Mariah carey featuring bone thugs-n-harmony |
|
[birds chirping.] |
|
Layzie: |
|
Over, over. don't break down yet, it's over. |
|
Over, over. don't break down yet, it's over. |
|
Over, over. |
|
Wish: |
|
Steady breakin' me on down. |
|
Mariah: |
|
Oooh. |
|
Wish: |
|
Break, breakdown. steady breakin' me on down. |
|
Break, breakdown. steady breakin' me on down. |
|
Mariah: |
|
You called yesterday to basically say that you care for me, but that you're |
|
Just not in love. |
|
Immediately, i pretended to be feeling similarly, and led you to believe i was |
|
O.k. to just walk away from the one thing that's unyeilding and sacred to me. |
|
Mariah: |
|
Well, i guess i'm trying to be nonchalant about it, and i'm going to extremes |
|
To prove i'm fine without you, but in reality i'm slowly losing my mind |
|
Underneath the guise of a smile. gradually, i'm dying inside. friends ask me |
|
How i feel, and i lie convincingly, 'cause i don't want to reveal the fact that |
|
I'm suffering, so i wear my disguise 'til i go home at night, and turn down all |
|
The lights, and then i break down and cry. |
|
Mariah: |
|
So what do you do when somebody you're so devoted to suddenly just stops loving |
|
You? and it seems they haven't got a clue of the pain that rejection is putting |
|
You through. do you cling to your pride and sing "i will survive?" [krayzie: |
|
Gotta get control and roll, roll, roll on.] do you lash out and say, "how dare |
|
You leave this way?" do you hold on in vain as they just slip away? |
|
Mariah: |
|
Well, i guess i'm trying to be nonchalant [wish: break, breakdown. steady |
|
Breakin' me on down.] about it, and i'm going to extremes to prove i'm fine |
|
Without you, but in reality i'm slowly losing my mind underneath the guise of a |
|
Smile. gradually, i'm dying inside. friends ask me how i feel, and i lie |
|
Convincingly, 'cause i don't want to reveal the fact that i'm suffering, so i |
|
Wear my disguise 'til i go home at night, and turn down all the lights, and |
|
Then i break down and cry. |
|
Wish: |
|
Gonna break ya down, down, down, only if ya let it [don't let it.]. everyday |
|
Crazy situations rockin' my mind tryin' to break me down, but i won't let it. |
|
Forget it. if ya feel the same way that i do, then let me help y'all, all |
|
Singin' tunes, sayin' "it's all right, it's all right, it's all right, yeah." |
|
Hopin' for the sun, but it looks like rain, p.o.d'ed, but it's still the same. |
|
Came far, but it's been a long road. trouble's gonna come but we gotta stay |
|
Strong. hold on. |
|
Krayzie: |
|
Aw, yeah, i often feel the pressures, y'all, but nevertheless krayzie won't |
|
Fall. it's over. it's endin' here [here]. i said it's over. it's endin' here |
|
[here], so i'll be on my way, and maybe we can meet up in the future one day, |
|
But for now i'm bailin', bailin'. bailin', baby, gotta get up, can't take no |
|
More. i'm headed for the door, come and take a look into a thug humble eye. |
|
Tell me: if we lived a lie, would our souls unite? |
|
Layzie: |
|
Every new day is a test for me, so i just pray the lord for him to bless me, |
|
Please. there's struggles i'm goin' through lately, breaks me down, set me |
|
Free. let me be. let me be. who else do i have to rely on? whose shoulder can a |
|
Thug go cry on? can i get my vibe on? while you look into my eyes, you won't |
|
Underestimate, and this soldier story, i'm'a tell you right now i'm fed up. |
|
Wrong if i let my lead bust? hard to keep your head up. don't let this world |
|
Get the best of you, i'm a stress you through it, if it's over, over, over. |
|
Don't breakdown yet, it's over. |
|
Mariah: |
|
Well, i guess i'm trying to be nonchalant about it, and i'm going to extremes |
|
To prove i'm fine without you, but in reality i'm slowly losing my mind |
