daze she’s got me in a trance
She’s got me so thrown tonight no I need to recover

I keep falling back in love
And I know that this girl
She’s not the one for me
And I know I’m only makin’ it worse
When I let her go then I come on back every time I leave
Every time I leave every time I leave I keep comin’ back
Every time I leave every time I leave every time I leave
I keep comin’ back every time I leave
I keep falling back in love
And I know that this girl
She’s not the one for me
And I know I’m only makin’ it worse
When I let her go then I come on back every time I leave
Every time I leave every time I leave I keep comin’ back
Every time I leave every time I leave every time I leave
I keep comin’ back every time I leave
Every time I leave every time I leave I keep comin’ back
Every time I leave every time I leave every time I leave
I keep comin’ back every time I leave.

Heeyy.
Ohh oh oh.
Ohh no oh no.
Whooaa oh no
Oh no ohh.
Ohh oh oh
Ohh.

Looking at you now I can tell
That you in your new relationship ain’t going well.
There’s no reason your name should come up on my cell.
Unless your unhappy, but that shouldn’t be the case.
Cause you said, said he was the one baby yes you said,
Said you were in love, cause…

When you left me you said that you wouldn’t be
Coming back remember that, but I never agreed.
I hate to say it but I told you so,
Told you if you left that you were goin be miserable.
Cause he don’t do it like me,
Or else you wouldn’t be
Running back to the past
It was you that left me

I hate to say it but you know I’m right
Everytime you run you’re comin for me late at night.
But right now you ain’t got me.
Tell me where you’re gonna be,
Cause I can’t take you back,
No, my heart won’t let me.

Girl, you know he can’t touch like I do,
I don’t see you trippin or flippin over his moves.
It don’t take a genius to see he ain’t that dude.
But you let him back,
You don’t know what you was on when you said,
Said he was the one, baby yes you said,
Said you were in love, cause…

When you left me you said that you wouldn’t be
Coming back remember that, but I never agreed.
I hate to say it but I told you so,
Told you if you left that you were goin be miserable.
Cause he don’t do it like me,
Or else you wouldn’t be
Running back to the past
It was you that left me

I hate to say it but you know I’m right
Everytime you run you’re comin for me late at night.
But right now you ain’t got me.
Tell me where you’re gonna be,
Cause I can’t take you back,
No, my heart won’t let me.

If there are hard times it seems,
But you ain’t gettin no sympathy,
No baby not from me,
Cause I told you you should never leave.
See you chose this road
So you gotta go it alone
Remember I told you so.

I hate to say it but I told you so,
Told you if you left that you were goin be miserable.
Cause he don’t do it like me,
Or else you wouldn’t be
Running back to the past
It was you that left me

I hate to say it but you know I’m right
Everytime you run you’re comin for me late at night.
But right now you ain’t got me.
Tell me where you’re gonna be,
Cause I can’t take you back,
No, my heart won’t let me.

Can’t take you back, noo.

Ohhhh
Oh no oh, oh
Noo.
