R&B: Soul - music style - song text

[Verse 1]
I couldn’t fall asleep late last night, thinkin’ what we had just might be all over baby
And I don’t know if you meant what you said when you told me you was sick of tryin’, you was
sick of fightin’, cryin’, lyin’ and didn’t wanna do this again
We may have said some things, we may have did some things, we should’ve never did
But we both know it takes more just to apologize, boy
But from what I’m feelin’ inside, boy I’m yours, and boy you’re mine
And even if I said I was leavin’ babe, I couldn’t picture no more you and me
See, I ain’t perfect babe, and you ain’t perfect baby, so listen to the realest thing that I
can say

[Chorus]
Sometimes it’s a struggle babe, and it only hurts cause I love you baby
And for what it’s worth, I will struggle babe, cause I wanna be in your life, so I’mma keep
tryin’
Over and over and over and over again, over and and over and over again
(Til we get it right baby)
Over and over and over and over again

[Verse 2]
See, we done been together for a few years now, and ain’t no way we just gon sit right here
and throw it out
See even if it’s my mistake, or if it’s your mistake, and we would scream and shout
You gotta know I love you babe, and I’mma show you babe, we can work this out
So many nights when we would tear rooms up in this house
And we both know, we’re both wrong - what is this about?
But when I look into your eyes, I’m in your heart, and you are in mine
Even if I said I was leavin’ babe, I couldn’t picture no more you and me
See, I ain’t perfect babe, and you ain’t perfect baby, so listen to the realest thing that I can say

[Chorus]
Sometimes it’s a struggle babe, and it only hurts cause I love you baby
And for what it’s worth, I will struggle babe, cause I wanna be in your life, so I’mma keep tryin’
Over and over and over and over again, over and and over and over again
(Til we get it right baby)
Over and over and over and over again

[Bridge]
Said I don’t wanna be alone baby, cause you are everything I know baby
See, you’re everything I need, and you’re everything I see, and you’re everything I feel, and
you’re everything in me

Said I don’t wanna be alone baby, cause you are everything I know baby
See, you’re everything I need, and you’re everything I see, and you’re everything I feel, and
you’re everything in me

[Chorus]
Sometimes it’s a struggle babe, and it only hurts cause I love you baby
And for what it’s worth, I will struggle babe, cause I wanna be in your life, so I’mma keep tryin’
Over and over and over and over again, over and and over and over again
(Til we get it right baby)
Over and over and over and over again

[Breakdown]
Over and over and over and over and over and over, over agai..yayi..yayi…yayi.
Said, I don’t wanna be without you bae, cause I love you babe.
Said, I wanna be in your life, so I’mma keep tryin’
Over and over, and over and over and over and over, over again
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, said I love you babe. I don’t wanna see you leave me baby
Hold on…baby, just hold on. Mmmhmmm, cause all I need is you..

[Verse 1]
I must admit I was set trippin’, early on
So not my self, boy you had me completely gone
I lost my cool when I found out ’bout you
And how cowardly you move, I’m just glad that now I’m through
I’m so over you

[Chorus]
I am finished cryin over your lyin’, over denyin’, I am so over you, so over you
Said I’m finished with it, ain’t no more hurtin’ over here
I done lost my cool for just a minute, but I’m back and I’m doin my thing again
Said I’m finished with it, ain’t no more hurtin’ over here
And I got my mind right, ain’t no more late nights waitin’ up on ya

I’m so over you, over you, over you, over you, over you now
I’m so over you, over you, over you, over you, over you now
I’m so over you

[Verse 2]
Now we done been through this same cycle, time and time
Let you back in even when you broke this heart of mine
I’ve had enough, boy I swear this time I’m done
You can pack up all your stuff, frankly I don’t give a f*ck
I’m so over you

[Chorus]
I am finished cryin over your lyin’, over denyin’, I am so over you, so over you
Said I’m finished with it, ain’t no more hurtin’ over here
I done lost my cool for just a minute, but I’m back and I’m doin my thing again
Said I’m finished with it, ain’t no more hurtin’ over here
And I got my mind right, ain’t no more late nights waitin’ up on ya
I’m so over you, over you, over you, over you, over you now
I’m so over you, over you, over you, over you, over you now

[Bridge]
I got my swagga back again, and no, I’m not tryna be your friend
And no, ain’t no hittin’ this again
Ain’t no late nights waitin’ up on ya, cause I’m so over you

Said I’m finished with it, ain’t no more hurtin’ over here
I done lost my cool for just a minute, but I’m back and I’m doin my thing again
Said I’m finished with it, ain’t no more hurtin’ over here
And I got my mind right, ain’t no more late nights waitin’ up on ya

Said I’m finished with it, ain’t no more hurtin’ over here
I done lost my cool for just a minute, but I’m back and I’m doin my thing again
Said I’m finished with it, ain’t no more hurtin’ over here
And I got my mind right, ain’t no more late nights waitin’ up on ya.

[Verse 1]
It’s killin’ me to think that you don’t want it no more
I should’ve learned my lesson when you f*cked up before
You said some things (I said some things) seems like this thing is over
Cause you ain’t call, since you’ve been gone

[Pre Chorus]
But I ain’t gonna stress about it anymore
And I ain’t gonna cry another night, no
You’re gonna miss this chick right here
You’re gonna miss this chick, I swear

[Verse 2]
I hate to admit it, my heart was all in it
Like a fatal attraction happened, cause now it’s killin’ me
I can’t eat, I can’t sleep, I can’t breathe
I just want you back with me baby

I can’t help but think that when your love is gone
I’m gonna find it hard to keep myself from holdin’ on
And when I try to justify what you did wrong
It’s like I’m constantly reminded that I can’t move on

[Pre Chorus]
But I ain’t gonna stress about it anymore
And I ain’t gonna cry another night, no
You’re gonna miss this chick right here
You’re gonna miss this chick, I swear

[Bridge]
I’m tired of thinkin’ that we could’ve made it, my heart keeps on achin
And I just can’t take it, hey
I feel so weak (I can’t breathe) I just want you back with me baby

I can’t help but think that when your love is gone
I’m gonna find it hard to keep myself from holdin’ on
And when I try to justify what you did wrong
It’s like I’m constantly reminded that I can’t move on

[Pre Chorus/Chorus]
See ain’t nobody’s out there like mine, you’re in it for the very last time
You’re gonna miss this chick right here, you’re gonna miss this I swear

But I ain’t gonna stress about it anymore
And I ain’t gonna cry another night, no
You’re gonna miss this chick right here
You’re gonna miss this chick, I swear.

[Chorus:]
After all of the times that we tried,
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made,
I Know Now you don’t love me the same

The way that I love
(The way that I love you)

The way that I love
(The way that I love you)

The way that I love
(The way that I love you)

[Verse 1]
I woke up kinda early today, and something told me from that moment it wouldn’t be the same
Felt like you were hidin’ something, but I didn’t push it,
I didn’t complain or say nothing
I tried to play like I didn’t see it,
’cause deep down I know I didn’t wanna believe it
There it was, it was you and her,
you left your sidekick on the night stand and I read

[Pre-Hook]
Everything you did and everything you said,
now I’m standin’ here lookin’ like damn
I thought it was you and I,
now all I gotta say is why

[Chorus]

[x3]
The way that I love
(The way that I love you)

[Verse 2]
I noticed now that when I’m around, you be tryin’ to lock the door, whispering on the phone
Now wait a minute,
since we been in this house you ain’t never did this before, tell me what’s this about..
(What’s this about)
I tried to sit and say to myself,
this here is too good, he don’t want nothin’ else

There it was, it was you and her,
you left the credit card receipt inside the beamer with

[Pre-Hook]
Everything you bought
And everything you spent, now I’m standing here
once again I thought it was you and I,
now all I have to say is why

[Chorus]

[x3]
The way that I love
(The way that I love you)

Oh Oh
You lied
You lied
Oh why
Why
Yes
Why’d you have to lie to me
Why’d you have to lie to me-e
Why’d you have to lie to me
Why, why, why, why
You lied, you lied, you lied
We made, we made, we made
Oh.

It’s been about 4 years now
I’ve been through a lot
I’ve experienced life
I’ve experienced death
I felt pain I never felt before
I’ve been on top
I’ve experienced not being on top
So when they ask me
What am I declaring?
I’m declaring me
I am… the declaration.

[Verse 1:]
I’m hoping that this ain’t too hard to believe.
Cause baby you’re the only one for me.
I know it gets hard when I’m moving in and out of state.
But I promise my heart for you I would save.
Just remember that…

[Chorus:]
No matter how far I go.
(Go)
And no matter how long it takes.
(Takes)
No one or nothing can change.
(Change)
Forever yours.
Here I stand.
(Stand)
Here I stand baby.

[Verse 2:]
You’re like a mirror to my soul.
But a queen.
(My queen)
And finally now I know just what that means.
Oh yeah.
You’re the blessing I never thought I would get.
And to the Lord I humbly bow my head.
Just remember that…

[Chorus:]
No matter how far I go.
(Go)
And no matter how long it takes.
(Takes)
No one or nothing can change.
(Change)
Forever yours.
Here I stand.
(Stand)

[Bridge:]
Every since you came…
(Since you came along)
It seems like…
(Couldn’t get it right)
Yeah, I felt I sunk so low that there was no way I could be found.
(Never thought love would find me)
And when we make love…
(Everytime you give)
Ohh…
(Give to me your love)
Give…
You make me feel a way I’ve never felt with no one else.
And I can’t help myself.
I’m telling you that…

[Chorus:]
No matter how far I go.
(Go)
Hey…
See, no matter how long it takes, yeah.
(Takes)
No one or nothing, nothing baby.
(Change)
Never change the way I feel.
I’m your man.
Listen, see forever yours.
Yours.
All yours.
Here I stand.
(Stand)
Hey.

[Chorus:]
No matter how far I go.
And no matter how long it takes.
No one or nothing can change.
Forever yours.
I’ll remain.
Here I stand.

And I promise that I’m gonna keep it coming all night long.

[Pre-chorus:]
Looking in your eyes,
While you’re on the other side,
(And I think that shorty I gotta thing for you)
You keep doing it on purpose, wind it and work it.
I can tell by the way that you’re looking at me, girl.

[Chorus:]
I wanna make love in this club.
In this club
In this club
In this club
I wanna make love in this club.
In this club
In this club

Listen, if you got some friends rolling with you - that’s cool.
You can leave them with my niggas, let them know that I got you.
If you didn’t know, you’re the only thing that’s on my mind.
’cause the way I’m staring at you got me wanting to give it to you all night.

[Pre-chorus 2:]
Looking in your eyes,
While you’re on the other side,
(I can’t take it no more baby I’m coming for you)
You keep doing it on purpose, wind it and work it.
If you told our eyes it’d just be me and you

[Chorus x2]

[Young Jeezy]
I’m what you want, I’m what you need.
He got to trap, I’ll set you free,
Sexually, mentally, physically, emotionally,
I’ll be like your medicine, you’ll take every dose of me.
It’s going down on isle 3, I’ll bag you like some groceries.
And every time you think about it, you’re gonna want some more of me.
About to hit the club make a movie yeah rated R.
Pull up like a Trap Star. That’s if you had…
Have you ever made love to a thug in a club with his sights on, 87 jeans and a fresh pair of Nike’s on.
On the couch, on the table, on the bar, on the floor.
You can meet me in the bathroom, you know I’m trained to go.

Might as well give me a kiss, if we keep touching like this
I know you’re scared, baby, they don’t know what we’re doing.
Let’s both get undressed right here, keep it up girl, and, I swear.
I’m gonna give it to you non-stop.
And I don’t care, who’s watching.

[Chorus till fade].

A lil extra in it man

Usher:

Through your mind

Every man in here

For somebody
For one night
Your friends
Drug you out
Cause you
Ain’t wanna come
That’s why
Your standin there
Actin stuck up
Holdin’ up the wall
You got
A misconception of men
Thinkin’ were
All the same
Full of games
All because you ended up
With the wrong one

Chorus:
I bet you think
That chivalry is gone
Guess you
Ain’t seen nothing
Like it in so long
It’s when you open
Her door or come?
You give her your coat
When it’s cold outside
A man ain’t a man
Until hes been
To his woman
Compliments
And flowers
Really
Let’s her know
That you want her
Let me spell it out
C-h-i-v-a-l-r-y
Girl
If you feel
Like chivalry
Is gone girl
Ima change your mind

Usher:

Why did i pick you
Well

And i was wonderin
Whats your anatomy
How you gon a-c-t
When i see your?
And ask you
What it do
And her reply
Was s-o double r-y
Thanks
For the compliment
But i gotta
Let you know
I’m probably
Not your type
You got
A misconception of me
Listen
And i’ll make you see
Don’t let one b-a-d
A double p-l-e
Spoil it
For the bunch

(Chorus)

Jermaine Dupri:
Now this ain’t
For everybody man
So don’t get twisted
On what i’m sayin’
If you wit somebody
Right now
but you feel
That they playin’
Then i know
That you understand
How it feel
When you talk for hours
Show up at the door
Wit some flowers
When you put
A lil extra in it
Man it give you
Just a lil more power
Most of us
Go the extra mile
To get what even though
It ain’t our style
The stuff
I’m talkin
Most ain’t seen
Or heard since
They was just
A lil child
I’m tryna show you how
To really get her on
I’m tryna show you how
To really get her home
I’m tryna show you
How to have
Shorty mind
All messed up
In the zone
Just tell her i

(Chorus).
