HIP-HOP

HIP-HOP is more than music, HIP-HOP has crossed cultural boundaries that other music genres never crossed. HIP-HOP is not only the music you listen to but the way you walk, talk, dress and act. HIP-HOP is a state of mind, an entire generation. Thirty + years strong, we are the HIP-HOP generation.

Lyrics

I can love you with my eyes closed
I see your heart through a blind fold
I ain’t never ever met another better
So my baby ain’t no way that I’ma let go
From the north to the south pole
On the east or the west coast
Every area code, all over the globe
Ain’t nowhere on the planet you can go that I won’t

From sun up to sun down
I’ll always be around,
Every minute of every hour
Still it ain’t enough time

Cause I got days and days of love, for you boy
And I don’t wanna have to rush
But 24/7 ain’t enough
Cause I got so much love for you boy
I need another hour and a day
So I can love you 25/8, 25/8

You ain’t gotta worry about me, no
Ain’t no question at my loyalty
You been there for me, even when nobody
Cared enough to check and see if I was breathing
See don’t nobody really know me, know me
You and me, we got history
So I give you applause
For loving me boy, put your hand in my hand
I'll lead the way out

From sun up to sun down
I’ll always be around,
Every minute of every hour
Still it ain’t enough time

Cause I got days and days of love, for you boy
And I don’t wanna have to rush
But 24/7 ain’t enough
Cause I got so much love for you boy
I need another hour and a day
So I can love you 25/8,

Can't nobody give me love, give me love
Like I need
See I love the way you make me smile
When things ain’t going right
You know how to hold me tight
Can make the pain go away, yeah

Every day baby, every night baby
On the week day, on any day
On every day, I’m alive baby
I’ma love you, help me sing it out
Every day baby, every night baby
On the week day, on any day
On every day, I’m alive baby
I’ma love you, help me sing it out

Days and days and days of love, for you boy
And I don’t wanna have to rush
But 24/7 ain’t enough
Cause I got so much love for you boy
I need another hour and a day
So I can love you 25/8...








Listen: "Feel Inside" By Mary J. Blige Ft. Nas + Lyrics

Thursday, Mat 24th, 2012

I'm still soundtracking the story of my life today with Mary J. & her latest album. - You know who this one's for.
"I wanna make you happy but you just don't see it / I wanna be around babe but I'm so tired of competing"



My Life II... The Journey Continues (Act 1) | Feel Inside | Mary J. Blige | Nas 

Audio




Lyrics

[Intro: Mary]
Turn the track up a little bit
We need to rock in here

I wanna make you happy

[Verse 1: Nas]
I'm not at all happy or elated, this category ain't my favorite
It's my story, I'mma state it, you could love it or hate it
I'm just a misfit blessed with good dick and intelligence
Hood nigga holding no grudges on petty shit
I started, why are we cold-hearted, so guarded
Scared to get hurt, trying not to love the hardest
That's garbage, remember when we loved each other
Bathtub scrubbed each other, chillin', champagne spillin'
Uh, feelin' like the shit gon' last forever
Time went so fast, we had a blast together
Laughs we had, friends we spent time with
Now I be seeing your friends out, then I'm reminded
How we all used to gather up for the holidays
Now your friends all nervous to speak, they act afraid
I was your bestie, how it get to this
As I reminisce, takin' off my MJs in my empty crib
Mary...

[Verse 2: Mary]
I wanna make you happy
But you just don't see it
I wanna be around, babe
But I'm so tired of competing
We say all the wrong things
Till we make each other cry
What are we doing?
Will it ever get better?
My heart, my soul
I gave, it's yours
I can't get back
All the things that I lost
Boy, I love you
But you're pushing me away

[Hook: Mary]
I gave you everything that I got
Watched my feelings walk on by
Ever get sick of trying?
This is how I feel inside

[Verse 3: Mary]
Now I was hoping
We'd get through this together
You said you'd love me
Through all types of stormy weather
Wasn't it you who said
We'd be together for all time
But it keeps messing with my mind
My heart, my soul
I gave, it's yours
I can't get back
All the things that I lost
I need you here near me
But I can't make you stay

[Hook]

[Bridge: Mary]
I never thought that I would have this feeling
Do you think for once that you can truly mean it
Wasting so much time disagreeing
See, I'm to the point where I don't know what I believe in

[Verse 4: Nas & Mary]

[Nas]
If you don't want this, I don't want this, I do my morning crunches
Play my jazz, pray to the east, and watch the sunset
Uh, but yet I was blowin' you up the other night
Could tell your girl was telling you what to write back
Tell me why it's like that

[Mary]
So make up your mind, boy decide
We can't go on like this, this ain't right (it ain't right)
Feeling really bad, feeling kinda low
Think it's time to go

[Hook]

Lyrics


I'mma love you anyway [3x]

Look how the tables turn
You're at a loss for words
Just let it go
It's been too long for us to let it burn
I know you're mad right now
But we're gonna talk this out
Better or worse, that's what we said
So there's no walkin' out

We don't always see eye to eye
I can be wrong
You can be right
Just couldn't find cause it is weren't the fight

Whatever it's gonna take
We gon' try
I've got your heart
And you've got mine
So there's no saying goodbye

No matter how we work it out, Work it out, Work it out
Cause love is irreversible versible versible
No matter how hard we try
There just ain't no rewind
You can't go back in time
Cause love is irreversible versible versible

I get emotional
Sometimes you treat me cold
But love's still here, won't disappear, Can't let it take control
We may just lose our way
When we communicate
Can't nothing come between you and me
We're of forever faith

We don't always see eye to eye
I've got your heart
And you've got mine
So there's no saying goodbye

No matter how we work it out, Work it out, Work it out
Cause love is irreversible versible versible
No matter how hard we try
There just ain't no rewind
We can't go back in time
Cause love is irreversible versible versible

I'm gon' love you anyway (anyway), Anyway babe (anyway), I'm gon love you, yea(anyway)
I'm gon' love you anytime (anyway), Anyday (anyway)
So let's try to make it right

No matter how we work it out, Work it out, Work it out
Cause love is irreversible versible versible
There just ain't no rewind
We can't go back in time
Cause love is irreversible, Versible, Versible

Lyrics

[Mary J Blige]
I’ve been logging in my bed, running til my eyes are red
We both said that things will change
But it’s still the same shade of gray
I get mad you walk away
When it all just start to fade
I know you’re fed up so am I
But we just can’t say goodbye
Boy, you know I love
But I just can’t go on no more
Feelin this way

[Chorus]
You got me sayin’ why, why, why?
Can’t we get it right?
Just can’t get it right
Don’t know why, why, why?
Can’t we get it right
No matter how hard we try

[Rick Ross]
I got her looking at me sideways
Live every night like it’s a Friday
My conversations are so monumental
Licking on her ear, I’m whispering a couple riddles
She fell in love with my technique
I made her call me boss when in the bedsheets
We both coming from the same place
All in her both coming at the same place
Still on my dope boy swag
Top down on my Cam’ron, Oh boy swag
Played the hand we were dealt from the beginning, baby
You the dealer, cut the deck, while we winning baby

[Chorus]
Got me sayin’ why, why, why?
Can’t we get it right?
Just can’t get it right
Don’t know why, why, why?
Can’t we get it right
No matter how hard we try

[Mary J Blige]
Can’t we turn love around
We build it up to break it down
If you knew the way I feel
You would know that this love is real
But live in heaven, go to hell then
Go right back, across the lesson
Tired of stressin’, get the message
I can’t live in this depression no more
Boy, you know I love you
But I just can’t go on feeling like this no more

[Chorus]
Got me sayin’ why, why, why?
Can’t we get it right?
Just can’t get it right
Don’t know why, why, why?
Can’t we get it right
No matter how hard we try

Back on my own again…


"Love A Woman" By Mary J. Blige Featuring Beyonce



Audio




Lyrics

[Chorus]
So you think you know how to love a woman
But I think there's still some things you need to know
So you think you know how to love a woman
Well I feel there's still some things you need to know
And you need to know

[Mary J. Blige]
A woman
She needs more than material things
A woman
Needs so much more than what a man can say

[Beyonce]
A woman
Needs you to make love to her, she needs more than sex
Oh, a real woman needs a real man
That don't talk about it, be about it
Put that work in, still shows his woman real romance

[Chorus]
So you think you know how to love a woman
But I think there's still some things you need to know
So you think you know how to love a woman
But I feel there's still some things you need to know
Things you need to know

[Beyonce]
A woman
She likes to talk, and work it out
A woman
Likes for you to watch her back, protect her crown

[Mary J. Blige]
A woman
dont only want your make up sex
She wants your respect
And a real woman never wanna walk
Into a room, see another woman
Knowing information she don't even know about her man

[Chorus]
So you think you know how to love a woman

But I think there's still some things you need to know
So you think you know how to love a woman
But I feel there's still some things you need to know
that you need to know

[Beyonce and Mary - Bridge]
Make your way home
At a decent hour everynight
pick up your phone
Just to say you're still in love from time to time
Remind her, that she's still beautiful in your eyes
And ride with your woman,
Make her feel that you're always on her side
When she cries,
Ask her what she's feeling
Let her know you sympathize
Gotta swallow your pride
Got some making up to do, gotta make it right
Kiss her real slow and get down and blow her mind
Got to take your time
I say, Kiss her real slow and get down and blow her mind
Say it one more time, Say it one more time
Kiss her real slow and get down and blow her mind
Got to take your time
Don't no want minute man
We wanna have fun til she finish man
But that's asking too much
You never know how to be…
Love a woman…

[Chorus]
Boy you think you know how to love a woman
But I think there's still some things you need to know
So you think you know how to love a woman
But I think there's still some things you need to know
Things you need to know
You think you know how to love a woman
